The demand from'Burope is reported to be slack at the present time and no new ton nage engagements arc announced. Late re ports oa foreign crop conditions are given fn Broomhall'a Corn Trade News of August 22 ae follow: United Kingdom The weather experienced during the paot seven days has been rather storray and lse favorable for harvest work, but there are few complaints. The harvest ing of the grain crops has made good prog rens. new wheat Is In good supply through out the southern and midland districts of England, and Is beginning to appear even as far north a Berwick. There Is some com plaint of disappointing threshing returns, but. on the whole, our new wheat crop ap pears to equal expectations and the samples Kite satisfaction. The barley crop has been Improved by recent rains, and reporters are aleo inclined to spak rather more favor ably of the oats crops. The roots have like wise improved. . Russia Onr latest advices from the south west report that threshing results are below expectations for wheat and barley, while the -"rn crop has been destroyed by fierce heat juet when the eons were forming. The Crimea confirms former, favorable crop re ports, while local news from the East and Northeast 1 rather more favorable, espe cially as regards fodder. There was sub stantial Increase In wheat shipments last week and barley quantities arc well main tained. India There is so far no word that the disastrous drouth over wide areas In the Punjaiib. United Provinces and elsewhere has been effectively broken. This drouth affects the Autumn harvest of native food grains, such ac gram, millet, etc., which crops play sooh a large part In providing food for India's teeming millions. Wheat seeding is due to commence In September and may be continued till December. Australia Mall advices continue to describe crop prospects as very favorable. Argentina Cable advices received in Liver pool again report locusts In Santa Fe. Our own cable of last Friday reported favorable neather conditions and an excellent wheat plant In the North. France Unfavorable reports of the harvest continue to be received frera the north of France, but south of Paris growers appear to t.e fairly well satisfied. So far there has not been much trading In the new crop, ex cept In the center. The weather has hin dered the work of Ingathering In some parts and In others it has been slow and difficult owing to lodging, while labor troubles have also caused hindrance. " , SOAKING RAIN' NEEDED. I-nte Crops Are Suffering From Prolonged Drouth. The Oregon weekly crop report says In part: No preeJpUntion of consequence occurred throughout the state during the last week and all late crops, with the exception of oom and hops, are in need of a good soaking rain. Light frost occurred Thursday morning .on sort- of the bottom lands in Southern Ore gon, but no damage resulted therefrom. Threshlnc Is nractlcallv mmnUtAi in ern Oregon, while east of the Cascade Moun tains tht work continues under favorable circumstances The yield of both wheat and barley continues good in the Columbia and the Grand Ronde Valleys, but In the "Wil lamette Valley and Southern Oregon the grain yields were generally below the aver age Hops made satisfactory advancement and the crop Is about ready for harvesting; pick ing win ueowino general ny the first of next week The vines are free of vermin and It Is fxpected the quality will be good. Corn Is doing nicely and a large crop is promised Field onions are being pulled. Late potatoes and gardens are doing poorly owing to lack of rain. Pears and prunes are ripe and being gath ered Pears are abundant, but prunes will average about half of a full orop. Apples are small In sire, and In well-kept orchards an average crop will be harvested. Stock on the ranges continues In fairly good condition. In the dairy districts cattle are losing flesh and there Is a marked fall ing off In the milk supply. PLENTY OF FRUIT -OX I LAND. Grapes Drag on the Market Cantaloupes the Only Scarce Article. Front street was heavily stocked with most kinds of fruit yesterday, but while the de mand was good. It was not strong enough to prevent an accumulation. Grapes were la particularly large supply and blacks sold as low as SO cents a box. In other lines, how ever, prices were well sustained. Peaches ranged from 50 cents for small stook to 85 and 00 cents for fancy. The only scarcity In fresh fruit was In cantaloupes, Oregons readily bringing $1.50. A half-car of Med ford. cantaloupes will be on hand today and will strike a fine market. Oranges and lem ons are very firm. No Valencia oranges were quoted under $5. LARGE RECEIPTS OF EASTERN BUTTER. Two Carloads a Week Reach Portland Cheese Is Higher. Eastern butter Is coming to this section freely, abput two carloads arriving Mrii week owing to pie light output of the stated creameries, prices show no change. Cheese was advanced to 14 cents-yesterday. Eggs were active .and firm at last week's prlce. Poultry receipts were moderate, but a good supply had been carried over and the mar ket was. overstocked as the demand was 'vera light Outlook for Potatoes. The potato situation has. changed but llt- tie," says Orange judd Farmer. "jCompara tlvely little blight la reported from Michigan, hut many advices from that state say Indi cations do not favor as heavy a yield to the s-cre as was secured last year. There is still time for unfavorable developments to the crop, to set In. Report from the Greeley district of Colorado say the yield cannot equal that of last season. Tubers are de veloping rapidly In the Empire State. Be ports from various counties are uneven. Out look in Maine Is a little better, although Irreparable damage was done during the dry spell, this making the outlook for DO to 75 per cent yield, as oompared with IDOi." Decline in Mill Fd. A general decline In mlllfeed was an nounced xsterday, bran (new) being quoted at $18 and shorts at $19. This lower price is la accordance with the gradual reduction In wheat values.

Cash prices for alt cereal were steady, with choice grades in limited rupnty and firmly held. Grapes and peaches accumulated largely ever Sunday and with receipts liberal today, these fruits were decidedly weak. Several carloads ef mountain peaches, besides two from South ern Oregon, arrived and shippers wul hardly make a profit la such an overstocked market.

Short Contracts on Large Scale. V DAY'S NEWS IS FAVORABLE Unparalleled Movement of Merchan dlserOver Railroad Iilncs Ex cellent Condition of Corn nnd Cotton Crops. NEW YORK. Sept. 5. There was a sharp rebound in prices of stocks today from the acute depression of last week. The demand from the short Interests, which had been largely extended in tho ceferse ef last week's aggressive bear campaign, was credited with a large part ef the buying. The evident fact that the market had recovered Its resisting power discouraged further attacks by the bear party and they were inclined to cover their short "contracts on a large scale The mar ket gave every appearance of Improvement as a result of the clearing out ef weak ae counts in the course of last week's liquida tion. Tepheavy speculative accounts were eliminated to a large extent and vulnerable pooin had paid the penalty for their Injudi cious commitments. The foreign mark etc took a favorable view et American securities and the advance in prices effected abroad yesterday during the holiday here. was. a potent faeter In driving the bears to cover. As prices did net rise above the London level at once, there was a .profit la buying stocks for London account oa the arbitrage operations against rales mado at the higher level there beforehand. A large part ef the early demand here was attributed to this London buying. , The favorable character of the day news helped to restore the confidence which was shaken while prices were falling last week. Railroad traffic officials. In speaking of busi ness and prospectn, were driven to the ute of superlatives. The movement of general merchandise ever the railroad lines Is pronounced unparalleled. Shlnraenta of the smaller grains are growing In volume and officials professed discourage ment ever the prospect of getting this move ment cleared before the new corn begins to come forward In large volume. Shlppem are protesting against the lack of adequate facili ties en the part of the roads and complaints of car shortage come from alt quarters. The Interruption by yellow fever embargoes makes skm exeeptlen amongst the Southern rail roads, but otherwise the chorus of complaints of congested traffic Is practically uaaalraeu. The weekly bulletin et the Weather Bureau spoke with unusual absence of reserve ef the excellent condition and the rapid advance of the corn crop. Even the cotton crop added Its Influence to the aide of Improvement by reaxw of the reported condition of August 2fi Issued by the Agricultural Department. White showing some further -deterioration from the July percentage, the figures were mueh better than was anticipated In the trade that heavy unloading of cotton and a slump In the price ef that commodity followed. The near party in ' clocks was eecideaiy upset by these various developments During Uia first hour ef the market, their buying was en an enormous scale, a large proportion ef the day's total business being concluded within that period. Prices held stubbornly for some time after the abatement of the principal de mand. Bat late In the day the market showed the effect ef the satisfaction of the demand of the shorts and prices sagged away again. There was nothing In the money rate to prohibit speculative activity, but the outlook In that market continues the subject ef grave consideration. The low condition of bank re served and the exceeding activity In all lines of business promise clearly the necessity for additional liquidation of credits to supply the new requirements. Hopes of an active re newal of sufficient demand for the crops to cakfe a profitable advance In prices are thus discouraged and speculative enthuelasm there for kept In check. Prices rallied, however, from the afternoon depression, and the market closed firJL Bonds were strong. Total sales, par value. $3,524,000. United States bends were all un changed en call.

Tho weekly crop bulletin of the Weather Bureau says: Temperatures were favorable for the ma turing of crops In nearly all districts east of tne Rocky Mountains during the week ending September 4. Scattered light frosts, causing slight damage occurred In the central and northern Rocky Mountain dis trict during the latter part of the week. Pactions of Kansas and the 'North Pacific Coast continue to need rain. On the North Pacific Coast high winds caused injury to standing Spring- wheat In " Washington, but otherwise the weather was favorable for harvesting and threshing. A very poor apple crop Is Indicated In all the apple producing states. In portions of Kansas the soil Is too dry for plowing, but elsewhere this work, has made excellent progress. EXPORTS OF RUSSIA Big Wheat iMovement Despite Crop Failure Talk. CAUSES SLUMP AT CHICAGO JReactlon In Grain Pit Aided by De clines in Northwestern Markets. General Selling by the Cash Houses. CHICAGO, Sept. 5. Weakneea developed In the wheat pit during the first hour of trad ing today. At the start sentiment was a trifle bullish as a result of the firm cables. Initial quotations on December were a shade lower to HSUc higher at SlHSPJic On fair demand from commission-houses, Decem ber touched BlftgSlTic A reaction, however, soon set In, resulting In a decline of over Hcent a bushel. Selling by cash houses. Influenced by liberal receipts at Minneapolis, was a feature. Arrivals of wheat today at Minneapolis were 833 cars, compared with 650 a year ago. Another factor, apparently -overlooked earlier In the day, was the large ex ports of wheat from Russia shown In the world's shipments. Notwithstanding numerous reports of crop failures In Russia, shipments from that country during the preceding week were. 4.320,000 bushels out of a total move ment of 9,364,000 bushels. The market was further depressed by an Increase of 1.416.O0O bushels In the amount of breadstufle on ocean p&a&ge. Near the close, a decline of about a cent in the price of cash wheat at Minne apolis caused additional selling of option months here. For December the lowest point was reached at SlffSlKc The market c!od weak with December at 81Hc. a. loss of fS Uc Heavy accumulations of corn since Satur day bad a weakening effect on the corn mar ket. Another factor wan the moderate de cline In the price of corn at Liverpool. ' De cember closed ftfrft; lower at 43Vi43c A report that shipments of oats from Rus sia would be small, owing to damage to the crop, had a steadying effect on the oats mar ket. December closed unchanged at 26c. Provisions suffered a decided slump as a result of persistent liquidation, due to a 10c decline In the price of live hogs. Selling of September pork wca a feature.
