Eggs are gathering weakness and a decline would not surprise dealers. Stocks were quite heavy yesterday for the beginning of the week, considerable quantities having been carried over from Saturday. Creamery but ter is still dull, due to large production, ana store grade Is steady. Cheese is weak. Poultry had the usually small Monday demqnd, but stocks went oft fairly well. The time is out of Joint for an active oat market and It Is difficult to get correct quotations owing to the absence of business. The cereal is very weak, and new product is available at prices near the $1 mark. Barley is correspondingly weak. "Watermelons -and canteloupcs were lower, also raspberries, blackberries and tomatoes. Prices of lemons are going up and the fruit is scarce. Plums and pears are In full sup ply and Oregon apples are In market. Po tatoes are getting moro plentiful, but prices arc steady. Bank Clenrinpr. .Exchanges.

The local wheat market was in a measure undisturbed by the general weakness In the other wheat markets yesterday, and, while there was no business doing, there was alsu but little Inclination to shade the nominal quotations which ruled last week. Farmers are too busy with harestlng work to pay much attention to the markets, and are not inclined to accept present prices. New wheat is still coming In quite freely up the coun try, and several cars of. it have already reached Portland. The ships In the harbor are all receiving good dispatch, and then, will still be some old wheat on hand when they are finished. Freights are easier, no one caring to charter ships with the market In its present condition. Wheat WiHa Walla, nominal. r538c per bushel; bluestem, 57c; Valley, nominal.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. Slight Spurt nt tlie Openlnpr, Fol lorvcil by Extensive Liquidation. NEW YORK. July 29. The way the stock market acted this morning served to dash tho hopes of the bulls amongst the traders who had indulged a hope that some acces sion of speculative interest would result from the favoring factors over Sunday. For two Mondays past, the market has had to face an accumulation of discouraging factors, which resulted in selling down prices within tho first hour of trading to what proved to be tht lowest point of the week. This morning, in contrast, there was the news of rains in the corn belt, about which there was no dis pute, for the first time, as to their extent and beneficial character. There was, besides the news of negotiations and consultations be tween the representatives of the United States Steel Corporation and the Amalgamated Association looking to the settlement of the strike. Tho opening of negotiations leaves strong hope or an early settlement. The simultaneous sales of United States Steel at the opening were of 35,000 shares at ac extreme advance of two points and a largo number of the stocks thus benefited wero Nor folk & Western, Chesapeake & Ohio, Penn sylvania, Baltimore & Ohlot New York Cen- FINANCIAL NEWS tral, several of the coalers, the Chicago & Al ton stocks. Hocking Valley, a number of the Southern and Southwestern Railroad stocks, Colorado Fuel, American Tobacco and Uorth American. As advice for Interest In the mar ket this was a failure. The opening rush to buy was all that brought tho day's dealings above the level of activity prevailing during the latter part of last week. When the room traders attempted to take their profits at the end of the day, prices crumbled away ana only a few stocks had anything left to show but fractional net gains at the closing, which waB dull and heavy. The bond market was dull and Irregular, but rather more dlversable than last week. Total sales, par value, $1,415,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. BONDS. U.

In corn there wa& but one consideration rain. After weeks of contemplation of a sizzling hot weather map, unrelieved by rain from one week's end to another, traders came Into the pit believ ing that a fair part of the crop mlghf- be saved and proceeded immediately to unload their holdings with the result that September was quoted simultaneously from 52c to 54c, or IXc to 3c under Saturday's closing price. Liquidation was continued with considerable activity to nocn, when thero was a percep tible decrease in the volume of offerings. The price was kept well under 53c throughout the session, although there was a fair amount of covering by traders who had had the cour age to sell short when prices were at their best. During the afternoon September waB fried to 52c and although there was a sharp rally to D2c, the close found the mar ket weak and nervous, Septemoer at 52c, a net loss for the day of 22c. A potent combination was worked to lower wheat values, and prices nearly all day wero close to tho bottom level. The corn break was, of course, the chief factor, but weak cables and bearish statistics formed an array which was almost equally weakening. Septem ber opened c to lc lower, at 09c to GSc. Liquidation continued until the market touched 67c. This was near the end of the session. Reports of export buying and an allegation that hall and ralo had Injured the Northwest ern crop created sufficient apprehension among shorts, whose numbers had been greatly aug mented during the day, to cause covering, un der which September rallied to 67c. The close was weak, 2c under Saturday, at 07c In the oats pit country selling was on u heavy scale, the influence being, the corn weakness. September clo?cd weak. llc lower, at 32c. Provisions were neglected, and fluctuations were narrow. September pork closed 6c high er, lurd a shade lower, and ribs, unchanged. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Opening. Highest.

STORM CENTER OF ORIENT Trusted American Asent Says, If There la One, It Is Corea. NEW YORK, , July 23., .iijpecial, to the Tribune vXro.m 'Washlngld!says:, The Governinent at Washington has come into possession of Important views on the sweeping developments now oc curring in the Orient, as entertained by one of its most trusted agents at pres ent In China an official who has spent much of the last 2b years there and in Corea and Japan. From this confidential communication the Tribune Is enabled to make the following verbal extracts: "Corea is the storm center. If there Is one, just now. The government of the Emperor is a greedy, cruel ..and rapacious personal despotism. Eussla Is play ing with the territory as a cat with a mouse. She Is perfecting her railway system In Siberia and Manchuria, and when ehe is ready she will come down through the Corean peninsula and plant her military and commercial establish ments in the magnificent harbor of Masanpo, on the southeast, whence she can descend upon Japan, and which Ilea between the British Interests on the north and their base at Hong Kong. To this end Russia seeks to control or build and control a railway, from the north western frontier of Corea near Mukden to Masanpo, but her agreement with Ja pan forbids her seeking such concessions in Corea, and therefore France steps In to.her aid "The effort to displace J. McLeavy Brown, though made on a elde Issue, to' which he lent himself with absurd stu pidity, was for the purpose of getting the pledge of. the customs revenue for the loan. For the purpose of protecting her credit. Corea placed her customs un der the control of a foreigner as com missioner, and without his consent it can not be pledged. Mr. Brown "was 'dis missed for refusing to vacate some pub lic offices, but, under .pressure, was re instated. The matter Is In abeyance for the moment. Russia views the opposi tion with tolerant amusement and will win. "When the real purport of the Brown Incident became apparent, Japan was much alarmed, and with godd reason. Her finances could not stand the stress of her armament, and the Cabinet has gone to pieces on the financial Issue. A feeble, stop-gap Ministry can hardly be said to be In power, and the country s drifting, possibly, lntb war with Russia, like a rudderless junk. Whatever tem porary success Japan may have If she goes to war with Russia, It will Insure her having to fight for her very exist ence In her own islands, and that before many years. "Great Britain could not stop Russia if she would, and If she could, she would not, for 'she does not care to acpelerate the Russian advance to the head of the Persian Gulf, which already thrpatens In dia, The Russians hold the great port of New Chwang, without there being anywhere visible or in effect a single shred or pretense of Chinese authority, and an official tells me he was astonished to see armed Russian soldiers quietly allowed to overhaul the British steamer, on board of which he was traveling. New Chwang, mind you, was an open treaty port. "Germany Is as powerless as Great Britain, and. in fact, from her position be tween the French hammer and the Rus sian anvil, she takes no initiative at Pe kln, where Russia Is concerned. France's fear and hatred of Germany are strong motives for the solidarity of the Russian French policy." GOVERNMENTAL RIVER WORK Scientific Examination of the Coun try's "Water Resources. WASHINGTON, July 24.-It Is not gen erally known that the Government, through the United States Geological Sur vey, has been making a careful study of the rivers and underground water supply of the country. So Important has this work become, and so helpful to many Widely diversified interests, that a spe cial branch, known as the Division ot Hydrography, has been organized to con duct it. This division has been In exist ence since 18S8, and Is pushing Its inves tigations as rapidly as the appropriations will admit. Broadly speaking, Its work consists of a careful inspection of the habits and behavior of rivers, 1. e., the variation of the amount of their flow throughout the year and from year to year. This .entails a study 01 tneir drain age basins "and an accurate .measurement of their discharge. The knowledge thus obtained is the necessary foundation on which all enterprises contemplating the use of rivers must depend. In the East many rivers, valuable as a source of water supply, are under exam ination. In the West they are being meas ured for these purposes also and for Ir rigation. The very Important matter of river pollution Is one which demands the same initial Investigations, and the Gov ernment Is rendering its assistance to check and avert this growing evil. Out on tho great plains, where the rivers are few and tho rainfall is Hglt, the under ground W9II waters, so necessary to, the inhabitants, are mapped and thus mado available. A number of states In different parts of the country have seen the value of this work and have made appropriations to have it cohtlnued within their own bor ders mora rapidly and fully than the Government alone could afford to conduct it. The country's water resources, which are among the greatest It possesses, are practically inexhaustible, and have but just begun tobe developed. To Make Sure Against StaiuRgrllnfir.
