prices are still at the best of the season,

strength of the market is sufficient to re
strict operations of this sort. Butter and
eggs are weak, and tending lower. Poul
try continues steady, and pork is very
Arm. Veal is easier,
WHEAT One million bushels of -wheat
(flour included) have, been floated at this
port in the, -first JO, days of. the, current
months This is a volume of business sel
dom reached, even in the height of the
season, bu, unfortunately, does not cut
-much of-a figure in making an active
- -market at the present time, as all of it
"was on old account. "Exporters have -been
very wary about placing themselves at the
mercy -of the-farmers this reason, and no
matterhowthlck the ships base "bunched"
on them, the -wheat lias been waiting. It
is this fact, -which is causing the -present
deadlock. Shipowners are not disposed
to accept the lower level "of rates war
xanted by the condition of the "world's
wheat markets, and wheatgrowers will not
sell on the basis of freights as they are
now quoted. A few straggling '.sales of
Walla Walla have been made during the
-week, at prices ranging from 56 to 58
cents, the latter being an extreme figure,
'which -was not obtainable yesterday. -The
ruling c.uotation for the past fcwodays
lias been 57 cents. Bluestem is nominal
.at a pr-emium ot-2 cents.
The Eastern market has shown consid
erable -weakness for several days, and
this weakness- has struck a responsive
chord in the European market, which fol
lows an American, decline with the speed
of the hare, but trails in after American
'strength with the gait of a tortdlse. Per
f ect crop conditions practically sill over
the 'world eeem to be the great factors
which are making such a weak market.
There is a small-sized flea in the bears"
good crop ointment in the shape of immi
nent drought in California and the. Hes
sian fly in Texas and Oklahoma., Aside
from this, the American crop" Js about as
near perfection as it ever appears at this
date. ,. ' t
There is a large eteamer and a large
sailer-on the spot free list at this port
atrthe present time, and two large sailers
on Puget Sound. In a period of activity,
these four snips would have but little
effect on the freight situation; but, com
ing M.t a time when there is no wheat
celling, they are hanging like a dead
weight on the market. With no trans
actions 'recently -for a guide, an accurate
Quotation on freights is not easily, made,
but for spot tonnage, a nominal quotation
of 35 shiningsto 36s 3d would not be far
outof thVway. There Is nothing doing
vin distantT-shlps, exporters being practical
ly unanimous in the belief that they are
dangerous things to handle at the present
time.
'WOOIr-Shearing has not yet become
general east-of the mountains, and there
is alsp ponderable yet to be done in
the Willamette Valley. This accounts in
& measure for the lack of interest in the
situation locally, and the only receipts of
new-clip wool which "have been received
are small lots taken from mutton sheep
and a few consignments from the Valley,
where shearing is earlier than it is east
of the Cascades. The Eastern markets
show a little better tone, but there is no
increase in prices, and dealers predict that
an attempted advance would check the
small amount of business that is now be
ing handled. With such a small amount
of business doing, quotations given else
where are to a -certain extent homhiai.
HOPS Only a -limited -amount of new--crop
contracting Is, reported, an growers
are asking higher figures. The old -crop
is practically all.oufc of the way In this
state, and thereare very few left on the
Pacific Coast." Conditions up to ihe pres
ent time are quite favorable for the .grow
ing crop, and tbe;fields are said to aggre
gate fully 1000 acres more than those- for
Jast season. Tl-evlnes aremuch farther
along than they were at this date last
2ear, an$ ar,Jn.,perfect. condition.-
j; BUTTEH-iFIensf fiflch grass "hnd fine
weather have' resulted in increasing .!he
receipts of butter tpa point where a 'de
cline is again imminent. .Sales are still
made at 22 cents tor best creamery, but
trtocks will not clean up at these figures,

choice occasionally brlnging-a cent- more,
ptore is. In good, supply, hut finds apoor
market at 10 and 12 cents, the" fatter
being an extreme figure.
EGGS The market has shown consider
able weakness since Easter, and yesterday
plenty of stock was offering In single
case lots at 13 cents. Receipts are heavy,
andas the price is still a. little "too high
or cod storage purposes, a decline will
be needed in order to move' all that are
accumulating. But few wfll go into cold
storage at present prices, as they have
been very low in the .East. Demand for
shipment to outside points is light
POULTRY The market foe chickens is
perhaps a shade easier than it was- last
week, bat the difference is so slight as to
be hardly noticeable, and no difficulty Is
experienced in securing $5 .per dozen for

Speculation Much. Resembled Opera
tions of Last Week.
NEW YORK, -April 10. Speculation for
the advance was renewed in force today,
and the market resumed much the same
appearance as itriiad- during the excited
speculation of last week. London helped
to this result by some rather emphatic
advances in the international stocks be
fore the opening aere, which were, per
haps, incidental to, the fortnightly settle
ment now in progress on the London
stockexchange.
The market opened higher in a fairly j
buoyant condition, the congested buying
causing running sales of several thousand
share blocks in a number of stocks at the
opening at advances of from 1 to 2 points.
This materially higher level of prices at
tracted some.arge selling to realize, and
the tone became rather nervous for
awhile, as shqwn In the wide and frequent
fluctuations in come of the prominent
stocks. , But the speculative leaders
seemed to be again well supplied with re
sources, and they supported the market
With great confidence and manipulated
prices wlth much success. The sudden

and violent advances were well calculated
to facilitate the multitude of outside spec
ulators who were very evidently waiting
to.,come Into the market on any definite
elgns- of a further advance. .
Monday's reaction and the subsequent
recovery evidently served to convince
many persons that no lower prices were
to be expected for the present, and that
further advances might be reasonably
looked for, It -was demonstrated, In fact,
that the public is still willing and eager
to buy stocks, notwithstanding the high
level of prices, measured by the earning
power, so long as prices continue to go
up Large speculative pools, therefore,
And It woth while to support prices and
to advance, the market, even In face of
heavy t offerings, owing to the large out
side demand attracted by the advance In
prices. The'app'efir&nce 'bf -new lenders in
the money market, includlngsome of the
epeculators." interested In the rise, has
served again to defer the exhaustion ot
money resources. ' tt ' -
TheMoney Market.
But the ra,te f Or call money ran up above
Monday's high level, "to 7 per cent, be
cause of,,-"sme large financial operations,
inpludlng" another- payment -of $10,000,1)00
installment on subscriptions to -the Union
Pacific collateral bond Issue. The slight
ly firmer-ton'S' of sterling exchange this
morning Indicated that" any relaxation in
the 'rate would lift sterling back to the
gold export point. .
Money .was no higher in Xrondon today,
but payment must be made tomorrow
there of an $l,OOtf,000 installment on the
exchequer bond Issue, and Frlday-tethe
payday for the stock exchange settlement.
Some renewed pressure for gold on New
York Is. therefore, to be expected. Mean
time the Subtreasury continues to absorb
caeh, and New York exchange at Chicago
today fell to. 50 'cents discount marking
the continued demand of the. Interior on
New York for money. The advance'ln the
call loan rate helped p precipitate a live
ly realizing movement during" the last
hour, which cut into prices all around
and made the .closing 'easy. t
The Burlington deal, and thetalk of a
combination of Interests' with the smelt
ing Interests looking to control of the
gold, slaver and copper product, was the
leading Influence In the day's speculation
so far as it was due to any specific In
fluence at all. Burlington rose an extreme
64 to a new record, price, at 192, , and
Northern Pacific came within a 'small
fraction ol.nar. The whole srranirer crrouo
i was affecled In sympathy, andt the idith-
west prforred mad a notable advance of
15 points, while St Paul & Omaha rose. S
pointsj. Amalgamated Copper gained 5
or very large dealings, and Anaconda 41.
Te:3B &. Pacific was largely bought at an
advance of 2, on talk of an exchange of
souri Pacific. As an outgrowth of these
movements, the grangers and Eries were
all strong and active.

Government "Wlient Report.
WASHINGTON, April 10. The April re
port of the statistician bf the Department
of Agriculture will show, the average
condition of Winter wheat on April X to
have been 91.7, against 82.1 on April 1,
1900, 87.0 at the corresponding date in
1S99, and 82.9 the mean of the April av
erages of, the last 10 years, , . ,
The averages in he principal states are
as follows: Pennsylvania, 89j Ohio,, 33;
Michigan, 72; Indiana, S9; Illinois, 92; Tex
as, 63; Tennessee',- 81; ilissourl. 98; .Kan-;
sas, 105; Nebraska, 100; California, 100.
and Oklahoma,. 97,
While the general average of condition,
1.7, is the highest since 1891, 4;he pres-'
ence of the Hessian fly Is reported from
an almost unprecedeniedly large number 02
states, and serious misgivings prevail;
even In states reporting a falriyr high
condition on April 1, as to the possible de
velopments of the next 30 days.
The average yield of Winter rye on
April 1-was 93.1, against-84.4 on April 1,
1900; 84 9 at the corresponding date in 1899,
and 88.3 the mean of the April averages
of the last 10 years. In New York and

CHICAGO, April 10. Although the be
lief that the government report, due
after trading hours, had been discounted
by recent heavy bear selling, 'there was
a disposition td remain neutral until its
contents were made known. May wheat
opened unchanged" to c Idwer, at 70c to
69?4c, under heavy selling caused by rain
in the Southwest, where it is most need
ed. This pressure did not last long, and
In Its absence the market began a grad
ual recovery, touching 70c in the fore
noon. Driblets of long stuff came out,
and the market reacted to 70c, where it
again steadied, this time on reports of a
good export demand. Shorts bid the
market up to 70c, but an easier feeling
followed, as. only moderate cash sales
could be connpned. May declined to 70c
and closed steady c higher,-at 74
74c.
Realizing sales involving considerable
scattered lines gave the corn market a
heavy aspect at the opening. Support
from the bull following bf Phillips checked
the decline and caused slow reactions. The
close was -steady, c lower, at 43
43&c.
Oats 'were depressed. May closed c
lower, at 24c.
Provisions were easier at the opening,
but a good cash demand later caused a
recovery. May pork closed 7o higher;
lard 2c up and ribs 7c better.

The wool market Is decidedly more quiet

The Metal Market.
NEW YORK, April 10. It has been an
other day of small things In . the local
metal market. Speculative dealings were
conspicuous by their absence, "and trad
ing was confined to meeting Immediate
requirements. In tin holders reduced the
price 20 points, but even this concession
could not bring about business, as buyers
considered rates still too high. In view of
the bearish statistical position. The close
here was dull, however, with prices more
or less nominal on a basis of 526(326 30.
London quotations were marked up 5s to
115 12s 6d for spot and 113 2s Gd. but
this factor was thoroughly discounted.
Copper ruled Inactive and nominally un
changed, at 517 for lake and 516 62 for
casting. The London market was also
good at 68 12s 6d and 69 3s 3d for spot
and futures respectively.
Lead remains unchanged at 54 37.

FRESNO. Cal., April 10. The new di
rectors of the Raisin Growers' Association
have taken hold of the problem presented
by having over 1000 carloads of last year's
raisins on hand with a possible market
for only a third of the amount before the
new crop come In. Under the circum
stances, the directors have resolved to
cut the price temporarily to 3 cents a
pound for selling purposes, allowing the
retailer to sell one-pound cartons for 10
cents, with the distinct understanding
that such sales are to be solely for the
purpose of advertising California raisins.

Should Be Analyzed.
BANDON. April 8. (To the Editor.) I
would like some information in regard to
a well which I dug on my place last
Summer. There Is plenty of water In the
well, and it is clear as crystal when
first drawn, but after standing a short
time gets so roily that you can not se
the bottom of the pall. It has a reddish
look, as though it had Iron rust In It,
and a greasy scum forms over the top.
It Is hard, and has a disagreeable taste.
1 as of rusty iron or some mineral. The
! subsoil here Is blue clay. Would the
water be soft and good to drink If i
should go below the blue clay?
F. N. PERKINS.
Only a chemical analysis will show the
nature of the minerals In the water, al
though It probably contains Iron. It Is
Impossible, from the Information given,
to say what you might strike by boring
further.
Oats.
KING'S VALLEY, April 9. (To the Ed
itor.) Please inform me whether there are
32 pounds of oats in a bushel; and Is this
legal? SUBSCRIBER.
