Butter viii Advance.

Portland, Ore, Nov. l9.-Much
strength is shown in the market FOR
creamery butter and the best grade Of
storage stocks. An early advance in
the former is quite probable, according
TO leaders of the trade here, because
present output is somewhat limited.
The extraordinary strength in all
American markets for storage butter is
one Of the leading factors in strength
ening the situation in the fresh make.
Eastern markets are reported more
bare of storage goods than for many
years at this period. Lack OF foreign
shipments due to war conditions, have
cauacd shortage here unexpected. TO.
day no shipments from abroad have
been received in the local market this
season, and according to leading in
terests there are no prospects for i'm
mediate supplies from New Zealand.
Notwithstanding all tnis strength in
the position of the fresh and storage
creamery butter market, much weakness
continues for dairy stock, and the trade
here is still unable to find a suitable
market for It's offerings at outside
points.
Potatoes Arc Weak.
Extreme weakness is still showing
for potatoes in the local territory,

NEW ORLEANS. March 3.-Sir Lionel Garden, former British ambas- sador to Mexico, who has been re- lieyed and will take another post for his government, reached this city en route to Washington for conference with the British ambassador to the United States.
 In an interview given out today Sir Lionel stated that the refusal of Gen. Carranza to allow the United States government to investigate the death of William s. Benton. the Enlishman murdered by Gen. Villa, was brazen effrontery to the people of the United States and that the English govern ment was determined that they would investigate the death of an English citizen and demand redress if the killing was not justifiable.
 England will never allow the pay ment of an indemnity for the purpose of flushing the matter and will con- tinue to insist that the murderers of Benton shall pay the price of their crime" said the former ambassador.
