SALT WAR RAGING
Trouble Between Rival Cali
fornia Companies.
ANOTHER CUT IN PRICES
Overproduction Is the Cause of the
Trouble-Orange Market Also In
a Bad Way-Local Produce
Price Current
The war between the rival salt companies
f San Francisco is having Its effect here,
mother drop of 50 cents a ton In half
rround being announced. The (rouble In Cali
fornia la between the Imperial Salt Company
the successor of the Federal Salt Trust, and
the Amalgamated Bait- Company, a co-opera?
tlve concern made up of producers. The
present struggle Is not looked upon as a "war
of extermination, but Is rather the result
of an oversupply 0f salt, and It Is believed
In the trade that the matter will eventually
be patched up and prices raised. Present
quotations are said to be. below tbe actual
cost of production, which should be another
inducement for the' early settlement of the
dispute. In the meantime the market is de
cidedly active, many Jobbers and speculators
taking advantage of the fight to stock up.
This troubte between the salt companies Is
periodical and finds Its origin In the full
prices that are Quoted when no war Is on.
The large profits are then an Inducement to
capital to embark In tbe enterprise and the
result Is that the field Is soon overcrowded,
too much salt accumulates and a war Is
started. No one pretends to know how this
trouble will end. but Jobbers believe the trou
ble will be settled amicably between the con
tending parties.
Orange Market In Bad Way.
SAN BERNARDINO. CaL, Jan. 21. E. F.
VanLe&ven, manager of the San Bernardino
Fruit Exchange,- controlling numerous fruit
associations, notified orangegrowers today to
stop picking until further notice. In ex
planation he says that not to his knowledge
vhas the outlook been so serious as It is at
present. Monday and' Tuesday there was no
auction of fruit at New York, and all other
Eastern markets have been closed on account"
of the cold wave. The market Is glutted
with fruit, and of the 2CO0 carloads In transit
the prospects are that every box will be sold
at a loss.
"It is impossible at present to approximate
the loss that will follow." said Mr. Van
Leaven. "Our packing houses are swamped
with fruit, but none will be -shipped until
. that which Is In transit has been sold. It
may be, with the clearing of the market,
evn at greatly reduced prices, our next
shipments will bring better returns."
PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain. Flour. Feed Etc
"Wheat Is dull and unchanged here. The
f market Is In no way affected by the manipu
lation at Chicago, as England has not re
sponded no the sensational advance there. Club
wheat here is quoted at 73 cents, but shippers
say a cent less would more correctly repre
sent export values. Three cents better la
quoted on the Bound, as they have more
mills than wheat there, while hero there is
. more wheat than mills. Oats ore still firm
ly held. Hay 'appears to be a shade weaker
under heavy offerings. Mill feed Is strong.

OUTBURST OF ACTIVITY
STRONG UPWARD MOVEMENT IN
STOCKS AT NEW YORK.
Large and Obstinate Short Interest
Routed-Proflt-Taklng In the
Leading Shares.
NEW YORK. Jan. 21. The Influences which
have been gathering force for some time In
the stock market caused an outburst of ac
tivity and strength today which carried the
whole market to a higher level and routed
a large and obstinate short interest. The
rush to cover of the shorts was an Important
Influence In carrying some of the most active
stocks upward and' the speculators who were
long on these stocks were able to take their
profits at the expense of their bearish breth
ren. The movement was without any impor
tant news developments beyond those that
have been under discussion for several days.
There was a tendency toward crystalliza
tion of the belief that war between Rus
sia and Japan Is likely to be averted for
the present. The covering demand was very
heavy from various outside points. The
leadership In the market operations was
rather clearly traceable to several sources
which have been - Imposing influences In great
market movements of the last few years
and the prestige of this leadership helped
to demoralize the bears. There was enor
mous profit-taking throughout the day. at first
in stocks which led the preliminary advance
today. These Included Southern Pacific. Rock-J
Island. Beading, Erie, Amalgamated Copper
and United States Steel preferred. Later,
when some of the laggards were brought
Into the movement, the profit-taking shifted
to stocks which had advanced in the early
part of the day. This double process of
closing up speculative commitments served to
reduce the technical forces in the market
for a further movement In either direction.
The breaking of the drouth in the South
west was one of the helpful influences of
the day.
Speculative hopes were expected of a large
diversion of profits of cotton speculation into
stocks, and the Initiation to stock exchange
membership of the leader of the cotton specu
lation was an appropriate feature of the day.
The market closed active and firm and near
the top prices Jor a majority of stocks.
Bonds were active and strong. Total sales,
par value. $7,075,000. United States bonds
were unchanged on call.

BXEAK IN JULY WHEAT.
May Option Closes Barely Steady at Chicago
Marked Activity.
CHICAGO. Jan. 21. The day was one of
marked activity and excitement In the wheat
pit- Opening quotations were steady. May be
ing "VitC higher to c lower at 01602c
Trading was barely under way, however,
when a general selling movement began In
July. The cause- of the sudden activity In
this option wag' the relief from drouth ex
perienced by jfce growing crop In the South
west, where copious rains wen; reported. With
the. heavy selling In July, small holders In
May decided to secure profits Npefcre it wat
too late! As a result general liquidation en
sued. . The -leader of the longs bought openly
In an effort to stem the tide, but offerings
were too liberal, and before the break had
been checked May had declined to 00V&C
a loss of lc from the" high point. July
was much weaker than May and sold from
83q to 84c at the opening down' to 81c
a drop of 2 centsT" With May at 00 Vic,
early short sellers began to buy, and the
market gradually recovered. Commission
houses, and local traders were liberal buy
ers the latter part of the day, and May
regained all of Its early loss, the price again
touching 92c just before the c!ok Final
figures weer at 01 692c July did not re
spond to the Improved sentitaent as readily
as the nearby delivery and closed with a
loss of lc at 83c
Corn opened steady on firm cables and un
favorable weather. A firm, tone prevailed at
the close, although May was c lower,
at 4050c i
Oats fared the best of the grains, and
while there was a sharp break early. In
sympathy with the wheat weakness, all of
the loss was recovered. May closed at 42
642c
Provisions held steady In the face of the
sharp break in grain prices. ' Much smaller
receipts of hogs than bad been estimated.
with an advance of 10 cents In the price at
the yards, were the steadying Influences. Pork
closed 2c higher at $13.27. Lard was up
5c at $7.25, while ribs were a shade higher
at $6.706'C72.

PIG IRON WEAKER.
Southern Makers of Pig Iron Are Shading
Prices.
NEW YORK. Jan. 21. The latest advices
from the leading distribution centers point
rather to a slight weakening tendency in the
pig Iron markets, says the Iron Age. Some
of the Southern makers, seeing business go
ing almost entirely to Northern producers.
are shading prices. Complaints are coming
from 'some foundries that business Is slow
with them, and they naturally hesitate about
additional purchases. Still the tonnage al
most entirely for the first quarter Is fair.
A number of the leading Southern Interests
continue to work on a plan to harmonize the
recent differences and to reach some com'
roon ground for prices.
In the East there has been a little more
demand for basic and, low phosphorous pig
from the steel works, where business has Im
proved somewhat. The deadlock In the steel
rail trade continues, but It looks as though
the logic of the situation will force the
makers to give way.
There is a little better feeling in the bar
trade East and West, but the sheet trade
still shows" symptoms of weakness. The ton
nage In plates and shapes is better, but
while pool prices on these materials are firm,
those works have an .'advantage which man
ufacture bridges and buildings from the stuff
made in their' own mills. They are making
low bids on contracts for bridges and build
ings. The result Is that the views of tho
consumer are really being met and their in
terests being stimulated. The demand for
wire products la very heavy under the stimu
lus of the recent slight advance
The scrap markets have Deen quite excited
and the claim Is made that In a number of
Instances prominent dealers have 'been forced
to cover short sales.
Advices from abroad are to the effect that
the German steel makers are making, very
low prices for steel In the International mar
kets. Our American makers do not appear
to be meeting these prices, which would be
equivalent to about $14.50 for billets at Pitts
burg. As a matter of fact, the leading In
terest has been declining business offered for
delivery during the next few months.

Blaine's Garfield Memorial Address.
Saturday Evening PosL.
The fame of Mr. Blaine will. In my
judgment, rest more upon his memorial
address In the hall of the National House
of Representatives, on the death of Presi
dent Garfield, than upon reciprocity or
any act of his public life. It was a won
derful oration, and worthy the best days
of oratory In ancient or modern times.
Nothing in tbe English language is more j
oeauuiui uum nosing worus ox in 13
great tribute to the murdered President. 1
Their mournful cadence will never be for
gotten by -those who heard them, and
they will be read with sympathetic emo
tion so long as the English language Is
written or spoken among men:
"Gently, silently, the love of a -great
people bore the pale sufferer to the
linged-for healing of the sea, to live or to
die as God should will, within sight of its
heaving billows, within sound o Its mani
fold voices. With wan, fevered face ten
derly lifted to the cooling breeze, he
looked out wistfully upon the ocean's
changing waters; on its fair sails whiten
ing in the morning light; on Its restless
waves rolling shoreward to break and die
Smeath the noonday sun; on the red
ouds of evening arched low to the hori
zon; on the serene and shining pathway
of the stars. Let us think that hl3 dying
eyes read a mystic meaning which only
the rapt and parting soul may know. Let
us believe that In the silence o the re
ceding world he heard the great waves
breaking on a farther shore and felt al
ready upon his wasted brow the breath of
the eternal morning."
