COMMERCIAL AND
"Ftae 'Breather yesterday brought out all
bf fha farmers In this -vidnltv exeent those
J trho TPere busy at work, and the produce
receipts -trere quite neavy, hut there iras
ao change of importance In prices. EgS3
are still weak, and, in. thB absence of any
relief from outside sources. It Is feared
that further declines are certain. The but-
ter markeUs holding: fairly steady at quo
tations, but a. repetition of the slump In
esss would probably follow any attempt to
advance prices. Creamery stock is now
snovinsr at a figure which just shuts out
Eastern butter; and for this reason Puget
Sound and other outside points take the
surplus -and keep the market well cleaned
sip. An advance In prices would let in
Eastern stock and cause a demoralization
Trtiich would carry prices down to a low
level. Poultry was moving at unchanged
Quotations, but was not .cleaning up quite
as well as It usually does on Friday. Po-tatoes-came
in. quite freely, and poor stock
was slow sale. Best Burbanks unchanged.
.Receipts of Oregon strawberries were
about rthe same as on the day previous.
Tne'whe&t markets were easier.

PORTLAIVD MARKETS.
Groin, Flonr, Etc
The Eastern wheat market closed a frac
tion lower yesterday, but there was not
much change in the local situation. Ex
porters cannot pay the prices demanded
by holders, eo long as freights are held at
present figures, and while they admit that
it is impossible to buy wheat at 5S& and
69 cents, those figures are full export
values for Walla "Walla. As there are no
pressing tonnage engagements to be met,
xporters do not feel the necessity for
bidding up on wheat, and the market was
accordingly left to the millers. These
wants are also limited, and as a result
there is very little doing. Freights are
firm at 40 shillings fof new crop, with, no
demand for old-crop business.

. AEW TOSK STOCK MARKET.
Business of Small Volume and Con
fined to a Fctt Stocks.
NEW YORK, May S4f A final spurt of
activity and Btrength in the stock" mar-
FINANCIAL NEWS
ket was aH that saved the day from
being the dullest in the amount of busi
ness done since the November election.
As It was, business was" down toward
the minimum, and was besides largely
congested in a. few stocks.
The tobacco stocks, American and Con
j
tinental, were the feature of the mar
ket. The volume of business In them
grew as the advance progressed, and all
of the room traders, hungry for a stock
that would move easily, trailed on to the
movement. By bidding up prices smart
ly they ascertained that very few selling
orders for the stock were in the market
above the prevailing price level. These
technical conditions were responsible, for
the movement nt stocks so far as any
news that was published would indicate.
Something Is made of the fact that the
new tobacco 'company which Is being or
ganized has representatives in it who
organized an opposition company once
before which was absorbed In a short
time by the American company. The
bacco was S points, and for Continental
Tobacco 45i. The final streneth of the
market was due to this movement, and
tor the late accentuation of strength
shown In other stocks which had shown
3lgns of firmness and strength earlier In
the day. The weak points were also
pulled -up, so that the losses, which were
at one time very general, were either
wiped out or greatly reduced all around.
The Erles, the Wabash, Missouri Pacific
and Atchison were good points of resist
ance all day. The story persisted that ef
forts were making to secure a trunk-line
outlet for the Gould Southwestern rail
roads and Wabash; that the great trunk
line proprietors had protested against
this project, and that It has been threat
ened that Atchison would be absorbed by
the Pennsylvania In retaliation. This
story and its variations will be found
closely related to whatever strength was
shown in the day's market. The move
ment of Union Pacific was a notable in
fluence upon the whole market; its break
to S& being the -principal factor In the
early weakness of the market, and its rally
at the close largely relieving the de
pression. The forecast of a strong bank state
ment, and the fact thatno further gold
was engaged for export, were strength
ening factors. The cessation of the urg
ent demand for Northern Pacific also
relieved apprehension. The result was
an active and firm close in the market
after a day of feeble and desultory fluc
tuations. The bond market was Irregular and only
moderately active. Total sales, par
value, $4,790,000. United States new 4g, ad
vanced per cent on the last call.

says:
The Stock Exchange presented a de
serted appearnce here today, the atten
dance being nominal. In the early trading
Americans were inclined to be sloppy on
the clearing up process before the holi
days. In the afternoon there was a mild
spurt on the buying of Erles by the ar
bitrage houses. The rally, however, was
ehort-llved and the close was heavy. Ana
conda spurted to 10, with free option deal

expected yesterday, under reports of good
rains. The market was nervous .when
the session began, and July wheat opened
unchanged to a shade lower at 73c to
7373c. The crowd was mixed, and for
some little time there was no trading.
Then pit traders began work with a, view
to quick sales and small, profits, and
under this campaign the price declined
to 72c. At this point the bull leader

The corn market; was moderately active,
but had a weak undertone. Large re

The oats market was considerably "weak

emancipation of humanity from the long-drawn-out
thralldom of bigotry and su
perstition. But yesterday the man who

.' CONCERNING BERRY BOXES.
A. H. Bnckmnn Gives the Farmer's
Paint of View.
PORTLAND, Or.. May 19. (To the Ed
itorsThe strawberry box question being
again tinder consideration, allow me a
few words In reference thereto.
The proposition to require all berries to
be marketed In new boxes or- at Most the
idea of making a law to that effect seems
tO have originated with Commissioner
Bailey, and he seems to be very much
disappointed because It did not become a
law. Mr! Bailey never was a frelnd to
the farmer, at least that .was his reputa
tion, and my experience In dealing with
him. He at one time 'ran a grocery on
.Yamhill street, near Fourth, and I at
.numerous times sold him fruit of various
kinds, and of all the grocers with whom
I had to deal Mr. Bailey was the hard
est.
Of course I appreciate the fact that
many times berries are marketed In very
unsightly and even unsafe boxes; but it
Is the new box idea the proper solution
of the question?
I must admit that a box which has
been used several seasons Is quite often
almost black; that is from exposure,
which Is in a manner necessary, and from
corrosion, the tin oxidiziqg and staining
the wood: hut does the color of the box
effect the unwholesomenegs of the fruit"
It Is my experience that many times ber
ries wiil taste woody after being kept
In new boxes
It Is not necessary to discuss the cost
of Tjoxes, the "number 6f; boxes used and,
the action of the box trust, were such
law to be enacted. In my estimation the
proper mode of solving the problem Is ill
forcing the grower to market his berries
In, boxes which have been cleaned bv
scalding after each using and before using
again. Of course this would be hard to
enforce, "but a few examples by way of
fine would do a world of good.
As to the matter of pests being distrib
uted by berry boxes, that is at present
unneeded thoughtfulness, as there are no
pests which injure berries here except a
grub which works on the root, and they
can in no way be disseminated through
the mediumshlp of berry boxes, 1
