WHEAT SALES SLOW
Millers Are Not Getting All
They Need.
BUT ARE KOLDIKG PRICES UP
Ko Grain Tet Bought for Export
Weatber la Unfavorable for
Frnnea Local Produce
Quotations.
The wheat movement In the Interior Is not
very active yet, but as soon as fanners and
ihlppers come to an understanding as to prices,
there -will be plenty of grain to change hands.
A few lots are being said up the country at
the prices now prevailing, miners talcing tbo
wheat. These buyers are having difficulty In
Ailing their requirements. even at the high
figures offered, as the majority of farmers
in the Inland Empire believe wheat is worth
fully 75 cents there and are holding for that
price. Until the milling demand Is satisfied
and millers cease buying, quotations are bound
to continue high. The Impression prevails
pr.H pw.u.
unusual quantity of
among farmers that an
wheat will be home ground this season and
some of the millers have stated that they will
Increase their output, but It Is believed by
grain exporters that the amount of flour to
be shipped this season will not exceed the
average .output. Thero Is a good Oriental
demand for flour at the moment with but
little offering:, and consequently no new busi
ness of importance being worked, shipments
now under way being on old orders. The early
activity in this line was no doubt due to the
Impression that a war between Japan and I
Russia was Impending, and thero Is reason
to believe that the Japanese government made J
some Heavy purcnases oi nour in me eariy
part of the Summer, but since the war scare
has blown over, the trade prospects have con-
ceauently diminished.
There considerations lead grain shippers to
believe there will be plenty of wheat offered
for export before the season has far advanced
and that at figures at which foreign business
can be profitably worked. At the present time
wheat is quoted In this market at least 5
cents above the export value. Local quotations
yesterday were steady. Chicago snowed a de
cline of and features at Liverpool were i
lower. San Francisco was also weaker.
SOT GOOD FOR PRUNES.
Warm Weather Canned the Fruit to
Drop,
DALLAS. Or.. Aug. 20. (Special.) The hot
weather for the past few days has been hailed
with satisfaction by the hopgrowers. for 1
has checked the spread of vermin and bright
ened the prospects for a clean crop; but among
the prune men there is no such spirit of re
joicing. Prominent orchardUts In this vicin
ity, who have made a careful study of ex
isting conditions, say that the heat has al'
ready done great damage to the growing fruit
on the low lands. A great amount of fruit
Is droppinc from the trees, and that which re
mains Is making slow growth. It Is the gen
eral opinion that the prunes will bo mueh
smaller than usual, even though cool or rainy
weather should follow later In the season. In
dividual estimates differ, and many grow
ers report no damage whatever, but It is the
general opinion that the crop la Polk County
this year will fall considerably below an ave-
lage yllfi.
JAPAN VS. CEYLON TEA.
Indian Product Getting a Hold on
American Trade.
The Kobe Herald of Juno 10 ays that since
tbo opening of the tea season this year the
market for common grades of tea has been
very quiet and buyers have been very few.
This state of affairs Is due to the fact thai
a considerable quantity of green tea In lmita
tlon of Japan tea has been chipped from Cey
lon to the United States and Canada, and it Is
being sold at lower rates than the genuine
Japan tea, with a view to ousting the latter
from the market. The proJuotlon of green
tea in India last year was only 0,009,000
pounds; this year it U estimated at between
12.000,000 and 15,000,000 pounds, while it is
Intended to Increase that quantity to 40,000,800
pounds. If possible It is impossible for Japan
tea to compete with Indian green ta. in point
of price, so that it Is expected, says the HeraM,
that the commoner brands of Japan tea may be
entirely deleted from the United States and
Canadian markets In the oourse ef three or
four years.
Potatoes Need Rntn.
SALEM, Or Aug. 20. Special.) J. M.
Kyle, a Salem produce buyer, who has been
through the farming district around Salem In
the last few days, cays that the otato crop
Is very much In need of rain and that un
less a heavy shower oomes txm the crop will
be short.

REACTION IS, STILL ON
LATE POWERFUL SUPPORT LACK
ING IX STOCK JLUIKET.
General Belief la That a Period of
Dullness and SIurkIsU Fluctu
ations Is at Hand.
NEW TORK. Aug. 20. There was more sell
ing of stocks this mcmlng cf the same char
acter as that of yesterday and little resist
ance was offered. Prices In consequence de
clined easily during the morning, and effect
ive inroads were made upon the sharp ad
vances from the low level cf the year which
had been achieved last week. The reaction has
run to about C points In Rock Island and
Amalgamated, which were the late leaders of
the upward movement and which have, in
turn, led the downward movement. The very
large volume of trading In Rock Island at
the top level caused a belief that a large dis
tribution of stock was effected by Insiders at
that level and has given rise to the supposi
tion in some quarters that the general market
was under manipulation to facilitate this op
eration.
There was no sign any longer of the powerful
support and resistance to decline which helped
the market upwards In the first stages of the
recovery. This was accepted cy tne purely
speculative contingent as an intimation that
the great banking institutions and Influential
capitalists do not favor a further advance in
prices nor an actlvo speculation at this tiro.
There Is an expectation In consequence that
period of dullness and sluggish fluctuation
lies before the market.
The rate at which the recovery was proceed
ing and the extent of tho speculative comrnlt-
raontc which were made seemed to arouse ap
prehensions of renewed entanglements which
the coming requirements upon the money mar.
ket might mr.ke hazardous. Special signifi
cance was attached to the decline of r Jn
Amalgamated Copper, of 2 points In St. Paul
and 4 points in Consolidated Gas, owing to
the popular conception In Wall street that the
course of these particular stocks represent the
attitude of Standard Oil capitalists In the mar
ket and on the flnanrinl situation.
The money situation is carefully watched
from day to day for the development of the
Interior demand for currency. Shipments to
the Interior have been on a larger scale this
week than last and the balance may turn
against New York at any time. Call loan
rates continue very easy, but the time money
market Is hardening appreciably. The banks
point out that It Is their purpose to conserve
their resources for regular commercial nteas
and the quoted rates represent the terms for
those purposes. Rates otherwise are a mat'
ter of private exchange. The stock market
contingent is still Inclined to disappointment
over the doubts expressed as to currency leg
islation at the coming session of Congress.
The day's movement in the grain and cot
ton markets were favorable to clocks, tne de
cline in prices there Indicating Improved
chances for the crops. The tone of senll'
ment In the iron trade was more cheerful
today, reports indicating that the downward
course of prices has cauaed some lncreaaea
demand at last.
The attendance at the Stock Exchange was
reduced by vlrits to the yacht races, and after
the race was under way the Interest on the
floor was diverted to the bulletins of the race.
"With the decrease In the activity of the mar
ket, a largo short Interest was left unco
ered, which showed gathering concern as t the I
day progressed. Prices recovered steadily on I
small dealings and closed arm at aooui ins
best of the day. Net gains of a point or
more are shown by a number of the Paclfls
and trunk lines, AtchlMm rising 2 over last

Futures Close With a Loss at Chi

CHICAGO. Aug. 20. Trading In' wheat was
of a light character and a nervous feeling
prevailed. Favorable weather In the Nortn-
iy est, together with Indifferent cables, caused
commission-house telling at the start, and
opening prices were weak. September being
down c at SO Vic Everything seemed to
favor tie bears, outside markets being lower,
while primary receipts were large and crop
advices favorable. With little demand, the
market gradually declined until September had
touched 70Hc, when buying orders became
more numerous and a rally ensued. The lat
ter part of tho session was dull and feature
less, but prices held about steady. Sep
tember closed i6:ic lower at 8OiQS0 Vic-
There was only a small trade In corn, and
prices were lower under the Influence of con
tinued favorable weather In the est. Steadi
ness prevailed the latter part of the session
and September closed lc lower at 51c
Oats were again relatively steady, although
tho weakness In wheat and corn had some ef
fect. September closed at 34Hc, a gain of
He
Provisions were firm, chiefly because of a
let up In the selling pressure which had been
In evidence recently. There was a good de-
niand for ribs early and with a small run of
hogs and a stronger 'market at tne yards, pro-

SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS
BARLEY THE LIVELIEST FEATURE
OF THE GRAIN TRADE.
Excited by Reports of Heavy Par-
chases In the Interior by Ex
porters Who Have Ships.
SAN FRANCISCO. CaL, Aug. 20. (Special.)
Barley was the liveliest feature of the local
grain market. Excited by reports of heavy
purchases In the Interior by exporters who have
chartered mors vessels, spot and speculative
prices rose sharply. Wheat opened easier, but
closed steadier with trade, quiet. Oats were
la larger receipt, but steady. Flour, mlllfeeds
and hay were firm. The fruit market was
quieter, as tho shipping demand was light and
canners were Indifferent buyers, being chiefly
supplied with contract stock. Fancy Bartlett
pears and Gravensteln apples were In light
receipt and firm, but lower grades of these
fruits were abundant and slow. Peaches were
In larger supply and easier. Grapes arrived
freely and were weaker. The first zlnfandel
wine grapes ate expected tomorrow. Plums
and figs were abundant and declining. Canta
loupes were In excessive supply and weak, to
gether with other melons. Berries were gen
erally neglected, because of poor quality. Val
encia oranges are moving slowly. Mexican
limes are easy with fresh supplies close at
hand.
Receipts of potatoes were moderate, but the
market Is still dull and easy, except for fancy
Salinas Burbanks. Sweets were fairly plen
tlfuL Onions declined sharply, the market
being overstocked. Tomatoes were In light
supply and firm. Lima and string beans were
eak. Other vegetables were fairly steady.
Poultry was In over supply and weak. Two
carloads of Eastern arc offering. .Butter and
eggs were firm and cheese easy. Receipts,

METAL TIIAIJE REVIEW.
Redaction la Price of Sonthern
Foundry Iron.
NEW TORK. Aug. 20. Undue Importance
has been attached to the announcement that
the Associated Southern Furnace Companies
have reduced th price of No. 2 foundry from
$13.50 to $12. Birmingham, says the Iron
Age. As In previous reductions In the offi
cial price, the Associated Furnacemen have
again merely recognized the settling of the
market on the part of the Independent pro
ducers. For some weeks quotations on South
ern foundry iron have been based on a $1:
rate The volume of business has Increased
heavily of late, but some of it has been placed
under the rate now named by the Associated
Furnacemen,
The Chicago market has been particularly
active. Sales, of malleable Iron at Chicago
thus far during- the month are placed at 10u,-
wo tons, and oasic iron is in better demanu.
with negotiations pending- on 15,000 to 20.000
tons. Cincinnati and St. Louis report in
creased business. Eastern markets are like
wise active, but Pittsburg reports quiet con
ditions In pig iron.
Officials of the United States Steel Corpora
tlon take a hopeful view of the situation.
They stats that the subsidiary companies have
as larce a tonnace on their books as at tha
corresponding time last year. The tube and
wire nail business Is especially good. Tho
closing of some departments of the Homestead
worjis oi me viraegie sieei company is cue
to the oresslmr necessity for reDalrs. as these
departments have been operated to their ut
most for more than two years.
Sheet trade has for some time been less act
ive, but It Is stated that no more sheet mills
are now Idle than usual at this season In or
dinary years. Tbo structural trade is lighter
than during the Spring months, mainly on
account of strikes in the building- trades.
The corporation Is not negotiating for Bes
semer pig iron, and no purcnases wm ce
made for some time.
Car shortage Is beginning to be felt In var
ious sections, particularly In the West and
South, and fears are expressed that last Fall's
experience may be repeated to some extent.
COTTON' BULLS MATCH BIG SUM.
Xevr Orleans Men Clear Up About
$10,500,000 In Late Heal.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 20. Special.) The
profits of the New Orleans bull pool and the
small bulls who followed the lead of the big
.fellows In the recent cotton bull campaign.
amounted to about $10,500,000. seven New
Orleans men who composed the Brown clique,
cleared $7,000,000, or $1,000,000 eacn.
The small bulls who trailed In with Brown
cleared up a net profit of $3,600,000. These fig
ures were obtained today from an authoritative
source. The announcement was made today
that the bull pool baa closed out about all
Its holdings.

NORTH TAKIMA, Aug. 20. (Special.) Th

Ing deals were made: Gcorgo Ker, 70 bales

Bros., of Boston: David Harvey. 72 bales at

MANY BUYING THE STOCK
Ualou Faclfio Stockholders Increas.
ing: About -OO Per Weelc
NEW "YORK. Auy. 20. (Special.) The total
number of shareholders of the Union Pacific
to date Is 14,100. At the dividend period in
April it waa 12,092. This is an increase of
110S within three months, or an average of
370 per month. But these figures, however, do
not accurately show the extent of the present
Investment buying, nor do they show the ac
tual number of shareholders, because -the
dividends on the common and preferred stocks
are paid at the same time, and as many of the
preferred shareholders own both common and
preferred stock, their checks are made out for
tho lump sum. Because of this, it Is not
possible to state accurately the number o
shareholders.
At the office of the transfer company, new
accounts are coming In at th average rate
of 40 a day. This means 240 new stockholders
a week, 0C0 a month and 11,520 a year, pro
vided the ratio of Increase be maintained that
long.
It Is conservative to say that the number of
shareholders by the next dividend period will
aggregate 16.C00, though that many will not
receive dividends, as the transfer books will
close August 20. The holders of the com
mon stock are Increasing more rapidly than
the preferred. A dividend of 2 per cent on
each Issue has been declared for October.
There are , about 4000 shareholders of the
$100,000,000 of preferred stock, of which $00,-
550,500 Is outstanding. The holders of the
common stock number about 10,000. The com
mon stock authorized Is $135,550 500, of which
$108,761,200 Is outstanding.
Investment seekers who are on the hunt
for bargains, and who were not disturbed
either by the low prices or the threatened
litigation, have been attracted to Union Pa
clfls by Its dividend record since the panic
and receivership of 1S03. In 1803 the pre
ferred stock paid dividends of per cent;
In 1SS9. 3 per cent; In 1000, 1902 and the
present year, 4 per cent, while the common
stock paid 3 per cent In 1000 and 4 per cent
since. The high and low of the stock for
1002 and 1003 was 113 and 6Si. a drop of
45 points. At the same time the Union Pa
cific convertible 4s. held by hundreds of in
vestors, declined, the general slump belnc
from 113 to 01K. a loss of 22 points and a
hrlnkage In value of $10,350,000.
Analysis of Union Pacific business for 1002.
compared with 1901, and Its prospects for the
present year, was evidently satisfactory to In
vestment seekers. For 1903 Its total operating
expenses and taxes aggregated $25,550,220,
while Its receipts over operating expenses were
$21,941,053. In 1902 It paid $S,187.2SS In divi
dends, compared with $7,0SO,O70 In 1901. Its
surplus over fixed charges In 1902 was $14,532,-
157 compared with $12,553,505 the year before
and Its balance of surplus after paying divi
dends was $0,315,960 last year, and $4,554,
037 In 1901.
liiiilrond Cnrsliop Changes.
BUTTE. Mont., Aug. 20. A special to
tho iliner from Livingston says:
It Is stated here today on what seems
to be good authority that some Important
changes in the management of the North
ern Pacific shops in this city will take
place at an early date. It Is stated that
Master Mechanic W. S. Clarkson will be
promoted to the superlntendency of motive
power over the territory tributary to the
