COMMERCIAL AND
There vr&a nothing of special Interest In the
market situation yesterday. Produce receipt
were liberal, and prices ruled steady. Oregon
str&trberrles -were more plentiful, but the most
of the Southern Oregon receipts -were of not
much better quality than the California stock,
and sold as low as 10c and 12Vto. Some Hood
River or Dai'ea brrles arrived !n very Eood
condition, and sold at l'hic California in
good order a quoted at $1 S3 per crate.
There -was but little Improvement In the de
mand for potatoes, and as new potatoes are
reported earner In San Francisco It begins to
look as though the top price of the season was
well In the rear, and the remaining stock
would nred to be sold at lower figures. There
was a veaker fsellnff in oats yesterday, buy
ers bavins secured all that Is needed Tor the
present lor rhipment. and the local demand
being too small to make much impression on
the mari:et. Butter and eggs were In good de
mand yesterday, and poultry also cleaned up
better than usual. There were no changes in
groceries, but thero Is an increased demand re
ported for sugar. Some dealers are expecting a
change in this great staple, but as yet it Is a
difficult matter to tell whether it will be up or
down. Wlllctt &. Gray, in their latest circular,
have the following regarding sugar: s -
"The country rin as comparatively bare of
aU. fcs while wait' ., for final de elopments re
g&'ding Cuba. There are no Indications that
further concessions in prices arc likely to be
r a c in refined, unless Indeed there should bo
a break in the raw sugar market below 3-Jse
for centrifugals, which by some Is considered
rven now to be a possibility arising from tha
general situation In Europe as to the possibility
cf bcrt sowings being kept higher than the
cu rent conditions and future prospects will
t ar.ani- This Is a matter of great Importance
at the moment, and must bp watched with
carefulness, as the future of 'the market and
the welfare of the holders of the 443.000 tous
of sugar remaining in the Island of Cuba al
most entirely depend upon it."

"Wheat has slumped something over 2He per

the weakness does not seem to have affected
the local market, as the stereotyped G3"?
CO jc was etlll quoted for Walla Walla -a heat,
&jj there was ery little selling, even at thse
figures. There Is no tonnago to be provided
for In this port, and the last spot chip on Puget
Sound was chartered yesterday, to that from
now on whatever buying is done will be for
milling purposes or by people who believe
wheat Is a good commodity to have. Freights
continue weak, with a declining tendency, and
there were no takers for new-crop ships jes
terday. even at 28s Od, There Is but one
month of the season remaining, and that prom
ises to show a smaller volume of business than
was shown by any of Its predecessors.

GRAIX MARKETS.
Bears Gala Control and Cause a Gen
eral Slump In Prices.
CHICAGO, May 29. Most of the Influences
In the wheat pit favored sellers, with the sup
port from a strong quarter. ,The comparative
firmness of the foreign markets kept prices
fairly firm for the first hour. Buying by &
big bouse brought In a number of tallers and
helped prices. For a time corn helped wheai,
but it soon became apparent that the bears
had the situation In hand again. Tho weather
in the Winter wheat country was rainy, and
in the Northwest clear and warm. Bears laid
great stress on this argument, and were thriv
ing on fine crop prospects. Receipts were In
creasing. No additional export business came
to the relief, and everything slumped. July
opened a, shade to Uc lower, at 72sQ'"23ic. and
dipped to 72c closing weak. a down, at
72&072UC.
In corn, cables showed Indifference to oar
(lump yesterday, and the bull crowd supported
the market fairly well for a time. Trade
turned very bearish later on heavy recipls,
bears sold short, and crop reports were good.
July closed weak, .c lower, at 62tt3S24c.
The only feature of the trade in oats was
tho nervousness accompanying the "May deaL"
Several small traders In this option did some
business. Many of tho shorts In May are set
tling quietly with the operator who success
fully cornered that deliver. It Is now thought
the "deal" Is practically over. July followed
corn, closing weak "43 ?Jc down, at 3o"c.
The leading futures ranged, as follows:

STRIKE HURTS IjlON TRADE.
General Conditions, However, Point
to a Continuance of Ironperlty.
NEW TORK. May 29. An optimistic view of
the outlook in the iron and steel trade is taken
by tho Iron Age, la today' Issue. Tho article
says:
Requirements of the eteel trade are at pres
ent commanding the most attention. It Is re
ported that the United States Steel Corporation
is negotiating with the valley furnaces for 100,
000 tons of Bessemer pig Iron for delivery next
year, probably Tunning into the second quar
ter. This follows htavy purchases of Bescemer
pig iron by other consuming interests. If this
negotiation is consummated, the valley fur
naces will have their surplus product com
pletely disposed of until next April at the
earliest. It is further reported on good author
ity that the United States Steel Corporation
has purchased 50,000 tons of Southern basic
pig iron. The price obtained is stated to be
equal to $19 15 Pittsburg.
Hravy quantities of fcrelcn ferro-manraneBB
have been purchased, mainly for delivery In
and about Plttsburtr. aprpcpti!. orvi ...
Eastern steel works have purchased about 6000
tons of low phosphorus plr Iron In EnE-!ad .
about f22 50 laid down here. These occur
rences emphasize the activity prevailing among
st-el manufacturers.
The ontlnaed strike of the anthracite coal
miners le causing increased trouble to Eastern
consumtrs of pig iron. Several furnaces in
Eastern Pennsylvania have been obliged to
bank for lack ot fuel. Thia Is creating troublo
among foundries particularly, and Interferes
seriously with thr: booking of new business.
The belief Is now entertained that tha blast
furnace workers in Ohio and Western Penn
sylvania will not striko June 1, as had been
feared.
A lare tennage of foreign steel billets Is be
ing offered here through importing houses, so
that the supply from tblis source frould seem

to be fairly adequate for early needv Foreign
beams and other structural shapes are selling
in fair quantities. Reports from the West
say that for the first time In the history of
the, trade, Implement-makers have, prior to
June 1, placed their contrasts for their yearly
requirements.
General conditions throughout the Iron trad
continue of & character to satisfy the most
sanguine believer in a continuance of excessive
prosperity. Scarcity exists in so many lines,
and the consumers of all classes of products
are so eagerly waiting for deliverance from
furnaces and mills, that It will require a con
siderable period to catch up, even with all
works running to their utmost capacity.
FAVORABLY "WEEK FOR TRADE. "
Activity Still Rales Among the In
dastrles. NEW YORK, May . Bradstrect's to
morrow trill say:
The week's developments have been largely
favorabl. Crop conditions, particularly those
of the Spring-sown cereals and cotton, have
shown further Improvement. The labor situa
tion, particularly that In the coal trade has
likewise measurably improved, advices toward
the end of the week pointing to the anthracite
strike ending before tho position as to supplies
becomes critical. Cool weather, it is true, has
retarded retail demand and measurably checked
business with Jobbers, and h-avj frosts have
don damage to vegetables en the northern
edge of the country, but this Is regarded as a
mere temporary halt, and the general volume
of business has been helped by the large
amount booked for Autumn delivery.
Among the Industries, activity still rules,
with iron and steel, hardware, lumber, tho
building trades and bituminous coal displaying
exceptional activity. Failures continue well
down to the minimum, and bank clearings are
beginning to compare better with a year age
Railway earnings hold all the former advan
tages shown over preceding ycB. Gross rail
way earnings returns to Bradstreet'a for the
third week of May point to nearly 0 per cent
Increase over a year ago. Large fruit crops
are Indicated this year, and the same Is true
of vegetables, but the latter are backward on
cold weather. High prices Xor tobacco indi
cated that a heavy acreage will be planted.
Iron and steel are quiet as regards new busi
ness la finished products, but there are reports
of large transactions pending la the cruder
forms.

eace Tkas Apparent.
NBW TOItK, X&y . Th aew efjmrait
ments In the stock market today were of en
tirely insignificant proportions, because of ths
fear of poeslbla developments of tho triple
holiday. There was some closing of open ac
counts, and as these proved to be mostly on
the short side, Dm tono of the maj-ket was
rather firm. In sympathy with the leaders. The
movement In ths general list was 'listless and
very narrow. The leader of tho market. In
point of activity, was Reading, and Us ad
vance of nearly 2 points was attributed, in
large degree, to the demand from shorts to
cover, in ths fear that a strike settlement
might bo reached between now and next Mon
day. The Immediate aews today did not favor
such a presumption. President Fowler, of the
Ontario & Western, authorized an emphatic
denial of the reports that concessions to the
strikers were contemplated on the part of ths
operators. Th reported ntterance'ot F. P. Sar
gent, of ths arbitration committee of the Clvlo
Federation, that he believed a sympathetic
strike would open among the soft-coal miners
was also given some attention, but this did
not reassure traders short of the market auln
clently to induce them to remain uncovered for
an interval of thrco days. The advance In
Canadian Pacific was also renewed,in spite of
denials of "reported buying for control In behalf
of the Northern Securities Interest.
An interesting feature of the week's currency
movement is the shipment to Canada of some
$2,000,000 by Canadian, branch banks, which is
supposed to be dus to transactions in Canadian
Pacific Notwithstanding the movement and
the absorption of near $l,000,0CO on feubtreaa-
ury operations, the receipts of cash from ths
interior on balances are estimated, thus- far
this week, at nearly $3,000,000, thus promising
a rtrong bank statement for next Saturday. -
The promise today of the Brltith Parlia
mentary leader of a statement on next Monday
concerning the peace negotiations was regarded
j in speculative circles as tantamount to an an
nouncement of peace.
Today's bond market shared In the dullhess
of the stock market, and the closing was stag
nant below the best. Total sales, $?,230.000.
Review of the TVee".
Speculation la stocks this week has bee.n
rather -neglected, and the course of prices has
been hc!iat!ng and Irregular. This has been
partly doe to the approach- of the triple holt
day, with Us possibilities of important devel
opment, at a time when the closed markt
would preclude the opportunity for taking ad
vantage 0 them. The continuation of the an
thracite miners strike has had some repressive
Influence upon speculation, but has not weak
ened coal stocks themselves. The shortage of
coal has had a perceptible effect upon other
industries, notably Iron and $toel, and there
has been the dread that the troublT would
spread to the oft coal fields by sympathy,
which would be a damaging thins for'tho iron
trade.
Other portions of tho steI list have not
fared ro well as the coalers, and the explana
tion of the heavy tone of the market Is not
superficially plain. With the exception of the
anthracite strike, conditions have appeared ex
traordinarily favorable. In eplte of the great
shrinkage in the volume of grain trafllc com
pared with last year, railroad earnings con
tinue to show an average percentage, of In
crease over last year of 8 per cent or more.
The movement cf general merchandise, espe
cially westbound, Is very large, and railroad
rates are said to be maintained with a steadi
ness not experienced for a long" time. Ths
maintenance of rates Is attributed In a degree
to the results of Investigations by the Inter
state Commerce Commission, bringing ont the
fact of concessions on paoklng-bouse products,
and leading to the Issuance of judicial Injunc
tions to the railroad companies against disre
garding public schedules.
The news from the crop region during the
woek has been uniformly favorable. The gen
eral assumption of speculation is that the pres
ent year's corn crop will be abundant, and
only definite damsg to the .crop will disturb
that assumption.
Call Money Rate Likely ts Advance.
The Tates for call money have fallen to sufch
a low stage as to offer no apparent explanation
of the dull speculation. Bet doubt cf the
future resources of the money market may
easily have more to do In restricting specula
tion than Is evident. Not a few bankers ex
press the vfew that money rates roust advance.
and admit that they are keeping funds readily
j available in caU loans rather than tie' tflero "up
I In time loans. In the expectation that all
I classes of Interest rates are to adtanee. The
j large banking and rallroaa interests seem lo
be agreed that policy forbids the encourage
ment of speculative activity at thjs time, which
might threaten a recurrence of the unheally
conditions which have been relieved within a
few weeks by a process of eredit contraction.
The enormous borrowing abroad and from Inte
rior points which has been accomplished neces
sitates provision for future payments. Resump
tion of large exports of corn, with thq maturing
of the present crop. Is rtlled en to replenish the
f-re!gn exchange market and facilitate remit
tances for repayment of foreign obligations.
The numerous comments upon the present large
expansion of credits, both by banks and trust
companies, and the inadequacy of the bank's
cash reserves for both, is bolleved to have led
the trust companies to adopt a policy of grad
ual recuperation of their own cash reserves.
The-bond market has been dull and Irregular.
United States bonds were all unchanged, com
pared with the closlpg call last week.

NEW YORK. May 29 The Commercial Ad
vertiser's London financial cablegram says:
Business lacked activity on the exchange, due
to the postponement of a definite peace an
nouncement, and on the knowledgo that there
is a heavr bull account. Trading wa9 dull
early, but the close was steadier on Balfour's
statement, which left only tho shadow of a
doubt that he would make the peace announce
ment Monday. Consols closed at 03 11-10. aft
er having sold at 96 9-10. American stocks
ware forgotten, here, but the close was good on
New York's boost before the holidays, the coal
ers, grangers and Missouri, Kansas & Texas
being especially favored. Canadian Pacific re
lapsed to 139 on realizing sales by recent pur
chasers, but the stock rallied to 142 on New
Tork orders. The market repaid the Bank of
England a considerable amount. The market
repayments were 2.740.000. and-.government
