G0M&EL IRD
The past week has 'been & period of great
activity la all lines of business and industry.
Merehaots have been busier than ever before
at this iseason, both on outside 'and city orfem.
The oaly product ef the Northwest which is
absolutely inactive is prunes. Transactions
in wheat have slackened UpUn amount 'under
Influences both of rising- prices and strong
freights. The movement Of the cereal has,
however, been large. AIL grains at present
are firm to strong. ,
Haps have shown, a loosening up, and con
siderable trading has been .done, chiefly at
flCHres between 9ftl0a Mills'tuffs have good
demand at stedor prices. The lumber indus
try Is active. Filling of a good-steed order for
the Orient Is now in progress. The salmon
season has ended on the Columbia River with
a very small pack. The output in cases is
under 50.000 and in tierces about 2550. Prices
lun Vmt -tm trclt In en narlsan Trith those
of Northers salmon. Little wool is leftjSere
to do business with, so that the chief Interest
in the market ccraoe from thefeast. Onions
and potatoes are tending upward. Eggs are
high, and butter and poultry weak. Packing
house products are also weak. Supplies of
California fruits and vegetables arrived
"Wednesday night.
WHEAT The wheat market had a strong J
tone yesterday. Advices ln'the morning from
the East gave strength locally, but the stiffen
ing largely relapsed in the East towards the
close of the day. and had a restricting tenden
cy locally. Quotations here were higher, and
were given at 65Cc .for Walla Walla, al
though the latter figure is sot quoted by some
exporters. There is Increasing stiffness in
freights, and this is causing some hesitancy in
the local market following the situation in
the East. Exporters have about all -Of their
engaged tonnage taken care of, and are obliged
to figure on securing ships to handle new
business Valley wheat continues to be large
ly in the hands of the millers, who are paying
more money than exporters cared to risk. Com
paratively little is doing in the Portland mar
ket in the Valley cereal. Only small Quantities
are offered at quotations. Practically little i
of this season's yield, has been touched by
Portland exporters. The strong condition of
tonnage Is indicated by the chartering of two
ships for January and February loading re
spectively at 35s. The movement of wheat to
tidewater Ii not so heavy as it was last week.
There are now about 12 vessels In port either
loading or preparing for cargoes. Loading is
going forward freely.
Argentina The crop situation in J this im
portant district Is at the present the center of
Interest for the international grain trade. Some
riln has fallen, but the moisture appears to
hwe been barely sufficient even to relieve the
drouth, and lias been quite unable to effect
ay real improvement in crop conditions- in
the drouth-stricken Korth. Our own agent
at Buenos Ayres cables that In the northern
dstricts of Santa Fe, Entre Rios and Cordoba,
crop conditions are bad, owing to the early
drouth, but, on the other hand. In Buenos
Ayres and the southern parts of other prov
inces, prospects are good. It is, of course, im
possible to say what the above-mentioned -dam-rge
Will amount to If expressed quantitatively,
but people last week were already talking of
-. yield no larger than last year, the export sur
plus from which Is now practically exhausted.
ast year Buenos Ayres grew rather more than
ne-thlrd of the total crop, or 3,500,000 quar
Sers of a total of 0,000,000 quarters.
The first note of dissatisfaction with .crop
conditions was sounded early in the season,
and referred to the abnormally mild weather.
Then for a time reports were favorable, but
with October a period of stormy, unfavorable
weather set in which lasted until nearly the
middle of November, by which time estimates
of the export surplus had been cut down to
1,500,000 tons of joorlsh qtxal!tr. In 1800 fa
vorable reports wore received right ,alopg, the
tfvt complaints made being hardly worth men
tioning, and, as every one knows, 0,000; 000
quarters were shipped to Europe in the 12
months following. In 1S0S, complaints of
drought commenced. Soptember 23, but good
rains fell before the end of the month. Octo
"ber 10, sharp frosts were reported, which part
ly damaged wheat.
In November Jiie weather was cold and wet,
and did not clear up and become settled until
December 21. The 'exports to Europe from
this crop were 7,750,000 quarters. In 1807 there
was a partial failure. In September there
were many reports of locusts; frost occurred
September 24, also September 28; September
29 rains were badly wanted, and the drouth
was not relieved until October 18. The disas
ters to the crop of 1S06 were caused by a
number of unfavorable influences, among which
frost, blight and locusts figured prominently.
Shipments were a negligible quantity. Taking
a broad view, one may say that, although it
would be asy enough to point out a number
of erroneous crop reports and faulty forecasts
for recent jears, jet the reports, taken as a
whole, give a good indication of what a stand
ing crop will turn out.
Australasia The recent cable advice reports
useful rains in Victoria, and JIght showers in
Rlverenla districts of South Wales. The first
mentioned colony has lately complained that
: crop prospects are not so good, owing to
drouth. We notice that a fair number of
vessels have already been fixed for wheat, and
no doubt most of these will load new crop.
Harvest is now on the point of starting in
early districts; last jear & very early field
was cut in South Australasia by October 10,
but as a rule very little grain is gathered be
fore th end of November, and December is
considered the harvest month by most people.
India Rains have fallen during the last
week, but, of course, could not make good the
previous damage. However, the Viceroy re
ports that crop prospects have Improved. Rain
should be of groat benefit for the new seedlngs,
and cultivators have still about two months (In
the Punjaub even longer) Jn which to do the
work. Shipments are now small, and it is
fairly certain that the native will hold their
wheat tightly until they feel assured about
the new crop.
France Weather has been quite seasonable,
and farmers have 'been busy with field work.
The young" wheat plant, where above groupd.
Is doing well, but in the northern departments
seeding Is late, owing to delay with the lifting
of beet roots.
Germany The weather has been quite season
able, and there are no complaints concerning
the new crops. Arrivals'of foreign wheat are
easily absorbed, so long as the quantities are
Within, reasonable limits,
WOOL Some few quantities are left In this
district, but they are relatively small. Noth
ing is doing in the local market A few scat
tered shipments have been made East In the
past week There are, however, practically
no transactions going on, and 'local dealers
take more of their Interest in the Eastern mar
ket, where things were very lively last week.
The following, from the Boston Commercial
Bulletin of November 2, tells of the large sell
ing movement In that city;
The week Just past has witnessed the largest
transactions in wool ever accomplished In any
one week in any American market -We say
this with entire -consciousness that in -the week
In 1S0O there wsre sold 18,000.000 pounds ot
wool A conservative statement In regard to
this week's business would be that 5.000.000
pounds of wool, every pound of It to manu
facturers, has, been sold this week. One house
alone sold 10.000.000 pounds. Individual sales
of 1.O00.000 pounds have not been exceptional.
A single house In a single day sold 300Q bags
of pulled and scoured wool alone. The trans
actions here are not confined to wool owned
In this market
The uneasiness that prevailed a week or so
ago has been averted, and the market Is In the
strong position that the statistical conditions
seemod to promise some time ago. Supplies
of wool havf centered very largely In Boston,
and though the supply in sight Is by no means.
large, the stock here, combined with the soul
shattering experiences of 1000, have induced
holders to sell wherever a profit was shown.
It is worth noticing that the wool which has
gone off the quickest, and which has paid a
profit, is: the very wool which the croakers
HfflfflHA " NEW8
stated coulJ only fce sold at & loss; that is,
the wool from Texas and Montana.
The New York Journal of Commerce of No
vember 2 thus sums upUie situation:
Conditions in the- local wool market show
somewhat of an improvement this week In com
parison with those of last week. More ot a
demand sas en In evidence,' and although to
a large extent of a fllTtng-in character the
aggregate for the week makes a fair showing.
The sample bag btislnces, which has for some
time been a feature in the market has begun
to bear frultc and from Snvnral ttuarters or-.
dcrs are reported as a result of this policy?
Th feeling among wool dealers that from
now on business will steadily increase is gen
eral, and though large -transactions' are not
looked for. It is expected that.the amount or
small orders will fully make up for the Ab
sence of heavy Individual orders. Owing to tjils
opinion, holders are firmly maintaining pres
ent prices, and In the orders placed manufac
turers have come up to dealers prices in order
to meet their immediate demands.
The principal demand of the week has large
ly turned Ho pulled wools in B supers, fine
medium and comtflng wools, B supers have
been taken at various prices, ranging from 30c
to 33c per pound, the largest individual order
reported being taken at 31c, and amounting to
about 30,000 pounds. On low-grade wools the
market continues on the same basis, and showB
little Improvement Carpet wools have been
rather quiet, and orders to hand are reported to
be of small size; prices, however, continue
firm, and for orders .placed little difficulty has
been found in obtaining asking prices On
Texas and Territory wools; though the indi
vidual orders received have been small, the
amount of sales for the wek foot up a very
fair total.
Sales for the week in the local market arc
reported as aggregating 835,000 pound;, of
which 725,000 pounds Were domestic and 210,000
pounds foreign, making a total of 23,124.500
pounds since January 1.
HOPS Activity has Increased In this prod
uct In the local market although ..conditions
elsewhere have been dull. The local Improve
ment is due, perhaps, to a disposition of
growers to ease up in their demands. The
outlook for better prices immediately does not
appear favorable at this time. Quotations
have suffered a slight decline in the past two
weeks, or else growers have receded from
their demands In order to dispose of their
product Some sales have been reported aa
high as lOHc In the past few days. The major
ity of sales however, have been negotiated at
prices between Oc and 10c. Scarcity of cars
still hampers shipments. Several carloads,
however, go Eastward every day. At present
it seems that aboit half the Oregon crop of
about 00,000 bales has been disposed of, and
about one-third sent away. The general grade
of this season's crop is regarded as good. Ono
of the. most conspicuous deals lately took place
at Puyallup, when about 2000 bales, mostly
belonging to ono grower, were consigned to
London at a 7c advance. The difference In
prices of purchases for the East and Europe
is about He In the markets of the United
States business is dull, although some activity
exists In New York In the state crop. Of the
shipments from. Oregon thus far, it Is esti
mated on good authority that about one-third
bave gone to the" seaboard cities. Arrange
ments for a pool by Oregon growers, whereby
4000 or 5000 bales -will he consigned to Eng
land at a 0c advance are still In progress.
Thero seems to be much difference of opinion
In regard to the outcome of the transaction.
The New York Journal of Commerce of No
vember 2 has the following to say of the con
ditions in Oregon and New York State:
Interest senters in the export movement In
Oregon as a result of tho recent proposition to
growers, through the Oregon Hopgrowers' As
sociation. The offer to advance 0c without
recourse on consignments, it is stated in a let
ter Just received, was taken up promptly by
many growers, and after the syndicate mak
ing it had secured all they could on consign
ment they began buying, paying, It Is said,
up to J04c for choice. All told, according to
the correspondent above quoted, they secured
about 5000 bales. This news was supplemented
today by telegraph advices from Oregon to the
effect that the so-called syndicate is buying
freely at 1010Uc. and that the market Is
firmer. The state market b also reported to
be stronger, with sales of a number of largo
fcrops In the Watervlllc district withlri tho
past day or two at 1213c. T,he local mar
ket remains as dull aa ever, dealers finding It
almost impossible to Interest-brewers, although
It is reported, that in some Instances prices
are quoted for forward delivery that would
admit of no profit to the dealers at tJje present
cost In the country.
PRUNES This product is about the only cne
in the Northwest at present that is absolutely
stagnant Eastern consumers seem to bo so
well stocked up that they do not Just
now have to enter the market A wide
range of prices exists in the local market In
regsrd to nonlnal quotations. Of course, deal
ers who have all the prunes, they need are
wont to quote lowest The range operas to be
from 8c to 3lo for prime grade, and for the
best fruit 3$ic has been offered. Growers gen
erally reject these prices, and are preparing to
wait for better prlees. Several producers har
Portland are reported to be getting r ready a
consignment -to tho East Fine prunes have
been offered to Portland merchants this week
at 4e, but have been universally refused. Most
dealers are of the opinion that the 50,000,000
pound carry-over prunes of California is tho
cause of the present depression. Petite prunes
had a light yield, this Season, so that even in
a normal condition of tho market business in
them would be small. They are quoted from
lH3t$c
OATS AND BARLET-Jats are firm to
stronger, owing to inclination of farmers to
hold their product Scarcity of cars end pros
pective transport business keeps priqes, up. It
is not alone the tenacity of the farmers that
.Ulffens prices, but also th fact that oats do
not come to market In large quantities, bo
cause of shortage of transportation facilities.
Barley is strong also, caused by general Coast
conditions of the market and diminished sup
ply In this district Most of tho crop hero has
been disposed cf. Prices bave been about
steady in the past week at $1618 50, the lat
ter figure for choice brewing grade. Oats sell
at prices ranging from 00c to (1, Off-rings
have not been so large in the past week or
two as they were before, K
SALMON The output of Columbia River
salmon this year In cases Is conservatively
estimated at 225,000 cases. Some .estimates
exceed these figures, and run as high as 250.000
cases. The former figures are safe to rely
upon.' The output Jn tierces is given at about
2550, from 85 to 00 carloads. This Includes
pickled and cold-storage fish. The Fall pack
amounts to very little, perhaps 1C000, accord
ing to the authority of a prominent cannery
man. The season is now oyer, as the cannery
which persisted Jn, working closed down last
week.
POTATOES AND ONIONS Both products
are firm to strong, especially the former. The
latter scored an advance In the course of tho
week, and Is now quoted at from $1 23 to $1 50
fpr best stock. Growers of both products are
mostly holding on for higher -prices. Potatoes
bave been scarce In the local market of late,
and receipts very light Growers arc paid from
BQc to 00c per cental, apd city prices are lOo
higher. Small shipments have been made to
Eastern Oregon and Washington and to San
Francisco In Insignificant amounts. Owing to
the cheapness of the California crop, demand
there for Oregon, crop is light
MILLSTUFFS AH grades are in strong de
mand. Production has picked up of late but
the output has been readily absorbed. Chop
sells at $15016 SO; bran, $15 5017; shorts,
"$16017 BO, and middlings, $10$20 50 The dif
ference of $1 80 is according to large and
small purchases.
EGGS This products is extremely scarce in
fresh Oregon grade. Prices have advanced tp
SQc, although some dealers quote 27c The
former figure is regarded rather high, slnco
It puts eggs at retail at 35c Full supplies of,
Eastern eggs are on hand and on the way.
Cold-storage Oregon product is also in full
supply. The latter grades sell at 2022c
DAIRY .PRODUCTS Butter Is still very
dull. Some dealers resort to cut prices 'to
clear sway surplus. Considerable quantity'' is
ellll In "cold storage. Store grade isTperhaps,
even mere sluggish than dairy and creamery.
Cheese U steady, with good .supply. Young
Americas are scant and In demand. A car
load of Eastern cheese is on the road, and
will be thrown on the market in o. few days.
Some dealers are of the opinion that it will
have a depressing-effect here 6f c or mor-.
POULTRY The market in poultry has been
actlye and easy for the past two weeks, but
symptoms are now apparent of oversupply.
All kinds bad a bard time working off yes
terday. Prices were generally quoted lower
for chickens -and turkeys. In turkeys, dealers
have had almost more than they could tako
care of. Prices range from about 10c to lHle
for the latter "fowls. Chickens iteneraily brim:
10c, and lc higher for very choice blrds
faeeso and ducks aro rather dull.
"DRESSED MEATS-Mutton "is the strongest
in ths market and is" tending toward an ad
vance. Eastern Oregon receipts are short and
somewhat hard to get Pork is weak from
oversupply. Beef and veal are steady.
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES Grapeff. cran
berries, apples, pear and oulncea are plentiful.
The last named is nearlng the end of the season,
and demand la small.. Cheap apples are plenti
ful. Cranberries are coming in freely from
the seacoast districts and the East. Tomatoes
are also abundant Sweet potatoes are grad
ually recovering from-thelr recent oversupply.
Cabbage and cauliflower arc of excellent qual
ity, but drag because of abundance, pumpkins
and squashes are In full supply. Oranges are
somewhat higher.

was dominated by the authoritative admissions
from various quarters that the basis had been
adjusted for the settlement of the Northern
Pacific controversy, although the report of ah
early announcement was not anticipated, de
tails, being nqt ready to be arransed. The ar
rival from Europe today ot W. K Vanderbljt,
who was namd by Mr. Morgan as the final
arbitrator of any difference upon whlchtjie
conciliation board of directors .might be unable
la come to an agreement helped Xo incite the
large speculative buying which was notable
among all the transcontinental railways.
TJia deailngB in Union Pacific and -St. Paul
were pn a scale to recall th days of the stoek
market boom In tho Spring of this year, and
resulted in an advance in St Paul of 415 and
ifa tJnfofi 'Pacific ot 4tf. The Union.1- Pxelflcr
convertible bohds were absorbed at tho samo
time on ah enormous scale In Southern Pa
cific the. rise was 1, Northern Pacific iu,
Atchfaon 2& and' Northwestern 3Tk
Northern Pacific preferred fluctuated narrow
ly, thus suggesting that its present price- Is
near to its valuation under the plan. The
Southwestern and some of the Southern stocks
afforded another center of activity and strength,
based on the series of .extraordinarily favor
able returns of gross earnings for the fourth
week in October. The- Southern Railway Stocks
wero also aided by the vote of Cincinnati In
favor pf extending the lease of the Cincinnati
Southern. The' increase 1n railway earnings
for the fourth week in October over those for
the corresponding period of last yoar Mr Mis
souri Pacific reached 22 per cent; Bt Louis &
San Francisco. '25 per cent; Louisville &. Nash
ville, 14 per cent and Mexicans and Tex&ns,
l5 per cent There were other roads with al
most equally striking gains, but they did not
share in the advance..
A number ot specialties were notably weak
early in the day. Including- Sugar, Amalga
mated, Peoplo'a Gas, American Ico and Metro
politan Street Railway, but except In Sugar
and Amalgamated Copper there wero strong re
coveries. The large dealings in bonds ocntered in tho
Unioa Pacific and other convertible bond issues.
Total sales, $0,370,000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on the last call.

moments, but at that figure the rush of com-mleslon-houeo

COST OF LIVING.
Now Higher Than at Any Time 'in.
the Decade.
NEW YORK. Nov. 0 Dun's Review, to be
issued November 0, will say:
"Dun's Index number, covering 330 questions,
with due allowance for the relative Importance
of each, was $07 743 on November 1, an In
crease of nine-tenths of 1 per cent for the
month of October, and 7 per cent as compared
with the samo date last year. The cost of
living has now reached the highest point of
the decade, notwithstanding the cheapening of
many manufactured goods through improved
processes and the absence of unduo Inflation
In various classes of steel products, which was
conspicuous in the Spring of 1900. and brought
about tho subsequent severe reaction.
"No artificial stimulus Is responsible for the
present high level of manufactured products,
and aside from some rise In food products, duo
to short crops, the present position of the In
dex number may be attributed to sound busi
ness conditions and full employment of labor
at high wages. Prior to November 1, thi top
point during the past 10 years was March 15,
100v when tho cost of living per capita per
annum was $97 40.
