. THE MORNING OBEGONIAN, TUESDAY, JANUAB 26;- 190i. POTATOES CO SOUTH Heavy Shipping Movement to San Francisco. MARKET THERE IS EXCITED Prices Are High Under Manipulation -Conditions Are Artificial and Not Expected to Continue Very Long. The movement In potatoes has reached the largest volume for the season, and Is only . limited by the transportation facilities. Twelve i thousand sacks were on the dock for shipment by the last steamer, and only 3000 sacks were taken. At least J 2, 000 sacks were on Alns wsrth dock yesterday, and by the time the steamer sails 16,000 or 17,000 sacks will be on hand. Of this quantity It is not likely that over 11,000 or 12,000 sacks will be taken below. This may be enough, however, to weaken the San Francisco market. In addi tion to the steamer shipments, considerable quantities are going down by rail, one firm alone sending a lot of seven carloads. The Ban Fraaolsco potato market Is in an excited condition, and prices are soaring; but, as It Is largely the result of manipulation, values there are out of proportion to what is being paid at shipping points. While the shortage of transportation facilities from here Is one cause of the strength of that market, the real influence is the fact that Salinas are being held In few bands, and rivers are nearly all cleaned up, except those In stor age. Those fortunate enough to have Salinas are holding them for higher prices, and the trade Is forced to buy Oregon Burbanks. Ac cording to private advices, Oregon potatoes have sold there as high, as $1.45, but only one small lot. The bulk of offerings ranged from $1.10 to $1.25. Potatoes ar plentiful here, and receipts are Increasing. According to men In the potato business, the present excited condition of the market Is only temporary. They look for prices to get back, to the normal basis In a few days and remain - there for three or four weeks. The onion market Is weak on a poor local demand and a full supply. The shipping In quiry Is slow. CLACKAMAS WOOL TOOL. Will Be Formed at Time Comity Grange Meets.. OREGON CITY. Jan. 25. (Special.) The Canges of Clackamas County have decided .3 defer until March 8 the matter' of form ing a pool of the wool clip this year. At that time the Clackamas County Granges will hold their convention in Oregon City for the purpose of naming delegates to attend the state meeting of the Grange. An estimate will be submitted at the county ccnvcntlon of the probable amount of wool that will be Included In the pool. The forming of a pool of the mohair clip of Clackamas County has been referred to tho Jlolalla Grange, since the farmers of that soctlon of the country are practically the only ones Interested in such a pool. Tor price rou hops. -Sonoma Grower lTecelves 28yfc Cents for 150 Bales. - SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 25. (Special.) The highest price paid for hops In California since 1693 was given this afternoon In Santa Rosa. L. D. Jacks sold 150 bales of this year's crop to C. C. Donovan for 2S"4 cents. Last week the market was 27 cents, and It was believed It had then reached its extreme limit. The year 1803 was a record-breaker for prices, and since that time hops have been disposed of at from 12 to 20 cents. Several hundred acres of new bops are being set out in this county at the present time. Growers who have not sold yet will reap a rich harvest. Early In the reason 23 cents was looked upon as a high mark to be attained by growers by combining and holding. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain. Flour.

In addition to fancy creamery, an extra grade sweet cream butter will also be quoted. The current prices on butter fkt will also be given. Eggs were a shade weaker, with better ar rivals from the country aad a good 6upply of California eggs coming In. The latter were Irzm the Petaluma district, large, white and ittractlve looking. They sold at the same price as Oregon ranoh stock. There was but Uttle Inquiry for poultry, and the coops car ried over from last week were hard to move.

Wheat Is Stronger, Despite the Collapse at Chicago. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 25. (Special.) Rain predicted by the Weather Bureau did not ma terialize, and despite the Chicago collapse, wheat was stronger here, while a continuation of the dry spell strengthened barley, oats, hay and feedstuff. The feeling is that unless good soaking rains soon come, prices for all these products must go higher, as stocks are stead ily being reduced. The weather has not turned warm enough to revive the market for citrus fruits, and all varieties are selling low. Ten carloads of oranges auctioned today at $1.30 to $2.80 for fancy Redlands and 40 cents to $1.80 for standard to fancy from other districts. Aside from fancy Newtown Pippins, the apple market Is quieter and easier, with supplies liberal.. Potatoes and onions are firm, and tomorrow's arrivals from Oregon should bring good prices, Butter Is steady. Cheese Is demoralized. Eggs are steady.

REACTION IN STOCKS UPWARD MOVEMENT BROUGHT TO A SUPDEN STOP. Unloading by Big Speculative Inter- ests-Outside Public Holds Aloof Frorn Trading. NEW YORK. Jan. 23. The movement of prices, which had crept slowly upward until last Thursday, when they began to advance rapidly on a large volume of business, turned backward today and showed net losses on the day's business. The weakness was not at any time acute, and there was a period of strengtn after the opening. but this was palpably availed of to sell stock. The reactionary tendency rained force as the day advanced. and the closing was weak aad ochre. Many of the leading active stocks lost 162 points. These included St- Paul and the grangers, Pacifies and Southwestern and United States SteeJ preferred. These declines are by no means severe, after so considerable an ad vance as has taken place, but the reaction was decisive and unmistakable. There was not much more news to accompany it than there had been-on the advance, which had bees ad mittedly due to the operations cn the long side, including manipulative tactics of a pow erful bull party. What happened in stocks was very similar to what happened in wheat. In that market the news of severe cold in the winter wheat belt and renewal of war rumors entitled the market to an advance. The moderation of the advance awakened the suspicion of the traders that the big speculative interests were unload ing, and a slump in wheat resulted. The same state nf doubtful sentiment obtains In the stock market. The Jack of evidence of any large share In the buying by the outside public helps to keep the apprehensions of the pro fessionals awake. London made a .substantial demonstration of the renewed fears of war by selling some 60,000 shares of stocks in New York. A mature consideration of the Satur day bank statement did not help to reassure the speculative mind. Weakness In the cop per market, a stock brokerage failure in Balti more, one or two minor banking embarrass ments elsewhere and several reports of de creased net earnings of railroads for Decem ber aggravated the downward tendency. The points of strength in the market were due to special causes, and the gains were generally lost before the close. Bonds Ware active and Irregular. Total sales. $4,085,000.

The selling was Increased by late Liverpool cables, which showed some weakness, and also by the large world's shipments. The climax wa3 reached on heavy selling by brokers who were said to be acting for the Armour Interests. In con sequence of this change of front by the pres ent leading holder the market started to break. On the down turn many stop loss or ders came Into the pit and hastened the de cline.
