17 THE MORMSG 3REGOXIAN. FRIDAY, APRIL, 12, 1907. TOP ON POTATOES Two Cents a Pound Paid for Fancy Stock. RECORD OF THE SEASON Minnesota Potatoes Reach the Local Market Onions Will Soon Be Here From Texas, but Will Sell Vrry UlRh. Two cents a pound was paid a grower yes terday for Oregon potatoes. This is the rec ord price of tho season. The purchase wa? made by McKlnley Mitchell, who secured a carload of strictly fancy stock at Fair view. It was the last lot of this quality re maining in Eastern Multnomah. The supply of Oregon potatoes in first hands Is beginning to run low, except some veTy Inferior stock for which there Is no market at aJ. To provide for the wants of their customers the Jobbers of the city have ordered rather freely from the East and speculators have also made purchases in the Eastern States for delivery here. The first of the imported stock arrived yester day, when two cars of Minnesota potatoes reached this city. Owing to the congestion .t the freight yards, the cars were not un loaded. Tfce San Francisco potato market was hard hit yesterday, according to a wire re ceived in the evening by Mr. Mitchell. The day's arrivals at the Bay City were 11 cars from Oregon and 10 from the But, These receipts proved too heavy and prices could not be sustained, quotations dropping to $2 1 1 - i.i- The San Francisco onion market, however, was firmer, advancing to 14. 50 per hundred. Outside sections have also been drawn upon to make up for the shortage of onions In this atate. A carload of new crop yellow Bermuda onlonB is due from Texas in a week or ten days. They will probably sell at So a pound. Oregon onions were firmly held on Front street yesterday at 3c a pound, with a further advance likely before the end of the week. FREIGHT CONGESTION HURTS JOBBERS Perishable Produce at Terminal Yards, but Cannot Be Unloaded. The freight congestion at the terminal yards is being severely felt by the produce Jobbers. Carlots of perishable stuff are ar riving dally, but deliveries are not prompt, which not only causes the dealers great in convenience, but threaten them with loss. In the yards yesterday were two cars of ornnges and two of cabbage, one from Los Angeles and one from San Francisco, but as they were not on the team tracks, they could not be unloaded. The day's deliveries Included a car of mixed vegetables and a car of San Francisco cabbage. The demand for vegetables was brisk. Local rhubarb was more plentiful and de clined to 5c per pound. A small quantity of Oregon asparagus was received and sold at $1 per dozen bunches. Aurora asparagus will be In in a few days. City Butter at One Prlo. Weakness was apparent in the butter mar ket yesterday and the creameries that had not already done so reduced their quota tion to 32 The supply on Front street was large and one commission house offered its stock at 80c. Eggs moved generally at 20c with the sup ply only moderate. There was a strong demand for chickens and the usual light receipts. Sales of Scouring Wools. There has been some movement In scour ing wools in Eastern Oregon, a few lots changing hands In the last few days. No buying on shipping account has, yet taken place. Mohair Is beginning to arrive more freely and sells In tho open market at 20c. Dressed Meats Plentiful. Receipts of dressed meats are on the In crease. A great many poor veal are arriv ing, for which there is no demand, the trad preferring the best at top prices rather than the others at a big cut Bank Clearings. Clearing-.

Conflicting influ ences kept the wheat market In a nervous state. Early In the session, sentiment was quite bearish because of the Weather Bu reau report which predicted scattered rains I throughout the Southwell tonight, lnclud- lng portions of Kansas and Missouri. The : market was further weakened by an esti- I mate of the amount of wheat which will be exported from Argentina this week, the total shipments being placed at nearly 1 ,000.000 bushels more than those of last week. Local and outside longs sold freely on these advices. The market then rallied sharply on urgent demand by commission houses, which was prompted by the large number of damage reports received from the Southwest. The continued dry weather In Nebraska and other parts of the Winter wheat belt attracted almost as much at tention as did the green-bug reports. Late in the day the market again weakened with the distant deliveries showing the greatest declines. The close was fairly steady. May wheat opened unchanged to c higher at 77 c to 77 c, sold off to 77 Mc and then advanced to 780. The close was at 77-)c. Leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. Low.

NEED MORE MONEY In Spite of Easier Rates, Wall Street Is Apprehensive. REQUIREMENTS ARE LARGE Operations In the Stock Market Are More Aggressive, but Still In Professional Hands Eng lish Bank Rate Reduced. NEW YORK, April 1L The struck mar ket was still largely In professional hands today, but operations were conducted in a more aggressive manner and were extended to greater lengths. Such strength as the market showed was most !n evidence In the early part of the day. Part of this was In response to a rise In the London market, as a result of the reduction in the official discount rate of the Bank of England from 5 to 4 per cent. The early results were furthered by the bull party by manipulative devices. The substantial effect of the Eng lish bank rate reduction was. In fact, small. The previous course of the money market gave ample warning of the action and every opportunity for discounting it in the se curities markets. In some quarters an ex pectation had been expressed that the re duction would be a full 1 per cent instead of . The weekly statement of the Bank of England fully explained the action of the Governors, the bullion holdings show ing a large accretion and the loans a con siderable contraction. Not only this, but a heavy decline In Government deposits and a corresponding Increase In other deposits showed the transfer by Government expendi tures of largo sums to the money market. The private rate of discount continued to decline also, as it did in Paris, the Bank of France showing a substantial contraction of loans, although the Increase In gold hold ings was but smalL Notwithstanding this general yielding of money ra les all over the world, the stock market begins to reflect misgivings over Its sufficiency to meet the large waiting de mands. Signs of a movement of currency back to the interior also give warning of the large requirements. The dilemma is presented of tight money markets, owing to continued demands upon circulation from active trade, or sustained ease In money by reason of some reaction in trade and the consequent reduction in earning power on share capital. Another influence In the day's market was the report from Washington of the decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission to advance proceedings against the Harriman Railroad system as a combination in re straint of trade within the meaning of the law. The London copper market showed a disposition to break again and this served to awaken some uneasiness over the market position of that metal, notwithstanding the asseverations of the great producers as to the soundness of the position. Iron trade au thorities also testified to the undiminished strength of that trade. United States Steel was compasmttvely firm, but this did not sustain the general market. The closing tone was Bteady and at bonie recovery from the lowest. Bonds were dull and irregular. Total sales, par value, $1,480,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

On Wednesday, April 10, under the head-, lng of "Free Water vs. Water at Cost," The Oregonlan makes five mistakes of facts. I am sending you two copies of the free water amendment, so you will not make such mistakes in the future, and ask you to correct those mistakes that you have made, as I believe The Oregonlan wished to deal fairly and with facts at all times. When you say that the money with which to operate the Water Department would have to be raised by general taxation, such is not the case, as we are now collecting $75,000 for water for commercial and Irri gating purposes, and all it will cost to op- erate the Water Department Is $40,000 per year. Again, you say. "All water consumed by the city and for commercial purposes would have to be paid for." This is not the fact. No such statement nor contemplation Is thought of by the free-water people, and Is not Included any place In the proposed law. Again, you aay it is planned to Install me ters In all households where more than a certain amount of water la consumed to prevent waste. Again this is not true, and that matter has never been advocated by anybody connected with the free-water movement. Again, you say that the extension of mains as provided for in the amendment would be accomplished by a frontage tax. This also la not true, and haa never been thought of, but, on the contrary, it is pro vided for in the district asseasment the same as sewers and drains are provided for un der chapter 6, article 6, of the city charter. Temporary mains or small pipes four Inches and less can be laid by the Water Board and charged to the abutting property, which Is only common sense. Again, you say that the interest on the bonded indebtedness under the water bill submitted by the Water Board and the City Council would be paid for by general tax ation. This is not the case, as the bill pro vides that the $160,000 Interest on bonds must be paid by the water consumers, as It Is now. As to the bridge amendment to the city charter, which was passed by the Legisla ture of 1905, let me say that this amend ment is of a very vicious nature. It was conceived, in Iniquity and was passed on the people by a bunco trick. Its main purpose was to build bridges for the Portland Con solidated Railway Company, as It expressly provides that no bridge can be built from this fund If It costs less than $15,000. That, I In other words. Is saying that no bridge can be built; with this fund unless built strong enough for the Portias! hallway Company to run cars on the same. In the phraseology of the graft lawmakers who drew thla bill. it provided that the railway company shall pay their "Just" portion of cost, as pro vided for by the "ordinance of franchise of said city," thus leartng it entirely to a Council that could be "easily convinced" aa to what waa "Juat" by the railway company. Let any one who wishes try to defend this : bridge law as it appears today upon the : city charter. It is one of the bills that I was passed without sufficient publicity to i let the people know what Its true meaning was. The Free-Water Association will issue an address to the voters of Portland, setting j forth the facts In regard to the free-water amendment to the city charter, the only j amendment that haa been printed and dis- j trlbuted among the people. It Is the only amendment that has sufficient genuine sig natures from the people for Its submission. Thanking The Oregonlan for the publicity whloh It has allowed the Free-Water Asso ciation in the past and for the services thr.t it has tendered to ths people of Portland, wo thank you again in advance for the pub lication of this statement, and hope that you will give it as prominent a place as you will give the other side of the question.
