Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1903., 13 FIRST OF THE GR Car of New Wheat Reached Portland Yesterday, GRADED NO. 2 BLUESTEM Came From Earclca Flat District, and Quality "Was Poor Mar ket In Bnnatiufnctorx Condition The Pacific Coast Elevator Company Je terday received tho first car of new wheat that has reached Portland this season. It was not a very choice article of bluestem, having- come from tho Eureka flat ectlon where the rnoet of the damage reports emanated. It weighed slightly under 7 pounds, and bad it not been the first car of the season, would not have attracted much attention. The crop 1 generally regarded as being two or three weeks later than last year, but as the 'first car last season was received July 28,- It Is apparent that there Is Jess than a week differ ence, although there, may have been condi tions which would not make this an accurate reflex of the general state of advancement of the crop. With the crop only a week late present In dications point to a very slow movement. The strength of the market in the East and In Ean Francisco, has Inflated the Tlcws of sell ers to such an extent that It la practically Impossible to buy wheat on an export basis. Vnder such conditions, accurate qu&totlons are Impossible and those given In the market columns are to a considerable extent nom inal. With no early tonnage to be taken care of, exporters will not force prices above an export value, the call board offering much superior inducements for a speculation. The barley market is In much the same con dition as the wheat market, and some very extravagant prices are reported paid at Inte rior points. The reported sale of 200,000 sacks at Dayton Is denied by the buyer credited with securing the cereal, ''but well authenticated reports from Dayton seem to confirm the early reports with the exception that there seems to be some doubt as to the Identity of the buyer. WEEKLY CHOP REPORT. Grain Harvest In Under Way In All Farts, or tlie. State. The crop bulletin of the Agricultural De partment for the week ending Mcnday Is as follows: The past week has been dry and cool. In the western section nearly every morning was cloudy, and in the Coast counties tho cloud iness was almost continuous, which seriously interfered with haying. The hay crop Is now nearly all secured, and the yields are esti mated to be slightly below the average. In Southern Oregon and in the Grande Rendu Valiey some of the deficiency has been made up by cutting grain for hay. The second crop of alfalfa Is now being harvested In a few .ocalltles. Correspondents in Polk and Jackson Counties report grasshoppers unusu al 1y numerous In tho clover fields. The groin harvest Is now well under way in all sections of the state, and the yields are reported gooi as to quality, out below the average In quantity. " Hops are very backward, and the great nr.-ount of cloudiness during the week has been an unfavorable factor in the advance ment of the crop. Potatoes and gardens con tinue thrifty and promising. Corn needs more warmth and sunshine. The blight previously repc. ted as affecting field onions continues to srread slowly. Prunes aro beginning to color and early apples are ripe. A few correspondents report Italian prunes as dropping badly, and that the yleldB will be less than anticipated. Pears are doing splendidly, and a heavy crop Is ex pected. Apples continue doing wall.

THE LOWEST ON RECORD UXITED STATES STEEL AGAIX UN DER PRESSURE. Acate Weakness A gala Developed In the Stock Mar . ket. NEW YORK. Aug. 4. Tho stock market developed acute weakness again today, and after continued liquidation throughout the ses sion, closed weak at about the lowest for the day. This represented also the lowest of the year for a number of prominent stocks and near the lowest for a much larger number. Union Pacific, Atchison. Erie, Texas Pacific. Wabash preferred. Rock Island preferred. Cosoll dated Gas, Republic Steel preferred and the Virginia-Carolina Chemical stocks were amongst those which sold today lower than be fore this vear. U. S. Steel sold at 21, which is the lowest price oa record. There was an insignificant rally in the final hour of the market, but the selling was renewed at the last. It was evident that the process of sell ing oat collateral in loans was resumed on a considerable scale. The source or the selling took on the mys terious character of the recent period of liq uidation, which it was hoped had been com pleted for the present. A number of stocks broke sharply this morning on account of spe cial news developments and the renewal of the general declining tendency seemed to prompt the liquidation as much as any other factor. The response of Consolidated Gas to the an nouncement of an additional stock issue of nearly $7,000,000, with subscription privileges to stockholders, resembled that of Pennsylvania stock to the recent stock Increase and that of New York Central to the persistent rumors of capital increase. Consolidated Gas sold off over 8 points. The United States Steel stocks formed another center of disturbance. The liquidation -in these was associated at first with the authoritative announcement of the resignation of President Schwab. Tne persist ence of the weakness give rise to rumors of unfavorable developments in the trade, espe cially growing out of the building trades lock outs, notably In Pittsburg. Fears were also expressed that the executive change in the corporation would give rise to change of policy, possibly Involving a suspension of dlrldends on the common stock. The decline of several points la Virginia Carolina Chemical and (k 19 points in the preferred was the occasion ot some uneasiness. Another supposed factor was derived from the published reports of the serious breakdown in the health of an operator who has taken a very prominent part in some of tho market affairs of the past few years. It was not sup posed, however, that the weakness of the market nm due entirely to any special causes, the general banking situation Deing consid ered sufficient to explain the liquidation. The Wall street community has not relinquished Its study of the loan position of the banks, which was emphasized by tho unexpected Increase la loans shown by last Saturdays bank state ment. The fact that large increases in general commercial and Industrial lines are re ported by mercantile agencies gave point to the depressing influence of the compilation. The attention given to rumors, which were authoritatively denied, ot the placing of a large real estate mortgago loan by the New York Central Indicated the dread in the specu lative world that the demand by great corpo rations for credits will continue to encroach upon the available supplies. The Weather Bu reau's weealy crop bulletin was regarded as favorable, but its influence was offset by the renewed firmness in the cotton and grain mar kets. Bonds were heavy In sympathy with stocks. Total sales, par value, $2,725,000. United States bonds were all unchanged on the last call. Atehlfon do preferred Baltimore & Ohio do preferred Canadian Pacific Central of New Jersey.

California Denier Securing; ConsJgn xnents tor the London Market SALEM, Aug. 4. Special.) M. H. Durst, of California, Is la Salem working In con Junction with the officers of the Oregon Hop- growers' Association In the formation or a pool ot hops to be consigned to London. Mr. Durst Is to pay 15c to 16c advance on the hops and when they are sold in London he Is to deduct from the selling price 4c to 5c a pound to cover commission and expenses, and pay the balance to the growers. Mr. Durst is to have no recourse upon the growers If the hops sell for less than the amount advanced plus the commission and expenses. It is yet uncertain how large a quantity of hops wul be secured for shipment on this consignment. The pool will be closed about the end ot this week. It is reported that 17c was offered here for hops today. Hops In Good Condition. GERVAIS. Or.. Aug. 4. (Special.) Hops make a splendid showing all through this seo tlon, much betttr than was thought possible earlier in the season. It now looks as though an average crop will be grown hereabouts. Dealers have picked up about all the 1902 crop of hops remaining In growers' hands in this section and we only know of one lot unsold. It is qultr possible that the crop In Oregon, when nicking tune arrives will be entirely wiped out and a clean balance sheet left for the 1903 crop. A slightly better price is offer ing now than prevailed a week or ten days ago. Boston Wool Market. BOSTON, Aug. 4. The wool market con tinues steady with a fair to good demand.
