Major Beach of the engineer corps at
Fort Leavenworth, has had referred to
him the bill Introduced by Congressman
Curtis, for the construction of a military
highway between that post and Fort Riley.
He Is directed to make a thorough In
vestigation Into the matter and tnen sub
mit a detailed report, covering facilities
for scouring the neoessary rock along the
route, etc.
To comply with the recent order just
Issued from the War department, which
directs that no building, hall, street, drive
way, etc., on a military reservation will
be named In honor of a living officer, the
names over the two bachelors' quarters
will have to be changed. Carr hall In the
cavalry garrison. Is named after General
Comlllo C. C. Carr, U. S. A., recently re
tired and now living In London, England.
General Carr was ljl command of this post
when the construction of the building waa
authorized. The bachelor officers' quarters
now in process of construction in the artil
lery post, has been named after Ueneral
Wallace F. Randolph, who was retired lust
year as chief of artillery, and who formerly
commanded the artillery subpost.
The engineer battalion Is hurrying the

ter, the break-up of the Ice In the spring
would very likely result In an Ice Jam
which would be a serious state of af

before the game It looked as If the soldiers
should have a walk-over, but before the
first half had been completed, Riley learned
that they were up against a stiff proposi
tion and that the "Hoosiers" were there
with the goods. Fort Riley played a hard
f ame, but the opposing team was too much
or them. They not only had Riley out
classed In passing the ball but In landing
goals. Riley's great weakness, as shown
In previous games, was In throwing bas
kets, but In this case It was also unable
to handle the ball effectively in passing.

Yet orders continue to come in. Just as

raisins show an easy tendency, with the
range slightly lower.
Sardines Rule Stronger.
Sardines are unchanged locally, but In
the east are strong at the advance of loo
per case on one-fourth oils and 2ua per case
on three-fourths mustards, which went Into
effect Wednesday. Stocks of all descrip
tions are firmly held and In small compass.
The prices based on the advance are as
follows: One-quarter olla, key-opening
cans, J2.9T4j3.oO; keyless, one-fourth oils,
12.70; small one-fourth mustards, drawn
cans, J2.70; large one-fourth mustards,
drawn cans, $2.76; large one-fourth mus
tards, sanitary cans, X2.8U; three-fourths
mustards, 60a, $2.46, and 48s, $2.35; one-fourth
tomatoes, $3.25; all f. o. b. Eastport. Red
Alaska salmon Is firm at quotations and a
fair movement Is reported from Jobbers.
The buying from first hands Is on a small
scale at the moment. Columbia river sal-
i mon Is In small compass.
The tea market is still strona-. with a good
demand from Jobbers for Interior consump
tion. Prices hold firm and unchanged, in
view of the shortage of 10,0W,uua pounds
tn the year's supplies. No sales of especial
significance are reported.
Business In drugs and chemicals for ths
year haa begun auspiciously, and mall
orders have exceeded expectations, but in
some Instances compliance with the require
ments of the pure food and drug law is
causing more or less confusion and incon
venience. It Is expected, however, that
affairs will shortly adjust themselves to ths
satisfaction of those concerned, and dealers
are disposed to view the situation philo
sophically. Price changes yesterday were
chiefly of minor consequence, but the gon
eral market retained a steady undertone.
Bark shipments from Java show consider
able shrinkage, and the position of quin
ine Is firm, lialsam copaiba values have
again been advanced, and Valencia saffron
Is higher. Cotton root bark Is dull nnd a
shade lower. Culvers root and deer tongue
leaves are firmer and the latter Is very
scarce.
Quinine remains quiet In the continued
absence of Important demand, but manu
facturers' prices are well sustained on the
basis of ITHc for bulk In 100-ounce tins. A
stimulating feature of the situation Is the
falling off In bark shipments from Java
during the past year, the figures for
Deeembor being 564,0n0 pounds, against
8R4.00O for the corresrpondlng month 1n l'.tos.
The total shipments for 190 are 13.51fi.000
pounds, against 15. 406.01 0 In 1905, showing a
shrinkage of nearly 2.000,000 pounds.
