THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, 'AUGUST 13, 1901. ir COMMERCIAL AND California produce camo In by the tralnload yesterday, and it woe supplemented by some liberal receipts from Northwestern points. Wa termelons were easily In the lead In numbers, there being three -Carloads of this hot-weather luxury. There was another three carloads of cantaloupes, peaches, plums and mixed fruit, and a lot of onions and other vegetables. Th truck all found a ready market, buyers taking up the stuff as quick as It reached the street. The egg market braced up a little on an out side demand and easier receipts, but prices Ehow no Improvement. Butter is steady, but no higher. Poultry cleaned up thoroughly on Saturday, and thero was nothing on the street yesterday. The Eastern wheat markets -were booming, and part of the strength was wafted to the Pacific Coast, although Liverpool was slow in responding -with the cargo market. Clearing: House Statement.

The Eastern wheat market was on the boom yesterday, and Liverpool futures -were also higher. Cargoes remained practically un changed, however, ml there was accordingly but little change j. the local market. Very little wheat Is offering, and as there is no anxiety on the part of either buyers or sellers, the usual quotations are not crowded much above the export value. At the same time better than 57c has been paid for Walla Wal la, although that figure is fully a cent above the usual quotations given out as the export value. Freights continue very firm, and even the depressing situation in San Francisco does not weaken matters any in this port. The market seems to have a good healthy under tone, but there is not much disposition to at tempt business until harvest is nearer com pletion. Oats and barley are in much the same condition as wheat, so far as business Is concerned, and are in worse shape from a price standpoint, there being an enormous crop, and but little demand.

Railroad Securities Were Depressed lijr the Governhtcjit Crop Report, NEW YORK, Aug. 12. The Government crop rerort had a depressing effect on railroad stocks at the opening, and some sharp de clines were made, particularly in Rock Island, Missouri Pacific Union Pacific and Atchison. The selling continued pretty general through out the first hour, traders offering stocks down more confidently when grain prices rose strong ly. Trading then lapsed into semi-stagnation. but fluctuations -were unimportant until near the close, when the shorts bought all around and lifted prices substantially above Satur day's closing price. This movement was not sufficiently explained, but there was a vague report current that the steel strike was set tled. Large dealings were made in the United States Steel stocks, at the opening, the first transaction in the common being 8000 shares at from 420 124. The fact, that the strike or der was sot obeyed in some districts aroused a. better feeling toward the stock, and it was In pretty fair demand throughout the day. Sinai prices- for the common and preferred' FINANCIAL NEWS were the best, and indicated net gains respec tively of 102 points. Free selling of Sugar attracted some atten tion, the price dropping 4 points. A report was circulated that the president of the com pany was seriously 111, and professionals wcro also inclined to put out short lines on tho strength of tho forthcoming opposition plant. The stock recovered 2 points when the Illness of Mr. Havemeyer was denied. People's Gas showed no trace of Its recent liquidation, and moved strongly upwards, ending 2 point higher. Western Union was unusually prom inent in the late dealings, and improved ma terially. The late -upward movement In the railroad list carried a number of stocks up from 102H above the early low prices, with the improvement much pronounced In Mis souri Pacific Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, St. Paul and Atchison. Tho closing was fair ly active and strong. The bond market was quiet today, but few changes of importance being made. Total sales, $1,115,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.

President Kruger is reported as being In a comatose condition. American stocks hesitated at the start on the disappointing crop reports. New Yoix sent In the morning heavy selling orders, par ticularly In the Atchlsons and Union Pacifies. London regarded this as a ruse by Wall street intended to cauie a panic over here but spec ulation was so small that the effect was mere ly nominal. The market was at first idle, and then New York sent prices half an hour late. The steel stocks led In a Bharp rally and on the announcement that the strikers' movement lacks cohesion the market hardened quietly to the finish. Stocks in London. LONDON. Aug. 12.

The decline In Spring wheat condition of 15 points since July 1, and the heavy disaster to the corn crop. In addi tion to higher cables, caused wheat to open active and higher. Tho unexpectedly largo loss in the Spring wheat crop started shorts to covering, and there was fair investment buying. September opened lc higher, at 730 74c Later In the session the price advanced to 74c, due to heavy advances In corn, apd the unexpectedly large decrease In the visible supply, which amounted to 2; 250, 000 bushels. The close was firm and 203c higher, at 73c. Corn opened active and higher on the lowest price, and there was a rush to buy during the first hour. The advance raised the market above the prices at which "calls" sold on Sat urday, and selling against these privileges, along with general profit-taking, caused a re action. September opened 202c higher, at 6O0Olc During the latter part of the ses sion thero were rumors current that the Gov ernment estimate of damage was exaggerated, and September lost some of its firmness, sell ing down to 00c. The close was 11C high er, at 6000c. Oats opened active and higher. Shorts cov ered freely, and there was good buying by the local bulls. September oats closed llc higher, at 30c Provisions were moderately active, and were" influenced but slightly by grain.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 7. Ono of tho Interesting problems that is sure to be lajd before Congress at Its next session will be that of .providing an adequate Natjonal banking law for the Philippine Islands. There are now on file with tho Controller of the Currency many ap plications -for the establishment of Na tional banks in the archipelago, but there Is now no law empowering the depart ment to grant such authority. There are no National banks in the Philip pines at this time. Virtually all of the banking business is conducted by a private concern, of long standing. The islands, under these conditions, offer a wide field for the operation of National banks, and any banking insti tution established there under the direc tion of the United States Treasury will absorb a large share of the constantly. growing business, uongross can xto one of two things; enact a uniform banking law for the Islands, or extend the bank ing laws of the United States, thereby giving our Treasury supervision, and al lowing the department to authorize the establishment of National banks. Until such action is taken., it will be Impos sible for any capitalists to establish Na tional banks In the Philippines. DAILY CITY STATISTICS. Marriage Llcennes. W. D. Kaylor, 45, Hattle M.

Fighting the Nile Sndtl. Pearson's Magazine. There are difficulties and dangers in tearing a passage through the dense masses of floating vegetation which per iodically obstruct the Nlre, making navi gation Impossible. A free waterway has now been opened up the Nile as far as Uganda. In all fourteen blocks of the sudd, as the drifting marshes are called, have been removed, the total length of the river cleared being 83 miles. Tho ac tual work wa9 done by some 750 Soudan ese prisoners under the direct orders of two young officers of the British Royal Nayy. The following is an extract from 'a journal kept by one of them: "Now, as to how'we do it. On arriv ing at a block we tie up the steamer, and set everything on fire, then cut down all the dead papyrus, which is on the sudd, untir it 9oon looks like a very rough field. Then this Held is dug into email sections Downing, Hopkins & Co, ESTABLISHED 1893. WHEAT AND STOCK BROKER Room 4, Ground Floor four or five yards square; the trenches are dug to about two feet under water, the sudd itself being one, two, or three feet above water, and from six to JO underneath. Next we put pieces of wood around our section (cut tip telegraph poles,) fix a wire hawser round the sec tion, shoved well down in the trenches and behind the posts,, and bring the two ends on the steamer. The steamer then backs astern, and eventually pulls out the section, which floats away down stream. The wire is got on board again, the poles are recovered, and t)ie steamer proceeds for anther section. The force and jerk which the steamer brings on the wire severs the roots of the section underneath from the others or at least sometimes does! that's the idea." AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND.
