DRIED FRUIT TRADE
Prunes Will Open at Last
YearVPrices.
LARGE CROP IN THIS STATE
Ebcdtement in Peaches and Apricots
Unconfirmed Rumors of Corners
Already Expected Local Prod
uce Quotations.
The indications aro that the prune market
wlH open this season at last year's prices.
This is the opinion of tho local trade. There
will be a big crop in all sections of the North-
-west. It is difficult to say much about sizes
yet, but there will probably be an abundance
of 40-50s and plenty of C0-60s. with few
80-lOs. There Is not much movement In the ar
ticle yet. The crop of the Northwest has been
variously estimated at from 25.000.000 to 40.
000,000 pounds. In California reports are
equally conflicting as to the yield, but the
general opinion Is that a crop of 140.000.000
pounds will be gathered. The harvest there
Is now in full blast. According to San Fran
cisco advices both spot and future prunes are
neglected at this time. Quotations on old
prunes are largely nominal In the absence of
wholesale transactions, and further, tho carry
over consists of small sires and sales of these
when, made are by the ton, without reference
to the basis price or sires. At the moment
there is a very light foreign demand. The few
sales being made for export are on nine-point
and prices range from 2& to 2 cents for out
side and 24 to 3 cents for Santa Clara stock,
October shipment.
Great Interest Is taken here In other lines
x dried fruit. New apricots are offering,
but at much higher prices. The crop was short.
compared with last year and It Is reported
that all stocks are out of growers' hands.
The market for peaches is equally strong. A
report is current thta a combination of buy
ers has bought up the greater portion of the
output, but this Is doubted here. At any
rate, dealers anticipate a rising market.
Hoppicking; Under Way.
SALEM Aug. 31. (Special.) Hopplcklng
began in a large number of yards in this vi
clnlty today, and before the end of the week
nearly all growers will have their crews at
work. "While 40 cents a box Is claimed to be
the ruling price of picking, many growers are
paying B0 cents. Among those paying the
latter price is H. J. Ottenhelmer, who has one
of the best yards In this vicinity. It seems
probable that 50 cents will soon be the ruling
price, but that growers will insist upon clean
picking if they pay that figure.

MAKESSHOWOFSTRENGTH
GROWTH OF VOLUME OF BUSINESS
OX STOCK EXCHANGE.
Neither Activity Nor Firmness Lasts
Through the Day Some En
couraging; Features.
NEW YORK, Aug. 31. There was a consid
erable growth In the volume of business In
stocks today and a show of strength which was
quite imposing, but neither the activity nor
the strength lasted the day out. The aggregate
transactions rose to the l,000,000-hare mark,
but the largest part of this was done In tho
last two hours before noon.
During the active period of the market, ad
vances over Saturday of 1 to 2 points had be
come quite numerous, but the last prices of
the day show very few gains In excess of
point. The demonstration of strength was
evidently due largely to concerted action by
professional traders. Uncovered bears became
discouraged by the dull resistance of last
week's market to any attack and the bullish
traders became correspondingly encouraged 'and
by professional operations drove the bears to
cover. Professional sentiment was more cheer
ful on account of Improved factors In the
general outlook, but there was nothing to show
any considerable outside demand 'for stocks.
There Is no doubt that confidence over the
money situation has been greatly increased
since the Intimation of the readiness on the
part of the Secretary of the Treasury to de
posit $40,000,000 of money now In the Treas
ury In depository banks. This is felt to be
an effectual safeguard against a threat of
violent stringency in money, and money lend
ers are decidedly less exacting In their con
ditions for time loans. Quoted rates are only
slightly lower, but the stringent conditions
which havo attached to the making of loans for
some time past are relaxed. These conditions
were prohibitive, except to favorite borrowers,
on the part of some of the banks. The limits
of the available supplies have been consider
ably extended and with the present surplus
reserve held by the banks, confidence Is pretty
firmly established In tho ability of the money
market to meet requirements upon It.
Encouraging reports of railroad traffic today,
last week's cheerful tone over the general
trade situation by' the important mercantile
agencies and the belief that a small absorp
tion of securities by investors, both foreign
and domestic, has been going on, had to do
with the stronger feeling in the stock market.
Much was made of the transfer of the holdings
of tho underwriting syndicate for Metropolitan
securities to other dominant interests In the
property, tending to consolidate the control.
Very free Inferences were drawn by tho
traders from this transaction of a coming con
solidation of all the traction and lighting In
terests In Greater New York and in outlying
territories. A considerable stimulation to the
speculation was the result, but heavy realiz
ing in Amalgamated Copper and the Inference
drawn from that of the attitude towards the
market of the controlling Interest checked the
advance with the result that followed. The
market became almost stagnant in the latter
stages, but closed heavy. Some buying for
London account, which was largo In Erie,
helped the early advance. Reading hung back
on account of utterances attributed to the
executive head of the system pointing to an
accumulation of steam size anthracite and a
possible curtailment of the production In con
sequence. St. Paul was the leader In the
railroad list and ,enJoyed an extreme advance
of 2 points. The strength in the corn mar
ket and reports of unseasonable temperature
had their Influences on the reaction In stocks,
owing to the Importance, now placed on the
outcome of the corn crop.

CHICAGO WHEAT MARKET.
Profit-Taking Causes a Brealc Near
the Close.
CHICAGO", Aug. 31. Foreign news, Increased
receipts. Increased visible supf ly and favorable
weather were the bearish factors In wheat.
Selling became general during tho early part
of the session, carrying the price of Septem
ber down at tho opening at SO-c to SOHSSOVic,
with December off 14c The demand Improved
later, the buying being mostly by commission
houses, and a rally to 80ic for September
and 81c for December followed. The ad-
ance did not hold, however, profit taking caus
ing a break In the. nearer month to 70c the
closo being at a loss of 8T4o at SO880Vlc,
1th December back to 81?s8S114c, a net loss
of 14c
Light offerings In corn gave a comparatively
strong market early. September closed
Vic lower. December was a shade lower at
50c at the end.
Oats ruled steady, with free buying by local
traders and some commission business counter
acting the effect of scattered selling. Sep
tember closed c lower at 34?sc
Scattered liquidation and lower prices at the
yards caused a weaker tone In provisions.
Trade was of a good volume, but without
features. Brokers and packers were credited
with doing the selling, which resulted In a
decline of 27Ho in September pork at $12.2214.

Xovr That the Land Bill Is Passed.
NEW YORK, Aug. 3L "Ireland has
crossed th& turning line Into a newer and
better civilization," says ex-Lord Mayor
Valentine Dillon, of Dublin, who has just
arrived on his way to Pittsburg. "Only
those who have lived in that land all
their days, as I have done, can fully ap
preciate the condition of the provinces.'
"While not optimistic of Ireland's future,
Mr. Dillon declares that the British gov
ernment has eventually opened its ayes
"And now tha.t its eyes are opened," he
continued, "we actually feel better. Per
sonally I've never been of an aggressive
nature, but had the turning point not soon
been reached Ireland would have been
forced to a condition that Is anything but
desirable. But the new land bill has an
tlcipatcd such a crisis and the next ten
years will see Ireland rid of the system by
which the provinces have been Irapov
erlshed.
