Fall business in the history of the local trade
Is now under way. Tho demand Is , equally
grcl from the city and the country.. and prom
ises to keep up- for the remainder of the month.
Prices in the staple line show a general stiffen
ing up, and most of the 'list is materially
higher than It' was "at the beginning of the
6eason. In produce lines trade is reported fair
ly good. Cereals have been active and. some
what exalted during the week. Tho hop mar
ket has picked up under the influence of for
eign buying, but quotations are about as they
ere at the last weekly review.
WHEAT The local market during the week
has ben active, and prices generally were
very f.rm. following the sensational advances
at San Francisco. Now that the flurry there
has quieted down the trade In the Northwest
has also cubsided somewhat, though values
hav? m Teceded from the high level reached
during the boom. Exporters are" quoting club
at OS j 70c, and bluestem at 7374c as safe
shirring quotations. Prices paid -for some lots
have been from 23c higher, the mills espe
cially blading up. The local market yester
day dU not show much life. San Francisco
advices came through firmer, and the East a
Ehado off. The Liverpool market was un
changed and Antwerp c lower. There are 20
ships la port, with a tonnage of 47,008 loading
or available for grain. The en route list num
bers 37 vessels of a total tonnage of 73,030.
Of the situation in California, the San Fran
cisco Commercial News Says:
Estimating the wheat crop a.t 700,000 tons,
and the carry-over at 140,000 tons makes an
available supply for the season, of S40.OO0 tons;,
exports of wheat and flour for the first-four
months were 150,115 tons, and local consump
tion about 123,000 tons, making. 275,115 tons
dlsrcsed of thus far, and leaving 5C4.8S5 tons
for' disposal the next eight months. Local
consumption win amount to 248.000 tons, leav
ing a balance of 310,883 tons for eight months'
exportation.
Discussing the foreign situation, J. W. Rush,
cf London, writing to the Northwcstern Miller,
says.
I rriFt confess that. I am uuabla to believe -In
any important advance In wheat prices, un
less tb.2 Argentine wheat crop should prove a
failure, of which there are no present signs.
On the contrary. I have been cabled" reports'"
from reliable sources this week, which ray that
in all rrobablllty the crop will be an extra
ordinarily good one. One Bueno3 Ayres Journal
ventures to predict- that the surplus will
arr.ount to 2,000,000 tons, while the last year's
sunlus has been only about 630.000 tons. In
1030, however, about 2,000,000 tons were ex
ported, so that there is nothing very unprofit
able In the present estimate. If the weather
remains favorable. If this anticipation of a
surplus of 2,000.000 tons should be fulfilled I
am much afraid that we shall see lower, in
stead of higher, prices in the near future.
A summary of the last two seasons' Imports
.of wheat and flour into each of the importing
countries for 12 months ended August 31, with
my latest estimate of what will be required in
the present season, follows:

I am disposed to raise the requirements of
the United Kingdom Tcr the reason that a
much larger proportion than usual will be
used for cattle .feed.
When one reflects- that the Importing coun
ties requite no less than 55,000.000 quarters.
of 440,000,000 bushels, and that the United
Stater can. at the mbst, spare probably only
200.COO.000 bushels, it will be seen that there
Is no superabundance in prospect, and. Indeed,
competition among the buying countries would
be quite enough to make wheat safe at Its
rrecnt level If It were not for the sentimental
effect of a large Argentine crop.
Ucerbohm says:
The United Kingdom Is beginning to realize
that European requirements' of wheat are muoh
larger than expected, and consumption larger
than usual on account of high prices of pro
visions; United Kingdom receipts for four
weeks have been very heavy, yet very little
has been stored, demand having kept up with
the supply.
FLOUR, FEED. ETC. Flour followed the
advance In wheat, but at the moment the
market does not show the strength It did a few
days ago, and quotations are all about as last
reported. The 'local demand Is still good, and
tho inquiry from the Orient and South Africa
shows no signs of diminishing. There Is not
enough tonnage available by several thousand
tons for November-December flour loading for
the Orient. The market for mill feed is steady
at the old quotations.
Oats are strong, with a hardening tendency,
dealers quoting No. 1 white at $1 101 15 and
gray, $1 051 10 per cental. Very fancy gray
oats frefe" from cheat .would sell up to the price
named for best white. Barley is steady to firm,
with trading quiet and quotations unchanged.
HOPS The entry of a London buyer aroused
what had become a rather quiet market. Tho
price for choice hops hovers around 25c. with
some sales reported up to 23t4c The largest
sale of the week was In Washington County,
where John Carmlchael bought 1000 bales at
25Uc from Henry Hannan and Robert Porter.
Two thousand bales have been taken up to
date for English shipment. It is reported that
dealers are becoming free sellers.
In former years when prices reached a figure
whlfh the brewers thought too high, they re
sorted to the hop extract, and there is but
little doubt that also this year this article will
not be lost sight of by them. In the- many
jfcars when hops have been sold at prices
ranging from Cc to Sc. the manufacturers have
not been lazy about securing crops for that
purpose, and -arc now already beginning to
offer the extract to brewrrs at a low figure.
A round of this hop a:tract is equal to 12
,-pounds of hops, and is used in proportion of
half extract and half hops. A good deal of
lupuline 13 ufed whenever prices have a tend
ency to be high.
A dispatch from Marysvilie. October 21, says:
Hops are booming. The highest price paid
In the Sacramento Valley dUtrlct is 24-4c, but
25c will soon be touched. It Is even expected
that second-grade hop's will touch that figure.
Eight carloads' were shipped from Yolo County
yesterday to Sacramento, destined for New
York, where 33c and 33c a pound Is being paid.
Of the 13.000 bales of 'first-grade hops In, this
district, only about 3000 are In growers' hands.
WOOL The American Wool and Cotton Re
porter of October 30 says of Western wools at
Atlantic seaboard mark'et:
Following the large business previously noted,
Oregon wools have "been comparatively quiet.
Sales of Eastern staple are reported at lS10c.
Prices arc firm on all kinds of Oregon wool3,
owing -partly to the limited supply. California

FARM PRODUCE Commission men have
the same report' to make as to the poultry
market. Front street Is badly overstocked,
and has been foe several weeks. Some houses
have three or four dozen coops on hand al
ready, and more are coming In by every train
and boat. The demand" Is very slow, and prices
are weak and apt to go lower. People In the
interior are advised to keep back their poultry
until the situation Improves.
There Is something of a flurry in the cheese
market. Stock3 are low and prices strong and
advancing. Owing to the scarcity, a large sup
ply Is coming In from the East.
Butter continues firm at. the recent advance,
with the market in better shape, so far as
supply is concerned. Yesterday's receipts In
cluded 0G capes from Tillamook, which Were
needed ,as the Oreson supply had run low.
Eggs are steady at former quotations, fresh
ranch bringing 30c and Eastern 2Sc. There Is
a plentiful quantity of the latter on the mar
ket, also an abundance of coal-storage eggs.
The wholesale grocers and commission men
held a meeting yesterday to discuss the ques
tion of empty egg 'cases and poultry coops.
Hundreds of dollars have been lost by the lack
of system In dealing with this matter, and
tho Front-street people think it Is time to call
a halt. It Is no uncommon thing for a man
up the country to write that he has some eggs
to ship, and request three or four or half a
dozen cases and never send them. back. In
stead they go to Seattle or San Francisco, or
some other place, and the local dealer is out
the price of the case. The same thing Is done
with empty poultry c8ops which commission
men here provide for Interior merchants and
farmers, and never see again. In order to re
form this abuse It is proposed to charge for all
"empties" sent out, as Is done in other cities.
Local houses will probably come to an agree
ment to work in harmony in this matter.
FRUITS AND. VEGETABLES The week,
was only fairly satisfactory, so far as the
amount of business la concerned, which, per
haps, should bo expected at this time of year.
The list of Summer and early Fall varieties is
being gradually reduced, and the bulk of trad
ing in fruit is In apples, pears, ' grapes and
tropical varieties. Receipts of bananas have
been quite large, and some very fine shipments
have been received. Oranges and lemons are
not plentiful. The grapes received from California-
In the latter part of the " week were
mostly in poor condition. The market Is flood
ed with apples, and though th stock Is good,
the movement is slow, and prices are barely
maintained. . There is no shipping demand at
present, and the local trade cannot absorb all
that came in. Many Front-street houses de
cline to take any more apples on consignment.
The vegetable market is about as last re
ported. Potatoes and onions move slowly.
Sweets are In sufficient supply now, but on
several days the stock ran low.
MERCHANDISE Aside from the activity of
the grocery market, there Is little to say of
the situation locally. Price changes have been
few during the week, and what alterations
have been made during the week have been
.toward a higher leveL San Francisco advlce3
say of lans:
The market remains unfavorable to the buy
ing interest, but therp Is not much activity,
prices being in the main at too high a range
to warrant Eastern dealers taking hold freely,
although the Eastern "markets are firm, with
tho crop on the Atlantic side light and of gen
erally poor quality. New York is' now getting
some beans from Europe, and Canada, but
there Is no certainty that the East will be able
to import very heavily at better than or at as
good figures as purchases can be effected In
this state. Shipments now being made out
ward from here are mostly of beans secured
before prices touched present comparatively
high levelB.
Of the season's aspara'gus pack, -a San Fran
cisco authority reports:
The asparagus pack, as estimated by a lead
ing house here, is 230,000 cases of 24 2-pound
cans. This is an increase of 30,000 cases over
last year, and the pack of 1003 will probably
bo even larger. There Is a good demand and
very case will probably- be sold. About one
half of the pack has been put up by Robert
Hlckrcott. the pioneer asparagus canner. who
Is a grower as well as a manufacturer. He
expects to raise a large crop on Bouldln Island
next year.

NOT DUE TO POLITICS
PROSPECT OF GOLD EXPORTS DE
PRESSES STOCK MARKET.
No Revival of Trode Follows the
ElectionsLively Selling Move
ment Canscs Lo-rrer Prices.
NEW YORK. Nov. 5. The hopes deferred
of some of the large speculative holders o!
stock mudo their Influence felt In today's stock
market. And the renewed disappointment of
these hopes wa? reflected in the lively selling
movement with which the market closed, and
before which uriees receded 1E?4 points lower
than Monday's closing level.
In the morning spurt, fractional advances
were very general, and reached a point or
more In one or two prominent stocks. This
buying was clearly based on the supposition
that, tho elections being over, active interest
in the stock market was to be revived. There
has been a well-defined assumption among a
certain speculative class that the recent ecml
stagnatlon In the market has been due to
anxiety over the outcome of the elections. This
class was made up mostly of the large specu
lative pco'.s, which have constituted themselves
the champions of various prominent stocks, of
which they have taken on heavy lines, with
tho intention of pushing their prices to a high
er level and selling out at a profit. The his
tory of the recent stock market has been made
up of the letting go of successive parcels of
these large holdings by the people. Tho demon-
tratlve buying at the opening this morning
evidently came from these sources, and was
Intended to signalize the supposed passing of
the period of depression. The liquidation, how
ever, that met the advances was of a charac
ter to discourage all efforts to put up prices,
and it was quickly demonstrated that the -re
cent depression of the market was due to other
causes than election uncertainties.
These causes are of so general a character
and have bceen so widely discussed as not to
require enlarging. As one of the most Im
portant of these 13 the prospect of gold ex
ports, today's Immediate movement moved
against export probabilities. Call money was
slightly firmer in New York. The consequence.
was that no engagements for exports were
made for shipment by tomorrow's steamer, as
had been expected by good authority, but It Is
believed that the Autumn's demands upon
the great foreign banks for the needs of circu
lation 01! m8ne)r for purposes of trade will
result In withdrawing considerable sums from
the United States. When the rise in prices
rcachea a stage at which consumptive demand
is cnecKed, the culminating period of Indus
trial activity Is to be expected. Speculative
attention Just now is keenly alive for symp
toms of thl condition.
The pressure to sell was felt In the bond
market, but In less .degree than In active
stocks. Total sales, $1,000,000. United States
bonds were all unchanged.

WHEAT CLOSES FIRM
Fair Export Demand Helps Prices at
Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5. There was free selling of
wheat today, largely In the way of liquidation,
also for the short account. Weather condi
tions were the most important factor In the
situation, ffnd caused a firm opening. There
was considerable selling early by outsiders, but
It was not until a prominent long unloaded a
big line of May stuff that prices dropped. A
fair export demand and good cash business
later In the day caiised a rally, and the close
was firm. December opened a shade to 0c
higher, at 71071c. and after holding fairly
steady the first hour, there was a decline to
70c. but a better tone developed In the latter
part of the day, and the close was a shade bet
ter, at 71 c.
Corn ruled active and strong, due principally
to bad weather throughout the corn belt. The
close was strong, with December lc higher, at
51c
Oats ruled steady. December' closed a shade
higher, at 20c.
Provisions ruled strong throughout the day,
with a good general demand for all products.
The close was strong and higher, January rork
closing 22c higher; lard 12c up, and ribs
12015c higher.

dren, the oldest bf whom Is 14 years old,

statement alleged to have been made to
the Sheriff by Herman, his 14-year-old
sWn, who used a shotgun, which he had
purchased for the purpose. Then, with
the help of two brothers, August, aged 1,0.
and John, aged 8 years, Herman dragged
