A fair degree of activity is reported in th
72tern Oregon wool market at the price
that were established at the public sales. Ac
cording to report received here, the majority
n growers who are now offering wool stem
ci Imposed to accept price tendered, though a
lew of them are holding back. Th n?xt
pool sales scheduled are at Shaniko n June
19 and 20, and at ileppner on June 21 r.;id
llii. The Baker City sale is at for Junt 25,
but as the sheepmen have Juet begun to shtar
In that county, it may be necessary to post
pone tha sale.
Wool la coming forward more freely In the
Valley, but the lower prices offered by buy
ers for the coarse grades has o( courso r.ot
stimulated the market. The snie that, was
fo have been held at MeMlnniMe Saturday
fell through, as the growers considered ihe
bid too low. It is understood tha; the top
price offered was 24 Vi cen s.
The scoured cost of the Baldwin clip, which
a sold at the Second Shimko sale. Is re
ported to be 7fiiff"7 cents. The wools sold at
the first day's sale at that place will c?n, it
is said, 71 to 72 cents, clean landed at Bos
ton. Nothing of importance his occurr.-d in the
Montana market since ihe recent sals of -re
Ixmg clip. In Wyoming It is estimated that
from 50 to 75 per cent of the clip has al
ready been taken, but buyers are not now
operating on the remainder. The laU-et trans
actions In the Idaho market hav-s been re
corded in theee columns.
In reviewing conditions in the wool mar
ket, the Boston Commercial Bulletin of Jun)
fl. said:
V The consumption of wool in this tountry
ut heavy, and it is eonten lt-d that the Ac
tivity in raw material necessitate! by the
materia) diminution of supplies owned by the
mills will be sufficient to malnta.n values.
Some merchants are so opUm.:tc in rt-grard
to the future that they ulieve a higher buis
can be Inaugurated and ou'ua-red. The wool
market is practically divided into two camii.
On one side is the faction that puts Its faith
in the possibility of price on a parity wifti
those it Is paying in the West, while n the
other is the party that hsllevea valuer art row
as hlffh as manufacturers will stand, and con
tequently argue that growers must midiry
thitr views, In order that the m-Ket may n..t
be forced nearer the danger point. The lat
ter set of men are not the active opeiatcra
in the territories.
Although the firms that are buyi.ig the new
clip are paying ruling prices practically vi.
drr protect, their activity Is t?e omt thir.g
that prevents the sheepman from accenting
lower figures. T t n i em a radical change talus
place In the situation, the margin of profit
this season will, in most Instances, be very
email.

J APANESE WILL PACK SALMON.
Propose to Import No More From the Pa
cific Coast.
The Japanese propose to dispense hereaf
ter with American canned salmon. A cor
poration known a the Japan Marine Produc
tion Company has been organized at Tokto,
with 3.000.000 capital, to can salmon, sar
dines, ink-fltih, oysters, clams, etc. Since the
war red cohoe salmon has fallen to 8.50 yen
per case of 48 Is, for which there la a good
interior demand. The new company expects
to handle export as well as domestic trade,
and says no more canned salmon will be im
ported by Japan. The demand for salted
talmon i heavy and Increasing In Japan, and
Is extending Into Cores and Manchuria. One
Tokio firm handled 8000 tons laeit year, in
cluding war supplies'. About 25 per cent was
from the Pacific. Coast, 30 per cent from Hok
kaido, and the remainder from Alaska and
the Russian coast.
May Advance Eggs.
A movement Is on foot bv some of .the
Front-street produce men to advance eggs
to 22 cents today if receipt continue light.
Yesterday's market ranged from 20 to 21
cents, according to quantity.
The poultry market was well supplied, but
prices were held up by a good demand.
No change was reported In the butter sit
uation. Sugar Advances In the Eat.
There was an advance of 10 cents In all
grades of refined sugar in the Bust yester
day. Prices on the Coast were not changed.
The market for raw sugar In the East ha
an exceedingly strong tone, due to the un
favorable weather In Cuba and Germany,
where excessive rains have Interfered with
the crop. Refined sugars on this Coast are
firm and under normal conditions pripes would
be higher.
Fruit Arrives Too Late.
The California express arrived too late yes
terday to be of much use on Front street.
It was after 4 o'clock when the fruit was
delivered, and then business for the day
was practically over. There were heavy ship
ments of peaches, particularly, and also good
supplies of apricots, plums, cherries, corn and
WILLING
green and wax beans. With the promise of
better weather, however, everything is ex
pected to be worked off today. Strawberries
were more numerous on Front etret than of
late, and though quoted at 41.50il.65, were
slow to move. A car of Mediterraneans)
Sweets and a car of potatoes arrived in the
afternoon.

Henry Clews, writing from New Tork, June
9, says of financial conditions:
The stock market Is In rather an unusual
condition. While sellers are exceedingly op
timistic, buyers are conservative and more
or les critical. General condition continue
excellent outside of the stock market, and
are much in favor of holders. The local
monetary situation, for Instance, steadily Im
proves. Funds are returning from the In
terior and large amounts (fully $13,000,000
Hhu far) have been sent back from San
Francisco, so that our bank reserves ought
to ehow a rising tendency. Call loan have
consequently been easy. Indicating a better
supply of money for Immediate needs, al
though time money i still held at fairly
good rates. In the foreign . markets easy
conditions also obtain,' and the outlook is for
a continuance of those favorable condition.
The American business eltuatton is emi
nently eatisfactory. Crop prospects thus far
are certainly encouraging. A fine Winter
wheat crop is practically assured, and good
prices will be aecured by the farmer. Other
grain crops also promise well at this date,
although corn planting is a trifle late. A mod
erate increase in the cotton crop ie also an
ticipated and the Southern planter Is justi
fied in expecting another profitable season.
All over the V'nlted State the agricultural
das;" are enjoying very unusual prosperity
through the good prices obtained for their
products. This should assure the country
another good Fall and Winter trade. Reports
from large business houses in the West are
exceedingly encouraging in this respect. No
complaints are heard about oversupplle In
the hand of distributors; and, while prices
are high that fact does not yet appear to
have had any marked restraint upori demand.
Should present promises, therefore, be ful
filled we may anticipate another good season
for the railroads and the great industrial
concern.
Within the stock market, conditions are not
so eminently satisfactory. Some of the en
couraging features above alluded to have been
well discounted. Prices are exceedingly high;
so high, in fact, that investors are not rush
ing for stocks when they can secure more
profitable employment for their money In
other directions. Another deterrent feature
is the large present and prospective Increase
in the supply of new securities. The bond
market Is already badly congested with new
Issues which Investors will not take until
money market conditions improve. At the
same time. It ie well known that the rail
roads mill he obliged to raise considerable
amount of new capital during the next few
weeks, either through new stock and bond Is
sues or short-term notes. The prospect, of
course, of a large Increase In the supply of
new eecurities is not at first sight a bull argu
ment. On the other hand, our leading bank
ers, .who expect to float these Issue, will be
obliged to use their influence to keep the mar
ket in a healthy a condition as possible In
Pdr to facilitate the placing of these is
sues. For this reason, and the satisfactory
outside situation, it seem useless to look
for any important decline in prices at the
present moment.

Business Conditions in the
Industry Not Favorable.
EXCEPT IN RAIL BRANCH
St. Paul Makes a Further Advance,
but the Gain Is Lost in the
Selling Pressure in the
Final Dealings.
NEW YORK. June IS. In Its main es
sentials today's stock market was but a
repetition of tho of the early week. Trading
was affaln in moderate volume, fluctuations
were for the most part narrow and the bulk
of the trading was, if possible, even mora
professional. Of outside interest there was
none.
The news of the day, while again lacking
In specific detail, was not of the character
calculated to make for higher prices. The
pressure directed against the United Statea
Steel Issues today wan so . persistent as to
provoke comment. The downward tendency
of these shares was doubtless accounted for
In part. If not entirely, by the testimony of
those in a position to know that the business
in all branches of this industry, except steel
rails. Is on the decline, as compared) with
the unprecedented activity of the past year.
The increase of the Pennsylvania Com
pany', dividend from a S to 8-per-cent basis
failed to evoke any response in the shares
of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, al
though the entire stock of the first-named cor
poration is held by the railroad. St. Paul
was again the only stock that displayed de
cided strength, the other active issues, with
few exceptions, showing marked weakness.
A few new stories were circulated to ac
count for St. Paul's further rise, some of
them so Impossible as to fall of their cwn
weight. Board room gossip had it that a
prominent operator, whoso successful coup
in one of the Southern Railway properties a
few years ago is still remembered, had bought
heavily of St. Paul In the hope of secur
ing recognition in lut directory. Another
equally irresponsible story was that Union
Pacific Interests had recently acquired large
holding, with a view to getting control.
In the final dealings, the selling pressure
became no acute as to wipe out St. Paul',
gain and reduce the general level materially
below the previous day', closing. The great
est weakness was in the Hill stocks. Union
Pacific, Kansas & Texas, Missouri Pacific,
Chicago Great Western. Kansas A Texas
preferred, Ixmlsville & Xashvllle and Brook
lyn Rapid Transit, with similar wcAnesa in
numerous Industrial stocks.
Money conditions were without material
change, aside from the better demand for over
year loans which were made at 64 pep cent,
though six months loan, were reported at 4.
Late Incidents of the day included an in
crease from 2 to 24 per cent on the divi
dend on the preferred1 stock of the Pittsburg
A St. Ixmla road and the publication of the
Western Union Telegraph Company's earning
for th -year. The figures Indicated a slight
falling off In net, and a probable decrease of
about $200,000 In the year's surplus.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, J2.4T0.0o0. United Statea bonds were
all unchanged on call.

Conflicts With Anti-Trust Act.
COLUMBUS, O., June 13. Attorney
General Ellis, in an opinion to Secre
tary of State Layton, has held that the
kind of business done by the United
States Investors' Company is Illegal in
Ohio, and advises him not to issue a
certificate. The United States Inves
tors' Company is a New York corpora
tion, and controls a number of sub
sidiary companies engaged in mining.
etc., the stock of which is subjected to
the payment of a share of its divi
dends into a pool, out of which divi
dends on the holding company's stock
are to be paid. Mr. Ellis holds that this
conflicts with the anti-trust act.
