Never Stronger.
VIEWS OF FRANK L.DEMING
Columbia River and Soekeye Prices
Will Be Above Last Season's
Basis Clean-Up More Com
plete Than Ever Before.
CANNED GOODS Salmon market
stronger than ever In history of trade.
FUHS Proppects bright lor good
prices this year.
POULTRY Shipping orders prevent
decline In prices.
EGOS Steady at present prices.
BUTTER Good -demand for best
grades.
GROCERIES Package coffee Is
higher.
VEGETABLES Steamer produce
early on the street.
That the canned salmon situation in this
country la an unprecedcntdly strong one la
the opinion of Frank IL Doming, of Chicago,
who, 1n a public statement, declares that the
outlook Is the most encouraging In year.
"The Columbia River packers are getting a
better price for their salmon In light pickle
t: an ever before In the history of the busi
ness," said he, "and there seems to be no
limit to the demand, which comes altogether
from Europe. It does not look, therefore, at
all favorable to lower prices on tho canned
product of the Columbia River in 1&0G." Con
tinuing, Mr. Doming said:
"I have been In business a good many
years and never av .mythlng Iik the clean
up of salmon there Is at the present ime cn
the Coat:. We haven't a single case of tall
or flat cohoes, and lsss than 1000 cases of
cohoe halves, not a can of chums and not a
can of pinks of -Jiy size. You can ionn a
pretty clear Idea of tiw oondulons existing In
thefic grades.
"There Is a little block of pinks and chums
held in Seattle at SOc for pinks and 7214c fcr
chums. These prices are' prohibitive, with Fed
Alaska at 85c per dozen and medium red at
SOc per dozen f. o. b. Coast. It Is rretty dif
ficult to get any Jobber io bolide that 50c per
dozen Is a fair price to pay fjr plr.ks. et
we fcold the last of October at 75c ftr pinks
f. o. b. awl chums at 7214c
"So far as red Alaska Is concerned we are
entirely out and' haven't a caw. "VVe a if. ready
to state that, in our opinion, the game until
new pack Is In, Is In the hands of the Alaska
Packers' Association. "We sold' the last of our
rod Alapkas at 614c f. o. b. Coast and are
confident we could get 00c f. o. b. for certain
brands If we had the goods to offer. I am
confident that the Alaska Packers' Association
has distributed Its rtocks and now has littii
or nothing on hand. This all spells out that
until new pack there Is little stock In the
hands of any one except sockeyes and a hand
ful of red Alaska.
"As to the price of 1906 cockeyes, we
havn't given the matter a thought, except
that they wi:i be liighrr than in 1005.- 1 am
ready to go on record to that effect right now.
The higher basis on sockeyes will be estab
lished regardless of what Columbia River
packers may do.
"There has been .a good deal of talk about
the packers on Puget Sound getting soekeye
salmon only once In four years. This Is "not
true. "Vo get a. big run once In four years
and lean rivers In the intervening three years.
It will be the policy of our company to
name a fair price. each year, based upon the
condition of suply snd demand. "Wo do not
need hatcheries to Insure a good1 run on the
Sound four years hence. The spawning
grounds were literally covered with spawn this
season, insuring a heavy run In 1909. The
Pacific-American Fisheries propose to put In
hatcheries on the American side for the pro
pagation of Chlnooks and Cohoes. as well as
cockeyes. The National Government has
also been asked for an appropriation, and we
havo every reason to tollevc the bill granting
it will be passed at this session of Congress.
Thus wc hope to get the benefit of artificial
propagation in 1910."
STEAMER GOODS ARRIVE EARLY.
shipments Are in Fine Shape, but Quantity
Is Not Large.
In spite of an occasional dull day in the
Iresh produce market, business on the whole
is remarkably good and has been so since the
holidays. With higher prices in many lines,
the demand has been considerably better than
it was In the two months Immediately follow
ing the closo of the Fair. All indications
point to a. trade In the Spring months that
will exceed any In the history of Front street.
Owing to the early arrival of the steamer,
tho California stuff was put on the street
before the close of businees. The assortment
was good And all the shipments were in ex
cellent shape. Very few beans arrived, and
tomato receipts were also light and conse
quently higher prices were quoted, $2.252.40
& crate. Peas sold at 12V415 cents, and
cauliflower at $2.35 a crate. A car of Call
fornla celery also arrived. Large oranges
are scarce, owing to the strong Chinese New
Year demand.
SHIPMENTS OF TOULTRY.
Outside Orders Prevent Local Market From
Declining.
The poultry market was again inclined to
ward weakness yesterday. Receipt were not
large, but buyers, were slow and some sales
or chickens were made at concessions from
formr prices. There was some shipping In
quiry an6 this prevented any accumulation.
Ducks and geese were In demand, the former
from the Chinese. Turkeys were slow sale.
Eggs held ftrady at the former prices,
27-4rj2S cents. Some dealers look for a fur
ther drop, but future prices will depend on
weather conditions.
The butter, market Is without change.
There Is a steady demand? for the best
brands and on these prices are easily main
tained, but other grades do 'not move -as
well. The cheese market Is quiet.
MARKET TOR FURS IS STRONG.
Treupccti for Coming Year Are EreR Better
Than Last Year's.
The annual review of a local Arm of fur
dealers says of market conditions:
The past season has proven the most suc
cessful in the history of the fur business. Pros
pects for the coming year are exceedingly
bright, in fact, it will prove a "corker." The
trapper will be found on the very pinnacle of
prosperity with little prospect of being Jolted
off. Get n and work bard.-Is our advice."
Fashion favors some fur more than others,
and on these the' prices will be higher, but
there arc but few furs on the list that will
be neglected, and good prices, prevail on nearly
everything.
The big demand for mink compels us to
make extraordinary preparation few the com
ing season. Wc need all the skunk we can
buy. Otter is in demand. The high -prices ff
Jt e-MusM will sot be nwhtd, Vut seed, sat
isfactory returns are guaranteed. Beaver con
tinues rather irregular. Mutkrat "will be In
good demand this season. Foxe are not so
much in demand as they were a few years
ago, but we do -predict a. strong demand for
white foxes.l Coyotes have done quite poorly
the past season, and there is but little en
couragement for an advance at. present. Lynx
will hardly advance as high as last year, al
though the demand will be fair. Clvlt cat are.
selling well, but hardly as strong as. for the
past few years.
White weasel are selling at good prices.
Wild cat are not so much In demand ex
cept for tho Alaska trade. Badger, which are
heavily furred, are In good demand. Tho
coarse skins are of very little value. Bear are,
of course. dulL Marten will be a great fac
tor In this year's selling. Fine 'dark skins
will obtain top notch prices. Fisher will bj
in demand this year, and wc arc certain
that last year's prices will be equaled.
Grocery and OH Note.
Predictions are made of advances all along
the line in staple groceries In the early Spring.
Eastern package coffees went up 4 cent
a pound yesterday.
Tomatoes are exceedingly firm with advances
noted in 214s and gallons.
The prune market is strong with an upward
tendency.
Linseed oil Is higher, raw In cases now be
ing quoted at C2 cents and boiled in cases at
64 cents.

MORE MONEY NOW
Immense Speculative Move
ment in New York Stocks.
ADVANCE AGAIN UNDER WAY
Reading Mbst Conspicuous .Feature
of Day's Market Amalgamated
Jtccovcrs Previous Day's
Loss Anaconda Bulges.
NEW YORK, Jan. 19. The market showed
more breadth and variety' today than at any
time during the current speculation. The, ag
gregate dealings fell short of what would b
supposed from the constant activity of tho
dealings, owing to the fact that there was
less congestion In 'the great market leaders
than Is the case on some occasions of great
speculative animation. A very large num
ber of separate issues which go to make up
tho total of today's dealings are dealt in small
lots and show lcs Inertia than the great
railroad and industrial corporations of which
the floating supply necessitates enormous
transactions before any Impression is made
on prices.
A number of the prominent standard stocks
made conspicnous movements, however, dur
ing the day and the whole level of me mar
ket was lifted pretty uniformly. There were
somo laggards In the movement and the vo
latile upshoots at other points varied widely
from the average movement. But the com
prehensive advancing tendency was conspic
uous. Points of strength constantly devel
oped without any regard to the realizing in
progress at other points which caused some
irregularity in the price movement at differ
ent times.
There was little news to acconnt for the
action of the market, but it was broadly
based on tho heavy increase in the money
market supplies by reason of the great ac
cumulation of cash resources at New Tork
now In progress. The preliminary estimate of
the week's currency movement gave promise
that tomorrow's bank statement will dlsclo
a cash gain which will compare favorably with
last week great increase. Sub-Treasury op
erations alone have yielded to the banks up
ward of $7,000,OiX). Estimate ef the move
ment to and from the Interior are more clas
tic but the statements furnished by the
banks themselves Indicate that, after allow
ing for the shipment of $1,000,000 In gold to
Mexico, the movement to New York on bal
ance will bring the week's gain In cash np
to anywhere from $S.OOO,000 to $11.00O.OX.
This estimate covers the operations, up to
Thursday night only and these for another
day. both on Sub-Tresrury operations and on
the rxprej movement, will figure In the
week's bank statement.
The discount rate In London ylolded a
fraction today and the further rise In sterling
exchange at continental points marked the
further relaxation of the condition at Lon
don. This development seemed to relieve ap
prehension of any urgent pressure on New
York from foreign sources. The moderate
firmness in the foreign exchange market here
strengthened this probability.
The roost conspicuous feature In today's
market was Reading, which responded vio
lently to a resumption of operations by the
pool In that stock which conducted it pre
vious brilliant advance, which was widely
exceeded by todsy's spurt. The Jump In Ana
conda was accompanied by rumor of the
practical cornering of the stock by interests
affiliated with the present controlling Inter-
ck. Amalgamated Copper made a brlik re
covery from the late drop yesterday, whkh
was alleged to be due to dl'MppOlntroeat over
the amount of the Increaie In the dividend
rate. The further decline in the quotation for
the metal on the cupper exchange and the
sharp drop in the London copper market did
not affect the recovery In Amalgamated Cop
per. The demand became furiously active af
ter profit-taking of the final hour, and the
closing tone was extremely buoyant at the
top IcveL
