what alterations have been made In the list
have been upward. In staple groceries the ten
dency of prices has been toward a higher level
for several weeks 'past. In. produce, especial
ly green stuff, quotations, have risen as the
season advanced. Dealings In wheat and other
grains reached large proportions, and values
are materially -higher than a week ago. The
hop .market was decidedly active until the last
&n days, and although It Is quieter now, the

WHEAT A great deal of Wheat has been
sold in the past few days. "With GOc paid in
tho Interior, it was only natural that consid
erable quantities should be turned loose. The
gradual advance In foreign and Eastern mar
kets, and particularly the- bulge at San Fran
clscosent up prices by Jumps here, and club
wheat for export purposes Is now quoted 204c
higher than It was a week ago. The same In
crease Is shown in the price of bluestem. The
strong demand from Australia, following the
drouth there, and the low freights are responsi
ble for the strength of tho California market.
Ten or morceargoes of wheat have been sold,
or are being worked, at San Francisco for Aus
tralia. Early estimates of the crop In Califor
nia were far too high. The reports at first
Indicated a yield of about 000,000 tons. Now,
that the harvest is over, the crop Is believed
to be only C00.000 tons, or a trifle over. The
extent of the wheat shortage Is shown by the
statement that there will be between 25,000,000
and 30,000.000 grain bags carried over this year,
against from 10,000.000 to 15,000,000 In ordinary
seasons.
There are now 25 ships at this sort loading,
preparing to load or available for loading
wheats Their total tonnage Is 48,330. The fleet
en route to the port numbers 42shlps of a total
of 7S.2G7 tons, and tho list Is constantly being
added to. The present quotations here for
grain freights Is about 22s Cd.
Exports of wheat from the Uplted States for
nine months;" ending with September, 1002,
amount to a total of 95,223, 1D4 bushels, the
sMj-ments from the principal customs districts

These latest estimates, with the exception of
a verv Kllrht d(rrorcft In vl.nt -v,
increase over the semI-oiIcial report Issued the
last of September.
FLOUR, FEED. ETC. The flour trade Is
booming, with a strong demand locally and for
export. Northwestern millers are overwhelmed
with orders, and all the mills are grinding to
their fullest capacity, and are still unable to
satisfy tho demand. There Is a strong Inquiry
for canroes for South Africa, and the demand
from tho Orient shows no sign of abating. The
China steamer sailing In the past week carried
tho largest cargo of flour ever taken out- of
the Columbia River, 52.570 barrels, valued at
$157,737. Reduced to wheat measure, this Is
equal to nearly 240.000 bushels. Following the
advanco in wheat, hard-wheat patents have
gone up 10c per barrel ln the week.
. MHlstufTs are also strong, but have not been
Uvanced since the last review. Oats hnvn
'tsone up 5c per cental on a. rood demand nr.
limited offerings. ana barley Is $1 per ton high
er than a week ajro.
HOPS The Portland market, though quiet at
the moment, has been very active and strong in
the past week. Numerous sales were fhade at
25e. and a number at 25fcc. but these were for
strictly choice hops. Prime hops are quoted at
about 23c. and mediums lo lower. Opinions as
to the future of market vary according to
whether a man wants to buy or sell. Many
dealers who are still in the field to buy declare
that tho top has been reached. They point to
the present lull In operations as a sign that
hops have reached their maximum value this
year, and tellevo that when no further advance
Is recorded those growers who still hold will
let go freely. On the other hand, growers point
to the statistical strength of the market, and
as the majority of the hops are In strong hands
there seems little likelihood of a stampede.
Brewers are not buying to any great extent
here, though much business of this kind Is re
ported at New York. All parties are anxious
to hear what London will do. Oregon samples
aro Just about reachins the "English market
now. and responses may be expected very short
ly. The Journal of Commerce of the 21st said:
It was learned that there 13 now in transit for
England between 5000 and COOO bales of Pa
cific, part sold to arrive and part on consign
ment. English buyers. It was stated, were
guaranteeing 2022c f. o. b. Coast without re
course on hops shipped on consignment.
There are at present about 20,000 bales of
hops store' In Portland warehouses', and It Is
. estimated .it shipments East amount to 18.000
bales.
The most interesting feature of the week In
the local markets was the -decision by Judge
Burnett at Salem holding 'hop contracts not
enforceable. The effect, of course, will not be
what it would have been had the case been de
cided a month ago. Nine-tenths of the con
tract hops have been delivered, and probably
not a great many speculators have betn caught
chort. Steps will be taken to appeal the case
to the State Supreme Court. At ay rate, the
effect of the decision, will be to put a limit
hereafter to trading in futures, and It may put
a stop altogether to contracting.
WOOL-Of Pacific Coast wools at Atlantic
seaboard markets, tho American Wool and Cot
ton Reporter of October 23 says:
Oregon wools have been more active, the
business of the week having been greatly
swollen by the sale of a large line or about
O00.0CO pounds of Eastern Oregon. This -was
very good wool, and brought a g&od price. Just
what the price was,' Is not stated, Jjut It Is un
derstood to have been within the rangd of ouf
quotations. If not slightly better. The recent
large sales noted"ln these columns from time
tor time have greatly depleted "the avatlable
supply of Oregons in this market.
California wools likewise have , been quiet,
with such sales as. have been made put through
at previous quotations. The very finest -stock
is worth 52S53cr clean, but most of the wool
Which has changed hands has not sold for more
than 4&S50c Middle county wools have eofd
at 4G5?47a Some 'defective stock, has been sold
at about a tMrd of a doliar. In California the
new Fall wools have all been sold and- scoured
out there, and none ofthem will come here In
the grease.
, The Reporter quotes Oregon wools In the
East:-' Eastern staple. 1718c per pound r do
cholce clothing, 2415c; do average, 13314c;
do heavy. 4112c; Valley Oregon, No. 1, IB
20c; do- No. 2, 19g20c; do No. 3, l&JJlBcj do
lambs, 1G317C.
FARM. PRODUCE The poultry market has
been -demoralized all week, and for several'
weeks. In fact. Receipts have continually been
ln excess of the demand, and It was with djffl
culty that prices were maintained." On several
, occasions It has been necessary to -shade quota
tions to carry through deals. When the market
was In Its worst shape It was helped somewhat
by large buying for cold storage. Receipts of
game arc large and Increasing, and this has
helped to hold poultry down. Eggs .are steady,
with a plentiful stock of Eastern on hand and
sufficient Oregon ranch to supply tho demand
for strictly fresh stock.- There are today at
least Ave. carloads of Eastern eggs on the mar
ket and perhaps the equivalent of six carloads
in cold storage. This makes some 4400 cases of
very good eggs against which the Oregon prod
uct has to comnete. Jt explains why eggs do
not go higher at a time of y.ear when stiff
prices usually prevail. And they don't go low?
er "under the big supply,' as every effort is being !
made by dealers to prevent a drop, as under
-the close margin on which eggs are traded In,
& decline might mean a loss. Butter has ad
vanced 2&c during the week. Stocks of fancy
creamery are low, and it was easy to put up
the price .a peg. Cheese Is firm and c higher
than a week, ago.
FRUITS AND- VEGETABLES This is the
season qf the year when business slackens In
the fruit trade. Summer fruits are about out
of the market, and full yarletles taking
their place. "Grapes have been lnx fair supply,
and would have been more plentiful had there
been regular steamer connection with Ban Fran
cisco. Receipts "of -Oregon grapes have also
been less than expcted. and the quality has
not always been satisfactory because of the
rain. Apples are In sufficient supply. peaches
are becoming scarce. Prices of fruits general
ly are as lastquoted.
The vegetable market is moving along satis
factorily as far as prices and the supply are-
concerned. There Is not much doing in pota
toes. Receipts of sweets have been light owing
to railroad trouble. Three cars which should
have arrived In tho past two days are tied up
somewhere down the road. Onions are dull and
weak, with a big crop and low prices here, and
lower at other markets within reach.
GROCERIES, MEATS, ETC There Is a
shortago on string and wax beans by conncrs
In addition -io many lines of fruit. Notwith
standing jthe advance In sugar In New York,
there Is no change In Pacific Coast markets.
Sugar Is usually lc higher here, but today It
Is cheaper on the Coast than In the East, so
much so that shipments to the East are being
made. The big demand for seeded raisins has
caused the firm which brought up the first car
this season to order a second. There will be a
short delivery on walnuts, owing to' the croj
failure abroad and heavy demands on Califor
nia producers. The delivery may fee .75 per
cent of orders, and It may be less. Car-lot
receipts will be three or four -weeks late.
Almonds are very firm. , .
All kinds of livestock has come In freely, but
the strong demand has helped to sustain prices.
Lard has advanced He on Portland and Vic on
Eastern brands. Pprtland dry salt meats are
down lc

Strong Market at Chicago Weakened
by Free. Selling.
.CHICAGO, bet. 20. The general situation In
wheat at the start was about the same as yes
terday, with a strong demand and a continua
tion of bullish advices from -the extreme Eas
Buying by the Northwest and Southwest dur
ing the first parf of the session caused an ad
vance. Commission houses, took advantage of
the rise In prices and sold freely, bringing
about a reaction. The dose was dull and about
steady. December opened a shade lower to 46c
higher, at 73Vs734c to 73c After selling up
to 7Sc there was a decline to 7254c. The
clofe was jower, at 7272c.
Corn was .heaVy. and with the exception of
a slight firmness near the opening on strength
In wheat, tho market was weak the greater
part of the day. December closed $$c lower,
at tWHSSOKc, ' v
Good weather and weakness In corn were de
pressing influences In oats. The close was easy.
(with December c lower, at 304c
Provisions opened firmer on commission-house
buying and higher prices for hogs at the yards.
Later the market became dull, with general
liquidation. The cIofb was dull and slightly
lower, January pork 7lc lower, lard-unchanged

NEW. YORK. Oct.- 29.-.Another advance, fa
foreign exchange to the ihrhest point reached
during the present movement, with attendant
fears of gold exports, brought further liquida
tion to the stock market today. ,A-gtat deal
of selling was-for account of the West6rn sjiee

Not a few stop-es orders were uncovered, aid
the room traders, emboldened by this shOwlaf
weakness, made'' a series of drives which le,
the list generally Jower with many ' sharp
breaks. Exchange advanced to $4 80.00, whjen.

points -above today's level. S.uch an advance
is serarded as very likely, unless the" market
shifts materially, ' and (tentative' negotiations,
wth, a view to export were ' made. The fact'
that Paris exchange ory London remained at 25
francs 12 centimes Indicated that the triangular
movement for shipping gold from this center-In;
payment of London's obligations to Paris Could
easily be arranged. ' V

tlons were extremely narrow. Colorado Puei
made a further'decllne, but the Rubber Goods
Issues were strong at'Jmproved prices. One ,bf
the redeeming -features was1 the buying for Loft
don .account to the extent of about 25,000 sharesi
but these transactions were negative, as thex
really represented New York buying; and wejri
Incidental to the change of accounts between
the two. markets. A sale of 9000 shares of Colp

and that stock made a loss of another point" 1
