TTTTJ CORNING OKEGOETAN, THURSDAY,- MARGH- 1, -1QQ0. n COMMERCIAL AND The weather for the past week has been so Springlike, that a good many buyers have apparently accepted the belief that irlnter is over, and that now Is the time to purchase Spring goods. There has been j a good trade in most lines, and receipts of produce have been unusually large for the last week in February. The supply of potatoes seems to be .inexhaustible, and even a decline of 5 to 10 cents per cental has not resulted in checking receipts to any appntelablo extent. Not only are ship ments to San Francisco still quite large, but there Is also a heavy demand for ship man to Alaska. The Northern field is also giving us a better market for onions than can be found In California, choice stock for shipment to Alaska selling as -high as 52 50 per cental, while the top figure in San Francisco is but $2 25 per cental. The -wheat markets after some signs of strength last week, are again In the dumps, with a movement very re stricted, although, as will be seen by flg urosjprlnted elsewhere, shipments for the month closing yesterday were a third larg er than for the corresponding month last year, with the outlook favorable for ship ments during March to be fully as large. The hop market is a rhade steadier on a slightly Improved inquiry in the East. There Is no difficulty In selling strictly first-claas stock, but off grades are a drug on the market. The wool men are in the field sizing up the situation with a view to business later on, and prospects are excellent not only for alarge clip, but for good prices, the weather during the past winter being exceptionally favorable for sheep. In livestock prices continue very firm, with a demand for everything that is available. Veal is tolling up near rec ord prices, with pork also bringing highly remunerative figures. Butter and eggs are feeling the effects of approaching Spring, and prices are weakening. Poul try continues firm at good prices. There is qulto a surplus of Oregon apples com ing to hand at present, and prices nro lower than they were earlier in the sea son. Garden truck from California Is now arriving by every steamer, and the price is quite reasonable for so early. In the grocery trade, there is considerable firmness In all lines. WHEAT The wheat market made an other downward plunge Jn Chicago jester day, and the May .option came within an eighth of a cent of landing at 5 cents. The European markets were also much depressed, and In the Portland market the men "who were quoting 53 cents 'for "Walla Walla wore not paying much if anything above that figure, a slight de parture from the system of wheatbuylng Which has been In vogue for the past few weeks. With Walla Walla In no greal dpaiand at 53 cents, there was a decided apathy among buyers regarding Valley, and 52 cents was about the best quota tion obtainable. Bluestem was nominally K and 55 cents. The freight market con tinues very firm, with no new tonnage engagements reported. Dealers have ex perienced more or less trouble In filling thlps, all through the season, and with a falling market abroad and growers at homo holding firm, there is too much risk involved in paying 42s Cd for a ship. The greatest factor In the present weak ness Is said to be the Argentina crop,, which Is now being put afioat. Ship ments of something over 2,000,000 bushels last week caused a violent brjgak In the 1 East, and if all reports now coming to band from that big wheat country are true, thefce shipments are liable to hold up to present or even greater proportions for many months. The latest estimates of the Argentine Stato Government place the surplus of the present crop available for shipment at 74,000,000 bushels, with 8,000, 000 bushels of the old crop still avail able. As this Is a larger amount of wheat than will be shipped from the entire Pa cific Coast during 1900. it will be seen that our competitor on the South is destined to cut a pretty wide swath in the situation for the next few months. The effect of this big surplus ofcourse can be over come by poor crops in other countries, and there Is yet time for failure elsewhere. While European crop prospects on the whole are excellent, there is complaint in some sections. The Paris Bulletin des Holies says that there is no doubt that the damage to the French wheat crop Is more severe than was at first supposed. Other advices from Europe claim that the damage is somewhat more serious in the North than at first, supposed. In the low CQuntries and Germany, the weather has '.been severe. Austro-Hungarlan reports are more favorable, owing tc improve ment in the latter part of January. Dan-t-blan reports -areralso- mfavorable, while reports from Rusrsla show no change. The official report for Hungary, states that at the end of January the Winter sown crops were satisfactory, there being improvement in some districts. In the Northwest crop prospects continue excel lent. In trie East they are hardly so good as they were a few weeks earlier, but they are far from being bad. The Cincinnati Price Current, reviewing its crop corre spondence for -the week ending last Satur day, says: No material change to the Winter wheat crop has occurred during the past week. The plant has been well protected by snow in Illinois and the States west of the Mississippi River. In Ohio and Indi ana light snows, followed by warmer weather and rains, have prevailed, and reports from these States are as unfavor able as heretofore. Taken as a whole, present conditions admit of possibilities of a fairly good outcome, though pros pects are somewhat less favorable than some "weeks ago, and the most trying period is Jus commencing. The move ment of Winter wheat at interior markets continue rather light. Our correspondents indicate that fairly liberal supplies are held hack by farmers in Ohio and South ern Indiana, but that in Northern Indi ana, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas the reserves are not large. The shipments for the month Just closed .(flour included) were 1,203,857 bushels, com pared with 1.9S3.400 bushels in January, end SSC.4S2 bushels in February, 1S99. 'The Portland shipments In detail appear in another column. Puget Sound shipments lor February were 172,873 bushels of wheat and 94,108 barrels of flour, a total (flour included) of 596,359 bushels. The total shipments from Portland to all ports for the season to date, July l, 1S99, to March X 1900, are 6,410.879 bushels of wheat, and 675,117 barrels of flour, compared with 8,629,314 bushels of wheat and 721,643 bar rels of flour In February, 1SS9. From Pu get Sound port the shipments for the same period wre 1,842,521 bushels of wheat and 526,123 barrels of flour, compared with 5,441,750 bushels of wheat, and 442,524 bar rels of flour for the same period last sea son. Of the Northwestern crop already Shipped there has been a larger propor FINANCIAL NEWS I tion shipped as flour than ever before. The figures are- as follows: Bushels. Wheat -. 8,5S,4X Flour (reduced to wheat measure) 5.405.5S0 Grand total wheat from North west 13.65S.9S0 Shipments same period last sea son , 19.305,814 Decrease ,...,... 5,650,834 FRUIT Oranges are becoming quite plentiful, a shipment of four carloads com ing to hand yesterday. Best navels sell at about $2 75 per box, with a quarter more obtainable for large ones. Seedlings are weak at about $2 per box. Bananas have been scarce this week, but two car loads are due tomorrow and Saturday. Prices are unchanged. Apples continue in large supply, and It is necessary to resort to the hawkers in order to make a clean up of some of the ordinary stock which is sent in. Sales have been made as low as 65 cents per box, but fair to good stock will move at 51 to ?1 23, with $150 per box near the top for best offerings. HOPS Prime and choice grades of hops are in a little better demand, and a num ber of sales have been reported this week at about 7 cents for the best, and from this figure down as low as about $2 per bale for tome "alleged" hops. The New York Journal of Commerce of the 24th has the following: Recent extensive purchases have Im parted more confidence to Interior holders, and It is difficult to buy at the present time at prices that were common at the opening of the week. City dealers are also somewhat firmer, particularly on prime and choice quality goods." The Watervlile, N. Y Times of tho 20th says: There have been no tranpactlons since those reported last Friday, which were Efl bales at 7 cents, and about 40 bales ol old hops at too low a figure to quote. It la noticeable that there are an unusual amount of auctfons this Spring, and at each are offered a quantity of utensils necessary to pioduce and harvest hops. Whether this can ba taken as an Indica tion of reduced acreage for this coming year Is perhaps uncertain but probable. BUTTER San Francisco dealers have had men In Portland peddling out Cali fornia butter to the retailers for the past week, and the result of their efforts is shown In rapidly accumulating stocks of Oregon. Prices on the California article have been cut, .and in order to move the Oregon stock it will be necessary to meet tho prices made by the San Francisco dealers, although the product from the South as usual is not as choice as that made In Oregon. Quotations have not yet been changed, but a cut of 5 cents Is ex pected beforo the end of the week. Store butter, which has been very scarce for the past few weeks. Is again ooming In more freely, and is easy at quotations. EGGS The egg market was hovering around 12 and 12& cents yesterday, but if receipts are as heavy today as they have been nearly every day this week a further decline may be looked for. There is no outlet where tho surplus stock can be shipped to advantage, as the San Fran cisco market Is overloaded -already, and tho Sound Cities cannot handle all of the surplus that can be spared from this City. The Eastern eggs have been prac tically driven from the market, the few still on hand selling at prices so" low that It Is next to giving them away. POULTRY The receipts of chickens are very light this week, and prospects are favorable for good prices throu0lv he Week. Beet old hens sell at $4 50 ar.d 55 per dozen, and an occasional fine lot brings half a. dollar more- Mixed coops will move at $3 00 to H 50 per dozen. There is not very much call for ducks and geese, and quotations are largely nominal. Tur keys are still selling in a limited way at about 11 to 12 cents for live, and 13 to J5 cents for dressed, fancy stock being needed to command the top figure. Bank Clearing:. Exctianres.

Buying: to Cover Cnuscs a IUqe 4n IVenk Stock. NEW YORK. Feb. 2S. Evidence accumulated as the day progressed in the rfock market that" the short Interest In the group of specialties whjeh has recently been declining has become unwieldy, and before the day had clcoed an urgent demand developed tor these stocks from, the bears who had oiereold the market, and who were eager bidders for stock to eoer short contract. Thus the apparent anomaly was j. resented "of a buoyant rise In stocks concern ing which recent unfavorable news was still uncontradicted, or new facts developed of a still more unfavorable character. Additional mechanics' liens were piled up on the assets of Tnlrd Avenue, and a receiver was appointed, yet the etock offered firm resistance at yester day's low level, and rose at one time as much as8&. The Franchise Tax Commission, whlch recent rumors by professionals have credited with a purpose to practically confecate the net earn ings of local corporations, began Its fittings to day, but the stocks of the New York public utilities rose from 2& to G points. Published reports alleged continued demoralization and cutting of prices of Sugar, and the conviction of professional speculators remains unshaken that the next dividend will be cut; but Sugar shows a net gala of 24. The simple explana-. tlon is that the bear traders have been selling these stocks without holding certificates with which to make deliveries, and when they tried to buy they found a horde of traders in the same situation, and a lively competition rpranj up to secure the floating supply. People's Gas, the tobacco stocks, a number of the metal stocks, "Western Union and. some others which have been under recent pressure moved upward undr the same influence. The leather stocks w eakened. on the yearly earnings reported, which were much below recent san guine estimates, and the bearo endeavored to create a diversion In their favor by raiding the 'stocks. The rest of the market refused to respond. Relieved of the elements of acute weakness which have recently dragged It back, the railroad list rose strongly and quite uni formly, the exceptions being stocks which have already advanced in face of the recent weak ness. Tho advance was rather marked in a group of low-priced common stocks of compa nies whose preferred stocks had already re jected their improved prospects of dividends by reason of increased earnings. Foremost of the group were Atchison and Southern Railway, which rose 1 and 1 point, respectively. There were good rlss alsa in St. Louis & Southwest ern, Wabash preferred. Chicago Great Western, Colorado & Southern second preferred and North American. The movement of the .grangers, led by Bur lington, wati based on the fall of snow in the Northwest, which Is believed to afford security to the wheat in the ground, as reflected by the downward tendency of that cercaUon the grail exchanges. This movement la of special inter est, as being the first o any moment In the stock market founded on the prospects of this j ear's crop, thus ushering In a new influence and hazard which will play a growing part In the problem, of values.

EAST SIDE AFFAIRS Xcctl of a Sewer in Multnomah Ad 1K.cii Other Mntter.i. The agitation for sewerage by tho property-owner In Multnomah Addition to Albintv has resulted in the calling of a meeting for tomdrrow evening to' discusa the question In all Its bearings. It will b,e held ut the MJssissIppl-Avenuo. engine .house. In that portion of the City there is a wide territory well settled up in which .there la "no sewerage. Here Is located ihe tIg Thompson scnoolhouse, and many new dwellings have been erected In that neighborhood within the past year. Prob ably there aro 15CG people living In this sewerage district, which extends north to Alberta street and east to Commercial street It is conceded that In this large and growing district," eewerage is very necessary, and most of the property-owners feet that they must have It sooner or later. Of course, all those occupying the rented houses would like to see sewers In the district, but it will cost a lot of money, which the property-owners will have to "put up. It Is-estimated taat a sewer sys tem of sufficient capacity will cost up ward to ?40.000; but it is thoucht that the work can be done cheaper how than at any time in the future. At this meeting there will be a full discussion of the sub ject, and it will probably be ascertained Just how tho property-owners stand on th subject. A full attendance Is desired. Albino. Republican Clnb Meeting. -The Alblna Republican Club held its opening meeting last evening in Gomez Hall, on Russell street There was a fair attendance, and much interest was shown. John T. "Whalley. president, stated that the purpose of the gathering was to open the campaign and prepare for active work. He also stated that it would be necessary to elect officers,, and, on motion, the time for election wa.? fixed for the evening of March 14. The executive com mittee was Instructed to secure suitable quarters for the club. After the transaction of business, a num ber Of talks were given. S. C. Spencer was introauced. He referred -first to local matters, and said that he believed that the best men should be elected and also that there' sTiould be a convention of un trammefed delegates. Then Mr. Spencer talked on expansion, and declared that the Republican party Is committed to that doctrine. In speaking of the Puerto RIcan tariff bill pending, he said that he con sidered ltialtogether wrong to fence out the products -of our own possessions, and that if It be -undertaken It will certainly result In great 'wrong. Mr. Spencer said that the message of President McKInley on the subject was the correct doctrine and. should be adhered to. He did not think the Constitution warranted a tariff CHAM5ER OF COMMERCE e NOME ST S. S. 253 WashJnaton St. Snrt Francisco. Steamship Co. against the people of our own posses sions. Mr. Spencer remarked that It was rather dangerous to take a stand on such a question before It had been settled, and when he closed his Interesting talk he was heartily applauded. Dan Moore responded with a few re marks. Captain Charles McDonell, of the Second Oregon, responded with .an In teresting talk of Incidents about the Phil ippine Islands. A. N. Gambell and others also made remarks In the course of the evening, and an excellent feeling was dis played. Machinery for Cheese Factory. Manager Lewis, of the Gresham co operative cheese factory, has ordered the machinery for the enlargement of Its capacity. The enlargement of the facrory has been under contemplation for several months, and the building In which It Is located has been prepared for this pur pose. Another storeroom has been com pleted for holding finished cheeses. Dur ing the months of November, December and January, when the quantity of milk usually dlcreases, there was no decrease In what was received. This was due to the fact that the farmers turning In tholr supply to tho factor had Increased their stock by purchase, and kept up the sup ply. Now, however, the supply Is Increasing- so largely that the facilities are not sufficient for handling all the milk. Manager Lewis will either put In another milk vat tho size of the one In use, or get one double Its capacity. The growth of this industry has exceeded the most san guine expectations of the farmers, and tho manager, who started it up about a year ago, and they are will pleased with the cash income. It has paid well from the start. The cheeso manufactured Is kept SO day3 and then sold. Manager Lewl3 savs It should be kent Ol clnvs: but orders come In by telephone and otherwise, so that it cannot be held. Crashed Roclc on the Section Ttoad. The work of coating the Section Line road with crushed gravel continues, and the teams are- working westward, having reached East Thirty-nJnth street. The road will bo covered with crushed rock almost from the City to Gresham, which will give it the most enduring roadbed of any road east of the Willamette River. It has been found that the material will admit of wagons being dragged over It Immediately after it has been placed on the road, even when loaded, and there Is no sliding nor pushing aside of the ma terial, as In the case of gravel taken direct from the pits. The heavy travel over the Section Lino road made-It necessary that somo more durable material should 6e used. There is some complaint made that the Base Lino road has been neglect ed by the Commissioners, but assitranccs are given that It will receive attention next. It is considered probable that tho Commissioners will order another rock crusher this year, as tho present one has proved so successful. It Is not large enough to supply all the County. East Side Note. C. B. Bartel, who was severely bruised by a .fall on East Morrison street the other evening, Is able to be around, but Is feeling very sore. It was found that he sustained quite severe injuries to his side, and had to coasult a physician. The Multnomah-Union Republican Club will "meet this evening at the office of Euchtel & Kern, East Burnslde street. At this meeting the new constitution and by-laws will come up for adoption. Also this evening the Eighth "Ward Republican Club will hold a meeting in Gamer's Hall. Coast Athcltc Go Eait. BERKELEY. Cal.. Feb. S.
