THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBEE 18, 1901. lr COMMERCIAL AND The local market was devoid of features of i special interest yesterday. There was a good trade In nearly all lines, but no change or Im portance In prices. More firmness Is noticeable In potatoes, and the California demand Is In creasing quite materially, the steamer sailing tonight taking out over 5000 sacks. Prices have stiffened up so that for a very fancy article as high as $1 10 per cental is possible. Most of the offerings, however, go at 856350 per cental. Onions are quite firm, with some prospects for an advance. There is an abund ance of apples, and some very good stock Is foiling as low as 50c per box. Oregon -ggs came In plentifully again yesterday, and tne price is weakening. Poultry is wavering, with dealers making vain efforts to accurately fore cast the supply and demand next week- Re cclrts are light. Grocery trade was active, especially In holiday luxuries.

The Eastern wrc r.t markets were a shade bet ter yesterday, bui the foreign market showed some of the la63ltude that Is always In evidence as the holiday season approaches. Locally, there was nothing doing, and quotations are nominally unchanged. The delayed fleet of grain ships Is still outside the river, and until some of them arrive to clear the docks, ex jorters are not inclined to force matters. Freights ure easier, and a small March thip was reported offering yesterday, at 33s 9d. The Fulwood on spot Is Etill offering for busi ness, but will hardly secure as good a rate as she has refused, and her owners will probably follcw the usual plan, and wait until freights strike the bottom of the market before they ac cept any buMness for her.

Firmer Undertone, With N'otable Gains In Sonic Prominent Stocks. NEW YORK. Dec 17. The undertone of the stock market was decidedly firmer today, grow ing In strength as the day progressed, and the closing was fairly strong, with notable net gains in a number of prominent stocks. Tho speculation was almost entirely professional, and was repressed In its nature, with a dispo sition to caution about encroaching on the lim ited money supplies. Amalgamated Copper maintained Its dominant Influence on the mar- ket, and Its Incessant fluctuations had some FINANCIAL NEWS sympathetic Influence, but the influence was more marked on the upward range of prices, and the gains established In the general mar ket were yielded stubbornly when Amalgamated Copper reacted. That stock touched GOV soon after the opening, a decline from yesterday's closing and record low level of Cl5- The raw copper market in London was re ported weak, and shares of copper companies everywhere -were depressed. Some violent de clines were reported from the Boston stock ex change. Opinion as to the next dividend con tinued pessimistic, the most favorable forecasts of Thursday's action naming a 1 per cent divi dend. The recovery In the stock was apparent ly based on the rally In the raw copper market in London. Tnls rally extended further In fu tures, which were also more largely dealt in than in spot, thus Increasing the premium on future deliveries of copper which developed yes terday for the first time In almost threo . months. Amalgamated touched G3H. and after numerous fluctuations below that point closed at G3. a net gain of 1. The money market was very quiet, reflecting the cautious tone of the speculation. Call loans ruled at C per cent until late In the day, when the placing of a residue carried the rate lowar. j Sterling exchange was called strong, but for eign bankers express the opinion mat mere is no likelihood of further gold going out before January 1. The transcontinental stocks were prominent for strength, and apparently thrived on the passage of the Isthmian canal treaty. Arguments for a permanent Injunction in a suit preferred, had no effect on them, and they rose In the face of somewhat alarming reports of rate-cutting among Western railroads included in the "community of interest." which were apparently intended for other than Wall-street consumption. Cuts in the price of petroleum, sugar, lead and linseed oil had a depressing effect on securities of companies in those trades. The Pressed Steel Car stocks were heavy on reports of an opposition company to be organized. A very active demand for tho Southern Railway stocks developed late in the day, and helped to make the close strong. A recovery of 4 points In Rubber Goods preferred and a further rite of 3 points in Long Island were features. The bond market was moderately active and irregular. Total sales. $2,030,000. United States coupon 3s advanced , and the refunding 2s per cent. Clof-lnp; Stock Quotations. r O RAILROADS.

Early conditions in tho wheat pit were conflicting. Cables were lower and outside markets weak. On the other hand. local and Northwestern receipts were small, and there was a fear that the cold weather and continued scarcity of cars would work against the movement. May opened a shade to c lower, at 79fc79c There was a little to be had, however, and on a small outside de mand and some short covering prices grad ually advanced. On a report that the Kansas crop would oe damaged by the cold, there was renewed activity late In the session. May sold up to 8O0SOc, closing firm, c higher, at 79 080c Corn was dull and narrow early, but later, when wheat began to develop strength, corn rose. May corn closed c higher, at CTHO" G7V4C.

Beginning today a new and reduced price for lead will go Into effect, says the Herald. At a meeting of. the executive committee of the American Smelting & Refining Company. It was decided to cut tho price of lead from 4.37c a pound to 4c This action was practically agreed upon at a recent conference of the lead producers of Ida ho und Utah In this city. The management of the smelting company have, therefore, decided to put the reduction Into effect as an experi ment to determine whether there will be a larger quantity sold at a smaller price than before. Officials of the company state that the producers felt It would be for their best In terest to make the reduction. "There is no parallel between the position of the smelting companies and the copper situa tion," says Chairman Guggenheim, In an In terview. "We ore millers of lead ore, while the Amalgamated Copper Company are miners. We are interested only so far as we desire a larger market. If the cut docs not stimulate a larger demand It is probable we will go back to the old prices." The proposition of the American Smelting & Refining Company in the lead business Is unique, as it la In charge practically of tho sale of desilverized lead in the United States. At a meeting of the directors today the regular dividend en the preferred stock will be de clared. The Metal Markets. NEW YORK, Dec 17. For the first time In many months there occurred a change in lead values, and at the close the market was weak and c lower. This decline was caused by the continued dullness in the market, and was made in order to bring out some business. Tho prlco Is now $4. At London lead was dull and unchanged ad quoted at 10 10s. Copper at London finished the day 2s Gd low er and unchanged for futures, after having at one time shown a loss of 10s. Trade was quiet. Spot was quoted at 50 7s Gd, and fu tures at 50 12s Gd. Here the market was dull, but had a weak undertone, with values In buyers' favor, on a basis of 15015c for Lake, and 15c for casting. The production of copper In the United States during November was 21.72S tons, making a total for the past 11 months of 245,456 tons, as compared with 240,- 6S3 tons for the same period last year. At London tin was quiet and closed easy and 10s off, with spot at 100 10s. and futures at 104 2s Cd. Locally, the market was without feature, and closed dull, at $24 50-325. Spelter was a shade higher at London, and closed at 17, while tho local market for that metal was dull at $4 45.

Maxwell, Chief Deputy County Assessor, has Just returned from a trip to San Francisco. While there he visited the Assessor's oftlce and gathered some Interesting Information. The cost of run ning the Assessor's ofllce in San Francisco is J2SO.O0O per year, which is nearly as much as the entire cost of the Multnomah County government. The total assessed value of nil property Is $413,000,000, and the total tax levy for all purposes is 15.562 mills. San Francisco City and County Is all one. and therefore there is no sep arate city tax levy, as in Portland: prop erty is supposed to be assessed at its full value, and everything is assessed, there being no exemption. During the time the principal part of the work is being done as many as 2S0 deputies are employed, and the lowest salary paid is $100 per month. Chief deputies, of which there are a number, each controlling a division or district, receive 5150 per month. A poll tax of $2 is collected annually from every male inhabitant between the ages of 21 and 60 years, and the statute exempting members of the National Guard and ex empt firemen from the payment of poll tax has been repealed. San Francisco also receives .a large revenue from licenses, and the state collects "wharfage tolls from the shipping. It will be seen that the assessed valua tion of property in Portland, in compari son, is very small. Portland, according to population. Is about one-third as large as San Francisco. The assessed value of the property In Multnomah County for 1901 is $40,000,000. and for 1900 it was only $30,000,000. In San Francisco it Is over 10 h times as much. THE SHORT CORD Li It a Flcctlns; Fnd, or Hnx It Coinc to Stnyf Most Portland people or their near rela tives burn wood for fuel, and many of them are complaining that when they buy a cord and pay for a cord, they do not get a corf. The dictionary definition of a cord Is "a solid measure equivalent to 12S cubic feet; a pile of wood or other coarse material eight feet long, four feet high and four feet broad." Some housekeepers say, more In sorrow than In anger, that It has now become a D Chamber of Commerce favorite diversion with some fuel dealers to dole out the short cord, which Is not a cord at all. and Is unworthy of a .foothold In a country where tall timber soars sky ward and grows stouter every year with out Irrigation. Not onlj do people say that the two-tier "cord" 13 palmed off on them in sawed wood, but that fn avoiding that pitfall that has become so well and unfavorably known, they have collided' with and had thrust upon them the supposed-to-be four foot cord that only measures 44 inches. It is hard to realize that the free-hearted Westerner would go into the fir forests of Oregon, whose lofty landscapes are en nobling, ami lay themselves liable to the nickname of "woodhawks" by gouging four Inches off the length of every stick I of coruwood they cut. But, sad to say, 'tis said 'tis done, and people of moderate means, who have to buy their wood in small quantities, are the sufferers. "When the state stepped in for pure food, Jt might have also stepped In for full fuel. DAILY CITY STATISTICS. Marrlnpre Licenses. H. L. Penry, 29. Snohomish County, Wash ington. E. A. Blanchard. 22.
