Portland Weekly
Market Report

Portland, Sept. 25.-The market
opened for the week with receipts Of
something more than 100 cars to face
a steady market in all departments
with some indications of strength in
the cattle and sheep strings.
Cattle-The supply of about 1000
cattle in the stockyards for the OPEN
ing market of the week does not
merit the same quality estimate as
was placed on the cattle offered in
the previous week. A larger per cent
of stock and feeder cattle were found
in the yards this weeks opening than
at any previous time during the sea-
son. While some good butcher stuff
appeared, the greater percentage was
of an inferior type The market
showed considerable signs Of
strength, but not enough to warrant
any elevation in the price quotations.
The cattle market is active and the
demand for good quality of steers
is especially firm at the following
figures: Best beef steers SO to
1918, good beef steers $3.50 to
$S.75, best beef cows $6.75 to 81 so,
ordinary COWS $4 to s6.75, best heif-
ers 81 to sS, bulls 81 to $6.75, calves
81 to $3.50, stockers and feeders 81
to 1925.
Hogs-No good hogs are being Of
fered on the market, and the 1000
or 1900 offered so far this week got
away with steady prices in compari-
son with the close OF last week. This
would really indicate a higher mar
ket this morning If the quality had

Rhondda's Speech a Relief
Criticising the Chancellor's speech,
"The Nation" says:
"Was there any real reason to sup
pose that as soon as America came in
she would say to our government: you
have borne the burden Of financing the
Allies long enough; hand it all over to
me-? Yet one or two pathetic passages
in Bonar Laws speech suggested that
he had been led astray in this impor-
tant belief"
Again, all the strength of the popu-
lar feeling against the methods of the
recruiting officers is apparent here, and
their machinery has undoubtedly in
jured the progress Of the war in many
sections. Lord Derby accepted the rec
concentrations of the committee ap-
pointed to inquire into the medical eX-
animation of recruits almost before
they were made, and, moreover, went
much further by offering to place all
recruiting in the hands of the civil
authorities.
Lord Rhondda's speech promising a
substantial decrease in food prices has
tended to restore a balance, but alto
gether the people have been dispirited.
They want powerful mental tonic,
not for the sake of their determination
to carry out the war to the bitter end,
because that would be unnecessary, but
for the purpose Of assisting them to do
so with greater cheerfulness and a
lighter heart.

Paci6sts Sought
To Indorse Peace
Plan of Reichstag
But Lansing Held Up
Americans Cable Intend
ed for German Leaders

Letters were made public yesterday
showing that the pacifsts have been
trying to induce the State Department
to permit them to communicate with
Berlin.
On July 20 the Peoples Council, 2
West Thirteenth Street, which main
tains peace propaganda branches in
sevcnty-fve cities, sent letter to Sec
retary Lansing asking official permis-
sion to send "a message of greeting to
the majority bloc of the Reichstag,
which, on July 10, forced through a
resolution favoring the Russian peace
| formula"
The letter urged that "it is impera-
tive that the democratic forces Of
Germany be encouraged from this
country"
Lansing Refuses to Pass Cable
Apparently Secretary Lansing has
no. felt constrained to take advan-
tage of the pacifsts' offer to create
democracy in Germany, for up to yes
terday he had not granted the per-
mission.
The proposed 240-word cablegram to
the majority bloc of the Reichstag,"
which is being held in abeyancc, N
part says:
"The organizing committee of 'he
Peoples Council of America, repre-
senting large numbers of workmen's,
socialist and other democratic organi-
cations, send greetings TO the major
ity bloc of the German Reichstae,
which carried the peace resolution on
July 19-'peace without forced acqui-
sitions of territory, without political,
economic and financial violations, with
mutual understanding and lasting
reconciliation among the nations, and
with the creation of international
juridical organizations
"Your resolution, as we understand
it, means that the great masses of the
German people have responded to the
appeal of the Russian democracy for
q peace with no forcible annexations,
ma punitive indemnities and with the
free development of all nationalities.
Hope for Speedy Peace
eve regret that the democratic
forces in the Reichstag are not yet
strong enough to have compelled the
new German Chancellor to accept un-
equivocally your resolution. We sin
eercly hope, however, that the time is
near when you will acquire the power
to aid the world in bringing about a
speedy, universal, democratic and last
I ing peace.
"We are hopeful that the American
government will stand behind the Rus
| sian government, and that the govern
ments of England, France and Italy
may thus be persuaded that pace
upon the Russian terms, now accented
by you, is possible and desirable"

milk will be delivered at stores in bulk
for Sl2 cents quart.
The rise in price TO the consumer,
the company states, is due TO increased
prices paid 70 farmers and the higher
cost of labor and materials. During
the year ended June 80, 1916, the mar
gin of profit TO the company is said to
have been about one-quarter of cent
a quart. Decreasing sales and ad-
vancing costs are said 20 have reduced
this profit in the year ended June 80,
1917.
The company believes that IL is en-
titled TO a profit of 10 per cent on its
investment, and in order 70 attain that
with the estimated volume of sales it
must get a nee profit of one-half cent
on each quart OF milk. IL is believed
that the new schedule will accomplish
this.

prices the company calls attention TO a
abottle loss" of Sj00,0 900 during 1916
