tmp "H wsw5.t .THE MORNING --OBEGONFANv- FRIDAY.. -MAY 3, -1901. 11 fiOMMERGlAL AND The market situation yesterday was de void of features of -special interest Re ceipts of produce -were liberal except from California, where the rains -were heavier than necessary for the market ing of .fruit and vegetables. The -wheat market is still showing considerable strength and Europe and the Emst both scored moderate advances. In the pro duce markets yesterday there was con tinued firmness in potatoes and onions, with eggs a shade weaker, but not quota bly lower. The price has not yet de clined to a point where there is a de mand for cold storage, and until it does, the market will remain unsteady. Butter is firm on good grades, but not so firm on ordinary stock. "Veal is weaker under heavy receipts and pork is very firm. Groceries steady with no changes in prices. Clearing: Home Statement.

San TFrancIsco was holdlrig steady with no adavnce of con sequence on account of the rain. The Portland market is steady, with no new business reported. Walla Walla Is gen erally quoted at 59& and GO cents, but farmers are not inclined to accept this figure.

Atchison find Union Pacific Wercthe Features of Strengrth. NEW TORK, May 2. The Atchison stocks took the leadership of the market away from TJnion Pacific today, both In point of; strength and activity. During most of the day the volume of transactions- in -the two- common stocks' ran a close race, but the dealings In Atchison common and preferred easily, outstripped those in the two Union Pacific -stocks.- A: crenonderance7f the total -trsnsartfnni ii the whoje. market centered hf those .stock?.-- There have been -very confident preaici LONDON. 'May 2. Atchison, S0?Cnna tlons that !e first dividend onvA-tchfson j dlan Pacific, 103; Union Pacific preferred. F4NAHG1AL NEWS for a half-year would' be 2 per cent, and it is likely that a large short interest was accumulated in 'the stock3 by "those' who had been on. .the Inside. "As a matter of, fact, the. offerings were very .moderate. The character of todays-buying, however, could by no means- safely beattributed either -to a demand 'fenm .shorts. or to purely speculative manipulation. The movement was supposed to -be due to -a new phase of the struggle among the granger trunk lines td secure for them selves" compensatory advantages to offset the 'Burlington deal. -.. Oflicials of the St. Paul road were quot ed anonymously this morning as" breath ing forth threatenings-of bulhllng-a new line to the Pacific unless" they were ac corded a share in the 'advantages of 'the supposed "Union Paclfio absorption.' This corroborates the current supposition that the great granger trunk lines 'feel them selves -at a tactical disadvantage If they have not an assured Pacific Coast ouUet as well as an Eastern trunk lineconnec tion, and that all of them will sooner dr later take measures to'secure.. these advan tages. " - The movement of prices today was cited as giving evidence that the buying "of Atchison was for the benefit of St Paul. and probably also of Rock Island.. There was a disposition to attribute the late strength of Baltimore & Ohio to pjans for making thatToad the Eastern outlet, and the late spurt in Norfolk & Western and Chesapeake & Ohio were supposed to In dicate alternative possibilities. The decla ration of,,the first dividend on Norfolk & Western of 1 per cent was, however, the more plausible explanation of the.-strength of the last-named stock. The feverish and erratic fluctuations in Union Pacific were amply explained by he new uncertainties surrounding .the present ownership of Its -control. There were various .rumors, both to the effect that the Vanderbllt Interests had perfected their control, and that the Hantaan In terests had .secured .the maintenance, of their control. Every moYemen,t in ,the; stock and every rumor regarding the control were looked, upon with suspicion! oy,.tne uneasy speculators, as a device to further the .contest, and underlying . all was their dre.ad that when once the actual control Is decided, the high prlcewil not be maintained. The extreme fange of the stock. was 6 points, and the net loss 1. Atchison advanced an .extreme 11, and came within a fraction of thebest. St. Paul is 24 higher on the day; Ches- apeake & Ohio, 3&. and 'Norfolk & West- ern, 1. The,stbcks Included in-the" Bur,-' ltngton deal,,.

The payments of the Government Interest and of theblqcks of .Government bonds re deemed, yesterday, and today," -do not fig ure yet in the statement, but It -Is evident that there must have been a very heavy movement of cash from the Interior dur ing the week to overcome these losses. The sterling exchange market had a firm undertone, and there is still a possibility of gold engagements tomqrrow for Sat urday's steamer.

In corn the tight grip of the leading bull on the May do livery" was more than eyer -apparen,t. Prices fluctuated violently within 'a range of 5c, but. actual transactions In the pit were very small. Aside from the manipulations, 'small receipts of contract grade corn and a 'report that Argentina's 'exportable suiplus thad 'been reduced' 50 per cent were .strengthening factors. The manipulation was of course most ap. parent In many, although the July 'deliv ery profited, somewhat by It and enjoyed a more general trade May opened c -to lc higher, at 50c to 51c and was bid up In c and c jumps to 55 cents.

AHECDOTES OF M'KINLEY. Mr. Hoadlcy's Pergonal" Recollec tions o the President. ..PORTLAND, May 2. (To the Editor). As I have been elbow near the man now our honored President and on his way to the metropolis of zhe-Northwest PaclflcIj, perhaps a fewwords .about him, as, ne appearpa 10 me may not oa un welcome to tne readers or xne uregon lan, I first saw William McKlnley when he put "Jr." 'to his name in honor of his sturdy father. It was at a great sol diere' meeting held at Canton, O., at which President Hayes presided. While General Garfield was speaking in the sledge-hammer way characteristic of him and using his left hand In gesticulat ing (for he was left-handed), Major Mc Klnley, then, a Representative In Con gress, came upon the platform and, al though Garfield was then a candidate for the Presidency,, he almost lost his' audi, ence, as there was so much flutter over the arrival of the noted apostle of pro tection. McKlnley then was not portly, as he Is now, and his facie was white unto paleness and smooth from" the razor he always had applied under and over his mouth. I next saw him In .New, London, O., walking between two nien' who were es corting him from the railroad station to the hall In which he made an effective speech In behalf of Foraker's candidacy for the Governorship of the state. The Major almost leaned . backward, so erect was his carriage, and If I had not known differently, the impresslonof a man un der arrest would have been left In my mind. ' I heard him again at a state encamp ment of the TJnion soldiers held at Piqua, 0.,'and the speech he made I shall hever forget. When fully awakened by the hour he turned to ex-Preldjent Hayes, sitting behind him, and addressed him as "my old Colonel," and never human, lips were more patriotic. One sentence he spoke was, "Revolutions never go back ward." I heard him again in Medina; O., and once 'more in Cleveland. The speech at Cleveland was read from manuscript, as he then was Governor of the state and a candidate for the Presidential nomina tion. As an orator, McKlnley, to me,' was far more effective than wasr,Bryan, whom I heard at Portland. He has a seriousness and a purpose and a freedom from at tempt to be smart that Bryan has not. He had "a single mannerism, In the put ting of his hand in his trousers pocket while getting started In speech. His con trol of voice was perfect, 'and, he never was hoarse whenever I heard him. But the most vivid Impression I have of McKlnley Is of being with him and several gentlemen In a hotel parlor in Mendlna, 0., for 30 minutes. . He was.run nlng for Congress in a badly gerryman dered district, and he was speaking In the different schoolhouses of our county. It was raining hard and the roads were so muddy that. if they had any bottom It was not found. The Major had on a rubber coat and his trousers were with in rubber boots. There he was before us, and we let him fire away in conversation, and the more optimistic he became upon his election, the faster he smoked his cigar. McKlnley Is as fond of "his cigars as he is of his hymnal. He smoked there in that room until the air was as blue as were we who were with the Major 'about his election. He wanted our county to give him about 300 more votes than Its maximum Republican strength. He thought the Dunkards of Holmes county, the Gibraltar of Ohio Democracy, would help him out. Speaking of Speaker Reed, who then was making campaign speeches In our state, and whom he called "Tom," he said, that his speeches never made a vote, as "Tom" was so repulsive to 'the opposition. He called President Cleve land,. "Cleveland," and Mr. Blaine, "Blaine." One of our number, with but one eye, remarked, that Senator Hill re sembled Senator Carlisle, whereupon the Major graciously shook hie Jiead. so the others could be corrected in 'the estiiriate if such were made by the one-eyed -man's remark. The Major did not contradict the man, but let us know how the matter i stood. He directed me sportively to see after the-brethren. McKlnley, to one near himri dbes'-aiot appear constructed on a massive order. nis,head la -not large, but -ot Inedlum size? The one special thing he had'was graclousness. When he went to Wash ington from Ohio many of his Ohio Downing, Hopkins & Co. -ESTABLISHED 1803. WHEAT AND STOCK BROKERS Room 4Ground Ffobf friends who thought he had been care less In some appointments while he was Governor and had not shown real execu tive ability .were anxious about his fu ture. But he has made a far better Pres ident than those friends expected. Some nf lf nnnnlntmontc wHOo "PrAslrtpnt. notably that of Root,, could hot have, been better. ,. "'I'am sure the good people of Portland will be glad to greet a President whose years of administration will form as bright pages in American history as have been written. He Is a model husband, as far from Imperialism as the,East is from the. West, and first and last Is American. Let me uncover before the gracious Wil liam! B. J. HOADLEY. AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND.

This Is better than tin because heavier, will bend sufficiently, and will hold the paint better than tin or wood. But above all, have the painting done by an honest painter who will give a good job as to quality of the paint.

Concerning "Wlfebeaters. PORTLAND. May 2. (To the Editor.) In this morning's paper you report the case of the cruel man who abused his wife and one of his children, and wh& was fined ?50 by Judge Cameron. The" in justice of fining a man for such an. of fense Is that the fine comes out of the family earnings and funds, and Is really paid," In part, by the wronged wife and the helpless children. You say the wife has the appearance of a hard-working woman, and no doubt she Is an important agency In securing family sustenance quite as Important as the husband him self yet she has to endure the suffering and humiliation of a beating, and then pay, half the fine. The ?50 paid by the husband, and which she helped to earn (possibly more than half of it)', takes clothes off of her back and food out of the mpuths of her children. The law that permits s'uch a wrong is Itself wrong, and ought to be amended. What ought to be done in such a case Is that the offend ing father should be placed In a public workhouse and kept there, until he had earned the amount of a reasonable fine, which amount should be turned over to his wronged wife and children. Such a pen alty as that would fall on the offender alone, while It would aid and shield the Innocent. L. W. M. , No Substitute for the Saloon. ' Chicago Record-Herald. As "a matter of fact, there is no substi tute for the saloon, because there is no substitute for alcoholic stimulation. Men-drink for the feeling of mental ela tion and satisfaction that It gives, not for social enjoyment. Divest a saloon of every possible social facility or appurte nance and men will still patronize It. The only "substitutes" worthy of serious con sideration which may mitigate the evils of the saloon are substitutes for the modern conditions of existence, which are so strenuous and exacting upon, some men ass.to induce a .craving (or the, highest .stimulation, and which in others are so devoid; of, pleasure anq nope as to cause them, to seek solace and happlness.in.the cup. , BUSINESS ITEMS.
