No dam aging frosts fi&va been reported, but high winds have slightly Injured the wheat crop In Umatilla County and retarded the growth of Spring grain. In Union County. "Wire and cut worms arts also reported to bo doing slight damaga in some sections, but in general the condition of wheat, oats, barley and rye la promising, although these crops are backward. Grass and pasturage are now making splendid growth in the western, part of the state, and the flow of milk in the dairy districts Is ex cellent, both as to quantity and quality. Sheep shearing is advancing slowly, and the clip continues to be reported light. Plowing land for Summer fallow Is nearly completed, and corn, land Is mostly all planted. Corn is coming up slowly, owing to the cool weather. Reports from the hop growing dis tricts are that the crop is quite uneven, and the number of missing hills is much greater than usual. The new yards are doing better than the old ones. Gardens and potatoes are promising. Sugar beet planting is well ad vanced and tha plants are coming up to good stands. Reports on fruit are somewhat conflicting, , with the prospects generally favorable for good crops of berries, cherries, pears and plums. Peaches will be light, and It Is too early to estimate closely regarding apples. COAST DISTRICT. Clatsop, Clatsop County, D. F.

' EDWARD A. BEALS. Section Director. Portland. Or. General Crop Report. WASHINGTON. May JO.-The weekly crop report of the Weather Bureau is as follows: All northern and central districts east of the Rocky Mountains experlssced highly favorable temperatures during the week ending May IS. the central valleys. Lake region and New Eng land receiving ample and much-needed warmth while in the Southern States It was too cold for favorable growth. The very general absence- of rain in New England and the Middle Atlantic States and over & large part of the Lake region and Ohio Valley has intensified drouth In these districts, in consequence of which crops have mads slow progress. The East Gulf States and portions of the Lower Missouri and Mississippi Valleys have suffered from excessive rains. On the Pacific Coast the week was rather cool, with no rain over the greater part of California. There were gen erally good rains in Washington, with light showers over a large part of Oregon, but mere rain is needed In the last-named state. Com planting has been further delayed by rains In the states of the Lower Missouri Val ley, and by drouth In the Ohio Valley. Middle Atlantic States and portions of the Lake region. Planting is well advanced In the Dakotas. and. notwithstanding the wet soil in Iowa and Mis souri, has vigorously been pushed In those states. Winter wheat has made favorable progress In Nebraska and Minnesota, but in Southern Mis souri and In the states northward of the Ohio River and In the Middle Atlantic States, the crop has suffered further deterioration. In the Spring wheat region the weather conditions have been highly favorable for germination and growth of Spring wheat, which Is coming up to good stands with rigorous plants. In the Northern Rocky Mountain States, the growth of Spring wheat has been slow; In Washington and Oregon the outlook Is very promising. In the Missouri Valley, Oklahoma and Texas a general improvement in the condition of oats is indicated, but In the Ohio Valley, Middle Atlantic States and the greater part of the Lake regions, the condition of the crop is less favorable, owing to the effects of drouth. There Is general complaint throughout the cot ton belt of the unfavorable effects of low tem perature on cotton. Good stands, as a rule, are reported In the central district, but In the eastern and western portions the stands are irregular, and much replanting Is necessary. Further Improvement In the outlook for apples is Indicated, but the prospects tor most of other tree fruits are very poor. SALE3I BERRY OUTPUT. Contract SI pried for Its Dlnponnl Local Market Overlonded. The Salem Fruitgrowers Union, composed of fruitgrowers In the territory around Salem, has signed a contract with a Portland distributing firm to handle Its fruit output this season. Of strawberries, the union will turn over about 25,000 crates, a part of which will be cannery stock. Later, the distributors will handle blackberries, rarpbcrrlcs, apples, pears, plums and peaches. The local strawberry market Is still over loaded, a portion of each days receipts being carried over every day. California berries in good condition are selling at Jl1.25 per crate, but poor stock Is offering at almost any figure. Oregon berries aer fairly plentiful, but many of the arrivals show the effect of rain. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain. Flour, Feed, Etc With no foreign inquiry for our wheat, and consequently an Inactive local market, the fluctuations that are taking place In Eastern grain centers are practically without effect here.

Cc CROP DAMAGE IN SOUTHWEST. Leads to Plentiful Bnylns Orders in Chicago Wheat Pit. CHICAGO. May 10. Trading In wheat was dull the early part of the day. but later In the session more activity was manifested, buy ing orders being plentiful on reports of dam age in the Southwest. Opening prices were easier on lower cables and on reports of con tinued rains in Manitoba, July being off HOKc at 72-4.G73C The extreme dullness or trade early in the day and lower outside markets had a depressing Influence, and prices declined still further. July selling off to 7272T.ic The Illinois and Indiana crop reports were some what bullish, and Imparted a better tone to values, but trading continued slow during the last half hour, when reports from the South west came In and a good demand developed from pit traders and commission houses. The offerings, however, were limited, and in con sequence prises advanced rapidly. Jujy celling up to 74474sc The close was near the top, July being up lffltjc. at 74c There was a light trade in corn, with prices steady, tho small country acceptances being the main feature. July closed 4Sc higher, at 44JS44c Trading In oats was dull, and confined main ly to the traders. July closed !4ffTsC higher, at 34c Provisions were traded In quite actively, and a strong tone prevailed. The strength was caused by a good general demand, and with very little for sale.

DeTravrard Coarse of Prices Believed to Be Arrested The Professional Traders Go to the Baylagr Side. NEW YORK, May 10. Today's recovery In the stock market was in accordance with the expectation of the majority of professional traders. This expectation conduced materially to the recovery by restraining the professional bear element from further attacks on prlees. Yesterday's rather violent declines and the Increase in the volume of trading over the recent average of the market gave the im pression of a culmination of the decline. There was some further decided liquidation In the market this morning, but the profes sional bear element availed ltcelf of this op portunity to cover their outstanding short contracts. There was evidence of support alo. presumably by those interested In sus taining values, especially In St. Paul and New York Central. The recent unsupported condition of these standard stocks had had a dominant Influence on the whole speculative tone and this morning's Indications that the further drain was to be contested helped decide the bears to cover. The lonr continued de cline offered attractive profits for the bulls, regardless of opinions on the further specu lative oufiook. The professionals, therefore, generally turned to the buying side, covering their short contracts, going long In the mar ket and theft working- for a further delay. There was very little news to account for this change In sentiment, the general conditions of a doubtful labor outlook, prospects of fur ther gold exports and considerations which have caused the recent depression being un changed. The market proved to be sufficiently oversold to make the turn for & rise effectual. But the market "bulled hard," in the 8tock Exchange phrase, and ran off quits easily at the last, leaving only fractions of the day's gains, where they were not entirely wiped out. On the labor subject there were reports of disputes In the works of the General Electric Company, Republic Steel, People's Gas and Allls-Chambers Works. But the rumors preval ent of a settlement of the Union Pacific labor dispute bad a prevailing effect on the mar ket over the other reports. The rumors, with the report of the decided Improvement In the condition of E. H. Harrlman's health, were made much of In the buying movement. So was the weekly crop bulletin of the Weather Bureau, without much attention to the vary ing showing In the territories of the dlffer cnt railway systems. The generally encour aging reports as to the Winter wheat crop in the Western States were given more attention than the continued delay In the planting of the ccm crop and the rather unfavorable view expressed of the cotton prospect. The sudden relapse in Louisville & Nashville at the last, which more than wiped out Its galnJroay have had to do with tho cotton showing. An other rumor which got afloat on the tide of the day's advance was an alleged purpose on the part of the Secretary of tho Treasury to an ticipate the redemption of the 5 per cent bonds which mature next year.. No color of authority was obtainable for this rumor. Sterling exchange ruled strong and supply bills was very scarce, leading to the expec tation that further gold would go abroad with the first available shipping facilities. Sterling at Paris rose a fraction, but did not more than keep pace with the rise here. Money here continued easy and there were reports of seven months' loans at 4 which rate has not ap plied hitherto this season for longer oerlods than six months. United States Steel new 5s were actively traded in and fluctuated over a range of a point, closing with a net gain of ri- Otherwise the bond market was Irregular. Total sales, par value. $3,825,000.

The cotton market opened at an advance of 4 to 9 points. . May closed at 11.64c; July. 11.21c; August. 10.95c. and September at 9.78c. November scored tha biggest advance, closing at 9.22c, against 8.91c last night. Tout sales futures estimated at SO0.O00 bales. The enormous gains of yesterday effected no decrease In bullish excitement and enthusiasm, and the opening of the market today was on a of the most notable of an eventful season. Tno Irregularity of Liverpool after our pronounced advance, the prospects for receipts again more than double last year, and the expectations of a bearish weekly bureau report, as opposed to the bullish utterances credited to the New Orleans Leader, all added to the rush and con fusion. First prices here were 4Q0 points high er, and Immediately following the call bull ag gressiveness and further covering by shorts sent prices to another new high level for the season. July selling at 11.36c. August at 11.02c and September at 9.73c After opening 8-U10 points higher, Liverpool reported unsettled cbn dltions, and reached a level 11613 points higher on the near month. Later there was a break of about 5 points, which brought prices back to Just a little over local expectations. The strength In spot cot ton at Liverpool was again a remarkable fea ture, quotations being advanced 18 points there, but the trading showed a marked decrease. At the best point of this morning profit-taking became more general, and before midday prices had declined 8j?25 points. The traders continually were feeling for the top. and this naturally brought In a considerable volume of scalping orders on the short side. The violent efforts to cover which followed caused another sharp advance, and within ten minutes July sold up from 11.17c to 11.24c; August from 10.91c to 10.97c, and September from 9.65 to 9.72c. The midday rally apparently exhausted the Immediate demands from shorts, and was fol lowed by another decline. Just before the fin ish the trading was once more very spirltea, and a partial rally took place. The general list closed net 7 to 31 porats higher, the great est gain being In November.

House Defeats Proposition of Gov ernor to Advertise Islands. HONOLULU. May 13. via San Francisco. May 19. Governor Dole has sent a spe cial message to the Legislature recom mending some further appropriations. Among them is one for advertising the Islands on the mainland -with a view to attracting tourists. The proposition was defeated after a long debite in the House. The statement that Japan has relin quished claim to Marcus Island is re peated here by those who are Interested in the American claim to the island. The State Departme"ht disclaims any knowl edge of such action by Japan in a letter to a Honolulu inquirer. The war cloud In the Orient has led to the discussion of the status of the 50.000 Japanese in Hawaii. It Is estimated that 25,000 of them are subject to recall for military service under the Mikado. The problem of transportation would be a difficult one. Big: Machinery Company Bankrupt. PROVIDENCE. R. I.. Mav 19.
