THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1901. 11 COMMERCIAL AND Receipts of produce were 'ery heavy yes terday, but the market seemed to absorb every? thing that came along without any material decline in prices. Front-street commission 2iouses are making great efforts to keep the poultry market well cleaned up. In order to avoid anything like sacrifice price?. If there should be a rush at the last moment. In this purpose they have been quite fortunate thus far. and there was very little unsold stock on the street yesterday. Most of the Eastern tur keys that came In early were sold yesterday -at 12Hc They were of very fine grade, and .some dealers think better prices might have been secured later. Chickens sold low, but cleaned up, a single firm selling over 150 doren yesterday. Prices went as low as c a pound and $'J 25 pr dozen. Ducks sold well, but geese, as usual, were a drug on the mar ket. General trade was reported good In all lines, with no changes In prices. Hank Clearing. Clearings.

The wheat market was tame and uninter esting yesterday, with no business reported. Quotations are nominally unchanged. The for eign markets are showing no signs of life, and are not expected to until after the holidays. Freights are weaker, but In the absence of any business it Is difficult io understand ex actly what a ship would be worth. Steamers are offering at higher prices, but with no tak ers. The Oriental Hour trade is In an unsat isfactory condition, and this fact prevents millers making any sjecial effort to secure wheat without they can get it at an export value. Six grain-carriers have arrived In the river within th past 48 hours, and have sup plied the Immediate needs of shippers. Wheat A alia Walla, 595'J; blucstem, COc: Valley. 50c.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. AxnnlKnnmtcil Copper Had a Wild Fluctuation of Prices. NEW YORK. Dec. 19. Amalgamated Cop per amost broke Stock Exchange records for erratic fluctuations today. So great was the uncertainty over the action to be taken by the directors on the dividend, and the con sequent effect on the market, that dealings In other stocks than Amalgamated Copper were practically suspended. The stock broke several times during the morning, going down immedlatey after the opening to 63S. which wiped out the sudden gain at the close yes terday. From that point It began an irregu lar recovery, with frequent halls and reactions. FINANCIAL NEWS A atory got afloat that the full 1 per cent dividend was to be declared by the directory to be paid in scrip, for such proportion as was represented by the dividends of subsidiary cam panic which have been tied up by injunction. The outstanding short Interest became fright ened at this rumor and bought to cover. The stock touched C9 before the directors had as sembled at the dividend meeting. It was only a few minutes after tho hour of assembling when the price slumped to 04 under a torrent of offers. The rebound was to 07. and the stock was then tended to equilibrium and closed with a net loss of . The action on the dividend had not been announced when the market closed. The further cut In price of raw copper was not unexpected, and there are pre dictions that the level has not yet been reached to attract large buying orders. The announce ment of the sut did not Interrupt the upward course of Amalgamated Copper which was then In progress. The undertone of the general mar ket was Arm. but there were sharp declines In several leading stocks when the cut In cop per was announced, and also when Amal gamated Copper commenced Its wild movement In the last half hour. Very few stocks attained a movement of as much as a point in cither direction from last night's close. The tone of the coalers was good, and there was some talk of a coming advance In the price of anthracite. There was no apparent uneasiness over the money situa tion, and the opinion Is general that the out ward movement of gold for the year has come to an end. The market closed Irregular and very dull. Railroad bonds were dull and steady. Total sales, par value, $2,145,000. United States 3s, coupon, and 5s, coupon, advanced U. and the old 4s, coupon, declined -& per cent on the last call.

Wheat ranged over 4c. with several ups and downs, and, though there was a slight early firmness based on small receipts and scanty offerings, the dull ness made traders timorous. Early cables were weak, but not so far depressed as had been expected. Cash business was small. The railroad tie-up curtailed receipts, but reports had It that the cold weather was not hurting crops. The session was bereft of any specu lative Interest. May opened a shade lower to a shade higher at 79794c, touched 79ic sagged off to 794Jr79Hc, and closed steady a shade lower at 7Uc Corn had much the same experience as wheat, though it acted stubborn against a bearish movement. Short receipts here and news from Kansas that the cold weather necessitated feeding corn to stock, regardless of irrico, buoyed opening prices during the morning. In tho afternoon there was a setback, and the market became very dull. May closed steady. 4c lower, at 44c Provisions were weak and heavy under the influence of a large run of hog. Trade was small. May pork closed 174c down, lard 124c lower, and ribs 7410c off- The leading future ranged as follows: WHEAT. Opening. Highest. Lowest.

The Iron Trade Re new, discussing market conditions this week, says: Next to the continued heavy demand greater than ever known In December the feature of the situation Is the effort of strong interests to keep prices within bounds. Not only Is this seen In the virtual decision to maintain thw year's basis on old range Lake Superior ore, and as noted In this column two weeks ago. though no meeting of the ore In terests will be held until early In January, but In the announced attitude of the United States Steel Corporation In favor of the main tenance of prices on ore, Bessemer plg-lron, structural materials and rails. Whllo It Is true the Steel Corporation Is a buyer of Bessemer Iron, It could easily afford to pay 50 cents a ton additional for the small amount of thl metal It buys, for the effect the establishment of the higher base would have upon finished material prices If it were disposed to advance the latter. There has bet-n some discussion of a pro posal to advance the rail price to $30, but as with structural material, the Steel Corpora tion Is reported to be opposed to such a step. The chief matter of comment throughout tho trad Is the amount of. the bulness going on sellers books In tho closing month of the year. The attitude of buyers ha been changed by tho developments of the past two months. While heavy contracting has been going on since arly October, not until recer'ly has there appeared any evidence that buyers were other wise than complnlsant on the matter of de liveries In the first half of 1902. Th Metnl Mnrt.'tets. NEW YORK. Dec 10. Another cut In cop per prices was announced today by the prin cipal concerns, and the market was weak and unettled all day. There was no business re ported, as traders believe the reduction has not reached Its limit. The quotation at the close was $13 for Lake Superior. 512 S74 for elec trolytic and $12 50 for castings. The Tendon market was alo depressed, again, and made new low records; thus spot was quoted at 49 10s. The London exchange closed at noon out of respect for Its chairman. Mr. Kekewlch. whow on committed suicide, but during the morning the trading was particularly active. Tin suffered another set-back both at home and "abroad, owing to a lack of speculative support nnd under liquidation. The close at London found the market weak and 1 lower, spot being quoted at 100 10s and futures at 103. Here the market was unsettled and weak, with spot quoted at $23 70323 95. Lead at London was reduced 2s Od to 10 5d, while the local market was featureless at $4. Spelter remained Inactive and nominally un changed at New York and at London. clolns at $4 45 and 17, respectively. Iron was again quiet, but held steady.

County School Superintendent Robinson has lately Introduced Into the schools of Multnomah County a system of monthly reports, giving statistical information In regard to enrollment, attendance, tardi ness, etc., at the end of each month. These reports furnish dellnlte Information in re gard to the condition of the schdols each month, while the old plan of reports af forded no such information until the end of the year, thus rendering It impractica ble to make any change In conditions shown to be unsatisfactory during the school year. The School Boards and the teachers In the various districts In the county are al ready taking a lively interest In the com parative condition of their schools, as shown by these reports, and pupils are beginning to recognize that they arc parts of a large rorelated system, and not an isolated community. Each month the Superintendent sends out. In connection with the blanks for reports, questions for special information, and these reports bring the teachers into direct communication with the Superin tendent once a month, which is benellclal to all concerned. In Multnomah County, outside of Port land, there are 5S school districts, in each of which there is a school, and 104 teach ers employed. The report3 show that nt the close of the last school month there were 2C00 pupils belonging to the schools in these districts. The number of teachers In the various schools differs greatly, running from one In outlying districts, up to 11 at Mount Tabor. Bridal Veil and Latoruell dis tricts each have two schools, ono on the lowlands along tho Columbia, and one on the top of the mountain above. Superintendent Robinson yesterday visit ed the new district, on the Base Line road, four miles from Falrvlew, known as Rockwcod. The taxpayers there have litted up the lower part of a hall for school purposes, and have furnished It In good style to accommodate the children until a school building can be provided, and an excellent school is in operation there. A summary of the last monthly report of the teachers shows an enroll ment of 2936 pupils outside of the city. Of this number 2591 are now in attend ance. Urged Delegates to "Withdraw. NEW YORK, Dec. 19. According to the Buenos Ayres correspondent of the Her ald, the Prenza editorially approves of the decision of the Argentine delegates to withdraw from the Pan-American Con gress.

It is said that Lord Rothschild, who is the official banker of Chile, has received assuring j mspatencs irom. me unuean uovern ment. AT THE HOTELS. THE PORTLAND. Oeo P Bulen. Tacoma W W Plnder.
