SPRING SEED TRADE
Volume of Business Larger
Than Ever Before.
PRICES HIGHER, MARGIN SMALL
Stronger Demand for "Vetches
Grovrtli of t.he Business In Pcni
try Supplies Local Prod
uce Quotations.
The Spring trade la seed la at Its height.
The season, which opened February 1, earlier
this eeafon tbaa usual, -will last for a month
or two yet. The volume of business is larger
than usual, and would "bo still greater but tor
the difficulty of getting supplies from the East.
In spite of the lack of railroad facilities, it is
probable that receipts in this line will reach
100 carloads for the present season.
Prices on leading articles average higher this
year than ever before, but this tendency so
far has been of more benefit to the producer
than to the middleman, the margin ..being
closer than ever before. The bulk of the busi
ness now under way Is in grass and farm
seeds. A large item In tho movement is
retches, planting of which is 100 per cent
greater this year than last. New varieties of
grains are also in great demand this Spring.
Not much is being done in rupplying seed
potatoes, except new kinds, farmers usually
procuring their seed from other farmers. The
traffic In vegetable seeds Is also above the
average. The Portland trade is supplying a
big territory this year, their orders coming
from all points of Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
British Columbia and Northern California.
The demand for poultry supplies has been
increasing steadily for several years, until the
business has reached large proportions. Grow
ers now arc using a great variety of articles
for food, shells, bone, seeds, grains and spe
cial mixtures of grains and seeds. The point
has been reached where the poultry man sees
that it pays to use a greater variety of food
than can be produced on his own land. A large
amount of meat is being used as poultry food,
and still more green meat and bone would be
consumed if It could be secured, but the sup
ply for this purpose. Is limited, as most of the
meat dealers contract to dispose of their bone
to tallow manufacturers.
Forelsm Steel Murlcet Stronger.
NEW YORK, March 16. The European posl
tlon of Iron and steel appears to be gradually
strengthening, cables the London correspondent
of tho Tribune. The German works, which
formerly have been aggressive competitors for
the export business, are filled up with orders
for near deliveries, are refusing fresh orders
where shortness of time Is the essence of the
contract, and has further advanced prices.
Since the beginning of the year there has been
a fairly satisfactory upward movement on the
Continent, which is especially marked in ma'
terials which are most sought after by Amer
ican buyers.
Dnlry Salt Firm.
It Is rumored on the street that there is
likely to be an advance In tho price of dairy
ealt In the near -future. No changes in the
staple grocery list were announced yesterday.

LIQUIDATION OF STOCKS
CAUSES A SLUMP IX THE SEW TORK
MARKET.
DOTTHvrard CoHrse Stopped "br

OaUook for Money.
NEW TORK. March 16. The feeling of en
couragement professed on Saturday over the
money situation, as indicated by the bank
statement, was dissipated today. When call
money rose to 7 per cent, the discouraged hulls
began to throw over stocks, and there was
evidence of considerable liquidation by tired
holders. Prices went down very easily, and
there was no appearance of effective support
until there came a sudden upward substantial
spurt In Southern Pacific during the last half
hour. The parking up of this stock to 63 was
so characteristic of the drastic speculative
method of the manager of the pool In the
Southern Pacific that the shorts took fright
and covered hastily In various parts of the
market. Union Pacific shared la the lata rally,
as Southern Pacific had done in the early
weakness.
There was a manifest embarrassment la the
supposed efforts which were making all day
to depress Union Pacific and support South
ern Pacific Speculators assumed that this
was the purpose of the present pool in con
nection with its suit to prevent the diversion
of Southern Pacific earnings away from divi
dends. The possible Incidental consequences
of this suit are an unsettling influence on
speculation. On account of the important
questions that may arise regarding the control
of competing lines by ownership of stock held
In the treasury of a railroad corporation. The
progress of the voting on the strike question
on the part of the employes of the New Haven
system served to keep alive the labor Question
la the mind of the speculative people- The
progress of the Spring season gives cor-stantly
new occasion for the consideration of the sub
ject of new demands for higher wages and
disputes growing out of them. This Is a wide
reaching Influence for depression In the pres
ent temper of speculation. The appropriation
of New York to Improve Its own street-lighting
system caused further sharp losses in the
local gas stocks. Tho selling pressure seemed
particularly severo against New Tork Central,
for what reason was not disclosed.
It was hooed that the success of the banks
last week In keeping within their legal re
serve requirements would lead to quieter money
conditions this week. The absence of violent
disturbance In stocks last week, in spite of
the 15.000.000 loan contraction effected,
seemed to be regarded as encouraging. There
was a momentary effort. In fact, to pull up
prices, and some progress was made la the
case of Reading. Wabash preferred, Louisville
and a few other stocks. The disbursement of
the Standard Oil dividend today seemed to
be without -effect la relieving the money mar.
ket. London sold stocks here, and sterling
exchange advanced, both of which were factors
la the weakness of the market. The fact that
the week starts with a slight gain for the
banks on Eubtreasury operations afforded but
mild satisfaction. The rally In the market was
coincident with the arrival at his office of
leading Individual in the financial world after
a vacation absence, although the motive which
promoted the srofesslonals to pursue this
course was not dUclosed.
The bond market was weak In sympathy with
stocks. Total sales, $1,877,000. United States
new 4s, registered, advanced per cent on
the last call.

the British bark Banklelsh this morning

Socialists Gain In Germany.
NEW YORK, March 16. The general
election in Germany, which will take
place three months hence, says a Tribune
dispatch from London, will probably be
more bitter one than on any previous
occasion, as several. Important public In
tercsts will be at stake, which are in
direct antagonism to each other. The
alliance of the moderate parties on the
question of a customs tariff, by means
of which it was possible to defeat Social
ist obstruction, proves to have been mere
ly a temporary one. At the last election
one-third of tho votes of all the electors
were given to the Socialist candidates.
and the discontent which prevails all over
Germany Is constantly bringing new re
cruits to the Socialist ranks.

SLUMP IX CORX MARKET.
Heavy Liquidation Causes Two-Cent
Break Wh eat AIko Lower,
CHICAGO. March 16. Trading in wheat was
only moderate, and the market held fairly
steady the greater part of the day, but the
extreme weakness In corn caused a decline late
In the session, and the close was near the hot
torn. May opened a shade to tc higher at
74H74Hc on comparatively steady cables, the
.market falling to respond to the decline here
Saturday, and on small world's shipments, the
decrease being largely from Russia and Ar
gentina, There was general selling by com
mission houses, but the offerings were well
taken by pit traders and local longs, and the
pried remained steady until the session was
well advanced, when a reversion of sentiment
developed on the break in corn, and a decline
to 73?jc followed. The close was He lower at
7373T4e.
Enormous liquidation of May corn resulted
in a break of 2c In that commodity, and. with
poor support, tho market closed near the bot
torn. The selling was a continuance of the
liquidation begun last week, and was
scale sufficient to satisfy the most Incredulous.
The bull campaign Inaugurated several weeks
ago has been abandoned. The selling was In
big blocks, and It was at first mainly Inclined
to one or two large operators, but as the ses
slon advanced and no let-up occurred, the
smaller holders took alarm and Joined In the
selling movement, so that for a time It seemed
as If the whole pit had corn for sale. The
opening was easier on low cables. May being a
shade lower at 4G&46c, and steadily de
clined. At 44Uo there was some covering by
shorts. The market closed lfic lower at 45$c.
Statistics, on the whole, were bullish, but had
little effect on the situation. -There
was early selling of oats on the In
creased receipts, but the offerings were well
taken and the market held quite steady until
late In the session, when prices declined with
com. Tho close was weak and HSHc lower
for May at 34Hc
There was considerable liquidation In pro
visions, induced chiefly by the weakness In
com. although liberal receipts of hogs and
decline of from 5c to 10c in prices at the
yards were early bear factors. There was no
effort to support the market, and the whole
list slumped oil. the close being weak and
25c off on May pork; lard was down ITHc, and
riDs were lower.
