BUT FUTURE IS UNCERTAIN Heavy Receipts Acru m u Ite at Bra- zlllan Forts-Steady Buying in the Hop Market Produce Trade fs Fair. Th Eastern coffe markets continue mdy at quotations, a fraction below the hla-hest prices prevailing In the latter part of December. The future of the market is tomewhat uncertain, but the bullish ideas of some of the Mr members of the Eastern trade have undergone no alteration. In the meantime, the Brazilian markets Tiav become glutted with coffee for export. In spit of all efforts to curtail deliveries of coffee In Santos, according; to the latent advices, nearly 1.700.000 bags were brought down in November. The Sao Paulo Railway tatlon at Santos had at one time laat month In store nearly 27VO.OOO bagi. of which 22,000 were paying; demurrage. A much greater number was liable for thia pay ment, which, according to the regulations of the railway, can be charged after a de lay of 4S hours, but the time has "been ex tended to meet the extraordinary circum stances of the situation. Tha crop for Sao Paulo alone is now calculated at 17.000,000 bags, and the next crop at 8.000.000; or say 2.,000.000 for the two Reasons. In Rio the estimate of S.SoO.Mo for the current season may not be exceeded, but next season 3,000.000 win probably be delivered. A bullish effect of the valorization scheme is. however, anticipated by one of the lead ing New York brokers, who says In his lat- Is t circular: There is a very firm determination that hew Government measures shall succeed, nd the decreasing crop movement will eer alnly clear the way for it. A veraga pro uctlon Is not equn I to the constant large increase or consumption, a reaiure mat is not receiving du attention. World's pro duction 1H04-S. UKlS-fl. 11HW.-7 does not aver age over 1 rt.OOO.iKW bags, while world's con sumption for the same time is. on average. 17,000,000 bags, and we are now approach- in a small Braj.il crop that may be less than .000.000 bags. We have had about six monlhn of thr largest crop movement ever known In "Brazil ; but. nevertheless, th clocks at consuming ports at present are not much larger than they were on July 1, when the ro p commenced. The stocks at producing porta are a great deal larger, as well as the a floats, md It Is fortunate they are, with only a small balance of the cur Tent crop to be received In the next six months. The - Government holdings in all ports are. not available for trade purposes for over a year, while Interior supplies In roniumlng countries continue very meager. All the,. features are of great importance when looking at the present low level of -values, and show up thr intrinsic -merits of coffee for much higher prices.

WEAK, IRREGULAR CLOSE Note of Caotion in AnnAal Review Has its Effect on Sentiment. Conditions Tend Toward Money Relaxation. NEW YORK, Jan. 2. PrlCM of stocks wavered uncertainly today and showed a tendency to settle back to 'Monday's closing level. The volume of business waa on an Insignificant Bcale. . The constraint of the speculation was not explainable by any im mediate developments, these belny mostly favorable. But the money outlook was the subject of much consideration and of great ly mixed Interpretation. There was a wealth of authority In evi dence In the annual reviews on the (treat showing; of the year Just past, hut there was In all of these a rather surprising unl- son in. the note of caution mingled with even the most hopeful presa&e and from that ranging- downward In the scale of op timism to an admission of probable early commercial reaction and depression. This had its effect on stock market sentiment. The future of the money market also seemed far from clear. In spite of the prompt relaxation which was manifest to day In this market and in foreign markets as well. Berlin discount rates eased in a way to Rive jcratifyinaj evidence of the suc cessful passing of the year-end crisis In that market which was especially dreaded. Lon don discounts ran off in a pronounced way. The early 20 per cent rate for call loans here was not held tops;. The hue volume of cl earl mrr house exchangres was witness to the Important progress already made on Monday in disposing of the annual require ments. Conditions seemed -tending quickly. therefore, toward the money relaxation which has been relied on to revive stock: market activity. The modifying f&ctor which must be reck oned with is the course of the Treasury op erations -In the future and which were spe cially d-lt on In the January clretilar of the National City Bank. The provision is already implied for the return of the $10,- O00.O00 Government deposits held by the bunk. half on January HO and half on February J. and the latter date wan also mentioned as the period for beginning the return of the 1-7,000.000 of deposits made. at the hanks In September last. The cir cular estimates that excess of Oovernment revenues over payments between now and January 30 will amount to J36.000.000 adfll- tional. The opinion is expressed that money rates will be sustained by these causes up to the time of the maturity of the Silo. 000.000 of 4 per cent bonds, while the out tome will be affected by the alternative of the redemption of the whole Issue or of partial rsfundlnc The Hill stocKs were supported and there, was a subsidence of the rumors of money troubles crrowinc out of the severe de cllnea in those stocks. There were other polnta of occasional etrenR-th. but th vii(il in the course of the tradlnn. T market closed Irregular and near the low nrice of the day. Bends were irregular. Total sales, par value.

THE CITY AND THE STREETS Mr. Corbctt Says There's Only an Easement, .o Ownership. PORTLAND. .Ian. 2. (To the Editor.) Pun1 ay seems to be our his; day for recelv-inaj- i-o.npllin'ntary newapaper advertisement of our concern, aa a candidate for reproba- tlon for the crime of trying to "nich" part of Hull street from a loHf-sufferlng and un- HU.Pct,nB public. For two w.Ks in suoces ston we ti ii v . been aervert up as a choicely grlllea specimen ot corporate greed, and rec ommended as the final chopping block to atone for the errora of our predecessor". Still we have no complaint to make, pro vided the rush of "hot air" doesn't auck the lOJlt-al element or The Orcg;onlan8 readers out of thMr cyclone cellars, and lead them to visit us with unworthy wrath. We have admitted that we want a SO-foot strip of Hull street becauae we need it In our busl- ness. and we have also promised tut U we succeed in our unholy purpope, w will efl that a 20-foot alley la improved to a hlarhty astlafartory decree, thereby creating an am ple thoroughfare for all posterity. Ample, because It takes care of any poaslble re- qtilrements that any sane person could sug- sest. To be sure, a man dealing In arlttter lnar frenerallttes might ha'e a pipe dream which would show a squadron of cavalry moving along thla 200-foot highway, or pos- sihly some future airship seeking a restins place here, but to such thinking people a a have taken the pains actually to Investigate by looking over the ituauon, it has ap peared that our request Is reasonable. More than tthat. In bringing the project be fore the people's representatives, we haven't even acted on the Mayor's suggestion to "set up a dinner," and we are not stingy, either. But. to ull the truth, none of the gentlemen seemed to b hunarv. In fact, they didn't Impress us as being any different In their requirements for physical comfort than other representative gentlemen or peruana, As to other ways suggested for accom pli shins; our purpose, we naturally do not reel 11 1 a paying the city for something which it never really owned, and therefore could rot sell. Many years ago the city was granted easement on this property, to b used as a. street, because it then connected with two other streets aontlnulnf beyond Sherlock avenue, and the owners ot the abutting property wanted to provide an out let to these atreeta. But th streets in ns.at.nn hiLvr been Ions: sine vacated, and Hull street left with only a sign board to point to Us early ambition. Then, again, if avoidable, we would hardly care to take the risk of building an Important structure on - a niece of Drooerty merely loaned by the' cltjv on the basis of a revocable per- mlt, thus jeopardizing our future welfare. Summing it all up. we bellev that tha physical condition of that particular locality of Portland will ba greatly 1m proved IT our petition is nnally granted. While ita rejec- tlon will only cripple our Industry and leave Hull street in its present useless and nee- lected condition for an Indefinite period. lt will then represent, avs tt doea now, the re- ult ot the generally allp-shod and hand-to- mduth. method In which Portland waa orlg- lnally laid out which suggests that the Arim of vacating atrccta may not neces sarily be ao detrimental as the earlier crime of creating these streets in abnormal quan tities. Surely some of our pioneers must have considered the city in Imminent danger qutrements ot tne pursuits or peace. WILLAMETTE IRON & STEEL WORKS. By W. H- Corbet t. President. DAILY CITY .
