THE MORNING OKEGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, JULY 4, 1906. 13 MTMSBOll: Getting Ready to Set New Crop Prices. PREDICT FURTHER DECLINE Front Street Well Cleaned Up ot Perishable Goods and Ready for Fourth of July Half Holiday Rest. WOOL Steady and firm. FRUITS Well sold out. VEGETABLES Market well sup plied. WHEAT Dull and lower. BUTTER Good supply; price fairly steady. EGGS Stocks moving well; ranch plenty. POULTRY Large Springs In de mand; hens plenty. MEATS Light veal and hogs in de mand; lambs bring fancy price. Locally the grain market apparently has broken through the long period of apathy. Yesterday quotations were lowered on blue stem to 73c and red to 68c. This decline was brought about through an effort to antici pate the opening price on new crop. At the counting-rooms of the leading mills, dealers and exporters. It was stated that now crop wheat will be lower than prevailing figures, ven at the decline. Wr the remaining low stocks held by sell ers, it Is stated that selling will be somewhat more active from now on. Holders will want to clean up prior to harvest and naturally will want to obtain the best price. Whether or no they will rejrard the drop in quotations as a business move, which the trade claims is Justified by present and prospective conditions, or will continue to hold for possible change In crop conditions, the next few days will determine. As stocks are low, the trade expresses in difference as to what Is done, one way or the other, and say that prices are now full value for either milling or export business. Small lots continue to arrive, a steamer now unloading at the Portland Mills dock being one of the most recent lots handled. STREET WELL CLEANED TJP. Commission Men and Dealers to Observe the Holiday. The street was nicely cleaned up of perish able goods last evening, with some exceptions, and It was the unanimous opinion among deal ers and commission men that in years there was never a better trade nor a better disposal of stock than the holiday season Just ended. It will be necessary this morning to have some men on hand to take care of last night's and this morning's arrivals of Logan berries and such like fruits that are expected, to gether with roultry and fresh meats, should any be sent in. It will be necessary to put the berries In basements to wait for tomor row's trade, as the stores will not bs open for the transaction of any but emergency business In the forenoon. Lemon stocks were about depleted and there will be quite a shortage until the arrival of the next shipments from the South. Some lots are due today, but of course will not be available for what Is known as the extra holiday demand. Continued hot weather will soon bare the market again and higher prices are predicted. The average price yesterday wi a box. Some coops of poultry were held over, but the marke t closed firm and will probably open the same way tomorrow, unless receipts arc unexpectedly heavy. FIRST STEAMER FRUIT LINE. London Firm of Importers of Apples Ar ranging for Fast Service. Oregon and Washington orchardlsts will be Interested In the dispatch following. Hereto fore the foreign markets were reached under the difficulty of Irregular sailings, and, while the demand, especially In England, has grown to large proportions for Coast apples, the danger of injury to the fruit attending slow service has greatly retarded growth In the trade. Upon the establishment of the new line re ferred to. there will be. doubtless, concerted action by growers in this part oft the country to avail themselves of the opportunity to en large foreign trade. The dispatch read: New York. July 3 The first steamship service ever operated exclusively for the ex portation of American apples is now being arranged by Harry M. Isaac, of a firm of fruit importers of London. The rM;s will ply between Boston and London and Hull, formerly It has been ths cjistom to ship thi apples on the large freight ships, but the business has grown so as to support a line of steamers. Mr. Isaac, who Is now in New York, says that the exportation of apples will be greatly expedited by the new service, and much of the fruit will be marketed, to better advantage abroad. The steamers will call every fortnight and will have a capacity of 20.000 barrels. The total exports of apples last season from all ports was 2.413.473 bar rels. LIVESTOCK MARKET. .Long-Continued Shortage of Hogs Causes Stiff Prices for Products. For the past month there has been an ac tive demand for both live and dressed hogs In this market. The price offered Is high enough to attract buyers, so that the reason able conclusion is that hogs are not held in Coat States, A few large and undesirable animals came in now and again, but the In quiry Is for light hogs good block porkers. The scarcity has found Its natural sequence, a stiffening in the price of hams, both plain and fancy, cured and boiled. Yesterday was no exception to the recent market situation, there being but part of a load in the day's arrivals at the stockyards. The advent of hot weather will ease off the demand, not only for hogs but also for sheep to some extent. Lambs will continue to be In good demand for some time to come, and the market is quite Arm at quotations. KEEPING UP WELL. San Francisco Makes Remarkably Good Showing- in Rank Clearing's for June. i1" .fact that th business dis trict of San Francisco has hardly begun to be re-ejtablished and that half the population has removed, temporarily perhaps, the show ing made in the months of June in bank clear ings U remarkable. The Chronicle financial report sao ' The bank clearing for June show" a small reduction a compared with the same month last year, but this, might certainly be expected The total for June is $132,605,554. while In June. 1&05, the aggregate was S14S.080.164 During the last week the clearings were $31 1 782.172. which la only $3, 2 7. 934 lees than, for the corresponding week of last year."

GOVERNMENT NOT PLEASED Stock Market Irregular on High Rates for Call Money With Heavy Payments Pending. NEW YORK. July 3. With liquidation car ried to the extent it has been in the recent stock market, the bear operators who have followed the decline are Induced to growing caution as it proceeds. It was the common opinion that today's buying came in large part from uncovered bears. The holiday Interval impending tomorrow in clined the professional operators to close up outstanding contracts anyhow. There was an evident subsidence ateo of the selling pres sure upon the market which was continued In the early dealings today. The bears were Inclined to buy for covering purposes even on this first break In prices, and they pushed their demand when the light pressure upon the market was perceived. This covering move ment, however, was conducted in an exceed ingly leisurely fashion and gave so little evi dence of urgency or disquiet as to offer little encouragement for the inauguration of an ag gressive bull movement against the short po sition In the market. Professional sentiment still shaped Itself to the view that any ex tensive rally in prices would invite renewed liquidation. The call money market remained tight with no sign of marked relaxation by the return to the money market or dividends and interest disbursed. Talk of relief of the money mar ket by gold imports was not eo confident, ow ing to the failure to secure any part of yes terday's large arrivals of gold in London for New York account. A further fall In the Sterling exchange rate at Paris today em phasized the competition of Paris for any available gold supply in London. Exchange was weak here, however. Discounts in Lon don made a further decline. It is not be lieved that last week's reports of expected large engagements cf gold in Lodon for im portation to New York were based on an as sumption by local bankers that the Secre tary of the Treasury would renew his aid to the movement by advances of Government de posits to save interest while the gold is in transit. Current discussion points to eome dissatis faction on the part of the Government au thorities with the deliberation of banks of returning deposits made with them against previous gold engagements. It seems to be understood that there will be no immediate re newal of the privilege. Another small transfer of currency with some demand from San Francisco through the sub-Treasury today, with an offsetting influ ence of the transfer through the same medium to New Orleans, indicated an unusually early demand from that source upon this center. Reports were received of an arrival of $1,000, 000 of Alaskan gold at Pacific porta, mark ing the season's beginning on an Important movement of replenishment for money re serves. After the payment of dividends and interest Is completed an important item in money transactions will be the payment of 40 per cent of subscriptions on the new Baltimore & Ohio stock, which falls due on July 16, and will call for upward of $11,000,000. This Is in addition to the withdrawal of $10,000,000 of Government deposits that the National banks set for July 10 and the $30,000,000 Pan ama Canal bond subscriptions, which are set for July 30. Pennsylvania was a feature In the reaction today of prices in spite of a decline In net earnings for May, the effect of the anthra cite miners' strike. The Government's monthly report on cot ton was regarded by the cotton market as bullish, but this impression 'was modified by the Weather Bureau's weekly summary. Amer ican Ice was sharply depressed by an Alder manic meeting against the scale of prices. Amalgamated Copper advanced in the face of a decline In prices of the metal both here and in London. There was marked subsid ence of demand at the higher levels with some reaction and an Irregular closing at a spotty rally. Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value. $2,115,000.
