THE MORNIKG OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1901. 11 n COMMERCIAL ASP CoMer weather, or roms other factor In j tho business, haa shortened the receipts of potatoes and onions, and the market on both of theso products was very firm yenterelay. Potatoes have not yet ad vanced In price, but some of the onion dn&lers were considering the advisability of putting tho price up to 52 per sack for fancy stock, and it would undoubtedly stand this figure, providing there was not too much of an increase in receipts. The weather does not seem to have much effect on the egg1 market, for prices con tinue to drop. and. round lots were offer ing yesterday as low as 25 cents, although single case lets were still moving at 26 and even 2T& cents. Poultry was doing fairly weH at quotations, and veal and pork were in good demand. The wheat market continues erratic with a good undertone. Bank Clearing. Exchanges. Balances.

The country has heard that there was an advance In the wheat market and aB a result very little wheat 1b selling. Europe was in fairly good shape yesterday, but there "was not much Improvement in the East, and local buyers -were not Inclined to bid up to fancy figures for the cereal. Considerable wheat could undoubtedly have boon moved at 57 cents, but about 66 oents was the best bid made on Walla "Walla, and several of the dealers refused to go above 56 cents.

HcncUon From the Violent Bnlltsh ns of Mnndny. NKW TOnK. Jan. S.-r-Thc mexst striking 'eattiro in to4as stock market was the marked falling off tit the volume of trad lag. Centpared with yesterday's unprecp dvntcd record of over 2,000,000 enures, to day's sale of stocks fell back to L51L0CO aharas. The snap was clearly gone from 'the bull enthusiasm, and the best efforts FINANCIAL NEWS of the tutl leaders ig'oved "unavailing: to Induce any general or Imposing advance in prices, aneir enaeavors to aavance prices apparently failed to attract any considerable following, and the buying demand for stocks showed material Im pairment. The bear element on tho ex change gathered their forces for a drive against thfe market, and worKe'd some very considerable jeactions, and dislodged more or less long stpek, held for weak accounts1 -and on narrow margins. The equanimity with which the reaction was accomplished by the large holders of stock was, h3wcver, an Impressive demonstra tion of the continued underlying strength of the market. ' ' f' Thd pressure ,of liquidation was at no time very urgent, and the bears conduct ed their operations with the utmost timid ity. This waB shown by their eagerness to cover, and the frequent rallies from tho successive downward movement of prices. This disposition on the part of "the "bears continued ijntll the close. In fact, on th last and most notable dlpin prices, the bears 'covered with considerable symptoms of, disorder, and moved; prices up In a Jerky and forcible manner. The decreased activity of the market was manifest from the opening, which showed no such congested buying, with running sales of enormous blocks at wide quota tions, as has been the feature of the open ings "ever since New Year's dfiy. The real izing movement here was taken up In London today, and their opening declines reached from 1 to 1 in a number of tho Iternationals. Then came the invariable contest be tween speculative, forces lri the form of supporting orders and sharp bidding up of stocks newly brought forward Into prominence. Sugar; People's tas and Rock Island were the principal eustalnlng forces at the opening. The speculative contest was continued alh day. The greatest Ir regularity and most erratic fluctuations were among the grangers? coalers, Pa cifies and some of the trunk lines. Theee all had their early period of strength, and again were most prominent In the lata drive against the market. St. Paul rose at one time to 161. and'fell btfck late In the day to 156J4. The declines from the hlgn est In other members of these groups ran from 2 to 3 points. The- Southwestern railroad stocks were the most consistently strong of any In the list The special strength In Missouri Pacific had a stimulating effect on the whole group. This stock opened up a fraction and Inaugurated most of the rallies after ward during the day. . It closed at Sl. the top price, showing a net gain of 5 points. The only news to account for the rise was a published estimate placing the earnings of the road at a high per cent on the stock. The final strong rally of the market very materially reduced the day's declines and lifted many stocks from 1 to 2 points above ;ihe low level. Reading rallied 2. Talk" of impending gold exports this morning, and some un easiness over the unsettled conditions in the foreign markets were causes Inciting the more cautious attitude of speculation. 'ine nait ;n the upward course or prices naturally induced some taking of stock of the recent rumors and other motWes for the excited advances. This process of introspection naturally had some sobering effect after the speculative excess of the late market. The bond market continued its Irregular character on a volume -of business much less relatively than that In stocks. Total sales, par value, 54,320,000: United States refunding 2s advanced per cent on the last call. BONDS. TJ. S. 2s. ref. reg.105 do coupon 105 N. Y.

LONDON". Jan. 8. Tenders for 4.000.000 local loans at 9S will receive about 70 per cent of tne anove in full. Money wa3 not appreciably affected, owing to its abund ance. Discounts wore easy, the firmness of tho Continental exchanges and the com petition of foreign houses for bilis, with the plethora of money causing a down ward tendency on the stock exchange Bull dealings were small, and tha inclem ency of tho weather was not conducive to cheerfulness. Funds were fairly steady. Home rails were easier, owing to the be- lief that the snow storms will affect traffic returns. Americans opened dull ad irregular on profit-taking, but recov ered somewhat. There was a gotfoTUnder tone. and they closed steady. Missouri Pacific was the feature. Erie was espe cially euported. Kaffirs were the poorest department. Foreign Flnanclnl Kcwm. NEW YORK-, Jan. 8. The Commercial Advertiser's London cablegram says: The markets here were Inactive, heavy and uninteresting today. Americans showed not much of their recent activity. They were neglected and dull, closing de pressed on New York's attitude, except for Erles and Readings. Berlin bought Northern Pacific and sold Readings and the others. London thinks they will de rive most benefit from the Hill arrange ment, which. It Is expected, will be known in New York tonight. The Bank lost 70,000 gold to India and 8000 to South Africa. The local Joan tenders are regarded as successful. The allotment means that only 400,000 of. de posit money will be taken off the market. The India Government has resumed the purchase of silver.

May wheat opened lc higher at 78S79c, shorts covering, in some cases taking a hazard on the long side because Liverpool showed a slight advance In the face of the slump here yesterday. The trade was nervous and erratic, and continued so throughout the session. A reduction In outside specu lative interest in the market was notice able. On the bulge, longs sold to realize profits, an.d May wa3 forced back to 78e. At this point shorts were thrown Into an other fit of hysterics by a report that the local people had sold 25 loads for direct export. May accordingly was bid sharp ly up to 79o. This afforded another op portunity for profits to longs. The report of the export sales was contradicted, how ever. May closed c higher. Corn, remained firm during the better part of the forenoon, under the Influence of unsettled weather. Later sales were a bit freer. In sympathy with wheat's re action from the top. May clorod hie lower. Oats were fairly active, but trade was largely local. The market was Inclined to follow wheat. May c'.osed c lower. Jfhe feature of the provision market was the demand for pork from shorts. The opening was easy on the heavy hog re ceipts, but almost Immediate buying by a prominent operator sent shorts to cover and the market responded sharply.

PORTLAND, JanTT (To the Editor.) As this teems to be a time for public dis cussion of safety appliances for street cars, I want to call attention to the de ficient brakes or braking appliances. . I am interested in such things, because of a fondness for mechanics, and because as a regular passenger pn the Waslilngton street. line, 1 am Impressed with the risks to the public and tho hardships to the motormen, owing to a lack of easy and swift brakes. Boston is the heaven of electric street railways. I am familiar with the cars of that city, of New York, Cincinnati and Chicago, and I notice that in those places a motorman of average size and strength stops his car easily and quickly. In fact, it must necessarily be so, or else the street-car would be a veritable Car of Juggernaut, and the motorman would be soon exhausted by the frequent stops. I have no complaint to make against the Washington-street line. Their cars are good and their officials and employes intelligent and courteous, but I ride gen erally on the front platform for tne pleas ure of a smoke, and I have frequently seen a big powerful motorman put on his whole strength for nearly a block (going down hill), before he brought his car to a stand. This is unfair to human muscle and dangerous to pedestrians. I asked Stricture JCniat! ntwuuc, and 'strengthens the. Seminal Ducts, stopping crams ana JSmisstoas In fifteen Days.

I said: "Why don't you Tun tho car to the shop," and he replied I ",Tha does no good. .Either the men have time, but for some reason shop .Work on the brakes does no good. Often the uuit i. uimciauiuu juaiicip, ur nicy uuu t car comes- back harder to brake than ever. Why don't I complain to the superinten dent? Well, no superintendent has any use for a kicker, and I -want to hold my Job." I know this trouble can be remedied, so I haVe made It my business to call pub lic attention to it. 23D ST. Modification of Game Law.. PORTLAND, Jan. 8. (To the Editor.) As might be expected, there appears some dissatisfaction with certain sections of the proposed changes of the game laws. We all appreciate the fact that it is well nigh Impossible to construct a law that will absolutely satisfy everybody, and the writer is in a position to know that the present proposals as to the recon struction of the code were only arrived at after carefully considering expressions of opinion from many representative peo ple from all sections of the state. The desire has purely been to create a law conforming as nearly as possible to the popular desire. A reasonable and honest effort has been made to Induce the extremists to meet a'f way with a strong Inclination towards giving the game a fair show, in the" belief that to have any a few years hence we must give it much better protection than has been thus far provided. Some crave for an early open season and a long season, others demand that the season open late and. be short, with a view to leaving seed. for. the bene fit of coming generations. I would like to make a suggestion as to tho clause relating to the lordly Ring Neck Pheasant. Let the proposal to open the season September 15 stand, but pro vide that only cocks may be killed, at least for a couple of years. This would do away with tho very proper objection of many that many of the birds are too small to kill at that date. The cocky must be well grown and strong on the wing before even an expert can tell what sex It belongs to and the stunner dare not take chances of killing a hen by shooting too small chicks. Furthermore, the hunt er would only be compelled by such a law to benefit himself, for If all the hens wero left. In the course of a year or two they would be raising more roosters than all the crack shots could get away with. These birds are polygamous, and one cock Is ample to take good care of at least a dozen hens. This is no original Idea, and Is .always adopted in European preserves at periods when It Is desired to multiply the supply. There are also other very good reasons why the cocks should be thinned out neclaliy when they pre dominate in numbers. T. AT THE HOTELS.
