THE MOKJiING , QREGOIAN, JTRIBAY, VEGETABLES ON ICE New 'Departure in the Prod uce Jobbing Trade, PROMISE OFHOLIDAY BUSINESS Indication of Higli Prices for Tnr- Iceyji Apple Market Dull, Wltli an Overaupplj' v on Hand. This year's holiday trade on Front street .promises to surpass that o last year. In the grocery line the bulk of the business has been done already. In produce, the country trade has been supplied, but the city trade will not open up much' before Monday. The jobbera have made full preparations for the business. All kinds of fruit and vegetables that could be secured are on hand. Citrus fruits will play an important part In the trade, and every Front-street house has a plentiful supply. Late arrivals of oranges are first-class, and are yaoted at $2 753 25 for navels, and $1 75 2 00 for seedlings. Bananas arrive frequently, and there is always a sufficient supply of pine npples on hand. Such vegetables as cannot be raised In Ore gon at this time of year are brought up from California. Perishable produce comes through Iced and is received In perfect condition. This Is a new departure in this business, and prom ises to revolutionize the shipping trade. The vegetables are packed In wooden coffee bins, with two cakes of Ice in each bin, one near either end. Peas, beans and lettuce are brought up this way. and later in the season other varieties similarly packed will be re ceived. These iced vegetables are shipped by express from Los Angeles to San Francisco, and there placed aboard the Portland steamer. This will be the last week of cheap sweet potatoes. The field supply has been nearly ex hausted, and next week there will be an ad vance of from 2f! to 40r nnr 100, The apple market is slow, with an excessive supply of all Tcinds on hand. The bulk of re ceipts are of Inferior stock, for which there Is no local demand. Choice apples .sell fairly well, and there Is a' shipping inquiry for a limited quantity of the best fruit. This year's output in Oregon far exceeded any possible de mand that could arise for apples. The Indications are that turkeys will be high this- Christmas. So far very few have been received, and some of these sold as high as 20c "Whether the Eupply In the country is large enough for the demand Is a question. Some dealers believe receipts will fall short. The car of Eastern turkeys, mentioned yesterday as on the way to Portland, comes to a large re tailer, and the shipment will not interfere with Front-street commission business. Farmers ana otners wno nave turkeys for the local Christmas market are urged not to hold them back until the last minute. .There is a gol demand for ducks and geese. Chickens arc in heavy supply, and are hard to sell at quota tions. LOXDOHi "WANTS HOPS. Germrtn Cnlilex Report jlarket Firm er at Late Advance. KKW YORK. Dec 18. (Special.) Hops closed steady on light offerings. Cables from London today inquired for choice Pacifies. No sales were heard of. German cables report those markets firmer at yesterday's advance. The prune supply was Increased .today by the arrival of 27,000 boxes. A large percentage of the rcrsjpts go forward to interior buyers. A continued strong tone Is n6ted here, holders showing no disposition to sell. In round lots. Several lots aggregating 1000 boxes of 40-60s were picked up on an export order at 6Hc A stroncr feellnir prevails in 70-SOs nnd 00-100- The Coast wires that these sizes are more dif ficult to obtain. Bids on 40-50s and 50-60s wired out late yesterday brought unfavorable responses from packers. The impression Is strong in all quarters here that the Coast sun- ply Is closely controlled by speculators, and in consequence jobbers will sejl only in small lots. The demand for Oregon prunes is active. A few lots of 3d-40s and 40-50s were moved today for export accoount at 7Uc for the first and Ckc for the latter. In 25-pound boxes. Arrivals of all descriptions for export today numbered 39,000 boxes. Salmon remains steady. Sales covering two cars of sockcye halves were reported at 00c here Red Alaska talis, $1 101 12. Lima beans are unchanged, with little move ment. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain, Flour. Keed.

WALL STREET DEPRESSED BY THE STRAINED SITUATION IN VENEZUELA. Stock Market Held Back From Nat ural Recovery Due to Follow Ac tion Taken by Bankers' Pool. NEW YORK, Dec. 18. Measured by today's advance In prices, the strained situation In Venezuela has been the cause of much more uneasiness than was suspected in "Wall street. The depressing effect of this Influence ha3 served to hold back the market from the nat ural recovery which was due, after the action taken by the bankers' . pool on Monday to In sure the money market from any violent crisis. The fear of such a crisis has been the pre ponderating Influence In the long decline of stocks, and the practical assurance of protec tion from it would have caused a violent re covery In the natural course of things. The fear of a complication with the powers con cerned In the Venezuelan demonstration seems to have been the factor In deferring the re covery. When oprators came down to their offices this morning after reading In the morn ing papers the newfi that the Venezuelan Pres ident had practically abandoned opposition to the demands of Great Britain and Germany, they were quick to Jump to the conclusion that all danger of complication was thereby re moved. There was an upward Jump in prices at the start, and the market showed a con stantly broadening tendency till past midday. The demand after that showed some signs of satisfaction, bu. In the last half-hour there was a revival In animation and a final rush of prices to the top level of the dajv with a strong closing. Sentiment regarding the money outlook has steadily grown more confident. The moral effect of the formation of the bankers' pool has been supplemented by actual favorable de velopments. The banks have been relieved from much of the Subtreasury drain, which has been sapping their resources for several weeks. Sterling exchange here continues heavy, and advanced at Paris, so that no immediate ap prehension Is felt of gold exports. An in creased interior movement of grain and heavier receipts of cotton were encouraging factors. Pool operations were reported to be responsible for the activity and strength of some of the market leaders, and there Is reason to suppose that a very large short Interest was covered today. St. Paul, Southern Pacific, Missouri Pacific and the United States Steel stocks were conspicuous features of the speculation, but there was a long list of securities In which gains ranged from 2 to 3 points. The bond market was active and strong in sympathy with stocks. Total sales, $3,390,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. New York Stock Market. STOCKS.

Cowles, a mining man "whoae home is at Woodburn; but who is Interested In the Sweet Grass &. Park Mining Com pany, whose mines and mlli3 are situated 11,000 feet above sea level in a position commanding a view of thfe Yellowstone Park, is In the city. He read In The Oregonlan about the permanent exhibit which is to be put on display at the union depot here, and says he would like Port land to have the best colleotion of mineral specimens on the Coast. He therefore put up a box of specimena and sent them to F. V. Drake for the exhibit at the depot, and says he wjll send a lot more. Mr. Cowles says Oregon dealers are making their way into the district where he Is mining, and that all the trade of that section will eventually come here. He was displaying yesterday some very handsome specimens of white iron, or cube iron ore, from his mine, which yields gold at the rate of from $10 to $120 per ton. He also had a brick of gold extracted from this ore of a fitting size to carry in one'p pocket, but as he was not offering it for sale no one suspected him of any evil in tentions. He says the mineral wealth of the country where he Is mining cannot be estimated, and he will doubtless supply valuable specimens for the permanent ex hibit i WORTHY INSTITUTION. Sisters of Good Shepherd Awlc for Plain and Fancy JVecdle "Work. The Sisters of the Good Shepherd, who vcre formerly In charge of the ParkTlace Home on the Oregon City trolley line, have assumed charge of the Rescue Home, on East Twentieth and Oregon streets, ande are doirig a very worthy work In reclaiming young girls who have strayed from the path of rectitude.

They are anxious to obtain plain and fancy sewing, such as making bridal robes. They will bo glad to get this kind of work, and as they have recently assumed control of the Home, they are not acquainted in the community. If friends of the Home who desire this class of needlework dono will lot the Sisters know, they will help a very worthy institution. At present there are 14 girls in the Home, who are free to come and go as they see fit. Some needed repairs and im provements are helng made". Baths are being fitted up.
