E
Eastern Oregon Woolgrowers
Are Suspicious.
THINK BUYERS ARE IN DEAL
Believe Prices Should Equal Those
of Last Year Dealers' Explana
tion of Lower Values May
Postpone Shaniko Sale.
This ia the day set for the Ms wool eale
at Shaniko, where about 5,000,000 pounds
are stored and awaiting: buyers. It Is
thought by Portland woolmen, however, that
the sale may have to be postponed, owing to
the fresh washouts on the O. It. & N., which
may prevent the attendance of buyers. The
sale, when It comes off, will be the most
important In the state, not only because of
the large amount of wool to be offered, but
also owing to the fine quality of the wools
of that section of the state.
An opinion seems to prevail among many
growers east of the mountains that a com
bine has been formed among buyers to force
down prices, this year. Quotations are cer
tainly lower than they were at the close of
last season, but buyers explain this by the
statement that 1005 prices were too high and
that most of the merchants who bought then
lost heavily on the transactions. It Is also
eaid that the gools trade declines to buy wool
from dealers at prices that will show a profit
to the latter on the basis of "Western grow
ers' views. The assertion Is likewise made
that the wools of the West are this year
Inferior to those of a year ago.
The opinion that prevails among growers
in the Ettstern counties of the btate Is voiced
by the Antelope Herald, which ays:
Buyers are offering 18 and 20 cents this
year for wool that, brought L'O ani 24 cents
last season. Growers refused to accept, de
ciding to hold indeilnftely. This decision is
having a tendency to soften the buyers some
what, though little wool has been sold so
far, and tn one or two Instances, we under
stand, the sales dates have been cancelled. It
is suggested, however, that the money mar
ket might have caused the action of the wool
buyrs. The San Francisco disaster and the
threatened coal, strike might, it is claimed,
account for some ttnanclal stringency which
would make money tight and interest high,
and the buyers, who are heavy burrowers at
this time, could not purchase large quanti
ties at high figures. We believe, however,
that this Is not the real reason for the low
figures offered for wool. Money is becoming
"easy" again, and the probabll ity is that
the buyers will be offering fair prices, espe
cially if the growers Btand together and re
fuse the low bids. Furthermore, there are
three other excellent reasons why wool should
command a higher price this year than last:
The world is short on wool; the supply in the
United States was never ss low as it is this
year, and it is claimed wool will have to
be Imported' to meet the demand; and, lastly,
prices are rising in Kurope. Consequently, If
the growers hold together they can com
mand a aoodi price. At all events, the sys
tem of regular sales days will be given a
practical test.
The Long Creek Ranger says on the sub
ject: In spite of the fact that there Is a short
age in wool this year and contrary to the
reports of wool prices that were circulated
throughout this part of the state two weeks
ago the prices paid at Pendleton last week
were below the prices paid a year ao. It is
rumored by the papers throughout this sec
tion that there Is a combine formed among
the woolbuyers to keep the price down.
The buyers state that the wool Is not prop
erly cut and Is of an Inferior grade. It was
thought that a sale day would be of advan
tage over the private sale plan, but the ad
vantage seems to be all in favor of the buyer.
The price that George Radtr received,
cents, represents the average price, which
Is 3 cents less than last year. Cm account
of the low price a large quantity of wool
remains unsold in the warehouse at Tendle
ton. Much Interet is felt In the trade as to
the outcome of the Lewiston pool. The grow
ers in that section have rejected all offers at
private sale and will dispose of their clips,
about 1 ,000,000 pounds, at a sealed bid sale
on June 15.
WHEAT QUIET BUT STEADY.
California Crop Improved by Rain Weekly
Mlatlbtics.
The wheat market was quiet yesterday,
with very little California demand and not
much Inquiry elsewhere, but a very steady
undertone prevails, as the supply in the
' Northwest has become exceedingly small.
Borne dealers place the available stock at
about 1,000,000 bushels. Yesterday's advices
from Sen Francisco were that the California
crop had improved.
The Merchants' Exchange reports quantities
of wheat on passage as follows:

Cascara Bark Is Higher.
The market for Cascara bark Hhows im
provement after a long period of depression.
Stocks In the East axe well used up anl not
much is left here, except in the hands of
speculators. Inquiries have become numer
ous In the last few days, and the price has
advanced to 44Mi cents a pound. Peeling
will shortly begfo.
Strawberry Supply Short.
There Is a chance of more Hood River ber
riea coming here, as the new washouts on
the railroad may prevent shipments to the
East. Local berries were in limited sup
ply yesterday,' and were a shade higher. Apri
cots wers abundant and cheaper. Cherries
were also lower, some of the receipts being
in bad order. A car of green bananas ar
rived. The steamer brouht only a small sup

DEMAND- IS BETTER
But Market Does Not Invite
Outside Investors.
STOCKS MOVE UPWARD
St. Paul Holds a Prominent Place
in the Speculation Time Money
Is Easier Transfers From
San Francisco.
KEW YORK, June 4. There was come In
crease in the volume of dealings In today's
stock market over last week's dally average.
The dealings were more distributed among
different stocks also, giving the market an
appearance of greater breadth and variety.
Prices ruled higher than at the close of last
week, yet the movement dl4 not serve to con
vince sentiment, which remained uncertain
or skeptical. Commlfslon houses, complained
of an entire lack of ordera Operations were
pronounced to be in the hands of profes
sionals and the greatest part of the activity
to be confined within narrow limits in the
professional field itself.
St. Paul continues to hold a prominent
place in the market In the belief that sub
scription rights would accrue to stockholders
as a result of the plan for raising more cap
ital. Amalgamated Copper weakened rather
notably on the nrat appearance of the com
pany's annual report, but the character of
the buying of the stock on the decline drove
the shorts in it to cover. Colorado Fuel made
a further adavnee, accompanied by a variety
of gossip alleging Its early absorption, either
by the United States Steel Corporation or by
the Republic Steel Company.
There was. a decidedly easier tone in the
time money market, and this extended to
some of the periods carrying over the end of
the year, although rates for these periods
were still relatively firmer than tor the earlier
maturity loans. It was believed that the real
gain, in cash by the banks last week was
shofifh to only a small extent in the bank
statement. Further large transfers from San
Francisco were received, and more are ex
pected. At the same time, the easier tone
of money allowed exchange rates to harden
without inducing large offerings of bills in
that market, in spite of the closed foreign
markets. The cloning tone of the market
was quiet, with only a part of the stocks
maintained at the top level.
Bonds were steady; total sales,, par value,
ti,5S5,ouO. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

JACK TARS PROTEST
Sailors Dislike Being Jailed for
Roaming After Hours. v
MANY RECENT ARRESTS
Cause of Complaint of Members of
Crews of Pacific Squadron Who
Desire Same Conditions Pre- N
vailing at Other Ports.
The sailors and marines of Admiral
Goodrich's squadron have not the kind
liest ot feelings for the Portland police
department and the manner in which
the limbs of the law spread them
selves in the enforcement of the after
hours ordinance. The reason assigned
by the sailors for their dislike to Port
land methods is on account of the sev
eral arrests and detainments at the
police station of a number of the mem
bers of the crews of the Chicago and
Princeton, for being on the streets
after the hour of 1 A. M. '
The jackles are inclined to think
that Portland should prove itself up to
date by following the example of San
Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Ta
coma and San Diego, where as long as
he behaves himself and does not get
boisterous, he is permitted to be
abroad at any hour of the night.
From a sailor's standpoint the argu
ment seems reasonable, for the jack
tars are allowed so much shore leave
a month, and when allowed to tread
terra firma, it is only for a short period
extending from 4 o'clock in the after
noon to 7 o'clock in the morning,
which, according to the salts, hardly
permits of them getting the stiffness
out of their Joints if they are to be
compelled to seek seclusion at the
early Sfour of 1 o'clock.
A petty officer of the TJ. S. S. Chicago
in referring to the affair stated: "We
don't ask anything unreasonable, for
we are not dangerous characters that
should be herded Into patrol wagons
as isoon as the hour for closing saloons
arrives, and it is an injustice to us to
have the boys of the Navy thrown into
dirty dungeons as has been the case
quite frequently of late for simply
Vroamlngr the streets after 1 o'clock in
the morning. Most of us are not familiar
with the customs prevailing in Port
land for we are used to shore liberty
at San Francisco and Los Angeles, as
well as on Puget Sound, and in all the
ports as those places we are not inter
fered with for being on the streets
after a certain hour. At best we have
only a few hours to stay ashore and
the average sailor does not get enough
exercise In the short space of time
between the hours of 4 P. M. and 7 A.
M., which is the usual extent of a sail
or's leave. We would appeal to the
chief executive of the city if we
thought we could gain anything by so
doing. We do not wish anything un
just or unreasonable,- but we don't
think that the fact of a few of the
sailors of the navy walking the streets
after 1 o'clock in the morning is going
to harm the city to any great extent,
for we are conspicuous .enough in our
uniform's to preclude any officer mas
taking us for suspicious characters."
TIED VP BY STRIKERS. .
Steam Schooners I'nable to Run Out
of Bay City.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 4. The effort
to avert a strike which would tie up the
entire water front, members of the exec
utive committee of the City Front Feder
ation and the United Shipping and Trans
portation Association met in conference
today. "Whatever agreement, if any, is
reached, will be submitted for ratification
to the Sailors' Union.
Twenty steam schooners- are already
tied up in this port as a result of the
difficulty between the. schooners and the
Sailors Union. Fifty of this number
went out of commission Saturday even
ing. According to this statement, given
out by the United Shipping & Transport
tatlon Company, which comprises most of
the shipping firms of this port, the trou
ble resulted from the refusal of the As
sociation to grant an advance of $5a
month In wages.
At tonight's session of the Sailors'
Union several concessions made by the
steam schooner owners were submitted.
An answer will be given by the union to
morrow morning. The nature of the con
cessions has not been made public.
WILL BUILD NEW STEAMER
Machinery of Destroyed Regulator to
Be Placed in New Craft.
The St. Johns Shipbuilding Company
will shortly begin work on the con
struction of a new river steamer for
the Columbia & Cowlitz River Trans
portation Company, and when complet
ed the hull -will be equipped with the
engines of the recently destroyej
steamer Regulator, which was blown
up near St. Johns in a boiler explosion.
The new steamer will be built on
the lines of the George K. Wentworth,
and. like this craft, will be used for
towing purposes on the adjacent rivers.
The machinery of the Regulator is
practically unharmed, which was due
to the prompt response of the Portland
fireboat. The machinery was pur
chased from the D. P. & A. Co., the
owners of the Regulator, by the Co
lumbia & Cowlitz River Transportation
Company.
MA'Y DESERTIONS RECORDED
