COMMERCIAL AND.
Taking into account nothing bat the actual
transactions In wheat, aa that great staple
jmlgfet as tvell haie been eliminated from the
trade situation last -week, for the total aales
for the "week -were so InsiBniflcant aa to have
330 effect on trade. As a natter of fact, the
money paid out in Portland ior potatoes last
-week "was nearly equal to that paid for the 1
.cereal. The mild -weather has materially cur
tailed the demand fisr many winter goods, and
at has also affected the market to feed, a fair
ly good demand from the government being the I
.only factor 'which has prevented $ats and hay J
solntr down to prett low figures. Receipts
of nearly all kinds of produce -were heavy last
-week, but there -was not very much difficulty
in -working them off. The egg market con
Unued to yield to the mild -weather, and by
Saturday had got down to 17 cents in round lots
with single cases selling at iTJfc cents. Poultry
isold well at good figures throughout the week,
-ducks being in special demand. There is a
jgrowlng scarcity of good onions, and as high
as ?1 75 per cental has been -asked for fancy
stock.
A few-transactions were reported In hops last
week mostly at about 0 and7 cents -This was
about the best figure reported in this market, J
"tout a. lot is reported as sold at 'ChehalLs for
" and S"& cents per pound. The association
is reported to hate made a sale, but is care
fully guarding the price ODtalned. For strictly
.first-class white oats there is quite a demand,
3ut there is -very little sivck of this kind here.
Off grades are plentiful." Hay continues rather
weak, except for fancy stock, which is wanted
by the go ernment. The open winter has had
a very depressing ffect on hay and feed, and
it is not being relieved much as spring ap
proaches. Veal and pork continue firm, atgood
J&ures.
"WHEAT Clearances of wheat for the week
iepdlng last Saturday ere among the beaiest
.an record, amounting to 776,316 bushels, and
-two part cargoes of nearly 120,000 bushels of
"barley. This wonderful movement Is not due
to any present lire in the market, but la the
-result of fc old business, which was handled sev
eral weeks ago. In addition to the eight a es
sels which finished their cargoes last week,
jseveral more are pretty well along, and will
get away by the end -tt the month. For busi
ness beyond satisfying the need of the fleet
now here -or close at -hand, no provision is "being
snade. It Is impossible to put wheat and -chips
together on a basis which would admit of pay
ing prices which are satisfactory to holders,
tand rather than attempt to operate at a loes,
exporters are holding off. Under such clr
oumstanccs It Is a difficult matter to quote
prices at all accurately. On Saturday No. 1
TValla "Walla was in nominal demand at 50 and
SI cents, with no demand for lighter grades.
Valley b quiet at 40 and GO cents, and blue
etenl. 52 cents. Some -very good cargoes have'
left Portland during the week, and there is
some heavy wheat still on hand in this city.
he condition of the growing wheat crop pre
sents no new aspects, -either -on the coast or In
Ttbo JEast. It is uniformly good, and Is lmprov
Jing every das.
Prime's latest review says that, .from what
?he knows of the financial condition of the
.American farmer, he does not belle-, e we shall
-? sejp acala such large receipts of grain at
..-0tfin centers as we have been accustomed to
tggsfag t? the days gono by, except under the
m$5t extraordinary condition. This situation
arises from the wonderful change which has
come we us. first from the increased facilities
that farmers now have of almost universal
anarketing of their stuff through the country-
wlevators, and, second, from the Impregnable
financial condition in which we find the farmer
i&oday.
The freight market continues quite firm, al
though, tbene fa no new business reported. There
r but few ships, and the owners are taking
.advantage of their strong statistical position
-?jy -demandlng-terms lar In excess of what ex
porters will pay. Nominal quotations are
cbpift SSs 8d ta 40shllllngs, with a very limited
amount of tonnage, available.

NEW YORK FINANCES.
New York Banks Add Over Eleven
.Millions, to Their Cash.
NEW YORK. Jan. 20. The Financier says:
The New York clearing-house banks added
no lees than 511.536,000 to their cash .holdings
last week, bringing the total cash on hand to
$270,646,200, an amount larger than they have
. had In -vaults for months past. The surplus
reserve rose about $7,500,000, and stands at
present at $24,184,075. This contrasts quite
sharply with the actual deficit existing 00 daj$
ago. The rapid recovery Is due, of course, to
ihe return of money from the Interior, and to
the disbursement of treasury funds Into active
channels of commerce.
Counting $15,000,000 of gold exported, It ap
pears that no less than $46,000,000 of cash has
como Into the New York banks in 60 das.
The fact that surplus reserves now are not
correspondingly larger is due to the growth of
deposits, which are about $27,500,000 heavier
than two months ago. This, of course, neces
sitates an lnpreased cash reserve. The opera
tions of the week, considering the quietness in
the speculative markets, -were rather surpris
ing, by reason of their magnitude. Ixjans have
expanded $4,575,100, whereas not half of thl3
increase has been anticipated. Interest cen
ters around the heavy cash expansion. It has
been known the banks were gaining an. enor
mous -volume of currency from the interior,
and, from all appearances, " the statement re
flects the reports of this money In full. The
National City bank seems to hpAe absorbed
about all the specie coming to the clearing
house institutions.
The expansion in loans and the receipt of $11,
000,000 cash in deposits, is responsible for the
expansion of $16,000,000 In th'e latter caoe. The
statement foreshadows; a continued easy money
market. Whether this will lead to a revival In
speculative activity is a question that is being
carefully debated at present. In 1S94, with
reoord'-breaklng bank reserves, security mar
kets were almost lifeless, but conditions now
are -so different that there Oi no analogy. Tie
activity noticeable of late m the bond market
shows that funds are seeking investment at
prevailing interest rates. The future will be
determined by the continuance of the Interior
movement this way. If it retains its present
-volume, the usual results of easy money and
prosperous conditions as resected In speculative
circles will no doubt be witnessed again.
The weekly bank statement Is as follows:
Surplus reserve, increase

NEW YORK STOCK BIARKET.
Fayorable Bank Statement Docs Not
Induce Speculation.
NEW YORK; Jan. 20 The market in stocks
continues an .enigma which any ordinary rules
of Interpretation are unavailing to solve, Yes
terday's buying of stocks was prompted "by the
expectation of a favorable bank statement. The
statement proved more favorable than the
moot sanguine expectations, yet' the market lost
even the small animation U had been showing
when the "Statement appeared on the tape. The
net ohanges in prices are wlthput significance,
those of any amount being restricted to Insig
nificant stocks. London .reported a. flrm and
confident market, but the confidence did not
extend to the point of holding American stocks
up to parity leel. and the opening here was
very ragged and Irregular.
The lack of any upward impetus from' London
and ihet utter Indifference manifested to the
bank statement offered a poor market in which
to realize, or selling by eoterday's buyers
might have been larger.
In the absence cf demand they .seemed satis
fied to ikeep their holdings. But there -was no
inclination to add to them. The bank state
ment fully reflected the expected reflux of
unemployed .funds to New York, the total again
in cash helng o less than $U,C3B,00i. It was
not suspected that employment for these funds
had been found to be as large- h extent as In
dicated hy the loan expansion of $4,570,100. The
buying of mercantile paper by the banks,
which has been more active during the week,
will scarcely account for much of this increase,
and cerialnly no operations on the stock ex
change are suteclent to account for that "Un
less some 5eclal transaction Is disclosed to"
explain It, It Is probable the business of ln-i
dustrtal combination and -flotation Is beginning
to avail itself again of the easier money rates.
The good demand for bonds continued today,
and prices generally were advanced. The dull
ness of the stock market has been unrelieved
during the past two dajs, except by efforts of
professional operators to Induce a movement
of prices in some of the roysiery-enehrouded In
dustrials. Only on Monday and Friday did
dealings exceed 300,000- shares, and on Tues
day they fell below 200,000. "A large propor
tion of the email dealings of the week have
been In Sugar. Tobacco, Brooklyn Transit and
the New Tork traction stocks, and United
States leather, -with no authentic Information
on which to base operations. The boardroom
traders, who are interested in these stocks
every day, find their occupation gone when
prices come to a standstill. The dealings in
the class of stocks referred to represent noth
ing more than the efforts pf this class to earn
a livelihood.
The evident approach of a crisis in the mili
tary situation in South Africa is one factor in
the walJJng attltnde of speculation, while en
lightenment as to the future of the business In
dustry as a Tvhole is waited to gauge the fu
ture. The particular Influence or the Trar upon
the world was1 the stoppage of its gold supply,
and ihls only because conditions had been ad
justed at the world's great financial center In
London In continuance of this supply, cr to Its
.short (temporary Interruption. The readjust
ment of conditions to an indefinite Interruption
to this supply -was cleariy the main cause of
the violent disturbances in, the -world's money
market toward the close -of the year, coming
as It did on a sensitive condition of extensive
.sacculation commitments and nrif inrtntinn
But Ihe readjustment" 'having" been -effected, ItJ
19 noc 10 De expectea mat me jack or -tho gold
output of the Transvaal -will permanently crip
ple the world's commerce, considering- Its ratio
to the world's ,stock. It is not so clear that
the toppling over to the airy speculate e fabric
caused by the contraction of credits, which
was Induced by the Transvaal, is not to have
ulterior effects.
The action of the money market for some time
past has cleariy enough indicated the disincli
nation qf capital to mbark immediately upon
Iheoperflous oea of speculation. The reaction
Jn money rates is sow rcactilnir proportions and
assuming a character to raise thftflVeStlon
whether business and industries of more sub
stantial forms are not toaundergo retrenchment.'
A few weeks ago the B&iik of England, while
making concessions to attract gold on the one
hand was according liberal credits to the
money market on the other, with the object of
tiding over the money crisis and keeping the
money market in easy enough condition, to make
government borrowing for war purposes advan
tageous, -s -
Hoth gold and notes are flowing- back to the
banks in unexpected volume, and the money
market is not only pajlng off heavy loans to
the bank, but the Interest rate is falling Into
continually greater ease, drawing the bank rate
down after It. The European government banks
showan e en more abundant reflux of funds into
reserves, and a large reduction of loan accounts
with constantly declining rates of interest, in
New York the return flow of funds from the
Interior has set In, in full and steady volume,
after having been steadily away from New
York all through the usual autumn period of
return, while money rates In New York were
soaring to sensational figures. A 2 per cent
rate for call money incites no desire to operate
in stocks, and money-lenders show increasing
willingness to place time loans with the rate
well below C per cent. New York banks are
again bidders for mercantile paper, with no
very abundant supply In the market.
The heavy absorption of railroad mortgages
well secured, and yielding 4 per cent, reflects
the Increasing pressure pf funds. The increas
ing ease of money keeps prices of stocks firm,
in spite of the dullness, and railroad earnings
continue at a high level, in spite of some de
cline in -volume of traffic on account of higher
rates.
Concessions in prices of iron and other metals
and the weakness In the wheat market awaken
Interest In the stability of conditions in those

More Information than they called ior is
breaking in upon the Tagal assistants in
the senate. Misterious Incidents were con
nected with the euddea breaking out of
hostilities near Manila last February. As
the treaty drew near a vote Agonc llo kept
the wires hot with Hong Kang and Agum
alfio's camp. Senator Hoar's violent argu
ment against the tpollcy of the govecn
.men was telegraphed to the Tagals at
unusual-length and heavy cost. Great rest
leasnees and an aggressive spirit was the
result among the Tagals. Before the
treaty vote was taken they crowded jpon
our outposts .and firing began. Knowing
what would happen, Agoncillo hurriedly
left Washington and wont to Canada over
the shortest route. The offensive Tagal
ta.fitlc3jw.exe; hed on the-news, repelled,
from the TJn'ted States. They knew pei
leijtly well that the orders of Otis were to
keep the peace if possible. The speech of
Hoar turned the scale at the critical mo
ment and the war began two days before
the vote that railfled. the treaty.
Miners Would. Hold tUe Philippines.
A correspondent of the Grant's, Pass
Courier, wrltliu? from Ireland, in Josephine
couiity, 6.iys:
'A's several -of us miners live close to
gether, we often .spend the evenlng3 to
gether, after our day's work, talking and
discussing different subjects. The most of
us agree in regard to our government's
assuming control of the Philippines. It
is a' mistaken idea that we wish to take
the Islands from the natives. Our gov
ernment' desires to civilize those nat.vee.
and, 'then educate them' and bring them, j
up to a higher standard of life. A great
many people do not seem to understand
It. 'When "they arp educated, they can
assume sontro) of their government,. But
it was not so under the Spanish dominion.
All the Spanish cared for was to collect
a revenue from them. Most of the peo
ple in this vicinity like McKinley's pol
icy, and a good- many who opposed him
at the time of his election, have s;nce ex
perienced a. chai?ge of mind."
