Oregon Short Line Financing

The Oregon Short Line Railway re-
funding financing will probably be ar
ranged before before the close of the
current week. It will involve the is
sue of 100000 of new bonds, which
will probably bear per cent coupon,
as this is the rate fixed under the
mortgage. In the opinion Of some bank
ers the Offering price of the Oregon
Short Line bonds win set new high
tion. Oregon Short Line is one Of the
important subsidiaries of the Union
Pacific. Kuhn, Loeb & Co will be the
bankers. The proceeds Of the new is
sue will go to take up maturity of
next FehruarY.

Big Market in Governments"

The rise in the Victory Az notes to
high record of 10O.02 yesterday, and
of the fourth Liberty loan AIS to 9S.14
drew forth from bankers the fact that
the demand for United States govern
ment war issues has been steadily
broadening for weeks. Savings banks,
trust companies and corporations are
now buying these securities in big
blocks. One trust company last week,
erty issue at single swoop into the
market. Many institutions are now
switching from Victory notes into the
Liberty issues. Meanwhile the Treas
ury Department is continuing to buy in
the Victory notes, and this is one of
the potent reasons for the rise in this
issue above par for the first time.

The Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Foreign exchange rates developed
further strength yesterday, the general
list moving forward steadily, with the
exception of marks, which turned re-
dictionary. Reports were less optimis-
tic over the possibilities of mora
torium for German reparations.
Cable rates on London advanced to
within almost cent of the high level
established last week, closing at
s4osM, net gain of X cents. French
francs virtually regained the TX cent
level, while Swiss francs advanced al
most to par on indications that trade
was developing satisfactorily in Switz-
erland.
Changes in the South American and
Far Eastern groups were irregular.

Argentine Would Sell Notes

Argentine is definitely in the Amer
can market for another loan OF 500.
100000. This fact was established
in Wall Street banking circles yester-
day, where ii was learned that the Ar
geiitine government is seeking to ar
range additional short-term financing
to this amount, supplementing the
$50,000,000 two-year z per cent notes
placed here about two months ago. By
raising 25,000,00O in this manner
Argentina will be able to postpone its
program Of permanent financing until
after the elections have taken place
next spring. Indications are that the
new short-term financing negotiations
may be closed shortly, and almost
certainly before the end of the year.
If The deal goes through according to
schedule the $25,00O,000 financing pro-
jected by the city of Buenos Ayres is
likely to be delayed until later SO as
not to conbict with the governments 5
financing plans.

Canadian Financing

The Dominion Of Canada could bat
a loan Of $50,oOO.o00 at net cost Of
6 per cent, including all commissions,
bankers said yesterday. This was
apropos Of reports that the Canadian
government is prospective borrower
here. Any such loan would probably
bear coupon rate of 6h per cent.

MYSTERIOUS AUTO ACCIDENT
ON THE CORDRAY ROAD

What seems TO have been a mystic
rious automobile accident was report
ed at The News Office Monday by
Mr.. w. E Harvin, of Dickey, While
en- route from Albany to his home Sat
urday morning on the Cordray road
about ten miles from Albany Mr.. Har
win came to a large white oak tree
across the highway. Scattered about
the place was a considerable amount
OF broken glass and blood, indicating
that some person or persons were VIC
TINS OF a serious accident. Mr. Har~
vim made a close examination OF the
splotches of blood, which led him 10
believe that two people were in the
car when it struck the fallen tree. The
machine had been priced from under
the tree but heavy rains had washed
out the tracks so that ii was impossl-
bic to determine in what direction IL
had been taken from the scene OF the
trouble. The accident remains mys-
terry, no paper in this section having
carried any notice OF what appears to
have been a very serious wreck.

REV. GRIFFIN FLAYS
THINGS" FEARLESSLY
CONDEMNS STREET DANCING
AND PRIZE PARTIES, AND
VIOLATION OF SABBATH.

The church rules as read by the
pastor of the Methodist church Sun
day night were the basis for clear cut
comment on certain local conditions,
and he held the closest attention OF
the large congregation. The speaker,
while endorsing in the highest terms
the recent Community Sale, fearlessly
and without gloves condemned the
street dancing, costumes worn by the
dancers, etc, which he characterized
as a shame on the community. He ex-
pressed surprise that such features OF
entertainment should have been put
on by people of this splendid COM
n1unity. Mr.. Griffin also paid his res
poets to the custom in Dawson OF
playing for prizes at card parties. He
quoted the decision of supreme court
Judge chasing this with the lowest
form of gambling.
He deplored the laxity on the part
OF drug stores, in regard to the viola
ton of the Sabbath by selling other
than articles necessary for the sick
and classed as equally guilty OF desc
Grating the holy day those who make
purchases. He declared the Methodist
church to be against all questionable
diversions and the breaking OF the
Sabbath, and made strong appeal tc
the members of the Dawson church
to stand uncompromisingly against
these forms of wordliness. The pastor
delivered his message in spirit OF
charity but with deep earnestness and
force. He is upheld by strong public
sentiment in his arraignment of these
evils by many who fully agree with
the position he has taken. On the 9th
er hand he has come in for good
share of criticism from those who do
not hold his pronounced views.
