CHICAGO. Feb. 20. All the strength which
characterized the clcee In wheat jesterday had
disappeared before the opening of regular trad
ing todaj. Early cables were a disappointment,
showing but a slight response at the opening
at the advance here yefierday, and even thia
soon disappeared. Besides this, the cash ue
mand was exceedingly light. Shortly after
the opening a realizing movement developed,
and selling pressure from this source was soon
Increased bj- weakness in wi, the result being
a material decline from yesterday's closing
figures. The liquidating rooement was of
short duration, and the demand not Improving,
trading became dull almost to stagnation, re
maining so almost to the close, with prices in
narrow range.
Seme lmproement In tone was created by
the decrease In the worWs visible, where an
Increase was expected br most traders, but no
realty Important buying followed the postirg
f the figures. The Southwest reported a good
oash demand, with farmers hauling to market
on a large scale. Mai irfccst opened at 6bc,
a decline ot 0c sold at 6Sc declined to
076Tlfcc and closed -Jst-H-c lower, at ftSc.
There was a broad and active market for
oors. prices changing rapidly, though trade
was not wide. On a decline a good speculative
demand developed, and ultimately part of the
decline was recovered, the market closing
fairly steady after showing considerable nerv
ousness, at times. May closed tfc lower,
at 36K.
Oats were duH and weak. May closed sHc
lower, at 23e.
A fairly good trade was dose in praylEions.

THE SMELTING OF ORES.
Limits Within Whicli Profit Mny Be
Made.
PORTLAND, Feb. 20. (To the Editor.)
My attention Is called to an article In
the Spokane Review entitled, "Smelter at
Portland," which requires some little ex
planation and correction.
The article seems to have been Inspired
by an article appearing in The Oregonian
a few days ago. "When your reporter
called on me for an Interview, I was quite
busy and only answered a few of his ques
tions, but my understanding was, that
after writing it up, he would call ugain
and submit It to me for correction; but
Instead, I saw It published with some very
loose and extravagant statements, and
it was my Intention to write you a cor
rect statement, but I neglected to do so.
The Review may not have any fears of a
smelter being established on any such loose
and extravagant statements as appeared
in that article, or any of the capitalists
Investing money on that basis.
I have never met Mr. E. T. Bradford,
and am not Informed fully ot his plans,
but from what I have heard they are
sound and correct. As for ex-Senator
Corbett subscribing $5000 of the stock, I
suppose It was merely given as a starter,
which is quite commendable for a man
that has no experience In mining mat
ters, but when he la better informed as to
Its workings he will be as ready to invest
$100,000 in it, as well as any other business
enterprise.
As for the failures of the two preylous
smelters in Portland, I may say they wQre
failures before they starfed. The one stock
concern on the East Side was launched by
a party of adventurers, with no capital of
their own, and less knowledge of the busi
ness they were undertaking. The one at
Linnton was a real estate boomer.
It is true, that no smelter will be able
to reduce at a profit ores assaying as low
as $4 per ton, but my understanding Is that
ores can and will be smelted here In Port
land at a cost of only $4 per ton. Ot
course, the ores would have to be worth
much more than that to pay any profit
$10 per ton at least.
But the editor of the Review is mistaken
when he says $10 ores cannot be smelted
at a profit in Portland.
We would not. have to rely upon $10 c-res
alone, whilst I would place that at the
limit below which ores could' nbt pay to
mine, transport and smelt.
"We have an abundance of ores which
are worth that much in gold and silver,
but carrying also 10 to 20 per cent in cop
per, which would give a handsome prpfit.
Besides, we have some very rich mines
producing 500 and COO ounces of silver and
$20 in gold per ton.
"While I may admit that the mlneowners
of Coeur d'Alene are paying from $17 to $20
per ton freight and treatment, that Is why
there are so many smelters that do not
smelt. A small smelter of 30 tons capac
ity cannot reduce $10 or $15 ore, while a
large one of 100 to 200 tons daily capacity
can make a profit at smelting at $4 per
ton. and this Is the kind Of smelter that I
understand Mr. Bradford proposes to erect
here one of a very different kind from
those at Trail, Northport and Nelson, and
those which have proved failures ih Port
land, i
"Wo have millions and millions of tons of
ore that will not pay to smelt, but we
have also millions and millions of tons
that will, and many mlllons of tons of
low-grade ores which would be made pay
ing ore by sorting out. Respectfully,
J. H. FISK.

NORTHWEST FRUITGROWERS
Saving: Suggested in the Matter of.
Marketing Dried Francs.
BmVERTON, Or., Feb. 13. (To the Edi
tor.) Allow me space to suggest some
Ideas of interest" to the fruitgrowers of the
Pacific Northwest- There Is a meeting
palled at Portland, March 7 and 8, for the
purpose of organizing an association for
marketing the dried prunes of the Pacific
Northwest.
The first thjng I want to impress upon
the minds of the growers is the amount
paid the commission men to buy our fruit.
As far as I can learn, there was only
one In the state that didn't charge the S
per ce'nt commission for buying, and ha
operated in Salem. According to Dr. J. R.f
Cardwell, president of the state board of
horticulture (and he Is authority), there
were 700 cars of dried prunes shipped
from Oregon in 1898, Estimating 24,00
pounds to a car, gives in all 16,800,000
pounds. Take the average price that
prunes brought in this, the second horti
culture district, which was 3 1-3 cents per
.pound, and it would amount to $560,000
the 5 per cent commission of which would
amount to $28,000; or, in other words, the
prune growers paid th? commission men
$28,000 to get them to buy the dried prunes
of Oregon in 1898. I don't blame the com
mission man for this. It is the grower
that is, to blame. One object of this con
vention is to save a part of this $28,000
by marketing the fruit themselves. If
this don't open the eyes of the fruitgrow
er, I don't know what will.-
Now, for tho primaries, to be held before
the convention, I would suggest for each
fruit district to pall a meeting and elect
one or more delegates, and that these
delegates be authorized to say what the
growers are willing to do, and have the
amount of dried prunes produced In their
respective districts in 1898, so there can be
some Idea formed as to the amount of
fruit that can be controlled by the asso
ciation, as It will have to be able to han
dle 75 per cent or more of. the crop to
make it 'dff ective.
Now, brother fruitgrowers, let us throw
off that old, superstitious idea, that somo
one is going to make a haul out
of this organization, and all Join
hands irt the cause, put our shoulders to
tho wheel, start It to rolling, all push
In the same direction, and success will
be our reward; otherwise we. will meet
our disaster sooner or later. True, It 13
going to cost us something to handle thl3
fruit, both money and labor; but $28,000.
I believe will handle the entire crop of
dried prunes of .Oregon if we have a full
crop, which would be double the crop of
