COMMERCIAL AND
The regular Monday statistics were unusually
bearish yesterday, and the wheat markets suf
fered In consequence. Aside from this unpleas
ant feature of the trade situation, there was
sot much of interest in the wholesale district
yesterday. The receding of the wave of
strength which held the poultry market up last
week left a considerable quantity of stock
"beached." and as a result the market started
oft rather weak, with liberal ctocks on hand
end but few buyers. It is yet too early for
the Christmas trade, and the regular demand Is
now of very small proportions. Oregon eggs
came in more plentifully yesterday, and while
there was a slight weakness no changes were
-Ade in prices. Veal was scarce and a shade
.&!-.. and pork was plentiful and weak. Po
tatoes wore holding their own under lighter

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain. Klour, Etc.
The local wheat market yesterday was sick In
sympathy with other markets, and no business
was reported. The farmer seems to have an
abiding faith In better prices, and Is not selling
eo freely on the "dips" as he was earlier in
the season. Some exporters had their quota
tions down as low as SSHc, but 5i)c was the
ruling ligure for Walla Walla, with a possibil
ity of this ngure being "sprung" a little if any
business could be done. Freights were in the
same position as wheat, to far as activity wa3
concerned. There has been an advance in Han
Francisco, and owners apparently feel that
the proper thing to do under the circumstances
Is to try and squeeze another shilling or two
out of the Portland exporters. The latter think
differently, and there is, accordingly, nothing
doing.

XEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Bulls Hesitated About XaUInrc Any
Movement for an Advance.
NEW TORK. Dec 10. There was no renewal
of consequence of the pressure of liquidation in
the stock market today, but there was mani
fest hesitation about undertaking any opera
tions for an advance. A handful of stocks
were advanced by professional operators In a
seeming attempt to Induce a following and to
Influence the general market. The evidently
ctslcr condition of the money market encour
aged this movement, but the fear of a recur
rence of stringency and the unsettling In
fluence of the renewed weakness in Amalga
mated Copper discouraged Its extension. Amal
gamated Copper started downwards from the
FINANCIAL NEWS
opening, momentarily dropping to H above last
week's closing. It gravitated for the rest of
the day, v-lth only elight rallies, to the lowest
point, Cl, where It closed. The fluctuations
in the stock were not violent, and traders
described its action as a fall of Its own weight,
without any apparent artificial pressure. The
net loss Is 3. It is taken for granted that
the renewed decline foreshadows a reduction In
the dividend on Thursday, as the disbursement
of dividends by a subsidiary company Is tied
up by injunction. The rate of dividend Is ex
pected by speculators at all the way from 1 per
cent quarterly down to passing it entirely.
Fears are professed, also, that the cut in the
selling price of raw copper made last week Is a
preliminary to further cuts and to a war of
rates. It was worthy of remark that In Lon
don the price of futures closed higher than for
spot, for the first time since the first week In
October.
j The prnFpect of the unsettling influence of
mystery and uncertainty over the Amalga
mated dividend rate until Its actual declara
tion was sufficient in Itself to discourage activ
ity in the general market, as the strength of
the Saturday bank statement Is entirely dua
to the speculative liquidation which took pia;e
last week. To expand immediately the loan
account of the banks would threaten. It Is
feared, a recurrence of stringent money. Ru
roors of dangers narrowly averted last week
helped to prevent imprudence. Last week's
! loan contraction was well distributed among
j the banks, showing clearly that no large syn
J dlcate transactions was accountable for it. The
condition of the world's money markets was
easier all around today. The only stocks whose
strength waa conspicuous were New York Cen
tral. Manhattan, St. Louis and San Francisco,
the Iowa Centrals and Colorado Fuel.- Their
gains wrc all curtailed In sympathy with the
late weakness in Amalgamated Copper. The
changes generally are narrow.
The bond market was dull and Irregular. To
tal sales, par value, $1,735,000.

WHEAT AND STOCK BROKERS
Room 4, Ground Floor
A block of stock in a co-operative
offered to the general public at par. The whole plan of this company is
such that the public will eagerly subscribe for this ideal security and a
great many applications for stock will, therefore, have to be
rejected.
r
The next block will surely be ofTered at a premium far above
par. If you will write to us at once, we will keep you posted
and will help you to come in on the ground floor.
The company in question is investing One Million Dollars
in the stocks and bonds of one hundred or more sound and
reliable companies and institutions on the following plan :
250,000 DOLLARS in the purchase of stock in at least 25
carefully selected mining companies possessing properties that
are known to be of real value and merit, thus providing assets
of great speculative possibilities.
250,000 DOLLARS in the purchase of interest-bearing
bonds of at least twenty-five reliable" and thoroughly sound
corporations, thus providing assets of established and per
manent value.
250,000 DOLLARS in the purchase of stock in at least 35
different industrial companies and corporations, selected only
after the earning capacity, dividend prospects and probable
advance in market value of their stocks have been clearly
demonstrated.
250,000 DOLLARS in the purchase of stock in reliable,
well managed realty corporations in growing cities, such in
vestments being certain to double or even treble in value.
BY THIS PLAN the investor, acquiring stock in this co
operative purchasing company, gains absolute insurance
against loss of capital, and at the same time has the assurance
of enormous profits. Carrying all of your eggs in one basket
is dangerous. This plan, it might be said, provides a basket
for each egg. If one is dropped, the damage fs trifling ; yet
if only one out of a hundred or more proves "a golden egg,"
the profit is great. Truly this is in every way THE IDEAL
INVESTMENT, for it not only insures against loss, but it
guarantees profits on an unusually large scale. Address at
once for particulars

Wliy Abolish Commissions?
PORTLAND, Dec. 16.-(To the Editor.)
A correspondent of your paper this morn
lng- makes the above inquiry, and the an
Rwer to It Is n very plain and simple on
In our republican form of government 1
this country, composed of executive, le?
lslatlvc and judicial departments, commit
slons are a flfth wheel to the coach, an
therefore useless. Our city governmetv.
like every other government. Is the bet
and most effective with the simplest ma
chlnery. The Mayor, as its executive olL
cer. should be charged with the rcspon",
billty of enforcing all city ordinance
through officers appointed by him and rv
sponsible to him, which he cannot be i
such responsibility Is peddled arourt'
among various commissions. The aisump
tlon that a government by a commission
independent of and above the people, wil
be better than a government directly re.
sponsible to the people. Is one which may
be tolerated In a monarchy, but never
among a free people. The allusion of your
correspondent to the Water Commission
In support of his argument was Indeed
most unfortunate, for, while that com
mission has always been composed of hon
orable men. It made the costliest mistake
ever made in city affairs by digging
worthless reservoirs, and then It added
to the weight of that mistake by paying
a Callfornlan 55COO for telling It of such
mistake, which any Portlander, outside of
the commission, would have told It for Zd
cents. x.
