II COMMERCIAL AND The holiday trade In the retail portion of the city yesterday -was of biff propot tlons, and the wholesalers were doing fairly well.

The poultry market Is In an un-' settled condition, buyers howlng a de position to hold off until the last minute. Itccelpts were fairly heavy, and about the top figure for Hressed turkeys yesterday' was 3 cents, and ordinary stock sold still lower, with live dull at U cents. Chick ens were in very jjoor demand, and some pretty fair .stock was cleaned up at 12 50 per dozen. Some very large young dressed chickens sold at 1Q cents Tut the demand was plainly for some other fowl besides chickens. Gfejese moved well at quota tions, "but the demand for ducks seems to have slackened.

Trading .continued on- a very large scale. Possibly the interest was a trifle less broad than on some previous days of the week. The buying shbwed a Tendency to congestion In cer tain stocks, and the specialized strength of a few stocks was a dominant in fluence in sustaining prices. The expec tation Van rather general that a move ment to take profits would develop during the day. The prolonged continuance or the rise and the imminence of a. holiday both suggested the likelihood of a profit taking movement. Speculators as a rule are adverse to leaving their money tied up in the stock market over a prolonged holiday, and loans were made today to carry over until "Wednesday next. Tho London market this morning showed depression on the eve of the holi day, and this emphasized the impres sion of yesterday's rather sharp selling movement-near the otase here. Profession al operators there fell upon the market at the opening, but they made scarcely a more than momentary impression. Power ful support was forthcoming at the de cline, and before .the end of the day the tide of prices had turned strongly up ward again. The existence of a short in terest formed yesterday had -something to do with the resiliency, as the bears were very timid about leaving accounts open over tho holidays. The continued oase of money, in spite of carrying over of ioans until Wednes day, and-tne Xavorable forecast of tho bank statement, gave' the final flllp to the market, and It closed animated and strong at about the top level, the late profit-taking sales being confidently ab sorbed. Northern Paclflc sold ex-dlvldend and recovered strongly -from "yesterday's lato reaction, but the top price was M, which was short Of yesterday's price by a half point. The extraordinary specula tion In 'Northern Paclflc Is based on tne benefit to accrue from the retirement or the preferred stock, cancelling its priv ilege to share net earnings In excess or 4' per cent on the common. This calleo attention to various other common stocks whose stocks are limited by the terms or the issues- in their dividend rights. Atchi son common and Denver & Kio Grande common. Union Pacific and Southern Kail way were thus affected. There was a renewal of the advance in St. Paul, and Southern Pacific was 'lifted above Its 4"ormerrecord price to near 44. Sugar had its period of strength, and Brooklyn Transit rallied strongly after early, weakness on account of the state ments ot earnings for November. The in dications are that the movements of cur rency, this week will turn strongly in favor of New York, which is expected to amount to over $2,000,000. ,The bond market continued active, but there were some reactions on profit-taking.

Dec 2L Trading was, on the whole, very slow In tho local metal markets, a"nd of a holiday character. Sen timent was still ot a bearish nature, de spite another rise of 2 at London, as a result of a speculative movement In tin, the close there being firm, at 1S 5s. Though the local market responded "with an advance of 50 -points, It was onlyin a nominal .way, as tin was freely offered at $26 50, which was the closing figure, but found few takersl Copper on the London exchange was again a shade hlgh erand steady at 71 ISs 7d, but failed to influence tho market to any extent, prices remaining Unchanged. Lead was dull and nominally unchanged at $4 37, while abroad there was an advance of 2s 6d shown, to 16 2s Gd. A loss of 2s 6d at London" for spelter to 13 10s shows that 'price to be the lowest for the year, bu,t the local situation rated very slow at $4 124 17. Iron In England was dull, with Glasgow quoted at 61s, and Mlddle boro 71s 6d. In domestic classes the iron market wasrweak, no important features, ruling dull and nominally unchanged.

Orepron City Sevrer System Complete. OREGON CTTT. Dec. 21. The hill sewer system is completed, and the bills of the contractors. Indorsed by the engineer, amount to about $13,700. The contractors claim $1675 as compensation for extra work, caused by a- change in the original specifications, but the matter has not yet been adjusted. Considering the extra work required on account of the changes in the specifications by the engineer, the total cost of the sewer system will be much less than was anticipated. BANKERS etf &!!
