Route of New Railway.

From New Meadows to Lewiston via
Salmon and Snike rivers is the most
practicable route for north and south
railroad in Idaho, in the opinion of the
public utilities commission. Such a
road would be about 172 miles long
and cost $12,9OO,OOO, exclusive of the
equipment.
Other routes are from New Mead
ows to Fem via Whitebird and Rocky
canyon and from New Meadows to
Sites via Slate creek. The Lewiston
road is estimated by the commission
to be the most expensive, but is be-
lieved to be the best in that it serves
more country and would be more de-
sirable from an operating standpoint.
Considerable attention was paid by
the commission to the country to be
served and they expressed in their
report the opinion that vast and
rich country would be opened and
developed by the construction of such
a road

increase considerable. The wool mar

or wool this week.
Berries-The recent rains have had
tendency to retard the movement of
the strawberry crop, but receipts have
been adequate for requirements, and
the market is holding firmer with
quotations this week at $2@2.25. With
the advent of warmer weather receipts
from local points should begin to move

ply are to be had at present and
should soon be plentiful.

Wheat-S tagnation has been the
most pronounced feature in the export
grain situation. There is very little
local interest in the situation. Stocks
have been we'll reduced, and demands
are without representative dimensions,
owing to the fact that deliveries are
practically out of the question. The
trend of values has been lower during
the past two weeks, local questions
being nominally off &c and sc, with
bluestem quoting at $1.15 and club at
$1.1O.
Receipts have been light for some
time, the total of tidewater movement
for May being out 625 cars for Ia
coma, Seattle and Portland, bring ag
gregate deliveries for the season to
date to 32,65O cars, or approximately
| 37,500,000 bushels. Crop reports gen
orally hold favorable, although warm
er weather in coast sections is needed
to bring the grain to maturity.
Flour-The market is holding with
out any material change. Patents
have not fiuctuated since the decline
of two weeks ago, and demands are
holding at a basis of current require
ments, with no new business being
worked for out shipment of any par
ticular consequence.
| Feed-Oats are off 81 per ton tC
$32, with feed wheat down to $42 ant
$43. Barley is unchanged at $27. Brar
and shorts have been advanced 81 tC
$2S and $50 respectively. Business is
of about seasonable dimensions.

Greatest Wheat Crop.

Washington.-A billion bushel wheat
crop, the greatest ever grown in the
nations history, is indicated for the
coming harvest in this weeks fore
cast by the federal crop reporting
board on the growing winter and
spring wheat crops. Should that enor-
nous quantity be harvested the United

900 bushels of wheat during the COM
ing year to supply the demands of the
warning European nations, which are
expected to increase rather than di-

DISAGREED WITH PRESIDENT
WILSON OVER OUR POLICY
TOWARD GERMANY.
LANSING TAKES HIS PLACE
Cabinet Approves Wilson's Response
to German Reply on Lusitana Note
-8ryan's Successor Will Not Be
Named Immediately

washington, June S.-William Jen-
nings Bryan, three times democratic
candidate for the presidency of the
United States and author of nearly 30
peace treaties with the principal ma
lions of the world, resigned today as
secretary of state as a dramatic sequel
to his disagreement with President
Wilson over a governments policy to-
ward Germany.
RESIGNATION Accepted.
The resignation was accepted by the
president. The cabinet then approved
the response which had been prepared
to the German reply to the Lusitania
note. Acting Secretary Robert Ian
sing will sign the document and to-
morrow it will be cabled to Berlin
Secretary Bryan will return to pri-
vate life tomorrow, when his resigna-
ton takes effect 1t was learned that
he intends to continue his political
support of the president
Feared War Issue
Rather than sign the document
which he believed might possibly draw
the United States into war, Mr. Bryan
submitted his resignation in a letter
declaring that ''the issue involved is
of such moment that to remain a
member of the cabinet would be as
unfair to you as it would be to the
cause which is nearest my heart,
namely, the prevention of war"
The president accepted the resigna-
ton in letter of regret, tinged with
deep personal feeling of affection. The
letters constituting the official an
nouncement of Mr.. Bryant departure

Secretary Bryan's resignation takes
effect. He is lifelong democrat and
"a son-in-law- of John w. Foster, who
was secretary of state under President
Harrison. He has been an interna
tional lawyer for many years.
While there is much gossip already
as to President Wilson's probable Sc
lection for the secretaryship it is the
presidents plan to make no immediate
appointment 1t would not be sur
prising if he made no change in the
present status of the department
personnel for two or three months.
