Harvesting of the Winter-wheat crop
Is well under 'way at most points couth
of Snake River; and there is an attend
ant blr demand for seasonable staples
of all kinds. July trade, as reported by
ail -wholesalers and reflected In bank
clearings, has run ahead of that for any
corresponding month in the history of
Portland. Price changes for the past
wev-k havo been inconsequential, except
a decline of $0 per ton in salt, effective
today.
With harvest ajt full. swing in tho Winter
Wheat sections near Portland, there Is, as
usual, a big demand for seasonable staples,
and while the city trade is somewhat restrict
ed, the demands from the country were never
so heavy in all lines as they are at tho present
time. The crop of cereals -promises to break
all previous records. Wheat may be a little
short of last year In yield, but this shortage
VllI bo more than made good by the remark
able yield of oats and barley, ao that as far
as supplying trade collateral is concerned, the
cereal crop as a whole will be better than that
of a year ago. In some of the new sections
Vhere farmers havo Just started operations,
there Is considerable demand for money needed
to handle the crop, but in Borne of the older
sections, where Ave good crops have been har
vested In as many years, the Interior banks
seem to have plenty of funds without calling
on the city. Tho movement of money to the
Interior in the aggregate, however. Is greater
than that of former years, the Increase being
caused by development In all branches of agri
culture, and by tho greatest industrial activity
that the Pacific Northwest has ever known.
Price changes for the past week have been
inconsequential. Wheat is settling down to a
new-crop basis, and oats and barley prices are
also undergoing a slight adjustment, which is
always due when the new crop begins coming.
There is less activity in hops this week, al
though no apparent weakening in prices. The
California fruit season is at its height, and
receipts have been very heavy locally. These
receipts are being supplemented by the advance
guard of the Oregon peach crop, the early va
rieties being quite plentiful. New potatoes
are increasing in supply and weakening in
prlc?. Eggs and butter are eaeler under good
receipts and hot weather. Pork and veal are
holding quite firm, and poultry Is moving all
right. There is considerable firmness, but no
change in prices In staple groceries.
"U HEAT A few parcels of new-crop Walla
Walla wheat have changed hands slnco last
wek, at about CSo per bushel, compared
Rivh G4-g15c raid for old crop when it is
needed for special purposes. The sales of
new-rrop wheat have not amounted to much,
jr.d viv' generally -brra made by men who
wanted to make a sure thing of COc net on at
least a portion of their wheat. Not enough
wheat has as yet reached the warehouses to
cause much of a buying -movement, and most
of the exporters who have early tonnage to
take care of havo prepared to load It with old
crop wheat already secured. Crop reports from
cast of the mountains are to tho effect that last
week's wind storm threshed out considerable
wheat and barley, some estimates placing the
loss in Umatilla and Walla Walla Counties
as high as 1,500.000 to 2,000.000 bushels, with
the damage still going on, but on a milder
scale
North of Snake River very little damage Is
reported, and while -thore Is yet a cbanco for
the Spring wheat to be cooked by hot winds,
the season is so far advanced that the liability
of damage lc greatly lessened. In the Wil
lamette Valley, the fields are showing the effect
of the continuous downpour of rain which last
Spring soaked the fields for weeks, preventing
the sowing of Spring grain and seriously dam
aging the Winter wheat. There" are some good
patches of wheat, but the yield of the Valley In
the aggregate promises to fall short of that of
a year ago. As but four cargoes of Valley
wheat were shipped last season, indications
now are that Valley wheat will not be In the
European market during the coming season.
The freight situation continues of absorbing
interest, and In spite of the comparatively low
rates, and the efforts of owners to prevent fur-
the declines, the tendency for the moment"
seems to be downward. A spot ship is reported
fixed in San Francisco at 25s, and as Portland
has been on even terms with the Bay City on
tonnage to arrive. It is not Improbable that a
25s rate will be In evidence her. However,
when rates .get down around 2Ss they are ap
proaching an unrerouneratlve point for tho
owners, and it will not do to figure too se
riously on much of a drop below that figure.
The statistical position of shipsas compared
with any previous season isVeak, but It roust
be remembered that last year the season opened
about 14s higher than the opening this year.
In other words, the freight market a year ago
was susceptible to a drop of 14s, while this
season a drop of half that amount would send
a large fleet of vessels Into retirement, and
the old law of supply and demand would put
freights backyto remunerative rates.
As matters now stand, there seems to be &
strong probability that freights wljl remain
about where they are until well past the turn
of the year, a possibility that they may ad
vance slightly, and a perhaps greater possibil
ity that temporary sinking epells may crowd
them down around 25s. The tonnago in sight,
near and remote, taken In connection with
world-wldo conditions which regulate freight
rates, certainly seems to warrant the belief
for home feeding to animal, etc, because of
the shortage In corn and oats, but It we allow
that the quantity named represents the excess
of feeding on the crop of last year over what
we now know must be a considerable amount
of feeding frcm the crop of this year, before
the new yield of corn It available, we still shall
have a difference of fully 75,000,000 bushels for
deficiency In possible exports, without taking
into account the natural Increase In home pop
ulation. The excess of our exports for the fiscal year
recently closed was barely 25,000,000 bushels'
over the total of the preceding 12 months. This
would leave a deficiency of fully 40,000,000
buihels If tho foreign call on our present crop
were to fall back to the normal dimension. But
It now looks as If It wilt not do anything of
the tort. According to Bradstreet's, tho world's
visible supply at the beginning of this month
was only 86,000.000 bushels, which Is 17.000.0CO
bushels less than in the Letter year. Foreign
stocks are low, and European crop prospects
poor In the aggregate, for the weather over
there has been about as awkward as with us
during the last two months. It may be the
Frenchmen are taking a leaf out of Russia's
book. In regard to crop statistics, or It may
bo they do not know. But seeing that prices
in the French markets are "away up," the
practical Indications fax'or the theory that the
crop there Is going to be a very small one.
The Argentine surplus Is exhausted, little more
can come thence for many months, and the out
look in India is very low.
The Liverpool Corn Trade News, under date
of July 8, has the following regarding the
conditions abroad:
Russia Our Odessa correspondent's apprehen
sions, expressed last week, seem in a fair way
of being realized, for yesterday wo received a
cable from a neighboring district. NIcolaleff,
stating that continued rain and wind were be
ing experienced, which, as they have now last
ed a fortnight, or ever since harvest com
menced, mutt.be prejudicial to the crops, at all
events to the quality. Our Odessa correspond
ent, writing under date of July 2, says that
within a ?0-mile radius of Odessa the outlook
is bad, and that consequently the early dellx--erles
of the new crop will be affected. The
districts where the best accounts come from
are in the Upper Dnelper, Alexandrovosk. Nlco-
poL etc., and the Akkennan district is wen
spoken of.
Roumania Splendid hot weatner in ine .uraii portiana

vesting of wheat commenced In that region Seattle ..
early last week. Some barley was also cut, Spokano
and. Judging from early samples, the quality
of this article is poor, both as regards weight
and color. It is expected the later Spring
sown variety will bo much better. Arrivals of
the new crop of wheat and barley should be
come fairly heavy early In August. If not a
little sooner. At the time of writing; five days
ago, the weather had broken under badly,
and floods of rain are causing apprehensions.
Austria-Hungary The weather has become
hot and dry, and a further Improvement Is re
ported In the crop situation. A few complaints
of damage and excessive beat are to hand, but
they are probably merely local. The chances
are strongly in favor of the wheat crop of the
dual empire turning out considerably heavier
than last year's poor result.
Indian Private reports describe the Kurra
chee crop as turning out better than expected.
The official memorandum. Just received by
mall, estimates the outturn at only 11 annas,
or CO per cent of a normal. We notice that
prices In most districts, according to the official
memorandum." are much lower than in 1901 or
1000, which is somewhat surprising, seeing
tha.t a famine is supposed to be affecting large
parts of that empire.
France Similar weather conditions have pre
vailed in the republic as on this side of the
Channel. In the principal wheat-growing areas
the plant has bloomed under satisfactory con
ditions. Cutting of rye will commence shortly,
and of wheat In some really Important dis
tricts by the 20th Inst. It Is expected that
the new crop will be rushed to market to catch
the prevailing prices, which are deemed by
agriculturists, as a rule, as very satisfactory.
The demand for off-coast cargoes, in face of
the flno weather, has subsided.
WOOL The local wool market still maintains
a healthy tone, and a few sales have been
made during the past week at prices fully up
to any that have been paid this season. East
ern buyers are still cruising around the Interior
wool districts, and the sales to date havo been
much larger than at a corresponding period
last year. Tho tone of the Eastern market
remains firm, and on the subject of territory
wools, the American Wool and Cotton Reporter,
under date of July li, has the following:
A good-sised business Is being done, although
some houses report a quiet week in their terri
tory, wools. In fact, the first two days of the
current week have seen & lessening of the in
terest, which probably culminated for the week
on Friday last. The territories selling are
both of old and new wools, perhaps rather
more of the latter. It can honestly be said
by. many houses that the Bupply of old wools
has been well cleaned out, for In a good many
cases this is true. Cleaned out Is a relative
term, and may mean much or little. As, com
pared with the supply of wool which the dealer
has, or will have, his supply of old-wools real
ly Is pretty short, but it can be said, and safe
ly, that there is still a good deal of old wool
held on the market, and for various reasons.
One Is Illustrated by the case of a certain lot
of wool priced some four months back and as
yet a bit above tho market. No doubt some of
the old wool has come over to the present time
for this very reason, the fact that the market
has not until now. If even now, come to the
point whloh tho holder desires reached. It
Isn't at all easy for any house to force the
price up, although all have wools for which
I they desire more than they can at present get.
All the new wools celling appear to be from
points of early clipping, suoh as Texas, Cali
fornia, Idaho and Wyoming, with WJtne Ne
vadas and Utahs. Considering the supply of
Texas and of California, a good deal has been
Bold of these wools within the last few days.
These are a very satisfactory wool for face
goods and for certain classes of mills are, there
fore, particularly desirable. The supply of wool
from these two sections is less and Ins everx
yesr, and the supply of Texas is said to be
unusually small, the Spring clip not amounting
to more than (1,000,000. The increase in the
acreage of corn in Texas, and of cotton also, is
largely responsible for tho decrease in Texas
flocks.
The clean basis for fine medium territory ap
proximates 45c. seldom going below that, and
some good fine medium getting up a cent -or
two higher, sometimes because the buyer did
not know It, sometimes because the wool was
really worth the price. Fine territory is sell
ing at 474Sc, clean, although in some cases
It is reported to have brought half a dollar.
It Is by many believed that the trade is grad
ually getting through with wools that can prof
itably be sold on a 45c basis.
HOPS The hop market seems to have lost
some of its ginger, no new contracts being re
ported for the past few days, and Eastern ad
vices arc to the effect that the market is hard
ly as Arm as It was a short time ago. At the
same time, 18c Is reported bid for new-crop con
tracts, and growers are not showing any dispo
sition to accept 4hat figure Tho condition of
the New Tork yards continues to be quite a
bullish factor in the situation, and under date
of July 15 the Watervllle Times says:
The long-walted-for hot weather came last
week and this, and It has done all kinds of
growing crops much good. In the best hop
yards its effect can be seen In the more rapid
growth of the vine, hut Its effect on the new
yards and those whoso growth Is stunted and
backward is hardly perceptible. The yards set
out last year are considered on all sides as
failures, so that the additional acreage in the
way. of new yards will cut no figure In this
year's yield. The weather will have to be well
nlsh perfect from now on to cause very many
urally, every creamery In the country makes
the finest butter that is made, and should se
cure the top price, and every retailer should
secure that butter at the bottom price. A few
brands of extra" fancy butter with ' an estab
lished trade or moving 'without difficulty at
22J4o-in fact, they have to. move at that fig
ure, or they will be shipped to Puget Sound.
Ohers, perhaps equally good, do not clean up
very readily at 20g21c. and, to prevent a
blockade, are going Into cold storage by the
ton. The weather Is warm, and some of the
receipts this week are trickling out- of the
cracks in the boxes on arrival, all of which
does not Improve the demand or help the sale.
Store butter Is easier at quotations. Volley
creameries have shortened their output a. lit
tle, but the water has subsided and left the
Columbia River creamleries with an oversupply,
receipts from this quarter being the largest of
the ceason, with no prospect of a shortening
so long as the pasturage remains good.
. EGGS Hot weather seems to have curtailed
the demand for eggs, and while some dealers
are still making an effort to secure 22'.c for
best "Stock, they ere offering at 21c, and In
round lots at even less. Tho Puget Sound mar
ket, which heretofore has offered an outlet for
the surplus from this city, is now handling
Eastern eggs, and as they can be laid down In
Seattle at less money than Is demanded for
Oregon ergSr they have the call In that mar
ket. POULTRY The decidedly low prices at which
web-footed fowls have been moving for the
past month has at last resulted In curtailing
shipments, and, while the demand has not Im
proved the sidewalks are no longer cumbered
with coops of ducks and geese which were
difficult to movo at any old price. Chickens
continue in good demand, and everything that
has been received this week sod readily at
good prices. Tho local demand Is not heavy,
but the out-of-town Summer resorts are good
buyers, and some of the dealers havo standing
orders to ship everything that they get hold of.
Springs ore preferred, but there Is also a good
demand for old hens and large mixed coops.

Advance of Great Northern,
NEW YORK, July 23. Tho stock market
8galn demonstrated Its absorptive power today,
and made a. various but quite convincing show
of strength, notwithstanding the appearance of
a reactionary tendency In some of th stocks
which wro tempted to realize by the hlgfc
price attained, and a few cases of positive
weakness. The volume of dealings was again
below 1,000,000 shares, and the bulk of the
dealings was congested in a very few active
stocks. It was obvious, nevertheless, that the
bull campaign was still In force, and that
largo and powerful capitalists were still com
mitted to the long side of tho market. Not
much attention was paid to the news of tho
day, which was somewhat weak In its bearing
upon values of securities. The speculation
shifted from one to another quarter of the
market during the progress of rotation in which
skillful speculative leaders kept the movement
of prices equalised from time to time, and
without regard to new developments. The
weekly crop bulletin of the Weather Bureau
was Interpreted .favorably on the whole, espe
cially that of corn, and turned the scale of
sentiment In favor of the advance.
Some disappointment was felt over denials of
yesterday's rumors that anthracite mining
would be resumed on August 1, and the coalers
and Eastern railroads generally, with the ex
ception of an early advance In New Tork Cen
tral, were almost stationary. A feature of the
day was the marking up of various dormant
stocks which havo not shared in the recent ad
vance. This tendency extended to the North
ern Securities Company on the curb, which
rose buoyantly to 110,
Great Northern preferred advanced VA. but
lost half of It. These movements were simul
taneous with the publication of an abstract of
tho Indenture securing the new Oregon 8hort
Line collateral bond. This showed that pro
vision is made for allowing that the Northern
Securities stock deposited as collateral for
theso bonds shall be, allowed to share in any
reorganization project or further union or
merger or sale and distribution of the com
pany assets. The profit-taking In Pennsylvania
was somewhat aggravated by the action of tho
New York Aldermen In rejecting the Pennsyl
vania tunnel contract. Brooklyn Transit was
decidedly weak, owing to the belief that the
company's bid for construction of the East
River tunnel will fall of acceptance.
The granting of a stay of the Amalgamated
Company's Injunction against tho workings of
a disputed mine by a rival was held to explain
th reactionary tendency in that stock. There
were striking upwara movements in various
specialties, which, were due to purely Indi
vidual causes or manipulation.
The expectation that yesterday's engagement
of gold for export would be canceled was only
partly realized, and there was a further en
gagement by another Arm of 51,000,000, thus
bringing tho exports for the week up to $2,750,
000. The sustained steadiness of the exchange
market indicated that the shipment Is in di
rect settlement of foreign obligations. London
continued to sell stocks in this market. The
call money market was somewhat firmer, and
tho time money market distinctly so, but this
did not seam to disturb the equanimity of the
buyers of stock. Active profit-taking made the
closing irregular and the net changes mixed.

CHICAGO. July 23. Wheat ruled about
steady." The opening was a little higher on
cablos and the weather, which was a little
showery, and It was expected to be rainy to
morrow. The Government report also indicated
damage to wheat. Commission houses, how
ever, had stuff for sale, the outsider was keep
ing out of tho market because of fears of ma
nipulation, and receipts were very good. The
main bullish incentives which brought a late
rally after the early dip were the depleted
L stocks, the very poor grading of the rtcelpts
and local thunder storms. The prospects for
export business were somewhat Improved, but
tho cash demand was only fair. There was re

The Eastern wheat market seem to remain
under tho lnfluonce of the weather much longer
than usual this season, and a ray of sunshine
in Chicago will knock a fraction off the price
almost any time. That tho arguments are not
all on the side of the bears, however, Is ap
parent from the following circular, sent out
to the trade by a prominent commission-bouse
In the Windy City:
The croo is llrht. and It is late. It will be
from 123,000.000 to 150.000.000 bushels less than
that of last year. If fair harvest weather ac
company the further march of the reaping ma
chine In its progress northward, the Winter
wheat Is, and must continue to be slow in com
ing to market, and a much larger percentage
than usual is of poor quality, this reducing the
yield of flour from the average bushel of grain.
The present range of prices for wheat Is con
sistent only with the notion that thero Is plenty
of the grain in hand and In sight for all needs,
and that it Is likely to be supplied as fast as
wanted for many months to come. If that no
tion proves to be false, prices will have to ad
vance. Now the fact, so far as can be ascer
tained. Is that the notion Is ljadly wrong. In
a formor letter, we called attention to the cir
cumstance that, whether our crop of last year
was 748,000,000 bushels, or any other claimed
quantity. It was not equal to the demand, this
being proven by theadmitted condition that
stocks In first and subsequent hands are les,s
than those of a year ago. The bears Insisted
that 50,000,000 bushels was a libera) allowance
FRUIT Several hundred boxes of Oregon
peaches came In from tho East and South yes
terday, and prices were weak, large quantities
being turned over to the haukers-to dispose of
for what they would bring. The best of the
Oregon stock refused to move at anything above
50c, and California peaches were plentiful at
65380c for best freestone varieties. Another
car of bananas came in yesterday, most of
them being, very ripe, but proving good sellers.
Watermelons sold well yesterday, and nearly
all of the best stock cleaned up. The grocers'
picnic caused an early closing with many of
the stores yesterday, and some pretty good
sized stocks of fruit were carried over.
SALT Tho salt trust Is after the independent
dealers with a vengeance, and the cut of $8 per
ton. made a few days ago, will bo followed
today by another out of $6 per ton on the re
fined grades, and $7 50 per ton en the coarse
article. All of this reduction was due to tho
importation of 1500 tons on the ship Sierra
Estrella, and as another cargo is now on the
way, salt consumers stand a good chance to
set what Is coming to them, for a few months,
at least.
