THE MORNING OKEGONIAJJ, TUESDAY, APEIL 22, 1902. IS COMMERCIAL AND The steamer arriving trora San Francisco Sunday dumped a big lot of fruit and pro duce on the market yesterday morning, and the Front street commission houses were busy distributing It. Potatoes, irhlch closed the week very Arm last Saturday, were still sell ing around $1 00 for the best stock yesterday, and receipts were small. Unlees they come In more freely before the departure of the next steamer, higher prices will most surely prevail. Onions are not sharing In the In creased strength In potatoes, 'and, while prices are ranging from ?1 40 up to $2, very few are eold at the top quotation. Some of the pro duce on Sunday's eteamer sold at lower fig ures than on the preceding steamer, peas go ing at 4c per pound, and asparagus at 7c. Jfew potatoes in fairly good condition sold at 4c per pound. Orange6 and lemons were slightly firmer, and strictly flrst-class apples are becoming sufficiently scarce to command high figures. Eggs came in more freely yes terday, and, while some were .going at 10c, the bulk of the sales were made at 15c, and fomo dealers were quoting down as low as 15c. General trado yesterday, as usual on Monday, was rather quiet, the weather 'being too favorable for outdoor work to induce many people to come to town. Orders from the country were liberal. Staple groceries were In good demand at unchanged quotations. Bank Clearings. Exchanges. Balances. ...513,375 ? 81.491 Portland . Tacoma .. Seattle ... Spokane , ...

The local wheat market has stiffened up a little In sympathy with the East, and, while C5c was the rullngquotatlon for Walla Walla yesterday, this figure was "sprung" at least half a cent In some cases. Even at these figures, the stocks still held In the country move with extreme difficulty, and growers are about as firm In their Ideas regarding values as they have ever been. There Is nothing doing In freights for either spot or nearby business. The lively movement that set In last week on new crop business seems to have satisfied all demands, for it was impossible to place any more ships at 80s yesterday, al though San Francisco was reported to bo stronger on spot business, paying up as high as 25s. There Is nothing doing In Valley wheat, practically all that Is remaining In the hands of the mills or of men holding It until the demands of the mills are sufficient to cause a handsome premium over export values.

Another Day of" Active and Varied Speculation. NEW TORK, April 21. This was another day of very active and varied speculation in stocks, hutTtho campaign for the advance re ceived a rather severe check. The day started off with Indications of a repetition of the same tactics adopted last week, of heavy buying at some new points to offset realizing at oth ers. It so happened, however, that the stocks In which realizing was attempted, namely, the Western and Pacific stocks, were acutely de pressed by the threat of barm to the crops and by the leave granted to the State of Washington to enter suit In the Supreme Court against the Northern Securities Company. The leaders of the campaign for the advance recovered their position to some extent late In the day by a vigorous buying movement In Southern Pacific, and ia Beading, and Man hattan, which were lifted respectively 4& and 3 over Saturday. This Induced a general cov ering movement In the whole market, and sub stantial rallies, which materially reduced the losses, but still lejt prices generally below Saturday. The setback came in the face of promising auspices for the advance. The Louis ville Incident seemed to have convinced some of the large Eastern banking Interests "that the time was ripe for an advance, although tney naa been Inclined to deprecate the move ment Inaugurated by Western capitalists as premature, on account of the unformed pros pects for the crop. The steamship merger was accepted as an additional Indication of the confidence of large capital In continued prosperous conditions. The result of the day's operations In the market showed the Importance of the outcome of the crop situation. The reports of hot winds In the Winter wheat belt did not seem to affect the grain market, perhaps owing to the large long interest in the market, but the simple recital of the temperature touched at points In Ne braska, Missouri and Kansas was rufflclent to cause a reflection of anxiety in the stocks of the roads running through that region. The weekly statistics of railroad traffic, represent ing a decline In the merchandise movement to the Southwest, was regarded as corrobora tion of the threat of harm to the crops. Scat tered report of showers may have had to do with the late rally In the market. The leave granted to the State of Washing ton to file a suit against the Northern Securi ties Company is what was refused to the State of Minnesota in the previous attempt. The question of the legality of the company Is now felt to be started toward a Judicial decision. There is enough doubt over the outcome of the suit to serve as an unsettling Influence, the more so In view of the additional projects now known to be on foot and dependent upon the settlement of this question. An incident of the day was the demoralization In the silver market, which carried sliver bul lion to 50c an ounce, compared with the previous low record of Cltfc on September 1, 1807, when Japan adopted the gold standard. The slump is said to be due to selling by China as a necessary Incident to the payment of the Indemnity to the powers. Tho market closed active and about steady. The heavy selling of Union Pacific converti ble bonds was the feature of the bond market. Total sales, fO,5S5 000. United States bonds were all unchangiC on tho last call. Closing: Stock Quotations.

The price of sliver in London today dropped d to 23 5-1 Cd, and In New York. lc to 50c. The slump Is due to selling of the metal by China. Incident to the payment of the Indemnity taxes In China in sliver. The supply of exchange is insufficient to make tho remittance of their indemnity, and the sliver, has to be sold to make the ex change. This has demoralized the London markets. LONDON, April 21. Financial experts in London explain that the fall In the price of silver to the lowest point on record today was caused by the fact that China, Instead of buying stiver, as usual at this time of the year. Is selling. In order to pay the war in demnity In gold. It Is generally believed that the fall In the price of sliver would not have occurred bad London supported the market. This, coupled with the fact that the Unltel States Is selling, caused the decline, which Is now believed to have reached the minimum price. Foreign Financial Nevrs. "NEW YORK. April 21. The Commercial Ad vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock market was Inactive today, and the tone was confident on the prospects for peace. The new consol Issue opened weak, on realizing by those who have obtained their allotments. The premium fell to 1. then rose to 1 and closed at 1. The old Issue was finally unchanged at 94. American stocks were very lively, but deal ers on this side were cautious. They were hanging on to the coat-tails of New York, ready to drop off at any sign of danger. The relapses were as follows: Union Pacific from 112 to 106: Atchison, from 86 to 0. and St. Paul, from 177 to 175. Reading Issues, on the other hand, were notably steady, being absorbed all day, and closing at the top. The close was Irregular. Money rates wero strong on the applications for consols. The returns were mopped out by the debt to the Bank of England. The market repaid 4,000.000 of the 5.000,000 due that Institution. Gold to the amount of 22,000 in bars has been bought, and 40.000 has been received from Holland. Sliver slumped tt to 23 5-10d per ounce, the lowest on record In the history of that metal, the previous record being 23d In the month of September, 1807. The present fall Is due less to a selling movement than to a complete absence of a demand. India has been merely looking on, and China, In stead of buying, as usual, this season. Is selling freely to provide for the gold war indemnity. The bottom seems touched. , provided specula tive buying gives an Impetus. . Daily Treasury Statement. WASHINGTON. April 21.

Trade In wheat had a nervous strain. The opening tone was de cidedly bullish, on the continued drouth and hot weather, though trading was not heavy. May opened c higher, at 7475c. There were predictions that hot and unseasonable weather In the West would be relieved by showers, and selling set in. Gossip had It also that the Wall street crowd was selling heavily In order to keep prices down, and create an Impression on the Stock Exchange that the wheat crop was in no danger. May slid oft to 7474c before the decrease of 2.870.000 bushels In the visible supply came to the relief of the bulls and started covering. Late In the day May had a rally and closed steady, a shade up, at 7474c Corn trade was small and had no prominent features. The market was inclined to follow wheat until near the close, when the market turned heavy. May closed c lower, at 61c There was a fair-sized flurry in oats early. Near- the close there was a rush to unload, and May closed easy, c down, at 42c Provisions suffered a further decline and closed weaker than for many days. Large hog receipts, lower prices at the yards, and selling by packers and scalpers were the bear ish factors. May pork closed 17c lower; lard 10c down, and ribs 15c lower.

Please give a subscriber advice where to report the following land swindle that is going on in this section: Stockmen have in the last two years hired every Tom and Harry that has come along to take up a homestead and in 14 months after having built a shanty, plowed a half acre and slept on it prob ably once or twice, have them to com mute and make final proof on the claim. There is generally three in a bunch, and each swears In turn for the other as wit ness to the fulfillment of the law. SUBSCRIBER.
