THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY. MAY 10, 1902.
o
COMMERCIAL AND
The -wholesale markets yesterday were drift
ing along under easy sail, with no features of
special Interest to break the serenity of the
situation. Prices showed but little change,
although there was considerable strength In
oats, and another advance would not be surpris
ing at any time. Poultry receipts were liberal
again, and nothing but an Improved demand
for the Saturday trade, prevented a decline In
Urices. Potatoes held steady, with pood re
ceipt. Several thousand sacks were left on
the dock when the last steamer departed, and
there Is some fear expressed that these pota
toes, together with the receipts now coming to
hand, will be more than can be readily ab
sorbed by the California market at present
high prices, especially as new potatoes are
dolly becoming more plentiful In California.
Teal receipts were light yesterday, and In
eplte of the butchers' limit of 7c per pound,
the most of the sales were made at 8c. Pork
was very firm at 8c Butter and eggs were
unchanged. The New York Journal of Com
merce, under date of May 5, baa the following
regarding new-pack salmon:
Business amounting to around 4000 cases of
future Columbia River salmon was reported
today on the basis of 31 40 for tails, (1 55 for
flats and 00c for hVf pounds f. a. -b. the
Coast. The buslnc"' .vas done on prices quoted
out by a prominent packer, and was on orders
taken for local and nearby account. On the
came basis a fair business has been dono In
the interior, a fair percentage of buyers there
on last year's pack booking Jhelf orders again
this season. Everdlng & Farrel wired their
representatives here today to meet the cuts to
the $1 40 basis for tails made a day or so ago
by F. M. Warren and others, and it Is con
fidently expected that the other packers will J
meet the cut also.
Spot sockeye salmon Is reported showing firm
ness on the basis of $1 27 for flats. The lots
of half-pound sockeye offered yesterday at S7c
Is, It is stated, cleaned up, and it Is now
considered difficult to obtain anything under
82c Inside. Tails are scarce and held at
$1 12 generally, with a possibility of this
figure being shaded In come quarters to $1 10.
A Coast telegram quotes no offerings of sock
eye flats there under $1 20 f. o. b. A report
Is current that an Interest on the Coast has
named a price of 87c on future Alaska red
tails. The report could not be confirmed.

PORTLAND MARKETS. ,
Grain, Flour, Etc.
The local wheat market had a steady tone
yesterday in sympathy with the markets else
where, but the business was of very small pro
portions. Prices continued to a large extent
nominal, but Walla "Walla could be worked at
60c, and bluestem at about lc premium. Ex
porters have paused In their chartering, and
no new engagements are reported this week.
There has been a slight decline in freights In
San Francisco, and as there Is no material
difference in conditions in the two porta, local
operators ore not Inclined to pay much of a
Premium over the rates ruling in the Bay City.
Spot stocks of wheat are light, and there Is no
Immediate need of tonnage, unless it can be
Secured at lower rates than are now asked by
spot ships. December wheat In San Francisco
has again climbed above $1 10, and the spot
market Is firm at a premium of 2c per cen
tal, this strength being largely due to low
freights.

GRAIX MARKETS.
Wheat I Held Up at Chicago, Al
though Demand Is Only- Fair.
CHICAGO, May 9. At the outset wheat
showed a fairly Arm tone on the colder weath
er in the Northwest and drynessln the South
west, with reports of still further retarded
Spring wheat sowing because of moisture andi
crop damage reports from Kansas. Yesterday's
cash situation was still bulllohly effective, and
handlers of cash stuff still reported & contin
uance of the demand aroused during the re
cent decline. Offerings were light, antTrecelpts
were small. Although the demand was only
fair. It was- sufficient to bold up the market. A
fair export business was done at the seaboard.
July opened unchanged to c higher, at 74
74Hc sold up to 75c fluctuated narrowly and
closed fimvo up, at 74c
Although corn trade was slow much of the
time In sympathy with the waiting wheat mar
ket, the tone ruled strong. July closed H0&c
up, at 61c
Oats were strong and fairly active. July
clewed strong at its top figure, o higher, at
36c

DULL DAY IN WALL STREET
VOLUME OF DEALINGS LESS THAN
FOR MAXY WEEKS.
Reactionary Tendency More General
After Appearance of Eitlmate lor
Week's Currency Movement.
NEW YORK, May 9. The volume of dealings
today fell considerably below 500,000 shares
for the first time In many weeks. Whether
there was any other reason for this dullness
than the decision on the part of the specula
tors lately leading the market to let it lie fal
low for a time, was not evident. Perhaps the
long-drawn-out controversy over the anthracite
labor settlement may have been active In dis
couraging speculative activity. If that was the
factor which induced the curtailment of de
mand, the sagging of prices In the general list.
It did not appear among the coalers themselves.
That group was affected by the marked
atrength of Delaware & Hudson.
The Wall-street public Is puzzled to know the
grounds of the very positive assurance, which
has been manifest, among the controlling in
terests in the anthracite trade, that there will
be no strike. Their determination, evidently,
has not varied to offer no concessions, while on.
the other hand, the mlneworkers, in effect, are
under contingent orders to declare a strike un
less the concessions are granted. The outcome
was still awaited when the stock market closed
today.
There was some show of 'strength In the
early dealings, and an appearance of renewed
activity on the part of the recently prominent
market leaders. Amalgamated Copper wa
conspicuously active and strong, advancing at
one time 1. Reports were current that sales
of copper had been effected at 12c by a lead
ing competitor in sufficient amount to take It
oui of the market for some time to com,e. The
announcement that one of the suspended stock
exchange firms would be able to resume, and
that the other hoped to do so was regarded as
a satisfactory development. Trading was re
sumed in International Power, and it Was lift
ed 4 points. Louisville & Nashville fell back
after Its recent advance, and there was a drop
of 4 points In Chicago & Eastern Illinois. The
weakness of Chicago & Northwestern was also
associated with the conflicting reports of the
admission to the directory of representatives of
the Moore Interests, who are reported to have
acquired large holdings of stock lately.
The reactionary tendency of the market be
came more general after the appearance of the
preliminary estimate of the week's currency
movement It appears that tho banks have re
ceived on balance from the interior less than
$1000,000, against the loss to the Subtrcasury
during the week of $2.S75.000. The loan item
Is, or course, a matter of surmise The early
heavy liquidation in the stock market would
Indicate & reduction of tho loans, but it ap
pears that some of the calling of loans In large
amounts was simply for the purpose of re
lendlng elsewhere. Including possibly to the
ship merger underwriting syndicate. The mar
ket closed dull and steady.
Bonds were easier, in sympathy with stocks.
Total sales. $2,535,000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on the last call.

TRADE HAS BETTER TONE
IMPROVED WEATHER STIMULATES
DISTRIBUTION.
Great. Activity In Mannfacturlngr
"Wool Active at Higher Ranges
Than a. Year Ago.
NEW YORK, May 9. Bradstreefa to
morrow will say:
Improved weather conditions furnish the key
note for the more cheerful tone In distributive
trade. Copious rains, while not repairing all
the damage to Winter wheat done by the re
cent drouth in Kansas, seem to have put the
rest of the crop out of immediate danger. The
situation in manufacturing generally may be
summed up In one word, "activity," the only
Important exception to this being: noted In
the wooien industry, which Is interfered with
by strikes. The unsettled anthracite coal sit
uation also overhangs the Eastern trade situa
tion. Iron and steel trades are still pushed
to the utmost tension to keep up with current
demand. Building and allied trades dependent
thereon are active, despite the Increased price
of lumber and of builders' hardware, and the
higher level of wages.
The feature In iron and steel Is the scarcity
of supplies of pig Iron, and the strength of
the demand for finished products, particularly
strucutural materials, what few rails are
available, and whatever tonnage can be secured
of bars and plates. Among the other metals,
tin is higher on the week, while copper is
rather weaker.
Good cables and the large decrease In wheat
supplies reported by Bradstreet's were a
source of etrength early in the week, but there
was a heavy liquidation on the bulge, which
was accentuated by better advices as to wheat
from the Southwest, and the generally im
proved condition In corn and oats.
The situation of wool at the East is affected
by "the Interruption caused by strikes, but
stocks are low. Wool Is active at a higher
range than a year ago.
Wheat, Including flour, exports for the week
aggregated 3.302,240 bushels, against 5,308.165
bushels last week, and 4.178,872 last year.
Wheat exports July 1. 1901. to date (45' weeks),
aggregate 10.167.067 bushels, against 179,693,
699 bushels last season.
Business failures for the week in the United
States number 179, against 174 last week, 193
in this week last year, and 174 in 1900.

WAGE DISPUTES UXFORTU.VATE.
Prodnction Curtailed "When Con
sumptive Demand la Large.
NEW TORK, May 9. P.. G. Dun & Co's
weekly review tomorrow will eay:
At a time when consumptive demand sur
passes all previous records in the Nation's his
tory, it is unfortunate that production should
be curtailed. Tet that Is the present situation.
First, the labor controversies and a tornado
stopped work at many points, greatly reducing
the output. Many more tvagii disputes must
be settled before the end of the month, or fur
nace fires will be h&nked and wheels cease to
revolve. Losses by the elements have been
severe, .he largest plant In the world being
rendered Idle for a month, while many foun
dries and shops were destroyed. Prices of
commodities on May 1, as shown by Dun's
Index number, rose to the highest point in
recent years, gaining 6.3 ptr cent over the
corresponding date last year, but this week
there' has been a material decline In some
products, notably grain.
Distribution through retail channels continues
very heavy. Railway earnings are steadily
gaining, full returns for pril exceeding last
year's by 10.6 per cent, and 1900 by 35 per
cent. Procrastinating consumers, who predict
ed a collapse in the Iron and steel markets sim
ilar to the break which occurred two years ago,
have greatly augmented the pressure by tardily
attempting to supply their requirements.
Dispatches to this paper promise a large wool
clip, though the late Spring has delayed shear
ing. There has been less selling of wool on
the sheep's back, and ranchmen appear to be
in financial condition to hold their yield until
satttfactory prices are forthcoming-.
More encouraging weather reports have made
the outlook brighter for & normal wheat yield.
Exports from all ports during the week amount
ed to 3,477,370 bushels, flour Included, com
pared with 5,570,037 bushels In the preceding
week.
Failures for the week number 219 In the
United States, against 187 last year, and 24
In Canada, against 26 last year.
Northern Pacific "Wreck.
HELENA. MonC, May D. "Westbound
Northern Pacific passenger trafa No. 11
early to'day crashed Into a freight, whose
length necessitated leaving 10 cars on the
main line, at Bedford, between Helena
and Townsend. A box car was knocked
off the track and the engine smashed. The
engineer and fireman escaped Injury by
Jumping. A flagman had been sent back
to warn the passenger train, but did not
get fairly started before It hove in sight,
and so great .was Its momentum that it
could not be stopped in. time to avoid a
collision.
Beyond a severe shaking up, none of
the passengers was injured.
Steel Trust Improvements.
PITTSBURG, May 9. The Gazette this
morning says: The United States Steel
Corporation will expend $6,000,000 in mak
ing improvements to their present hold
ings, and instead of building one large
tube mill in the vicinity of Pittsburg,
three will be erected. The greater part of
this money, which has been appropriated,
will be spent on the works of the corpo
ration in and around Pittsburg. The plant
of the National Tube Company at Mc
Keesport will not be moved, but it will
be fully repaired and operated to Us ca
pacity. LEGAL ADVICE
