"Whoof-avast you greedy intrud-
err" shouted Warren Morse abruptly,
discovering the heifer in among his
rare garden stuff, and he drove the
animal from the spot where it was
contentedly luxuriating. Grinnell
viewed the proceeding with a dark
scowl and suspicious eye. Then he
moved slowly away.
II hear you are going TO leave town,
uncle" spoke Warren, following him.

"No, won't" snapped the old man.
"You would go away and marry
against my will the daughter of my
bitterest enemy. Now make the best
of it."
THE best of itT repeated Morse,
with a radiant face "Oh, uncle, it's
all BEST She is the loveliest woman
in the world and as to her father being
your enemy-nonsenseI Look out .
They've been digging a ditch there"
Too late Morse spoke. His uncle
had crossed a broken stretch beyond
the garden, everywhere dug up and
covered with the debris of a burned
down building. Grinnell had stumbled
over a tilted log. dropped two feet
among litter of old iron and wood
and lay there, groaning and helpless.
Morse was at once all solicitude
and interest. He examined the fallen
tyro. Then he said:
Its broken leg, uncle, I'm afraid
and ran TO the house. Inside of five
minutes on an improvised litter the old
man was carried into room hastily
prepared for him, surgeon was sent
for, and amid his pain and fright and
existing confusion Grinnell did not
have time or thought to analyze what
was going on about him.

clared.

AS he was passing st. Francis church,
in Hoboken, Patrolman Mcclure heard
a noise and saw somebody moving
stealthily in the churchyard. When
almost upon the prowler he pointed his
revolver, flashed a light and ordered
hands up.
An indignant big ape sat up and
chartered at him defiantly. Mcclure de-
cided that what he needed was rope,
so he backed out of the churchyard and
got one, with which he lassooed the
animal. The circus began right then

PORTLAND MARKETS.

Labor troubles continue TO exist in
some packing house sections and have
affected the market at the Portland
Union Stock yards. Local packers
and small killers have made every
possible effort to take care OF the
shipments without attempting a break
IN the market In any department.
In the cattle department, steers got
away at a little advance In prices over
quotations and over prevailing prices
al the close OF last week. while cows
sold just steady with last weeks
quotations. All other classes continue
steady. Finished steers Just at this
time would meet with a hearty de-
mand and would pass the scales at
$40 to $10.25. but they would have to
be good.
The hog department, In contrast to
the opening market for last week,
showed an extremely light shipment,
all OF which was taken over readily
at steady prices.
The sheep department showed no
receipts. and very little demand seem
ed to be evident in that department.
This season is standing squarely be-
tween the product OF the pasture and
the feed lot. when practically all
hihnH hHipIltilih nave Dttn put on
the market, and practically nothing
Is yet ready for the market from the
feed lots, as Is usual in that state of
affairs. Both shipments and quality
are considerably "off color" The de-
mand continues extremely active, how
ever, for stock and feeder animals in
all classes, and it looks to us as If
his might be one of the most oppor-
tune times to pass into the market the
feeder supply. This department is
very active In the hog alleys as we'll
as in the cattle department, while the
market in the sheep department is con-
fined almost wholly to breeding ewes
In this class there is a considerable
supply and an active trade. We quote
the following prices: Medium to
choice steers, 80 to 1855: medium to
good steers. $S.25 to $915; common
to good steers. 1915 to $3.50; choice

MATTER OF UNION PRINCIPLE
MAY TIE UP THREE BIG ROADS

The labor situation in Minneapolis
and st. Paul reached an acute stage
again Wednesday night with the pos
sibility that a large proportion Of
union men In both cities and some
throughout the northwest would quit
work Thursday as a protest against
the order of the public safety commits
sion OF Minnesota directing the dis
use by street a men of buttons in
dicating their membership in the
Amalgamated Association OF Street
and Electric Employees. Labor lead
ers estimated on the face of incom-
plete reports that 80 per cent of the
unionists IN the Twin Cities would
walk out Thursday and that railroad
shopmen from st. Paul to the Pacific
coast might follow.
Union officials declared they recog-
nized the hardships such a sympathe-
tic strike would involve but say they
cannot help acting in a matter that
involves what they consider a big
principle. Word from Washington in
dictated little chance of federal &C
ton.
Chief among the various industries
that would be partly tied up by a
strike are the three great railroads
running from the Twin Cities to the
coast-the Great Northern, Northern
Pacific and the Chicago. Milwaukee &
st. Paul. If a large proportion of
mechanics in their shops at various
points should go out it is admitted
that the reads would be seriously
handicapped and hat military traffic
as we'll as transportation of food
stuffs and livestock would suffer.

Former Premier OF France to BE Tried
For DislOyalty.

In parliamentary circles it is stated
that the letter in which General Du-
bail, military governor of Paris, ask
ed authorization Wednesday of the
chamber OF deputies for the prosecu-
ton Of former Premier Caillaux, who
recently was accused of being con
cerned in the campaign for a dishon-
orable peace. sets forth a number of
facts brought to light in the investiga-
tons of other cases, upon which three
charges are based.
The first charge is an attempt
against the safety of the state by acts
OF a nature tending to compromise the
alliances concluded between France
and foreign powers. The second
charge concerns reasonable relations
with the enemy, and the third has to
do with peace propaganda. The sec
ond and third charges come within
the jurisdiction of the military courts,
but as to the first many deputies hold
that If it is to be proceeded with it
will necessitate sending the former
premier before a high court.
Caillaux was in the chamber of dep
uties, flushed and agitated, when the
session opened.
"At an early date l will dissipate
this cloud of gossip and will take oc-
casion to explain to the chamber all
my policy before the war" he said.
