LUMBER TO BE CARRIED Multnomah to Have Sail Area of .56. 000 Square Feet Spanker Mast Is Enlarged. . The fleet of Bailing vessels, com pleted from shipping- hoard wooden hull, and operated, with Portland as their home port, is to be increased from three to four, if plans of the Multnomah company, recently, or ganized here, are carried "Success ful completion. The new company is headed by F. P. Drinker, of the Peninsula Securi ties company, as president- Captain J. H. Piltz is vice-president and gen eral manager, and G. E. Miller is secretary-treasurer. G, ' E. Miller & Co., are handling1 the financing- of the project, and will retain an interest in the completed vessel. Captain Piltz has designed the rigging- of the ves sel, and will act as superintendent of 'construction. Grant Smith & Co., who completed the sailing schooners Oregon Fir and Oregon Pine from shipping board hulls, will do the construction work on the new vessels and act as her managing agents- Crft to Carry Lumber. According to the plans of the com pany, as made public yesterday by Mr. Miller and Captain Pilts, the wooden hull Acarmen, the last shipping board product of the Grant Smith-Porter company, is to be purchased from the supply and sales division of the ship ping board, and completed as a four masted barkentine for operations in the of f -shore trade out of Portland, particularly in carrying lumber to Australia and South Africa, The barkentine, Multnomah, as the new windjammer is to be known, will have a sail area of approximately 26,000 square feet, which is 3000 more than is carried by the barkentines Alicia Haviside. Katherlne Mackall and others completed from shipping board hulls by the Pacific Freighters company. Foresail In Immense. The large foresail alone will be 90 by 27 feet in dimensions. A depart . ure planned from the conventional barkentine rig is a fixed gaff divid ing the ring-tailed topgatlantsail Into two seperate sails, and thus allowing more canves on the spanker mast. The Multnomah will have a lumber carrying capacity of 1,900,000 feet, and will be able to carry 3500 tons of coal. It is estimated that the total cost of purchasing the hull and com pleting it as a barkentine will be about 250.000. HALF FAT CATTLE AIARKKT IS OVER SUPPLIED W ITH THLX STOCK.

Threshing of Winter Wheat Is Be coming General in Oregon. Haying Is Practically Over. Crops and weather conditions In Oregon for - the week are summarized by the weather bureau as follows: Moderate to high temperatures pre vailed, with abundant sunshine and little or no precipitation. These conditions fur thered the rapid maturity of small grains and facilitated their harvest. While rain would retard this worV, it is beginning to be greatly needed In practically all dis tricts. Springs and small streams are dry ing up and larger streams ara becoming so low In some localities that water Is get ting short for Irrigation purposes. E-lec-tric storms occurred in several counties on the 5th accompanied by high winds, which caused some damage, and forest fires were started by - lightning in many places. Winter wheat harvest is well advanced and threshing is becoming general; winter rye also is mostly in shock or stack. The cutting of barley, oats and spring wheat is progressing rapidly under Ideal conditions and some early fields are being threshed. The high day temperatures and hot nights were beneficial to corn and this crop made rapid growth; most fields in Doug!as and Jackson counties are in silk and tassel and ears are setting in Linn county. The loganberry and cherry harvest Is nearly finished, while evergreen blackber ries are about ready for picking. Bartlet-t pears are tieing picked In iouthern counties and shipping will beirin this week. Apples and prunes are sizing up nicely. Earl) varieties of apples are plentiful in the mar kets and early peaches are ripening in Jackson county. Haying is practically over, except in the later alfalfa and seed-clnver fields. Some labor shortage is reported from eartern lo calities In securing the hay crop. Pas tures are drying up: raiges are poor, ex cept in the mountains. Livestock continue in good condition generally and stockmen are now gathering beef cattle in Baker county. . Truck crops where Irrigated are doing well, and" garden vegetables and early po tatoes are plentiful, hut rain Is needed for late crops where water Is not available. Tomatoes are ripening in all districts and In some places quite a number are being marketed. Late potatoes are fair to ex cellent, with a good color and fine growth, but would be improved by. rain In dry localities. HIDE PRICES ARE LOWEST IN YEARS Market Is in Bad Way With , No Buying by Tanners. firm at ?1.752. Berries have about dis appeared from the Front-street market STOCKS ACCUMULATING Shoe Manufacturers Xot interested in Leather at This Time. Lower Values Expected. The hide market Is in very bad shape at present. Local quotations, which are wholly - nominal in the absence of busi ness, are the lowest In years, standing at 11 cents for salted hides, 9 cents for green hides and 20 cents for green and sa 1 ted calfskins. "It is impossible to Interest eastern tanners in raw stock' said George M. Sul livan of the Sullivan Hide &. Wool com pany yesterday. "Shoe manufacturers ara not buying leather and the whole shoe and leather industry is In the worst condition that it has experienced in years. Hides are piling up in the hands of dealers and butchers ail over this country, and can be im ported from South America at even lower prices than are being nominally quoted today for domestic stock. "According to the government report of hides in the hand of dealers, tanners and others on June 30, 1020, there was at that time 6,212,948 heavy hides of all descrip tion, and this is an increase of 363.000 hides over the report for the month pre vious. May 31, 1920, and an Increase of 1,516,000 hides over June 30, 1919, or 32.9 per cent. "The government report showed 4,022. 892 calf and kip on hand on June $0, 1920, aid 3,643,098 calf and kip on hand the month previous, or an Increase of 13 per cent for one month. On June 30, 1919, the report showed 2,843,048 calf and kip In dealers' and tanners' hands, or an in crease for 1020 of nearly 50 per cent over 1919. "Since June 30 this year, when the last report was issued, stocks have been ac cumulating, and as tanners still keep out of the market, it looks as though we are in for very low prices for all classes of hides and skins for some time to come. Export demand for leather has fallen off almost entirely. Exports of sole leather for June, 1020, were $8,199,897, against $ao,805,599 for June, 1919, and with the English pound sterling down to around $3.60, against nearly $4 in June, the ex port business in leather for July and Au gust has been almost nothing. "The quotations we are putting out to day are nominal, and we have withdrawn our buyers from the road completely, only taking on such goods as are consigned to us. There is .no assurance that we will continue to pay these prices for consigned goods for any length of time. If tanners continue to keep out of the market and leather sales do not improve, hides this fall and winter will be a drug on the , market and may reach low levels before : unheard of.

The recovery In the stock market made further decided headway today. All classes of issues were in demand, with top prices of the day showing advances of from 1 to 5 points. Absence of bear pressure, subsidence of liquidation and a feeling that the tech nical conditions warranted a rally were the principal influences. Optimism over the Polish situation, com tinued strength of sterling, which gained about 4 cents, and the expectation that credit conditions soon would improve, also induced purchases. special buying operations In , various groups which have suffered in the late decline created a more cheerful sentiment, and short covering was large. Standard Oil of New York, which is dealt in on the curb, advanced 60 points on rumors of a stock readjustment. Announcement that further financial aid had been extended to the Maxwell Motor corporation and some relaxation In call money rates were other favorable inci dents. Gains In numerous shares exceeded 3 points, with Shell Transport. United Fruit, Atlantic Gulf, Cuban-American Sugar, American Car, General Electric, Interna tional Paper, Maxwell Motcrs and Mexi can Petroleum figuring for 3 to 5 points Total sales approximated 503,000 shares. The Iron Age, in its review of steel trade conditions, points out that the re adjustment going on in other industries has not been made manifest in the steel industry and that the supply of steel still falls far short of the demand. The bond market showed considerable breadth, but moved uncertainly. Foreign issues were mostly higher, although United Kingdom 5s of 1937 lost half a point. Liberty Issues fell back slightly. Old United States governments were unchanged on call. Total sales, par value. - were 111,100,000, SaTes.

Pork quotations were gher, but virtually nominal. The Chicairo market letter received yes terday by Overbeck e, Cooke company ot Portland eatd: Wheat lacked a definite trend, starting strong and higher and later meeting real izlng 'sales by recent buyers. Strength In 11 cash markets exerted a restraining in- fluence on bearish sentiment, as dtd also the intimations that export demand It beginning to broaden. The total yield ot spring wheat ls.stlil In doubt despite the government estimate of 252,000,000 bushels. Advices from the northwest are extremely conflicting, some points sending in re- oorts ot very favorable showings, while others say most of the wheat is badly hrlveled and yields 4tsappotntlng. Re ceivers generally report more difficulty getting cars than anything else, as the southwestern farmer ts a willing seller. Receipts at primary markets are running t the rate of about 5U per cent 01 last car. even though the railroads are giving heat preierence over other grain. Corn Elevator interests were again con spicuous buyers of both cash and futures. ith the former the more responsive, aa- ancing 2 to 3 cents, due to light re ceipts, local sentiment appeared ratner bearish and traders found encouragement In messages from New l ork reporting lib eral importation, from Argentina of corn. Reports of corn firing in certain sections r western Iowa. Nebraska ana enirai lllnois were numerous, but given small consideration. The possibility of wheat be ing given preference over corn in the movement to market for some time to come is attracting attention. DecemDer corn has been depressed from time to time, based on the excellent crop outlook, with he result that the discount under bep- tember and cash is now approximately 23 cents and 80 cents, respectively. This Is factor militating against oearisn opera tions. Oat. advanced and declined with corn. having an easy tone at the finish. A small sale was reported to an eastern ex porter, the first In some time, casn pre miums were ficm early, but eased again the close. If this small volume of ex port business today should prove a fore runner of better demand. It might easily furnish the incentive to give a higher market, as the recent decline of nearly 60 cents in the price of cash oats from the top made In .June la generally regaraeo as excessive. Rye Futures sold higher, with offer ings limited and market acting tight. Some of the buying was credited to the sea board, believed to reflect sales of cash grain to exporters.

Wheat averaged higher in price today, owing more or less to reports that France and Italy were in the Inarket as buyers. The close was un settled at HlVfcc net advance, with De cember $2.38i-s and March $2.42. Corn gained 4 1 c and oats finished un changed to c higher.

Then sell ing broadened out somewhat and there were numerous setbacks and rallies, with the bulls as a rule retaining some ad vantage. Misgivings in regard to the Russo-PoMsh struggle appeared to have much to do with the strength of the mar ket, but more particular attention was given to talk of export business, especially dealings with France.
