COHMERCI AL'ARD
Portland merchants haveDeen enjoying
fin exceptionally good W-lnter trade dur
ing the last tyeek In NoremVer, and
while the greatest activity I centered In
Thanksgiving luxuries, there Is also a
Jlne business" In all lines. The annual
distribution of turkey and Its trimmings
has kept the produce and commission
houses very busy since 'Monday, and
while therewasoonsiaeKCBle weakness
toward the close yesterday, prices on the
whole were fairly .satisfactory.
Perhaps the worst feature of the trade
situation Is the 'continued weakness of
Tvljeat. prices continuing tofallaway In
Europe and the East and nothing but a
weaker feeling in freights preventing a
.general slump In the local market. There
is a -conliriuatton of the strength that
has been so manifest in. ihe hop mar
ket, but stocks have been sowell cleaned
up that this , feature" of na trade situa
tion Is ot less importance than it was a
month ago, There is hut, little doing In
wool, but the market Is steady. Onions
are much firmer, 'and some f the fancy
stock is held as high as $1 75 per sack.
At the same time there is , considerable
good .stock offering at about SI 50 per
sack. Potatoes are- steady with a. 'good
shipping demand for best Burbanks. But
ter is firm and "higher, and the egg mar
kot is about on a standstill at the high
est point of the season.. Pork and veal
are slightly easier under heavy receipts
and only moderate demand, There are
no changes .of importance in the grocery
markets.
"VyHEAT The wheat market is -still. on
the dowri grade, and has apparently Jost
control of the brake. It Is making no
wild plunges toward a lower level, bu,t
drifts down so easily that the movement
is scarcely perceptible. At the same time
like the entomological specimen In the
poem, It "gets there Just the same." The
December option -in Chicago is down
within a very small fraction of 70 cents,
the figure et which It started on the re
ceipt rise, which carried it to SS contain
the Portland market, there has been less
change within the past month than any
where else. This Is due to the fact that
Trhlle wheat was losing ground In the
Eastern and-foreign markets, freights
were following the same course locally.
They are still higher than the normal
figures but -hve-f alien about-6 cents or
C cents perbushelin. the local market,
and this facfialorie prevents Walla "Walla
wheat from "selling , on he wrong side of
60 cents IifthaJorUana market
Prices this, week, In spljer of the de
clines In dthormarkets nave ruled fairly
steady arourfELSi Sehls. omeround lots
.changed hands at a cent above this fig
ure, but yesterday most of the dealers
were holding off when anything was of
fered them m,uch .above, 534 cents.. A
considerable 'amount was offering at 54
cents, but buyers at that figure were
scarce. The demand for hlueslem Is
limited, and quotations Are nominal at
the usual differential for 3 cents more
than "Walla "Walla, although some of the
dealers refuse to grant more than 2 cents
premium.
The condition of the coming crop in
America Is much better than, on a corre
sponding date last year, prospects in
California being exceptionally good. There
are the usual confUctlnureports from
the Argentine, which at the present time
Is the greatest factor in the situation aside
.from the visible and -vrorld's-.-shlpments.
Broomhall under date of the November 13
has the following from the Argentine:
Some very bad reports of crop dam
Ago by storms in. Santo Fe have been re
ceived since this day weok, and, although
It appars that these were somewhat ex
aggerated and fine weather is now pre
vailing, yet estimates of the exportable
surplus of the wheat only range from
4.000,000 to 6.000,000 quarters. Adding 1,500,
000 quarters for the quantity exported
from the last crop since August 1. and de
ducting 1,000,000 from what would be re
tained for shipment in the last half of
1801, the above figures Indicate some
5,500,000 quarters as the shipment of the
current cereal year as usually reckoned,
on lhls.,slde, and, this cornpares-with 20,
(Xfc.OOO quarters shipped In 1S99-1900.
.The .Cincinnati Price CurrentrJn-revIcw-lng
the condition of American crops un
der date, of November 21, says:
General rains , and mild weatlfer have
extended over the Ohio and Mississippi
Valleys and Lake regions during .the past
week, so that now there is scarcely a
TtfoK lq the entire Winter wheat j belt
where there Is a scarcity of moisture for
the cropprerlous to-entering Winter con
ditions. In the Western States the clear
ing up of the weather has been accom
panied -by lower temperature. The con
dition of the growing Winter wheat is
full as favorable as a week ago. and
c4nparatjvely may be regarded as fairly
good. From all sections come reports
of a very good stand, especially to the
late-aowh, "which constitutes the bulk of
the sowings. The only drawback to the
situation is the presence of fly in the
earlj-sowrijth.Qflt. Jn Kansas the plant
is too ran'Kwand; the weather prevents Its
being grazed down properly. In some lo
calities, notably in Kentucky, the dry
weather was beginning to give the crop
an unfavorable appearance.
WQOL The Bast is not showing as
much interest In the wool- market as
holders Vould like to see. " A'feVr buy
crs ro in the field, but they afe. not
making? very extravagant bids; and until
there Is more life in the situation, holders
do 'n6t seem disposed to crowd thofr s"tock
on the market. The situation In the East
is- thus reported by th"e New Tork
Journal ot Commerce, under date of No
vember 24:
The market has naturally been more or
less affected "by the recent failures In
wool and. woolens, the million-dollar Bos
ton embarrassment while not directly af
fecting local dealers, has had a senti
mental influence upon the market and
bujers have used the circumstance as
& handle to depress the Ideas of holders.
The transections of the week have not
shown any material development, and
manufacturers show no particular -desire
to add to their holdings at this time.
Notwithstanding (these Indifferent condi
tions dealers are as firm as during the
last few weeks, and buyers are beginning
Jo believe that they will not be able lo
obtain any low er figures, for some time
at least. Tet, In spite, of this fact, there
Is no disposition to speculate, manufac
turers preferring to buy as theyneed
etock rather than to speculate, with the
possibility of being caught oh a lower
market. A good deal more business
might have been transacted had holders
been a little less firm In their ideas and
had they yielded to the Importunities -of
wouldsbe. bujfirs. .
' HOPS-The few remaining hops In this
atate are so firmly held that there is not
much SHftlnesso doing. Therei wer: prac
tically no jxy grade hops produced In
the state this year, and while the best
stock has been about cleaned oik, that
which remains Is sufficiently fcood q5aF
Jly to rank pretty high in ordinary years,
and It, is steady at quotations wltb,-,yery

lleving that they will yet realize more

BUTTER The butter market has
braced up under the -influence of shbrten
ing receipts and a" steady, demand, and
the best grades .of creamery with an es
tablished trade are now bringing 55 cents,
'with sqme pretty gcod stock going at 45
cents. and 50 cents. There Is more of a
demand from outside, pplnts, and unless
the East should again get lnto"thls terri
tory, prices will rule fairly steadjr. for
awhile, and may show a further advance.
There is a good demand for store butter
at 25 cents to" v32 cents.
EGOS-jFresh ranch eggs are holding
steady around1 35 cents', but fthere Is a
slight prospect vof weakening if receipts
continue to pick up as they have been
dolng for the past two days. ' There are
some very good'Eastern eggs in the mar
ket," and as they sell at 25274 cents for
fresh stock. It 'will be a difficult matter
to keep Oregon stock up around 35 cents
much longer. Eastern eggs of the cold-f
storage yartety, are still qnlte' plentiful
at from 20 cents, dp according-to age and
length of time that has elapsed since they
loft cold storage.
PC'UlRY -Until yesterday ,morning,
the poultry market held fairly steady in
.spite ofe liberal recejpts, but as, .usuaj,
some of the shippers held back-until-the
last moment, and dumped their stock of
turkeys on- aTnarket -that was already
struggling under about all that lt-coud
carry. The natural result -followed, and
prices sagged away as the dayvwore on,
and in- order to make a clean-up, some
Iota sold as -low as 10 cents per pound,
with "strjetly pulls" selling still lower.
Some--oholce4ots sold up as high, as 14
cents and even 15 cents in exceptional
cases, but the bulk of the gdod stock
yesterday moved at 12 and ,13 cents for
dressed, with- live plentiful at 10 cents
and 11 cents, the Jatter being an extreme
figure wlh some s'elllng" down as low
as 8- cents and ilxents. Geese, did fairly
well, everything considered, and best
live stock sold well at $S per dozen, with
dressed In demand at 11 cents and 12
cents per "pound. Ducks were In fair
demand. at quotations, but there was no
demand for chickens, and hundreds of
tfiese'tOiwl-.were carried over. An oc
icaslbnallotj of j dressed were sold at 9
10 cents, but most of the offerings were
.difficult to move at 8 cents.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKETS.
Approaching: Holiday Caused a Cur
tailment of Speculative Ventures.
i NEW. YORK, Nov. 28. Today's stock
market -was the dullest since the Monday
preceding the election. There were no
dealings f on any considerable scale, and
the movement of .prices was sluggish and
Irregular, and not Important. The, market
narrowed very considerably, the'number
of different stocks dealt In being smaller
than for many days past It Is not Im
probable that tomorrow's holiday promot
ed the curtailment of speculative ven
tures. The dealings were left very largely
In the hands of .room traders, and the
larger Interests and the public were ap
parently out of the market entirely. There
was no great pressure of liquidation, but
when any considerable volume of stocks
was offored, there was not sufficient de
mand to sustain the price. On thepther
hand, even small demand wgs sinlfclent
to effect a considerable advance hi" prices
as the selling orders in the- market were
also on a very- small scale. The'market
was very generally heavy in the earlier
pa'rt of the day, largely from tiej In
fluence of the m weakness in the Bpndon
market, ... ,,
The disclosure through yesterday's Lon
don settlement of a long a&count in Amer
icans is interpreted as weakening the
technical position of this market, and
the growing tightness of mdney in London
gives rise to the apprehension that New
York may have to absorb considerable
speculative liquidation from that center.
In fact, -the selling for London account
today was estimated as high as 75,000
shares on balance.
- Both call money and discounts In Lon
don arc above the bankv rate.
Our owl money market continues un
ruffled, call loan rates falling away a
shado on the continued absorption of
funds on Sub-Treasury operations, and
the postponement of the return flow of
fuqds from the Interior. The early heavi
ness "of themarliet gave way, quite gen
erally to a recovery In the" late dealings
after Londdn had ceased selling. Prob
ably covering- bjr room shorts was a fac
tor in this movement. ' The gains were
not all retained no the close, which 'was
moderately active and irregular.
Amalgamated Copper continued to show
a weakness supposed to be on account of
the apprehension of unfavorable legisla
tion in Montana. The new Chicago &
Alton stocks were' largely bought at Ad
vances of" 2 and 1 for the common
and preferred respectively. The rubber
stocks were notably weak, but recovered
part of their losses.
, The "bond market was quite active and
yielded In spots. Total sales par valjie,
$4,055,000. United States -bonds were all
unchanged on the last call.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2$. The abandonment
of the November corn deal was pre-eminently
the feature on the boardi Phillips,
who has -controlled the market, settled
with the shorts yesterday, giving" them
670,000 bushelsat an average price of. 49c.
Today he closed out 250,000 bushels, 'all
that was left cf his line. Iri- order to let
some small holders out easily, he held
the price up during the forenoon. This
being accomplished, he withdrew his sup
port, and the market, which 'opened at
4950c and clung "between those figures,
dropped sharply to 41c, at:whicn' It closed,
9c under yesterday. December was gov
erned by local conditions, and It lacking
bull support, ruled easy, selling "between
353tc and 35c, and closed c down,
at 35c. Shorts settled as a last resort,
the move to bring back corn from the
East having failed. '
December wheat touched the low price
for this crop, the only feature the mar
ket 'had to offer,' The market opened a
shade up, at 70Vic705, and touched
70 c because- ot 'unexpected (steadiness at
Liverpool in the face ot the' weakness

CORJT CORNER. CLOSED.
The Shorts "Were Permitted to Settle
at FIftr Centit.
CHICAGO, Nov." 2S. Finding themselves-
-unable to produce enough con
tract corn to fill sales made to George H.
Phillips for November delivery the
Bhorts, including several leading elevator
Anna, it was announced today" on the
Board of Trade, had agreed lo settle their
shortage af 60 cents. The announcement
came as a great surprise to those traders
who had "tailed" the Phlljips operation.
At the 'moment-November corn was sell
ing around 50 cents, 1 cent from the high
est price on the deal. A rush to sell fol
lowed, arid the market mader nO lialt
until Just before the closing bell, when It
rested at 41 cents.
Xt Is understood those standing sY,ort to
Phillips since he began gathering up of
ferings of Noveiriber corrif about a month
ago, exhausted every effort, to secure
enough No. 2 com to All their soles. The
local stocks amounted to a trifle "over
1,000,000 bushels, and the newcrop of corn
was too short for delivery. Plans were
even considered to bring back a lot of
corn from the Dist, but these were aban
doned, and, as. Phillips was upheld by the
Board of Trade committee of appeals In
his protest against a lot of kiln-dried
corn, the shorts finally, late yesterday,
agreed to give over the fight and settle
with Phillips at the even half dollar,
where, it was apparent, the manipulator
would have no trouble In holding the
market.
Various estimates wero hazarded as o
the profits of the "squeeze." As Phillips
Is said to ' have accumulated a lino of
more than 2,000.000 bushels around 35
cents, It was admitted that his profits
must have reached Into the hundreds of
thousand?. On this point Phillips' was,
however, entirely noncommittal.

WANTS O. R. & N. TO DIVIDE
This Is the "Way Mr. Reed Interprets
Mr. Warren's Letter.
PORTLAND, "Nov. -28. (To 'the Editor.)
My good friend, D. K. Warren, makes
the argument In today's Oregonlan that
because the distance from Fiendletoii to
-Seattle Is 339 miles via the Northern Pa
cific, and' only 332 miles to Astoria via the
O. R. &XN. and Astoria & Columbia River
Railways combined, 'therefore 'the O. R,
& Nv should be compelled to carry grain
to Astoria at the same rate that ' Is
charged to Seattle. I see that $3 50 per
ton Is the rate now to Seattle and Port
land on grain from Pendlettfn.
Mr. Warren's contention would be quite
correct If the O. R. & N. Co. owned a
railroad from Pendleton to Astoria. But
It doesn't. Therefore, Is Mr. Warren beld
enough to tell 'me that If by any fortu
itous circumstance (Henry Vlllard's
brain) one railway should build or secure,
as the O. R. & N. has done, a shorter
line to foreign ships at tidewater than the
L Northern Pacific did to Seattle, the ,0. R.
& N. Co. should be compelled by law to
pay out of this $3 50 a pro rata per mile
(which would be $1 05 per ton of that
freight) to its rival, the Astoria Railway,
and only receive as Its share thereof the
remaining $2 45 .per ton, for its haul to
Portland, Instead of the through ratet of
$3 50? If such compulsory agreement
were "established, would not the O. R. &
N. say, "Rather than give It to our rival
we will make the local rate $2 45, as that
Is all we can receive, anyway, If the
grain goes over the Astoria Railway"?
If so, where would Astoria be? The Leg
islature could not qbject, as It would be
charging less for a shorter haul than for
a longer haul, and no law can demand
that Pacific Coast grain be hauled past
foreign ships at Portland, 100- miles far
ther down, for the privilege of being
loaded at Astoria, when the rate is
cheaper to Portland.
In short this Is the whole matter In a
nutshell, and the true meaning of As
toria's demand for a common-point rate'
Is to tie Portland up for years, so that
she will be compelled jfo ship nothing to
foreign ports at any less rates than As
toria can with Its- longer 'railway -haul,
and give the Astoria Railway Its pro
rata per mile for such greater haul over
a railway which Is not necessary. With
what results? That at the very lowest
the producers would have to pay 50 cents
per ton more for-the extra haul ot 100
miles probably $L This Is similar to the
highwayman, who,f seeing his industrious
neighbor prospering, says, "Look liere, 1
want a share of that $3 50. a ton you are
now making. Let us divide on a pro rata
per mile basis, or I'll raise thunder.''
Ten years ago when I was among them
the Astoria people said Astoria's great fu
ture was based upon developing the vast
coal and lumber resources behind her in
the Nehalemfto be carried to Astoria by
rail. Why don't she tackle them now?
With my $155,000 already invested therein,
she. has a good start6r to work" upon 'and
leave Portland alone. Better, still, would
It be for her to urge Mr. Hammond to
extend his railway to Eastern Oregon,
and thereafter I guarantee he will soon
compel tho O. R. & N. to give the-people
ot Astoria all the common-point rates
they want.
I 'have now no Interests whatever either
In Portland or Astoria; nevertheless, It
does seem to me foolish to see the Im
practicable arguments used, both pro and
con. In this common-point controversy.
