ARMEnS HOLD BACK
Wheat Is Not Being Offered
Freely at Present.
MARKET ON FIRM BASIS
Export Flour Trade Is Slow, nut
May Revive Soon -Oregon Prunes
Rejected in the East General
Declines In Provisions.
An Inereaainj amount of business i re
ported In the wheat market, bat the activity
usual at this time of year la lacking, owing
to the firm holding of growers. The mar
ket was quoted firm yesterday with dealings
In club wheat reported on the basis of 85c
track here: Trading In the coarse grains
wss light.
The export flour market continues In an
unsatisfactory condition. Some Inquiries are
coming forward from the Orient, but no
business of Importance has been worked
lately. Financial conditions in China and
Japan are Riven as the reason for the In
activity. The latest mall advices from the
other side indicate that stocks are much
deploted. and now that there are signs of
Improvement In the silver market, it Is
hoped there will be a revival of buying by
the Asiatics. Australian- flour will not be
In .competition with the; American product
this season and what buying the Orientals
do will have to be on this Coast. It Is also
very probable they will have to pay prices
much better than those they turned down
earlier In the season.
ORKCrON PRUNES IX EASTERN MARKET
Soma Rejections Owing to Condition and
Count.
A New York letter received by a local
Jobber yesterday said of Oregon prunes In
that market:
"There have been many cars of Oregon
prunes rejected here, the trouble being their
condition on arrival. Some of them came
In In moldy condition, which we consider
was caused by early shipment, the prune
not being Surtlciently cured. A few were
rejected owing to count. Taking Into .con
sideration the financial situation, we can see
nothing In sight that will cause the market
to advance."
Of the situation as regards California
prunes, the latest Issue of the New York;
.Journal of Commerce says:
"An unsettling factor In the spot situa
tion is the pressure In some quarters to
clean up balances of lOOtt crop prunes. The
goods are more or less out of condition.
Some of them were euphonistically described
by a broker as having "feathers' on them.
Consequently the prices made by the sell
ers have to ba very low. and such quotations
have a tendency to affect the good fruit.
Nevertheless, the market for the -latter has
a Arm undertone, as the supply Is moderate
and there Is every Indication of a good de
mand during the Spring months. "Advices
from the Coast retted a firmer feeling there,
in the closing days of December quite a
number, of cars of Santa Clara were sold
for January shipment at -considerable con
cession from the then nominal f. -. b. bag
basis of 4UHc, some as low as 3c
basis It is Understood that this business
' cleaned up a number of weak holdings, leav
ing the balance- of the Coast stock In strong
hands. A telegram received from one of
these yesterday quoted 1!4C 1. 6. b. bag basis
on :Wia to 70s inclusive, in assortments, and
It Is now held to be .extremely doubtful If
anything better could "be done."

Poultry Firm and Eggs Weak.
. Receipts of poultry were fairly large yes
terday, but the demand was strong enough
te take up all the offerings at firm prices.
There Is some uncertainty as to the "course
of the market during the remainder of the
week. .
The tone of the egg market was generally
easy' because of slow buying, thou&h there
was no accumulation of stoclf on the street.
Dressed meats were scarce Tand firm. Veal
was In particularly strong demand and on
fancy offerings 10c was quoted. ft
No changes were reported In the butter
market.
California Orange Output lighter.
The latest news from California Is that
the navel orange season will end sooner than
expected. The crop is coming down lighter
than last year. In spite of the better show
ing It made at the start and the increased
acreage. The shortage Is attributed to the
lack of rain. This In the occasion of the
firmness of the California orange market,
which has been communicated to the trade
all over the country. In the local market
supplies at present are good and the demand
la strong. Among yesterday's fruit arrivals
was a shipment of 1000 boxes of Japanese
oranges.
Onion Market Stronger.
. The onion market showed much firmness
yesterday all along the Coast. With sup
plies light at San Francisco, a sharp ad
vance w as rucorded. and dealers In the local
ncld advanced their bids lOc to Jl.So for
rancy lots. Growers were not ready sellers.

TAKING OF PROFITS
Speculative Realizing Weak
ens the Stock Market.
TRADING NOT SO .BRISK
Conservative Attitude Is Shown
Toward Previous Day's Advance.
Northern Pacific Dividend
Rumors Xot Confirmed. '
NEW YORK, Jan. 7- There was a con
traction of business In stocks at the Stock
Exchange today and the market gave other
Indications of a conservative attitude
toward the advance which, came Into play
yesterday. Active profit-taking -was pur
sued where price advances had proceeded
far enough to make this attractive.
In a group of high-priced stocks, in whlen
purely speculative accounts are at all times
email, on account of the large sums re
quired to operate them, . there were some
striking advances. Stocks of this class suf
fered most severely In the ruthless liquida
tion of the last few months. Usually they
are supported by buying orders In sufficient
volume to protect their security as collat
eral. 'When the panic ruled, however, all
necessary safeguards were swept away and
prices dropped away many points at a time
on marketing of small supplies. Now that
the strain of such selling is past. It Is found
possible to mark, the prices upward by suc
cessive bids with great facility. There is
much, reconstructive- work of this "kind to
be done in the market and the clearing of
the financial skies is being availed of to
perfect it. The buoyant appearance given
to the market by striking1 advances is of
great service in sustaining speculative con
fidence in the pushing of operations for the
rise In stocks of which the supply is much
more liberal and which are at all times
much more active.
In these the effect of "the freer market
supply was obvious today In noldlng- back
the prices while the inactive specialties were
rising buoyantly. The evidence of selling; to
take profits when any sustaining influence
in the market offered favorable opportunity
created some suspicion of the rise in prices
which has occurred . and of the ' reports
which have been put In circulation to ac
count for it.
Professions were stilt made today of en
tire confidence that the extra dividend on
Northern Pacific had been determined upon,
although it was admitted that a meeting In
tended to act on the matter had been post
poned. No official information could be se
cured. and the subject was thus kept within
the realm of speculative chances. The stock
was quite steadily sold all day. with ulti
mate decisive effect on the tone of the whole
market.
Evidence of the rapid improvement of the
stock situation continued to manifest them
selves, but they Tere not so stimulating to
the supec-ulatlon as they were yesterday.
Reports of difficulties In the diamond trade,
although adjusted by a trusteeship, gave
rise to a discussion which pointed to possi
ble mercantile embarrassments In other di
rections. The increasing; demand for- commercial
paper furnished one of the possible safe
guards against such difficulties, and its de
velopment, therefore, is watched with satis
faction. The present reflux of Interior "bank funde
to New York bank: depositories, which has
set In In a plentiful stream, is evidence that
the loaning capacity' of banks making the
deposits la not Impaired and the available
credits of the New York central reserve
banks are greatly expanded by It. This is
by reason of the provision of the banking
law, which permits National banks outside
the reserve centers to count as reserve a
portion of their cash kept on deposit in the
reserve and central reserve centers. The
surrender of this privilege In the panicky
calling home of bank deposits from the re
serve cities was the most demoralizing fac
tor In the crisis, and the repair now going
on is fast removing' the most serious cause
of restriction of credit facilities..
The speculative realizing; proved the dom
inant factor in th,e day's market and the
stocks that were most active showed a ma
jority of declines at the end of the. day.
Rumors of an intended application for a re
ceiver for one of the smaller Western grain
carrying railroads was a factor in the late
reaction In the market.
Bonds were strong. Total sales, par value,
$3.32.000.
XTnited -States 4s coupons advanced 1
per cent on call.

NO TRACE -OF EDMONDS
Laxity of Police Allows Suspected
. Murderer to Escape.
Inquest into the death of L. C. Ruhl,
who died at the Good Samaritan Hospi
tal on Monday from the effects of a
heating received on the night . of De
cember 30, was held yesterday by Cor
oner FInley, and it waa : found that
Ruhl had come to his death from
wounds inflicted by a person believed
to be Claude Edmonds, a negro lodger
in the house conducted by Ruhl at 122
North Seventh street. To preclude any
possibility of doubt that Ruhl had died
from these wound's, a post-mortem ex
amination was held and it was defi
nitely established that death resulted
from blows received on the head.
Although several witnesses were ex
amined, the only one who gave any
direct- evidenbe bearine; on the identity
of the man who killed Ruhl or the
cause of the killing was Thomas J.
Green, a negro who occupied the room
next to Ruhl. Green made clear that
the cause of the killing-, instead of
being; for robbery, as was at first
thought, was trouble with Edmonds
about a woman, known only .as Adine.
Edmonds, if found, will have to face
a charge of murder. After the assault
he was not seen again at the lodging
house. Xt was rumored that he liad
been seen in South Portland four days
after the affair happened, but' this ap
parently had no foundation, as the po
lice since Ruhl's death have failed to
get any trace of Edmonds. Some of
the lodgers In. the house believe that
Edmonds left the city at once.
According to. the witnesses In tne
case,, the police were notified on the
night of the assault, and Detectives
Kay and Kelnlen assigned to the case.
So far as has been made public by the
police; no effort was made by them to
apprehend Edmonds on the night of
the complaint. Ruhl remained in his
house until Thursday, when he was
taken to the hospital, having been un
conscious most of the time. The police
have no explanation . to offer for the
fact that no arrest was made on the
night of December SO, and the fact that
Ruhrs condition was not watched.
When the announcement of his death
was made, .search was instituted for
Edmonds, but there seems little pros
pect of his being apprehended.

WHEAT LOWER ABROAD
BEClINES IN EUROPE ' CAUSE
SELLING AT CHICAGO.
Market Weakened by Argentine Ad
vices of an Abundant Yield.
Advance In Corn.
CTTTCAGO. Jan. 7. ;Th wheat market
opened quite firm, owing, to a one penny
advance at Liverpool, but a sharp decline
later at Liverpool caused a slump In the
local market before the end of the erst hour.
The market continued weak the remainder
of the' day. The fact that all of the Euro-
pean markets for wheat were weak was
mainly responsible for. the liberal sales by
prominent holders, which depressed prices
here. The market was further weakened by
Argentine advices which reiterated ' former
claims of an abundant yield. The close was
weak. May. opened a shade to c
higher at $1,071 1.07. sold off to 81.06
and closed at Sl.OtJU 0 1.08
The corn market was strong almoet all
day. There was a slight reaction during the
first half hour, owing to selling based on
liberal receipts, but the market soon be
came firm again and continued strong up to
the olose. Firm cables, small primary re
ceipts, strength of the cash grain and a re
port that the Argentine crop is threatened
by locusts were principal bullish Influences.
May corn opened unchanged to & &o
higher af8161c to 61 c. sold to 61 hio
and then advanced to 61c. The close was
at 61ttS61o.
(Trading In oats was very quiet and the
market was firm in sympathy with corn. A
large Increase In local stock caused soma
selling by cash hou&es. May oats opened
a snaae to & e Higher at 54 54 Tic.
