STOCK PRICES HIGH
sHoIiN LAMBS SELL AT $3.50 IN
PORTLAND YARDS.

(Courtesy Wednesdays Journal)
PORTLAND, ore. The sale Of a
bunch Of shorn lambs this morning at
North Portland at $3.50 was consld-
cred a very remarkable sale IN the
local yards and, considering the fact
that the stock was shorn, indicated a
price of fully 1926 or &7.35 for wool
offerings OF equal quality. This real
ly means that the mutton and lamb
market has again been marked sharp
ly higher.
There was a fair run OF mutton and
lambs in the yards over night at
North Portland but the trade has
been so famished that the supplies
were quickly snapped up by buyers.
General mutton market range:
Best yearlings ...,.....;6.65 a 5.75
Old wethers ............ b.00W 5.25
Best ewes ........... 425@L75
Best east mountain lambs 6.75 0T0O
Valley light lambs ... 6.25 W6.5O
Heavy spring lambs 80. 5.50Q5.75
Cattle Continue Scarce.
Offerings OF cattle continue scarce
in the North Portland yards There
was only a small volume reported in
the yards overnight Condition OF
the market here continues weak. This
Is just about the same as the showing
at other stockyard markets through
out the country at this time. Cattle
that are good enough to bring s7.25
here are really selling for more mon
ey than they would In the east. not
withstanding the higher top prices
quoted at some points. Latest mail
advices from the east indicate that
western cattle such as arrive here,
would sell in the Chicago or Omaha
parkkets around 1915 for extreme
tcps.

SENATE REJECTED
 THE CHOCTAW BILL
LIVELY DEBATE ENSUES BE- TWEEN OKLAHOMA AND MIS-
 SlSSlPPi DELEGATIONS.

Washington, D. C., July 7.-After a day of lively debate between Okla homa and Mississippi delegations the house tonight rejected senate amendment to the Indian appropria- tion bill to permit the Mississippi Choctaws to present their claims for participation in the funds of the Choctaw Indians of Oklahoma. The question goes to conference between the two houses.
 The Oklahomans charged attorneys were trying to get big fees by drum ming up claimants in Mississippi while the Mississippi representatives alleged that Oklahoma had mistreat ed the Indians of the west.
 Representative Ferris of Oklahoma said he held in his hand "a document which shows that firm of attorneys in St. Louis employed three negroes to go around with an alleged ficti tious roll and make people believe they were Indians so they could ge on the rolls. saying Sign this con tract, we will enroll you and we vii go to congress and you will get sS, 600 less 40 per cent for attorney fees"

conference. but Mir. Douglas made this statement:
 "l have every reason to believe after troubles between Villa and Car ranza are settled delegates from the constitutionalists will be named to meet with Huerta delegates to dis cuss the formation of provisional government in Mexico
 Mir. Zubaran and Mir. Cabrera are known to have favored the proposed joint conference between the Mexi- can factions. Mr. Calderon has not been so favorably inclined, but today for the first time since his arrival in Washington he met in joint confer ence with Carranzas personal repre- sentatives. With them was Juan F. Urqudi, secretary of the constith- tionalist junta, who has just returned from confidential mission to the Mexican border.
 Mutiny among Mexican federal sol diers near American outposts at Vera Cruz was a subject of interest in American official quarters. Several messages from General Funston re- ported that fighting between the fed erals and mutineers was in progress. The Mexican federal commander pre- viously had warned General Funston that the mutineers had threatened to attack the American lines. An ele- ment of humor was injected into the situation when report of the revolu- tionary junta at Vera Cruz asked General Funston for permission to go out and direct the mutiny. Officials here see danger for General Huerta should the mutiny cut off his exit from Mexico City. His early depart ure is assumed in official circles, but if the mutineers triumph, it is pointed out that Huerta scarcely could ex- pect safe conduct to the gulf coast.
 Some fifty Spanish subjects from different points in Mexico yesterday left Monterey on their way to Spain via Tampico.

WESTERN BANKS
 NEED CHANGES
STATES ARE RECOMMENDED TO MAKE NEW LAWS BEFORE
 NEW SYSTEM IS IN EFFECT.
Speaker at Bank Supervisors Con vention Says the Day of the Pri- vate Bank is Numbered.

Atlantic City, N. J., July Yves tern states must made radical changes in their banking laws before the new currency system canbe come generally effective, according to speakers at the annual convention of the National Association of Su pervisors of State Banks here today It was pointed out that banking laws of several western commonwealths forbid the investment of funds ot state chartered banks in stocks of any description and this conflict be. tween federal and state banking laws will be one of the matters taken up when the banking supervisors meet members of the federal reserve board in Washington Thursday.
 A fature of the days session was an attack by Edward II. Doyle, bank ing commissioner for Michigan, on laws that permit private banks.
 No one will deny that the days of the private banks are numbered, i" said Mir. Doyle. Their number is steadily decreasing and in some states they have been abolished, while in others they are supervised to q greater or less extent. The abolishing of private banks will work no hardship to those who are solvent but it will put the private banker who is on the verge of bankruptcy out of business"
 The commissioners agreed that legislation of the blue sky" order should be made uniform throughout the country and that it should be made to apply to "get rich quick" concerns and not interfere with le- gitimate business in high grade stocks and bonds.

ROOSEVELT WILL
 RESUME ACTIVITY
WILL EMERGE FROM EXCLUSION OF SYCAMORE HILL AND BE
 GIN POLITICAL WORK.
Meeting of New York Leaders Will Decide His Candidacy For Gov ernor of Empire State.

Oyster Bay, N. Y., July 7.-Theo- dOre Roosevelt tomorrow will emerge from the seclusion of Sagamore Hill, where he has been shut up for a week by his doctors orders, and again take up active political work. Early ia the day he will go to New York for q meeting with state lead CTS of the progressives.
 The selection of a nominee for gov ernor will be brought up again in the hope of deciding whether Colonel Roosevelt will run. It was believed tonight, however, that no settlement of this question tomorrow would be possible. as Colonel Roosevelt has not learned whether he would be physically able to make the cam paign.
 Another complication which prob ably will delay matters is the recent proposition that the progressives and independent democrats cooperate. Colonel Roosevelt is expected to tell his associates the result of his re- cent talk on the political situation with Mayor Mitchell of New York and to give his views on the feasibility of coalition in the state campaign.

WILSON URGES
 WARBURG TO STAY
INSISTS THAT NEW YORK BANK FER REMAIN NOMINEE FOR RE
 SERVE BOARD POSITION.
Confirmation of Jones of Chicago is Still Hanging Fire, Although Pres ident Urges 1t.

Washington, D. C., July With President Wilson urging Paul NJ. Warburg. the New York banker, to reconsider his request that his noml- nation as a member of the federal re- serve board be withdrawn, it was reported tonight in circles close to the white house that there was pos sibility of Warburg's changing his mind.
 MT, Warburg and the presidents secretary, Mir. Humility, talked over the telephone late today and Mir. Warburg then expressed his determi- nation not to take the place. Later, President Wilson telegraphed urging him to reconsider.
 Despite opposition to Mir. Warburg, friends of the president have assured him the New York bankers nomina- tion can be confirmed The presi- dent is said to believe he will have a hard time finding another man as familiar with foreign banking condi- tions who will accept the place. Members of the senate banking committee today considered MT. War burg finally had eliminated himself by his telegram to Chairman Hitch cocok declinin gto submit to ques- tioning by the committee. In this message Mir. Warburg said he felt
 the committees holding up of his ap- pointment and one other, while three others were confirmed, would impair his usefulness as member of the
 bHard. It was said if the nomination
 were not withdrawn the commit se likely would insist on the banker appearance for examination.
 ! No action has been taken on the I nomination of Thomas D. Jones of Chicago, who yesterday told the com
 mittee of his connection with the
 International Harvester Company
 The president is insistent on con.
 firmation and there has been no sug. gestion that Mr. Jones' nomination would be withdrawn.

Plea to Washinaton.

Washington, ID. C., July 7.-An ap- peal for the protection of Juan Ve- lasco came to the state department
 today through the Massachusetts
 delegation in tho house but the de- | partment delayed action to ascertain ! if Velasco is an American citizen. | Velasco Is believed to be a Mexican,
 in which case all the government can 1 do is to make an appeal for fair
 treatment for him in the name of humanity, if any means can be found addressing Zapata.
 Heretofore it has not been found
 possible to do this. owing to the fact
 that the state department has no consular officers in the part of Mex ico where Zapatistas are operating. Juan Velasco, who was executed by Zapatistas near Atlixco, Mexico,
 today was owner and manager of
 the Spanish Cotton Mannfacturing
 Company at Puebla, and of sugar
 plantation.
 According to John E. Furnans of New Bedford, Velasco's agent in this country, who sought the good offices
 O. the United States government in
 his behalf today, Velasco was rated at several times a millionaire. Fur
 mans said tonight that Velasco's hrother-in-law and business associate died mysteriously several months ago.
 Velasco had communicated to Fur
 mans his fear that ahe would be cap tured by Zapata and his followers, who he said were endeavoring to ex- tort his fortune from him.
