COMMERCIAL AND
The arrival of considerable produce on the
steamer from San Francisco had but little
t ftect on the market, and prices yesterday wen
practically the same as they have been for the
past week, there being no changes of Import
ance. Cabbage took a slight Jump and sold up
to Hfcc at a few of the houses. Callfprnla
strawberries sold at .about $1 60 for best, while
the Oregon berries ranged from 20c to 25c per
box, according to quality. Eggs still hoer
about 15e, while a number of the dealers are
selling at c lower. Butter prices remain the
same, with the market firm. The quotations
for poultry are about the same, but the de
mand for all but the Spring chickens is rather
light. There is but a slight call for ducks.
Veal and pork remain firm at unchanged
prices. The potato market Is rather shaky.
While few potatoes .are being bought, the
dealers are keeping the prices as near the old
figures as possible Reports from San Fran
cisco state that tho market is overcrowded,
and that dealers there have a bard time get
ting their prices. It Is reported that a ship
ment of 3000 sacks Is now on the way -south
frcm Seattle About 000 sacks are ready for
shipment from here, butane dealers are holding
back to await results.

the East, but there was such a small amount
Of business doing that quotations were nominal
and no changes were reported. "Walla Walla

at that figure, and It would require quite a
premium to move lots of any consequence.

and slightly easier for distant tonnage, a large
carrier offering yesterday at 28s 3d. which Is
lower than anything has been quoted for new
crop recently. The best offer that shipowners
!an get Is about 27s 6d, and not very much
tonnage could be fixed even at that figure.
The local barley market has stiffened up a lit

Stocks In Oregon and, "Washington have been
pretty Veil cleaned up, and the local demand
bad drawn heavily on the California market
for supplies recently, prices thus following
that market. Oats arc also, firmer, although
offerings are a little larser than they have
been.

KEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Important Bearing: of Strike on In
dustrial Situation.
NEW YORK. May 16. The conspicuous fea
ture of today's weak stock market was entire
lack of any supporting demand at any stage
of the decline. Even the roam shorts, who
almost Invariably cover short -contract at tho
end of a day of declining prices, ehowed no
solicitude about covering, and the market
seemed entirely to Jack resistance. The liqui
dation was, not heavy, but such as It was. was
very general. "While the decision of the an
thracite miners for a strike was the .ostensible
cause of the weakness, the depression was not
confined, to the coalers, nor was it particularly
conspicuous there. Reading was first in point
of activity, but allowing for Its one-half shares,
the sales were but little in excess of those of
Union Pacific The 3-point decline was fairly
attributable to tne fact that It has been -lected
as the representative of recent specula
tive confidence1 In tho coal trade outlook. The
Other coalers shared about equally with the
weakness-of the general market, which Ib rep
resented by quite uniform losses of 103 polnU.
The undeviating assurance that there would
be no strike, which has been expressed through
out the period since a strike was threatened
by all representatives of the controlling In
terests In the coalers, leaves no room for doubt
that the final decision to strike was a sur
prise. Corffidenee In a favorable outcome of
the struggle to the benefit of the coal operators
continued to be expressed In "Wall street today.
Rut this could not alter the general Impression
that a prolonged and serious struggle Is In
prospect. It did not need the formal announce
ment by President Mitchell of the purpose of
the miners to make the strike a National
mining strike to awaken anxiety over the pos
sible extension of the labor trouble by sym
pathy into other fields, especially into the
bituminous coal fields. The collateral effects
of such an extension are easy to understand
and little difficult to estimate. The effect upon
the Iron and steel industries, already strug
gling with a scarcity of material of all kinds,
would be most notable.
The Iron and steel stocks shared in the gen
eral weakness. Reports of an advance of ft a
ton In the price of Southern iron, rather
strangely, added ;to the depression, as It Is
.felt that the maintenance of the high level of
consumption Is dependent upon the sustained
steadiness of the price. Attention was given
also to the estimate of the Iron Age that the
producing capacity of pig Iron for the country
would be Increased 300,000 tons this year, and
4.000.000 tons by the end of 1003. The wet
weather In the Northwest retarding the seed
ing of the crops may have been a depressing
influence, although the weakntss In the corn
market should have been a fair offset.
Bonds were dull and Irregular. Total sales,
par value. J2.360.000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on the last call.

Movement More Bullish, Jfotwltn-
qtandlnK Good Crop Reports.
CHICAGO. May 10. Early in the session
wheat showed some tendency toward a good
bull movement. Cables were higher or steady,
regardless of our losses yesterday. Receipts
In the Northwest were still very email, Indi
cating, the bulls said, an actual and serious
depletion of stocks in farmers' hands. In ad
dition to this, rain began falling again In the
Northwest, and advices from the Red River
Valley told a very bullish story of delayed
Spring seeding. Offerings at the opening im
provement were not sufficient for the small
demand, and prices worked up to 75075?4c
for July, after opening a shade to c up,
at 75Js075V4075Hc
General harvest news, however, was prom
ising. The Northwestern curtailment of re
ceipts was beginning to lose some of its
bullish effect, and of much Importance was tne
fact that exceptionally seasonable weather In
most of the country was keeping the outsider
from the market. The export demand was in
active The crowd started selling, and July
slumped sharply lc, and closed ?c down, t
74075c
Corn showed weakness all day, the bull par
ty making no apparent effort to support the
market. July clos'ed weak, UQtJc lower, at
61061c
Oats were dull and featureless. July closed
i4c up, at 83S036c
Provisions ruled weaker and needed the sup
port that came eagerly from the crowd heavily
Interested on the bull side. July pork closed
7V4c lower, lard 507V4c down, and ' ribs 2Hc
up.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

WEATHER AFFECTS TRADE
Season Late and Crop Outlook Un
certain. NEW TORK, May" 16. R. G. Dun &
Co.'fr weekly review of trade tomorrow
wil say:
Weather and wages continue the only serious
ly disturbing factors In the business situation.
Excessive moisture and low temperature mad
the crop outlook more uncertain, and much de
pends on a continuance of prosperity In the
agricultural sections. On the other hand, record-breaking
distribution of pay In the Pitts
burg region accentuated retail trade, while re
sumption of woolen and other mills added
largely to the active forces. Transporting lines
continue to make splendid exhibits, railroad
earnings lor the first week of Mar exceeding
those of a year ago 6.2 per cent-and surpassing
the same week's earnings in 1900 by 19.8 per
cent.
The enormous pig Iron production would sug
gest accumulation of supplies, but consumption
easily keeps pace, furnace stocks showing a
decrease of about 10.000 tons during April, to
much the lowest point in recent years.
Footwear manufacturers at the East report
an increased volume of orders from Western
Jobbers, but wholesalers in the principal East
ern centers are placing few Fall contracts.
Retailers Are only sending moderate duplicate
orders for Summer goods, fair supplies remain
ing of early purchases. Solo leather Is quiet, J
nines again securea a moderate advance In
prices, both for domestic and foreign. In the
dry goods market there is evidence of Increased
buying for Fall and next Spring, but only small
supplementary orders for the present season.
Cold weather had retarded Jobbing trade at'
many points.
Domestic trade In cotton Is steady, with sup
plies In strong hands, but export business Is
dull. More liberal deliveries of woolen goods
are reported, showing that fewer looms are
Idle. The best demand Is for staple lines of
men's wear and medium grades of fancy
woolens.
While It Is generally agreed that there has
been much improvement in the Winter-wheat
states since the opening of the month, prices
became somewhat firmer upon the publication
of the offlclal report of conditions on May 1.
Failures for the week numbered 228 in the
United States, against 177 last year, and 17 In
Canada, against 10 a. year ago.
COLD WEATHER RETARDS TRADE.
Crdp Reports Generally Favorable
Coal Strike a Great Menace.
NEW TORK, May 16. Bradstreefs to
morrow will say:
Conditons governing trade lack uniformity,
and explain Irregularity fn advices from dif
ferent sections. The prominent feature Is, of
course, the favorable character of nearly all
crop advices Winter wheat excepted), but even
hero the Improvement since May 1 has neu
tralized much that was unfavorable before.
The shadow overhanging Sastern trade. In the
shape of a general anthracite coal strike has
deepened with the formal suspension of work
and tho strike announcement. Cool weather
hitherto has retarded retail demand, and In
the agricultural sections the population has
been busily engaged. Hence, present demand
has suffered In comparison with the outlook
for the future, but te-order business from job
bers has been very fair despite this. The effoct
of the copious rains in tho West has been in
a nigh degree favorable, and Is improving the
buyers. Briefly stated, the Winter wheat yield
will be heavily reduced from last year's bumner
,crop, but the outlook even here is better than
In 1599, while spring wheat promises well,
inreBenF-pTlces not favoring a heavy decrease
in acreage.
Produce prices and dairy products -are weak
ening as supplies increase, but meats are still
high.- and permanently lower prices are not
looked for until Autumn. The industrial out
look, asldo from the anthracite trouble, and
the probabilities of this disturbance, if ex
tended, Involving some branches of the Iron
and steel trades Is on the whole not more un
settled than might be found In a time of more
than ordinary prosperity. Wage advances, sdmo
of them voluntary, have been numerous, and
some -other troubles are approaching settle
ment Fuller railroad earnings returned from
April confirm last week's report of a gain of
11 per cent over April & year ago, while for
the first week of May the indicated gain Is
in excess of 8 per cent. Notable strength is
still shown In prices of many staples, particu
larly those in which speculation Is not very
prominent. Cash wheat, flour and com are
all higher on the week, hog products have ad
vanced, hides are at about the highest point
in years, and copper, long a lagger. Is stiffen
ing in price on free consumption.
Sugar is unsettled. The decrease In Euro
pean beet sowings is only a small one, and
raws and refined are lower but the canning
season is approaching, and & larger business
is looked for. as the small fruit crops' promise
welt. Spot coffee Is no higher, and supplies
are very keavy. Anthracite coal, m & result

Steel Plate Trwtt,
NEW YORK, May 15. It i3 stateff, says
the Journal of Commerce, that at the
next meeting of the Steel Plato Associa
tion, which Is subject to the call of Judge
Gary, a plan will be discussed for con
solidating the various concerns which, are
included in the Eastern association, with
a capital of something like $40,000,000. The
intention of the promoters, it Is generally
believed, is to operate the company in
harmony with the United States Steel
Corporation, as in the case of the Allis
Chalmers Company, the International
Nickel and other companies in which
Judge Gary and President Schwab are
interested.

control them, it was not my fault"
Mr. Croker said he had no intention of
returning to New York in August, and
that ie could not cay when he would go
