Conditions In the Jobbing markets In the past
week have been satisfactory. An Increasing
'volume of business has been done, which ln
dicates that the critical period of the labor
trouble Is over. "Whllo the effect of the local
strike -was severely felt at Its beginning. It Is
hardly apparent novr In the aggregate -volume
&t trade. It Is evident that with the excep
tion of the men now on strike, everybody, in
the community is at work. Price changes dur
l&g the "week have been few In number and
Were confined mainly to early produce, which
shows natural declines. The wheat market Is
(quiet, with a. firm undertone, hops are slow.
and wool shows Increasing activity.
"WHEAT With the shipping season almost
closed, a lack of foreign inquiry and little or
no exportable grain remaining In first hands.
lit is only to be expected that a period of
inactivity should settle down over the local
'wheat market. The few sales that came to
light during the week were of such small pro
portions as hardly to be worth figuring upon.
i'They were mainly wagon-load lots of wheat
that farmers had left over after seeding ope
rations. No new shipping business has been
reported. There is no demand from cither
South Africa or Australia and none Is looked
, for during the remainder of the cereal year.
J The markets of Europe, however, are again
I within reach of the Northwest, and profitable
burlness can be done on the basis of quota-
tlons now ruling here. For club wheat, 72
cents Is quoted, and bluestem Is valued at
about 70 cents. The mills are paying 74273
cents for valley grades.
t Dlscueelng European market conditions and
crop prospects, J. "W. Rush, in the Northwcat
1 era Miller of May 23. said:
The weather conditions, so far as the Euro-
pean wheat crop Is concerned, have been rather
more ravorauie this week, but there can be
no doubt that the prospects as a whole are
for a much smaller yield than last year, when
it will be remembered the European wheat
crop was the largest on record, comparing as
(follows with the crops for the previous Ave
years:
Ore. I Qrs.
1002 21 2.000.00011 SCO 103.000.000
1001 l&5.000;XKO!l8t8 201.000.000
1900 1S7.000.00CUS07 152.000,000
It is, of course, much too early to hazard
anything like a definite estimate of the pres
ent year's probable production, but present
) indications may be considered to point to a
total of about IES.000,000 quarters.
The latest reports from each country may
be summarized as follows: United Kingdom,
backward but in fair condition: France, poor
outlook An unusually large area resown
with Spring wheat which can hardly fall to
give a .very small yield. The Petit Journal
of Paris already expresses the opinion that
the crop can not reach 38.000,000 quarters,
against 42.000.000 quarters last year and a
normal home request of 43,500.000 quarters.
In Germany the outlook Is much less favor
able than expected. The official report up to
April 15 gives the condition as 3.2. against
2.2 last year, and f..G in 1901. The symbol 2
represents a good condition, gradually growing
i worse up to 3, which Indicates a. poor crop,
and 4 meaning a bad one. In addition It Is
i. stated that 13.0 per cent of the crop has been
; plowed up. this representing about 875.000
! acres, while last year practically nothing was
replowed. Last year's total crop was 17.800.
i) 000 quarters and that of 1001 only 11.460,000
i quarters. This year's indicated yield is 15.
000,000 quarters and the home requirements
of Germany are about 23.000.000 quarters.
Ia Italy the crops have suffered somewhat
I from the, recent severe weather, but as a
whole are reported as promising fairly well.
I Spain and Portugal report rather serious In
Jury to the. crops by the severe drouth. In
Austro-Hungary the outlook was fair, accord
ing to the latest official accounts, but by no
means so favorable as last year.
Roumanla has had very beneficial rains, but
damage is reported here and there. A cer
tain amount of wheat will bo replowed to bs
resown with Spring corn.
Russia The latest official report. lted about
the middle of April, Is as follows: "The
I central governments unfavorable and very lr-
! regular. The southern governments, with
few exceptions, fair to good: the western gov-
1 ernxaents. Important wheat and rye producers,
i. are, generally unfavorable.
.' Apart from this comparative unfavorable
, outlook for the growing crops, the Continental
countries, France, Germany and Italy espeel
Ally, are displaying an immediate need of
wheat, which is very striking when we re
member that last year's production "was com-
v paratlvely large. During the last six weeks
I the average shipments to Europe have been
1 1. 085. 000 quarters per week, of which only
s 48,000 quarters have been direct to the United
L Kingdom. 630.000 quarters being for Contl-
! nental countries and 110,000 quarters a week
I tor "orders." This latter item may prob.
f ably be equally divided between the United
Kingdom and the Continent, so that our total
for the United Kingdom does not exoeed 400,-
I 000 quarters a week, while our requirements
of foreign wheat are about 000.000 quartets
per week. This, with the small stocks on
band, constitutes the strength of the position
and may, with any development of crop dam
age in France or Germany, lead to a decided
upward movement.
FLOUR. FEED. ETC. The flour market
during the week has been steady and un
changed la prlco with a fair selling move
raent produced by a good local demand. The
foreign situation remains without alteration.
From China no new Inquiry has developed.
but there Is coma demand from the Japanese
markets. In other quarters conditions ara
unchanged. A 17.000-harrel parcel goes out
for the United Kingdom this -week, and while
no new business Is in sight, the outlook is a
) little brighter than It has been In the past.

bran and shorts being in strong request at
S23 and middlings at $26. Hay is firm at the
old prices -und oats are steady. The "barley
market is dull.
HOPS Quietness has ruled In the hop mar
ket during the week. A number of growers
were on hand offering at 20SJ21 cents, but
dealers as a rule were not Inclined to pay
over 18 cents. There is much discussion as
to crop conditions, and many of the reports
ire contradictory. The Stephenson Company,
of this city, write to The Oregonlan- as fol
lows: "We have noticed in your columns the bad
reports coming In from the different parts of
the state regarding the lftOfr hop crop, and
will ear that after examining our Individual
yard, we find it will not produce more than
one-half of the poorest crop ever producea.
We -are constantly in touch with hopgrowers
in nearly every part of the state and nave
en but one grower who claims to have a
first-class proypect for a crop. Tho growers
who "hold their hops will be surprised -with the
results when they take into consideration the
amount of hops nor on hand, also the pros
pect for but 60 per cent of last year's crop
for Oregon, frost In New York and not very
encouraging outlooks in other parts of tha
world."
"WOOL This market is showing Increased ac
tivity, but most of the sales to data havo
been mado to interior merchants and mills
and have been of small lots. The first pool
sales will be made next week. Already Im
mense quantities of wool are arriving at Pen
dleton for the' first ol theso tales, which are '
set for May 2S and 20. This wool will be
stored until the sales day and then disposed j
'of la the pool. There aro two immense ware
houses in Pendleton In which this wool will I
bs stored. The Furnish warehouse and the J
Independent warehouse are utt-d for this pur- ;
pose. The Independent is leased by the Scour-
ing. mills, but there is plenty of room for all
the wool that will be brought in this year. I
The wool this year Is of finer quality than
last, although somewhat lighter. Insuring the !
sheepmen of at least 1 cent or 1 cents more
per pound than they received for the clip last
year. J. E. Smith, who formerly had his
cheep on the Barnhart ranch, sheared this
Spring the same number that he did last year,
and the clip was 20 sacks more. This Is very
encouraging to sheepmen, who have feared
that the clip was going to b lighter.
J. H. Gwlnn, secretary of the Woolgrowers'
Association, says that the prospects this year
are very bright for a flne clip and a good price.
In his- opinion the pools this year will bring
more money than last. A few individual clips
have already been sold, the largest one being
that of "William Slusher. The others are prin
cipally small holdings. The majority of the
woolgrowers are walling for the sales days
when clips will be pooled.
COUNTRY PRODUCE Firm prices prevail
in all lines of farm produce. Eggs were quite
weak at the beginning of business Monday,
but an Improved city demand following the
Influx of visitors has reduced the accumula
tion. Lighter receipts also strengthened tha
market, closing prices yesterday being nearly
1 cent better than tho day before.
Butter Is also firmer, with receipts on the
whole hardly up to requirements. Some Front
street houses are better- supplied than others
and a quantity of creamery butter was put
Into cold storage early In the week, but since
then the demand has Increased and there has
been more or less Inquiry from California and
Puget Sound. A quantity of store butter wa&
shipped to San Francisco in the first part o"
the week.
Not enough poultry la coming in to supply
the . local demand. . Receipts yesterday were
the best of the week, but twice aa many coops
could have been sold.
FRUITS AND VEGETABLES In the fruit
market, strawberries are taking precedence
over other varieties. California, berries are
arriving at the rate of two cars a day, and
offerings arc well taken up. the prlco ranging
from BOcfffl.25 pr crate, according to qual
ity. Oregon berries aro etlll In light supply,
but heavy arrivals aro promised next week.
The quotation on the home stock ranges from
15 cents on Southern Oregon .berries to. " 80
cents of the Hood River product. Other fruit
are la sufficient supply, except cherries. Three
cars of oranges were received yesterday.
The market is liberally supplied with green
vegetables, both Oregon and California. Quo
tations are generally steady. There Is only
a small demand for potatoes, and none at
all for onions.
GROCERIES, MEATS. ETC. No change of
Importance was made in the grocery list dur
ing the week, except the advance of 1 cent per
gallon in syrup, Manila rope went up H cent.
Meats, live and dressed, were fairly active.
Both "sheep and hogs are lower under an In
creasing supply.
Hams and lard have declined- J4 cent.

Wheat Pit.
CHICAGO. May 20. Opening prices In the
wheat pit were steady on firm cables and small
receipts, July being unchanged to c lower at
4Ci4y,c Commission houses had plenty' of
buying orders early In tha day, and with of
ferings limited tho market became" stronger
and Jul)' advanced to 74c. but the better
prices brought out heavy liquidation by local
longs and prices again declined. July reced
ing to 74c. A good cash demand later in the
day brought about a rally and continued re
ports of damago to the crop in the Soutti
west also helped in the upturn. The cloe
was firm with July KQtfc higher at 74X0
74Hc
Trading in corn was dull, due more to a
lack of offerings than any other Influence,
while the undertone was firm, due . to a large
extent to( the strength In oats and to the
small receipts.
Oats ruled steady throughout the entire ses
sion and trading was active and of large pro
portions. July closed with a gain of c at
34e.
In spite of the lower prices for hogs at the
yards and the Increased receipts, provisions
opened steady and with a fair scattered de
mand, pricc3 showed a little change thrcugn
out tho day. There was considerable sell
ing by brokers supposed to be for local pack
ers, but the orferlnrs were well taken, the de
mand for lard and ribs being quite notice
able. The close was steady, with September
pork 5c higher, lard a shade lower and ribs
up a shade. ,

LIQUIDATION WAS HEAVY
FDRIOUS SELL 1XO OX TUB XBW
YORK STOCK MARKET.
"Wide Inroads Made Upon ValHea
Bear Drive Upon. Atchison Isbbcs
The Heaviest Leasei.
NEW YORK, Ma,y 20, Liquidation became
urgent and precipitate In the stock market
today, and gathered force progressively up to
the very close, which was furiously active and
weak at about the lowest. No such scale of
activity has been witnessed In thelstock mar
ket elnco the trading following the Northern
Securities decision. Wide Inroads were made
upon values. It was not clear. In tact, what
was the cause of the market's weakness. The
ery meager demand developed yesterday when
prices were decisively turned upward caused
a very bad impression upon speculative senti
ment. Tho decline has been so long sus
tained without notable pause at any time
that conviction has gained force with the
professional element that a very large short
Interest has accumulated in Oe market. It
was believed also that prices bad -got down
to a level that would provo attractive to a
large waiting investment demand when once
some assurance could be had that the decline
had run its course. Yesterday's market was
accepted as proof that the point had not
been reached when these sustaining forces
could be relied upon. Very despondent views
were taken of the future of the market this
morning In consequence of this.
The announcement of an engagement of
$1,200,000 of gold for export and the news
that E. IL Harrlman had undergone a sur
gical operation met the market at the opening
and initiated the declining tendency. The
enormous liquidation which soon developed In
AtchUon was a marked Influence upon senti
ment and continued to dominate the market for
the rest of tha day, the Influence spreading to
an increasing degree up to the close. Rumors
were circulated of a coming bond Issue by
the Atchlsai, but no official confirmation could
be had on this subject. The opinion gained
ground that a large speculative interest In tho
stock was in a vulnerable position and was
bslng made & target for attack. It will be
remembered that at various times the secur
Ing of a control of the Atchison by the Rock
Island was discussed as an alternative propo
sition to the taking over of the St. Louis
San Francisco.
It U probable that this talk caused & con
slderable speculative accumulation in Atch
ison. There is a suspicion that there was an
actual large accumulation looking toward con
trol and that some of this stock may b com
ing upon the market. The extreme decline in
the stock reached 3Vi. which was equalled by
St. Paul. Losses of 2 and 3 points were fairly
general among active stocks and considerably
exceeded that la ases where dormant stocks
were forced to sale. A notable example of
this was a 2S-point drop In Michigan Central.
This stock was subsequently bid up again 10
points before an offering was encountered and
sale made.
Bear tactics were perceptible In the precipi
tate decline at the last, notably In the circu
lation of rumors that $5,000,000 to $7,000,000
gold would go out Saturday to Europe. The
only basis for this rumor was found to be the
making of tentative arrangements for the
shipment of $750,000 to South America next
week. The situation In the exchange market.
however, was a strong factor In the weak.
ness of stocks. Exchange holds firm in face
of tho shipments, and there is knowledge
of the early maturity of some large German
loans in this market, "which give ground for
the expectation that considerable gold exports
to Berlin may have to be made. A speculative
upset in Boston precipitated soma selling In
this market today and shorts In the cotton
market were said to be selling stocks to cover
losses in cotton. Some stress was laid on the
buying of stocks for London account, as indi
cating the growth of an investment demand
from that source, but arbitrage broker ex
plain, that much of this buying Is due to a
transfer of holdings from London to New
York to secure the benefit of the present cheap
money market here.

WHEAT AND BARLEY EASY.
Fltur Prlee?i Expected to Improve at
San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. May 20. (Special.)
Wheat was easier on realising sales, but
weather conditions favor better prices. Bar
ley was lower under further arrivals from the
North for delivery on May contracts. Oats
were fairly steady. The sharp cut In Oriental
steamship freights Is exacted to help flour.
Bran was In quick demand and 51 higher.
Hay was easy.
The butcheri' annual picnic drew away many
market people and caused dullness In fruits
and vegetables. Strawberries, gooseberries and
cherries were In heavy supply and lower.
Arizona apricots arrived in better condition
and eold higher. No near-by California apri
cots yet received. Apples were dull ;and nom
inal. Nine- carloads of oranges In good con
dition were auctioned, prices having a wiae
range, due to difference la sizes. Fancy lem
ons held higher. Limes were steady. Ar
rivals of bananas were larger, but mostly
too green for local use. The failure of the Por
ter Brothers Company is causing an unsettled
feeling In the dried fruit trade. r-
Potatoes are very weak for general offerings.
Those by tha Columbia aro not yet discharged,
as she went to another dock to unload grain.
Onions are still depressed. Moat kinds of
green vegetables are easier.
Domestic poultry Is in larger supply, but
steady for good stock. The butter market Is
easier. Cheese is weak. Eggs are steady.
Receipts, 05,000 pounds butter. 05,000 pounds
cheese, 5S.000 dozen eggs.
Wool Is firmer and unchanged. Sonoma, Men
docino and Humboldt wools aro yet to bo
marketed, which will clean up the California
goring clip.
