CLIP IS GOING OFF
Woolbuyera Leaving Eastern
Oregon for Montana.
iIO CHANGE IN PRICES
pastern Operators Anxious to See the
Market Advance Now Heavy
Arrivals of Frutt Coun
try Produce Steady.
"WOOL Oregon clip moving oft rap
Idly. FRUIT Heavy arrivals from Cali
fornia. VEGETABLES Wax beans In over
supply. WHEAT Local market dull.
BUTTER Good movement In cream
ery grades.
EGGS Slightly higher prices quoted.
POULTRY Steady demand con
tinues. MEATS Veal and pork move read
ily. Eastern Oregon wool are moving readily
now and In some sections etocka are being
pretty well cleaned up. The prices ruling at
private sales are close to those set at the
auctions. A number of the buyer have left
and gone to Montana, where the big clips will
be sold at public sales after the Fourth. The
market In the Valley la without feature. Coun
try merchants are taking all that la offered
to them, generally at 23 cents, which price
growers are satisfied to accept. In the East
ern counties sheepmen also show a willing
ness to accept the present offers, though many
of the growers had their views set much
higher before the market opened.
A similar attitude toward the market is
shown by Washington woolgrowers. but over
In Idaho sentiment Is divided and much of
the wool that was withdrawn from the public
sales la atlll being held back to await de
velopments. Among the recent transaction
In Wyoming are 300.000 pounds taken by a
"Western firm on a clean basis of 71g72c, and
1SO.0OO purchased by a Boston buyer as 22VJc,
the shrink of which Is In the neighborhood
of 72 per cent. A Philadelphia house that
took the latter clip In 1805 atlll owns It and
will sell It at 23c. Medium wools are bring
ing 23fi24c Only a few sales have taken
place In Montana recently, the buyere being
Boston and Philadelphia men and the prices
raid 24c to 24 14.
The Eastern traae Is speculating as to the
possibility of getting price up, now that a
good share of thl year's clip la out of first
hand. Many of the purchases were made
above a parity with the Boston market, and
therefore an elevation of value will be
necessary to enable the speculators to come
out with profit. The fate of the market Is in
the hands of the manufacturer and their
course Is being carefully watched. "With the
raw material advanced cloth will have to be
put up and then it 1? a" question whether or
not the demand In the goods trade can be
maintained.
PLENTY OF FRUIT NOW.
Heavy Receipts From California and From
. Local Points. Demand Is Good.
Front etreet was abundantly supplied with
deciduous fruits yesterday, a mixed car
load arriving from California in addition to
the ueual express shipments. There was also
a straight car of Mermaid cantaloupes and
..M Hinnllu . nh.r.l.. A .Kui. ln.nl
The demand, both local and shipping, 'was
good and the supply will be cleaned up by
the time the next heavy receipts are at hand.
In the car from the south were Hale's
Early, Alexander and Triumph peaches. Bur
bank and Climax plums and new apples, all
in excellent condition. No apricots arrived.
The peaches were quoted at $1(&-1.25 and the
plums at $1.25(91. 60 per box. The apples
were in pear boxes and brought SI. 7532.
Cantaloupes declined to 4 a crate. A ship
ment of Thompson's seedless grapes, the first
of the season, came in and told for 32.251
2.50 a box. cherries are arriving freely from
local points and are of better quality. Straw
berries are about done for. Blackberries,
raspberries and Logan berries are In good
demand. Currants continue scarce.
In the vegetable line, the most plentiful ar
ticle Is wax beans, which sell readily but
are weakened by excessive receipts. New pota
toes rule steady and new onions are quoted
firm.
SUGAR FROM PHILIPPINES.
Western Refinery Draws Its Material From
Across the Pacific.
An item of special interest in the grocery
trade Is the recent importation into San Fran
cisco of two large cargoes of Philippine sugar
by the Western Refining Company. It is
many years sines the last sugar from the
Philippine Islands came into San Francisco,
but now the Importations will continue
.steady. The Bpreckels Company was forced
into this move by the diverting of Hawaiian
sugar to tbe rival refinery.
Arbuckle Bros, say they have no intention
of meeting the recent cut In the price of
Lion coffee, claiming that the quality and
grade of their product warrant maintaining
the present price. '
POULTRY PRICES HOLD CP.
Good Demand (or Chickens Takes Care of
All the Offerings.
The poultry market has held up better thl
week than expected. Receipt have been fair
ly large, but the demand for chicken proved
good and- prices war maintained. Ducks
were the only weak spot in the market.
Egg are active and firm in srlte of lib
eral arrivals from the East. A few dealers
quoted a half cent advance yesterday. A car
of Eastern was put on the street and another
car will be on hand Friday.
The butter market Is quoted firm by most
of the city creameries. Outside brands, how
ever, are still too plentiful, and accumula
tion are only cleaned up by making conces
sions. Cheese 1 firm at the recent advance.
Wheat Still Quiet.
The wheat market Is dull and featureless,
with prices almost wholly nominal. The ab
sence pt steamer facilities prevents the trans
action of business with California points.
Farmers' offerings are light. There is a
good local flour movement, but the export
Inquiry la slow.
Dressed Meats Steady.
A good demand, due to cooler weather and
moderate receipts, holds the market for fresh
meats steady. Veal, If In good condition, sells
readily at the top quotation. Pork Is Arm
at 84 cents and some dealers quote a shade
better on fancy offerings.
Why Lemon Are High.
The firmness of the lemon 'market, which
bid fair to continue during the remainder of
the season, is due to the heavy demand for
California lemons in the East, occasioned by
the short crop of Sicilies. Advices from New
Tork yesterday stated that shipment of lem
ons from Sicily to the United States last
week were 40,000 boxes, against 125.000 boxes
for the corresponding period a year ago. High
price also . prevail at the. different ( 'European
distributing points, which are drawing heav
ily on Sicily. i

BREAK IN STOCKS
Operators Lose Confidence in
the Market.
FAVORABLE NEWS IGNORED
Every Opportunity Taken to Make
S&les and No Effective Sup
port Forthcoming Money
Market Is Firmer.
NEW YORK. June 27. Today's break In
prices on the stock market was due as much
as anything to discouragement over the fail
ure of the market to respond to anything In
the nature of favorable developments. This
had the 'effect of fixing opinion that all fa
vorable opportunities were being taken to sell
stocks and reassured the uncovered bear in
terest which had begun to manifest some
misgivings over It position.
With the demand from the bears to cover
shorts reduced, there was no effective buying
from any quarter to absorb the heavy liquida
tion which came upon the market. Some per
sistent efforts were made during the morn
ing to support price and to drive the shorts
to cover. This had the effect, for awhile, of
intimidating the bears and on any consider
able decline they showed a disposition to
take their profits and to buy. With the
progress of the day the pressure of long
stock on any advantageous opportunity be
came clearly manifest, and efforts at sup
port were almost wholly abandoned.
Ar example of the action of the market
In the face of good new was urniehed In
the case of Anaconda, which broke vio
lently on realizing on yesterday's dividend in
crease before the general market began to
weaken. Its depression was communicated to
Amalgamated Copper. Various reports cir
culated during the day of Intended dividend
increase and the actual raising of the rate
of disbursement on Ontario & Western there
fore was without effect in Inducing any buy
ing of stocks.
The money market today offered no evi
dence of any urgent demand for funds on
call, althougn the tone was somewhat firmer.
But the influence of lenders of money in in
ducing the liquidation of stock was believed
nevertheless to be a preponderant factor. A
large reduction of commitments on the part
of the stock market pools seemed- in progress
under this Influence. Many reports were cur
rent of discrimination against some of the
industrial stocks as collateral on loans, and
while the banks were not Inclined to admit
these reports, the special weakness in the
stock market of the stocks referred to in the
reports indicated a condition of disfavor of
these securities at their present level of
values. Calling of loans proceeded to some
extent In preparation for the July settlement.
Sterling exchange continued to decline with
Increased prospects of gold being secured for
Import. It Is now believed that the $10,000,
000 of Government deposit will be with
drawn from the National banks on July 10
In accordance with the announcement in or
der to facilitate the redeposlt of Government
funds In San Francisco banks, which is In
tended. A meeting of St. Paul directors without tak
ing any action on the expected plan for
financing the Pacific Coast extension added
to the feeling of disappointment and Increased
the weakness cf the stock market, which was
acute In the last hour, with closing prices
near the lowest. General net losses run
from 1 to over 2 points and the leading specu
lative favorites lost from 3 to 4 point and
upwards on the day's dealings.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value, $1,936,000. United States bond were
all unchanged on call.

FUTURE DF STOCK MARKET
IMPORTANT . PART AVIIIj BE
PLAYED BY COMJXG CROPS.
No Noticeable Symptoms of Reaction
in Industrial Lines or
of Overproduction.
Henry Clews' weekly Wall-street letter say
In part:
The future of our stock market, of course,
depends very largely upon the crop. Thus
far advices have been somewhat conflicting. A
sufficient wheat crop Is practically secured,
but jio bumper yield. Corn la lat and It 1
still too early to form an opinion of this all
important grain. There 1 nothing disturb
ing, however, Just now in the grain outlook.
Cotton appear to hay been somewhat af
fected by unfavorable weather, but the pros
pect I for an abundance of this staple at
profitable prices. If American farmer have
another fairly good year, a now seem prob
able, we may confidently look forward to an
other season of satisfactory business condi
tions. Should the crops prove disappointing
the Injury will fall less severely upon the
farmers than usual because of their generally
excellent financial condition. Nevertheless, a
poor harvest might easily mark a turning
point In business. In the money market rea
sonable rates are anticipated until crop de
mands assert themselves. There are no im
portant symptom of trade reaction in any
department, nor can any signs of overproduc
tion be detected In the large industries, though
it is quite conceivable that any decided check
In consumption from any cause whatever might
quickly bring us into a period of overproduc
tion. The break in price for Southern iron
produced some unsettlement in the iron mar
ket, though that industry is still extraordinar
ily active and overcrowded with orders.
FLURRY IX OREGON HOPS.
Buyers geek to Contract 1906 Crop at 10
Cents at McMlnnvllle.
M'MINNVILLE. Or., June 27. (Special.)
Hopgrowers in the vicinity of McMlnnvllle are
greatly encouraged by offers now being made
to contract this year' crop of bops at ad
vanced prices. Henry Conoyer, representing

000 pounds of Joseph Matty at 10V4 cents

like price, while C. S. Daniel, a local buyer,
purchased the entire crop of H. C. Eggleston,
estimated at from 15.000 to 20.000 pounds, at
10 cents. Other growers are declining simi
lar offers. These contracts are understood
to require the delivery of only good merchant
able hops, otherwise known a primes," an
offer of 11 cents having been made a grower
provided he would agree to deliver choice
hops.
Henry Conoyer, of Schwarts fc Sons, and
George Dorcas, of Klaber, Wolf & Netter,
are in the cits? this evening, and are appar
ently anxious to do business. The crop this

The trouble was caused by operations

gerous one, but the reports concerning
what had (been done spread rapidly today,
especially among the Hebrews, and be
came changed into reports that the Rus

peated In this country, and that a start
was being made on Hebrew children in
the schools.
Throughout the disorders several hun
dred policemen could not restore order.

NEW YORK, June 27. H. K. Cooper, a
sugar planter of Honolulu, got by the
customs officials who met the steamship
Kron Prlns Wilhelm yesterday In record
time. It happened that Deputy Surveyor
Bishop went down the bay and met the

a cable message telling me that my wife
was critically ill in Honolulu and I took
the first ship I could get. If I get the
5 o'clock train from Jersey City I can
make connections to San Francisco and
get a steamer the day I reach tbe Coast.
Otherwise I must wait nearly a week
there."
Mr. Cooper's baggage was passed. At

and when he reached the Jersey City
station of the Pennsylvania Railroad he
had several minutes to spare.
