The strength In California Is well sus
tained, and seems to be due to actual de
anand. rather than to speculative manip
ulation. All dealers express confidence
In the stable character of && existing
market. Receipts continue "surprisingly
large In. view -of the fact thafjhe country
to regarded as well cleaned up oLthe prod
uct All offerings are bought ..up readily
for shipment to California. Onions are
scant, although there are several large
foldings in the country, kept back for
Mgher market. Nothing was doing in
this product yesterday, because there was
nothing U cell. The first shipment of
new California onions will arrive today,
and from now on wjll tend to bring prices
down.
.Eggs refused to move at 15c, and deal
ers have dropped back to 1414"c. These
aire regarded as the natural figures at
present. It "was desired to lift prices
above the present level, for current quo
tations allow slight. If any, profit to re
tailers, but the market failed to respond
higher. Quoted prices are firm. Recent
Strength caused country dealers to hold
' supplies, but since the present market has
come to be regarded stable, receipts have
enlarged, and checked the advancing ten
dency. Cold storage is about finished,
and now dealers are considering whether
the market -will clear Itself as readily as
when part of the receipte were being put
away.
Quoted butter prices keep that product
moving In a satisfactory manner, and the
'market has acquired steadiness. Second
grade also is gradually recovering, with
the aid of California orders. The sea
son of Winter storing is approaching, and
some Is already being put away. Poultry
Is still slow, young chickens being the
only kind in demand.
California produce by eteamer will be
on hand today at usual prices. Domestic
vegetables are gradually taking the place
of Imported, Rhubarb and asparagus are
In full quantity, besides lettuce, radishes,
onions, etc. Ripe bananas have been
scant this week, owing to greenness of
last receipts.

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain, Flour, Etc
The wheat market struck another soft
soot yesterday, and fell away quite ma
terially at the opening, but recovered-
some of the lost strength in the East be
fore the cloee. California received an
other soaking rain, and there was more
-weakness in that quarter than elsewhere.
In the local market, there was more of a
sympathetic feeling with other markets,
and as buyers had taken on about all
the high-priced wheat they wanted last
week, moet of them shortened up their
limits to E9c and 59c for Walla Walla.
There is nothing offering at these prices,
however, and the business is at a stand
still for the present. Shipments for April
were the largest on record for a corre
ponding month, and there is consider
able wheat still held on spot.

NEW YORK STOCK 3IARKET.
Aggregate Sales Wore 3,022,100
Shares A New Record.
NEW YORK, April 30. The aggregate
sales of all stocks today went ahead of
yesterday's hitherto unprecedented total,
rising to, 3,022.100 shares. Last Wednes
day's record sales of a single stock were
662,000 shares of Union Pacific, compared
with today's sales of 459,100 of United
States Steel. The aggregate sales of both
the common and preferred stock of United
States Steel amounted today to 648,000
shares.
Another record was clipped today for a
single hours business, sales for the first
hour amounting to over 1,000,000 shares,
against the previous maximum of less
than S00.O00 shares. It Is the usual rule
that a large portion of a day's business
on the exchange- Is. done during the first
hour, but had the acltvlty of the market
for the rest of the day continued in nor
mal proportion to the first hour's busi
ness the total for the day would have
reached probably 4.000,000 shares, which
would mean commissions to stock ex
change members for the day's business of
$1,000,000. Such statistics1 as these convey
the truest Idea of the dimensions and
scope of the present market. Any at
tempt at description would resolve Itself
largely Into an accumulation of superla
tives. There were long strings of suc
cessive transactions in some of the most
active stocks today. In which none of
the sales reported were of less than 100
shares, and running from that up to 10
000 shares.
If any ordinary considerations could be
the rule in such a market, the fact that
the stocks were notably strong yesterday
and were today sold in enormous volume
to take profits, would have had great In
fluence. The sharp break at many points
In the closing dealings would have been
another factor making for hesitation, but
these usual symptoms of a coming reac
tion have been so often without the
slightest effect in the recent extraordinary
market that they were totally ignored by
the excited speculators, as many other
Incidents have been, such as the engage- I
me II IS OI gum lor fApuil unit uui-aaiuuai
hardening of the money market. The
presence In great force of a widespread
public Interest in the market must ex
plain this ignoring of usual technical In
dications. The great accumulations of
wealth which have come to the hands of
the American people for several years
past and which have lain In deposit banks
waiting for opportunity for outlay seemed
to be pouring Into Wall street, attracted
by the sudden great fortunes which are
being made from day to day In the great
price movement of different .stocks.
The large inflow of money from the
Interior of New York seems to be. due
to this tendency, "and Is keeping the
money market easy in spite of the de
mand from other sources. There is very
little in the way of specific news accom
panying the movement of prices. The
announcement this morning of the ab
sorption of the Leyland steamship line by
J. P. Morgan had a tendency to give a re
newed stimulus to the speculation, as In
dicating the continued activity of the
most Influential individual In the recent
great movements toward consolidation.
The belief in wholesale consolidation of
great railroad systems, even at the enor
mous expense Involved in the buying of
control In the open market, Is the potent
factor In the general speculation. The
enthusiastic believers In an Indefinite rise
In prices argue that a market turn-over
within a few days of as many shares of
a corporation as the whole outstanding
capital necessarily Indicates a movement
to buy control, but It Is certainly obvi
ous that a turn-over of that amount of
stock where the actual control does not
pass is proof positive of an enormous
amount of purely speculative buying. It
may be due to buying and selling and
then rebuylng many times over of spec
ulative holdings", or It may be due to per
sistent short selling on every advance
and then buying to cover as the further
advance Imperils the position of the bears.
That purely speculative .transactions
formed a-Jarge factor. In the day's mar
ket's is .probably not seriously doubted.
An analysis In detail of today's market
would be futile, so great Is its extent and
variety and in the later dealfngs Its ir
regularity. Northern Pacific' was under
pressure of. profit-taking all day, and
Union Pacific a'nd the grangers generally
showed Its influence as the day pro
gressed. The Atchlsons we're the new
strong feature, on talk of an Increase In
the dividend. The advance .In New .York
Central brought speculative attention
back to the Eastern railroads, but their
gains did not hold well. The United
States Steel stocks were comparatively
well maintained, closing with net gains
of 2& for the common and 2 for the pre
ferred, at reactions 1 and respectively
from the best prices. The heavy profit
taking at the last made the closing irreg
ular. Business was not as large rlatelvly In
bonds, and the price movement was Ir
regular. Total sales, par value, $6,245,000.
United States new 4s advanced per cent
on the last call.

CROPS IN GOOD CONDITION.
Frosta Will Make Strawberries Late
This Season. '
Summarizing crop conditions In Oregon
last week, the crop bulletin of the
Weather Bureau says:
"The first part of the week was cool,
with several frosty mornings. A change
to warmer occurred Saturday, and since
then mild temperatures have prevailed
in all parts of the State. Light showers
have. frequently occurred In Western and
Southern, Oregon. ,and Sunday and Mon
day were showery days In Eastern1 Oregon,
with the Indications favorable for more
rain Tuesday in that section. The max
imum, or day, temperatures InV(esJern
Oregon ranged -'between'1' 59 degrees and
66 degrees', andt,the minimum, or .'night,
temperatures between 32 degrees' and 48
degrees'. ji Eastern Oregpn the day tem
pera tutf'eV ranged 'between 4S degrees and
68 degrees.-.and the jilght'temperatures be
tween 30 degrees and 54 degrees.
"Fall, wheat, rye and oats are doing
nicely, although' on account of the cool
weather they are making a slow growth.
Spring wheat seeding Is nearly finished
and the grain Is germinating well. The
color of the grain Is Improving every
day, and no insect pests are damaging It.
"Hops are coming up even, and there Is
no complaint about missing hills, as was
the case last year. The training of the
vines Is beginning to be general.
"A great deal of Summer fallowing has
been done. In the Eastern part of the
State, and the soil yet tills well, although
more rain would be beneficial.
'"Potato planting is now general and
corn planting has begun in the Southern
portion of the State.
"Gardens continue backward, but other
wise they are in promising condition.
"Clover and alfalfa are growing nicely,
but there ls-a-shortage and pasturage
and stock Is not Improving as fast as
usual. In the dairy sections of the State
considerable feeding-has to be done to
avpld a shrinkage In supply of milk.
"Reports of damage to the fruit crops
by frost aTe numerous, but not general.
Considerable strawberry bloom has been
killed in Southern Oregon and in the Hood
River -Valley. This damage will not mate
rially reduce yields, but will make the
marketing of the crop a -week or two
later than usual. Besides the-'fitrawberrles,
peachesr apricots; pears, silver prunes
and cherries have suffered the most from
frosta, The Italian or Fellenberg prunes
are nearly through blooming, and the
young fruit has set well and gives prom
ise of abundant yields. Apples In most
places are now In full bloom and as yet
they have suffered no harm from frosts."
TO DEVELOP INLAND EMPIRE
Plan for Federation of Commercial
Organizations.
Lewlston Tribune.
' In an Interview with the Tribune yes.ter
aay. President v LIbby, of the. Lewlston
Commercial 'Club, explained Jils plan for a
federation of the chambers of commerce
,and 'commercial clubs of the Inland Em

governing board of the Lewlston Club
Mr. Llbby said: ' " .
"The object of such a federation would
be to secure united and 'therefore more
Influential action in favor of any move

decided upon. It Is self-eYldent that a

He needs, their own work In and for this
district should be more effective asd more
rapid In consummation. p
"Among the things of common gdod
which could be most benefited by such
co-operation would be, for example: '
"(1) The movement for the opening of
the rivers to navigation with Its numer
ous, varied .and constant efforts and" meth
ods necessary to be employed In So great
an undertaking.
"(2) Presentation of the numberless op
portunities and Varied resources of the
Inland Empire as a whole, to the people
of the Middle and Eastern states. No lo
cality is satisfactory to all or even a large
proportion of the homeseekers "and In
vestors in farming, live stock, orcharding,
manufacturing, lumbering and mining.
Yet the various sections taken together
offer every'klnd and variety of Industry,
business and pursuit that men of the
temperate zone know and want to engage
lrr. A booklet presenting the merit's of all
parts under one cover, duly classified,
would save great expense to 'all parties
and Insure direction and deflnlteness to
the 'efforts of -the home and Investment
seekers, both before and after arrival up
on the ground.
"(3) Promotion and direction of the im
migration movement. Notice the great
good of co-operation In this work" during
the "past 60 days, though begun after the
movement, had started. This experience
has taught us how to do much better in
future.
"(4) Negotiations with the railroads for
Improved transportation facilities. I have
always found the railroad officials
to"- be Interested In discussion for
such Improvements, and favorable
to action when proposed changes
were conclusively shown to be for the
actual benefit of the districts served.
United action by a large and Influential
section of the comnfunlty has moreover,
a most persuasive effect upon any high
official possessed of big enough brain to
fill his position.
"(5) Government surveys. Investigations
and reports upon the resources of the
country, and ,so on."
