COMMERCIAL AND.
There was a fine trade -with the country yes
terday and this, with the usual Friday trade
In the city, kept the wholesale section pretty
busy alt day. Produce receipts were lighter
than usual, and. -with the exception of eggs,
prices ruled rather firm. The ess market la
In peculiar shape. The price has not yet re
ceded to a point where the stock will go into
cold storage, and there- is not enough demand
outside of the storage houses to take care of
the heaTy receipts now coming to hand. The
effort to advance the price of butter does not
aeem to be meeting with much success, as
there is still plenty of strictly first-class
creamery stock to be had for S3c- Oregon
strawberries were not so plentiful yesterday,
and all jf the best stock sold at 15c

Argentine shipments this week were about
1,000.000 bushels shy of those for the rrcllous
week; but the effect -of this falling off hid
apparently all been discounted by the Euro
pean markets, for there was no strength from
that direction, although Chicago was up about
a. cent on unfavorable American crop reports.
In the local markets there was nothing doing,
and 52c. the prevailing offer for No. 1 Walla

XEW TORIC STOCK QUOTATIONS.
Bnoyant Close With a Burst of Buy
ing Orders.
XEW TORIC. May IS. The stock market
contended successfully against the marked de
pression of the early dealings, and showed in
creasing strength as the day advanced. The
early losses were all retrieved, and the closo
was fairly buoyant, with a hurst of bujlng or
ders. Very notable net pains are shown by
the specialties and industrials, while the rail
roads generally are from a fraction to over 2
points higher. Th early depression had its in
ception in London, where stocks were sold
down sharply. Sugar and Tobacco were both
sold dow n sliarpl , but they met support of
a character which has been lacking for several
days past. An unwieldy short interest has been
formed, especially in Tobacco, in the course of
Its recent severe decline, and when the stock
Oegan to move up the demand from the bears
became precipitate
Tha strength developed in some New York
stocks added to the confusion of the bears.
Brooklyn Union Ga3 moved up 5s points, and
Consolidated Gas 1. to a level far above that
touched by this stock for many months past.
Even, the steel Industrials were bought and
moved up generally a point. The large buying
of Burlington was the feature of the Tallroad
list, but there -was a well-distributed demand
for railroad Stocks during the latter part of
the day, and the sudden jump in prices of
some of them indicated the uneasiness of the
ncmand from a short Interest.
No gold exports were announced for tomor
row's English steamers, and sterling exchange
fell lower. The strong1 return made today by.
the Imperial Bank of pcrmany kept pace with
-toe improved cot41Uoa of the EnglUa and
-FINANCIAL NEWS"
Trench Institutions, and afforded relief from
apprehension of any further gold exports at
present.

NEW TORK. May 18. The Commercial Ad
vertiser's London financial cablegram bays:
There was no public business in the markets
here today, and prices sagged on profit-taking
by professionals. Funds were weak on the
news that Russia had seized Masernpho. in
Corea. New York sold Tintos, and Paris at
first absorbed the offerings, but subsequently
there was a relapse, the news from Corea being
taken moro seriously In France than In Eng
land. The double option to end in July was
offered at 40. New York sold Anacondas, whllo
London is overbought. Americans were dull,
there being no London market for them, and
the- tendency was toward reaction. New York
support being trifling. The bank lost 02,000 in
gold to the Cape. Money was ery easy, main
ly, however, because of the Idleness of busi
ness rather than a superabundance of cash.

CHICAGO, May IS. For the greater part of
the session trade in wheat was quiet. The
opening was easy, July VtS'ftc under yesterday,
at CCHO-OOc, because Liverpool was lower. But
the price got no lower, for the bears had been
in control only for a brief period when the
weather began to make Itself felt. There was
no relief from the drought in the Northwest,
however, and. realizing1 this, shorts began to
cover. There were more rains In the South
west, and Illinois and Kansas reported dam
ages from the fly. Accordingly, more shorts
covered, and those who had the article held
to It. The close was iery close to the top, at

' MINES IN IDAHO,
Many Properties TFliloh Are Making?
Money.
DBLTA, IdahQ, May 16. Idaho Is add
ing Its quota of gold to the world's pro
duction. The gold placers alone of the
Cocur d'Alenes have yjelded about J3.0W,
0!X, yet It la a silver galena region. About
$30,OuO,000 bave been produced In Jfbrthern
Idaho since ISSi, the year of the great
rush. Pritchard, the original discoverer
of gold on Pritchard Creek, Is remaining
In Northern Idaho. He recently refused
540,000 for an interest In a mine near Os
born. Eagle City, -where once there were
3000 people, though, la given to farming.
At one time there were 22 palopns doing
a big business. None are there now, The
placers Jn that section are mostly worked
out, "but a few miles distant on Pritchard
Creek the largest .placer corporation in
the state Is at work.
About 70 placer miners are making good
wages In the vicinity of Delta. A num
ber of former Portlanders- are here, no
tably David R. Heustlss, Thomas Schust
er, William Mather, Neal McDougall and
Michael Titus.
Murray shows more sfgns of life than
at any time in 10 years. "A rich striker
was recently made In the Daddy mine, for
many yeare the property of ihe late"
George W. Copekind, formerly of Forest
Grove.
The vicinity of Myrtle Is a good placer
district Glllllland & McNall found the
largest nugget of the season. It weigned
JSO. They found many weighing from $25
to $50.
Tho placers are giving way to the ship
ping mines. Over on Sunset there are 21
mining companies at work, and thefe Is
every prospect of this becoming a second'
LeadvlHe. The Northern Pacific Is build
ing a branch line to Sunset from "Wallace,
and the line will prove a good feeder for
the Mtesoula branch.
Over Inthe vicinity of Sunset the Silver
Eagle Mining Company, In which Port
land people are Interested, Is represented
here by F. A. Knapp; who Is considered
a hustler. Mr. Knapp has elx men doing
development work, and by July 1 they
will be working on the ledge. Mr. Knnpp
has very little to say, but all who know
him believe he ha? a mine of far more
value than he Is willing to admit.
The Pragers, louts and Sidney, former-'
ly of the Farmers' & Mechanics' store,
Portland, have cleared up about J16.0M
this year in a mining deal over on Sun
set. The Toughnut property, owned by Port
land people, recently ehowed up a ledge
of galena that is 18 Inches at the top and
SG Inches at the bottom of the tunnel.
The State of Idaho produces one-fourth
of all tho lead In the "United States, or
about 70,000,000 pounds a year. There are
about 2000 men employed by the sh'pplng
mines of the Coeur d'Alenes, and nut
less than 1000 men are engaged In placqf
mining and development -work, A fair erf.
tlmate of the payroll ft thcee 3000 men
would be $10,500 per day.
On May 1 it was estimated that the
shipments of ore and concentrates run
over 15,000.000 pounds a month in the
Coeur d'Alenes.
Wallace, without doubt, is the liveliest
city In Idaho today. Gem, Wardner,
Mullan and Osborn are also moving Jo
the front. Some attribute the dlstclqt's
prosperity to the 'presence of Federal
troops, while others claim the district
would be further advanced without them
Opinions are about evenly divided?' dnd
