THE MORNING OREGONIAN. FIUDAT., AUGUST .7, 1903. 13 RALLY IN PRICES Wall Street Emerging From the Gloom. SOME WZAKKESS AT OPENING Dar Cloned WltU an Animated Bor ing, AVItu StrenRtU and Baoyancr In Evi dence. XEW YORK. Aug. 6.-WaIl street emerged today from Its doom, which still clouded the h. rlv hours of the traa- lng In stocks, and an effective rally In Price8 was produced. The day closed with an ani mated buying movement In progress and with prices on the active list from I to oyer 3 polnU above last night. During the period of early weakness there were numerous declines o. from 1 to 2 points, "breaking through Jvloo. low levels of the year. The early yf" was not universal, many stocks showing goou resistance and reflecting determined support toy means of confident buying on the part o. the market managers for the stocks. There was 'acute weakness after the opening, which cen tered upon Missouri pacific, Atchison and Baltimore & Ohio. This seemed to be a con tinuation of yesterday's liquidation, ana the closing out of collateral In loans. The weak spots in the market, of which the above stocks were the most notable, kept the tone unsettled and nervous. The eagerness shown for the announcement which was made In a conspicuous manner, that all sheets had satisfactorily passed the Stock Exchange Clearing-House, and the evident relief after the announcement was made, showed clearly that fears had been felt that further failures would result. After the clearing-house sheets had gone through there was a relaxation In the selling pressure, and Indications that liqui dation of an Immediate emergency character had spent Its force. The stability of parts of the market which were supported by large banking Interests arrested the rapid shrinkage In collateral, which aroused such acute un easiness yesterday. The market gradually strengthened during the latter part of the day and became quite buoyant at the last. Covering of short contracts by the profes sional traders played an important part in the recovery- A favorite rumor was that a coalition had been formed among the most powerful capitalists in the country to buy all stocks that were offered and to lend freely to the distressed Interests In the market. This rumor presented so pleasing a prospect that everybody who gave credence to It was dlsootsed to buy ttocks to the extent or his aim Ity The professional traders short of the market were of course foremost In this eager ness. As a matter of fact, there is reason to believe that an exchange of views on the sit uation among Important capitalists has dis closed an agreement of opinion as to the ad vlsabiiity of avoiding the further selling out of collateral as far as possible. Hut the lend era In the stock market show considerable vari ation In the policy pursued in this matter, as was disclosed by further closing out of col lateral this morning. There was as little In the news of the day to account for the rally as there had been for the early decline. Liquidation In grain and cotton was supposed to be Induced to some extent by the threatening situation In Wall street and the rise in the call money rat to .4 per cent this afternoon was said to be due In part"to the cancellation of some loans In cotton. The movement In call money did not affect the late strength In stocks. The trade reports on Iron and steel gave prominence to the dlf flcultj' of financing new undertakings on ac count of the money and securities market sit uatlon and cited cases of postponement of deliveries and even cancellation of orders. Passenger rate disturbances in the West -and Northwest are said to be threatening. But the great relief felt that no further casualties oc curred in the Stock Exchange circle carried all other considerations before It, and re sulted In the violent rebound In prices. Spec ulative bonds made violent recoveries In sympathy with stocks. The general bond mar ket was irregular. Total sales, par value. '557.100.000. United States bonds were all unchanged on last call. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain, Klonr, Feed, Etc, The local wheat market Is In a very un settled and unsatisfactory condition. The de mand for Hour from the Orient Is so heavy that the mills are obliged to do more than the usual amount of rustling In order to secure stocks for grinding. Under such circum stances about all that the exporters can o Is to lay back and wait for the Orientals to get filled up on flour. The Eastern market was fctrong again yesterday, but the response from Europe was rather disappointing and most of the exporters stated that 75 to 76 cents was about all that could be got out of Vheat for export For milling purposes as lilgh as 78 cents was reported paid. No sales of barley were reportetd, and the mysterious buyer of the big lot reported sold at Dayton has not disclosed his Identity.

Special.l "I never before have seen bop lice as numerous as they are at the present time." said M. L. Jones, of Brooks, today. "Unless weather conditions should be very favorable, the chances of ser ious damage to the hop crop are very great," Mr, Jones was formerly president of the Ore gon Hopgrowers' Association and has been a grower of hoDs in Oregon for man years. Speaking further upon this subject, he said: "The presence of hop lice in large numbers does not necessarily mean that damage will result, for we sometimes have lice In abund ance without any damage whatever. But the more numerous the lice, the greater the danger. If we should have rainy, murky weather in Dlcklnr time the hops would almost certainly be moldy. Exceedingly hot, dry weather either kills the vermin or destroys their power to do the hops scrlou3 damage, and Just such weather Is what we want from now on in order to harvest a good crop." Mr. Jones has not yet sprayed his hops, but says he will do so at once. He thinks It Is not too late as long as the lice have not yet entered the hop burrs, but he thinks that spraying too late might to some -extent in jure the quality of the hops. While he Is no an alarmist, he thinks the situation Is serious and that unfavorable weather conditions will very likely result In damage. Xevr "Wheat at Albany. ALBANY, Or.. Aug. 0. (Special.)

Sldcnlt)- In Financing Nerr Indus trial Operations Responsible for an Easier Feeling. NEW YORK. Aug. 6. There is some uncer tainty In nearly all the branches of the Iron trade. Induced by the feelings that the con sumption may decline the balance of the year, while production shows some signs of adequate restriction, saya the Iron Age, What has added to the uneasiness is the tact that oc casionally demands are made by consumers for postponement of deliveries, and In some cases for cancellation. The condition of the money and zecuritles markers has put a sertocs damper on new undertakings, which It is very difficult to finance. In the plg-lron markets the principal event of the week has been the heavy buying of Western malleable Iron interests, which con sume about 150,000 tons of pig Iron annually. For the second half the purchases Include about 50.000 tons in the Chicago market at the price of about 517-56 for malleable bss zemer, and considerable additional quantities In the Cleveland market for Toledo and Indian apolis delivery. Other malleable interests have also been buyers. In ordinary foundry Iron the principal trans action reported has been the purchase by a leading harvester interest of about 20,000 tons of Northern Iron in the Chicago district at 517 for No. 2. No large sales of Southern iron have taken place, and the situation Is un changed. In bessemer pig It is noted that two furnaces of the United States Steel Corporation at Youngstown and one at Newcastle, are about to blow out, so that the requirements may be come more urgent. A meeting of the plg-lron committee Is to be held next week. Basis pig In the East has sold at 516 delivered. The lowering in the price of pig Iron is caus ing a decline In cast iron pipe. It is pretty well understood taat the leading steelmakers have determined to put a stop to importations steel bllltts, and will meet such foreign prices as are made near the tidewater or at interior points. Generally speaking, the mar ls quiet. In the heavy lines a fair ton nage is being placed, but to far as plates and shapes for car building are concerned, the future Is uncertain because the steel car- builders have not had any Important orders for a considerable time Nor do the shlD- ards promise to be as heavy customers as they havv been. Slight concessions are being made in sheets and In terne plates, while the steel bar mills have decided to guarantee prices against a decline. Dullness reigns in all branches of the metal trade, and the general tendency is downward. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Atchison 60.8001 69Ki &5t4 5SH. SO Hi sovi Atchison pfd Baltimore & Ohio ....

Wheat ruled rather quiet throughout the day. Opening prices were weak on lower cables and more favorable weather In the Northwest, September being a shade to sHc lower at' 79379-Xc The market con tinued weak'the first half of the session on' an entire absence of news, which could bo construed as favorable Jo the bulls, but toward me noon nour tnere was fair buying by spec ulators and the price again recovered. One of the "main causes for the advance was the good export demand at the seaboard. Offerings were limited the latter- part of the day, and this fact contributed to the late strength. Under these Influences September sold up to S0c and closed, at SO&trSOHs, a net gain of Trading In corn was comparatively slow. owing to a lack of selling pressure and to a scarcity of outside buying orders. The lato strength In wheat helped corn prices and the close was steady with September unchanged at 52c Oats sympathized somewhat with the early weakness in wheat, but offerings were rather light and price's recovered without much ef fort. The close was firm with September lc higher at 34Vic Provisions ruled weak with selling by brok ers, supposed to be acting for local Dockers. The hog situation was easier and contributed to the depression . September pork closed 1714c lower, lard was off 2Uc, while ribs were down 10S12HC The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open.
