THE MORNING OBEGONIAN, MONDAY, "APKIL 21,' 1902.
GOMMERGIAL AND FINANCIAL NEWS
The volume of trade the past week has
been fair, and Its character has been satis
factory. General business conditions are good.
.Bank clearings continue large la the I
absence pf any special feature, like grain
sales, to swell them. Railroads and water
lines are loaded to their full capacity with
traffic. Charter rates for ships are rather
low, and there aro few disengaged vessels
on the Pacific -Coast. Rail rates are stable,
and a very heavy -volume of freight is mov
ing at tariff, this business being now cleaner
than It has been before In years. The mar
ket for the week has been devoid of features
but a healthy activity has prevailed la near
ly alt lines of commerce.
Grain has held firm throughout the week.
"Wheat has been steady in foreign markets,
but Chicago has shown material variations.
There was not enough movement in the local
field to give much -character to the market,
but local auotatlons were guided by Liver
pool rather than Chicago. There were a
few sales of cargoes afloat, but generally tho
trade had little life. At this time of the year
not much acth'lty Is expected In grain, and
the halting tendency is unusually marked this
Spring on account of the news from the wheat
regions. This Is a, critical period for the
Kansas hard wheat crop, and in other parts
of the jvboat area the prospect Is none too
good. Still, conditions are not yet settled, and
it may turn out that crops concerning wheh
there Is now much nervousness, will be all
right. It Is expected that the coming week
or 10 days will tell thefstory and decide the
course of the wheat market for some time.
Favorable weather will cause -a weakening In
price, while distinctly unfavorable, or even
a continuance of doubtful conditions, will
Bend prices up. The feeling Is pretty general,
however, that the market has been rather
optimistic, and that It -will require less ef
fort to push wheat up than would be re
Quired to depress prices.
Growers of the Northwest who still have
wheat are holding It for further advance.
They will not consider offers at present rates,
so strong Is the belief that tho coming crop
will be short and the price correspondingly
high. Even In the Northwest there Is no
probability that this year's wheat crop will
be so large as that of last year. Many fac
tors of uncertainty remain to be reckoned
with before the grain will reach maturity and
reports of dry weather In the Eastern wheat
fields Increases the bull feeling here. The sup
ply In the hands of the farmers Is not large,
but It will get no smaller until there shall be
a decisive turn. In the wheat situation.
Te flour market Is dull. Not much activity
In the foreign demand Is looked for before
July perhaps It will not come before October.
The Oriental market Is well stocked; Indeed,
some regard It as overstocked. Hong Kong
has kept up her orders regardless of the fact
that the Northern cities have latterly been
taking their flour direct Instead of through
Hong Kong. Now those Northern cities are
fully stocked, and the great southern port
finds a comparatively limited field for work
ing off Its heavy supply. There Is no new
business to be had In either China or Japan
at this time, and recent sales of flour there
have been at prices 10 to 15 cents per barrel
less than the mlllmen think they should re
ceive. There Is a little more elasticity In the
Japanese demand, but tho market there Just
now Is not much better than that of China.
And Port Arthur and Vladivostok share in
the general market conditions of the Orient.
The situation in Africa Is a trifle better, ow
ing to the fact that the Australian shortage
prevents the big Island from sending supplies
of wheat and flour across the Indian ocean
aad the Americans can serve Africa, without
fear of Australian competition. But that
market Is comparatively limited.
Inasmuch as the prosperity of the milting
business depends very largely upon the for
eign demand, the flouring mills of the North
west are having a rather quiet, time. Two
contradictor movements or tendencies are
observable here, however one toward selling
out local mills or combining interests, the oth
er toward enlargement of present plants and
construction of new mills. This may arise
from the belief by some that present dullness
is only temporary. In fact almost an annual
experience, while others who may have suf
fered more or less from Oriental Interrup
tions to trade fall to see anything hopeful In
the prospect. The local demand is good, but
the milling business cannot be tied to this.
Utah mlllmen have cause to rejoice In the
success of their efforts to get .a reduced rate
on wheat from the Columbia Valley to Utah.
The short wheat crop of that state last year
left It under the necessity of Importing a con
siderable part of Its bread In the form of
wheat or flour. Cheap rates on wheat will
enable the Utah mlllmen to turn out flour
for prices that will rule out competition.
Flour must pay the regular rate. It Is ex
pected that a considerable part of the wheat
remaining In the hands of Oregon and "Wash
ington growers will find Its way to Utah
under the arrangement which has Just gone
into effect.
The Oregon lumber Industry Is increasing
With marked rapidity. All the mills are
crowded with orders, and the transportation
companies have all they can do to keep the
traffic moving.
The limitations of the railroads at times
when large demands were made on rolling
stock for other commodities have driven a
considerable part of the lumber freight to
marine craft and shipments by water are
heavy and constantly Increasing. The de
mand from the East for Oregon lumber is so
heavy that the mills cannot fill all orders.
Prices are fair, and the outlook Is encour
aging. The local produce market is rather quiet.
Potatoes are moving In large quantities, chief
ly to San Francisco, where the market Is ex
pected to take all Oregon has to sell. The
prices are very firm, with an upward tend
ency. Onions are also bringing good figures,
but there Is a large supply still in the
lualatin country and not much advance is
looked for In the price of that vegetable.
Butter continues weak, even after a break
f 24 cents In the price. Receipts are" large,
rhe came is true of eggs. Poultry Is firm,
with receipts below the demand. Everything
was cleaned up Saturday at good prices.
Veal is very weak, and some of Saturday's
reoelpts were of none too good quality. The
retail butchers have agreed not to pay more
than 7 cents for veal, but the commission men
have eet no such limit, and quotations run
from C to S cents.
Groceries were steady throughout the week.
It has been active and generally satisfactory.
TrouDle in Eastern factories has had the
effect of producing dullness in the Oregon
wool market, and the prospect Is not all that
could be wished for the new clip, which wllj
be one of the largest eevr produced In the
state. No one cares to make contracts under
present conditions. There has been consid
erable bidding for the mohair clip, and local
competition has sent the price "higher than the
Eastern basis. Nothing Is doing in hops.
Thirty-nine building permits for Improve
ments aggregating in value $ 114,100 were is
sued In Portland In the week Just closed.
For the same week last year the number of
permits Issued was 11, and the value or the
improvements $40,300. The number of real
estate transactions last week was 144, and
for the corresponding week last year they
totaled OL

"Wentlier Rales "Wheat at Chicago
Slight Advance.
CHICAGO, April 10. -"Wheat was ruled by
the weather. The people who sold late yester
day on the rumors of rains, bought In hurried
ly at tho opening when dryness was reported
again, and caused a sharp advance. The small
Northwestern and primary receipts also caused
some alarm to shorts, and Induced good buying
at times. Traders were firm In the belief that
the whole future of wheat prices hlnces on
the moisture that may or may not come to the
relief of tho Winter crop In the nexV 10 days.
For some days the dry weather has been dis
cussed, and as days go by without the needed
rain, the situation grows more critical and
complex. Southwestern news Is generally bull
ish. Not only Is the "Winter crop full of dan
gerous possibilities, but the story Is now pretty
generally circulated that there will be a very
serious shrinkage In the area of Spring wheat
In the three Northwestern States. Cash wheat
is growing scarce here and in the Interior, and
this consideration caused holders to stand firm
today. No shipping business was done here to
day, and the export demand at the seaports
was poor. All this worked against the early
upturn, but exceptionally large clearances of
wheat and flour, 778,000 bushels, together with
the big bullish factors, brought a good rally.
May opened 50?ic" to H0c advanced, at 744
J&lc, and soon sold to 74c A dip to 74c
followed on- profit-taking, but the situation
was strong, and May closed 0c up, at 74c
Corn trado was only fairly active In spots.
Cables were Indifferent and the sample trade
was dull. May corn closed firm. HSHctip, at
C2H0C2WC
"Weather was the factor In the oats market.
From appearances, there Is no longer a fear of
a corner In May. May closed unchanged at 43c.
