COMMERCIAL AND FINANG1AL NEWS
Nothing new developed In the market situa
tion yesterday and business has again begun
to assume the end-of-the-montn appearance of
quietude. The weather has been more favor
able for farm work during the past lew days,
and this has kept fanners vaway from the
cities and towns, and contributed to a tempor
ary dullness. "Wheat Is very quiet, both as to
price and In the volume of the movement, nd
tho total sales for the past fortnight would
hardly make a shipload. Potatoes are still
coming In quite liberally, tho supply seeming
almost inexhaustible, but In spite of the Im
mense quantities that are being ehlpped, the
price Is holding up much better than In former
seasons. Onions are also selling In large
quantities and the price of good stock holds
up around ?2 per cental. The butter market,
after a. long period of strength. Is at last
showing signs of weakening, and best grades
of creamery arc more plentiful than at any
time this season. No cut has yet been made
in prices, but a reduction Is almost certain
before tho end of the week. Eggs aro steady
to firm, and chickens a little easier. Veal
and pork, under the-strs of heavy receipts,
are not doing so well. The wool market is
showing some signs of activity and there Is
considerable new crop contracting in hops.
The grocery market Is quiet, with no further
developments in the sugar troubles, but an
uneasy feeling In some circles that the bottom
has not jet been reached.
WHEAT Sales of wheat are few and far be
tween, and with such a dragging market it
Is a difficult matter to secure accurate quota
tions. Yesterday Walla "Walla was generally
quoted at 64 and 64 cents, but every dealer
making tho quotation expressed some doubt
about the chances of buying at that figure.
There is not enough demand to Induce buy
ers to force the price up to fancy figures, and
sellers will not let go at export values now
quoted. Buyers and sellers are farther apart
than they generally get, even toward tho fag
end of the season, when the wheat Is so nearly
sold out. Interest in the wheat situation is
now shifting from the old crop to that which
Is now coming along, and tho outlook 1c, on
the whole, quite favorable for another big
crop. The acreage is larger than ever be
fore, and in most localities where the wheat
was Winter-killed the reseeded lands are show
ing a very healthy growlh, which, with favor
able weather conditions, will turn off nearly
as well as the average Winter wheat crop.
Freights continue to drag and charters aro
rare. With such, a small amount of wheat
to be provided for and no certainty that this
will be shipped, there Is no Incentive for
chartering ships. There are two disengaged
vessels on spot, and If they could be secured
cheap enough, would probably bo taken up,
but the rate would need to be low in order to
enable exporters to buy wheat under present
circumstances. The Eastern market showed
some Improvement yesterday, but has a long
hard climb before it gets to the point from
which It began its recent break. Sentiment
in the East is more Inclined to bullishness
than It has been for a long time, this feel
ing being reflected somewhat in the following
Chicago advices received yesterday by Bolton
de Ruyter & Co.:
Wheat has had a 12c break In the past
few weeks, and has rallied about VAo from
bottom. The decline has put markets trlbu-
.!? t At,ant,c seaboard on an export basis,
although demand, except on weak spots. Is not
sharp. The whole Winter-wheat belt has had
most fpvorable weather, with general rains,
and on this weakness selling has come. The
wheat has generally changed hands and liqui
dation has been severe. At the moment the
situation seems a fairly steady one. While
European prospects are favorable, it Is as
sumed that European requirements will, until
a new crop, be fully equal to what they have
teen for months past. Surpluses on Pacific
coast and in other exporting countries have
been pretty well exhausted. The inference is
that if wheat Is wanted before another harvest
the wants must mainly be supplied from
markets tributary to the Atlantic seaboard
In this country. This visible la a fair average,
and stocks and reserves in warehouses are
small The movement from first hands was
very light. In tho last day or two speculative
operations have proceeded on the assumption
that prospects of the growing wheat crop were
at leact nominal on a greatly Increased acre
age. Recent advices from Southwest, notably
Kansas and Oklahoma, however, raise the
apprehension that some manifestation of this
proposed favorable situation must bo made.
Some of the advices from that quarter are ex
tremely bad. The next few days ought to re
veal more clearly what the true conditions are
If the present tendency for tho worst Is main
tained, higher prices are likely. In any event
the market having had a severe break, the
prices being pretty flatly, on an export basin
declines from this point are likely to be
slow.
HOPS-After a slight lull in new-crop hop
contracting, a fresh start has apparently been
made, and within the past few days quite
a number of the contracts have been made
on the basis of 12 cents, which Is the best
price reported this season. Some dealers aro
Inclined to hold off. and express fear that
the element of chance Is too great at such
rates, but the fact remains that there has
been an unusually large amount of new-crop
contracting done. There Is nothing doing In
the local market In old crop. The situation
in New York is thus reviewed by the Journal
of Commerce, under date of March 20:
Contrary to the expectations of many of
the trade, there has been a decided Improve
ment in the demand from brewers In the local
market. It was learned that within the past
few days they have purchased several hundred
f k . Vl ?opF' come Put"ns the amount
at about 00 bales, and the prices paid were on
the basis of 18c for choice. At the close
or the range of prices quoted for choice
state was 17HlSc. an advance of uc per
pound. Pacifies, however, were reported not
S fl,,2,.a,!.ftatcs &na were 1uoted on the basis
of li18c for choice. Reflecting the Im
proved demand from brewers, dealers have been
better buyers of state hops, and an additional
6ale was reported made In Northern New York
of 80 bales prime at 16c net to the grower
also, 150 bales old olds, at 4c. The Watervllle
Times, of March 18. says of the Watervllle hop
market: "Since the sale of the 82-bale lot
of T. D. King, last week, about 17c. Samuel
Maine, of Brookfleld. has sold 27 bales. Tho
price paid for the last lot was probably 17c,
though the parties concerned refused to say
Just what It was).
FRUIT The season has drifted around to a
stage where the keeping qualities of apples
are beginning to be appreciated, and fancy
Hood River and Southern Oregon apple are in
demand at $2 per box. There is still a con
siderable quantity of medium to low grade
fruit on the market that sells down as low as
$1 per box, but it is so late In thr season that
most anything that looks like an 'apple will
sell for fl per box. Oranges and lemons are
firm and higher. Receipts havo been pretty
heavy, and stocks are so large here that the
firmness which has been so pronounced in
California is not felt to its fullest extent
in this market. Bananas are now coming along
with aomo seasonable' regularity, and tho
market seems to absorb the two three cars per
week which are received, without difficulty.
POTATOES-The last steamer sailing from
San Francisco took out 10,300 sacks of potatoes
and left on the dock over 6000 sacks, which
will be crowded in with the regular install
ment which is scheduled for the steamer sail
ing tomorrow. These consignments, together
with a few thousand sacks going out of Coos
Bay by every steamer, have tested the strength
of Jhe San Francisco market pretty close to
the limit, but there has been no recent break,
and yesterday $1 25 and ?1 30 was paid in
this city for best Burbanks. A considerable
quantity of the offerings now coming to hand
have been touched by the frost sufficiently to
discolor them but not to changp their out
ward appearance. The stock, of course, will
not bring- best figures, and is the cause of
considerable wrangling by sellers who ex
pect to get tho top quotations for their offer
ings. Sweet potatoes are firm and best stock
cells at f2 50 and $2 75 per cental. Onions
are steady, but prices show no Improvement,
Some of the fancy selects with a reputation
6ell abqve 2, but the average run of offerings
sells around SI 75 per cental.
BUTTER Considerable of the strength that
was so pronounced in the butter market re
cently has oozed out within the past weelj, and
(t is almost a certainty that prices will be
cut within a few days. The California
market has weakened to such an extent that It
can now prevent high prices In the North,
and in order to prevent a blockade and general
demoralisation of prices, dealers will at once
begin lowering prices in accordance with the
demands of the season. While receipts of
fancy will sell up to 10c and 17c per pound,
so much of the store butter which comes in
is unfit for much of anything but skid greaso
that the top figure is hardly a reliable quota
tion. EGGS The egg market yesterday showed but
little change from that of the day previous.
A few dealers were demanding and receiving
15 cents for single-case lots, but at the same
time there were plenty of eggs obtainable at
14 and 14 He, and -some dealers held very heavy
stocks, for which they were unable to secure
more than He per dozen. Buyers and sellers
alike have a peculiar attitude regarding the
prices of certain commodities, and an egg
quotation that would be satisfactory to any
or all parties concerned would be a curiosity.
POULTRY Chickens are not doing as well as
they were last week, but are still in very
good demand, and $6 Is considered a fair
price for best coops of old hens, with mixed
and Springs selling down as low as .$3 50 and
$4, very ordinary stock bringing the lowest
figure. A few coops of "peepers." and some
a little older than peepers, have been re
ceived, and as usual with the first of the
season, they have brought fancy prices, some
of them selling up to $6 per dozen, or not
far from their weight In silver. ' Ducks
and geese are neglected and quotations are, to
a considerable extent, nominal. There will
be but little demand for turkeys from now on,
and they are quiet at quotations.

IfBW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Tradlngr Wasi Verr DhII and All of a
Professional Nature.
NEW YORK. March 26. Today's stock
market was a very dull and professional af
fair. Colorado Fuel and Amalgamtcd Cop
per absorbed between them & large propor
tion of the day's dealings from the opening
to the close. The first-named ranged up to
2 over last night, and the Copper stock to
H4. Colorado Fuel lost the greater part of
the gain on realizing during the latter part
of the day, but Amalgamated retained all but
a small fraction. Its subsldary stock was also
firm at or about last night's price, notwith
standing the Indefinite postponement -from yes
terday of the Anaconda dividend meeting. The
demand was attributed to a short Interest,
which sought to take advantage, of discourag
ing news to cover their short contracts. The
stock was not offered as freely as the bears
had anticipated. Thcro were no new de
velopments in Colorado Fuel, and the large
transactions in the stock were by the same
brokers as those recently active In it. The
preferred made an 'opening Jump of 6 points,
relapsed 7 and rallied 4. Tennessee Coal was
firm In sympathy, but tho other active stocks
were neglected and heavy. American Tele
phone rose 4 and North American rallied 3
over last night. Minneapolis. St. Paul and
Sault Ste. Marie was At one time up 4 points.
There was some firmness in one -or two of the
prominent railroad stocks, but the tendency
of the general list was lower.
The factors influencing the market were
practically the same a$ those of yesterday.
The threat of a strike by the anthracite min
ers was a wide-spread influence. The coalers
themselves, as a rule, were only slightly af
fected by the labor situation, but Lackawanna
made a violent break of 4fc. The coming
adjournment of the exchange from Thursday
to Monday had the usual effect of causing a
closing up of contracts. There is some fear
that the demand in tho loan market to carry
over stocks from Thursday until Monday will
cause a flurry in call loan rates tomorrow.
There is a possibility also that a poor bank
statement will be published in the interim.
The possible breaking off of ngotlations for
pcaco in South Africa before trading Is re
sumed was taken account of, as well as
tho apparent approach of the end of tho ca
reer of Cecil Rhodes, which waa In fadt re
ported on the exchange lato in the day. The
market closed easy.
There was a yielding tendency to tho prices
of bonds, in sympathy with stocks. Total sales,
par t-alue. $2,500,000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on the last call.

Advances in Wheat and Cora at Chl-caare-iLatter
Rales Cereals.
CHICAGO. March 26. Corn strength easily
ruled all grains today, and the corn pit ltd
In activity. At the start, cables were higher,
as oompared to lower prices here yesterday.
There was some early selling oa wheat in
fluence, but sooa there started a bull move
ment in July corn that caused a sharp upturn
In aft corn options. Some Importance was
attached to a bull campaign to be worked In
July corn. Other bull factors were the Im
proved cash corn situation, and the later up
turn in wheat. May closed lc higher, at 50
e59c
Aside from the corn Influence, wheat had
good reasons of its own to advance prices.
Opening conditions,, such as cables. and small
receipts, worked for fair early advances, but
the "crop-killer" once .more, became an active
factor. Word waa received,, from the presi
dent of the Kansas & Oklahoma Gralndealers'
Association, stating that Kansas would harvest
only 60 per cent and Oklahoma only 40 per
cent of a crop. At the advance, there was
liberal offering, but some of the big men
bought, corn exerted its influence and shorts
covered, sending prices up."
Profit taking, toward the close, caused a re
action. May started M to c higher, at 720
72c eased to 72c, recovered to 7S73c
and closed firm, May e higher, at 7Zc
There was only a moderate trade in oats, but
the tono ruled firm with other grains. May
closed c up, at 62c

.MILLERS' FEDERATION.
Final Steps In Its Formation Taken
at Chicago.
CHICAGO. March 25. The final steps In
the formation of the National Millers
Federation, representing a total capital
of 400,000,000 and an annual flour output
of 100.000,000" barrels, were taken at a
meeting held hero today. The federation
Is the national organization of the state
associations, and in addition It will include
the .National Millera' Association and the
National "Winter Wheat Millers' Associa
tion. Officers of both theec organizations
have been prominent In organizing the
new federation. At today's mcctin- the
following officers were elected:
President. Barney A. Eckhart. Chicago;
first -vice-president, Henry L. Little, Min
neapolis; second vice-president, ex-Governor
B. O. Stannard. Missouri; treasurer,
W: & Elite, St. Louis. A board of direc
tors, which Includes the officers, was also
elected. The first annual meeting will
bo held In Chicago, Juno 11, 1902.
Presldant Eckhart declared the federa
tion was not a combination for tho con
trol of prices, but for the purpose of
furthering mutual interests and correct
ing abuses, which he said had grown up
during the past 20 years. Resolutions were
adopted indorsing the legislative move
ments to give the Interstate commerce
commission authority to enforce Its rul
ings and to correct tho action of ocean
steamship companies nnd railroads In the
alleged discrimination In freight rates
against flour In favor of wheat. The Nel
son amendment to the Hartcr rtct. In def
erence to the London Inndlng clause to
prevent the steamship companies from dis
criminating against American flour, was
indorsed. Mr. Eckhart explained that
American flour had to pay an unjustly
high dockage rate at the London wharves.
In his address President Eckhart de
clared that the new federation should
endeavor to extend the flour market by
diplomatic commercial reciprocity treaties
or otherwise.
