Whether or not the local agitation in
meat circles has stimulated the demand,
t lie fact remains that the movement has in
creased materially of late and the retail
business of the city is lurger now than it
ever was before.
Jobbing prices are on a very firm basis
all around. On Front street the supply of
veal and pork has been very lieht for sev
eral days, and much more could have been
so hi, notwithstanding the retailers have
drawn liberally themselves from the coun
try. Small dressed veal has been particu
larly scarce on the street and medium sizes
of pork have also been In light supply.
I-ars veal and hogy have not been in such
good request. There Is also a scarcity of
small mutton, and prices In this line are
ruling hifth.
Jjlvcstoi-k quotations are unchanged, but
the feeling Is very linn, except on cattle,
ivhloh are steady. The sheep market Is in
frond shape to dispose of heavy receipts.
Hogs continue strong and the market could
handle many moro good blockers.
During the past few weeks largo numbers
of sheep have been brought to the Willam
ette Valley from Kastern Oregon ranges and
disposed of to farmers for breeding pur
poses In lots of from liOO to 000.
The Corvallls Times says that about Oc
tober 1 (Jeorfie Brown and Pete Whitaker
bought a band of 2;mm) Eastern Oregon
cheep, and all but about 400 of these havo
been disposed of for breeding purposes.
1-ast week I,ee Itrown went up on the Mc
Kenzie River and received a band of 3 .'100
sheep which had been Summered on the
Cascade reserve. Two hundred of these Mr.
Brown disposed of in Lane County, and
Saturday he passed through Corvallis with
the remaining 1100 on the way to his ranch
In the northern part of Benton. Many of
this band, however, are mutton sheep. The
latter, with a largo number of native mut
ton sheep, are likely to be taken to the
Pacific States Packing Company at once by
Mr. Brown, if negotiations pending are suc
cessful. They are to be driven to Portland
on. foot.
STRONG INQCIRY lOR LKMONS.
Fancy Stock Sells Readily at $7 per Box
Apples in Demand.
A car of lemons was unloaded yesterday
and struck an exceedingly llrm market, Fer
fectos selling readily at $7. Another car
of the same variety is due early next week.
A car of Lefting wells arrived last night.
Four cars of bananas came In in excel
lent condition. The next lot, which was
expected to arrive over, the Southern Pacific,
was billed by mlstako over the Northern Pa
cific. Apples are arriving freely and are selling
well. The prosperous condition of the local
"apple trade is due, in the opinion of deal
ers, to the fact trfat the sale of scrubby
fruit Is no longer tolerated here.
A shipment of Ohio chestnuts was received
yesterday and offered at "54.50 per crate.
NORTH YAKIMA HOP MARKET LIVELY.
Nearly 300 Bales Are Purchased on Account
of Eastern Brewers.
NORTH YAKIMA. Wash.. Nov. 2. (Spe
cial.) After lying dormant for a few weeks
the hop market took on a tone today that
was encouraging to the present holders.
Buyers went into the market and purchased
about 27a bales at prices ranging from 33
to 15 cents. Most of the purchasing was
done by S. Huntington A Co. or Eastern
brewers.
Demand for Chickens Slack.
The demand for chickens In the latter
part of the week has been slack and some
of yesterday's receipts were carried over.
There Is a good Inquiry for good fat tur
keys and the market Is firming- up. Some
yong turkeys came in yesterday, for which,
however, there Is no sale. The Chinese
were purchasers of ducks, but generally
wanted them at low er prices.
Kresh Oregon eggs were quoted firmer and
Eastern eggs unchanged.
Supplies of butter are again accumulat
ing on Front street.
Wheat Market Slow.
The movement in the wheat market con
tinues rather slow. Club wheat Is quoted
here at 64 cents a the export basis, but
rome buying on milling account Is report
ed at 65 to 06 cents. Bluestem for the
same account is quotable at 6S to 60 cents
and red wheat at 64 cents.
Oats are firm, with a good demand for
the feed grades.
Barley is steady and offerings are light.
No Developments In Hop Market.
Trading in the hop market was rather
quiet yesterday and no news of importance
developed. Some dealers were Inclined to
regard the market as easier, but there was
no pressure on the part of growers to mar
ket supplies. Much complaint is heard of
the car situation, which seems to be grow
ing worse rather than better.
Bunk Clearings.
Bank clearances of the leading cities of
the Northwest yesterday were;

HOreiiOlVEKS ARE FIRM HOLDERS.
Salem Buyers Have Little Success in Se
curing Lots.
SALEM, Or..' Nov. 2. (Special.) Hop
buyers in Salem are still actively seeking
hops, but growers are such firm holders that
little business has been done In the past
four or five days. Agents of Lachmund &
Co. have been scouring the country for the
last two days and have made many offers,
but so far as can be learned they got only
two lots, the Charles Kuensting crop of 80
bales, at Woodburn. and the Lope Sing crop
of 213 bales, on Mission Bottom, both at 15
cents. The quality was prime.
T. A. Llvesley & Co. and Klaber. Wolf
Netter have also been active, t but no pur
chases have been reported here. For choice
hops 16 cents is the best offer reported.
Hops Still at Laurel.
HILLSBORO, Or., Nov. 2. (Special.)
The report that all the Laurel hopgrowers
had sold their hops at 15 cents is unfound
ed. A buyer has bought 131 bales at 13
cents, but the Hathorn crop, mentioned as
sold, is still in the hands of the grower.
There are yet 450 bales of the choicest hops
in the Laurel section unsol
BE MOV NG
Advance Stimulated by Larger
Volume of Business.
BUT GAINS NOT ALL HELD
Squeeze of Shorts Is Shown by Wide
Jumps in Great Northern Pre- "
ferred and Northern
Pacific.
NE-H" YORK, -Nov. 2. The advance In
stocks, which was stimulated at first by the
increase In the Pennsylvania dividend, was
continued today on an increased volume of
business.
There was evidence to indicate large buy
ing by an uncovered short interest. This man
ifested itself first In the Hill stocks in the
814 Jump in Great Northern preferred and 5Vt
In Northern Pacific, and it was generally at
tributed to the squeeze of an Incautious short
Interest, which is particularly vulnerable in
these stocks, owing to the small floating sup
ply in the market.
The same Influence was created with the
aggressive advance in Reading. The only news
regarding that stock was the report of net
earnings for September, which showed a fall
ing off from September of last year, both for
the coal company and the railroad company,
the decrease for all companies reaching 9427.
150, or 23 per cent. The fact became obvious
that there has been a large amount of short
selling in the market based on the assump
tion that a period of settlement and depres
sion was certain to intervene before the elec
tion which would afford an opportunity to
cover shores at a profit. There was an ex
tensive retrtevement of such commitments to
day, the weakness of their position being .ag
gregated by the effect on the general list of
the Increase in the Pennsylvania dividend.
That stock was still active today, but it was
held back from further advance over yester
day's high level by free profit-taking. The
Pennsylvania Railroad net earnings for Sep
tember were also published, and showed that
the increase in gross earnings had been prac
tically eaten up by the growth In operating
expenses.
The course of the call loan market did not
interrupt the Improvement in prices of stocks,
in spite of the prospect of a poor bank state
ment tomorrow. The Subtreasury had taken
from the banks up to Thursday night 93.735,
000. and trustworthy estimates of the move
ment of the currency to the interior indicated
a further loss on that account sufficient to
bring the total decrease to nearly 97,000,000.
Foreign discounts rose today, and the Bank
of France and the Imperial Bank of Germany
reported a considerable impairment of con
dition, both by decrease of reserve and In
crease of liabilities. The result was a strong
foreign exchange market here, the higher
money rate abroad prompting the withholding
of finance bills from this market, while the
demand for remittance from here was quite
active.
Professional profit-taking on the day's ad
vance became general under cover of the
later stages of the advance in Reading, and
the market closed easier and materially lower
than the highest prices of the day.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value,
92.704,000. United States 3s advanced per
cent on call.

Chicago Wheat Closes Easy
After Firm Opening.
BREAK AT MINNEAPOLIS
Firm Cables, Small Receipts and De
crease in Argentine Shipments
Help at the Start Ijate
Sales to Kealize.
CHICAGO. Nov. 2. Sentiment In the
wheat pit at the opening was Inclined to the
buying side and trading was active. The
factors for higher prices were firm cables,
small receipts in the Northwest and a de
crease in the Argentine shipments from
8US.0OO bushels last week-to 592.000 bushels.
Crop advices from Argentina were also of
a bullish character. This news caused con-,
sfderable buying by pit-traders during the
first half hour. The market gradually eased
off. and late in the day became weak. A
feature of the late trading, however, was
the realizing sales by local holders, who
were induced to sell by a break in prices
of wheat at Minneapolis. The close was
weak. December opened a shade to c
higher at 74 74c to 74 74 75c, sold up to 73c
and declined to 74 c. Closing Quotations
were t c off at 74c.
Trading In the corn pit was quiet, and
the tone of the market was steady all day.
December opened a shade lower to a shade
higher at 4343c, sold off to 43c and
closed c down at 4354 c.
Oats were fairly active and the market
was inclined to be firm on small receipts
ana in sympathy with the early strength
of wheat. December opened c higher at
33c, sold between S3c and 33 (a 3374c.
and closed a shade higher at 3333c.
Provisions were weak on selling by local
longs. The selling pressure was caused by
the monthly statement, which showed that
stocks of provisions In Chicago are larger
than had been expected. At the close Jan
uary pork was oft 17g20c. lard was down
10c and ribs were 7c lower.

COLDER WEATHER HELPS
RETAIIi TRADE AND RE-ORDER
BUSINESS STIMULATED.
Iron and Steel Markets Advancing.
Wool Steady After Period
of Activity.
NEW TORK, Nov. 2. Bradstreefs tomor
row will say:
Clear and colder weather has improved
retail trade and stimulated reorder business
greatly. Industry is active, labor scarcity
Is still a feature, iron and steel markets are
advancing and large imports are the only
apparent source of relief.
Wool prices are rather steadier after the
large transactions of the past two weeks,
which have lifted a load from dealers' hands
and made manufacturers more content in
their minds now that large supplies of raw
material have been secured. Copper is dull,
but prices are not being shaved.
Car congestion and backward' grain deliv
eries due thereto are having serious effect
on that trade. Dealings in future buslhess
are restricted and export trade Is at a
standstill. Higher prices for available sup
plies are a feature.
Business failures In the United States for
the week ending November 1 number 1t.'t.
against 184 last week and 30 In the like
week of 3103. Canadian failures for the
week number ill, as against -0 last week
and 26 In this week a year ago.
Wheat (Including flour) exports from the
United States and Canada for the week
ending November 1 aggregated 4.492.974
bushels, against O.-JS:!,;!: this week last
year. Por the past 18 weeks of the fiscal
year the exports are ti2,Utftf,469 bushels,
against 33,265.827 In 1905.
WEATHER IS MORE SEASONABLE.
Retail Trade Shows Improvement in Nearly
All Sections.
NEW YORK, Nov. 2. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Colder weather has removed one of the
drawbacks to seasonable distribution of mer
chandise, but there is still much complaint
of traffic conditions. Retail trade shows
improvement in nearly all sections, and mer
cantile collections are more prompt. East
ern wool sales have attained record propor
tions, but the late Fall has delayed the de
mand for woolens.
Primary receipts of wheat are not In keep
ing with a maximum crop on account of
freight delays. After much Irregularity the
wheat market shows a substantial advance
for the week. Klour output Increased some
what, but It la still far behind the produc
tion a year ago, and mills find profits cur
tailed by the firmness of raw material.
Coarse grains are less active and fluctuate
within narrow margins.
Bank Clearings.
. NEW YORK. Nov. 2. The following tabla
compiled by Bradstreet, shows the bank clear
ings at the principal cUies for the week ended
November 1, with the percentage of increase
and decreafie as compared with the corre
sponding week last year.
