THE HORNING OREOONIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1906. IS PIE FRUITS GONE Stocks on Pacific Coast Are Practically Exhausted.. ADVANCES IN QUOTATIONS No Dried Apples to Be .Had From First Hands In Oregon or Cali fornia Fancy Walnuts Are Also Cleaned Up. CANNED GOODS Advances in gallon' pie fruits. t HAT Local market overstocked 4 and lower. . - I UAib i-astern offered below ore son, - BARLEY Dealers believe top is reached. BUTTER California shipments may begin soon. EGGSrr-Wealc and declining. FRUIT Oriental orders for apples cannot be filled. HOPS Good attendance promised at growers meeting:. The feature o the grocery trade at the moment Is the extremely firm position of canned and dried fruits. Stocks of plo fruits of all kinds are practically exhausted on the Coast and advances have been steady. Gal lon plums were quoted yesterday at $2.75 In the San Francisco wholesale market and gallon plums "were held at $3. No dried apples are to be had in the San Francisco market and none are offering from Oregon. AIL lines of cured fruits are strong ly maintained. There is not much specu lative business passing, as supplies are In such srriall compass. All fancy walnuts have been cleaned up on the Coast, with none at all left in first hands. The circular of a leading New Orleans rice Arm says. "The month opens with good Inquiry from ,b?th local and "out-of-town buyers. Assortments arc In fairly good shape, although lower grades are. sparingly offered. The bulk of business done is on good to fancy sorts, -which are relatively cheaper than the lower grades. Prices are firm on these latter, and also on fancy heads. On good to choice styles there is a wider range according to quality. Japans are steady, both as to demand and values. Advices from the South note improved dis tributing demand on the Atlantic Coast. At New Orleans the market Is firm. De mand is only fair, although the sales for the week are fully up to average for the season. Receipts aro light, and city mills generally can only run as they eecure rough rice from day to day. This gives .an .un certain and restricted supply. In the Inter ior Southwest Louisiana and Texas there Is but little change to report. Movement Is curtailed by the closing of mills, and bulk of business accomplished reduces the small stocks of cleaned on hand. Cables from abroad note firm markets both for cargoes una cleaned spot and forward." Of the tea situation, & Shanghai trade circular of January IS says: "Black teas Glnco laTBt advice about l4,0CX hair-chests have beeneold, mostly to jiatire buyea-for. Shipment toNorth China. Prices have de clined .about S taels. Stock remaining con sists of 5560 half-chests. Green teas Wen chow and country lea The market is closed with only a few hundred local packs in etock. Plnsueys Since our last circular ar rivals have been 4000 half-chests, consist ing of 'good' to 'fine teas, all of which have been cleared. Stock consists of com mon teas that would not pass United States inspection. The market is now closed." GOOD ATTENDANCE PROMISED. Many II op growers Expected at the 3Ieetlag in This CJty Wednesday. A good attendance at the hopgrowers meeting In this city Wednesday afternoon Is promised. Mr. Durst has received a number of letters in response to the call sent -out and It is likely that other important mat ters, aside from the consignment proposi tion, will be considered. The hop market was rather quiet yester day, not from any lack of. orders, but rather because of the unwillingness of growers to part with their goods. The Horst Com pany, who bought heavily last week, is re ported to have made a few purchases yes terday, but it ws said their price limit In this state was reduced.. It was also learned that they were making -offers In the Cali fornia market. Charles Llveslcy, the Salem agent of the Company, who bought a block of 1000 bales from Joseph Harris, was in town yesterday Inspecting the hops. Since selling. Harris has taken on a number of other lots, two of his purchases being made yesterday, one at 9 cents and the other a lot of olds at '6 cents. A number of transac tions between local dealers were also re ported yesterday. According to the New Tork Journal of Commerce, only 15,000 bales of merchant able hops remain unsold In New York State, of which 5000 are In Schoharie County, 5000 in Madison and Oneida Counties, 2500 In Otsego County and 2500 scattered. Stocks in Washington are reduced to about 4000 bales and In California to about 20.000 "bales. The unsold supply In Oregon Is estimated, any where from 10,000 to 17.000 bales, 12,000 be ing the figure accepted by most dealers. The latest issue of the Kentish Observer contains the following reports on the English trade: From Manger & Henley, London. The tone of our market has been of a quiet character during the past -week, the elections being In a measuro accountable for this. Prices re main firm and without alteration. From W. H. & H. LeMay, London. The trade passing is of a retail character, small parcels are being taken day by day for con sumption. Prices are firm at recent quota tions. From J. H. Merldlth & Co., Worcester. A fair amount of business Is. being done for the time of year, and values are well main tained. Choice samples have been almost cleared out of first hands and transactions arc principally In the healthy medium quail, ties. Last week 32 pockets of growers' hops were weighed at the public scales. BUTTER MARKET FIRM. Bui Time Is Approaching for Shipments of California Make. The butter market was in very good shape yesterday. Supplies on Front street were not large and a first-class demand gave the market a much stronger tone. Some retail ers "who have been getting their stocks on the street were forced to draw on the city creameries. No butter is coming In from coast points, owing to the failure of steam ers to connect. Receipts of second-grade butter are also light and this likewise helps the situation. Some of the city creameries are offering their best mako at 30 cents, but others who maintain the higher price believe they are Justified in doing so by rea Bon of their depleted stocks and also be cause of the firmness of Front street. This encouraging state of affairs, however, may not last long, as it Is understood that Cali fornia butter is being, figured upon and may soon be here to compete with the local ar ticle. The egg Bsarket yesterday was weak and dull. Receipts were large for a Monday and promise to be much heavier today. No more shipments are being made on Atatka ac count and the local trade must now take care of what comes In. Under the circum stances a falling market must bo expected. Dealers yesterday quoted 22 and 23 cent. There were light receipts, of chickens, which were quickly taken up at full prices. and everything points to a strong demand for the week. Thirty dozen rabbits "were received yester day from the big drive on Blalock Island. They sold for $L50 a dozen. Oriental Inquiries fer Apples. Inquiries have been received from the Orient for Oregon apples, but owing to the lateness of the season, desirable qualities cannot be found in sufficient quantities to fill the orders. Yesterday's fruit and vegetable receipts consisted of one car each of oranges, lemons and sweet potatoes and a mixed car of cab bage and cauliflower. Three cars of bananas were due. but will not arrive before tonight at the earliest HAY TOO PLENTIFUL. la Absence ef Much Demasd, Prices Are Weak asd Lower. There is tod much hay In the local mar ket, according to large dealers. Not only Is the supply heavy, but offerings are large and the demand restricted. Values are there fore very easy and lower than a week ago. There is not much movement in barley, but' former prices are stiffly maintained, though in the trade It is believed that the top has been reached. - Oregon oats remain at pre1oua prices, though Eattern oate are coming in and can bo laid down here in bulk at $25.50. but the superior quality of the Oregon cereal en ables a premium to be realised on it-.

Several Cars or Oregon Potatoes and Onions Reach Bay Cltr Market. Orange Sale Postponed. SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 12. (Special.) With Eastern markets closed, local wheat speculators were thrown on their own re sources and trade became dull. The Slay option declined to $l-31i on scattering showers which have Improved crop pros pects. but hid a small recovery in the aft ernoon. Cash wheat was easy. Barley was weak all day for spot and futures- oa the good, crop outlook and larger receipts. Other cereals were easy and quiet. Several cars of Oregon potatoes and onions arrived upon a market overloaded with com mon and poor grades which are hard to sell evea at sharp concessions. There was a lim ited demand for fancy onions at $1 and ex tra. B urban k potatoes at $1.10 with occasion al small sales of the latter at $1.15. River potatoes were greatly depressed, most sales being at 50 to 65 cents per sack. Asparagus was easier at 15 to 20 cents. Green peas from the South are in heavy sup ply with 3 to 3 cents the ruling prices. The orange auction sale was postponed be cause of lack of available stock and unsat isfactory prices at the last sale In the open market this fruit was steadier on the news that rain in the South has checked picking and prospects of light receipts here this week. The present supply Is ample, chiefly choice and fancy navels. Standards are scarce and" Ann. Fresh extra butter is 3-cent higher, but the market generally Is weak.

WINGED M'S ELECTION. Club "Will Vole for Directors and on Purchase of Iand. Tho Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club .will hold Its annual election of officers this evening- at S o'clock, when a new board of directors will be chosen. The board chosen tonight will hold a meeting In a few days and elect officers for the year. The finances of the club arc In excellent condition at present, and the proposal to purchase the adjoining 'plot of ground on the south of the club will be voted on this evening. Although the club at the present time is in debt to the amount of J37.CC0. it Is rjelieYed-thatHhrcuiciatge.of- thj:r pjece of ground will enable the organization to pay off its indebtedness more rapidly, and lit the same time enlarge Its field and track. The price asked by the present owners of the tract Is considered very reasonable, as the club can dispose of a portion of the new territory for almost the purchaso price It will be required to pay. By sell ing a. portion of the "Chinese gardens" the club will not only realize splendidly on the deal, but will be able to 'enlarge its athletic field to an extent that it will accommodate professional baseball, cir cuses and other outdoor attractions likely to give large returns In the way of rev enue, as well as benefiting the athletic department of the club. This side of the question Is that of the advocates of tho deal, but tho matter has its opponents as well. Thero are several of the conserva tive members of the club who are averse to placing the organization further in debt, and the result of tonight's meeting is looked forward- to with considerable interest by local clubdom. Treasurer Arthur O. Jones, of the Mult nomah Club, will file his report of the financial condition of the organization, and his accounts will show the club- to bo In the most flourishing condition. During the past year the club's Indebtedness was reduced more than $5020. Treasurer Jones will probably be re-elected to the same office, while In the cases of President Chapln and Secretary Robb, it Is not known whether they will stand; for re nomination.

ALL COMPETITORS QUIT Lancia's Speed Throws Out Partner, "Whoso Arm Is Broken Cedrino and Ills Machinist Also Suffer Injury. rIAVANA, Feb. 12. Victor Demogeot, the winner at Ormond, Fla,, of the title of the world's speed king, earned another triumph today by winning the Cuban cup In the second International road race. The victory was gained In the same ma chine which won the two great road events of last year namely, the Ardennes circuit In France and the vandcrbllt cup race an. Loos Island. It was the- lightest machine In today's race, being only SO horsepower, the others being, respective ly, SO to 110. Although three of his competitors In to day'g main race were cither stopped by accident or failed to tlnlsh within the time limit, Demogeot's speed was good throughout and maintained the reputation of the Cuban road as being among the world's fastest. Despite the drawbacks of three controls, sharp corners In the town of Mariano and close crowding by the excited populace at the curving point, he made in the first half an aver age of 61 4-5 miles an hour. The average miles per hour for the entire 217 mires was 59.77, which Is within 1ft miles of the Vanderbllt cup race average. 1 Iiancla Throws Out Partner. Lancia made the most sensational speed of the day,$olng so fast that his riding partner Battesta was thrown out and suf fered a fractured arm. Lancia then quit the race and conveyed a pbyslelan to the aid of the Injured man. Cedrino was overturned near Artmesa and Injured internally. His machinist also waa hurt. Bernin. the driver of the only other car which returned to the starting point near Camp Columbia, failed to complete tho round trip within the time limit. For the second half of the race Demo geot's competitors were three local men. Demogeot said he would have to push matters. However, he lost several min utes at the start, and thereafter drove at a speed which enabled him to pass the only one of his local competitors who had gotten ahead of him. Throughout the re mainder of the last half Demogeot's speed nearly equaled that of the first half. The fact that Charlie Harragh, an American, rode with Demogeot heightened the local Interest and Intensified the welcome which greeted him when he rounded the curve. Another Frenchman Wins. Tho winner of the minor race, which was only half the distance of the main event was Des Sanssois, a Frenchman, who . drovo a SO-horsepower automobile over the 10S"4 mile? In 12 minutes slower time than Demogeot. Des Sanssois beat Kirk, hla nearest competitor, by nearly 10 minutes. Bllck. the other contestant, finished half an hour later. Both the winning Frenchmen were es corted - before the grandstand near the box of President Palma and hla family, and showered, with congratulations. There will be short races tomorrow. Sum maries: Main event, 21V miles Demogeot, SO horsepower, won; time, 353:15 3-5. Bernin,. SO horsepower, did not finish the first half within the time limit. Lancia, 110 horse power, and Cedrino, 100 horsepower, did not finish the first lap on account of ac cidents. Minor race, 106 miles Des Sanssois, SO horsepower, won; time, 2:01:32.
