THE MOKMXG OREGONIAX, SATURDAY, JUNE G, 1908. 17 MOVEMtHTIS LARGE Early .California Fruit Ship ment in Full Swing. APRICOTS THE FEATURE riums Widely Distribute J In the Different Auction Markets. Strawberries the Feature of the Loca I Fru it Trade. Local arrivals of California fruits are in creasing steadily and a better assortment is now available. The heavy shipping season in California has practically commenced. Of the movement of early fruits out of the - state in the-paM week the California Fruit Distributors write: Cherries, 31 cars Weather hss remained clear but cool; satisfactory weather for picking: and packing- There should be a slight increase in cherry shipments fur the next seven days. Apricots, lit car? On account of the gen eral good crop of apricots in the different districts, the volume of shipments has in creased faster than usual and in a few days we will be right Into apricot shipping and by the latter part of the week shipments will attain the volume of 15 and 2o cars a day. Apricots are not large, but they are clean and nice. Plums and prunes, 10 cars The plums shipped consisted mostly of CI y mans and have gone forward In different cars and have been widely distributed to the different auction markets. Other varieties of plums and prunes are growing nicely in all re spects. Peaches, 1 car These consisted prin cipally of Alexanders and small shipments in different cars. There will be an increase in peach shipments for the next seven days, but on account of the reduced acreage of the earlier varieties, shipments will not be large. Pears Still doing nicely; crop prospects good. Stock will be very clean. STRAWBERRIES BECOMING CHEAPER Improved Demand for Cherries and Apricots at Declining Price. Strawberry prices are gradually getting down to a reasonable basis. Local berries began to come in yesterday, and though not equal to the Hood Rivers or Southern Oregons. they met with favor, selling at $3 6?3-25 per crate. Hood Rivers and Gold Dollars were quoted at ?4 and other Valley berries at $3 75 per crate. California cher ries were in liberal supply and a few boxes of Oregons were received. Apricots are also moving better and are lower at $1.35&130 per crate. ' V. Among the carlot receipts yesterday were a car each of oranges and lemons. Poor Outlook for California Prune. A California, prune packer, who has been Investigating prune-crop prospects in that state, thus summarizes the situation: The total amount of prunes for the en tire state out of the crop we cannot rleure at a maximum to exceed 20.oi0 to U.i.ihh tons. Considering this small prospec tive crop and the further fact that the hold ing of Iim-7 crop in California, forming tnot exceeding 3."i( carloads, are extremely small in comparison with the carryover of pre vious years, the question as to values which 4 will rule for the carry-over of the lHi7 crop and the new ltW-S crop, speaks for it pelt, and it would not surprise us in the .past to see prices ruling much higher than the highest of last year's quotations. Do not forget thnt the average export shipments for the In ft five years have been approxi mately 2n.0H tons per annum. Iast year fully l7,t'K tons were shipped for export in the face of the 107 high prices." Engl tab. Hop Trade. RngMsh trade circulars, dated May 18 to 2-4. rwport market conditions as follows: Wild, Xeame & Co., London Since our last report a fair quantity, of hops has pastu-d into consumers hands, which, while not effecting iiy appreciable alteration in value, has in duced a rather better feeeling on our mar ket. Manger & Henley, London A eteady in quiry continues for bright color samples and good copper hops, but the amount of busi ness carried through i within narrow limits. Prices remain unchanged. W. H. & H. Ie May. London There Is rather a better inquiry on this market for all qualities. Prices are certainly tempting to any one wishing to stock up. , Cattley, Gridley & Co.. London There is somewhat firmer feeling upon the market as storks become more limited, and choice hops are extremely ;arce. The change to fine weather ha given the young plant a good start. , J, H. Meredith & Co., "Worcester There has been a little more Inquiry on the market and OS rockets of growers' hops passed the public sale last week, values remaining with out quotable alteration. Plantation growth !e mill bark ward, but the young shoots have made rapid progress during the laet few days and the tyers are now busy. Country Produce Trad Slow. The country produce markets were dull yesterday. Poultry was in fair supply, but difficult to move, though quotations were not lowered. Eggs were also elugglsh so far as the local demand was concerned, and outside buyers could only be Interested at shaded prices. Butter of all makes cleans up well and the market Is quoted Arm.

DAY'S SALES VERY SMALL Changes in Pinal Quotations Are Trivial Principal Dealings Are in Union Pacific and Read ing Bonds Are Steady. NEW YORK, June 5 Thre was but acanty material for Interest in the stock mar ket today. The total of the day's dealings discloses a violent shrinkage in the volume of trading, the day's sales falling to a smaller total than for several months, and during the latter part of the day there was almoet en tire stagnation. There was some reduction from the usual dealings on account of the dullness of the London stock market, where there will be a holiday tomorrow and Mon day. Affide from this there was no apparent explanation of the sudden lapse of interest in the dealings. The demand for stocks was exceedingly meaner, but the cessation of the selling, which flooded the market yesterday, was even mora remarkable. It was this feature . which opened the day to the slow movement of prices. ' J Union Pacific continued to hold Its domi nant place In the dealings, and except for some supplementary intercut in Heading, there was really nothing elfe calling for notice in the day's proceeedlngs. The postponement of the public offerings of the Union Pacific bond Issue, subscribed for by bankers, was given some Influence as a deterrent from active operations. The conclusion of that financial transaction, however, is ascribed a the principal reason for the sudden cessation of the aggressive operations to hold an ad vance in prices of stocks. A rise in the price of lead here and of copper in Liondon was of some influence on the industrial stocks In tho trades. The day's remits at the stock exchange as a whole were, trivial. Announcement of the omission of the semi annual dividend of the Missouri Pacific Kail road Company was made after the close of the market. . Stock of that company was weak in the late dealing;. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $2,4bij,UOu. United States bonds were un changed on call. - CLOSING 6TOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. Bid.

Bradstreet's tomor row will say: Irregular weather conditions, with heavy rainfalls In the Northwest. Southwest ana South have given . an uneven appearance to retail trade reports. Reports from whole sale trade lines and from leading industries are, however, more cheerful. House trade in Fall goods is reported light, but traveling men aresending in better orders, though con servatifmx rules in the buying. " Reports as to industrial resumptions at full time are more numerous in cotton goods and allied textile lines, more than offsetting reports of shut-downs, and there are more iron furnaces and coke ovens reported going to work as a rej?ult of the late pig Iron buying movement. Collections still reflect quiet trade In backward payments. Money Is easy, but the inflow from the country to the large cen ters Is slacking perceptibly.
