OMMERCIALAND
Batik clearings, as well as Ure reports
of nearly all of the wholesalers In the
city, show the volume of business at the
present toe to be fully eaual to the
Ibest In the commercial history of the city
.t a corresponding date, and In some re
spects it is far superior to some seasons
when there was a normal movement of
wheat. The lifelessness of this great staple
has, of course, had a serious effect on gen
eral trade, but matters would have been
Jar worse were It not for remarkable
prosperity in other directions. The de
mand for lumber, both for domestic and
forelga shipment, -was never greater, and
the entire Northwest is being cruised by
an army of timber-buyers, who are pck
3ng up all of the timber land availa-ble
and paying fairly good prices lor It. T-hls
Is placing in circulation a large amount of
money west of the Cascades, and east of
4he mountains mining development has
reached greater proportions than ever be
fore. Eliminating the wheat business from
the situation and there is still a -great
amount oT wealth pouring into the chan
nels of trade from the farm. Livestock
Ss bringing record prices, and wool that
"is still on the sheep's back can be sold
aow tor a figure away above the aver
age for many years. The largest crop of
potatoes ever produced In the Northwest
3s now coming to market, at the rate
of 10,000 to 20,000 sacks per week, and
the prices are higher than they have been
sit a corresponding period for many years.
IButter, eggs and poultry are all bringing
jjood prices, and hay, oats and barley are
mot to be overlooked, although the latter
cereals are sharing some of the weakness
an what. Pork and veal are both Arm
at higher prices. The hop market is un
changed. The withdrawal of many thou
sand bales of the Oregon crop has enabled
the California growers to unload at slight
ly better figures, but locally there is noth
ing doing. .
"WHEAT The "turn of the year" Is now
ast, and with over a -week of the last
fcalf of the present cereal year added to
history, the wheat market is still "'drift
5n." With the greatest wheat consuming
-country on earth In the midst of a serious
-wfrr, "which may yet develope Into a "fight
(r life," there Is the same apathy In
te foreign markets that has marked their
J-farse throughout the season, with prices
Jsa&ually tending downward. Frota PQtt
fe& larger' pe?ent&Si vt Wheat has
been -shipped out as flour than ever before,
and this has aided In keeping prices as
Mgh as they have been. Now that the
flour trade Is slackening, prices will be
more liable to continue on a strictly ex
port baste. The fleet of ships in the river
ana near at hand has been pretty -well
taken care cf, and the buying at pres
ent Is on a very small wale.
With something like 22,000,000 or 23.000.003
bushels of wheat In the Northwest, It re
quires hardly a perceptible movement to
permit enough to drift out, to, in the
aggregate, amount to two or threo cargoes
per week, and this Is as rapid a move
ment as exporters have been prepared to
ileal 'with this season. With dragging
markets In Europe, high rates for ships In
Portland, and an unusual amount of hand
ling necessary to get the wheat Into ex
portable shape, the present season has
been one of vho finest on record for ex
porters to 'iest on the laurels they won
in the past" -As to prices, it is still a
difficult matter to quote with any great
degree of accuracy. A I6t of Walla "Walla,
sufficient to fill a moderate-sized ship, was
-reported sold a few days ago at about 5$
cents, but since that time It has been a
difficult matter to secure quotations above
62 to 52 cents. At the latter figure heavy
Btock can still be worked, but for the
ordinary run of Walla "Walla. 51 and 5fc
cents is about the top quotation.
The "Valley farmers are holding much
firmer than their friends east of the moun
tains, and there Is sot enough selling
through the entire length of the Valley
to keep a small-sized mill running. Blue
stem, which was in good demand a short
time ago for South African shipment, Is
easier, the Dark Continent at present
being able to draw the supplies needed
snore conveniently from Australia, which j
is now gathering a bountiful harvest
"While fine crops in Australia and the
Argentine are already available for ship
ment, and acting as bear factors, along
with excellent prospects and a big acre
age in this country, many prominent op
erators In this city are of the opinion
that the stringency and unsettled state of
the foreign money market is materially
aiding in depressing the market The
Xilverpool Corn Trade News seems to take
this view of the matter, but finds a grain
of comfort in the belief that dear money
Will eventually mean dear wheat. Com
menting thereon that paper says:
The tone of the market at present In
Xilverpool and London is feverish, the po
sition being complex and the outcome ex
tremely uncertain. The stringency in
the money market Is becoming so severe
that It counteracts the combined Influences
of the somewhat disturbing political situ
ation, and lessened shipments. "We are
reminded by one of the most successful
and far-seeing wheat merchants on the
Liverpool exchange that dear money has
rarely, if ever, led to cheap wheat In the
long run. It no doubt dulls the edge of
the cargo market but it also interferes
with the flow of supplies in commercial
channels, and eventually causes wheat to
become dearer. At the moment the wheat
market appears to resemble the combat
ants In South Africa. The position there
as here Is critical in the extreme, and the
Wisest-headed are the least confident in
their opinions as to the Immediate fu
ture. Crop conditions abroad continue on the
whole quite favorable. In this country
they are much the same, although some
misgiving is expressed on account of the
mild weather which Is giving wheat too
much of a start The situation elsewhere
in the United States is thus reported by
the Cincinnati Price Current in review
ing Its crop correspondence for the week
ending last Saturday:
The past week has been the coldest of
the season, and It has come when the
greater portion of the winter wheat area
had little or no snow protection. Many cor
respondents think that this is rather hard
on the wheat though the plant with some
tsxeeptions appears to be In good condition.
The exception to this exists in the central
and western part of Ohio, the eastern part
of Indiana, and a few places elsewhere,
where it is reported the plant looks poorly.
It Is In these localities that the ravages oi
the fly have been most severe. Interior
gralndealers continue to complain of the
lack of freedom In the offerings of grain,
especially of wheat, and some flour mills
And more or less difficulty in supplying
their needs at present prices. The wheat
market has shown a slightly firmer tone
this week, but the turn was slightly easier
at the close. There is a fairly good de
mand for cash wheat at current prices, but
at any advance trading is checked. The
flour trade continues unsatisfactory, and
millers Just take enough wheat to keep
running. A slight decrease was shown in
the visible supply, probably due to light
movement during the holidays.
"WOOL The market continues very Arm.
and the few straggling lots which have
been carried along -for the past year or
FINANCIAL NEWS
two are now selling at extravagant fig
ures, with buyers reported In the field,
offering to Contract for the coming clip
at figures nearly equal to present spot
quotations. The New Tork Journal of
J Commerce, In reviewing the situation 'in
j the East says:
f Strength but quietness seems to be the
j characteristic of the wool market during
i the week. Manufacturers are not active
j buyers as yet, but this is only to be er
j pected at this time of year. A good deal
of wool will be shipped during tne next
Xew weeks, but It will not represent new
business. It Is the execution of orders
placed some time ago, deliveries of which
were ordered delayed until after the first
of the j'ear. Manufacturers are not anx ous
to have any more stock on hand than
possible at the time of stock-taking, and
although buying has been fairly heavy
during the last few weeks they are prob
ably better situated In this respect than
for a number of seasons. Much of the
buying has been speculative in character
and the wool has gone to dealers, while
tho stpek that has been taken by manu
facturers has gone Into consumption.
"Very few manufacturers are covered very
far ahead, and as soon as they commence
to receive orders on the hew heavy
weight lines Which are being opened they
will "be obliged to come Into the market
for a largely increased supply of the raw
material.
In spite of this failure to buy dealers
are, if anything, stronger In their opin
ions regarding the future than they have
ever been. There has been more or less
of effort to find weak spots In the pres
ent market but so far as can be learned
these efforts have proved futile and deal
ers have stood firm to their asking prices.
One of the most bullish factors Is the
outlook for the next London sales, which
commence on January 1G. It is generally
believed that if the opening Is not above
the level of the last sale's closing prices
it will bo on a parity with these figures.
It Is estimated that the available stock
for -these sales will not be over 130,000
bales, whereas it was expected that there
would be fully 180,000 bales offered. Last
year at this time the list comprised 1S7,
000 hales.
FRUIT Citrus fruits are now at their
best and the market Is well- supplied at
reasonable prices. Best navel oranges sell
at $3, with a quarter more paid occasion
ally for something fancy. Lemons are
steady at $3 and $3 50 per box. There
have been pretty heavy receipts of Japa
nese oranges, and they are Belling at :65c
and ?1 25 per box. The liberal consign
ment of Coos bay apples has been pretty
well cleaned UPi and the market Is firmer
for good keeping stock. But few of the
Hood River apples have been received, and
growers are still holding for 52 per box.
Fancy stock will how sell readily at $1 50
per box. Some very fine bananas came
to hand thlB week, and the demand con
tinues liberal, with prices firm.
POTATOES Despite the heavy receipts,
the potato market has thus far showed no
Indications of a break, and yesterday as
high as 90 cents was paid for some tine
upland Burbanks. This was an unusually
fine lot however, and most of the upland
stocks sells around 70 and 80 cents, with
river potatoes moving at 65 to 65 cents.
There is some demand for Garnet Chiles
for seed purpose In California and they are
selling at about 70 to 75 cents per cental.
Tho shipping demand from the north and
Gray's harbor and other comparatively
near-by points continues, and even a tem
porary weakness In the San Francisco
market would not check prices very
much.
DGGS Receipts of eggs are very heavy,
and It is Impossible to clean up all that
are coming In at 20 cents. Dealers have
been holding stocks In the expectation that
colder weather would Bhorten the receipts,
and enable them to work off stocks, but
the mild weather has continued until the
hens are all laying, and eggs are accum
ulating far beyond the ability of dealers
to unload them. A few dealers who have
a regular trade which is not particular
about prices are still endeavoring to get
21 cents, and as high as 22& cents is
asked, but these prices are hot the mar
ket POULTRY Receipts of chickens are
again large, and there Is quite a liberal
proportion of them that are poor stock.
Some Plymouth Rocks sold yesterday at ?5
and 55 50 per dozen, but for the usual
run of fat hens about $4 50 Is the top, and
from this figure the price ranges down as
low as $2 50 and $3 per dozen. Live tur
keys In poor demand, but for dressed
there Is still a demand at from 15 to 17
cents, according to size and Condition.
Geese are slow at $6 50 to 58 per dozen,
with receipts about equal to the demand.
Ducks are steady, with a good Chinese
demand at $5 and 56 per dozen.
BUTTER The butter market Is Bteady
to firni for the best grades, with com
mon store butter In very poor demand,
and great effort "on the part of dealers
necessary In order to move it at all. The
copious showers last August and Septem
ber and the mild winter has had a great
effect In increasing the supply of butter
throughout the winter, and for the first
time in many j ears there was enough but
ter produced in. the state to supply the
demand without the necessity of sending
out of the state for It But two or three
small shipments have been received from
the East this winter, and they were
bought last summer as a safeguard In 1
case there should be a scarcity here In the
winter. The unsuccessful attempt to con
vict a local dealer of selling process but
ter developed tho fact that this
grade of grease has been elimi
nated from the Portland market
the alleged process butter l5elng
creamery butter packed in Iowa by reput
able creameries. At the same time there
are tons of what Is termed "store" butter
sold in this city, that is neither as palat
able, healthful or profitable for the buyers
as process butter. It Is the superabund
ance of this poor truck that keeps the
market (for anything except strlotly first
class creamery) In such a weak 'state.

NEW YORK" STOCK SlARKET.
Dull and Narrow Except for a Sensa
tional Decline In Sugar.
NEW TORK, Jan. 10. The stock market was
dull and narrow except for the sensatl6nal de
velopments ahectlng ths stock or the American
Sugar Refining Company. Previous to the as
sembling of the -stockholders' meeting there was
a considerable show ot strength In this stock
owing to a general conviction that the sugar
trade war has more of shadow than Substance
In it. The declarations confided In the presi
dent's annual report rather took Wall streets
breath, and caused fear that, unless conditions
change, dividends on the stock may be sus
pended. The stock declined rapidly, the price
varying as much as 1 between sales. The
first drop took the stock to 122, when It steadied
and rallied abovo 124. It fell again to 117,
bringing out, heavy stop-loss orders oh the way
down; rallied to near 122, reacted 3, and again
rallied In the final dealings.
The large and persistent outstanding short
interest In the stock served as a recuperative
force by bujlng to coer contracts. All the
prominent Industrials were sharply affected lh
sympathy, the bears seizing the opportunity to
offer prices down and uncover stop-loss orders.'
The railroads were much less affected, al
though the earlier galiu Wrere mostly wiped
out. There "was good buying In the railroads
at the decline, led by the Baltimore & Ohio
stock's on the companj's strong statement ot
December earnings. The general relaxation In
money rates all'over the Wurld had created the
Impression that dlflcouht rates both Of the
Bank of England and the Imperial Bahk of Ger
many will be reduced tomorrow, and board
room traders were Inclined to buy stocks In an
ticipation of a foreign demand.
Stocks were generally firm today In foreign
markets on account of easier money rates, but
It Is -very clear the money market owes Its
abundance and ease to the thorough liquidation
of speculative accounts which had been ef
fected all oer the world in the last few weeks
and to lack of renewed speculation, Soecula-
tors are apparently still disinclined to take on 1
stocks, and today s market was a narrow af
fair, eyen taking in account the violent price
movement of some of the specialties. The pre
vailing dull movement Is attributed by traders
to fears of unfavorable hews from South Af
rica, but It is not Improbable that the existing
conditions there, as well as In the financial
world, have been accurately discounted In the
speculative markets. New developments are
awaited to warrant a new adjustment of alues.
The bond market was dull, and moved In
sympathy with railroad stocks. Total sales,
$1,025,000. United States new 4s and 6s, reg
istered, declined per cent In the bid price.

place the money. Bankers generally charged
40'5 per cent, but Borne were ready t'o tak& 4
per cent.
The American account proved to be the small

c. Buyers on the late wat scare sold, and
prices eased off to"B7XJ7c, where It steadied,

casioned by the light clearances and the liberal

Boston Wool Market.
BOSTON. Jan. 10. The American Wool and
Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow:
The wool market continues quiet, but Is very
firm-, pending the general opening of the goods
market. Such goods as. have been shown have
opened at advances tanging all the way from 15
to 40 por cent over last year, and a satisfactory
business Is reported to .have been done thus far.
Just at present the manufacturers are not pur
ohaelnjr wool very liberally, although they have
been a little more In evidence the past week,
and have taken some" small lots of medium
wools and dne Australians. The entire business .
of the week has been of a. retail character, and ,
the total sals aggregate only 2,565,000 pounds.
Prices continue to" maintain much strength, and
the trade are so confident as to the future of
Wool that they have already contracted for a
considerable portion of next season's clip at
prices ranging all the 'way from C073c clean,
landed at Boston.

long- programme. The sfnging of "The
Absent-Mlnded Beggar" was greeted wittt
such a-storm of gold and silver that the
singer .had to flee from the stage. One
enthusiastic miner wrapped a large bill
around a piece of ore, and, throwing It
at the stage. Inflicted a nasty scalp wound
on the gentleman who was playing the
accompaniment to the song. Merchants
donated articles which were sold at fancy
prices. Bottles of beer went at over $10
each, and two tiny flags, the union jack
and the Stars and Stripes, worth not more
than 5 cents, brought $14. Turkeys were
disposed of for $7 and $8, and cigars at 50
cents each. Never was such loyalty dis
played in the Kootenays, and as a result
the Mansion House fund will be Increased
by 51400 as Nelson's contribution.
