THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 1906. 1& EXPECT RUN LATER Columbia River Salmon Can ners Not Discouraged. PACK TO DATE IS SMALL Less Than Half of Showing Made In Same Period of Shortest Year Heretofore De mand for Chums. CANNED SALMON Packers not discouraged by small run of fish. HOPS Growth of Oregon crop re tarded. WHEAT Quiet but firm. MILLSTUFFS Lower quotations named. . FRUIT Market well stocked with 11 varieties. . VEGETABLES Oregon hothouse tomatoes ready for market. BUTTER Good movement In city creamery. EGGS Firm and active. MEATS Pork and veal weaker. Although salmon are not running In the Lower Columbia, canners are not disturbed over the outlook, as they believe a good run of fish Is likely to start at any tljne. Opera tions up to date, however, have been any thing but successful, and some of the can neries have practically closed down until the salmon reappear. The total pack to date has been 1cm than half the showing made for the same period In the smallest year hereto fore. One large packer reports having put up only 1200 cases since the season opened, whereas he expected to have at least 5000 cases packed by this time. This state of affairs adds strength to an already .strong market. If any spot salmon could be found. It would undoubtedly command a premium by reason of the conditions exist ing; In the lower river. The backwardness of the run la attributed to the freshet and muddy state of the water. According to a circular Just Issued by a San Francisco firm, the strongest demand at present in the salmon market Is for chums. The circular says: "During the past few days we have re ceived probably 60 telegrams ' and 200 let ters on the subject of future chums, and we begin to think that the entire country has gone 'chum craiy." Considering that chums are the poorest and meanest salmon packed, wo are at a loss to understand the suddem Interest that Jobbers are taking In this ar ticle. "The writer has Just returned from a visit to the North, and all our people postively refuse to sell any future chums now, and to chow you Just what the situation Is. would mate that white In Portland we were offered 70c per doien for 800O cases of future chums and none of our packers would accept the offer. Just as soon as we are able -to offer any future chums we will advise you. In the meantime we want to call your atten tion to our circular of May a In this let ter we told you we' could offer chum talis at 70c, condition that buyers purchase equal quantity of sllversldce. "In all our experience we have never, seen the spot market on salmon of all grades as closely cleaned up. We can truthfully state that we control every can of spot pink salmon there Is on the Coast, and It Is now Impos sible to offer a can of this under 85c f. o. b. Seattle. There Is such a email quantity left that we are sure the Oriental market will take all we have to offer." OREGON HOPS BACKWARD. Too Much Rain Has Retarded the Growth . of the Crop. A well-known hopgrower and dealer, who spent Sunday In the Aurora section, stated yesterday that he was much disappointed by the appearance of the yards. He said: "I had been led to . expect that T" would find the hops In excellent condition. Instead of that, they plainly showed the effects of the cold rains of the last few weeks. No damage apparently has been done, but the growth has been retarded and the hops are certainly backward. A month ago, the growth was forward, but now the condition has been reversed. Should we have favorable weather now, everything will probably come out all right, hut if it continues to rain throughout June, It will be bad for the hops. Lice are numerous in the Aurora section, but they do no harm at this stage of the crop." CITY BUTTER MOVES WELL. Active Demand for Country Store Egg Market Is Firm. The market for city creamery butter Is In good condition. Te plants have a large turn, out, but the make is being disposed of satis factorily. There Is still a difference of 114 cents between, the prices of the several estab lishments, but this Is likely to be eliminated shortly. One creameryman reported yester day a slight decrease in his cream supply, while others could not complain of the volume of ths raw material. Country store butter was In active demand at last week's price. There is some talk of making shipments by rail until the strike is settled. The egg. market was very firm. A few deal ers reported full receipts, while others had none at all Indications point to a good demand for poultry when the market opens, WORKING OFF (SURPLUS. Lower Quotations Mads on Mlllfeed Oats Scarce and Firm. Prices on bran and shorts of city manufac ture are quoted lower, as millers are trying to work off their accumulation before the sea son Is much further advanced. This has also weakened the market for country millstuffs. Oats continue very strong, owing to their scarcity. Barley Is firmer In sympathy. The hay market Is quiet, but steady. Wheat dealers had but little to report yes terday. Trading was of small volume, but. "the market had a good undertone. FRESH TRODUCE PLENTIFUL. Front Street Has a Good Supply, but De mand la Not 1'rrsslng. , Front street was liberally stocked with most varieties of fruits and vegetables yesterday, but the unsettled weather was again an ad vene factor In trading. So far this month the volume of business has not equaled that done In May, whereas, with the larger and better assortment of supplies. It should have been heavier. Early California fruits were In good supply and In spite of slow sale prices held steady. A shipment of Climax, or Japanese, plums was received and brought the same price as Clyraans. 11.60 a box. Apricots and peaches were abundant- Many of the cherries on hand were poor. One crate of Coachella can taloupes, arrived and sold for 14.25. Straw berries brought an average of 11.75 on the street, though most sales at the Italian mar ket were at $1.60. A car of green bananas was received, also a car of oranges. Small to medium size navels are about played out. Lemons are In good supply, but very firm on Southern advices. A sample of fancy hothouse tomatoes was received from Oregon City, and regular ship ments will begin from there very soon. A lot of Mississippi tomatoes arrived' and of fered at $2.50 a box. Peas and beans were In light supply. A shipment of 20 boxes of fancy Marysville cucumbers was received and put on sale at $1.75. A mixed car of new potatoes and onions arrived and a straight car of Garnet Chiles was due last night; also a car of cabbage. Dressed Meats Weak. The market for dressed pork Is weak, with prospects for a decided slump unless receipts become smaller. Veal Is also arriving freely and prices are maintained with some diffi culty. . .

REPORTS NOT CONFIRMED Except Union Pacific and Amalga mated, Other Stocks Are Neg lectedTraders Interested in the Crop Report. NEW YORK. June 11. Price movements In today's dull and) narrow stock market were confined almost entirely to a mere handful of the actual speculative issues, 'particularly St. Paul. There has been a great deal of gossip recently regarding the financing of the company's proposed Pacific Coast exten sion. The "news" has been alternately good and bad. today's being of a favorable char acter, with hints of valuable "rights." Dili gent Inquiry failed to disclose any war rant for these reports. The tendency of the list was heavy In spite of the support given to St. Paul, Union Pacific anc) Amalgamated Copper by professional operators. The general disposition of the professional leaders tc reduce their committments pend ing the publication of the Government's monthly crop report was doubtless largely responsible for the smallness of the day's business. Interest in the report was unusu ally keen, particularly as to Winter and Spring wheat. Railway officials reported a general increase in tonnage, while the re ceipts of cereals at Chicago for the last week were greatly in excess of the same week last year. Reason tor the strength of copper shares was found In the report of the Amalgamated Copper Company's subsidiary concerns, which showed an increase in net earnings for the year ended June 1 of over $5,000,000. Of this sum, Anaconda conrtibuted about $3,500,000. The official crop conditions were posted in the last hour, and seemed sufficiently favor- tble to bring about a strong close, la addi tion, to St. Paul, which made a net gain of 3 points, Delaware & Hudson advanced 6 and Union Pacific 1. The local money outlook was reassuring, though foreign exchange was still high. Call loans were made below 3 per cent, though that figure was the prevailing rate of the day. Over-year money continued in strong demand 'and some long-time loans covering that period were made at 5 per cent on high class collateral. Further large transfers of currency were received at the sub-Treasury from San Francisco, and Washington advices indicated even larger returns from the Coast before the week's end. The foreign mar kets were without influence here, London be ing engrossed with Its preparations for the fortnightly settlement. Arbitrage houses were early buyers of St. Paul and Union Pacific, and were reported to have sold on the ad vance. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,300,000. United States bonds were all unchanged! on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. bid. Adams Express 240 Amalgam. Copper.. 44.100 108 107 108V4 Am.

After all, the question of what became of the diamond still is awaiting: answer. If she swallowed it. as she has stated on sundry occasions, though she testified she did not know whether she had or not, is It still in her stomach? is the question which Jeweler Combs would like to have an swered. Miss Thomas has declared that If she were placed on trial she would not consent to the use of the knife to en able Jeweler Combs to s;et 'back bis diamond, and there the matter rests.

Government Beport Received Too Late to Affect Prices, CHICAGO, June 11. Weakness In the wheat market developed during the early trading, and for the remainder of the day the market held firmly steady at a moderate decline. The feeling was firm at the Immediate open ing, because of strong Liverpool cables, but before the end of the first hour the de mand had shrunk to small proportions and throughout the remainder of the day. the volume of trading was small. The chief rea son for the inactivity was the Government crop report, which was made public only a few minutes before the close of the session and too late to have any effect on the prices. Improved weather conditions In all sections ofs the country were the principal causes of the weakness during the last half of the session. Clear weather was reported In the Northwest, also In the Southwest, where harvesting Is In progress, and showers were reported in Kansas and Nebraska, where rain Is greatly needed.
