THE MORNNTG OKEQONIAK, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER ' 30,. 1904, 15 lGOFFEE is a puzzle ) Prices Are-High in Spite of Large Stocks, FURTHER ADVANCE EXPECTED Flurry In the Eastern Market for Ore gon Italian Prunes Local Produce and Jobbing .Quotations. The coffee market la a nuzzle to traders. Supplies are larger than they have ever been and still lower grade are almost 3 cents higher than they were last Tear at this time. Stocks of all "kinds exceed the supply of a year ago by almost 1,000.000 bales. No. 7 Rio continues to fluctuate between SX and S$& cents, as It has for the last three or four months. The big Interests In the coffee market seem to have a Ann hold on all of this sort of coffee and evidently must have great faith In the market, as it is said they are continually adding to their holdings. The ordinary coffee dealer and roaster would like to see a break in the market, but a careful canvas of opinions of brokers and im porters of New Tork and Saa Francisco indi cate that they believe in the market and in stead of a break anticipate an advance. Some sorts of high-grade' coffee are soft, and there have been some slight declines in them, particularly among Central American varie ties. Java coffees are a little firmer, and Siberian Javas aro particularly strong. Mocha rzx&e considerable of an advance about two months ago and this has been maintained. Hurry In Oregon Prunes. The flurry in the New York market for Ital ian prunes Is reported by the Journal of Com- iRverce of the 24th as follows: 'One of the few commodities in which 'there 'was any display of activity was Oregon Ital ian prunes. The soot stock in first hands is closely cleaned up and there seems to be little or nothing obtainable on the Coast, some brokers asserting that they have orders for a number of cars in hand which they are un able to fill. Last reported sales for shipment wer'o on & 2Hc basis for 20s, one small iot being all of that size that could be found, 2c basis for 20s and lc for 40s. On the spot email sales of 30s have been made at 6c and of 40s at SUc. There was little or no demand for spot Santa Clara prunes, and no inquiries tor forward shipments from the Coast were re ported. , LIVESTOCK MARKET. Trices at Portland Union Stockyards Ye terday.

Continued liquidation brought local specu lative values for wheat down to the lowest point in a long time. The market closed weak with net losses on the day of 254c for Decem ber and 114c for May. Holders of December contracts evidently do not want to accept de livery in such" a weak market. Spot wheat declined lUc Barley options were lower, but spot was steady. Other cereals' were quiet and unchanged. Flour was easier. Feeds tuffs were firm. Hay was quiet. The butter market has a better tone. Fancy creameries are cleaning up more readily and firmer prices are expected. Sales for north ern shipment are reported at 2122c Eggs are plentiful and easy. Cheese Is steady. Receipts. 27.000 pounds of butter. 2100 pounds of cheese and 17,000 dozen eggs. Leading dealers complain of dullness in the fruit market. Stocks of oranges are exces sively large and move. slowly at weak prices. Other citrus fruits are abundant and easy. Bananas are plentiful. The market is over burdened with poor grapes, but fancy shipping stock is comparatively scarce and firm. The apple market is congested. (All grades are weak and large quantities are spoiling in the stores for lack of custom. Really fancy potatoes are inflight supply and firm, but medium and low grades are too abundant and weak. Sweets are steady. Onions are Arm. A carload of fancy Oregon is selling at $2.35. Several carloads from Oregon and Utah are said to be on the way. Garden vegetables are easy.

SPECULATORS TAKE HOLD INTEREST WELL MAINTAINED IN STOCK MARKET. Greater Part of Advances Are Among Obscure Stocks Decline in Steel Preferred. NEW YORK. Nov. 29. Speculative Interest was well maintained In today's stock market. and another large day's business was trans acted. There were points of aggressive strength in the market, and these Included some of the Influential railroad stocks. But the greater part of the advances of the day were among stocks of less credit and sharp reactions were suffered by recent influential leaders of the advance. This was notably true of the great Southern trunk line stocks and Colorado Fuel, which made such brilliant advances yester day, and also on United States Steel pre ferred. The heaviness of this stock is always an Important sympathetic influence on the whole market and it was offset by the etrengih of the common stock todav." The lat ter stock did show good resistance; however, in the reactionary periods of the market. At one time during the day the reaction was fairly comprehensive and prices were well be low yesterday's -dose level. For the most part, the movement was constantly Irregular, sharp advances and dull sagging movement occurring at the same time. The putting out of short lines on the gen eral reaction seemed to afford a basis for the later rally, which also became fairly gen eral. The rise In some of the obscure stocks was sensational and the lack of explanation for them In any news developments aroused suspicion of a manipulative origin. Taken in connection with tho unusual number of losses recently among outside stock dealers and bucket shops, presumably due to commitmWs on the short side of a rising market, the pre sumption Is suggested that a campaign against the known position of bucket shops on certain stocks is the ground for the manipulated ad vances in these stocks. The late strong rise in United States Steel followed the publica tion of a rumor that the corporation had se cured an option on the Lackawanna Steel Company. Canadian Pacific was hurt by its decrease in October net earnings. Sterling exchange recovered and London dis counts rose U. The price of gold there was further marked down. The call money rate at the stock exchange was forced as low as 2 per cent late In the day under free offer ings, but closed higher. The tegular dividends only on Sugar refuted the predictions that a division of the surplus was contemplated, but did not prevent the stock from being one of the features of the rise. The movement of the market continued to the close. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value, $8,035,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. ''Closing Sales.

Coroner "Wea ver today rendered a verdict Irt the case of C. A. Parker, vice-president of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton and Fere Marquette railroads, who died suddenly In his office November 19, finding that death was caused by suicide wlthtprussic acid. Mr. Parker's death at the time was supposed to 'have been from, natural causes and no autopsy was held, neither was the Coroner disposed to hold an inquest, and tho body was forwarded to St Louis for burial. On the day of Mr. Parker's burial, however, and almost at the 'hour of his funeral. Miss Elsie Ges- terllng died by her own hand In Chi cago.

WHEAT BREAKS AGAIN CAUSED BY BIG STOCKS AND POOR FLOUR DEMAND. Bearish Crop News Also Has a De pressing. Effect in the Chi cago Pit. CHICAGO. Nov. 29. Influenced by early firm ness la the Liverpool wheat market, said to be 'due to reports of unsettled -weather in Ar gentina, the wheat market here opened firm. December was up Vic. at $1.07Ti, and May ttSKc to Sec, au f L09tt1.09. From the atart, however, there was free selling by commission houses with Northwestern connections. Pit traders were inclined to fol low. A private dispatch denying unfavorable weather In Argentina caused some weakness. Initial quotations marked the high point of the day, prices gradually receding as trading progressed. One of the principal elements in the situation was the accumulation of wheat in store at the Northwest. A report from Min neapolis stated that stocks of wheat have in creased over 600,000 bushels during the past three days. The cash market at Minneapolis was extremely weak. In this connection, much significance was attached to a rumor that, owing to poor demand for flour, all the flour mills at Minneapolis and Milwaukee were likely to close down. In addition to the bearish situation in the Northwest, a local statistician's summary of lnter-wheat conditions was a hard blow to the bulls, who have been trying to create alarm out of the drouth in the South west. The summary not only claimed the sit uation to be good in most localities; but pre dicted that, with a fair snow protection, the dry Autumn will help the crop, inasmuch as the lack of nsplsture has forced extra root growth. Some crop-damago news came la dur ing the day. but apparently had little stimu lating effect. At Sl.06, December reached the low point of the day. May declined to S1.0SH- The market closed weak, with De cember at $1.0634. Final figures on May were S1.0861.0SH. December corn opened a shade lower, at 48c, eold off to -iSViC. and closed at 4Sc May ranged between 45c and 45c, and closed at 45a December oats opened a shade higher at 29 29Vc. sold between 29c and 29tc. and closed at 29c. May closed with a loss of ic, at 31Vi31c Liberal hog receipts and -weakness of wheat and corn caused some liquidation of provisions, but prices showed only slight changes. At the close. January pork and lara were each off 2&c, and ribs were a shade lower. The leading futures ranged as follows: "WHEAT. Open.
