THE MORNING OREGONIAN. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1907. 15 ran floor is iip Prices Will Advance Ten Cents a Barrel Today. LOCAL MARKET IS STRONG Wheat I Again Quoted Higher and ,a Premium Would Readily Be Paid For Spot Stocks. Export flour prices will he advanced 10 cents a barrel this morning by the Portland Flouring Mills. This advance comes as a result of tho very urgent Oriental flour demand, coupled with the extreme scarcity of wheat at this point. The local flour market continues firm at the recent ad vance, with an active movrment reported both by millers and jobbers. No wheat has come forward from the interior for seven days, and it will be sev eral days yet before any can arrive, ow ing to the blockade on the O. R. A N. line. Spot stocks are small and very firmly held. Yesterday's quotations were more or less nominal and represent what buyers here would pay for stocks In the country with the prc3ent railroad facilities. Wheat on the track at this point would undoubtedly command a good premium. A large handler of wheat fa Id yesterday: "If I had 100, 000 or 50.000 bushels of club wheat in Portland today, I could sell it without trouble at 72 cents." rOTATO BVVERS ARE CAUTIOUS. Fear lATge Shipments May Vaken ban Francisco Market. Potato buyers are operating cautiously, as thry fear the large quantity moving to San Francisco may weaken that market. Up to the present time the San Francisco trade has absorbed all the arrivals from Ore gon, and the former prices have been well maintained. A private wire from San Fran cisco yt'stcrday reported the sale of a fancy car of Oregon Burbanks at 92.25, which the shipper confidently expected to receive more for. The San Francisco Call of Tuesday said of the potato and onion markets In the Bay City: There were fully ten cars of potatoes in from Oregon and the East yesterday, be sides the usual over-Sunday arrivals from the river districts. The market. having previously been quite bare, remained very firm despite the increased receipts, and firmer prices ruled for all descriptions, some fine Orej-nn Burbanks even commanding a substantial premium In small lots. .The receipts included some Garnet Chiles, which were held for seed purposes at 91.40tr 1.50 per cental. Onions were offering in rather limited quantities and prices were easily maintained. EGCiH ON THE HOWXWARU SLIDE. Loral Stocks Accnmulat Ing and Outside Buyers Not Interested. The slump that started In the egg market Wednesday morning encountered no obstacle yesterday and prices continued to decline during the day. Receipts were heavy. Front street alone getting about 250 cases, and probably not over half of these were moved. Pnles were reported In the fore noon at 374 cents and later at 35. One large handler sent out numerous wires of fering stock at 32 cents and received no answers. Pan Francisco ofTered to sell eggs . h,ere at 30 and later at 2tt cents, . o. IS- out found no buyers. A little poultry came to hand and moved off fairly well at quotations. The butter market was steady In price and Inclined to be stow. Orange Market Weak. Three cars of oranges arrived yesterday, and with the stocks on hand the market was overloaded and weak. Tangerines, how ever, are selling better. Four cars of ba nanas came In In fine condition. A car of celery and a car of mixed vegetables are stalled back of a washout near Junction City, but may be in today. Bank Clearings.

STOCKS OWTHE RISE Broad and Animated Advance in New York Market. CLOSING TONE IS STRONG Inspiration Comes From Washington Rumors of More Friendly At titude of the Government Toward Corporations. NEW TORK, Feb. 7. A hesitating and Ir regular advance broadened out in the final hour of today's stock market into a more animated and comprehensive rise than rias occurred at any time since the decisive downward tendency of prices set in. The Inspiration was largely tn rumors of Wash ington origin of a new development there that would relieve the corporation world from the sense of hostility. on the part of the Administration. Sentiment was favorably affected by the advices from the Winter wheat regions of the safety of that crop. The Southwestern railroads were most Immediately afected. Assertions of an intended increase In the dividends on Atchison and Southern Pacific were used with effect, especially in the case of Atchison. Southern Pacific was slug gish and did not respond even to the later rise In Union Pacific upon the President's return to his office after a period of ill ness. Prospects for 'the proposed increases in freight rates eerved to counteract to some extent the showing of decreases in net earnings of railroads. The traffic managers' plan for freight advances is looked to as a possible means of increase in the earnings, and at the same time adding to the effi ciency of the present supply of equipment. The intention of railroad companies to re trench tnclr plans of future projects of im provement is now generally accepted as a fixed determination. The reduction of the pressure for new capital Is expected to re sult and a subsidence of a part of the de mand for materials and for labor is to be accepted as an inevitable consequence. ihe feature of the day in the money mar ket was the free offerings of funds on time. Foreign exchange was firmer, although the strong position reported By the Bank of England and Bank of France showed the trength of the foreign financial position in spite of the retention of the 5 per cent discount rate by the Bank of England. While the late rise in stocks broadened out to some extent. It was still largely specialized in tne early ravorites. The closing was strong at the best. Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value. $2,080,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. Hi eh. I.nw. Ki.i.

ABOUT NOTED PERSONS (Continued From First Page.) age had been placed in the Smithsonian Institution. When ho had time to get his breath and make a reply to the nu merous charges, Mr.' Bell explained that his package at the institution did not contain a long-distance seeing apparatus, and furthermore that he Bad never even thought of such a thing. Although many years have passed, none of the outraged "English and American inventors have ever come forward with the invention which they said had been stolen from them. Chicken in Allopathic Doses. The late Dr.. Harriet S. French, of Philadelphia, was one of the vanguard of women physicians in this country. She was the lifelong friend of Frances Wil- lard and it was to her that Miss Willard went for advice when she was still pen niless and unknown. Dr. French often described her first glimpse of the slim, quietly frocked girl. w!)o told her that she had decided to consecrate her life to the temperance cause and would like to have guidance fpr her first steps. Dr. FYench was a homeopathic physician and a staunch advocate of mild doses for pa tients. This, caused her to have many a tilt with her allopafhic colleagues over the weakness of her medicine. "You have no idea of strength," a friend declared to her one day. "You let the shadow of a chicken fall across clear water, and then feed ft to your patients for broth." Dr. French retorted: "Well, that is better than feeding them the whole chicken, bones, feathers and all." Dr. Allen G. Hall, moderator of the gen eral assembly of the Southern branch of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, is a famous storyteller and after dinner speaker and takes a lively interest in politics. During a recent campaign he asked a friend for a frank opinion of a certain high "public officer. The friend replied with candor and profanity: "That man is a d n fOQl " ."Whereupon Dr. Hall said: "As moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States, as a ruling elder in the church and as the superintendent of a Sunday school, I am' constrained to rebuke your phraseology, but my devotion to truth compels me to applaud your sentiment." Sirs. Bellamy Storer's Fail. Mrs. Bellamy Storer, who recently fig ured in the limelight as a vigorous but unsuccessful exponent of diplomacy, has had other fads besides politics. She is a wbman of unbounded energy and applies herself with much zeal to whatever she goes In for. Before her marriage to Mr. Storer she was Mrs. George Ward Nichols, of Cincinnati, and one of her early ambitions was to Initiate Ameri cans into the delights of the French salon. She pressed the unwilling Mr. Nichols into service, and they liad "regu, lar evenings devoted to art." While she did not meet with the measure of suc oess she had anticipated, it can be said that It was due to her efforts that the first specimens of Rookwood pottery were made in the United States. Whenever the "female ambassadress" went on her diplomatic Journeys she continued her quest for pottery of rare coloring and delicate line, and she now has the most remarkable collection in America. When Judge Page Morris was a Con gressman from Minnesota, he was sore beset by relatives from various parts of the country, -who besieged him with hun dreds of senseless questions. Tho Judge was intense and excitable and, when pro voked, had a trick of pulling ferociously at his long hair. Shortly after the ad journment of one of the sessions of Con gress, he received a long -"collect" mes sage from a brother of his, who was a pastor in Natchez. Mississippi. The min ister wanted to know If the report that Congress had adjourned was true. This was the final straw. Turning to his sec-, retary, the judge shouted: "Telegraph that fool brother of mine that Congress has not been In session for three jtears; that he has been misin formed." Arbuckle's Squirrel Soup. Macklyn Arbuckle. who plays the title role in George Ade's "County Chair man." was once a candidate for justice of the peace In Texarkana, Tex. At that time the genial star was harassed by a serious shortage of funds. He made a deal with the manager of a Mexican restaurant to furnish him meals for $3 a week. However, the "Mexican host knew something about the rapacious ap petites of aspiring politicians, so he protected himself from possible loss by making the stipulation that whenever he considered that Arbuckle had con Fumed $3 worth of food, the politician was to finish out the week on squirrel soup. Mr. Arbuckle had plenty of flesh to spare, and the arrangement was work ins; beautifully, until his political oppo nent found It out and told the story in one of his speeches. , "Of course you know, feller citizens." said the divulger of the secret, 'we ckin't have no man fur jestice of the peace In this yere town who lives on squirrel soup. Why. the first time he's let loose, jest as like as not he'll turn tail and run up the nearest tree." M Arbuckle lost the election, and in des peration went on the stage. Engines Too Heavy for Roadbed. ' GRANT'S PASS Or.. Feb. 7. Expert enced railroad men afhrm that the nu merous wrecks the Southern Pacific has been having recently are caused by over turned rails, the last three wrecks that have occurred in Cow Creek Canyon having apparently been from that cause. The company has only lately Installed heavy power locomotives, which appear to be more powerful than the track will stand. Another trouble is the lack of section men. Their wages have been cut to $1.35 a day and It is hard to get men to work jLlor; that rate, . three months bills cent. EUROPE BUYS WHEAT Foreign Situation Reported to Be Strongest in Years.

The corn market was firm early In the day in sympathy with oats, but later the tone became weak because of realizing by some of the larger holders.

SCHOONER PUTS BACK TO PORT Washington Is Disabled "While Cross ing Out From Astoria. ASTORIA, Or.. Feb. 7. (Special.) The tus Samson, with the barge schooner Washington In tow, which crossed out this morning, returned late this evening and both are now at anchor In the lower harbor, with the barge in distress. As the vessels were crossing out about two hours after high water this morning, the Washington had her en sign at half-mast and upside down, in dicating that she was In distress.
