THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1907. 17 OUTLET FOR FRUIT Seattle Canning Company Is Heavy Buyer in Oregon. SHIPPING TO PUYALLUP But for Scarcity of Refrigerators, 50 or 60 Carloads Would Be Sent Nor tli in the Next Three Weeks. Since the TVebber-Bussell Canning Com pany, of Seattle, opened an office in Port land a short time ago, four cars of Oregon fruit have been forwarded to its cannery at Puyallup. two of them going out last night. Earlier in the season, through buying agents "here, the company secured many cars of cherries and small fruits. Now it Is buying pears, peaches and greengage and egg plums. But for the scarcity of refrigerator cars, W. J. Bruggemann, the Portland rep resentative of the company, says he would ship over to "Washington 50 to 60 cars of Oregon fruit in the next three weeks. The company la in a position to handle that much fruit and growers are offering sup plies liberally, but sufficient cars cannot be secured. Mr. Bruggemann is compelled to put much of his fruit into rold storage for the present. He said yesterday: "We are in no combination with any of the Oregon canneries, but are buying all the fruit we can and are meeting the Oregon canneries' prices. We are not only paying their prices, but are shipping the fruit 200 miles, which makes it an extensive propo sition for us. If we had a cannery here we cou,Id of course handle the fruit to better advantage and the growers would get the benetlt of the freight charges and storage and other expenses. We are building a can nery at Ncwberg which will be of sufficient capacity to handle everything grown in the Chehalem Valley, but it will not be ready for this year's pack. The people there are enthusiastic over it and it has already caused a flurry In real estate. The com pany has Just completed a big cannery at Sumner, Wash., that next year will have a capacity of 200.OOO cases. The citizens tof that town donated the site and a bonus as well. Besides the Puyallup plant, we have another at Yakima with a capacity of 75,000 cases. Portland would be an Ideal place for a cannery, but I am not prepared to say what our plans are in that respect. "The Oregon growers seem to be entirely satisfied with our method of doing business. We are putting many thousands of dollars Into their hands for fruit which otherwise would have been wasted." Mr. Bruggemann says that In spite of rumors that have been circulated, the com pany will maintain its office here and buy fruit throughout the season. M A N Y P K ACHES AND C A NT AI,0 VP ES price on the Lower Grades Are bharply flashed. There were evidences of an accumulation of peaches in the fruit market yesterday, as supplies poured in faster than they could be disposed of. For the best offerings, 50 to 8." cents was obtained, but much poor stuff sold at all kinds of low prices. Many ship ments of Mission Bottom peaches from Grcrviiis are badly infected with dryrot and had to be sacrlliced. The cantaloupe market was also in a bad way as the supply on sale was excessive. Trices ranged all the way from 00 cents to Jl p'r crate. The car of Malaga grapes brought up by the Pearson-Page Company, the first straight car of California grapes ever re ceived here, has already been well cleaned up, and a car of Rose of Peru and Malagas is due Monday. Th,ere is a strong Inquiry for grapes, but some varieties, particularly Thompson Seedless, are in heavy supply and these sold at a very wide range yesterday, the best bringing $1.50, while others only realized 15 cents. Two cars of sweet potatoes came in and the market was quoted easier at 3 cents per pound. The first car of Oregon onions to be shipped this season was sent to San Fran cisco yesterday by McKinley Mitchell. He will dispatch another car Monday and one on Friday. (MB AND RED WHEAT ARE LOWER J-ocal Quotations Decline on Receipt of Easier Cables. The local wheat market lost some of the rcrent advance yesterday. Club and red KusMan were quoted 1 cent lower, but blue stem was unchanged. The drop followed the receipt of private cables reporting a slight ly eas-icr closing of the Liverpool market. Freights also advanced, shipowners aRklng 2s yd, although there has been no official advance in the combine's rate. A charter was mado yesterday at 27s d, but exporters say it Is hardly possible to get another vessel at this figure. The stability of the present wheat quotations will depend on the course of the Liverpool market today. Should there be an advance there it will be con sidered as a good sign as showing that the foreigners are in need of wheat. CONDITION OF HOPS IN EUROPE. Weather Favorable in England and Hops Are Improving. Klaber, Wolf & Netter yesterday received tho fotlowing cable from their London office on the condition of the hop crops in Europe: "England Weather favorable and crop improving slightly. . "Bohemia Estimates have to be reduced. "Germany Estimate is raised from 450, 00 cwt. to 470.(HK) cwt. and quality turn ing out very tine." Farm Produce Is Without C hange. The market for farm produce was without change yesterday. Poultry receipts were not as large as they have 'been, but the demand was slow and sales dragged. Ranch eggs were scarce and firm. Butter continues to be quoted at various prioes, with the city creameries showing no disposition to get together. Oregon Pears fcell High in East. MEDKOHD. Or., Aug. '.9.( Special.) TcU'gruphir reports from Eastern markets today concerning the sale of Bartlett pears from t Ills valley are mott encouraging. Some eiht cars have already been heard from which averaged a net price to the growers of nearly per box f. o. h. cars. A car of Bear Creek Orchard's pears, con signed by C- H. Lewis to Boston, is the record sale so far, having brought $4..s per box, netting the shippers $.i.ol at Medford. t Bank Clearing.

FEW BUYING ORDERS Demand Falls Away in the Stock Market. CLOSING TONE IS HEAVY Brokers Xot Disposed to Carry Com mitments Over the Two Holi days Selling Causes a Gen eral Decline. " NEW YORK. Aug. 29. Stocks opened with moderate fractional advances. The first dealings were active and varied but the de mand ceased and most of the prominent stocks declined slightly below yesterday's closing. A loss of one point In Union Pa cific induced light selling generally. Great Northern 'ore certificates rose K. St. Paul preferred 2 and National Biscuit l'A. Prices were uncertain and drooping and buying was not aggressive enough to rally quotations. The Mackay Company's pre,; f erred and Northern Pacific declined IVi, Amalgamated Copper and Great Northern preferred 1. The market closed rather heavy and al most stagnant. Declines were slightly ex tended, after which a languid demand devel oped to cover shorts. Long Island sold at a decline of 5 and Pittsburg, C. C. & St. L. 1. Distillers rose 34. The following report of the New York stock market and the closing range of prices was received by private wire by the Overbeck & Cooke Company, of thi city: NEW YORK. Aug. 29. Today's stock mar ket might be called a typical holiday affair. Trading was much smaller than for several weeks past and toward the latter part of the seseion many brokers had left the floor and the market was left to care for Itself. The principal transactions of the day were mostly the evening up of contracts In anticipation of the coming holidays, Saturday and Mon day. This, with slightly higher call money, induced many longs to let go, who have no desire to carry any commitments over until next Tuesday, and this selling caused a sag King tendency with prices through the list making net losses of from 14 to IM points for the day's transactions. Otherwise there was no selling pressure and it looks as If liquida tion had run its course, at least for the time being. The market closed irregular and gen erally lower and uninteresting. Sales for the day, 318.000 shares. James J. Hill Is quoted as saying in an In terview: "I do not view the general situation and outlook witlT any alarm whatever. Person ally 1 should think that present prices are at about the lowest. I do not see how they can go much lower.' CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. OpenHlgh Low Closo Amal. Copper Co 7114 71(4 70 Amer.

Administration's Activities, Howev er, Meet With the Approval of the Fleeced Lambs. NEW YORK. Auk. 20. Wall Street may naturally be expected to take more than pasMnx interest in the warfare between President Roosevelt and the "malefactors of great wealth,' whom he castigated in his speech at Provlncetowrf. The only part of the Street that is for the President is the bear party, for whom his strenuous activi ties have helped pile up fortunes. Indeed the Street has adopted the "teddy bear" as the fittest emblem of the times. But the big fellows who were hoping for a reaction In tne .aggressive campaign against corpora tions are sick and disgusted. It Is safe to say that no enormous majority would be rolled up for the President If a straw vote were taken at any representative direc tors meeting. Naturally, Wall Street as a whole, is 1101 In favor of anything that would destroy some of its biggest men and so in bent on doing some destroying itself. These re marks by one of the most prominent brok erage houses here serves to Indicate the feeling that actuates the majority :r "It Is well to know once for all, perhaps, that, no matter how serious the result may he, as has been partially proven by the steps already taken, the men in control of the Government do not Intend to budge one iota from the course . planned, so that such measures can be taken as American com mon ssn.se will surely devise to eliminate this dangerous Influence before irreparable damage - has been surtained." - And yet, stripped of all its verbiage, the President merely says that for the rest of his admin istration "there will be no let-up in the effort to secure the honest observance of the Jaw." Wall Street men line up against the Pres ident not as "malefactors," for they refuse to regard themselves as such and Indeed many men of prominence in the financial district are free in their criticism -of the men and methods that the administration is making war upon. It is the manner In which the Government is cleaning the Au gean stabies of financial chicanery that makes Wall Street sore. The fear ia felt that typhus germs will be let loose that will destroy forever the public taste for the water that is such a standard article of commerce hereabout. Wall Street would have the President first thoroughly fumi gate the premises, then separate the sheep from the goats and go after the goats in such an approved, kindly, kid-gloved fash ion that would not be calculated to arouse the bacteria of socialism that have waxed fat on recent developments. Meanwhile the public looks on like spec tators at a tragedy. And its thumbs are down. It is with the President and' it wants the trusts put out of the way of doing harm. Naturally it Is not willing to supply Wall Street with the munitions of war. It is not buying stocks, yet. Former lambs take not a little vengeful delight in listening to the real thing in the way of squeals from the professional bulls. DEPBESSIDN III GRAIN PIT ALIi WHEAT OPTIONS CLOSE LOWER AT CHICAGO. Oats and Corn Also Off Sharp De clines Are Recorded In Provisions. CHICAGO, Auk. 29. Weakness prevailed in all the grain pits today. September wheat opened at 91c, an advance of c over the closing of yesterday, but began to ease off almost immediately after the open ing. On a slight rally there was an ad vance of c, but the closing was weak at 89 c. December opened at 98 c and after touching 97c, closed at 93c. May wheat was up to $1.04 at one time of the day but closed at $1.02, a decline of lc from the opening. September corn opened at 60c and closed at a loss of c. December lost c and May c. The fluctuations in oats were slight, Sep tember closing c under the opening price. Provisions were also weak. September pork closed 12c down; lard was 10c lower, and ribs were off 2c. The following report of the Chicago grain market and range of , futures were received by private wire by the Overbeck & Cooke Company, of this city: CHICAGO, Aug. 29. Wheat It was clearly demonstrated today that this wheat market needs considerable news, if not bullish advices from the Northwest, to hold prices at this level, or especially any tem porary advances. The trade had strong cables this morning and not knowing the exact cauFe of the strength on the other side, started a buying movement at the opening. On this strong upturn, we urged profit-taking cn the part of the holders be cause It looked like a Itemporary swell which would not hold. Holders were eager for profits on the swells and the market had rathor poor support late in the day. Think prices are likely to see a break be fore "Trenh buying will be followed. Corn The strength In Liverpool was due to a scare of shorts and scarcity of car goes. Local houses reported very light country acceptance last night. On the other hand, the shippers claim that supplies are so scarce that they have to make sales on 15 to U0-day shipments. Iowa report cams very bad again today, as that state was snaked by heavy rain last night. Unless there Is Improved weather to mature the late corn. or very much larger sales on the part of the country, the best people in the corn trade say tljat a further advance in prices is likely In the near future. The Iowa slate crop report shows good condition of small grain and progress being made In field-plowing. Reports indicate light yields and light weight of oats. Winter and Spring wheat fair yield and quality good. Corn made a good advance, though the nights ' are cold tor rapid growth. Pastures are in good condition. Receipts of wheat are 879,009 bushels against 458,000: corn, 358,000 against 891, 000. The shipments are: Wheat, 430.000 against 407,000; corn, 302.000 against 2S9. 000.
