THE MORNING t OBEGONIAK; WEDNESDAY, MAY 28, 1902. 13 COMMERCIAL AND A Rood, trade, with no features of special Interest, was about all that could be said of the market situation yesterday- Produce re ceipts -were liberal, but there were no changes In prices. Oregon strawbenjes came along In Quantities sufficient to force prices down to 12&c nd the best of the California berries were selling at Sc and Be per pound. The sea son for Orecon berries Is so much later than usual that the California berries are In a fair way to disappear before the Oregon are here in sufficient quantities to supply the demand. A carload of very One bananas came In yes terday, too ripe for shipment, but In excellent condition for Immediate use. Veal is a shade weaker under heavy receipts, but pork Is In good demand at unchanged prices. The potato market was a 6hade steadier but dealers are buying sparingly, and there are so many new potatoes coming into the San Francisco market that there is not much prospect for an "im provement locally. The only business In hops at present is for new crop, and yesterday a number of contracts were reported to have been made In the Valley at 124c The Eastern hop market continues very Una, and the outlook at present favors good prices. Under date of May 22, the New Tork Journal of Commerce says: "The volume of business transacted locally continued small, but with light offerings and dealers indifferent sellers, based on the strong statistical position, the market showed a sood undertone. It was reported that about S00 bales of old oWs stored at East Syracuse were destroyed last week by fire. Hop people who have been up the state and have been visiting the hopyards say that the recent frosts which were experienced for about five nlghtr de-w stroyed the vines that were up; they- are of the opinion that the yield of tho old yards will be reduced by the freeze, but that the new Sards will not be affected, especially If weath er conditions during the remainder of the sea son are favorable. Rains, it is reported, are now being experienced, and It is understood that they will be of much benefit. It Is quite generally admitted that the crop will be a. late one, owing to the recent cold weather. Mall advices received from London of the date of May 8 say that the hop plant has not made much progress lately on account of the very cold weather we are having 'so far; but should more genial conditions set In soon we may do well."

There was little business In wheat yesterday, but dealers found it easier to .buy the cereal s.t 67c than It has been "for several days, and but few of them cared to quote that much for It The freight market is quiet, but there are no recent transactions on which to base values. The Lord Shaftesbury finished loading yester day, making but three ships for the month, a remarkably small business when the size of the crop Is considered. The demand for oats, which had been very brisk on account of some large orders from South Africa, has suddenly ceased, the stocks already bought apparently being sufficient for the present. Stocks have been pretty well cleaned up, and If a demand should spring up from another quarter, higher prices would follow. Beerbohm's London List, commenting on the almost unprecedented American wheat visible supply decrease, says: "This is certainly a striking' picture, and accustomed although we are to surprises In the matter of American supplies, it is one which deserves attention. The world's visible has nat urally experienced a sharp decrease In April, and must now be regarded as quite moderate In extent. Beerbohm estimates world's visible May 1 at 122.800.000, against 14S.480.000 April 1, or 25.6S0.O00 decrease; 137.120,000 a year ago, or 14.320,000 decrease; 137,120.000 a year ago. or 14.320,000 decrease, and 144,000,000 May L 1900, or 21,200,000 decrease. The de crease in April last year was 17,280,000, and In 1000, 14,400.000, while this year the decrease is 25.680,000."

Shorts In the East Are Given a Good Scare. CHICAGO. May 27. After making good gains, corn easily took the lead again today by point of activity and gains. The tone throughout the session was very strong, and the buying that put up prices was of the best character. Everything favored the bulls. Cold weather started the upturn, but decreased stocks, smaller receipts, with smaller to come, higher cables and a good cash demand, -were the added Influences that frightened the shorts into thinking their day of reckoning had come. July corn opened 4Xe up, at 63UO630 03Hc Jumped to 61c, and closing strong lftlc up. at 6414c Wheat made rurther moderate advances to day. The corn strength as much as anything was the factor. General sentiment was bull ish, but there were some bearish Influences at work. In the main, the commission-houses are getting a little more business from the country, and the pit consequently ahowed a more fairly active condition. Cables were slightly higher, but Influenced only a steady opening. The good corn prospects and the pre mium for cash over the manipulations were the principal factors. Traders were paying some attention to reports or the officials of the Great Northwestern Railway that the North west has practically no wheat offered. Brad street's visible supply showed a decrease of 2, i 9.000 bushels, and Influenced some ad vances. July opened a shade lower to a shade higher, at 73?873ijc, sold to 7414c and closed firm, sKc up, at 74c. Oats followed corn and. wheat.

OFFICIAL CROP REPORT Outlook for Winter Wheat on Pacific Const Continues Good. WASHINGTON. May 27.-The Weather Bu reaua weekly summary of crop conditions The week ending May 26 was one of nlgfily favorable temperature conditions in all dis tricts east cf the Rocky Mountains, with abundant rainfall over the greater portion of the central valleys, the Lake region and th JS,SS,af,UeUtet Dr0uth ons in the Ohio Valley have been effectually relieved except in Southern Illinois. On the Pacific Coast, the first part of the week was too cold In Washington and Oregon, but more favor able conditions prevailed during the latter part; In California, with the exception of drying winds, ths weather, though cooler than "usual, was greatly favorable. Heavy frosts occurred on the 19th and 20th in the middle and south era Rocky Mountain districts, doing consider able damage. An Improvement In the condition of Winter wheat Is reported In Kansas, Nebraska, por tions of Illinois. Indiana and Wisconsin, and the crop continues In flee condition In Missouri, except In a few s6ulheastern counties. . The reports from Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, the Middle, South Atlantic and East Gulf Stat show that the crop Is heading now, and Indi cate very light yields. Harvesting continues Ifi Texas, and will soon begin In Arkansas, Oklahoma and SoutherA Kansas. On the Pa cific Coast, the outlook continues favorable except in Southern California. The crop, how ever, is reported as unusually weedy In Ore gon. In California, Winter wheat Is ripening rapidly, and harvest will soon begin In the San Joaquin- Valley Early Spring wheat has made vigorous growth, snd thai later sown Is coming up well. Seeding Is practically finished. Orchards have sustained some damage by local storms In the Missouri Valley, and on the whole the outlook Is less encouraging than early In the season. Peaches are -dropping ex tensively In the Middles and South Atlantic States. KEW.YORK STOCK MARKET. General Drop in Prices Crop Report One of Bad Factors. NEW TORK, May 27. Today's stock mar ket was an Irregular drop over a fractional range, for tho most part below yesterday's clbslng level. There were a few exceptions among minor stacks. The recent demand for Wisconsin Central stocks continued, accom panied by rumors of buying for control. There was an upward movement in sugar when the report reached Wall street of a conference of Senators to attempt an agreement upon reci procity; but the stock dropped, back when the conference adjourned without action. A rise of nearly 2 points in American Locomotive seemed a supplement to that of yesterday In the car stocks. Pressed Steel Car reacted sharply over 3 points on the emphatic dental of yesterday's rumors of a merger with the American Car Company. Canadian Pacific con tinued by far the most active stock la the list. It dropped sharply 2 in the first few minutes of trading, but was rallied by ar bitrage buying from Canadian centers, where the stock continued at figures above the New Tork level. The reason was considered a re sult of the speculation which has followed the rise, but the conviction remains In Wall str-et (hat Important developments- are pending in the property. The absence of developments in the coal strike situation did not prevent the depressive Influence exercised by the strike, which Is em phasized, by the Increasing scarcity of coal and the growing effect -on other Industries. The Government weekly 'crop bulletin may have had some unfavorable effect, because of the delay to seeding of the com crop reported. A batch of favorable railroad earnings. Includ ing the net showing for April of a number of. Important systems, and good increases in gross earnings for the third week in May of others, was without apparent effect In the market. The money market has grown so easy, at or below 3 per cent for call loans, as to have lost Importance as a factor. Opinion Is by no means agreed In Wall street as to the effect upon this market of a declara tion of peace In South Africa. The small effect produced here, In contrast with the speculative activity abroad by the current rumors of peace, has awakened conjecture here. Of course, there Is the possibility of a. miscarriage of the negotiations, but there is also a possibility that the activity In speculation and Investment aroused by the end of the South African War will be diverted into foreign securities, shaken down as they have been by a leng period of liquidation following Industrial depression. An awakening of speculative and Industrial activ ity abroad would be likely to lead to the with drawal of large amounts of foreign capital placed in New Tork In banker loans. The effect was hardly salutary In American finan cial affairs. The bond market was dull and Irregular. To tal sales, $1,700,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call.
