BARLEY WAS BRISK
Large Sales of the Cereal
Were Made in Past Week.
WHEAT MARKET WAS QUIET
Good Supply of. Fruit, "With Price
Maintained by a Steady Demand
Oregon Peaches and Toma
toes Coming In Slowly.
There has bocn'ofily a light movement In the
local wheat market'ln thi past week. The ac
tivity In grains has been confined mostly to
barley- Large quantities ot this cereal have
been bought by Portland exporters. One of
the most prominent selling places -was Dayton.
Wash. Nearly all the crop has been bought
up and Is In the hands of exporters. A num
ber of biff sales have been announced at $19
a ton. The cereal la strong all along the
Coast. In San Francisco the market has been
steadily advancing for the past month.
"Wheatcrowers are hanging on to their prod
uct pretty -well,' and have sold only a small
fraction of the new crop. Harvestlnr Is now
well under way, and does not seem to have
been greatly retarded by wet weather. On ac
count of the comparatively small purchases of
exporters, the Cereal Is not yet freely moving
toward tidewater. Tho first carloads were re
ceived Monday. Prices have remained steady
during the week between COClc for "Walla
Walla and 02SHJ3C for bluestem. Valley has
been ouoted at 6465c, but exporters have
ceased to look to it for cargoes.
Tonnage has shown a noticeable hardening.
The engagemnt of two ships for Europe at 20s
8d and of a steamship at 27s has given strength
to charters. There are two free ships la port.
and It was generally admitted yesterday that
they could obtain 20s 3d. The owners are
firm, however, at'27s 6d.
The market In oats has not fairly opened
yet, but some transactions have been made
from $18 a ton upward. At Shaw, Marlon
County, on Monday, bids were received for &
pool of about 2000 tons, but all were rejectod
because the highest was only $15 a ton.
In speaking of the American and European
crop end the visible supply, George Broom

Commercial estimate.
This season's aggregate crop, here forecast.
Is 7,200,000 Quarters larger than last season's,
which was Itself the largest, with one excep
tion, of which we have any record.
The world's visible supply on August 1 was
11,000.000, a decrease of 6,000.000 quarters
from the visible supply of last year.
From this It will be seen that the excess of
the production of this year over last 1 Just
about offset by the deficiency in the" visible
supply, while If the depletion In- farmers' in
visible stock were also to be taken Into ac
count It would be found, we venture to state,
that there Is less wheat In existence at the be
ginning of the current season that there was a
year ago.
Russia Favorable harvest weather has con
tinued to prevail generally, and there are prac
tically no complaints, except from the Crimea,
where a spell of hot dry weather did much
damage when the crop was growing. Of the
great Spring wheat crop there are no com
plaints, and a "condition" map Issued by
the officials a short time aero shnws t'm mn
as satisfactory or good throughout the great
rroaucmg regions or tne East. Port stocks
are now reduced to about 100.000 quarters,
which is probably the smallest on record, and
naturally shipments during the week ended
August 2 were of quite modest proportions.
Roumanla Harvest is about finished, except
in Upper Moldavia, and receipts at Bcalla
hav increased to about 4000 tons per day, the
grain being mostly wheat; but there are also
some barley and oats. Wheat shipments In
creased last week.
Austria-Hungary For the wheat crop of
Hungary the official indication of the yield
has been further Increased 400.000 quarters,
the total now standing at 10.900.000 quarters.'
against 15,400.000 quarters, the final official
estimate for last year.
Argentina Our correspondent at Buenos
Ayres reports that prapects for the new wheat
crop are excellent. Wheat shipments are prac
tically nil.
Germany In the west the weather has con
tinued unsettled, delaying the ripening of
crops. In other parts of the empire harvest
work had made fair progress. Some samples
of the grain have been shown, but they have
been mostly discolored, and a good deal of
the new crop Is out of condition.
WOOL Practically nothing was done In the
woal market during the week. The wool Is
now in the hands of the dealers, and prices
were very steady. In a review of the New
York market the Journal of Commerce of
August 16 said:
The local wool market has shown signs of
Increased activity during the weeki with fair
transactions reported In several quarters.
Prices remain firm, and buyers, though
using every effort to secure concessions, are
seldom successful. On the whole, the mar
ket Is In a mere healthy condition than It has
been for some time. Inquiries have been more
numerous and many sample bags have changed
hands, orders resulting In some cases upon re
ceipt of samples Lambs.' wool has moved
well, with limited supplies only on hand. Me
dium and high-grade wools continue to be the
prime movers. Fine B supers, A wools, fine As
and Cs, with fine combings, continue in fair
request. Texas and Territory wools have not
been as active, owlngo the difference be
etween buyers' and sellers' ideas. Tho steady
tone of the carpet market has greatly encour
aged handlers of carpet wools, and. although
business In this line has been quiet, an in
creased demand is looked for at no very distant
date. The mills are in good shape, and agents
are stated to be busy fillln orders, while the
new business placed is fully up to last sea
son's averago. Manufacturers are now work
ing full time and are likely to do so for some
time to come. In foreign wools the demand
continues light, bat prices remain firm, and a
better business is looked for. Orders at pres
ent are of a hand-to-mouth character, with In
structions for prompt delivery. This would
saem to Indicate that stocks are low and will
need replenishing as soon as manufacturers
have a call for goods.
HOPS Hops wero quiet, and news from the
Valley was to the effect that the growers are
looking for better prices. Some contracts for
the growing crop at 21 cents were reported.
Advices from New Tork state that the crop of
Otsego County will bo equal to at least 60 per
cent of that of last year. In the New Tork
market business was quiet and the market was
without changes cr new futures of Interest.
There was no attempt on the part of dealers to
hurry salev they holding firm for full quoted
values. No crop news was reported received
from England or the Continent.
CANNED SALMON Of the salmon market
In New Tork the Journal of Commerce of Au
gust 10 says:
Salmon, spot and futures, claim tho atten
tion In this department. Soft sockeye. In sym
pathy with an active Interest "and reports of
probable high opening prices, has advanced
to $1 25 on tails, with, so far as can be learned,
few holders willing to sell even at that figure!
Some flats are available at $1 274. but holders
generally quote $1 35, and half-pounds are held
i STHSOc, where available. Of future sock-
eye. Coast advices report tho pack all told at
approximately 275,000 cases. One Interest has
wired a price here of $1 25 on talis, $1 35 -on
flats and S5c on half-pounds, f. o. b. Coast.
This Interest previously withdrew prices on the
$1 05 basis pn tails ant Is credited with a peck
of 5000 cases. It Is strongly Intimated that
the P. P. & N. Co. will name a price that will
regulate the market, but nothing that can be
regarded as official has been said' on this point.
At the high basis the Impression exists that
buying in this market will be limited. In
Alaska salmon the feeling Is sympathetically
stronger, but not quotably higher at the
ment. Talis are available at $1 12Vil 15.
Future red is offered at 05c. with, however, a
disposition shown on the Coast to alvance quo
tations. Columbia River salmon is held at
around quotations.
FRUIT The market Is plentifully supplied
with, all kinds, but the demand has been
steady and prices have been steady. There
has been a falling off in the Inquiry for water
melons, and stocks are accumulating. Oregon
peaches are beginning to come In from The
Dalles and Southern Oregon and are of a fine
quality.
VEGETABLES Oregon tomatoes are arriving
lh small quantities and buyers have to depnd
mainly on the California stock. The market Is
well supplied, and tho only scarcity la In sweet
potatoes.
POULTRY Receipts of poultry have been
light on account. It Is thought, of the activity
In the grain fields. Stocks are expected as soon
as the harvest Is completed and farmers have
an opportunity to arrange shipments for the
market. '

STIMULUS TO STOCKS
MORGAN'S RETURN HAS GOOD EF
FECT ON TRADING.
Tone of Money Market Is Distinctly
EasterInterior Demand lor
Funds Still Delayed.
NEW YORK, Aug. 20. Today's stock mar
ket was more broad and acttvo than that of
yesterday, and generally strong, but the
strength was very unevenly divided, and was
not consistently maintained. The hand of the
professional was quite manifest In the market
After one group of stocks bad been pushed up
to a certain extent, they would meet selling or
ders to realize In the moment that aggressive
appearance of strength was developing In some
new quarter, thus encouraging continued buy
ing by outside speculators In the stocks." which
were advanced, and thus facilitating realiza
tion. It was distinctly a Morgan market. That
is to say, the buying of stocks was based upon
the assumption that Mr. Morgan has returned
to Wall street ready to take up the broken
continuity of many Important projects which
he had under way when ho left for his vaca
tion. Some of these projects have got into a
snarl, legal, financial or speculative. Profes
sional speculators In the street have an abld-
Ing faith that Mr. Morgan will promptly settle
them all. His Immediate appearance at bis
office, going directly there from the ship, gave
additional strength to the conviction that he
would give immediate attention to pressing
problems. It Is needless to say, however, that
some of the expectations expressed by the sct
Ive speculators In the market as to the scope
and promptitude of Mr. Morgan's measurer
reached a degree of absurdity.
Th undeniably strengthening effect upon con
fidence of this capitalist's return to actlvo di
rection of affairs was promptly taken advan
tage of by various speculative pools to make
demonstrations in their favorite stocks by rap
Idly advancing prices. A distinctly easier tone
to the money market facilitated the operation
for the advance. The ruling rate for call loans
was 4 per cent, as against 4H per cent yester
day, and the market for time loans was also
called easier. The foreign exchange market
naturally hardened In consequence. Contin
ued selling of stocks for London account was
also a factor In the demand for exchange.
The Interior demand for funds seems still to bo
delayed, and bankers report that outside lend
ers were, placing their ready funds on call In
today's stock market. Owing to the large pen
sion payments and tho decline In the recent
high level of Government customs receipts, , the
Subtreasury has contributed over $800,000 to
tho money market this week. Today that in
stitution paid out $593,000 on account of gold
deposited at Pacific Coast points, which is pre
sumably Klondike gold. The Treasury state
ment from Washington, however, shows a sur
plus of revenue for tho day of $1,593,403,
which cuts down tho month's deficit about
three-quarters. ""
Unfavorable crop weather, the futility oMhe
-coal conference to effect a striko settlement.
and the violent break In Colorado Fuel on ac
count of the International conflict in the com
pany, were Ignored in the trading. The spe
cial strength of some Colorado railroad stocks
was supposed to be connected with the liquida
tion of Colorado Fuel. Recent- rumors of a
merger of Southern Railroad stocks was sup
posed to bo connected with tho liquidation of
Colorado Fuel. Recent rumors of a merger of
Southern railroads, of the Canadian Pacific's
alleged Intention to secure an entrance to Chi
cago, and of a prospective absorption by large
railroad systems ot sundry small systems, wero
all manifest Influences in the market. Froflt
taklhg was general during the last hour, and
-the closing, was active and Irregular.
Bonds were generally firm. Total sales, par
value, $2,600,000. United States bonds were all
unchanged on the last call.

WHEAT- STILL GOING UP
SHOWERY WEATHER IN NORTH
WEST CAUSES ALARM.
Shorts In Corn Are Frightened Again
by Depleted Stocks Oats
Rule Strong.
CHICAGO. Aug. CO. Wheat gained much of
Its strength from the coarse grains. There
was considerable changing going on, and this
constituted the bulk of the trade. At the
opening there was a good advance on the rains,
firm cables and damage to wheat In the shock.
There was much fear among the September
shorts over the congestion In that month, and
tho Improbability ot relief from contract re
ceipts. No contract stuff came in with the 303
cars received. The showery conditions' In the
Northwest gave rise to fears that the growing
crop In that section may be dangerously re
tarded. After the early rush of buying orders
trade was very dull for several hours, but a
good rally set In late on a fair cash demand
and 15 loads accepted at the seaboard. Sep
tember opened c u to unchanged at 70H8
70Hc, dipped to 60Thb and reacted to 703sC.
closing strong, 9S8&C up, to 70iG70Xc
Corn receipts were only 13 cars, three of
contract grade. Cables wero higher and the
wet weather badly retarded growth. It was of
ficially stated that the corn Is very green and
stocks were so depleted that shorts were fright
ened again. September closed 31c up at
62T4C
Bad reports from the oat fields caused good
buying. Commission-houses bad large orders
and local shorts were eager to cover. The
market ruled strongest on the floor at times
and held most of Its strength. " September
closed strong, ric up, at 33c
