THE MOUSING OR'EGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, AEIL 16, 190'2. 11 GOMMERGIAL AND The fine -weather yesterday was too strong an Inducement to be resisted, and fanners re mained at home, attending to belated Spring work. Instead of coming to the city. This had the effect of shortening receipts of produc, and there was some firmness In prices. Eggs advanced lc, poultry was moving toward the best prices of the, season, and veal, which has beea In over-supply for a long time, was scarce, hut not quotably higher. Pork was In very light supply, and some sales were made as high as 7c. Potatoes held steady under very light receipts, and If the last shipment to Cal ifornia Is well received, a firm market may be expected from now on. Butter Is still very weak, notwithstanding decided strength In tho East. Oats are coming In less freely than they were a short time ago. but In the absence of a Government demand, there Is nothing to put up prices.' Mohair Is active at quotations, but the high prices paid earlier In the season are not obtainable. The 25c pool, which was sold early In the season, was a superior quality, and was worth a premium over ordinary offer ings at any time. Bank Clearing. Exchanges.

Flour, Etc Tho Eastern wheat markets took a sharp up turn at the close yesterday, and European mar kets were also shotting an Improvement. Lo cally, there Is but little change In the situa tion. The business of the season Is so nearly over that the buying In the aggregate Is of very moderate proportions, and at the rate in which wheat is now being dragged out, the accumulation of a cargo Is amatter of weeks. "With such a lifeless market, quotations are to a large extent nominal, and but little wheat could be bought, and but little Is wanted at anything above export values. Freights re main steady, but Inactive. Owners are appar ently firm In the belief that better rates will prevail later In the season, for they will not accept the rates now obtainable. If they suc ceed in securing the rates now asked for new crop ships. It will probably be more profitable to hold their vessels Idle until the new crop comes. If, however, the rates asked for new crop ships cannot easily be secured, they will be losers by waiting. Mclntyre & Marshall's grain letter, under date of April 9, says: "The return of our representative -who has been investigating the condition of the "Winter wheat crop in the Central iWest and Southwest enables ns to say that the Indicated crop Is not one to Justify the free selling that has so broken the market. Conditions In Kansas and Oklahoma are low In the iiroduclng counties, and probably 30 to 40 points under last sear's promise. In comparing with paBt crops It must not be overlooked thai an average yield In Kansas Is about 12& bushels per acre, whereas in past two crops the yield has been unusually large, and about 17 bushels. "We do not believe it correct to compare with phe nomenal figures, and for this reason question any estimate for Kansas In excess of 50,000,000. The chances are that the Kansas crop will not Teach this quantity. Missouri Is In good prom ise, end so Is the western part of Illinois. In diana is not so good as Ohio or Illinois. Ken tucky Is a little better than Indiana. None of these states are up to last years'condltlons." "Wheat Nominal; "Walla "Walla, 64&04ic; bluettem, CSgCCc; "Valley.

Early business In wheat was somewhat demoralized. The crowd did not know how to Interpret the new British duties, and early deals were a matter of guess work. Rains had fallen West. Northwestern receipts, however, were almost nothing, and the cash demand at Minneapolis was much Im proved, because nearly everything was report ed taken up. Corn was weakening, and as ad vices from London stated that buyers would pay the duties through August, and after that the duties would be figured In the contracts, the crowd turned sellers. May wheat opened unchanged to a shade higher, at 72T2c, and sold off to 72c It was assumed by the trade that export business would be upset for some time because of the British tax measure. After the weakness In corn wore away some what, and the fair weather reports were offset to some degree by crop-damage reports, heavy buying Bet in. Bradstreet's reported a de crease of 3,364,000 bushels In the visible sup ply. In the last half hour before the close May was shoved up 2c from its low price for the day, and brought 74c May closed strong, 11c higher, at 7374c Corn shorts were subjected to hard squeezing. There was plenty of stuff for sale early on the break of 2c at St. Louis. The market was nervous roost of the day, but the late bulge In wheat sent shorts to cover, and a sharp ad vanco resulted. May corn closed strong at 63c, c higher than yesterday's close. Oats were strong In sympathy with other grains; May closed firm. c higher, at 43c The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT.

Improvement Reported From Prin cipal Winter-Wheat States. WASHINGTON. April 15. The Weather Bu reau's weekly summary of crop conditions says: Although the temperature Bince March 1 has averaged about the normal over the northern portion of the country east of the Rocky Mountains, the season Is reported as backward In theso district, except In New England and New York, where It Is one to two weeks ear lier than the average. The season is also back ward In the Southern States. Warmer and dry weather is badly needed on the North Pacific Coast. Com-plantlng Is nearlng completion In the West Gulf States, and has made favorable progress In the South Atlantic and East Gulf districts and Tennessee. This work Is general In Kansas and Missouri. While the growth of Winter wheat has been slow, a very general Improvement is reported from the principal Winter wheat states, al though the crop has deteriorated slightly in Central and Northern Illinois, and la suffering for rain In Northern Missouri. The Pacific Winter wheat has made rapid growth In Cali fornia, and a heavy crop Is promised north of the Tehachapi, but In Oregon and Washington the condition of the crop Is less promising, more especially In tho last-named state, where a large area had to be resown. Spring wheat seeding Is well advanced In the southern portion of tho Spring wheat region, and a little has been sown In Southern North Dakota. A severe dust storm In Southern Minnesota on the 10th and 11th uncovered much of the sown grain. Warmth and moist ure are much needed for germlnatlpn. The fruit outlook, except for peaches In some districts, Is promising. SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS. SAN FRANCISCO, April 15. Wool-Prices have been withdrawn, as" the market Is bare, of offerings.

HONOLULU, April 8 (via San Fran cisco, April 1C.) B. M. Griffith, forester of the Agricultural Department at Wash ington, who stopped hero and. made an investigation of conditions on his way to the Philippines, has sent to Governor Dojo a report of his findings as to Ha waii. Griffith declares that cattle have done vast damage to the forests, killing the undergrowth so that the trees hav& died, with the result that the rainfall and water supplies have been much affected. He recommends that the high foredt areas be fenced and cattle kept out of them. Unless this Is done, he says that there will be a serious diminution of the water supply, as from bare land' the rain all runs into the sea; and he pre dicts also that tho rainfall will decrease. A forest Inspector and a force of rang ers are needed, says Griffith. Marie Leurquin, of Brussels, wrote to Miss Alice, Roosevelt on February 5, ask ing assistance In securing permission to come here and take up tho work of help ing lepers on Molokal. The letter was forwarded to Governor Dole by the In terior "Department at Washington, and the matter has been placed in the hands of the Board f Health. Tho sisters at the settlement and Bishop Gulstan are being communicated with. Miss Leur-' quin 'says that she wants to devote her services for the rest of her life to the unfortunates in the settlement. Professor Lyons, of the Government ob servatory, took some remarkable records of rainfall during the recent heavy storm. At Kukalau, J350 feet elevation, there were 62 inches pf rain during the first four days of March. At Nahlku, Maul. 1G00 feet above the sea, the rainfall for the month was 102 inches. Dr. I. E. Coffer, quarantine Officer, has ceased all fumigation of vessels or re strictions upon them here, declaring tho port free from any dangerous diseases and in a satisfactory health condition. 0 Nearly Burled Alive.
