TIIK MOHNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, APKIL 17,- I90
V
COMMERCIAL AND
Wholesale markets "were quiet yester
day, although In purchase there was some
activity. Induced by arrival of the Cali
fornia, steamer with supplies of vegeta
bles. The receipts were In prime condi
tion and made up a large cargo. Demand
"was strong and .most of the produce was
out of the way by evening.
The low notch seems to have been
reached in eggs. Receipts have fallen off
and prices have stiffened. Several
shrewd dealers who analyzed the market
correctly and bought largely for storage
"When prices were at minimum, are cred
ited with considerable sagacity by com
petitors who were waiting for a lower
market.
Butter Is still very sluggish. Califor
nia imports have almost if not entirely
ceased, and this seems to be the only
source of satisfaction in the situation.
Prices are steady. Poultry Is depressed
ly larger receipts and weaker demand.
Cheese is stronger.
Onions are still steady and potatoes
remain firm. Several thousand sacks of
xhe latter will be shipped to San Fran
cisco m this week. Receipts have been
light for the past week.

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain. Flour, Etc
The wheat market in the East showed
a little more life yesterday, and Europe
failed to exhibit any weakness In spite
of the bearish statistics of the previous
day. In the Portland market the ruling
quotation was about 57 cents, although
some of the dealers were not Inclined to
go above 56& cents, for "Walla "Walla.
Slucstem was nominally two cents
higher. There is very little wheat sell
ing at these figures and it would require
higher prices to move very much of the
cereal if there was any tonnage engage
ments to be met Freights are easy with
no new transactions reported.

JVEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Relapses F"rom Previous Day's Ma
nipulations Cuused Uneasiness.
NEW YORK, April 16. The stock mar
ket gave evidence today that speculation
still retains abundant vitality, but never
theless speculation was exceedingly fever
ish and at times very nervous. An op
T1MG1AL NEWS
portunity was given during the room
ing to see the unwisdom of the speculative
leaders in having attempted, to substitute
low-grade industrial stocks for the higher
grade Issues as the leaders of the mar
ket. The violent relapses from yester
day's manipulated advances In some of
these stocks caused considerable disorder
in the market during the early trading.
The decided weakness of the United
States Steel stocks on account of the. re
ported threat of the president of the
Amalgamated Association to precipitate a
strike, had an unsettling effect all
through the industrial list It was proved
once again that the industrial stocks are
Influenced by such a variety of causes and
conditions that It is hopeless to induce
any uniform movement in all of them. A
number of the high-priced Industrials con
tinued to show some strength, notably
Sugar and Amalgamated Copper. The
dealings in the latter stock were on an
enormous scale and then price rnove
ment violent and erratic.
After the opening bulge realizing car
ried the price half a p'olnt below last
night Later In the day,, after the publi
cation, ot -the proposition for the absorp
tion of Butte & Boston and Boston &
Montana; the tock was nim up. 4 from
the lowest to 12S. The last price, was
125. a net gain of only . ' The general
market proved rather indifferent to the
movement of the specialties, and there
was a general declining tendency. Rock
Island especially falling 39. under" last
nln-ht. -and a lanre number of 'promi
nent railroad stocks from 1 to 2 points J
"With the revival of rumors that tbe Bur
lington plan of merger would certainly, be
published tomorrow, that stock, Northern
Pacific and the Erles, became extraordi
narily buoyant again, and there was a
sympathetic recovery In the general mar
ket The Kansas &- Texas stocks -were
another center of strength. In this
movement Burlington" touched" 195, a re
covery from the Jowest of 7, and North
ern Pacific selling, ex. dividend of J. -per
centv rose by violent -advances to 105,
an extreme advance of 7?. The Erie
stocks rose from 2 to 3 ' points. The
prices of all these stocks except Erie sec
ond preferred .made new high records to
day. Notwithstanding the sympathetic
recoveries In the general market. It will
be seen that the day's net changes are
as a rule of Insignificant dimensions.
The Money Market.
The sralns by" the banks from the sub
treasury, owing o the high level of pen
sion payments and the buying of bonds
by the Secretary of- the Treasury, afforded
unquestioned relief to the money market
The rise In Chicago exchange to 10c pre
mium also reflects the turning point In
the interior currency movement In favor
of New York. But the significant fact
In the day's money situation was the
quick response of the sterling exchange
market to the easier money conditions
here, giving grounds for the conjecture
that any Increase in the available supply
of funds In New York will go to London
for the purpose of the coming issue of
consols.
It Is important to remember that this
government loan, which Is estimated at
5250,000.000 as a minimum, Is In excess of
any loan placed since the French Indem
nity" to Germans'. The London money
market is at present not only heavily In
debted to the Bank of England, but the
amount of French and American capital
at Interest in London Is of unprecedented
volume. London's solicitude over the for
eign exchange Is thus easily explicable.
The constantgrowth of the trade balance
Indicates little increase of this country's
capital resources for Investment But it
Is obvious that the placing of the invest
ment Is purely a question of relative In
terest rates. The extraordinary financial
operations In progress In New York were
again reflected today fn the clearing
house exchanges, which reached the as
tonishing aggregate of $445,241,223 com
pared with the previous record of dally
clearlners of "S437.852.9S0 on one day of last
week. Operations In connection with the
UnlteO" states steer company s ijnances
are supposed to "account for these figures.
The bond market "became irregular to
day, on realizing In speculative Issues.
Total sales,, par value, 55,200,000. United
States refundlngs 2s declined , and the
new 4s advanced per cent on the last
call.

NEW YORK, April J6,-The Commercial
Advertiser's- .London financial cablegram
says:
"Trading on the stock oxchange today
was narrow, and the tone was weak, un
der the shadow of the impending budget
American ehares were stagnant, dragging
down to the very close of the day. There
was some talk of active money In New
York and "of the threatened steel strike.
The shares of the United States Corpo
ration relapsed 2 points to 47 on the icar
of trouble,
"New 'York bought copper shares by
cable. This was before the New York
opening, and Wall etreet representatives
were paying freely for calls on Anaconda,
for the end of May and for the end
of June, but this stock relapsed later,
with the rest of the American list, and
with Tintos, which went off on London
selling. The fortnightly statistics In cop
per showed" a decrease'of 629 tons In stocks
and 954 tons" in supplies. It Js rumored
that"" the Amalgamated Company "ab
sorbing Avlno. " Mexican ralla were per
suing the same "upward course that they
took yesterday.
The bank has 'bought 74,000 of gold in
bars, and 500,000 were shipped from Cal

Chicago Grain and Provisions.
CHICAGO, April 16. During the first
two hours the wheat market looked
strong. Liverpool showed appreciation of
the advance here yesterday, and with this
in mind, opening bids were from (&c
improved for May,r which changed hands
at from 7071c. 'Bears "hazarded small
lots and forced the market to 70c a few
minutes later. The strength of the coarser
grades made Itself felt at this juncture,
however, and the bears ceased their op
erations and covered later as added In
centives for doing so were felt
Among' these bullish items were o re
port from Oklahoma that the crop of that
territory had been damaged 25 per cent
by fly, liberal seaboard clearances, a
heavy visible decrease and a prediction
of frost for Kansas. May rallied and ad
vanced slowly to 71c during the forenoon.
The market was not strong on the bulge,
however, and when longs attempted to
secure profits, the price dropped sharply
to 7070c. The close, a moment later,
found May 4c under yesterday, at 70c.
Moderate activity and a considerable de
gree of strength, due to unfavorable seed
ing weather, characterized the corn mar
ket. May closed c higher, at 44c.
Oats were active and strong. May
closed c higher, at 25c.
Provisions were quiet and easier, In
fluenced by increasing hog receipts and-
lower prices for them. July pork closed
10c lower, lard 12c down and ribs 20o
depressed.

Chicago Grain Gossip. "
F. G.' Logan's grain letter to. R. W.
McKlnnon & Co.. says: . .
Liverpool was d higher. There was a-
further effort .this morning, to advance,
the price by local buying; and considera
ble Inclination early, to cover shorts on
fears of frost In tho Southwest tonight.
Efforts to realize at the advance, how
ever, found the market without adequate
support, and the price rapidly declined a
cent a bushel. Sy"e still see. nothing de
cidedly bullish In the situation In wheat
There Is still considerable1 May wheat
held by scattered .holders, elevator, peo
ple ore pot changing to any considerable
extent, and we are Inclined to think that
the carrying charges into July will In
crease. "

"A WEAK BODY"
Says Dr. Bennett, the Electrical Au
thority, "A Clouded Intellect and a
Vigrorless System Indicate the
Weak Mun or Woman" Such Per
sons Are Totally Unfit to Occupy
Their Proper Sphere in Life They
Cannot Succeed Because Their Am
bition, Energy and Nerve Force
Have Forsaken Them The Doctor
Guarantees Ills Electric Belt to
Cure Every Form of "Weakness In
Either Sex If It Falls It Does Not
Cost Yon a Cent Get the Doctor's
Book on Electricity It Is Free and
Will Interest You.
How can .a Weak man succeed In this
on-rushlng time of advanced civilization?
rie has no ambition,
no energy. The Nerve
Weakness Is drawing
the very Life itself
from his frame. He
has no nerver no con
fidence. His humiliat
ing position in the so
cial life of his fellow
men Is doubly real
istic to him. I tell
you, and I am hon
est with you, that
there is not a drug
known to science
which will have the
least effect upon these
Weaknesses. Nature
neverlntended a man's
stomach as a recepta
cle for strong drugs;
If you persist In their
use. you will totally
destroy your stomach.
ELECTRICITY, When
the right current Is
applied In the right
manner. will cure
every phase or guise of
Weakness in either
sex. When you are
Weak, Nervous and Vlgorless, when you
have not that Vitality which makes MEN,
the Electricity Is fast dying out of your
system, and .before you can become a
BETTER MAN you must have It supplied.
I have Invented a method of applying
Electricity which will not fall.
Llfo means two things to you: Health, hap
piness and success; or shattered health,
gloomy thoughts, despondency and a humili
ating -conscience of weakness, which Is a bar
rier to succesH. To which class do you be
long? If to the latter. I offer you a good,
sound, robust health and vitality. My Etectrlc
Belt will cure you. Tou take no chances r the
cure Is guaranteed. If my Electric Belt fails
to cure you (which 13 not at alt likely), It
shall not cost you a cent. Could any offer be
fairer than thU? It should give you hope.
If ou have an old-style belt which
burns and blisters, or which srives
no current, or which Is burned out
and cannot be renewed, send It to
me as half-payment of one of mine.
Head my hook on electricity. Free
to every one.
Dr. Bennett's Electric Belt
Is no experiment. It Is the result of years of
study upon my part. You must not confound
It with tho many so-called electric belts now
being ofTered the public. There are no elec
tric, belts "Just as good" is mine, for there
are none like it. It has soft, silken, chamols
coered sponge electrodes, which do not burn
and blister as do the bare metal electrodes
used on other makes of belts. My Belt can be
renewed when burned out for only 73c; when
others burn out they are worthless. Abso
lutely guaranteed to cure Varicocele and all
Weaknesses In either sex; restore Lost Vigor
and Vitality, check Losses, cure Rheumatism
In ciery form. Kidney, 1.1'er and Bladder
Troubles. Constipation. Stomach Disorders.
Lame Back, all Female complaints, etc. Jiy
New Electrical Suspensory for the perfect cum
of all Weaknesses of men free to
ati mate pa
tients.
Write todav. I want to give or send my
book. "The Flndlns of the Fountain of Eter
nal Youth," to every one, because every one
should read It. Advice without cost. Sold
