IS TUB MOBNING OEEGONIAK, 2HUBSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1901. QMERG1AL JW0 Fall trade has attained large volume, and the industries of the country are cnJoyingSwn-' hampered prosperity. Merchants report much business, ooth within and -vrithout the city. The usual st aMlne-ptt In trade activity, -which, comes at the end of a. month, is aot perceptible. Bank clearings reflect large distributive trade operations, and also large shipments of grain from this port. The only nnusual quiet for this season of the year exists in hops ..and wool. Growers are not willing to do business at the present level of prices, and buyers in their turn, are dis posed to wait for a more favorable issue. As yet, little of either product has been disposed of. "Wheat 'has suffered a slight reaction from its recent advance, but is still commanding good values compared with .former Quotations. Potatoes have been gathering strength lately, a fact which some dealers regard portentous of high prices this "Winter. Onions ore also lncllpeS to advance. Fresh Oregon eggs are very scarce, so that consumers have to resort to cold storage and imporedproduct. - Weak ness has come over butter to such an extunt that a decline is probable. Srocery .Quotations have been In the main unchanged for the past few days. Coffee '; strong, .and cheaper grades have advanced :.urly 1c in the past 10 days. Packing-house products are steady. A full supply of Eastern chestnuts has recently ar rived, which sells for $4 005 per drum. A very conspicuous development of the week has 'been the advancing price of barley. WHEAT This wheat market, after a consid erable show of strength last week, has again struck a soft spot, and prices in Europe and the East are, .lower. There has been a. very free selling movement in the Northwest since the last bulge, the cereal coming out so freely that exporters were enabled to cover their tonnage as far ahead as the turn of the year. At the height of the market, prices for Walla Walla ran up to 55c, but since the decline most of the exporters have their limits down around 55c, although a fraction more might be secured. Valley continues largely In the hands of the millers, and exporters axe unable' to pay as much for it tfor export as Is paid for milling. -As previously .stated, the larger portion of the advance In prices in the Pacific Northwest Is due to the feline in freights, and were char ters held as high as they were three months' ago, 50c wheat would be In evidence at tide water. At the present time, tonnage can be obtained for December 3oadlng at 35s. and for January loading at 33s 9d. These rates seem to be fairly satisfactory, and a number of fixtures have been made on this basis, with one or two fixtures with the February option at 22s Cd. Steam tonnage appears to have about reached the limit so far as the round-the-Horn trade Is concerned, and nothing is obtainable at less than 32s Cd to 33s 8d, the last fixture being made at 33s 9d. "While sailers can un doubtedly carry wheat at a profit at much lees than 35s, the operating expenses of a steamer are so great that owners are inclined to lay them "up rather than accept lower -rates than 31s to 32s 6d. ThejJforelgn -market 'this season has been in suoh shape that for the greater part of the time sail -tonnage has commanded i -premium of from Is 3d to 2s 6d over the rates asked for steamers. If this differential is maintained, it is apparent that sail tonnage will strike bottom at higher figures than steam ers, when the latter Are forced out of the Pacific Coast wheat trade by low rates. Shipments for the monjh ending today will come very close to the record for October. They will reach' a total frdm Portland and Puget Sound of over 3,500,000 bushels of "wheat with at least another 1,000,000 bushels going out in the form of flour. Shipments from the entire Pacific Coast have been much heavier this sea son than last, and lor the first nine months of the calendar year have reached a total of 24, 507,14" bushels of wheat, and 1,965,853 barrels of flour, compared with 16,701,716 bushels of wheat, and 2,210,872 barrels of flour for the corresponding: period last year. Tb decrease In the flour trade will all be -made up by the end of the year,'asihe size of the shipments to date have .T)ecn affected by the stagnation in the trade in the Orient, which was so marked earlier in the year. The Argentine crop seems to he the big factor in the situation Just at present, and while there has undoubtedly been some damage, it is probable that the effect has been pretty well discounted. The Liverpool Corn Trade News, under date of October IB, prints the following regarding tho Argentine -crop: Cable advices report another spell of dry weather, which appears to have been accom panied by considerable heat, and fresh Tatns are urgently needed. Our own agent -puts the damage at probably 25 per cent, which Is, of course, a serious item, but possibly some of this damage was caused by the earlier drought, of which the effects is now being discerned. As some offset to the weather damage, there is an Increased area. Shipments of wheat con tinue very small, and stocks are still shrinking; for maize, however, the downward movement of supplies appears to be checked. The same paper contain the following regard-' ing the crop in other countries which Just at present have quite an Important bearing en the world's wheat prices: Russia Latest reports indicate that the weather has generally favored the seeding of tho new crop, although -a dry spell hinders the work in the southeast. Shipments of wheat are maintained fairly well, but the movement is not at all heavy, and It may be that tho scarcity of Spring wheat in the eastern and southeastern parts will keep weekly quantities w'thin the moderate limits right through the season. However, Russia Is a lapd of aur rrises, and the only thing that seems a cer tainty is a large crop movement under the stimulus of high prices. Tndla The Viceroy sends another rather un favorable report. Drought still prevails in the Punjaub. the northwestern provinces, -and some other districts, causing a loss, of the Summer crop, and, of course, until raids fall it will be Impossible to seed the Winter -crop, of which wheat forms an important item in the piov inces mentioned. In the earliest districts it js now time for wheat seeding to be proceeded with, but there Is still plenty of time in the late northern regions. France Seasonable weather has prevailed on the whole, -and Autumn field work has made good progress. Farmers in general are said to be satisfied with actual conditions, but want somewhat warmer weather to push on .the young plant. One Paris paper makes the state ment that, to a certain extent. Winters oats and barley have replaced wheat this season. Prices are decidedly lower than they were -a week ago, and although the movement may have been influenced "by weakness op the in ternational market, yet Paris has been more Inclined to lead than follow, and prices aro 'further from an importing level than they were a week ago. On the other hand, the French Minister of Finances has publicly stated that he expects to obtain an additional 2,000,000 pounds from grain -duties next year, and it Is difficult to see how he wjll obtain the money unless fully 3,500.900 quarters more wheat are imported for home consumption. The London List says that the world's re serve wheat stocks at harvest In 1808 (the Lelter .year) ivere probably at the lowest point In many years, and that, as a matter of .fact, the world's visible supplr on September 1, In that year, was the lowest on recent record. The total on that date was 49,750,000 bushels, against 110.C25.000 bushels the following year, 128.000,000 bushels September 1, 1900, and 112, 000,000 bushels September 1. 1901. On Septem Der S. 1SJM, the maximum of 160,000,000 bush els was reached. .andUn 1893 there were the second largest September holdings, of 156,000, 000 bcshel5. The September average for Hve years prior to 1897 was 133,250,000 bushels, while on September i, 1S97, the world's total was only 63,666.000 bushels. Which -fell to un der 50,000,000 bushels the following year, but Jumped to neany 111,000,000 bushels In 189S. The List observes that the abundant crop of 189S just came In time to prevent very -high priecs, for 'there is little doubt that a normal world's crop, of 2,600,000.000 bushels in 1S9S would have led to a Very high range of prices. H The crop of 1595 was about 2,938,500.000 bush els. "WOOL Quotations in, thclocal -market Are merely nominal. The Oregon crop is disposed of except for a few holdings. Jn-4he; 3osti the product maintains the nsual steadiness'' that has characterized the market all through the season. The New Tork Journal of Commerce, under date or October 26, describes the' Eastern situation as follows: - " Euslness in the local wool market continues -Gttlct, -with na large transactions reported. In - FINANCIAL NEW some quarters, however, there Is a greater In quiry than, for .some time past, and indications point to some sizeable transactions later on. Owing to the number of inquiries coming In, the wool trade as a whole Is in a liopeful mood, and Arm In Its ideas regarding prices. The close touch which mills are keeping with the market is indicated by the large number of inquiries being received and the sample bales -now being "tested; taking" this into considera tion, dealers are satisfied that the outlook for business during the next few months to come is decidedly favorable. The difference be tween the rendition now and that of a .few weeks ago Js that buyers are fairly well able to tell aboul how low holders will sell, as prices are considered to be as low as they will go, and are expected to hold their own at present quotations. The inquiry for Texas wool has been consid erable during the past week, but little business has resulted; sample bag shipments have been made, and are at present undergoing tests, the result of which with regards to business, how ever, remains ,to be seen. Prices on fine stock especially continue firm. The Interest In pulled wools has suffered somewhat from the fact that territory wools Tiave been a'allable at prices lower than pulled. This has resulted in many mills which formerly bought -polled wools re fraining from purchasing this stock and others only buying in a limited way. Now that more" interest Js oeing shown In pulled stock, holders are more hopeful of a better demand. On for eign carpet wools consumerss-are watching the market very closely and making some offers which, however, are as a rule below present quotations. Stocks of this wool are considered good property, in view of the higher prices prevailing in the countries of production. Scotch wools seem to be In considerable favor with (he carpet trade, and a fair amount of stock continues to arrive from the other side on direct Import orders. HOPS Buyers and sellers are still estranged. The most common prlce of tho few "high-grade sale's that have taken place' Is lOJic, although some jvery fine lots i are reported to have brought lie. The hop movement Is very leth argic, and in great contrast with last year's business, which was about all finished by "the latter part of November. Probably not one fourth of this year's Oregon crop has been sold. CJrowers and buyers appear to have ex pectations of better things, and each side draws 'encouragement from the conditions of supply elsewhere. The Eastern markets are quiet and seemingly a little easier. The ruling price is . from 12c to 12&C, althoqgh choice stock 'is reported to have been sold as high as lS&c. Tb6 following iff taken !from the New Tork Journal of Commerce of Qctober 26: The local market is dull the reason now as signed being the brewers aro hdtdlng back purchases until after tho electipm. More ac tivity is reported up the state. Growers are freer to offer their goods, and there 4s more disposition to buy shown by dealers. Advlcos from Watenllle indicate an easier market, sales of some good lots having oeen made there yesterday at 12c, which is now said to be the top price. A wire from the Pacific Coast reports that the feeling there also Is .easier, with more inclination to sell. Aireport received In the'trade here Is tp the effect that exporters on the Coast are trying to secure consignments, offering to make advances of lg2c under the market. The apathy of consumers has, a depressing Influence upon the market, without, however, causing actual lower prices. Infaet, there is no room for a decline, as prices now quoted are barely above a parity with the cost of new goods. Country reports are of the same general character as those noted' for sometime past. In the Watervllle district,' according to the Times, hops reached the 13Je mark last week, and this week it has not been quite equaled, though there has been one sale, that of C. L. Terry, of 93 bales, at a little better than 13c Hlchard .Lewis sold the lot mentioned at 13Jc he having I2Q bales. D. P. Welch got 18S4c for 56 bales. Other sales were made at 12c and 12&c Other late sales were: Michael Horan, 12 bales, at 12c, and Patrick Clary, D5 bales at 12&c The Otsego Republican reports a quiet market for the past week In that sec tion. There were a lew' purchases at 12Hc, and growers' views were rery firm. The Co blesklll Index fiays that quite a quantity of hops has been sold at 13c. and reports the sale of 1300 boxes, the crop of -Jewel Becker, of Sharon Hill, at 15c, with 'that Price offered for more. BABLET Prices of this cereal have grown suffer of late, Thlsisaue partly, to the fact that most of Vhe local crop has been disposed of, and partly to the higher market in Cali fornia. Prices locally hover at about ?IC and at $16 50 for choice brewing grade. Large shipments of barley nave been made from this port this season. DAIRY PRODUCTS Butter 'has developed considerable weakness, and a decline In values Is probable. Large quantities are still un touched In cold storage, Inasmuch as produc tion keeps tip close to demand. Orders have slackened up In the past week, and output has perceptibly increased. Prices at present are '12I5c for store' grades, and 2526Vic for fancy creamery. Extra choice brands are selling for 27Jc Cheese has a steady market, with a fairly good demand. POULTRY Chickens have sold readily In the past week, and demand for turkeys has In creased. Orders for chickens have been light, and receipts have not been out of proportion, so that quotation? have ruled steady. Good Springs "bring $4 50 per dozen. Ducks and geese are quiet. Turkeys sell at about Hl2Hc EGGS Fresh Oregon eggs are scarce, and command a premium. The market is subsist ing 'almost wholly on cold-storage and East ern product. The best price for this, grade Is 22&C. Homo eggs have been selling at 25 27ic, the latter, however, an. extreme figure. If It were not for Imported product prices would be very. high. No shipments have been made to 6an Francisco, although the margin between the markets there and here is about 12c on fresh product. In view of the stringen cy In local supply, importations from the East will -doubtless continue. POTATOES AND ONIONS-Prices have stif fened appreciably in the past week. The sell ing price of potatoes to the trade Is 8395c for best stock. Farmers are paid from TOS0e for the same grade. Most growers are staying away from market In expectation of better prices. The general opinion Is that the outlook for prices Is favorable.. Farmers are busy gathering the crop. The output this year will bo large, "but outside orders are looked for to dispose of surplus. The San Francisco mar ket has, been going upward recently, and the local strength Is in sympathy. Onions are also strong and "tending toward an advance. The top notch for best stock Is now ?1 35. Several heavy sales have been made in the country, and receipts have fallen off somewhat. PRUNES-Quotatlons are ' mostly nominal, and range between 333ic. Prices to the trade are between 45c. Growers have little disposition to enter the market, and buyers all seem contents to stay away. Dealers are holding off for more favorable terms, and are not stocking up as Is usual at this time of year. "The general' condition of the market here and elsewhere lends scant hope of an 1 immediate- improvement. MEATS A good demand "keeps this market active. Mutton is firm and gaining strength. Beef and pork are steady; and veal has good sale. Receipts are quite liberal, and since tho Fall season began have been much Improved In quality. , VEGETABLES .AND FRUITS-Fumpkins and squashes are in fair demand at 75cl per cental, and aro plentiful.- sjweet potatoes arc In market In large supply, so that prices are somewhat-depressed. Cabbage and caullfloweft ara. plentiful at 75cf 1 per cental, Tomatoc3 also are in full supply. , Cranberries sell readily at S3i9c per, pound. Apple' stocks are large, especially' of second grade' fruit, plenty of, quinces are' on hand, also pears. Grapes wre well sold off yes terday at $131 25.

The volume of deal ings fell off still further today, and waSj again congested in . few stocks in which there Was rather obvious manipulation. The manipula tion was for the advance, but Its effect was confined to the leading actlvestocks so far as any notable results were conccrnedr The gen eral list was , sluggish, and hesitating, an fluctuated narrowly throughout. The coalers were" taken In hand for. an upward movement, the concentrated buying of the group being based' on lae reports" of very heavy demand and a traffic only limited by the car supply, while prices are firmly maintained at the maximum of recent years. The highest-priced members" of the group gained from 2?a3 points, and those selling under par rosa about a. point, St. Paul re sumed its recent show of strength, and was followed as jsual by the Pacific stocks to the extent of between 1 and 2 points. There was another demonstration In tho Vanderbllts also today, but Its influence did "ijot extend very effectively outside of that group. Aiual gamated Copper continued active and some what Irregular above yesterday's level, yet unconfirmed rum6rs circulated of the possible incorporation of Calumet & Hecla. The Na tional Lead prospects of Improved trade con ditions and Manhattan ana Sugar also helped out the show of strength. . The determination to take a cheerful view of the gold export movement, which was In creased today to a total of, $2,83Oy000, was ap parently based on the Idea that the relief afforded to the foreign situation will be re flected back upon tbls market. There is some assurance felt also that the movement will be checked after tomorrow's shipments. This feeling- will be emphasized if the Bank of England maintains its. discount rate unchanged tomorrow, as now. seems possible. Judging from the freedom with which the bank dis counted today at the current -rato. The fa vorable subscriptions announced yesterday for New York city bonds are taken jus reassuring regarding money market conditions and the release of November disbursements, Including Government interest, Is looked to tide over next week. Some currency Is returning from the West and the transfers to the South have diminished. Receipts of gold from the Pa cific Coast through the Subtreasury -have served to lighten the drain of that institution upon the money market With surplus re serves at a figure well above that of last year and a year before, anxiety over the money market tends to relax, and 'the sentiment Is expressed that the gold exports can Well be. spared After a very irregular movement the market elbstd firm in the neighborhood 'of the best prices Railroad bonds were only moderately active, and show Irregular changes. Total sales, par value, $2,660,000. United States bonds werp all unchanged on the last call. Closing Stock Quotations. a RAILROADS. R r n tDl I TTSAl TQ Atchison do pfd :.!.

Qniet Elections Expected in Seven States to Hold Them. Chicago Tribune. Seven states are to hold elections in November namely: Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Mary land, Ohio and Iowa. Of these seven states the Democrats are absolutely cer tain of cxrrylns- Virginia. There is a pos sibility they may secure Maryland. The situation In Pennsylvania is 50 mixed, by Republican revolts no intelligent forecast can be made. The remaining four may be safely counted as Republican. In Massachusetts Governor Crane will be re-elected and probably by an in creased majority. The Democrats will Teject Gamaliel Bradford's voluntary offer to .pay all the expenses and make all the speeches in consideration of the nomi nation, and give It to Mr. Qulncy, who will have . the honor of being defeated by Crane. New Jersey shows no inten tion of making a change, and Franklin Murphy, the varnlsh-maker, one of the most popular Republicans in "the state, will be the next Governor upon a, plat form based on the late President's last speech, with an additional plank calling for the suppression of anarchistic teach ings. In Pennsylvania the situation is anomalous. Many of the leading Re publicans in the state have abandoned their party to fight the machine, and a fusion has been made with them by the Democrats. The Republican state conven tion has indorsed the machine ticket, but notwithstanding the overwhelming Republican majority. It -Is within the bounds of possibility that the fusion ticket may win-, -as happened once before when Robert E. Pattlson, Democrat, was elected. Two amendments to the -constitution will also be voted, upon, and prob ably, will be carried, one authorizing the use of voting machines and the other providing a proper registration law for the cities. In Virginia, tho Republicans aro showing unusual activity, but there can be no doubt as to the success of the Democrats. In Maryland the outcome Is somewhat doubtful, though the Republi cans are confident they will succeed and that the Legislature to be elected will choose a 'Republican successor to "Welling ton, and thus defeat Gorman. Ohio and Iowa will roll "up large Republican ma jorities as usual. The Fall elections of 1001 will not make any important change in the political situation such as happened in, 1881 after the death of Garfield. There are no fac tions In the Republican party now, as there were then. The elections will be quiet affairs and quietest on the Demo cratic side because there is less life there than usual. As a matter of fact, the only elcctlon which promises to be a lively one is tho municipal election in New York. Seth Low's assault upon Tammany win "be more interesting than all the state elections taken together. Tactics Approved. "Yes," said the assistant, "I have sent out the circulars requesting tho office-holders to contribute." "Good," said the campaign manager. "Wo must have the sin ews of war." "And I have arranged that tho pioper officials shall warn their subordinates not to contribute." ''Excellent That ought to make a good impression on the nonpartisan voters." Brooklyn Life.
