Newspaper Page Text' ' THE MORNING' OBEGONIAN. FBlDAY, MAKCH 28, 1902. IS COMMERCIAL AND A decline in butter and an advance la Jard were about tbo only changes noted In the -wholesale markets yesterday. There haa been an active war In lard and provisions In Puget Sound territory for the past few days, and for a time It Teas thought that it -would reach thta territory. The advance In lard, however, pre cludes the possibility of any warfare among the local provision dealers for the present, at least. Butter, which, na withstood all at- tempts at hammering prices for a long time, was cut yesterday to 55c, and. from the rat at which receipts are pouring In, a further cut will soon follow. Poultry receipts were not very, heavy yesterday, but the receipts of the day previous were liberal enough to prevent any advance in prices. Receipts of potatoes were again heavy, but the price was well maintained. Groceries show no change, and sugar Is reported to be steadying up prepara tory to an advance. .Czarnlkow, McDougall & Co.. in their New York circular of March 22, have the following regarding sugar: "The vital question of beet sowings must re main unanswered for six weeks longer, but all estimates Indicate a reduction of from 10 per cent to 15 per cent. Should the reduction Teach the latter figure, the European beet reduction of 1002-1003 will be fully 1,000.000 tons less than it was In the past campaign, and for the health of the su.r markets throughout the world It is to be uoped that this will prove to be tho case. Low prices for sugar compel the factories to give low prices for roots, and this should cause the farmers to turn their atten tion to other crops. Notwithstanding this week's large receipts, there has been a good demand for sugars on the spot, and a still bet ter one for sugars for shipment, and it Is now Impossible to buy sugars for shipment at any where near our parity. Last eales of Cubas in clude very nearly all the sugars now afloat from ports whero want of warehouse facilities prevent holding, and there is, therefore, little sugar from Cuba to come immediately upon the market. Our market closes firm, with an upward tendency, owing to the scarcity of offerings. A further advance Is looked for, particularly as Cuba sugars are now still more likely to be kept back, seeing that the caucus voted to recommend a reciprocal treaty with Cuba, giving hr a reduction of 20 per cent on the existing duties, this treaty to remain in force till December, 1003. Being now sure that, sooner or later, there will bo a reduction on the duties on Cuban sugars, the hopes of the Cuban holders have been so Strengthened that there Is even less disposition than before to accept present prices, notwithstanding that stocks in Cuba arc over 330,000 tons. Java refrains from offering any new-crop sugars, as prires In the island are much above this mar ket, nor is there any pressure to sell the bal ance of old crop. Egypt, too, continues hold ing her crop for higher prices than those now ruling. Cuba. The market In Cuba remains firm, with plenty of buyers at prices much higher than those ruling here. Very little land has been prepared for planting this Spring, and unless some favorable decision Is speedily arrived at In Washington, it is feared that the next crop will not be larger than the present one."

The Eastern market went off with a rush yes terday. Chicago closing lc under Wednesday's close, and all other markets in this country showing a panicky feeling. Fine weather and attendant excellent crop prospects are respon sible for the weakness, but underlying all of the bearish influences remains the fact that there is very little wheat left in the United States, and that Europe is largely dependent on this country for supplies for several months yet. In the local market, quotations are of little value, as It Is Impossible to buy whfat on anything like an export basis. A nominal quotation on "Walla Walla Is about 04c, and G5c would possibly be paid, if parties were in need of wheat, but it would require at least 6Cc to dislodge much of the cereal. No new trans actions In freights were reported yesterday, and quotations are steady around 25s for sailers. It Is reported that Cd more has been bid for May loading, but nothing has been fixed at that figure. Considerable new-crop tonnage Is offering, but it Is held at higher rate3 than exporters care to pay. The Cincinnati Price Current, In reviewing its crop correspondence for the week ending last Saturday, says: "Weather conditions have been changeable the past week. Several days of warm, Spring like weather over the Winter-wheat section started the wheat to 'green up,' and led some correspondents In the Ohio Valley to report the crop In better condition than previously ex pected. Then a few days of cold, freezing weather extended over the wheat belt, which caused some apprehension; and while It cer tainly has done the crop no good, there is little evidence that essential harm has resulted. A week or two of warm weather will probably tell the tale. There Is no doubt but that Kan sas has 'suffered materially by drouth, and while It Is too early to make reliable estimates. It does not seem likely that that State will have more than three-fourths of a full crop. In the Eastern wheat states, that Is, east of the Mississippi River, the -eariy-sown wheat Is In better condition than the late sown, while in the Western States It is the early sown and the soft varieties that are most hurt. The weather Is now turning milder and more favor able for the wheat. Taking the situation as a whole, it may still be regarded as fairly good no better than heretofore, and possibly moder ately less favorable. "Spring work on the farm has begun In ear nest. Oats seeding Is progressing favorably, and plowing for corn and potatoes is in active operation. Most reports state that the ground is in good or fine condition. While thero is about as much disposition reported to sell wheat as to hold it, the movement appears to be only moderate. Tho marketing of corn and oats continues rather light."

Decline In Wheat at Chlcnjco, Wltk the Clone Very Wcnlc. CHICAGO. March 27. Traders who ran to cover yestcrdt-y on the reports of crop damage In Winter wheat had their fears allayed soon after the opening hour. Only so long as com held Arm did wheat keep Its opening strength. Rains were reported over the entire Western crop, and the weather was too ml!d not to be taken notice of. Statisticians reported the growing crop as good as, if not better, than at first expected. Whon corn declined, the in fluence of the weather was also felt to lt full extent, and wheat declined rapidly. Liquida tion and stop-loss orders added to the decline, and bears took control. May wheat 0cned H0c higher, at 7307314c, and held there for some time. The depression took May to 71 Vie, and In spite of liberal covering of short ac counts late In the day, the close was very weak, May l01Hc lower, at 71X71ttc Considerable strength was manifested in corn. There was persistent selling of corn bj big traders, especially by the crowd that was sup posed to be trying to corner July options, but prices held fairly well. May closed easy, &c lower, at S9!40599c Oats had some strength early, under the in fluence of corn. Liberal offerings and the lato weakness In wheat and corn caused a weak market, and May closed He off, at 42 He The leading futures ranged an follows: . W.HEAT. Opening. Highest. Lowest.

Feverish and Erratic Speculation In Colorado Fael. NEW YORK. March 27. The feverish and erratic speculation In Colorado Fuel occupied the largest share of attention on the Stock Exchange today. The violent drop of 64 in the price of this stock was alleged to be due to the desire of the members of the pool to shake off a weak following preliminary to a renewed advance in tho stock. A more logical explana tion was found In the admission to the ctock exchange list, for the first time today, of the convertible bonds of the company. There has been a very active market on arbitrage for these bonds on the curb foreome time, due to the fact that they were considerably lower In price than the stock was quoted on the ex change. The operation consisted in buying of the bonds on the curb and selling on the stock exchange. It was necessary to borrow stock for delivery until today, when the convertible bonds became a good delivery against the tale of the stock, under the ruling of the exchange. Next to Colorado Fuel, the greatest activity was in Amalgamated Copper, for which there was an active demand. In which brokers usu ally employed by Inside interests were con spicuous. The movement was believed to have been directed against the short interest. The stock l03t most of Its gains, and Colorado Fuel recovered a good part of its loss, although it was near the lowest point at the close. An active demand for Sugar sprang up late In. the day, apparently based on the advance in the price of all grades of refined sugar. The ami cable course of negotiations between the in thraclte miners and the operators Induced a covering movement in the coalers, and lAused general advances throughout the group. The continued calmness In the money market while the demand was being made to carry over until Monday next relieved apprehension of a flurry. The lata rally In the market caused a recovery In the stocks which had been heavy early In the day, and wiped out moat of the losses. An active demand for Green Bay & Western bonds was the feature of that market. Total sales, par value. $4,610,000. i Closing Stock Quotations. sx DESCRIPTION.

The Commercial Ad vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock market opened quiet, and then grew cheerful in the hope of definite peace news from South Africa after Easter. The death of Cecil Rhodes proves to have been fully discounted. Chartered Shares opened at 3 7-10 and closed at 3 11-10, and mines are generally bright, as It is understood that the Interests of Mr. Rhodes will be looked after by a pow erful syndicate.

The Iron Trade Review, discussing trade conditions in Its cur rent issue, eays: "So much has been done in Iron and steel for 1002 that heavy buying movements are.no long- Downing, Hopkins & Co.

There is still enough busi ness ahead to make the changes In prices that may yet become a matter of moment to many consumers, but on the bulk of their wants con sumers know what their cost will be, nd whatever adv&aoes may come, the middle man, rather than the mills, will be the gatnetv- "The pig Iron situation still has the quieter aspect that has distinguished It during March than, fromhat of February. A meeting of several of the Southern producers was held at New York last week, and It was agreed that there should be no advance from the schedule price of $12 for No. 2 foundry Iron. As a mat ter of fact, little iron Is being s6ld at this fig ure. In Eastern markets, where most consum ers seem not to have covered as completely as those la Central and Western territory, there Is a considerable demand, and both Northern and Southern furnace with iron to offer for the next six months are getting prices equiva lent to an Alabama basis of $14 for No. 2 foundry. We hear of. a 15,000-ton sale at this figure. In Central Western markets Northern sellers of foundry Iron and some Southern sell ers are getting considerable premiums for iron for second and third quarter delivery, while $17 50 at Northern furnaces Is now the usual basis tor deliveries at N6. 2 foundry In the lat ter part of the year. "Basic and forge Irons have been in demand. Virginia basic has been taken in considerable lots. Gray forge has sold at $18, Pittsburg, and this advance, as well as the advance in scrap, which has become more difficult to get, has led to a higher level for bar Iron, $1 80, Pittsburg, being maintained by one important producer, while another Is still selling at $1 70. "The recent advance In steel bars to $1 00, which will apply to large lots after April 1, may be accompanied. It Is intimated, by an ad vance to $1 67 or $1 70, Pittsburg, on ordi nary lots. The heavy buying of bars In the past three weeks, and the large tonnage under negotiation to be closed before April 1, seems Xo have modified to some extent the conserva tive purpose of large Interests, and the market is creeping up in a way that has not been counted on."

Nlles Bank Fallare. NIIiES. Mich., March 27. By a decision Just handed down In Bay County, the cred itors of the defunct First National Bank of Niles -will profit to the extent of $100, 000. Several years ago a local company sold to farmers goods to be delivered by a Chicago house, taking the purchasers' notes. When the goods arrived It was claimed they were Inferior. Many of the farmers refused to receive them and al lowed their notca to go to protest. These notes were discounted by Charles A. Johnson, ex-cashier of the bank, now serving a prison sentence. Suits were begun against the dellnqent farmers be fore the bank's failure, and the latter combined to fight them. A test case was made of the one decided In Bay County against John Hyland for $135. Severe Blow to Cattlemen. FORT WORTH, Tex., March 27. The order Issued by United States Revenue In spector Cobb, at VInlta, I. T., which pre vents the Importation of Texas cattle Into the Cherokee Nation, will be a severe blow to, many cattlemen of this state who have already arranged to take thou sands of cattle into that nation for graz ing. It Is estimated that more than 500. 000 were to go to that country, beginning next month. The Santa Fe was to han dle nearly 200.000 head alone. The stockmen of Texas .will be heavy losers because of this ruling, aa It will neccesltate their taking- cattle to other pastures, provided they can be had. which Is a mooted question, as most available lease lands have already been taken.
