Weekly resume of Portland and general markets, issued from Portland Tuesday afternoon, follows: Strength continues In all. lines of livestock. The advance in the price of hogs, . was fully maintained today, although tnere was only a very limited number coming forward to test the grade. The weaker feeling which has exist ed In the swine trade at competitive points recently has In a measure re duced the great differential that has existed between the price here and the cost of landing supplies from the Mis souri river territory. However, to- day's advices, while telling of a weak er and lower price at South Omaha, makes the top there 2c above what Jt was last week, therefore forcing this addition to the cost of bringing stock here from there., On the basis of today's values at the Missouri river market, eastern swine cost $7.27 to land here and at other Pacific north west points. The best price available recently here has been $6.75i which still makes the differential between the local price and the cost of getting eastern supplies here very heavy. Today's run of hogs at North Port land, 314 head, compares with .449 head received both Monday and Tues day of last week, Monday being a holiday. ..... Hogs were steady at Chicago today, with a run of 26,000 head, compared with' 18,000 a year ago. Tops sold there at $0.25 which price was receiv ed for mixed nnd for good and heavy lots, At Kansas City there was a steady tone, in the hog trade with a run of 15,000 head. At' South' Omaha, while hogs were weaker and lower, tops sold up to $G.17V&. . North Portland swine values: TiBot nnr.kfirR. sV.7.r: cood heavy, at $6.50 to $6.60; good light, $6.50 to $6.60; Rough and heavy, $6.25; pool and heavy, $5.25 to $5.50. In the Stockyards. NoVth Portland Hogs firm, cattle firmer, sheep firmer. South Omaha Hogs mixed, cattle higher, Bheep lower. Chicago Hogs steady, cattle steady, sheep strong. Kansas City Hogs steady tp firm, cattle ste-ady, sheep strong. Turkey Shipments Continue. Evidently figuring that there Is al ways a demand for turkeys no mat- tor when shipped, some shippers con tinue to send forward large numbers of dressed birds, while during the greatest demand. they, refused to let 'AVthWest there Is only a nominal call' for turkeys at this time. The market was nominally placed at 21 23c a nound this morning by the trade, but as there were no sales made at this range during the morning, u would be hard to tell what the exact price Is. Shipments of dressed turkeys to the Front street trade during the time 'n- tervenlng since the close of business Saturday.' were unusually liberal and supplies hung along the wholesale district this morning resemble holiday lime. ' ' " . Not only are many dressed turkeys rnmlnir forward at this time but the trade is i being liberally supplied with Hve turkeys while a short time ago they i.ould not be had at any price. As for dressed stock the market Is ex tremely limited. .... The notato market has started tne new year with only a nominal demand from the outBlde. . . . While weather conditions at this lime re against thJ h'pmen of po tatoes :o the south or the southwest, shippers say that even without this drawhhek the market Is extremely limited.'. Practically all of the small pres ent business 'In the potato market Is confined to seod stock. This is rolng to Southern California. Shipments consist entirely of American Wonders nnd for .these the price remains act ive at $1.50 per cental, f. o. b., coun try shipping points. Tnlila Htoelt Is nutet. While a very small amount of specula. Ivo business Is passing for tho account of tho Arl zona and middle California, trade, bus iness is of extremely .small volume and prices are exactly tho snme as have been quoted during tho past ten days. Local potato niarkot Is not very ac- tive. Jobbing demand Is being, quite well taken care of by former specula tors who are now seemingly anxious to unload with as little delay as pos sible. . , :(. Dressed Meats Are Firm. All through the dressed rneut mar-' ket prices continue to hold., very firm. DresBed hogs are at last feeling the effects of the Improved domand . for meats, caused by colder weather. The sales of fancy are being made at 9 9Vjc a pound. . Dressed veal remains firm with no change in prices from the high point of last week. - : . ; Eggs Are Holding Steady, ' Prices in the egg market are, as a rule, steady along Front street today. Receipts are quite fair and this is keeping tin mark.' dovp Some are trading values a fir iclWm. ;'" With, the coo ji" weather there Is a sV.phtly lncreas"! output pf cold stor age stock arp.-iJ 28c fo? best. Celery t Be Scarce. Owing to the unfavorable weather In the south and the higher prices rul ing there, local' stocks of celery are . alher limited and the market Is hold ins firm at 11 for best offerings. No further shipments are due from the south' until Thursday or Friday. Fresh Japanese Oranges, i A fresh shipment of oranges from Japan via the north arrived on the lo cal, market today in good condition and sales are continued at $1.25 per bundle. ' California tangerines are in more liberal supply and as they are of bet ter quality than thS Imported stock, demand Is Increasing at $1.59$1.75 per half orange box. ' " ' ' Grape Market Overstocked. Market Is quite heavily stocked with grapes at this time. Front street has a greater stock on hand at this time than ever before at this season and nrlces are more reasonable, Quality $$S.-SV(e.f$J3''i? t ?
