THE MOBNINGr OBEGONIA! THURSDAY,-TO VJEMBBR 21, -1901. 13 COMMERCIA'L rfflN November business in practically all Tines continues to run ahead of previous records. Farmers are marketing an enormous crop of wheat, oats and barley there Is a fine crop -of hops, which are bringing at least remunerative prices, and frulC potatoes and smaller farm products are all In bis supply And commanding good prices. With such a large and varied stock of buying collateral. It Is easy to un derstand how general trade holds -tip to Its present record proportions well on toward the end of the month. "While tho Christmas holi days are still some distance In the. future, there Is a heavy buying of seasonable luxuries, as well as staples, and the Christmas trade prem ises better than ever before. Thanksgiving poultry has commenced to arrive in quantities too large for the good of prices, arid there uas some weakness shown yesterday. The large receipts were aided In causing lower prices by the open season for selling Chinese pheasants. Hundreds of these birds arrive dally, and together with liberal receipts of 1 wild ducks and geese, take the place of a large number of domestic fowl&w F-ggs are weaker than they were last week, on account of increasing receipts of Oregon stock and of Easf-n eggs. There is something over 1500 cases of Oregon eggs In cold storage la this city, and these are hanging over the market and preventing strength. Butter de clined from a cent to 24c per pound early in the week, and th6 market Is dull at quotations, Oats and bailoy are firm, potatoes and onions higher, and -veal and pork steady. The grocery markets are all firm, with no change of im portance la prices. "WHEAT Portland continues to float over 600,000 bushols of wheat per week, and has for several weeks been buying about twice as much as was floated. Some buyers, in fact, have bought so heavily that they have tonnage covered as far ahead as February. The market has been somewhat erratic for be past few days, with a fair undertone of strength as serting itself on the slightest occasion. Prices in this market since Monday have been cover ing a wider range than usual for this season, Walla Walla ranging from 56c and 56ttc up to 58c The latter flguro was paid In but few cases, and as a rosult of some pretty stiff competition, but yesterday 57c was generally obtainable for Walla Walla, with none of the exporters quoting under 57c For bluestem BSHc was offered, while Valley was- Inclined to trail at 57c for export. Valley quotations, as have been the case throughout the season, are to a large extent nominal, as the exporters have a difficult task to secure enough wheat for a cargo by paying export figures, the mills outbidding them in torn cases lie per bushel. Freights continue to puzzle the oldest opetr ators In the business, and despite the weakness In other ports and a statistical position that is not as strong as It might be, owners ars still holding for stiff rates, and the demand for ships seems sufficient to back them up In the stand they have taken. Tonnage for load k ing well Into next Spring can be secured as low as 31s 3d and 32s Gd, but for anything near at hand. 35s d to 3ls 6d is asked, and has been paid within the past 48 hours. Just how long this condition of affairs will last Is uncertain, but the owners of both steam and sail vessels do not seem to fear lower freights. The ships in port are receiving good dispatch, and the clearings for the month will be close to the record. The Argentine crop continues to have a great effect on tho general situation, and reports of an improvement in that country assisted bear ish statistics early In the weekln hammering down prices quite materially for a short time. The Liverpool Corn Trade News, under date of November 4, has the following regarding the Argentine situation: Today we again learn by cable that rains have fallen In the southern section of Santa Fe, Entre RIos and Corboda, and that the crop prospects there are rather better. The total export surplus of the country is estimated by our agent at not under 2,000.000 quartera of wheat, available for export from the standing crop, but the quantity will not fall below that figure, and the available surplus of some 2.W0, 090 quarters looks a very small quantity It we compare it with the 8,000,000 quarters shipped from a big crop, and even the deficient harvest of last year hda provided about 4,000,000 quar ters. Mall advices Just coming to hand show that up to October 10 or 11, generally hopeful views are entertained about crop prospects, one paper, the Buenos Ayres Standard, even de scribing the crop as splendid. However, the first whisperings of disaster are beginning to be heard, for a Rosarlo report mentions pros pects for a yield below last year's from the districts to the north of th,at town, with re markably uneven growth. The same .paper has the following regarding conditions elsewhere: Russia The weather recently has been cold, and Interior navigation will soon ba dosed. Dry weather has generally prev ailed, but tho crop situation on the whole Is regarded as satisfactory, except In some parts of the lower Volga and Azof! districts, where the prolonged drouth has hindered or prevented seeding and caused defective germination. The export root cment w as larger last week, as Azott ports are hastening to send away as much grain as possible before the end of the season. Navi gation usually closes therp about November 25. India The Viceroy cables that pr6spects are unaltered, and that the outlook la gloomy in South Punjaub, parts of Central India and Rajputana. We presume that In the districts mentioned it Is impossible to sow wheat and the other crops for the Spring harvest, but there is some time yet before all hopes may be abandoned. Sowing can be done as late as December in most provinces. Germanj The weather is seasonable, and the crop situation continues satisfactory. Supplies of wheat have recently ieen on a smaller scale, and holders are expecting better prices. In the Pacific Northwest, amuch smaller acreage of Tall wheat has been put In than was harvested last season, the weather being unfavorable. Much the same conditions are reported from California. The situation east of the Rocky Mountains is thus reviewed by the Cincinnati Price Current, In a review of its crop correspondence for the week ending last Saturday The past week has made jio material change in the condition of the growing wheat and other Fall-sown crops, which Is, on the whole, very favorable. The season so far has been very dry. especially west of the Mississippi River, and although the plant has a good stand and generally a healthy appearance, ltJs very desirable for the good of the plant that gen erous rains fall before cold weather freezes the ground to any considerable extent. In the Western States, especially In Kansas and Mis souri, the deficiency In stock water has become an Important feature In the livestock situation, which, in connection with the high price dl feed, Is causing the rush to market of 'stock which would, under normal conditions, be mar keted later In the season and In a more ma ture condition. Last v eek's strength In wheat prices has led some to hold wheat more firmly, while others seem to be more disposed to sell at such prices, thus Indicating that there Is no general ten dency, either to hold or to sell wheat. How ever, the movement of Winter wheat to pri mary markets has been smaller than might have been expected from a crop so large as the last one Is believed to be. This week's re ports continue to reflect liberal feeding of wheat to stock, especially west of the Missis- slpp River, where at many points wheat is cheaper than com. Northwestern grain move ment appears to be about normal. BARLEY "Tie barley market is very firm un der the stress of a good demand for shipment East and from Interior brewers. Sales have been made as high as $14 per ton in the Palouse, a figure which preyents any export business at this port so long as such rates are obtainable for Tall shipment. Feed is quoted at about $10 50 in this port, and brewers object to paying anything of a differential for brewing stock. This is apparently near the limit for Portland, as any further advance would admit of Ban Francisco coming into the Portland market at lower figures, the -best figures on brewing In that market being about $15 per ton. HOPS The hop market has been very active this week, and the crop la moving- oat much more freely than was expected. Shipments to date of this season's crop are reported at 38,000 bales, wltn at least 10,000 bales more passed cut of first hands, leaving but 15,000 bales to be disposed of. The bulk of the sales made this week have been around 0c per pound, al though srme choice stock has sold, at 10c There has also been considerable ordinary etock E1KANC1AL HEWS sold at 8c jef pound. From present indica tions, the. clean-up by January J will be mveh more thorough than It was on a corresponding date last year. Mall advices from Kent, Eng land, tinder date of November 2, are as fol lows: "" -" "" " Mos of the- best hops caving been sold, the choicest grades are now almost impossible to obtain. There is more trade doing, in second-. ary'quallties, fitit -prices are considerably lower. A larger proportionjaf growth than ustial has ; been sold during the last three weeks. A fea ture which should prove favorable to English produce Js, that samples of the California crop are found to be disappointing, and It is now certain that the total Imports will be less than anticipated. Brewers do not hold large stocks, and consequently it is considered probable that prices for all sound produce will eventually Improve.

POTATOES AND ONIONS The weather for the past few days has been unfavorable for digging potatoes, and receipts are accordingly much smaller than last week, with prices high er. Best Burbanks sell at $1 and $i 10 -per cental, and hardly anything Is moving at less than 75?S5c per cental. Onions are also stronger, and while there Is some objection to paying $2 per cental for them, receipts are not sufficiently heavy to weaken1 that price in the slightest BUTTER The weather this Fall has been highly favorable for stock, and the output of the creameries is holding up to larger propor tions than ever before at this season of the year. There is an almost unlimited amount -of high-grade creamery butter obtainable at 25c and 26c per pound, but, as usual, a few brands having an established trade are selling at Zllbc This figure cannot be regarded as a criterion of the market, for in a limited way 50c could be as easily secured as 27&C. EGGS Three carloads' of Eastern, eggs have reached Portland within the past 10 days, and more are on the way. These receipts, together with several hundred cases of Oregon cold-storage stock hanging over the market, have weakened prices at a time when the greatest strength Is usually shown. Oregon ranch eggs are stM held at about 28c, but may go lower. Cold-storage sells down as low as 20c Best Eastern, sometimes sold as fresh, move at 25c In single-case lots, and 23c and 24c In large quantities. POULTRY Receipts of chickens were enor mous yesterday, and, In fact, all klnd3 of poultry came In 'too freely for the good of prices. Some dealers, fearful of getting swamped before the week was over, sold out L round lots of .chickens as low as $2 50 and $3 per dozen. Geese were also a drug on the market on account of heavy supplies, and some very good coops were disposed of at $6 per dozen. Live turkeys In good order In soroo cases sold as high as 12c but the ordinary run of offerings went at 10c and lie. Dressed sold from lie f,or skinny and poorly dressed stock, up to 14c for choice. The market Is affected somewhat by the presence of large quantities of game. China, pheasants are sell ing at 5 per dozen, and ducks from $103 per dozen, and as they have not been obtainable heretofore, many are buvlng them In prefer ence to poultry. Bank Clearing;.

The principal char acteristic of today's stock market was t,he de creasing interest shown even by the. profes sional operators, "wha have had the" market practically to themselves for some time past. The fact that no further gold would go out to morrow beyond the $500,000 engaged yesterday afforded some relief .from the .feeling of de pression, there having been apprehension that the French 'steamer sailing tomorrow would carry away several million dollars. The" pro fessional bulls sought to stimulate this into a renewed movement for tho advance, and In this Intent, there was. large buying and active manipulation of a limited number of stocks at the hands of speculative pools. The grow ing evidence of a common purpose among the executives of Northwestern states to combat the purposes of the Northern Securities -Company, and to seek the aid of additional legisla tion for that purpose, had an unsettling effect upon sentiment. Much remains to be cleared k up resuming me actual organization ana oper ation of the settlement, which was the object of that company's formation. The public-is still absolutely uninformed as to what 'securities or consideration have passed by which the Union Pacific was allowed to share the control of the Burlington. If the balance of power in the Northwest is to be maintained only "by actual holdings In the Northern Securities Company, It is not clear how any of the, parties can afford to bring, to market Ihebare minority of the holdings, by Which It was calculated there would be a re lease of a part of the Immense capital which was locked up n the struggle for control. The transcontinental stocks generally ocntlnued td show depression, In spite ot the. efforts to get prices higher at other points. The local trac tions continued In large demand, but were Ir regular on occasional realising, and there was strength in the coalers, New Jersey Central, particularly, rising 6V4 an rumors of a coming Increase of dividend. The Vanderbllts devel oped marked strength at advances of 13 point People's Gas was forced down an ex treme 3& to 98 in the late dealings on tho news of the heavy appraisement for taxation fixed by the Illinois State Board of Equaliza tion. The American Loeomotlva stocks suf- P fered from realizing. Chicago, Indianapolis and st, Louis & Ban Francisco stocks were strong on npporta of good earnings. The money market was distinctly easier to day. Foreign exchange continued Arm, and the opinion Is still held that gold will go out on Saturday to London direct. Business In railroad bonds was not large and the price movement was K irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,295,000. United States old 4s advanced per cent on the last call.

The Rocky Moun- tain Industrial Sanitarium organized by Denver professional and business men last Spring, is now in successful opera tion. On a 10-acre tract Ave miles front Denver 15 or 20 patients - in the early stages of, consumption are under the plans of the promoters virtually taking care of themselves. The rules of the institution compel a continuous outdoor life to be maintained Summer and Winter. Kach patient is provided with a roomy tent, plenty of warm clothing and blankets and a small stove to be used only in extremely 4 -cold weather. - - Experience has proved that with proper food and clothing and a life in the open air and sunshine arti ficial heat Is unnecessary and becomes ab solutely "unbearable to the patients, who Without exception are gaining rapidly. Next Spring the ground will be plotted and everything needed at the sanitarium will be raised and sold to the commissary department at regular retail prices. It is' also the purpose to make the place so attractive that tUDercular patients of some means will be glad to avail them selves o Its advantages and contribute money instead of labor.
