Suit for $4,000 Comes
From Real Estate Deal

Judgment for the sum of $4,000 for
alleged false and wrongful representa-.
tions concerning the condition of real
estate in Benton county for which they
were to trade city property valued,
without mortgage, at 1880, is asked
by Elvira A. Lawler against F. w. Wa
ters, Mary +. Bates and her husband.
The plaintiff charges the defendants
with conspiracy to cheat and defraud in
regard to the state of the land, which
is situated in Benton county about IL
miles from Corvallis in the Coast range
mountains.
The complaint alleges that the acres
are uneleared, unfit for cultivation, that
the timber is of no value, the soil dobey
and worthless unless drained by cost
" drainage system, that the cultivablt
land is worn out and that everything
else is run down.
She states that her property, less th'
mortgage. is worth 1880 but that thu
land Of the defendants, less the mort
gage on it, was worth only $4,000. Sh'
says she feels she has been cheated al
though she agreed to trade under Ger
tain conditions.

Market Was Active
and Stocks Higher

New York, Oct. l6.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
In the greater part of today's ses.
sion, prices moved in the direction or
higher levels, marked strength being
reported in the steel and shipping
shares, in some of the rails, including
low priced issues, and in various special
ties. Buying was in moderately active
volume for both accounts, with falr
proportion of the purchases coming from
outside sources.
Active covering marked the business
in all the prominent stocks, notably IN
the Mercantile Marine, Atlantic, Gulf
and West Indies, United States Steel
Union Pacific, Rock Island, American
Hide and Leather shares and Chesa'
peake & Ohio, which showed advances
of from to points. Street gossip
as a rule was far more bullish than had
been noted in recent preceding days, not
only regarding inter national relations
but home politics as well, the latter find
ing expression in rather optimistic cal
culations on the floor of the exchange
and in commission house circles regard
ing the prospects for republican sue
cess in November.
Prices reached the highest level OF
the day in the late trading.

Good Gasoline
Easily 0btainable

A certain prominent automobile
manufacture, stated, in a recent
newspaper article, that his new mo-
tor was especially designed to han
die low-grade gasoline, or poor gas
oline" as he put it. "High-test gas
oline," he said, "is not easily OBJ
tainable in the most favored locali-
ties"
Commenting on this article, c. H.
Hamilton, district sales manager of
the Standard Oil Company, said yes
terday: Evidently the Pacific coast
was overlooked by this manufactur-
er in making up his list of most ia
vored localities Otherwise his state
ment regarding the scarcity of good
gasoline wouldn't hold good. For
Pacific coast motorists, at least,
should have no difficulty whatsoever
in obtaining pure, high-test distilled
gasoline. Our company has been for
years, and now is, putting out only
this real, good, oldfashioned, all
refinery, unmixed gas, and our dis
tributing machinery has put this gas
oline into practically every town and
hamlet on the Pacific coast. There's
no need for the Pacific coast motor
ist to so without good gasoline"
