Oregon Apples Bring High
Prices in Edinburgh.
FINEST- FRUIT SEEN THERE
Fancy . Newtown Pippins, Well
Packed, Sold at 20 Shillings Per
Bushel Large Profits Made
In the Deal.
V
Oregon apples are In high favor In Scotland.
A. price equal to $15 a barrel Tvas recently re
alized on a lot sold In the Edinburgh market.
This high prlea was due not only to th.e re
markable quality of the fruit, but also to Uio
excellent manner In Which It was packed. The
Edinburgh Scotsman, of Fobruary 11, In re
Viewing the apple situation .there, says:
At the present time the finest apples from
any outside source come from Oregon. Some
of the best are put up in bushel boxes, contain
ing "120 fruits each. They have sold at various
prices, depending upon the quality of the sam
ples. These range from lis to 15s for fine
specimens. But the largest and finest have
realized from 15s to 20s. A eovereign a bushel
for foreign apples In February la remarkable,
to say the least. They are Newtowns, im
mense in size, clear-skinned, of high flavor,
and, above all, well graded and attractively
racked. Esstern States Newtown Pippins
packed in barrels, the best that could be sent
from these centers, have sold for as much as
41s a barrel the highest price secured this sea
son for Newtowns in barrels. But what is
that cum to 2&s a bushel, equal to GOs a bar
rtl This wonderful difference Is not alto
gtthcrdue to variations In Quality. The small,
cican, bushel-box package plays an important
ratt In respect to price When we first advo-'
catcd the use of the noncbargeable bushcl-box
by home apple packers, the question of cost
was at once raised as an objection against its
use. But that Is of no account when the extra
prices secured by its use and the decreased
cunt of transit are considered. The foreign
growers now send us over 1,000,000 bushel
baxes of apples each year. Their use is found
remunerative by them. The prices that have
been made for apples already this year are
without paralM in the history of the trade.
But yet the foreign fruitgrower does not dom
inate tho situation in this respect exclusively.
Erltltb arples have also been cold this year at
10s a half, equal to 20s a bushel, and if the
fruit had been collected and specially graded
and packed like the Oregon fruit, it 'would
hare made higher prices cUll. Months ago
gave first and exclusive news of the actual
collection and purchase of these Oregon fruits
n the Scotsman. Wo said that they had been
fought at 10s a burfiel in the orchards of
Oregon Well, as 10,000 bushels were secured,
lv 's clear that large profits had been made on
the dea'. At the time we announced the pur
chase tons of home-grown apples were a drug
at Is 6d and 2s a bushel. These facts prove
that the demand for best apples in the British
markets is practically insatiable at high val
ues, even in seasons of abundance. With en
much fruit land available in the four king
doms, it is a pity that apple planters arc not
more buty.' As the result of these high prices
a great impetus will be given to home produce
Industries. The fruit-growing movement has
done much good to country cultivators and
he prospects for extended production are cer
tainly better than ever. Cold storage for
home-grown apples will prove of undoubted
alue to all connected with the business. As
far as the grower is concerned, it will enable
1 in to prolong the season at a time-when the
brat 'prices are realized. With a -vastly in
(Teased output by home-growers, the use. of
noncbargeable. standardized boxes and cold
storage, the Spring apple season can be made
rrort lucrative and important. Cold storage
bas enaled the foreign apple-grower to
-atrertgmeu his position in the British fruit
markets. When will the British apple-grower
recognise the value of .cold storage?
LEAVES IT TO ARBITRATION.
Krebs Declare Their Offer Was Made In
Good Faith.
SALEM, pr.. March 7. (Special.) Krebs
Bros, arc indignant over the charge that their
otter of 27 cents for choice hops was not mado
in good faith, and they are out today with a
proposal to prove that they have not refused
to buy at that figure. MoKJnley Mitchell, of
Portlattd, saye Krebs refused to take his hops
at 27 cents for the alleged reason that they
were not choice.
Conrad Krebs said .tonight that he will sub
mit the question of quality to five Salem hop-
buyers, and If the hops aro declared choice.
be will donate $500 to any charitable lnstltu
'ion In the state, Mitchell to do the same if
'he hops are declared not chplee.
In further proof of his good faith, Krebs
choirs a telegram from John Rangau. of
Grant s Yass. refusing an offer of 27 cents for
200 bales of choice hops.

TESTING TflE MARKET
SPECULATION IN STOCKS TAKES
ON WAITING ATTITUDE.
Combinations and Merger Stories
Losing Their Effect to Stimu
late the Demand. .
NEW TORK. March T. The speculation In
stocks took on rather a waiting attitude to
day, and business was largely confined to test
ing' operations to learn the temper of the mar
ket. These failed to develop any vigorous up
ward tendency, and the subsequent drop was
due as much to disappointment over this lack
as to any positive pressure.
The Northern Securities decision or supposi
tion regarding It has figured ro long and so
often as a speculative factor that the market
Is comewbat at a loss with the coacluslon
reached. But the apathetic tone which Is
creeping over the market evidences that the,
many combinations and merger stories, nose
of which have materialized, are losing their
force to stimulate demand. The failure of the
much-talked-of Southern Iron combination has
had an admonitory effect, and Is regarded as
showing the highly credulous condition of mind
Into which the speculators had been led. -V
natural spirit of misgiving regarding other
vague stories, en the strength of which stocks
have been bought. Is pic result.
Authoritative denial was made today of a
recently prevailing rumor of a new Issue of
Sugar stock with valuable subscription priv
lieges. The strike on the Interboro.ugh system
In New York City had no very clear effect
directly through the stocks Immediately con
cerned, whleh. In fact, showed strength; bat
the effect was bad on the central speculative
iTT!Tir fiior w&jc a direct effect alSO-in the
reduction of the attendance at the "Stock Ex
change caused by the difficulty In getting to
business,- and the resultant dullnoss oi tns
market was partly due to this fact-
There was no change In current conditions
of money or business to alter the tone of the
stock market. Money on call continued easy.
An easier tone of London dtaxmnts led to re
newed rumors of a reduction In the Bank of
England rate on Thursday. But Paris was a
seller of securities, apparently on account, or.
the dark Russian prospects. New Torit ex
change at Chicago .declined to a small dis
count, and the New York Subtreasury contin
ued to take a constoeraoie mini iru-.u. ure
York banks.
Rexlved rumors of a lead merger were re
sponsible for the strength of National Lead
and the Smelting stocks. The few gains were
Doerlv held, and the market as a whole plainly

the growth of the Fall-sown crop was the
prime factor In an extremely weak: wheat
market here today. At the opening the mar'
ket shewed considerable weakness. May being

down Uc to tie at 97c to 9Sc Sentiment
In the pit was generally bearish, the majority
of traders being on the selling side. The in
itlal decline was due partly to a slump of
d at Liverpool. The weakness abroad, how
ever, was otless Influence than domestic con
ditions. Weather throughout tlie Winter wheat
section of the United States was extremely fa
vorable to the development of the new crop.

gradually declined until the price touched
S1.13K. July sold off to 06Hc Later May
rallied on covering by shorts, but July was
heavy the entire day. A factor that tended
to create some demand for May was a report
by a local crop statistician, giving a bullish
eetlmate on the amount of wheat In termers'
hands. The statistics given by the expert
makes the reserves the smallest In eight years
for this time of the year. The market closed
weak, with May lc off at 31.14H- July closed
lic down, at 96c.
During the first part of the session the corn

oats market, and values declined- quite sharply
on selling by a prominent commlsslonhouse.

Gets Warrant for His Nelgbors.
A. -warrant was Issued out of Justice
Beld's court yesterday for the arrest of
Samuel Boise, C. Duncan, Florence
and Sanders, upon the complaint of
A. H. Balberts, who cnarged that the de
fendants had threatened to kill him.
All live a short distance outside of the
city limits beyond the reservoir, and the
present trouble seems to be the outcome
of a. nexshborhooQ row.
BalberLs says that In a lawsuit in which
Boise was one of the principals more than
a year nso. he appeared as a witness, and
-when Boise lost the suit he attributed
his defeat to the testimony given by Bal-
berts. Since that time Boise has shown
HI feelins toward Balberta, the latter al
leges, and has tried In every way to In
jure and Intimidate- him.
