- -3fc "TI'gTi "Py ' THE MOENING OEEGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1900. 11 COMMERCIAL AND The most sataeeery feature of the trade situation for -welk r last Saturday wa an Intptovctaont the wheat narkct, to gether with ef. & stnposMon en the part ef holders to loosen W. 13m week dosed- with Portland onetaeioBS showing a gcJn ef over 2 cento) per bushel. The market iftr potatoes held steady all thmecfc the -week, la spite ef heavy reoente and a sUsfct wooliontng Is the Sen Francisco market, and mi Batareay as feign . 90 eente wee peM ec seme faner steak. None of tbe Btrength that we apparent in the wheat market extended to hees, and the situa tion appears to ha ea'tCUeg xrent baa to 'worse. There are about 4M09 bes of haps etitt un bgM In the state, ant before refuse to enote over 7 cents for the best ef the stock, ana some sales are made as lew ad 2 cents per pound. Aocoriing to nottmnlco ntaee by a somber of prominent dealers. Ores predeeed about 8S.O0 bales of hops teat year, and of tMa amount about -iUXK) hates have bees sold, at priees ranging from 11 and 14 certs early la the sea son, down to 8 cents wttMfi the past week. Of the amount adit nrmchi. sheet S per cent ar ch ;- 20 per cent prieM, and tfee remainder comirtn to molhtm. Washington and Callfor n a hoA e been pretty well donned out of heps, grjwe'-s having teas twTutMlty in meeting buy ers' mib than Is experienced in this state. The New Tork Journal of Commerce, under Iate of February , the following: The market k hi a eoL-mlngtr lifeless con dlu.n According to aevtees from interior New To-k and the PecMc coast, doalcns have latvrly ee u-eU a large portion of high geede, chiefly 1 r delivery on contracts with brewers made seme lime ago. and left the primary markets v.il. littla stock .of attractive quality. Values are rather weak In ormooouonee of the ln-fe-..or quality of the goede on offer In the pri mary markets, alone with tee apathy of both c?port and heme trade buyers. Exporters are irakmg only oooaatonal purchases, and seem to be without other than comparatively email orders. Latest foreign malts contained the following: ' London, Jan. M. There is no free feature to report. Bfewem are not buying with such frcMom an they did a few weeks back. and under these conditions merchants content themselves with meeting the current demand from their etooke. Prices, however, remain firm, and factor's quotations are: Kant Kents, COs to 75e, Mid, Ms to see, Wealds, 40s to Ms. and Sueeex, Ma to Ms. Kent and Sussex, Jan 40. There has been a good trade in all descriptions during the past week, but more especially in medium-claw hops, which are new making from 40s o 46s per cwt. A few lots of East Kents of good quality for the Sear have been Belling' at TOs per cwt. There la again a large falling off In Imports, and several inquiries have been made for hops oultable for export. Several lots of yearlings have changed hands at from 46s to Ms per cwt. Worcester, Jan. . The state of this market shows no material alteration, but the useful medium qualities are being gradually absorbed, and holders are r.rm In the belief that prioee must Improve In the near future. There Is no demand for the lower desoriptionti, and very lit pronpoot of their advancing In value, at present. During the week 168 poaketa were weighed at the public eaales. Oats, barley and hay are not very arm, on account of the decidedly mild winter weather, which makes a light demand for feed. The government wilt require oooantonal small lots of oats, but, aside from this demand, there Is not much noting, and hay, except for a very choice article, to deoWedly weak. The butter market nan been ruling arm, with a good de mand, and only moderate receipts. Eggs are weak, and best Oregon ranch, stock will not clean tip at K cents, with plenty of Bastern offering, an low as S eente per doeen. Poultry nold up pretty thoroughly test Saturday, but eacrinoM were made In order to dean up stocks. This wan enpeotatty the case with dressed turkeys, whieh afire in quite freely at the dose of the week, only t And the demand moderate at low prices. Perk, veal and pork produota toaed, the week Arm t full prices.' Sugnr and eoSee are both strong and advanc ing, with rnuek strength In other Unes of gro ceries. WttBAT-Although there was quite an Im provement in the wftoat market last week, the most of the operators oonnned their business to finishing e the tonnage stilt In port, and looking Up an ooaaohmol ship for next seesn toadmg, There has been only moderate pro Vision made for tonnage, with which to move wheat sold within the Dext three or four mouth, and aa trwnom are holding anything In this position at very nttff rates, exporters are not loading up with wheat, even If It were possible to do so at prices asked by farmers. During the week all sorts of priees were paid, but at the oiose of baeinooo Saturday no one waa inclined to up fly quote more than &i eente for No. 1 Vatta, It&Ma, although for heavy stock more waa obtatnante, and Valley was nominally M conic for tfce best. These priees will undoubtedly prevail until another ship Is taken. Them the shipowner will demand and receive hie portion of the advance In the foreign market, and as he has Urns far this season suecccdod m taking the lion's share of the advanee, budnww wilt agate eome to a halt. The growing crop corttinues la a highly favorable condition all over the Northwest. The situation oleewhere In the United States Is thus set forth fey the Ctroitnatl Price Current: Xhlring the past week weather conditions have changed from the extreme mild tempera ture, which, had prevailed for nearly a month, to decidedly lower temperature. In the eastern part of the winter wheat section this change has been accompanied by more or less snow fall, and, an a consequence, with very few ex ceptions, no material harm to the wheat Is anticipated; but from Illinois westward the ground la practically bare. While the present condition Is generally reported very good, thete is considerable fear that this bard frees will prove Injurious to the wtteat. Taken as a whole, it mar be said that the present state of the plant Is good, but the weather unfavor able. The Interior movement of wheat ooa tlnues light, in sectiona where there is con siderable held beck, aa well aa where supplies are low, hoWom seomtnc to maintain confidence In higher prices.

Throughout last week the stock exchange displayed considerable firm ness, although the disquieting war news pre vented the business being maintained to the fail extent. Prices, however, shewed a fairly general improvement, including consols, which touched 101. but closed at 101. Grand Trunk rose sharply on the dividend announcement. Rands and other African mines oscillated with the many movements, advancing and retreating with General Buller. The effect of his retire ment, hewevpr. was less than might have been expected. There was torn nuytng on the de cMtte. but mines generally closed steady, with rands rising point. It Is noted that of late Continental operators wore the first to receive unfavorable news, French and Dutch' setting preceded the publtca te here of the news of General Butler's re treat. Americans dropped from the best figures, but nevertheleso they show a good improve ment for the week. It is probable that the Bank of England rate will soon be reduced again. In order to help the impending government issue of 13,000,000, which, it is believed, will take the form of short dated bonds, with an option of conversion Into consols a few years later. Money, notwithstanding was less plentiful call money 2' to 2 per cent; short loans, 2 to 2 per cent, and three months' bills at 3. There was an increase of supply of American paper in the market.

May closed c over yesterday, at 34c. It was a sad session for short sellers in the corn pit, for the coarse cereals, after arly market, on which traders confldr-'.,, sold more than they had bought, failed taTrollow its usual custom of reacting, and climbed still higher. Trade was actie and the crowd greater than in any other pit. The influence of Its strength overspread the whole floor. The source of the market's power was something of a problem. Wheat was firm, without being very active. Better cables, due largely to smaller world's shipments and the exceptional strength of corn were the Influences. May wheat opened at 688c c over yesterday's close, sold oft to 0SGU8o and reacted to 68c, closing c Improvement, at C80Sc. The oat market was strong on a good general demand. May closed c over yesterday. The market for provisions ras not a big one. A weak hog market was felt at the opening, which was lower for pork, but 6teady for lard and ribs. This was recovered, the strength of corn being a factor. May pork closed 2c over jesterday, May lard 2c up and ribs a shade better. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Opening.

TWO VIEWS OF SOUTH AFRICA One British, the Other Antl-Brltish, Equally Authoritative. New York Tribune. Mr. James Bryce, the foremost critic of the British government and advocate of the Transvaal cause in the present South African troubles, is reported to have said In parliament on Friday last that the fusion of races in the Transvaal was pro ceeding satisfactorily until checked by the Jameson raid, and that while the TJitland- ers had their grievances, these were greati ly exaggerated. The mutual attitude of the two races Jn the Transvaal prior to the Jameson raid has been graphically described by one of the most competent and judicious authori ties in the world. Speaking of the Boers, he said before the raid: "They hate the English. Their usual term for an Eng lishman Is 'rotten egg.' This hatred is mingled with contempt and fear. They extended their hatred of the English to the English-speaking TJItlanders gener ally." As for President Kruger himself, "he hated all foreigners." The TJItlanders, according to this same authority, formed, a National Union, the object of which was to obtain, by constitutional means, "equal rights for all citizens of the re public, and redress of all grievances. It did not seek to bring the country under British control, but included among Its aims the maintenance of the independence of the republic. Nevertheless," continues our authority, "It incurred the hostility of the president and his friends, and lis petitions were unceremoniously repulsed. This tended to accentuate the anti-Boer feeling of the TJItlanders. They (the TJIt landers) had presented to the volksraad a petition, signed by 38,000 nonenfranchlsed residents, asking for reforms, and this petition had been scornfully rejected, one member saying, with no disapproval from his colleagues, that if the strangers wanted ?in flinv no11&1 fTiol,. Tltrlifc. fVit., -... 1.9 ,, Ait. nw .u .w. ..ow3, ticjr nuuiu have to fight for them." Such, according to this high authority, was the state of affairs lust before the Jampsnn mid Wo really cannot see in It much of the "fusion of races" of which Mr. Bryce spoke the other day. Concerning the grievances, which Mr. Bryce says have -been exaggerated, this same authority whom we have quoted says: "They had substantial grievances to redress. Food was inordinately dear, because a high tariff had "been iihposed on imports. "Water supply, police, sanita tion, were all neglected. In the public schools Dutch was the only medium of instruction, ana jcngusn cnuaren were compelled to learn arithmetic, geopraphy ' I!r32h,x "1" fa,u- The. ycuH,MJ,T,REAT; and history out of Dutch text-hnnVort MENT CURES you without medicine of ana nistory out oi .uutcn text-Dooks.

In 18S2 this period was raized to five years, and in 1887 to fifteen. The effect of" legislation down to 1894 (all prior to the Jameson raid) has been to debar any immigrant from acquiring the right to vote for the first volksraad until he has passed the age of 40 and resided for at least 12 years in the country after taking the oath." Such were the grievances, as stated by an unimpeachable authority. Really, we cannot see they have in "later statements been exaggerated as much as Mr. Bryce would have us think. "We have cited this authority so fully because it seems to us there is a certain pertinence in such use of his testimony as a commentary upon the recent speech of Mr. James Bryce. For the authority in question is none other than Mr. James Bryce himself, and the quotations we have made are taken from Chapter XXV of his admirable work entiled "Impressions of South Africa." a HOTEL ARRIVALS.
