All Interest on Front street yesterday centered la turkey. .Receipt "were beavy, hut not up to expectations, and as a. result the market for dressed turkeys was firm all day at 22$ cents. "What today and tomorrow will bring forth Is an open Question. It Is not believed too many turkeys will come In, but at tha same time It Is doubtful whether the price will advance further, as retailers aro adverse to high prlcea, It Is estimated that 40,000 pounds of dressed turkeys arrived Snnday and yesterday. To day's receipts are expected to b much heavier, and the price will depend on the quantity re ceived. Tha high prices now ruling are due largely to the competition la the country. Baa Francisco and Pugei Sound buyers have scoured tbo Valley and Southern Oregon, pay ing 30 cents .for all that was. offered. While" 22fc oents was quoted In the local market yes terday, that price was only for tho best stock. Many of the offerings sold at 20 cents and come rough, bruised fowls went as low as a bit. Lire turkeys were not numerous and were only In fair demand at 18 cents. No chickens came In. causing that line to strengthen somewhat. Quite a few dressed geese were received, which readily brought 12 cants. Live geese were quiet at the old price. DOUGLAS COUNTY SHIPMENTS. Nineteen Thousand Turkeys Scat to Outside Markets. S JIOSEBURG, Nov. 23. (Special.) Turkey nhtpmenta from. Douglas County for the Thanksgiving markets closed last night and aggregated about 10,000 birds.

Some thousands of chick ens were also marketed at the same time, and the aggregate poultry shipments for the Thanksgiving trade will bring Into this county not less than $40,000 this season. Oakland has for a number of years beea the chief poultry center of Oregon, and still continues far In the lead of any other shipy ping point. Roseburgs output this jear Is 50 per coat larger than a year ago and the product for the county is 25 per cent in ex cess of any former season.

Oregon has a big crop this year and their prices are low, much ower than California. Alum Mountain. German papers report that an "alum moun tain' exists in China, which is not only noted as &. natural phenomenon, but is also a source of wealth for the people of 1ft vicinity, as they annually take many tons of alum from it. The mountain is said to have a circumference at the babe of not lees than ten miles and is nearly 1900 feet high. The alum is quarried in Immense blocks, is then heated In large ovens, and afterward dissolved In boiling water. From this liquid the alum crystallizes In layers of abo.it half a foot in thickness, which are cut up in blocks of ten pounds each. The Chinese use 4t mainly for purifying water. Samples of Standard Grains. Nearly two tons of samples of the grain standards selected for Oregon, Washington and Idaho have been r&celved by the local Chamber of Commerce for distribution, These samples will be used to supply the various officials and grain dealers in places where grains from the atates mentioned Is handled.

TOP' Fluctuations Due to Steel Preferred- Stiffness of Call Money Rate London Market Better. NEW YORK, Nov. 23.-Today's stock market stood up well la the face of a number of un toward circumstances dnd closed quite firm at the top level of the day on the most actlvo market jof the day. Southern Pacific assumed the leadership of an early advance, which was rather decidedly checked by an outpouring of United States. Steel prefcrred.whlch carried that stock down to 50H and awakened renewed apprehension of lis further demoralizing effect on the whole stock market. The persistence with which as sertions have reappeared that the dividend on the common stock is to be suspended and that On the preferred stock to be reduced has made its impression upon speculative sentiment since the authorities in the corporation, who havo been appealed to for Information, go no fur ther than to say that the quesUon is one re maining for the future to decide. The sugges tion which found its way to the public today, that a reduction of the dividend on the pre ferred would appeal poorly with the corpo ration's privilege to issue $50,000,000 of second bonds to retire the preferred stock, foemed lb have a more reassuring effect on the specu lators and helped the preferred stock, which closed with a net gain of a point, .bo sUffness of the call money market was another deterrent factor toward the rise. Call loans touched 7H "While the demand for money, which caused this rise, was unmis takable. It seemed to be viewed without fear. Confidence is felt that any real need for money would draw further gold from London. Sat urday's arrivals of gold amounted to $3,591,623, which will, therefore, figure for the full wks average in next Saturday's bank statement. The demand for money is regarded as normal for the laBt week of the month.- r Another factor of possible disturbance was the collapse la Republl6 Steel preferred, which lost 7 points today. Circumstantial reports were In circulation of the necessities at the company for additional capital, which it was alleged would be met by a bond Issue as well as by reducing the dividend oh the preferred stock. A more cheerful tone In the London market was a help to the local- market. The bond market was mora active, but ir regular. Total sales, par Value, ,$2,529,000. United States bonds wero unchanged on the last call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. .-.Sales. Hlzh. LowvOose. Atchison 11,100 65H 64 65), do preferred 1.300 t& S9fc aa Baltimore &.
