THE MORNING OREGQNIA-N, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY Gr 1901.. 11 COMMERCIAL AND The -wheat market continued on Its dOTrnward course yesterday, and until It ehcrws some signs of finding bottom, or steadies up asain, there will be but little business in that direction- Among the produce markets yesterday, the only busi ness of consequence was the distribution of steamer freight, which came in the night before. California vegetables ar rived In good shape, and round an excel lent demand. Oats are firm and higher, and potatoes are decidedly weak, in spite of the presence of a cold snap that threat ens to Interfere with receipts. Poultry has stiffened up again, and the few sales made yesterday were at prices materially above those of last week. Eggs are steady at 25 cents, with enough on hand to prevent an advance for a day or two, no matter what the condition of the weather may be. Bank Clearings. Exchanges. Balances.

The wtatat market was still in the dumps yesterday, with enough of a weight haririrur to it in Europe and the East to prevent anything like an active market in this port. Exporters Were Indifferent abdut doing business with the Ideas of sellers so far out of line with their own, and while they were still quoting D5 cents for "Walla "walla, nothing was selling. Freights are steady but inactive, ship owners refusing to share in the weakness In the wheat market. Another cargo finished loading yesterday, and two others are nearly ready to finish.

Acthe Trading "With Many Varia tion in Prices. NEW YORK. Feb. 5. Today's market was very active and ended today gener ally higher, but prices of stocks went through many variations In the course of trading. The market was extremely spotty throughout, but the constant crop ping out of new and aggressive points of strength served to overcome the disposi tion to sell on the part of the timid hold FINANCIAL NEWS ers of long stock, as well as by the bear traders, who were disposed to aggressive tactics early In the day. The opening bulge In prices met with a decidedly dis couraging reception, and some leading stocks on the list were carried below last night's level under the heavy burden of profit taking sales and operations by the bears. .Yesterday's leaders in the specu lative advance. Including Louisville & Nashville, Atchison, Union Pacific and Rock Island, were all carried below last night's level, and the drooping tendency Of prices became more manifest. With weakness In these Important stocks after yesterday's large buying In them for spec ulation, the whole market necessarily made some, response and the earlier gains elsewhere were largely curtailed. The steel stocks showed themselves not so yielding as those in other portions of the list, when the force of the selling movement had expended itself there. The steel stocks were an Important Influence on the market. Buying was credited to insiders, and there was a recurrence of recent rumors of a coming wholesale con solidation of the great corporations in the trade. The opening rise in the South westerns was not so well maintained, al though Missouri Pacifies made a strong recovery later, rising to 91. and the Wa bash securities were very largely bought. It was rumored that Chicago & Eastern Illinois had passed to the control of the Missouri Pacific or St Louis Southwest ern, and the lately prevalent rumors of a general consolidation of the Southwestern railway systems still retained their force in the speculation. Chicago & Eastern Illinois rose 64 and the preferred 14- A spurt of 34 In Tobacco about midday was a feature. There were a very large number of stocks of smaller railroads which ad vanced sharply under the prevailing im pression that absorption of such roads by the larger railroad systems Is the order of the day. Hocking Valley rose 44, do preferred 34. Pere Marquette 5, Minne apolis & St. Louis 24, Evansville & Terre Haute 5, Lake Erie & Western 2, and quite an extended list from 1 to 2 points. The most Important movement of the day was In the later -dealings, -when, the -coalers and Pennsylvania developed sudden and aggressive strength, after showing symptoms of heaviness earlier -in the day on a statement that the dividend on Read ing first preferred would not be Increased for the present. The movement seemed to be based on rumors as to the disposition of Lehigh Valley, different reports as signing it to Lackawanna, Reading and Erie. Gains in the latter were 34 for Lackawanna. 3 for Delaware & Hudson, and 1 to 2 points for other members of the group. The moVerhept in Pennsyl vania was not explained, but resulted In an advance of 4 points. Union Pacific and Southern Pacific also succeeded in throwing off their depres sion, the former advancing to 91, and the latter to 9S through heavy offerings in both cases. A flurry to 3 per cent In the call money rate was not much heeded, although It calls attention to the fact that last week's enormous Incursion into the reserve forces by reason of the Han expansion of over $30,000,000 was a reality to be reckoned with. The reaction in sterling exchange, and the Impression that an outward gold movement to London is averted for the present, owing to the de cline In the money rate, helped to offset the effect of the .former tone of the local money market. The absorption of middle and lower grade bonds continued very heavy and at advancing prices. Total sales, par value, $7,710,000. United States 3s advanced 4 per cent on the last call. BONDS. TJ.

The Commercial Advertiser's London financial cablegram says: Though business on the stock exchange here was restricted today, the tone was cheerful and prices were pretty strong. The American department attracted the most interest, and the market for Its shares was strong throughout. In spite of the fact that business was greatly inter fered with by the interruption for three hours of the cable. This trouble was due to the storm. Buying was very free. The Erie shares and vthe Atchisons were in great demand. There was some selling to realize In the Southern and Union Pacific Issues. Berlin was buying Canadian Pa cific confidently all day. Bar gold to the extent of 48,000 was bought by the bank. Money was easier. Opinion here is divided on the question of the reduc tion of the bank rate, although advices that gold will soon be coming from New York strengthened the execution of -a cut. Stocks in London.

Wheat was Tlull to the point of stagnation, all day. May started out 44c higher at 75 to 75 4. merely because Liverpool, which has been Indifferent to our declines and our advances, failed to reflect the drop here yesterday, and because Northwestern fresh arrivals were moderate. The mar ket quickly touched 75. Soon, however, driblets of long stuff came out, some for New York, some for the foreign account and more from local scalpers. May grad ually worked off to 75, where something of a surprise was In store for the talent. Selling on stop-loss orders had been ex pected at that point, but Instead of these the majority of commission houses had small purchases to make. This steadied theihar ket for a few minutes, but the close was heavy. May c under the pre vious close at 74c Corn suffered from neglect, but never the less maintained a' Arm front. May closed a shade lower at 394c. Oats were fairly active and firm. May closed a shade higher at 25c. Provisions were flat. The opening wa3 24c lower under the Influence of heavy hog receipts, and a drop in prices at the stockyards. A little baying caused a small rally early, but prices soon declined, packers having taken advantage of the slight bulge to sell. May pork closed 24c lower, lard 5c down and ribs 24Sc depressed.

Mr. White, of North Carolina, who goes out on the 3d of March, will probably be the last of his race for many years to occupy a seat in the National Legislature The restriction placed upon negro suflrage in the Southern States "will prevent any more from being elected to either house of Congress. They are grow ing scarcer and scarcer In legislative bod ies in the South, and by and by will have no representation there. People who are Interested in this subject should come' to Washington' and see the last of the Mo hicans before tho session closes. Twenty five years ago there were a dozen colored men on the floor Of the House and two or three In the Senate. Some of them were able, upright and useful men. Bruce was the. last and the best of the colored Senators and White closes the career of the negor In the lower house. ' No Cure No Pay THE JHODERN APPLIANCE. A posUlvs wy to perfect manhood.
