BERRIES-Oregon receipts increas ing: decline to 20323c. SI M There it no abatement of the activity In th. wool market, particularly in Eastern Ore sou. Buyers have pent rated every section of the Eastern counties, taking up the wool as fast aa the grow come to market. Prac tically all the purchases so far made, have keen on the sheeps" back, very little shorn wool .having changed hands. It Is difficult to sec what will be left for the auctions, the ftrst of -which opens . at Pendleton on he 22d. Nearly all the wool In that territory has been contracted for and fully half of tho Heppner wool Is already sold, while 'a num bed 6f purchases have also been made in the. Shaniko district. Buyers are paying from. 37 to 18 cents for average best grades, and a -few choice clips have brought as high as JP?4 cents. That the market will pass 20 cents. ' is the general belief of well-posted wool men. Fleeces of heavy shrinkage, how- j evr, do not command these prices, and come """'oft grades have been sold down around 14 ceats. Som of the heaviest transactions made in i the lrt few days were In Wheeler County, where laidor Koshland. representing a firm of this city, bought up a number of offerings at Srom 17 to 18 cents. TJhe following are the names of the growers who disposed of their clips to him: Frank A. Knox, 25.000 pounds;- B. C. L. L. S. & L. Co, 60,000 ' TH4s: James Hunt, 10.000. pounds: A. J.

Receipts of Oregon strawberries yesterday war the largest of the season, about SO crates arriving. At the opening of business a price of 30 cents was quoted, but thjs soon dscllnftd to 2025 cents. Several huriarcd crates of California, berries were received and old generally at the. former price, $1.30 1.86 per craf. city, .the only shading being on fruit of off quality. The weather was rather against the trade, and the (demand was not strong. yesterday's reports from "Fssrln were or heavy rain In that district, --from which it is taken that the fruit to ar rive here later In the week will not be, so good. It is probable that before choice shlp Hientare again received. Oregon berries will r he in. such supply as to take the place of - California. A quantity of California cherries came up yosterday, in the lot being the first Royal Ab seedlings. These and Tartarlns brought f 1.8641.76 per "box. A car or oranges and a -car -of bananas were the only heavy re t Ij)ls of the day. SPECULATORS BUV BUTTER. Creamery Stocks en Front Street -Ire Kept Down. Speculators' are keeping Front street nearly fetrfe of butter, paying 19 cents for fancy ifces alid 16 cents for tub. Some selling to " cHait Vft is reported at 17i ccntx The best of lhlr butter is going into storage for Sum mr use These operations tend to steady the SMtrket but do not improve it, as any ad vaaee would at once check such speculation. Ta effy creameries are also in better Viape. o ff as supplies are concerned, .putting awyilr surplus and readily moving the rei4r at 20 cents. This figure Is still ptKc4'a outside orders, but will probably . be ILrofi P to next week. JSThere is no change in the egg market. One 4 house moved a part of its surplus to Seattle. r Kr ttkr (ImIrs were without Jthlnnlncr nr. 'fde.

A ft-ry alow poultry market Is reported. Prieea have" again declined, but not enough yet to stimulate buying, and thero will hav io be a further reduction before there Is a xtBerai ' movement. Most of the Inoulrv is lor sssHLjl-size chickens, which clearly shows the unwillingness of purchasers to take large sise fowls at the high rates. For the fanci est hen, not over 15 cents was quoted yes- terdaV. ad these purchases were generally for hroedlBff purposes. For ordinary market csickMkc prices ruled a cent under this figure. The ducks and geese coming to hand are poor, aa. this is the laying and setting season. ad 'sch poultry is consequently not -itf- de xmbs. Very few yog ducks are oKering yet ? Scarcity of Cabbage!

The market was quoted weak, but no lower. Lambs also came in freely and were slow of sale. Pork was not in' heavy supply, and was quoted strong. Old mutton was unchanged. 4 B-aBk'Cleartags.

The Oregon weekly crop bulletin of the "Weather Bureau says In part: The weather" during -the week was too cdol for rapid growth, and crops on the ' whole did not -advance so rapidly as during the preceding week. There were several sharp frosts, the most damaging of which occurred "Wednesday morning, at which tim tender vegetables and some varieties of fruit were Injured. Plowing and seeding are now practically completed, and work on Summer fallow Is progressing nicely. Fall and Spring grain continue in excellent condition. "Wheat, oats. rye and barley are growing satisfactorily. and in some sections- of Western Oregon rye and barley are beginning to head. Hops have reached the tops of the wires"" In ftme fa vored localities, but tn many yards the crop Is ""coming up unevenly, necessitating the cutting back" of the vines. Corn and potato planting continues. Some corn Is up and the stand Is reported' as "very good. Early potatoes were quite badly frost ed . during the week, and tops In many lo calities being frozen to the ground. Gardens have made slow growth owing to the lack of sunshine. Meadows and pastures are in fine condition and stock looks wclL .Lambing is about over. Sheep and goat shearing con tinues, with clip generally above average. All tree fruit, except late apples, more or less injured by 'frost, but reports as to the extent continue very conflicting. Peaches, prunes and cherries, however, have suffered most. Bush fruit and strawberries promise good yields. PORTLAND QUOTATIOX Graln. Flour, Feed, Etc "WHEAT Club. S4066c rr bushel; blue- stem.

CHICAGO. May 2. A liberal decrease in the world' visible supply bad a strengthen ing effect on the wheat market here today. Falling off tn primary receipts also tended to advance prices. The wheat market had a firm undertone the greater prt( of the ses sion. Under the influence of higher prices at Liverpool the market opened firm, with July up "HSHc. at S3H9S3Hc For a time pit traders were free sellers, predictions of rain over the wheat belt In general being responsible for the greater part of the selling pressure The best demand was from short. After July had sold off to 2!Jc. offerings dwindled and a firm tone again developed. As trading progressed, the firmness changed to decided' strength. A powerful factor was a decrease of l.SOO.000 bushels In the world's available stocks. Last year there was an In crease of about 1,000.000 bushels. Total pri mary receipts were less than for the corre sponding day a year age This fact had much to do with late bullish sentiment. In addition, advices were received claiming dam age by rust In Texas and Oklahoma. The highest point on July was reached just be fore the cio&e when the price touched Sc The market finished strong with July at S3Hc An ejetremcly small movement caused ac tive covering by shorts in the corn pit today, resulting in a strong market. July opened H9 Uc higher, at 46K0''6-Kc sold between 46Sc and 47HC sod closed at 4014c Trading in the oats pit was dull the en tire day. but the tone was firm. July opened unchanged at 2Sc sold up to 291ic, and closed &t 29H629UC Provisions were firm on smaller receipts of hogs. At the close, July pork was up 5 cents; lard was a shade higher, and ribs were up 12H cents. The leading futures ranged as follows: WKEUT. Open. High. Low.

Later Rally Brinss Effective Galas to Many 01 tno Industrials. NEW TORK. May 2. The. -character of th selling -which met the opening advance in prices today carried a sufficient warning .that the stocks which were taken yesterday morn ing to check the demoralization In the mar ket "were being, disposed of" again. It seemed -quite evident that the high opening had been" helped for the purpose pf "maklsg - better market for disposing of these stocks. This Is strictly In accordance with the normal courss Of the- market movement afUr'tflch an episode of Saturday's violent break with the sup porting tactics of Monday. The appearanco of this class of selling somewhat dampened the speculative enthusiasm induced by "yes terday's coBsIderable advance In. prices. Even the conspicuous advances la special stocks later in the dajr did not serve entirely-to; re store confidence id the stability ot the mr ket. Nevertheless quits a long list of ef fective galas were shown as a result of the day's business and. among the. Industrials especially the strong points were Buaaerous and diversified. The adr&axes late In the day were the re sult of s. stirring anew of the rumors of deals which hava almost dropped out of sight- In the demoralization of sentiment for the past week. The revival of talk of the leaeo of th Louisville fc Nashville to the Atlantic Coast Line on a' dividend guarantte was especially effective. The action 4ot the Chi cago Nbrthwestern directors vtowards a 15 per cent stock increase set afloat again va rious rumors regarding the railroad adjust- meat to be Worked oat in the Northwest. That slock llseif "had an lmmtsec influence on the Vanderbllt group besides. No detailed information was given as lo the ends . pro posed with ihe proceeds, o- the- new Jssue. but speculative hentlment 'indulged in free conjecture .along the lines that suited beat sthe prevailing mood. The sew stock is parr of an Increase authorized by the stockholders fully three years ago to be Issued from time to time In the discretion of th'e directors. Plenty of rumors were current also ot the distribution of Northern Securities assets In a manner to adjust all the differences in that territory. Cleralng-bouK exchanges rose to figures near the record. level, and this had some influ ence on the supposition that some large trans action in financial affairs was in course of completion. The lead .and smelting merger talk had some revival in the natural course of things. Consolidated Gas suffered from the threatened opposing legislation at Albany ana other New York public utilities were some what affected In sympathy. The weakness at this point had some effect In ' aggravaHng tie arly reaction. Its Influence passed away with the later developments, but was renewed at the last. The weekly crop summary was re garded as xatlsfiustory In Its showing for the Winter wheat crop. March net earnings pf railroads made a further favorable exhibit, especially that for the Pennsylvania system. The softness of the market when it was sought to take profits on the day's rise In dicated Its limitations and the Irregular clos ing showed the day's changes maintained.
