ALBERTA COUNTRY ONLY MARKET Sound Dealers Are Out of the Market and Local Dealers Muet Look to Canada for Business. With Sound buyers out of the field, Walla Walla horsemen complain of the dullness of the horse market, there is practically no demand for driving horses and very little for work animals, except In cases where farnv ers are in need of animals for harvest purposes and come to town in Bearch of what they want, j The only available market at pres ent where horses command fair prices is in the Alberta, Canada country, I which is being opened up for agricul tural purposes, and where a fair de mand for work animals exists. Deal ers say, howeyer, that they look for a revival in the horse market this fall. I* A. Vogal, a Pendleton horseman, arrived in the city yesterday with the remnants of a big band of horses he has had on hand the past year. He disposed of two cars to Sound buyers last week and had six animals left. These he brought to this city to Bell. The Alberta country, he stated this morning, offered fair inducements to horsemen, and be intends to ship two cars to that section soon. Walla Walla county's available sup ply of work horses was secured by Sound buyers early in the spring. Several firms with orders from trans fer and dray companies picked up the cream of the stock, paying top prices m every instance. It is estimated that 20 cars of horses were shipped to the Sound during the first two months of spring. Part of the Bhipments went to Alaska point*. THE EVENING STATESMAN, FRIDAY, AUGUBT 7, 1903. MARKtT YET UNSETTLED. The wheat market is in an unset tled position, says the West Coast Trade. 'That there- is an urgent de mand for such wheat as can be used for milling purposes is clearly ap parent, and as that demand is the present factor in price-making figures are being held at a limit well above the export basis. This is not only true as regards old wheat, but tbe same influence is extending Over into transactions in new crop. Consequent ly varying prices are being paid in producing sections and until the ex isting abnormal condition in,changed a settled market need not be expec ed* Locally old crop bluestem wheat is quoted at S2c, with 78c for club, but millers wanting stock would doubt less be required to pay a premium oyer these ligures. New crop is quot ed 2c lower at 80c for bluestem and 76c for club and red. With current freight rates of 20921s 3d for Paget Sound loading and the Liverpool basis If values, a fair export price would c 73c for club and 76c for bluestem, hence it is apparent that nothing will be doing for European markets un til the mills have gotten in and se cured such wheat as is needed for supplying an excellent prospective oriental demand up to the close of the year at least. While South Africa has been importing some wheat, both from Argentina and Atlantic sea boards there promises to be a fair call from that important source, and Japan will take an increased quantity of wheat over any previous year, though hardly enough to make any appreciable effect on market values as a whole. Growers are strong in their views, re-inforced by the pres sure of demands for immediate re quirements, though it is doubtful if any rise in the general situation will offset the present premium being paid over the normal export price. Very little wheat is available as yet or will be for some time to come. Winter wheat harvest has but fairly commenced, and it will he the middle of August before spring wheat is fit to cut in most sections. Latest inte rior advices contain the usual varia tions in information. Walla Walla reports still too early to form aa in telligent estimate. Market not open ed up. Mills paying 75c for old blue stem wheat. Dayton: 25 to 30 bush els to the acre; 25 to 50 bushels of barley; average 35. Pomeroy: 80 per cent of last year's wheat and barley crop. Palouse: Middle August before grain threshing commences. Winter wheat probably 85 per cent of last year's crop. Spring wheat promises full yield. Reardan: Conditions im proved. Quality promises to be good, with freedom from smut. Buyers pay iny 59@60c for club 62@63c for blue stem. Almira: Wheat on flats prom ises 60 per cent of last year; over the ridge, as good as last, season. Har rington: Average about 15 bushels with good quality." Coulee City: Yield from one-half to two-thirds, that of last year. Around Waterville and Bridgeport fully two-thirds. Cou nell: Average about 12 bushels, with a range of 8 to 25 bushels per acre. The week's receipts, were 18 cars, or 17,640 bushels. For July the total was the lightest since inspection was inaugurated or but 52 cars. For eleven months total receipts were i 0,68- cars or 10,486.360 bushels, With 4,266 cars or 4.180,680 bushels, received at Seattle, a total of 14,667,- --000 bushels for the two. Sound mar kets. X lifl Hi «M MAYOR OF SPOKANE HAS FIGHT ON HAND Spokane.—Mayor Boyd has openly declared his intentions of going after the scalp of Corporation Counsel Jud son. He announces positively that he wants a corporation counsel to his own liking. He says the term of Cor poration Counsel Judson has expired, and that the council should be willing now to confirm his appointee. The mayor is republican. Judson is a democrat. The city council is dem ocratic by 6 to 4, and the six demo crats have entered a combine for self protection with one of the principles to hold Judson in o.Tice. F. M.

DANGEROUS POINT 7 City's Water Supply Is Running Short. WATER SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT Council Last Night Authorized Belec tion of Competent Engineer to L»ok Up Water Resources. With creeks sad springs running low Wa|la Walla's Water sapply ia at the danger mark. Superintendent Knight ofthe- water department re ported to the council last night that one of the pumping plants is being run night and day and the others working on an average of 15 hours a day. The present supply will barely tide over the city's needs during the dry summer months. Radical measures must be taken before another season to give the city a sufficient supply. On these statements Councilman das ford moved that a competent hydrau lic engineer be employed by the city to investigate the city's available wa ter resources. One with a record should be secured, he said. The may* or was authorized to select a compe tent engineer and present his name to the council for appointment. City officials hereafter will he re quired to give surety bonds in relia ble companies, the city to pay the premiums. The bonds of Clerk Rey nolds for $2000, Chief Brown's two bonds, one of -$2000 as delinquent tax collector and the other as chief of po lice for $1000, and Assessor Mer chant's bond of $300 were accepted. Treasurer Shaw's bond for $25,000 wag rejectedrupon the opinion of Attorney Blandford, who ruled that the names of the wives of the sureties should be affixed to the instrument It was a mere matter of form but vitally Im portant to make the bond effective. Mr. (Shaw will file a surety bond im mediately, the city to pay the prem ium. Upon the advice of former City As sessor Rourk and Attorney Blandford the board reduced the assessment on certain personal property of the W. C. R., $1800, the* property having been doubly assessed. Contractors reported that the alley between Main and Alder, recently graded and improved, was, ready to be turned over to the city. The mat ter was referred to the street commit tee. I A communication from J. C. Ryan, who wishes to lease a strip of the city's land, 300 by 100 feet east* of sec tion 16, was referred. A resolution introduced by Martin and adopted provides that the city engineer will permit no private sewer to be covered or trenches refilled until the connection with the main sewfr pipe tias been inspected. The election of a poundmaster was delayed until the return of Council man McKean. Candidates for the po sition are 1.-A. McKenzie, H. A. Cro well an 9E. R. Harding. It is the first time that the election of an appointive officer has ever been delayed by the absence of one member of the coun cil and it is said that a political under current is at work. The appointments of Ben Wolf and Emile Sanderson on the local police force were confirmed. The water committee was authoriz ed to employ a night man at the pump ing plant until October Ist. to assist the regular engineer. Albert Greigs was placed on the paid fire department as nozzleman vice Horace McKenzie resigned. TRIE Trib can be taken privately and never interfere with any man's busi ness.

CORBETT'S PUNCH Is Being Dcv eloped aid Strengtheied m natch with ciiinu Gentleman Jim Is Confident of Win. ning—Can Hit Harder Than Ever. New York. —After all the forecasts :are cast, and all the fractions of the problematic summed up, and the whichness of the what and wherefore ness of the why added, the whole re solves into this: Has Jim Corbett the punch? Has he developed it? If he has, then is he the greatest fist fighter of this or any previous time. The mighty* walloper, the grand old man of the prize ring, Bob Fitz simmons, would be in the sub-cellar of the preliminary department com pared with a punch. In everything else that goes to make up a. fighter, Corbett is as far above his confreres as high Olympus is above a wart on an ant hill. But all this exceptional skill, a de fense that surpasses that of "Young" Griffe. an attack swifter and surer than "Kid" McCoy's profiteth him naught when the punch is subtracted Therefrom. Corbett himself —doubtful authori ty —dec lares he has it. Hnvict Harry Riley, who kidnapped Mrs. Elliott Parkhurst last Sunday morning at 1 o'clock carying her away in a back, The effort proved fruitless, for not. a trace of. (lie miss, Ing man and woman could be fonnd. The kidnaping of Mrs. Parkhurst by an ev-convict has bean the theme of endless talk on the streets and in the hotels and cafes about the city since the story. was published. The police are more than ever inclined to the belief that Riley laid the plot to kidnap the woman, and executed it with admirable exactness. Detectives Kerrigan and Day, who are working on the case, have been unable to find any* trace of the miss ing man and woman. One of the two theories is thought to be correct they have left town, or are in hiding, as no one has seen them. The Parkhursts were married in Woodburn, Or., seven years ago, and from all that can be learned, this is the first trouble they have experi enced A warrant for Harry Riley's arrest has been issued, and a determined ef fort is being made to locate him. He is said to be a desperate man, and a conflict is feared should the officers tackle him when he is in an angry mood. FREE FOR ALL PRINTING.

Improvements are-being made from year-to pear in nearly every city's charter, 5 so that, at last, the management of cities will be put on a strictly business basis. Yet, after this shall have been brought about in every large city, one thing more must be done in order to make the government a popular suc cess, in order, to satisfy the people, Who are stockholders in the municipal corporation. The organic law may be absolutely perfect.. But it will be little beter in operation than a worse law if the voters themselves fail in their duty. «r A defective charter may be turned to good advantage by a thoroughly conscientious and capable adminis tration; and, on the other hand, an excellent charter may be serioußly misused by a corrupt administration. Much progress is being made in im proving the systems of municipal,gov ernment.

AY. THE DAVIS-KASER CO. Everything to Furnish the House. FARMERS STILL m CLOVER. Will Take m More Money From Wheat CroV th 6 -Year Than last Is Opinion of Experts. Despite the poor wheat crop of the Northwest, farmers of Washington will take m more money for wheat this season than 1 last is. the opinion: ex pressed yesterday by Deputy State Grain Inspector King to correspond ents. His views have been substan tiated by growers in the eastern part of the state. In fact, he says, it is just now being forced upon the minds of the big wheat growers of the state that conditions are such this year that the state is far more fortunate in its wheat crop fn some respects titan it waa with last year's crop. Where farmers last year were contracting their new wheat for 40 cents a buahel, this year they are refusing to make contracts to anxious representatives of flouring mills and exporters: at 60. cents a bushel for dub wheat and 7 front 66 to 68 centa per bushel; for bidestem. This great -in 7 crease in the siae of offers over the contract prices with which the see-, rson started in: last season is due to wheat shortages in other parts of the vportd and toh the feeling that there will be a general demand for wheat frof lhe Pacific coast* of tfie CFt3 ies.

IRRIGATION A SUCCESS Id Coonty of Spokane Says a Report ISBURB 6T THE GQVRRMEIVT Some of the Arid Areas Tha Have Been Made to Blossom as the Rose. Washington, D. C. —'Nowhere in the state of Washington has irrigation by private enterprise been attended with greater success than in the Spokane valley. True, the irrigation systems of that region are less extensive than those of the Yakima valley, but it is likewise true that nature has done much to assist the irrigators of low lands lying tributary to the city of Spokane. That region is climatically peculiar. It was found, by irrigation experts who visited the valley, that in past seasons whenever there was a rainy summer fair crops could be raised, but about every third year crops were almost an entire failure. The introduction of irrigation, how ever, has changed all this. The Spokane valley, about forty mile* long and from three to six miles wide is blesed with rich soil in black granitic loam. Around the border of the valley are some of the finest or chards and gardens in the northwest. Out ha ike valley, which has been par tial./ settled for years, a different State of affairs prevails. The prin cipal crop, up to the time of Irriga tion, was fall-planted wheat, and this was about the only crop that could be counted on. The Initial Step. in the foothills surrounding the val jej are numerous lakes where the V9ter from the melting snows from iiountains and the spring rains is heY in check. A company has con .l these natural lakes into stor reservoirs and by a ysytem of canals distributes the water :he farm lands below. The canals are not yor completed. astcuction work was begun in 1900 tcanal was built from Liberty *1!iBA\I!

There was an opening from this chamber running downwards, and Prof. Flett allowed his alpenstock to slip and fall down the opening. As the alpensi.ock was necessary for safety, one of the young men volun teered his services to go after it. A rope was fastened around his body and he was lowered a distance of seventy-live feet before be recovered the alpenstock. When he returned he reported that there were a number of chambers, similar to the one first entered, at short distances apart as far down as he had one. At an unknown depth there was a body of water. This waa discovered by throwing pebbles down and. hearing them splash when they struck the water. Near the top of the crater the party also discovered mineral springs that had never been reported by others who have climbed the mountain. The steam that issues from tbe fissures tn tbe rocks at the side of the crater is Said to be without any odor of any kind,

Here lay some old whisky bar itta, two or three lager beer kegs and the iron hoops of several barrels that had been burned. There were several one gallon jugs with corncob stoppers, j Pole swept his band over them with a i laugh. "If you was a drinkin' man, I could treat you to a thimbleful or two left in them jugs," he said almost apol ogetically. "But I don't drink, Baker," Craig said. His premonition of danger seemed to have returned to him and to be driv en in by the dank coolness of the cav ern, the evidence of past outlawry around him. Pole heaped his pieces of pine against a rock and added to them the chunks of some barrel staves, which set up a lively popping sound like a tiny fusil lade of artillery. "You see that rock behind you, Mr. Craig?" asked Pole. "Well, set down on it. Before we go any furder me 'n you've got to have a understanding." The old man stared hesitatingly for an iustan*. and then, after carefully feeling of the stone, he complied, "1 thought we already—but, of course," he said haltingly, "I'm ready to.agree to anything that '11 make you feel safe." "1 kinder 'lowed you would," And, to Craig's overwhelming astonishment, Pole drew a revolver from his hip pock et and looked at it, turning the cylin der with a deft thumb. "You mean. Baker"— But Craig's words remained unborn in his bewil dered brain. The rigor of death itself seemed to* hr.ye beset .his tongue. A cold sweat broke out on him. "1 mean that I've tuck the trouble to fetch you heer fer a purpose, Mr. Ctetig, an' thar ain't any use*in beatin' about tbe bush to git at it." Craig made another effort at utter ance, but failed. rol could hear his ttftid breathing and see the terrified gleaming f his wide open eyes. "You've had a lots o' dealin's, Mr. j &aig." said Pole. "You've made yore mistakes an' had yore good luck, but i "You've trapped md" t you never did a bigger fool tbing 'an J°u did when you listened to my tale tb °M that lump o' gold." 'You've trapped me!" burst from quivering lips. JThat's about the size of it." The wordg formed the «*{nnnin g and the end of a gasp. role towered over him, the revolver IWs tense hand. Mr- Craig, thar is one man in this that Id die far twsstfy 9mes over, l love 'lib more than a brother. That man you've robbed of every dol lar an' hope oa earth. I've fetched you hear to die a Ungerin' death, ef—ef, I nay, ef—you don't refund his money. That man is Alan Bishop, an' the amount is $25,000 to a cent" "But I haven't any money," moaned the crouching figure; "not a dollar that I kin lay my hands on." i "Then you aro in a party bad fix." said Pole. "Unless I git that amount o* money from you you'll never smeU a breath o' fresh air or see natural daylight." "You mean to kill a helpless man?" The words were like a prayer. "I'd bottle you up heer to die," said Pole Baker firmly. "You've met me In this lonely spot, an' no man could lay yore end to me. In fact, all that know you would swear you'd run off from the folks you've defrauded. You Bee, nothin' but that money o' Alan Bishop's kin possibly save you. You know that well enough, an' thar ain't a bit o' use palaverin' about it. I've fetched a pen an' ink an' paper, an' you've got to write me an order fer tbe money. If I have to go as fur off as Atlanta, I'll take the fust train an' go after it. If I git tbe money, yon git out; ef I don't, you won't see me agin nur nobody else till you face yore Maker." Craig bent over his knees and groaned. "You think I have money," he said, straightening up. "Oh, my God!" "I know it," said Pole. "I don't think anything about it—l know it." He took out the pen and ink from his pants pocket and unfolded a sheet of paper. "Git to work," he said. "You needn't try to turn me, you durned old hog!" Craig raised a pair of wide open, helpless eyes to tbe rigid face above him. "Oh, my God!" he said again. "You let God alone an' git down to business," said Pole, taking a fresh i hold of the handle of his weapon. I "I'm not goin' to Waste time with you. j Either you git me Alan "Bishop's money or you'll die. Hurry up!" j "Will you keep faith with me—if— if"- "Yes, durn you, wouldn't I?" A gleam of triumph flashed in the out law's eyes. The ex-banker had taken the pen and Pole spread out the sheet of paper !on his knee. "What assurance have IT stam -1 mered Craig, his face like a death mask against the rock behind him. "You see. after you got the money, you might think* it safer to leave me here, thinking that I would prosecute you. I wouldn't, as God is my judge, but, i you might be afraid"— "I'm not afiraid o' nothin'," said Pole. "Old man, you couldn't handle me without puttin' yoreself in jail fer the rest o' yore life. fThat order's a-goin' to be proof that you have money when you've swore publicly that you didn't' No; when I'm paid back Alan Bishop's money I'll let you go. I don't want to kill a man fer jest tryin* to steal an' not makin' the riffle." The logic struck home. The warmth of hope diffused itself over the gaunt form.
