THE MOUSING OKEGONIAN, SATURDAY, MARCH 16, 1901. 11 COMMERCIAL AND "Wheat took a brisk turn upward yes- teraay and there was much firmness In nearly all of the markets. Xilverpool showed a decided advance on futures, hut was tame on cargoes. In the local market but little was offering, and the strength apparent elsewhere .was lacking. Business In other lines was very good yesterday, with no changes of conse quence In prices. The California orange crop is not working off to very good ad vantage so far as Portland trade Is con cerned, as prices are down near the low est on record. Very fine navels can be purchased for er box, and good stock for less. Poultry sold well again yes terday, excopfe;- for- the scrubs- which, as usual, arc fn. very poor demand at any price. Eggs are firming up a little, with some dealers holding for 12& 'cents. Plenty f stock is still obtainable, -however, at 12 cents a dozen. Bank Clearing. Exchange.

Some "Walla "Walla wheat sold yes terday at 502 cents per bushel, and re ports were In circulation that 57 cents was being paid In the Interior. This Is about a cent or two above the export value, as figured out by shippers in this port, but If the market advances and freights decline, they may get out even on the transaction. San Francisco is de cidedly "bullish" on both wheat and freights, and- there was more life In that market than has been in evidence for eeveral weeks.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. Increased Activity, Due to Manipu lation of Professional Operators!. NEW YORK. March 15. There was In creased activity in the stock market to iday and a disposition was manifested to come back to operations in the usually prominent stocks. The market, however still continued very spotty. And a number of usually dormant stocks were again made conspicuous Jn the dealings. It was evident that powerful professional oper ators were making a systematic progress through the list, taking profits on a heavy scale in .stocks which have recently shown considerable advances while bid FINANCIAL NEWS I Hngf Up prices at new points. Yesterday's speculative movement was continued in some of the stocks which started up ward then, while aggressive new points of strength were developed. Among the latter Burlington was the most conspicu ous, all things considered, and had the most influence in encouraging buying of other. stocks. It was lifted 3& over last night at one time, in spite of the drag ging tendency of other members of the granger group which were under pressure all day. especially St. Paul and the .Chi cago Great "Western 'stocks, the common and preferred "B" of the latter company relapsing violently from their recent show of strength. The anthracite coalers also suffered from profit taking on yesterday's late ad vance. There was a mid-day spurt In the group led by the Eries, but they fell, back again on renewed selling. The South western stocks showed a notable check to their recent strong upward tendency, and sold steadily all day. The St. Louis and San Francisco stocks were all reac tionary, losing from 1 to 2V4. Among new points of strength developed today, Illinois Central was conspicuous, reaching 354. Chicago & Eastern Illinois rose 4 on smaller transactions. There were heavy dealings In American and Continental To bacco preferred, at advances of 3 and 2 respectively. Tennessee Coal rose V&, and Pressed Steel Car preferred 2. Chicago Terminal Transfer preferred rose 3J4- The market closed with the price move ment very much confused, some few stocks selling at the top, but the major ity of the list under the pressure of proflt taklng. The money market continued un disturbed in spite of the prospect of a weak bank statement Business In railroad bonds continued very large, the Issues of several "Western railroads continuing the favorites. Total sales, 5S.CS5.O0O. United States bonds were unchanged on the last call. BONDS. U. S. 2s. ref. reg.lOSUIN. Y.

May opened c higher at 75i75c, Influenced by lightei Argentine shipments and an advance at Liverpool in the face of our slight de cline yesterday. Moderate Northwest re ceipts were a contributory factor In the strength. Profit-taking on a fairly lib eral scale forced the market back 75c early. Offerings became lighter at this decline, and the market steadied and slowly rallied to 76c. Longs again sought profits, but numerous short lines needed protection at that figure, and after nesu fating a few minutes the market shot up to 76c and closed strong at that figure, 11c over yesterday. St, Louis inter ests, presumably covering shorts, were heavy purchasers at over 76c Corn was firm, and the trade was on a liberal scale at times. Higher cables, un settled weather, light country offerings and sympathy with wheat caused a strong feeling. May closed c higher at 415741c. Oats were moderately active and firm, in sympathy with corn and wheat. May closed (gc higher at 2323c. Light hog receipts, higher prices for hogs and the grain strength combined to support the provision market. May pork closed 27c higher, lard and ribs each 10c up.

OirnerMuip of Telegraphs. WASHINGTON. March 15. Thomas F. Clark, vice-president of the Western Union Telegraph Company, testified be fore the industrial committee concerning the relations of the telegraph company to the public He devoted much of his time to the consideration of the wisdom of Government ownership of the telegraph. "Those who base their advocacy of the system upon its working In Great Britain, Belgium and Switzerland ignore vital dif ferences between the conditions in those countries and in the United States," Mr. Clark said. "In this country there are only 67 people to each mile of wire, while there are In Great Britain 100 people to the mile, In Switzerland 220 and in Belgium 321. In the United States there are 1.11S.0S6 miles of wire, and In all of Europe 1,5S5,27 miles. All told, there are 29,000 places In the United States reached by telegraph, while In Great Britain there are only 116 places thus reached. In this country al most 50 per cent of the postofQces have telegraph connections, while In Great Brit ain only about one-quarter of them aro thus equipped." While admitting that rates on local mes sages in Europe are lower than in tho United States, Mr. Clark contended that on through messages they are compara tively higher. DAILY CITY STATISTICS.
