NOCHANGEFORRiSE
Holders of Stocks Prefer to
Reduce Commitments.
MONEY OUTLOOK DUBIOUS
Amalgamated Copper Affected by
Humor of Selling Arrangement.
Further Drain by Franca
. on the Gold Supply.
NEW YORK, July 8- Some of the factors
In the financial situation evidently appealed
to speculative sentiment today as containing
hazardous elernents which served as an ad
monition to reduction of commitments in
stock. Between a few stocks that were
strong and a few others that were actively
weak, the general list was almost passive
and was pulled this way and that In sym
pathy with the movement In the active
stocks that happened to be dominant at the
time.
Amalgamated Copper and St. Paul were
the most conspicuous In points of strength,
and were supposed to reflect the continuance
of the advertised campaign for advancing
stocks. The advance in Amalgamated Cop
per was accompanied by reports that an
agreement had been reached practically for
sales of copper by the large producers for
early delivery at concessions from the prices
now quoted and which have Induced a
deadlock between buyers and sellers. The
movement in St. Paul was ascribed to a
purpose o further the demand tor the new
stocks of that company, subscription war
rants for which are now quoted in the
market. The recent activities In Union Pa
cific have been imputed In the same way to
a desire to help the demand for the new
convertible bonds, the first 30 per cent In
stallment of subscriptions for which Is pay
able on Wednesday of this week. The fact
that Union Pacific was reactionary today
removed one Important stage in the move
ment for higher prices. United States Steel
stocks were heavy.
The money market position was at the
bottom of the hesitation and Irregularity of
the market as much as any other matter.
The natural inference would be that tha
New York banking surplus was wiped out.
Nevertheless, rates for call loans here re
ceded from the level at the close of last
week.
Japanese 4 per cent bonds declined
while the fours registered dropped '
In this market. The bond market was
Irregular as a whole. Total sales, (1,027,000.
United States twos advanced while the
fours regular declined and the fours
coupon per cent on call.

PRUNE PRICES CLIMBING
MARKET ADVANCES AFTER ORE
GON CROP IS .DISPOSED OF.
Buyers Profit by the Turn of Af
fairs, bat Growers Have Done
Equally as Well.
SALEM, July 8- (Special.) With prac
tically the whole of the Northwest prune
crop sold under advance contracts, the
prunegrowers have seen the market advance
a full cent a pound above the opening prices.
There Is quite a strong probability that the
market will yet reach a full cent above
the average price paid to the growers for
the entire output of the Northwest. Many
contracts were made early In the season at
a basis price of 2V4 cents, and at 2 cents
a large part of the crop changed hands. A
month ago dealers became active and the
price was pushed op to 2 and 8 cents, at
which most of the remaining prunes were
sold. In the past week 34 has been freely
offered, and one large sale was made at
under coidltlbna which It la said will
make the fruit cost the buyer a 8 basis.
It is learned from men who are on close
touch with the market that Z cents can
now be had. Yhe average price secured for
this year's crop is probably a 2 basis, or
a full cent "under the top figures. This
means $20 a ton difference, or, in orchards
that yield two tons to the acre, a differ
ence of 940 an acre. Some growers who
made contracts at 2 cent basis are dis
posed to feel pretty blue over what they
now consider a loss of $20 a ton by reason
of contracting too soon, but moat of them
take the situation philosophically and re
flect that they cannot always hit the mar
ket rlfrht. and if they save a good crop there
mill be a good profit In the fruit at the
price secured. Buyers who made heavy con
tracts at early prices are, of course, highly
pleased over the advance.
The past two season have witnessed
several changes In the plan of selling prunes
in the Northwest. Formerly prices ana con
tracts were made at a basis price for the
four sizes, 60-70, 70-80, 80-00 and 90-100 to
the pound, and a drop of one-half cent was
made for each smaller size. Thus, when
the basis price Is 8 cents, prunes going
60-70 to the pound are worth &. cents,
and those going 40-50 to the pound are
worth 4. Until last year most of the
prunes were sold according to sixes thus
computed, and prunes that would count 47
to the -pound were generally placed in the
40-50 size. Prunes are eold in California by
this method, the "basis" price for the four
sizes being mentioned.
Last year and this year a large propor
tion of the prunes of the Northwest have
been contracted on a different plan. For
example, when the basis price was at
cents, contracts called for the payment of
btt, cents for prunes going 35 to the pound.
This would make a difference of cent
for each additional 10 prunes per pound,
or the game difference that prevailed be
fore. Under the former system there was
eome-times disagreement as to what consti
tuted a 80-40 prune, but generally dealers
agreed to accept those counting 37, though
35 was eounted where no question was
raised. Under the new plan there can be no
question, for there is a break in price on
every prune, rather than every 10 prunes.
Another innovation is being made this
year in the method of testing prunes to as
certain the sise. Heretofore It has been the
practice to make five tests from a load.
weighing out one pound at a time and
counting the number In the pound, then
striking an average of the counts and
placing the whole load at the size shown
by the average. In some Instances half
pound tests were made. Many of the
growers were dissatisfied with, this plan
for obvious reasons. If, In a half-pound
test, the scales were inaccurate to the
amount of even one prune, lt made a dif
ference of two to the pound, or a differ
ence in price of $2 a ton. A number of
growers have this year made a stipulation
that the test shall be by five-pound weights,
believing that the test will be more nearly
accurate. Whether this plan will become
general remains to be seen.
It is frequently asserted that the total
output of prunes in the Northwest this year
will be measured- by the dryer capacity
rather than by the amount produced, for it
Is asserted that the dryers cannot cure ail
that will be grown. The usual June crop
was not as heavy this year as usual for the
reason that the rain came Just at the right
time to make the fruit hang on the trees.
There may be a heavier drop than usual
later In the season, so not much can be
said regarding the size of the crop. Tfie
drying capacity in the Northwest is about
80,000,000 pounds, but estimates of the crop
have not generally been as high as that.
Conditions of cultivation are not quite up
to normal, for the reason that the early
drying of the soli prevented as good plowing
as usual. Later rains may have made up
for this and piacea the crop in as good con
dition as usual at this season.

FRENCH GOLD DEMAND CONTINUES.
Two More Engagements Made for Shipment
to Paris.
NEW YORK, July 8. Ths movement of
gold from this country to France, which ha
been in progress since early In May, was con
tinued today by the engagement by Laxard
Frere of $1,250,000 and by Goldman, Sachs
& Co. of $500,000 for shipment to Paris to
morrow. The exportation of gold la attributed
by the exchange expert to th attempt of the
Bank of France to recuperate its gold reserve,
which has been lessened by the withdrawal
of Russian deposits from Franca. A year
ago the reserve of the Bank of France was
about $585,000,000, but at present lt 1 about'
$30,000,000 less than that amount.
Since April, France has taken about $22,800,
000 from America, while $3,000,000 ha gone
to London and $1,000,000 to Holland. New
York exchange houses express the opinion that
the movement of gold from this country to
France Is likely to continue until the demands
of the Bank of France are satisfied, as that
Institution ta making the shipment of gold
profitable by paying Interest on it while In
transit acroee the ocean. Having one re
established Its reserve at the figure deslsed,
the Bank of France probably will discontinue
such Interest, and the shipment will stop.
BIG WHEAT CROP IN FALOUSE.
Acreage This Year Much Laxger Than
Usual. n
GARFIEJLD, Wash., July 8. (SpecialO
Harvesting in the Palouse country will begin
In two or three weeks. The prospects for a
bumper crop of wheat and oats was never
better. In an interview with State Senator R.
C. McCloskey, the wheat king of the PaJouse
country, whose vast crops make many train-load-
each Fall, he said:
The Fall-sown wheat Is maturing very
satisfactorily and 1 from 15 to 20 per cent
above the average. Spring sowing la not so
good, but with favorable weather conditions
will be up to or above the average. Harvest
will begin In about two weeks. Present Indi
cations are that Fall wheat will yield 30 to
45 bushels per acre, varying according to the
cultivation of Summerfallow ground and the
manner and time of sowing and variety of
wheat sown. The average this year is milch
larger than usual. Fall and Spring grain
are about equally divided.
"Preparations are being made on an exten
sive scale to take car of ths big crop. The
wage will in all probability be high, which
will undoubtedly Invite, aa lt always does,
sufficient labor to take care of the chop In
good shape. No trouble Is anticipated in the
matter of fuel for threshing engines."

OREGON BEING SURVEYED
Government Busy In Making Topo-
graphic Map.
NEW YORK, July 8. The great topo
graphic map of the United States, which
has been part of the work of tha Fed
eral survey since its beginning will be
advanced this season by work in 31
states and four territories. Four states-
Massachusetts, Rhode. Island, Connecti
cut and New Jersey, have already been
completely mapped in co-operation with
the state surveys, leaving unfinished
work In 41 states and six territories.
This great map Is published in sheets
whose printed outlines measure about
14 by 17 inches, the areas represented
being called quadrangles. Each quad
rangle is limited by lines of longitude
and latitude meridians and parallels
and is named from some natural or
other feature with lt (such as a moun
tain range, lake, city or town), and this
name Is applied to both the quadrangle
and the sheet. The scale of these sheets
varies according to the nature of the
region mapped. It may be four miles,
two miles or one mile to the inch, and a
few special maps are published on larger
scales.
These maps, or atlas sheets, are print
ed in three colors; black for the cul
tural features; such as boundary lines,
roads, element of elevation, represented
by contours showing heights abovs sea
level; and blue for the water the riv
ers, lakes and the sea with Its bays and
Inlets.
The topographic work planned for the
coming season is briefly outlined In the
following paragraphs. All the parties
are now In the field and the work is
being vigorously pushed.
An area In Oregon including the Bull
Hun forest reserve and that portion of
the Cascade forest reserve surrounding
