THE MORNING OSEGONIAN, . SATUBDAY, APRIL 26, 1902.
G0MWIERG1AL AND
The bagging -wheat market In Chicago yes
terday had slight efict here. Foreign quota
tions were Arm, which held the local prices
up well, though late in the day there was a
noticeable tendency to soften- In the past few:
days some wheat has been told In Umatilla
County, but It was for milling purposes, and
he price was greater than the foreign market
would warrant. Farmers are not selling at ex
port prlcos, and there is no Immediate pros
pect that they will.
The vegetable and produce market was well
cleaned up yesterday, and the street will be In
good condition this morning for the fresh ar
rivals by last night's steamer from San Fran
cisco. Three carloads of oranges came in yes
terday from California, but the supply of small
oranges was out of proportion to that of the
large ones. The prices hold firm.
The local supply of poultry Is not sufficient
for the demand. Yesterday morning the second
shipment of cold-storage broilers came in from
the East, 25 dozen, and they were taken by
two establishments. But the treatment these
chickens are subjected to reduces their quality,
and there will be no market for the Eastern
broilers when home-grown fowls can be ob
tained at living prices. The home supply is
expected to be sufficient to keep out the for
eigner in a few days.
Veal is notably firmer, and dressed hogs have
gone up c. Shipments of veal to Puget Sound
have been quite heavy for the past two days,
with the result that the local market has hard
ened, and the butchers are likely to have some
difficulty In supplying all their demands with
out paying over the 7c agreed upon as the
limit.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Break in Grain Sent Prices Up, Only
to Be Wiped Ont Near Close.
NEW YORK. April 25. There was a per
sistent tendency today, among the stocks of
grain-carrying railroads, to move in a see-saw
fashion with the price of grain. The heavy
liquidation and a violent break in prices in
this morning's grain market sent prices of the
FINANCIAL NEWS
grangers up with a rush. Union Pacific leading
with an .extreme advance of 2. The move
ment spent its force when It was seen that
good buying had developed In the grain mar
ket at the decline, and that prices were rally
ing there from the slump caused by reports of
last night's rains. The whole market felt the
lack of the early aggressive leadership of
Union Pacific, and during the final hour there
was a ragged recession which wiped out many
early gains and carried prices of important
stocks among the grangers, coalers. New York
public utilities and high-priced industrials be
low last night. There was a late Advance In
the Southern group, marked by very large buy
ing of Southern Railway at an extreme ad
vance of 1. Louisville was lifted at the same
time 2, and Chicago. Indianapolis & Louis'
vllle rose 3$ over last night, after erratic fluc
tuations. This movement seemed designed to
check the decline elsewhere in thtf market, and
when it was seen to be without effect, the
Southern stock reacted. There was some bid
ding up of the grangers again at the close,
which was active and steady.
There was large buying of the United States
Steel stocks during the morning by brokers
usually employed by the syndicate. This buy
ing seemed to be in connection with the Issues
of the bond circular. The stocks reacted and
became dull, with the rest of the 'mar ket. The
circular disclosed that $35,000,000 of the pro
ceeds of the bond Issue Is designed to capital
ize expenditures already made for improve
ments and for properties purchased. The ex
ecutive committee estimates that the expendi
tures of $25,000,000 for proposed improve
ments will add $10,000,000 to $15,000,000 to the
yearly .profits. The $50,000,000 proceeds of the
sale of bonds for cash are thus accounted for.
The provision for the $10,000,000 allowed the"
underwriting syndicate and the managers, J. P.
Morgan & Co.. at the rate of 4 per cent of the
$250,000,000 bond Issue, Is not made clear.
There was a great variety of movements among
the specialties.
Amalgamated Copper advanced on the con
jecture that the consolidation of the Helnze
Interests was preliminary1 to their absorption.
The stock lost the gain. Sugar was weak on
the proposed Investigation ot the company's
Cuban holdings by a Senate committee.
' The activity of tho stock market fllverted in
terest from the bond market, but prices thero
were firmly held. Total sales, par value,
$5,305,000. United States bonds were" all un
changed on the last call.

ALMOST PANIC IN GRAIN
RAIN CAUSES A GREAT COMMOTION
AT CHICAGO.
General TVbeat-DHZBBlBs; Process
From OBening-Even "Worse
Break in" Corn.
CHtCAGO. April 25. Rains In the our big
surplus wheat and corn states played havoc
with prices of grains on the Board of Trade
today, and caused a commotion .for a time that
resembled a stampede. Prices spread so wide
ly and ao wildly that for. a time a panic was
feared. There was a wild opening In wheat.
Rain had fallen during the night copiously
over Iowa. Iltlnols, Missouri and Nebraska,
and the situation was materially relieved In
Kansas. The" heavy downpour In thW city, as
usual, gave an" added fright to wheat-holders,
and there was a general wheat-dumping pro
cess from the sound of the opening gong. Ev
erybody seemd. to have selling orders. So
rapid was the decline, and so lregutar the
fluctuations, that stop-loss orders 'were soon
met, and additional stuff was thrown into the
pit. contributing toward a further weakness.
Two million bushels each were unloaded by
several houses.
Aside from the weather news, conditions
might be called bullish. The early English
cables were not responsive to tha slump of
yestorday, but they soon got into line and
closed weak. Receipts were small, and sta
tistical papers Issued bullish reports. Another
support was the apparent steadiness of tho
Kansas City market in the face of tho break
here. Other outside markets were weak, but
occasional reports still complained of crop
damage. After the early tumult, prices re
covered somewhat but bearish sentiment In
duced further pressure, and the market weak
ened again. May wheat opened 0"o to 10
1C lower, with Bales as Vide as 7473c
JUly sold at the start between 76075c. The
close was weak. May l01c lower, at 74c,
and July lc off, at 75075c
Corn suffered even a worse break than wheat
at the ooenlng. slumping as much as 2c
Wheat sympathy and the general rains were
the factors. All day the pit was a scene of
much excitement and nervous feeling. Corn
was dumped freely into- tho pit, regardless of
prices. After the general selling" movement
had seemingly knocked the bottom out of the
market, there was some responsive buying, and
prices recovered lo from, the lower point xof
the day. Subsequently much of this recovery
was lost, as scalpers .sold again. The close
was weak. July and 'May closing lc lower, at
63c and 62e, respectively.
Oats declined with the break In other grains,
but the market ruled comparatively quiet. The
eloie was weak. May lc lower, at 42c

THE SALMON PROBLEM.
Disappointment "With the Opening: ot
the Season..
From the Astorian.
There is no use of disguising It any longer.
While It has been the custom to magnify the
resources of-thls country of every kind at "all
times. It is but proper .and rlcht to tell tho
truth when solemn Indications present them
selves. The salmon Industry is one of our great
est, res ourcec and when the run is short It Is
felt all along the Columbia. The Season opened
with some mlegivingf, but still fishermen were
Inclined to look forward with hope, cannery
men were naturally silent and expectaat, and
the public and newspapers gave out words of
encouragement. But the results have proved
discouraging to all alike, and unless there Is
a great change this year's run will prove a
failure.
While there Is some oMast year's stock still
on hand, and It would be considered aa im-

portant feature in the market should this sea-i
son's run have opened up more prosperously.
yet as it Is, with the demand throughout this
country and Europe for 'North Pacific salmon
increasing, the old stock is but a drop in the
bucket.
The ways of the salmon are the most myste-.
rioUs of any Of the wonders at nature. One
year, two years, three years, in succession,
streams flowing into the North Pacific are fair
ly "blocked with them and the fishermen can
Scarcely take them from the contrivances with
which they catch them fast enough. There
comes a lull, and for the same period the run
la. light, and between hope and disappointment
the tollers of the sea stand by and watch and
walL There are many theories for this strange
phenomenon, and like all theories about tho
works of nature, they differ as variedly as do
the sands of the sea. Some claim that nature
will fulfill Tier Implied promises and that his
tory will repeat itself; others say that the
hatcheries will do the work, but the man at
the net and the web looks forward ta the day
when the flsh will shoot the current, fill the
streams and fall his prey by the hundreds and
thousands, as of yore. The canneryman and his
host of employes stand by the Idle machinery
and watch with anxious eyes the approach ot
the disappointed fishermen and their empty
boats.
With the demand for salmon Increasing
throughout the country, and the territory for
shipments from this country broadening, can
nerymen and fishermen are naturally Impa
tient ovr the prospects of the present season.
They wonder why, after the establishment of
the hatcheries throughout the Pacific North
west, at a great expenditure of money, labor
and time the Industry should not have reached
a more certain and permanent basis. If theo
ries were correct, and the prediction of the
men at the helm of flsh production had proved
true, tho salmon runs would already be as reg
ular and reliable as the crop on a farm under
the best system of cultivation and Irrigation.
But the time has been too limited to master so
wonderful a feat as to comprehend and get
control of an Industry ot the magnitude of the
fisheries and handle them with the certainty
and success with which agriculture, the first
Industry engaged In by man. Is handled.
But there is no necessity of becoming dis
couraged. The season may prove practically a
failure, and possibly the next, although each
may yet prove a success, but every man en
gaged in the industry, from the commonpst
employe to the largest dealr, pins his faith
upon he flnal permanent success of the Indus
try In this country. Small runs mean larger
ones to follow. -and a glut In the market means
a greater demana and larger prices later.
