THE 3T0RNHsG. OKEGONIAV -SHTJUSDAY, MAY 17, 1900. 13 COMMERCIAL AND The first half of the month of May made a much more favorable showing: from a business teoodpolnt than the correspond ing period last ear, and in all lines of, trade general satisfaction is expressed at the manner- in -which business is holding up through what is usually called a dull season. The prospects for a record breaking wheat crop were never better, and in contemplating this the present ex ceedingly low v prices of the cereal are In a measure lost sight of. Potatoes are holding steady for good stock, and there Is a good shipping demand for all of the surplus. The strawberry season has at last got under way, and the market is well supplied with California stock, with Oregon increasing in quantity and de creasing in price. About all of the spec ulators who intend cornering the market on eggs at Cape Nome have had their orders filled, and there is a weaker feel ing in prices. Poultry Is slightly firmer, and good stock is about 50 cents per dozen higher than last week. Pork is weaker under the stress of a moderate demand and liberal recelpte. "Veal vras temporarily scarce yes terday, but prices are no higher, and there will probably be plenty offering again to day. The butter market is firmer on best grades, but is not quotably higher. In the grocery markets a good trade Is re ported, without any features of special interest. The local sugar war has about ended, and there Is nothing exciting in other lines. THBAT With but edx weelis of the 1S99-1900 cereal year remaining, we find the wheat market still dragging along on the bottom at about the same range of values as prevailed at the beginning of the sea son. In over 10 months of the presant season there has been a change of only about 6 cents per bushel In prices In the Portland markets, and the price today stands near low-water mark for the crop of 1S99. The loss from the highest point reached represents the Increased freights demanded by shipowners, thus showing pie foreign markets to .have ranged as even as the focal market. The low ebb at which the market "has been lriftln& for so many months Is surprising, in view of the numerous factors which usually tend to end prices skyward. The port -stocks In the Old "World are comparatively small India fs famine-stricken, and 'there Is a war of no mean proportions to be looked after by the British. The effect of these strengthening factors or what in former years w ere regarded as strengthening factors is nullified by the steady stream of wheat that pours into the consuming markets of the Old'World from North and South America, So long as the Immediate wants of the foreigner are supplied at the prevailing low prices, he Is not liable to lay up stocks and thus increase the demand and advance prices. The Argentine is still showing up with Immense shipments, and long before they fall to Insignificant "proportions America will again be a sh'pper of new-crop wheat. With a continuation of present weather conditions there will be considerable wheat cut within SO days In the more favored portions of Oregon and Washington and in much Ices time harvesting will be In full swing In California. Under such con ditions. It is perhaps not remarkable that there should be so little animation shown in the wheat market. In Portland there has been -very little offering since the re cent decline, and as tonnage Is pretty well taken care of, there Is not much of a demand. Walla Walla Is generally quot ed at 51 and 52 cents, and, while half a cent more might be squeezed out for a choice lot, it Is not generally quoted. As a matter of fact, exporters are using their efforts more with a view to securing tonnage than wheat. Taking every ship that Is listed to arrive before next Feb luary, there la not enough tonnage to move the carry-over stock In the Pa cific Northwest, and If there should be an improvement in the wheat market by the time the new crop Is ready to move, freights would probably soar to old-time .heights. Valley wheat is in slow demand, the mills, as usual, taking up the bulk of the offerings at about the same price as Is paid for Walla Walla. The Government crop report Issued bj the Department of Agriculture last week indicates a condition of SS.9, comparing with a condition of 82.1 on April 1 and 97.1 on December 1. The statistician of the New York Produce Exchange, figuring on the value of a condition of 100 Indicated by the harvests for a series of years, esti mates the Winter w heat crop at 393.45S.000. This estimate will, of course, be revised monthly as the season progresses and con ditions develop. The 1S99 Winter wheat, harvest amounted to 29C,G79,595 bushels from a ilnai acreage reported at 15,820,737.

Sowing Is progressing favorably, but the season Is late, wet weather ham pering operations. The movement of grain to the shipping ports Is now beginning, but eo far has been on a small scale, rrom Houmanla splendid reports are re cched, the wheat looking splendid and Spring crops getting a good start. Some frost Is reported in Austria-Hungary, but not enough to materially affect wheat, the most of them referring to rye. From Aus-, tralla ."seeding prospects are favorable, and good stocks of wheat are still held in New Zealand. There is no fresh news from India, but the famine reports arc still very bad la France the weather has generally In en faorable to the crops, al though th'-re were some complaints of cold nights. Options d ffor as to the con dition of the dtng. some stating that the weather will repair a great deal of the earlier damage, while others state that It will be lmj -sjble for all of it to be repaired. Abnonral heat and drought is reported in some parts of Spain,, and fair ly .good weather In other parts. HOPS The hop market for the week has shown no change, so Tar as local stocks were concerned. In the East there Is a slightly better feeling for choice goods, which are becoming scarcer. The yards In the Valley are reported in ex cellent condition, and well advanced for the eason. The situation In the East FINANCIAL NEWS is thus reported by the r?ew York Journal of Commerce: ,Tfce .inquiry from dealers noted-yesterday has resulted in a little business, but the transactions thus rar have not been on sufficiently large scale to influence prices to any extent. Further deliveries were made to brewers, and one or two j fresh sales reported, so that altogether i the market had a steady tone, with pos sibly a little more confidence felt In the higher grades. The reports from the in terior did not change In any way the out look for the new crop. London malls bring rather more encouraging reports from the British markets. The Ixmdon Grocer of April 2S says: "As a result of warmer weather a somewhat better In quiry has prevailed for hops since our last report, and purchases have been mado with greater freedom at full prices, par ticularly for the finer qualities, the scarceness of which becomes more evi dent as the season advances." FRUIT Strawberries are very near tha "whole thing" In the fruit line Just at present. It is getting late for oranges, and the bananas are not in such demand as they were a short time ago. ACwOm panying the strawberries are a few Cali fornia cherries, -which are still at a prem ium. The California berries are still held at 10 cents per box for best stock, with Southern Oregon bringing 15 cents, and, Hood River and The Dalles sellirg at 25 and 30 cents per box. Southern Oregon berries are not up to standard yet, but will undoubtedly Improve from now one. A large crop is reported, and prices -will probably suffer a sharp decline In the near future. There are are no apples in the market, but a few early apricots have ap peared. A carload of bananas Is due to day. VEGETABLES New-crop potatoes, tur nips, onions, beets, carrots, cabbages and about everything else In the vegetable line is quite plentiful at present, receipts by both steamer and rail being large. OnIon3 sell about 2 cents to 2 cents per pound; potatoes, 1 to 2 cents; cabbage, 1" cents' per pound, and the rest about $1 a sack. Old potatoes are In gdod demand for best stock, but common is slow of sale. Aa high as CO cents has been paid for somo fancy Burbanks. BUTTER The butter market is improv ing slightly in tone, and while the strength as yet is not sufficient to warrant an ad vance In prices, the stocks are cleaning up much better than they have been for several weeks. All of the be3t grades of creamer' sell at 35 cents, and stock which was almost unsalable at anything above, 30 cents now goes at 32s cents. Store butter continues In active demand, and while the general price Is 22 to 25 cents per roll, some extra good lots are occa sionally worked at 13 cents per pound. EGGS The spurt in the egg market was rather short-lived, and prices are again' working down toward the cold-storage level. A few dealers re attempting- In a small way to get 14 cents pqr dozen, but there are plenty of eggs offering at 13 and 1! cents, and receipts are much larger than usual at this season of the year. The recent advance was largely due to a demand for 'shipment to Alaska, and this being satisfied, the price receded. It Is still a shade above the ideas of the cold-storage men, and until It drops back to where they can enter the field, tho market will be rather quiet. POULTRY Good chickens are doing bet ter this week, and largo old hens In good condition sell as high asJo and $6 per dozen, the latter being an, extreme figure, but $3 50 is easily obtainable for choice stock. Springs sell over tho usual wide range of $1 30-io T50 According to size and condition. There is some demand for young ducks,at $7 per dozen, but old are 6low at quotations, as also are geese and turkeys. Bank Clearing. Exchanges.

Stocks of railroad companies made a demonstration of persistent strength In tho stock market today. Whatever unfavorable factors developed during the day were Irnored or their influence resisted, and the resulting declines overcome. Tha bear ele ment was so far impressed by the show of strength that they retired from the Held before tho day was over, and did not repeat yester daj's maneuvers of a raid on tho Industrial quarter, which on that occasion upset the mar ket in the last 15 minutes of trading. The mar ket showed Itself much less sensltlie than for soma time past to any depressing Influence, and the close was distinctly Arm at about the be-st level of tho day. The stocks of Western railroads were easily the leaders In the movement, and buying was attributed to Western account, as for several las past. This buying was believed In Wall street to bo covering an outstanding short In terest, prompted by the good crop weather ana faorable conditions in the Winter-wheat bolt. The leadership shifted from Burlington to Atch ison preferred, which scored a clean net gain of 2 points. The approach of the dividend meet-, lng. and the circulation of rumors that the stock would be placed on a 5 per cent, basts. were used With effect. Burlington continued aggressively strong, and scored an advance of Ki. In spito of denials of the recent rumors that a refunding plan was about to be an nounced. Northern Paclilc gained as much, and the strength of these stocks affected thd other Paclflcs, -and ultimately the coke lines, which rose 1 to 1 points. Tho steel stocks all bounded sharply on covering by shorts on de nials of assertions that general shut-downs were Imminent on account of prospective de mands for Increase of wages. The early weakness of Sugar, People's Ca3, the tobacco stocks and other Industrials was met by denials of various rumors which ac companied the decline. Recoveries ensued on the demand from the bears caught short. Be sides this weakness In the Industrial list, the market had to contend, with the announcement of gold engagements for-export tomorrow fully 1,000,000 In excess of the preliminary estimate Tomorrow's shipments foot up fully $3,150,000 Vor Franco. But the continued ease of money here relieved -all apprehension. The call loan rates fell tq 1& per cent, and tho gains by the banks from the Subtreasury and on the in terior movement of currency will evidently off set the gold exports. Although the advance In stocks was generally wiped out when tho gold engagements wero announced, the upward movement was resumed on further considera tion of tho circumstance. The bond market was dull, and only partly shared in the strength of stocks. Total sales, par value, $1,185,000. United States refunding 2s, when Issued, declined tf per cent, and the 3s H per cent In tho bid price. BONDS. TJ. S. 2s. ref... U. S. 2s, reg... 102Gen. Electric 53...120 OOIN. Y.

The American Wool and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow: There Is a llttlo more activity to be noted In the -aool market, without, however, any Im provement In prices as yet. It Is felt that prices have at least dragged down to a working basts; that Is, they taie reached a level at which consumers arc willing to operate. Ono consumer Is quoted as raying, in fact, that prices which manufacturers are now pajlns for wool will enable them to make light weights, which can be sold at nearly last year's prices. From this time on, therefore, the trade are inclined to look for more business in the wool -market. The deadlock between the grow ers and buyers continues In tha territories, and the bids made at the public sales in Casper and Rawlins were generally rejected. In some In stances, howeer. growers are more Inclined to make concessions. The Metal 3rnr!cet3. NEW YORK. May 1C There was nothing la the way of new features to the marKet for .metals today.

May 15. The fact that more than J4.COO.O0O worth of American railway engines have been exported in tho nine months ending: with March, 1000, as compared with leas than $l,0CO,C00 worth In tho corresponding; months ending with March, 1S4, and J2.SOO.O0O worth in the cor responding months of 1SSS, lends especial interest to the following statement from a report by the British agent and Consul General In Egypt, which has just been received by the Treasury Bureau of Sta tistic!. The report says: "Large additions were made In the rolling-stock in the course ot the last year. Most of the new stock added Is, however, to replace old stock which hai been condemned. I may mention that four trial heavy engines exceeding in power tho largest locomotives In use on tho English railways were ordered last yea., two from Glasgow and two from America. The following extract from the report ot Captein Johnstone, . the acting president of the railway administration. Is, I think, of sufficient general Interest to justify my quoting It in full: " 'The number of breakdowns In- our stock has been very considerable, al though happily they have. not led to any considerable accidents. This la partly due to the changes In the workshops (now nearly completed), and to, the heavy traffic having necessitated, the postponement of repairs, and partly to some of the stock supplied .to us having been of Inferior quality. Now that the greater part of the new workshops are completed, repairs are being pushed on, while the list of firms, allowed to 'tender stock is being carefully revls-ed and the names of firms who have supplied unsatisfactory mate rial are being struck off. I am glad to eay that the only, locomotives recently "supplied by an English firm Messrs. Ntil son, Rcld & Cc, of Glasgow have not given the slightest trouble. -Those pur chased from America In. 1S9S -have also done well, but aa they differ In many re spects from our standard types, our own men have taken some time to learn theli peculiarities and we have not been able to get the best results out of thorn. This action of the board In ordering locomo tives and wagons (cars) from America has been criticised. It Is due partly to this fact; that American firms, while they are not in a position to tender on more favor able terms than othpra on our designs, almost Invariably offer us engines or wag ons built to standard designs of their own at lower prices and in less time; whilst English and other European makers con tent themselves with tendering on our desiems, being, an a rule, not In the habit of manufacturing to standard designs of their own. "Ue much prefer adhering to our own standards, but In cases where time and cost are of great Importance, such an. offer from America cannot be passed by. On the other hand the long time reaulred at present by competent English firms to execute such ordern Is prohibitive, and tho only order placed for locomotives this year, brides the trial orders referred to elsewhere, went to a Belgian firm, who offered delivery ln months less than any English firm, ami who have done work for us In previous years.' "Of the Kenen-Asuan Railway, Cap tain Johnstone writes: " 'Three new locomotives have arrived and been taken Into use not before they wore badly wanted. Thirty wagons and three more locomotives are on the way. These have all been ordered from Amer ica, as they were urgently needed and early delivery could not be obtained else where.'
