June 25. Wheat showed strength the first nour. The opening was a trifle weak, on lower cables and a fairly go.od weather nap. There- soon arrived, however, a batch of bullish reports of bad threshing returns, little shipments from Oklahoma, Indiana, Kan fas and Illinois because of doubtful grading, and promises of more wet weather. Elevators bought for a short time, and July wheat, which opened unchanged &c lower, at 74 74Vc, advanced to 74&c Yesterday. It was known that the short Interest was pretty well eliminated. Such a condition favored a col lopse, owing to the absence of any Interest to support the market on dips. This break came today, when the elevator Interests stopped supporting, and liberal selling was Indulged In. Lings who had "tailed" After the big bulls s-urxled to secure paper profits or to prevent actual loss. Both July and September options were sold freely. July dropped to 73$c Some support was put under the pit for a time, and a rally to 74c followed, but the close was weak, c lower for July, at 73c Corn had a good Jump at the opening, in duced by higher cables and cold, wet weather In the growing-corn districts. Shorts covered and the country bought liberally. July was pushed up to the high price of 09c, which was reached during last week's excitement. Shorts were punished to some extent, and then the market was allowed to slip back. July closed c up. at OShc September closed a thade dawn, at Glc.

POUTLAXD MaIeXKETS. r The last week of a month which Is never re garded as particularly favorable for trade is promising better than usual; and general trade for the entire month is tXe best ever recorded for a corresponding period. Wool has been Spying so freely that a larger portion of the clip has found a market than Is usually noted a month later. These heavy sales have been Induced by much higher prices than were paid a year ago. and more spirited competition for the offerings. The. season of small fruits Is near Its hqlght, and In the case of .strawberries It has been very profitable. Hops ai still scoring new records for high prices, and con tracts made tills week are at the highest fig ures ever paid fof new-crop business. The near approach of Independence day has caused an increased demand for seasonable luxuries, and In some cases slight advances are noted. Butter and eggs arc firm and higher, and poul try veal and pork weaker. "The season for, old potatoes Is about ended, and prices are at iery low ebb. WHEAT The wheat market continue rather tame In this city, and transactions are so few In number and of such Insignificant proportions that It Is a difficult matter to determine Jvst what could be secured for the cereal. Export ers are giving out quotations of COc as abput the value for export, but confess that they ore unable to secure very much wheat at that fig ure. There are two ships In the river under charter, but as cargoes for "both of them have been on the docks for a long time, their pres ence cuts no figure on the price situation, and In the absence of any pressing tonnage engage ments to be met, exporters will refrain from bidding anything mora than the actual export value of the cereal. The mills, when in the market for bluestem, have been paying quite a premium over export values. Thls premium in some cases has carried the price of bluestem well above 70c but as this figure wax paid only when the wheat was wanted for a special pur pose. It can hardly be quoted as reflecting the condition of the general market Freights continue steady, with a limited amount of chartering continually coming to light, and about 10,000 tons more headed in this direction than on a corresponding date a year ago. The only spot engagement or any thing resembling a. spot charter was that- cf the French, bark Asie. which is raid to have accepted 2Cs 3d as & partial compromise of the question which arose over the cancellation of her former charter. For July loading fix tures have been made at 25s in San Francisco, and there Is no good reason why any higher prices should be paid here. Harvest has com menced In California, and there will probably De some demand for early ships, but as there Is a large disengaged fleet on spot In the Bay City, there lir no immediate prospect for any better rates. The Commercial News, in review ing the sltuatlon'last week, cays: Harvesting has commenced In various por tions or California, -but Is not yet In full swing, owing to the fact that the cool weather during April, May and the first part of June kept the wheat from maturing rapidly. Reports In gen eral are more satisfactory than they were a week or two ago In the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys grasshoppers are doing some damage to he (rain that U not yet matured, but no great amount of damage from that source Is expected, as It is now so close to harvest time. Reports Ftlll come of a heavy crop In the Sacramento Valley, In the central part of the state, and the upper half of the San Joaquin, while some improvement is re ported in the south. Owing to the large crop of barley to be harvested, the work will have to be carrleU on well along in the season, an&. it is probable that the wheat harvest will, as a consequence, be put off Tater than would other wise be the case. The flrst shipment of wheat was received in Stockton on the 17th inst., b tire Farmers' Union & Milling Company, from J. M. Ferguson, of Lois, Tulare County. It consisted of cne carload of ?fo. 1 Sonora. ship ping wheat, and was of excellent quality. Lois is In the uplands on the west side of the San Joaquin Valley, where the grain is nearly all ready for harvest; on the other elde-of tho valley It will be some weeka before harvest time. In the local cash market not much busi ness is passing, and but few sales of new crop to arrive have bn made. The grain fleet for the month thus far consists of seven vessels, and there is one left at Port Costa, the Salnto Anne, which will be the ast to get away.beforo the new-crop business begins. The alacrity with, "which the foreign market responds to every show of strength on this side of the "water betrays a ery uneasy feeling abroad, and- f ronv -various sources It is appar ent that weather conditions are not of the best. Cable to tfth New York Herald, under data of June" 18, oontaln the following: Paris. There Is considerable anxiety regard ing the state of the .crops and the vineyards, in consequence of the'.iinlnterrupUd cold and rainy weather-In France during the last two months. , -M. Flammarlon, the astronomer, says there has been no such disastrous Springtime Blnce 1852, and -thai -meteorological predictions 'prom ise but a little better Summer. M. Jaubert, director of tho Paris Observa tory, declares th present month of June ought to be April, so far as the weather is con cerned. Snow has been falling for tho past fpur days on the lopcs of the Pyrenees and in the neighborhood jof Perplgnan. The farmers in those districts are in a state of consterna tion, and the general agricultural outlook will be gloomy sinless he weather changes. All the cereals art very backward. The ear ing of wheat is proceeding under tjie mdst unfavorable-conditions. Earing has not even commenced In the north, and the generally backward crops imply diminished quantity and poorer quality. The -e crop will certainly be short, nnd probably hariej- &Ua- Wheat has lalreedy risen In price, -and -Unless pe prospects improvffsa further rise in pricels anticipated. "Vienna. The unprecedented and persistent cold weather In Austria-Hungary is causing great apprchenslbn among those Interested In agriculture -throughout the country. In addi tion to the heavy losses already sustained by hotel And shopkeepers,"" the fruit crop has been irremediably damaged, while the prospects for cereals are dubious. Proressor Haeasler. .secretary -of the Imperial Agricultural Society, today completed a special crop report, which it was decided to bring out on account of the unusual weather. "Wheat and rye have sustained the greatest injury," says the professor, "while grain, oats and barley have been only slightly injured. The outlook for maize, which is the principal crop of Hungary, is, very poor. The wheat plains of .Hungary have been badly Injured by torrential rains." Berlin. While snow is falling in the Alps there are cold rains here and over a large part of Germany. The temperature at Berlin Is 6V degrees Fahrenhtlt, while Munich reports 47 flegrees and Metx 49. The coldest place in Germany Is Rostock, with 39 degrees, and no where In Germany does the thermometer touch, BO degrees. The rye now In flower has sustained much damage. The fruits and vegetables which were frostbitten a few weeks ago are now suffering from excessive moisture. Cherries are espe cially poor. With short Interludes of sunshine, rain has been failing for the last six weeks. WOOL Eastern buyers have gathered in about 4,000,000 pounds of wool within the past 30 days, and the prices .paid have been unusu ally high. Some choice lots of Eastern Oregon have sold up to 15c and one Jarge lot la reported to have sold for"c higher. These prices seem to be beyond the reach of the Pacific Coast buyers, and the purchases of tho mills to date have been smaller In proportion to the total amount sold than they were laet year. The Eastern market Is strong, hut un less there Is something wrong with the public quotations which come out from the East, it hardly warrants the figures that have been paid. The buying, however, is to a certain extent speculative, and there Js sueh a Crra undertone to the Eastern market that it is be lieved thai the purchasers at the recent high figures will not be losers. Under date of June 21. the New York Journal of Commerce says: Notwithstanding the Increased demand dur ing the past week in the woolen goods market, and the report that certain mills were refusing to book further orders for Fall goods, handlers, of raw wool have not as yet felt the effect. This, It Is stated, Is owing to the fact that manufacturers have enough on hand to keep them going for some little time yet. and are not Inclined to replenish until absolutely forced to do so. While there appears to be more In qulryln the local market, these Inquiries have not developed Into actual transactions. A good many sample bags have been sent out. and there haye iten assurances to the effect that If the wool proves satisfactory purchases will be made. The feeling prevails among the trade f In general that, owing to the present state of the woolen trade, manufacturers wll before long have to come Into the market for supplies. No one cares to set a limit to this, though, as It entirely depends on stock carried. A good manybave been able to get through the eeanon so far without replenishing to any extent, and at present it is thought that they have little or. nothing with which to go forward, while as .soon as they begin on their new season they will find It necessary to fill In. From the wool-growing centers reports cf active business, with close competition on prices, continue to come to hand. Buyers from this section of the country are sending in to their headquarters reports of their operations, and prices paid for the new clip show a decided advatfce.when compared with present seaboard prices. .VJI.' OPS Fourteen cents for new-crop hops was paid Tuetday, and all bids under this figure arc now being rejected. This reflects a re markably healthy hop market, and the strength that Is shown In new-crop business Is inten sified when any business Is attempted in old crop, There Is such a small am6unt of the latter available that they are hardly quotable, but holders can still secure prices equal to any thing that was paid earlier in the season. Mall advices received from England report the following: Kent and .Sussex. June 7. The hops made a very late start, but the vine has grown rap idly during the past fortnight, and it Is In some degree making good the unevenness which was at first apparent Fly have made their appearance In the plantations, and In both counties there harbeen a considerable increase of vermin during tho week. Already Lice are being propagated, bulnot much early wash ing Is proposed to be done, planters being great ly discouraged with the low prices of the last year or two. Trade during the week has been ,alow, but there is rather more demand for the lower quauiirs at irozn usfuua per nunurcu welght The demand is purely consumptive. Choice East Kents are almost unobtainable, and 5 per hundredweight has been paid on tho market for a considerable parcel. As many brewers have deferred purchasing a further ad Vance is sot at all Improbable before the new crop arrives. Advices to band from Belgium state that there Is a heavy attack of vermin on the Continent. Worcester, June ".Business has been quiet this wek, no hops having passed the public scales, bat, owing to a severe attack of blight, growers are rather less anxious to sell their better qualities, of which only a very limited supply Is now available, while inferior descrip tions are still offered at exceedingly low prices under the influence of more genial weather. Tho hop plant is making rapid arid vigorous growth, but many pteces have sufferd severely from flea and the Attack of aphis fly, which appears to be general throughout the district. .London, June 10. Borough hops There Is a. good demand for the small supplies, with a hardening tendency, but orders from provincial brewers are coming less freely. The hops left on the market are only estimated at 50C0 to J 0000 pockets. California are quiet but firmer, with best quoted up to lOfis. FRUIT Ten carloads of bananas have .reached Portland within 10 days, and as they struck a market already well supplied with native fruits, they have been a drug on the market, and the hawkers have been selling finer fruit than usually falls Into their hands. Much of -the stock was too ripe for shipment, and the losses have been heavy. The berry market has firmed up a little, and strawberries were held yesterday at 0c for the bestr Rasp berries were selling at the same figures. Cali fornia peaches of fair (quality are plentiful at 90c per box. and apricots at 7590c per box. Oregon cherries are in fair supply at 710o per pound. Oranges and lemons are firm and higher. Late Valenclas are selling up as high as J4S4 SO per box and lemons are in demand at f5 per box, with come prospect of even higher prices within the next few days. POTATOES AND ONIONS The seaspn for old potatoes Is practically over, and the stock still on hand will be sold at low prices or fed to hogs. Best old Burbanks are moved wjth difficulty at WKJCOc, except in a small way, when 75e is occasionally obtainable. New Cali fornia Early Rose potatoes are plentiful at ?1 25 per cental, and Garnet Chiles and Peer lens at $1 50 per cental. New Oregon potai toes have not appeared yet, but are due most any timet California red onions are selling at 1. and yellow Danvers At $1 SO per cental, with supply large and lower prices not im probable "BUTTER Tho receipts of sdme of the fancy select brands of creamery butter are inade quate to the demand, and while all of the stock that is received will not atandata advance. It Is. pretty certain that a good portion of the creamer of flrst grade could bo moved at 20c per pound, and sonde dealers are considering the advisability of asking still higher prices. The demand from Paget Sound cities is greater than ever, and it Is not only reducing the sup plies after the stock is received here, but the Seattle buyers are going right Into tho Wil lamette Valley and buying heavily Irom pro ducers who, heretofore have been expected to keep Portland stocks up to full proportions. Store butter is In good demand for shipment to outside DOlhts at 15c, with a shade more paid for best sTock. EGGS High prices for meats of alt kinds have created an Increased demand for eggs, and In spite of very satisfactory receipts and the Importation of an occasional car from the East, prices have steadily advanced, and yes terday the market was quoted, firm at 19c for choice candled stock, with" seconds selling at 17&18c Puget Sound buyers are still taking a great many Oregon eggs, although a number of carloads of Eastern eggs have been received at Seattle within the past few weeks. POULTRY Receipts have been somewhat lighter than last week, but in spite of the near approach of Independence day and the attendant holiday demand, prices have not Im proved much. For best old hens in good con dition, $5 per doxen js the lop figure, and mot of the offerings go around 4, with mixed sell ing at $3 CO. Springs are also much easier, and sell at il 5033 CO per dozen, according to size and condition. If there Is no Increase In receipts, a recover' may be expected before July 4. Ducks and geese are also In poor demand, and quotations are to a large extent nominal. Turkeys are not wanted. Grain, Flour, Eic.

Lovr Level ol Activity for the Year Nearly Reached. NEW YORK. June 25. The, dealings In etocks fell to near the low level of activity of the year again today. Tho movement of prices was narrow and Irregular. For the principal active stocks there was good support, and the undertone of the raarkot was rather firm, but there was no disposition to buy. In view of the uncertainty hanging .over the market. There was a fairly general upward movement in the early dealings, "which probably came from bear traders who sold short last evening on the apprehension tbat the King of Englanda Illness mrght terminate fatally overnight. There was buying here for London account, prompted by the, same technical cause which served to bring a halt to the advance in ster ling exchange. The local money market was Also distinctly firmer In tone, and encouraged bankers to sell some sterling loan bills. Not withstanding a further recession in the prices of sterling at Paris, there were no engagements of gold for -export. There was nothing loathe news from London, as It reached Wall street, to account for Any strength. In tho stock roar-i ket, as the,, general fear was- that the Illness of the king of England would terminate fa tally. But tho sentimental effect of yesterday's sudden announcement ' was somewhat disap pointing. Nevertheless, there is something to be apprehended from the direct financial tosses Involved in the abortive preparations for the coronation. There was nothing in the news of the day to account for a rise in prices of stocks. The crop news was rather neutral. Traders who bought Read!ngprpfessed some confidence that 'the strike w?as tp be settled, and they had news of some further returns to work by strikers, but there was nothing llko a general demand for the coalers. Colorado Fuel was moved up 3!4 points on account of the session of the directors to take action on the dividend, but the gain was entirely wiped out without any news reaching the public to account for either the rise or reaction". A late advance in St. Paul "made the closing' steady, but very dull. There was Jittle doing In bonds, and the mar ket was irregular. Total sales, jar value, $2,015,000. United States bonds were all un changed on thejast call.. ' Closing' Stoclc Quotations. 1 S STOCKS.
