FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET CLOSED HEAVY.
On Rumors of Disquieting Nature
 and Aggressive Selling.

New York, Nov. 27.-Vague rumors of a disquieting character, aggressive selling by professional traders and an advance in call money to 12 per cent, the highest rate except one this year. contributed to the heavy closing of today's market after an early period of strength and several new maximums.
 The hardening of money rates was not unexpected in view Of last weeks bank statement, which disclosed a further contraction of excess reserves to barely more than S5S,000.000, de- crease of more than $65.000,000 in the last three weeks and the smallest to- tai since the middle of the year.
 Gains of the forenoon ranged from a substantial fraction in United States Steel at the new high record of 129 3-4 to point or two in other active industrials and one to three points for leading equipments. Cop pers also were better, being stimulat- ed by another advance in future prices of the refined metal.
 Utilities and specialties of no special designation were higher at their best by to points. the latter gain being registered by Ohio Gas at the new record of 105 Is. Pittsburgh Coal. Philadelphia Company, Indus issues reflected the activities of pools or cliques, but yielded to moderate pressure
 Rails were ill no sense factor market wise, the only noteworthy movement in that quarter being the temporary strength or Reading and other coaJers, and the consistent heavi- ness of Canadian Pacific. Mexicans followed the upward trend of the first hour but were among the first to Jose ground. Total sales were 1,320,000 shares.
 The most interesting development of the day in it's broader implications was the decline of exchange on the central powers to the lowest rates quoted since the outbreak of the war. In point of fact. offerings of bills on Germany and Austria were barely nominal, so that today's depreciation was sentimental rather than actual.
 Gold imports on a large scale from England, by way of CanadS, were re- stunned and further moderate exports of the metal to South America were made.
 Bonds were irregular, with Paris sixes at a new low quotation. Toal sales (par value) were s5,340,O00.
 U. S. bonds were unchanged on call.

DOCTOR SAVES A BLACKSMITH

Some time ago I was taken with Kidney trouble which caused me to give up my work as blacksmith. I lost my appetite and could not sleep, from the dreadful pains that would come over me, from my kidneys. I was treated by physician for about three months. He could not help me so fin- ally he prescribed Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root. I started taking some and be- fore I had finished taking the first bot t'e I began to eat and sleep better than had in a long time. I continued to take same until I was entirely cured and took on considerable weight. T am now back working at my trade again and never felt better in my life. appneciate what Swamp-Root has done for me and will recomend it to anyone who suffers with their kidneys. When physicians fail to give relief and then prescribe Swamp-Root, they sure know of it's merits. I am,

Credit must also be given to Prendegast and Harris for both their offensive and defensive play Three pretty forward passes, Barry to Freeman, were worked in the last quarter, bringing the ball to the West Ends 10-yard line and then Brennan broke through for nine yards when the whistle blew for time, thus pre- venting a second touchdown.

The captainCy of the 1917 Harvard football team, which will have revenge on Yale as a motivating force, is a prize for which half a dozen players can compete on an equal basis There stands cut no special player, like Ma han or Brickley to whom the honor seems destined.
 Quarters Eligible.
 Of the 21 men who won their .H' against Yale. on Saturday, there are seven who will next year be seniors and who are automatically eligible for the captaincy. They are Billy Robinson and Billy Murray, the two quarter backs: HorWeen. the bunting fullback; Thatcher the defensive -halfback; Wheeler, the fighting tackle: Snow, the husky guard, and Wiggin the sub Stitute center. .-- this years freshman eleven will bol- ster the 1917 varsity; squad in such proportions that few of the second eligibles will be absolutely sure of their ositions as regulars next year, and 1t may even happen that the cap- tain may have to play part of thh next football season as a substi- tute instead of regular.
 There are 21 electoral votes in the Harvard squad, and there is sure to be ldNOE OI any one or tho @ ndidates. Wheeler, who has played slashing game at tackle all season, is rated as a good leader. He has just finished his first year of var sity football, but his work stamps him as very certain of being one of the strong men of next years line. Robinson a Good General.
 Robinson and Murray have uncov- cred favorable qualities during their playing this season, Robinson is a good general and a hustler and Mur- ray has demonstrated that he has the charm and driving force of leader. It has been a long time since liar ward has chosen quarterback for it's varsity captain. but the chances are about even that the captan's spaIGles will go to that position in 1917.
 Tommy Thatcher and Ralph Hor- ween are the backfield candidates for the big job. Thatcher has played a brilliant game all through the sea son and his refensive work has stood out among the seeondaries. He was of particular value in the Yale game and had much to do in withstanding the magnificent attack of the Blue at Harvard's goal line. Thatcher was the captain of his prep school football team at St. Marks. Horween is now unquestionab1y one of the steadiest plunging backs and punters that the

VILLA CUTS ROAD
SOUTH OF CHIHUAHUA
City Is Now Without Railroad
Communication Except
to North !.

FL Paso, Texas, Oct. 27.-Chihuahua
City has been cut off from the south.
both wire and railroad communication
being severed yesterday through a coup
executed by Villa, and the heavy Car
rama forces coming up from the south
to reinforce the garrison will be de-
layed and ammunition supplies stopped
except from the north.
Acting under orders from Villa him
self, a detachment marched across from
Santa Ysabel and cut the Mexican Ma
tional railway near Ortiz, about 80
miles south of chihuahua.
Agents of three United States de-
partmcns obtained this from source
declared to be reliable.
The severed line was the only rail
way from the south entering Chihua-
hua City and the city now is virtSally
isolated except from northern Chihua-
hua. AT the same time the main force
of Villistas are moving southwark.
Until the present time Villa has not
attempted to cut the railway lines, al
though he had access to them, because,
he declared, the civilian population of
northern Mexico would suffer.

State Engineer Lewis
Plans State Highways

John IL. Lewis, state engineer, who
has returned from a tour of inspection
of the proposed highway routes through
concerning the through route it has
been shown by surveys that a grade of
five per cent in Wheeler and Grant
counties can be secured from Fosil
down Service creek and up the John
Day river to the national forest above
Prairie City. The trip was made with a
view to making a five-year highway
program, which plan was recently sug-
gested by the secretary Of agriculture,
so that government funds could be ap-
piled to the principal routes with the
hope that they might soon be complet-
ed. .a
The engineer states that roads are
dusty from the heavy wheat hauling,
and that. construction work on the pOr-
ton of road, south of Bend, WHICH has
a length of IL miles, will be completed
probably this week. The state of Ore
gon and Crook county are cooperating
in this construction work and the
grades on The DallesC California high
way will be considerably improved.
In Wheeler county the engineer
found the sentiment in favor of bond
ing for $4,000 to help complete the
through route A portion of this mon
cy, should it be voted, would be spent
in making better roads on the McKen-
zie river-Prineville route to where it
conects with the John Day road near
Mitchell.

W|THYC0MBE AND KAY
DISAGREE ABOUT FLAX
Governor Wants TRUSTEES
Kept at Work, Kay Wants
Experiment Successful

On call of Governor .Withycombe the
board of control met this morning in
what proved to be highly interesting
session, although no action was record
ed, with the result that the 700 tons
.of flax now on hand probably will not
be. retted until next Spring. 1t de.
veloped at the meeting that because of
the nfavorable weather for retting
the flax this fall that the season s
work. viii. probably be a financial
failure.
1t was the opinion Of Governor
'Withyconlbe that the industry was
established for the employment of the
men at the penitentiary, and he said
that SO far Robert Crawford, superin.
tendent Of the flax industry, had done
no. retting and that it was too late in
the season unless some artificial means
was devised for doing the work. The
governor attacked the overhead ex-
penses and said that too much money
was spent for guards and for truck
hire in hauling the men back and
forth from the penitentiary to the
fields.
Robert Crawford replied that on ac-
count of the size of the crop the ex-
penses were normal. He declared the
weather had not been suitable for flax
retting as it had been too dry. The
governor disagreed and charged that
Crawford was looking toward making
the industry more of financial sue
cess than as means of affording em-
ployment to the convicts.l
Treasurer Kay demanded to know
why sufficient men had not been fur
nished by the warden for the work and
Warden Minto replied that he had
divided up the number of TRUSTEES and
assigned them to gathering the various
crops. The governor charged him with
making the flax industry secondary
to the other farm work.
Treasurer Kay and the Governor
clashed over the opinion that the flax
industry was to. be conducted only for
affording work for the convicts, Kay
holding that it should be made finan-
cial success if possible. Last year he
said was not success financially in
this department although it absorbed
work for the men. Kay also suggested
that dryer be built so that retting
could go on during the winter months
but Crawford opposed because he
said it was not Warranted and the ex-
pense would be too great for the return
given.
No action was taken on this sugges-
tion and it is probable that the men
will be idle during the winter The so
or 90 tons of flax on hand will be ret
ted but the remaining 700 tons will
probably have to remain until spring.

Fate of Mrs. Beutinger
In Hands Of Jury

Newark, N. j., Oct. '27.-Mrs. Mar
garet Claire Beutinger, pretty 2S year
old matron, who shot and killed her
wealthy husband, Christopher Beutin-
ger, because, she said,, he made repul-

know her fate before night.
Judge Martin began charging the
jury at 2 o'clock after the closing
arguments Mrs. Beutingcr's counsel
pictured the dead coal broker as an in
human, lascivious brute, who had
threatened the woman's life after she
had borne him five children, and ex-
pressed confidence that she would be
speedily acquitted.
Prosecutor Newman called upon the
jurors to repudiate the idea that a
jury of men could not accord the same
brand of justice to a woman that they
would deal out to a man.
