RATE'-IS TOO
Prevents Shipments of Oregon
Potatoes to Southwest.
LOWER TARIFF ASKED FOR
Good Markets for Orcgxin Surplus ol
Railroads IVould Make Tem
porary Reduction in
I'rclgiit Rates.
There la a. market for OrCRon's blB sur
plus of potatoes In the Southwestern States,
but the present freight rates prohibit the
shipment of any lame quanlty to that sec
tion. If the railroad companies could be
Induced to lower the rate from 75 to SO
cents to Texas as well as Missouri River
points. It would mean a bis; movement from
'Oregon. It Is understood that some of the
shippers have taken up this matter 1 with
the railroad officials. Something might also
be gained if the large potato farmers would
try the effect of their Influence on the' rail
road companies. This Is a matter of vital
Importance to Oregon, for unless something
la done several thousand cars of potatoes
will bs left unsold In this state. The Colo
rado producers were helped by the railroads
In this way a few years ago when that
state had a large oversupply and by means
of a reduced rate was enabled to make large
shipments of potatoes Into this section.
'Should the railroad companies grant
such a reduction in freight rates," said
George L Burtt. the local representative of
I Sratena Co., of San Francisco, yes
terday, "It would permit at least 2000 cars
of Oregon potatoes to go to the Eastern and
Southwestern markets. This would relieve
the situation greatly and the farmers would
obtain better prices for the remainder of
their stocks."
Shipments are being made from Idaho
Falls to Kansas City and other Missouri
River points and to Texas Idaho Falls has
about 2iV0 cars 'of potatoes to ship, and
with a 80-cent rate to Texas in effect will
probably move all of them. In pregon there
are close to 4O0O cars of potatoes remaining
and Yakima has 20O0 cars, very few of
which will find a satisfactory market un
less the railroads help.
Not much relief is looked for from the
San Francisco market this eason. The Bay
City is glutted with Salinas and until the
Southern California stock Is cleaned up the
demand for Oregons will be limited. It is
estimated that 200,000 sacks of faltnas,
Iximpoc and such potatoes are still unsold
and the supply will last until the middle of
April or the first of May. About 700,000
sacks of California rivers are yet to be
disposed of and these come Into direct com
petition with the lower-grade Oregon pota
toes, and sell at 35 to 65 cents a hundred
delivered in Kan Francisco.
There is no market there for Garnet
Chiles for seed purposes, but there may be
some demand 'later. 'There is a limited Los
Angeles demand for Oregon Early Rose
which are worth around To cents here. For
Burbanks, local shippers are paying 10 to
60 cents.
More Trading In Hop.
A considerable movement In the hop
market was noted yesterday, most of the
business being between dealers. Some sales
of what now gTade as choice hops were
made at 54 cents. McKlnley Mitchell, since
the first -of the week,. has bought 300 bales
at 5 to 56 - cents. The fieavey Hop Com
pany In January bought 2O0O bales, one of
the .latest purchases of the Arm being the
Tim Fennell'. lot of 203 bales at Independ
ence. ' Farm Produce Is glow.
A good demand for fat hens was the only
feature of the poultry market yesterday.
Arrivals of this class were light and prices
were firmer. Other klirds of poultry
dragged.
Eggs were quoted weak and very slow at
24 to 25 cents.
The butter market was, steady to firm
with no new developments.
Eastern Oregon Apples Coming.
A car of Eastern Oregon apples will ar
rive today and will be the first fruit from
that section put on sale this season. A car
of tangerines, a car of celery, two cars of
cauliflower and one of sweet potatoes are
also due. There were no arrivals yesterday,
but the street was well supplied with mis
cellaneous produce and trade' was good.
Change In Sugar Price.
There was an advance yesterday of 5
cents per hundred on all grades of refined
sugar except the new "blank" grade, which
was reduced IS cents to a parity with beet
sugar.

LIGHT ON THE BANKS
Detailed Returns Will Here

NEW CLEARING-HOUSE PLAN
No Opportunity for Confcislon or
Concealment of the Real Bank
ing Position In New York; '
Stock Market Stagnant.
NKW YORK. Feb. 7. Heaviness" nd al
most total stagnation continued the char
acteristics ot all departments of the se
curities market today. There was no evi
dence of any participation In the dealings
outside the narrow professional circles
which trade habitually without regard to
developments affecting properties, the shares
of which are bonght and sold.
The prospect for growing attention to tha
political canvass and tha fear that oratory
and discussion at that time would turn
largely on abuses of speculation and de
nunciation of the speculative world were
the subject matter of much of the current
talk In the neighborhood of the Stock Ex
change and the fears of a repressive effect
on business there was an element in the
neglect of the market. Another was the
coming resumption tomorrow of the de
tailed bank statement showing condition
of tha individual blanks, which has been In
abeyance ever since the decision to issue
clearjng-house loan certificates at the time
of the panic.
Additional Importance is given - to this
resumption by. the beginning of weekly
statements of condition of o-ther banks and(
trust companies in New York to be given'
out without the regular bank statement,
which will commence tomorrow. Another
Important departure determined on by the
authorities Is to supplement the statement
tn the former form of the dally average of
the various Items of the clearing-house
banks with another form embracing the
actual Items at the close of business on
Friday. The statement of averages has
been upheld by the banking authorities as
a trustworthy Index of the real condition,
but the vagaries caused in the- end-week
showing, especially by throwing over the
effects of Important operations of one week
into another week's showig. have caused
growing criticism in the larger financial
world. The new system will apply tha
needed corrective.
Much mora important as a sourca of il
lumination, however, will be the Inclusion
of the trust companies and outside banks
In the weekly reports of the banking posi
tion. The growth of the aggregate deposits
of the trust companies of late years to a
total almost as great as those of tha clearing-house
members and the entry of those
InRtltutlons more and more Into the field of
actual banking business has made the old
clearing-house bank statement growingly in
adequate as a true showing of tha banking
position. Tomorrow there is to be tha old
form of statement of clearing-house bank
averages, a statement of actual ltema of
members, one of th average of other banks
and trust companies In Greater New York
and an aggregate average for all the insti
tutions. With such a weekly exhibit com
ing from the clearing-house, there wilj never
be again opportunity for confusion or con
cealment of the actual banking position in
New York City. It Is probable that eome
degree of final preparation for complying
with the new showing has entered Into the
week's operations and was accountable-for
some closing up of loans and occasional
weakness In securities which figured as col-,
lateral. The few stocks which showed
movement In today's market were influenced
by special causes.
The contraction of operations in the bond
market has become marked and the tone to
day was irregular. Heaviness in the New
York City 4H was associated with next
week's proposed sale of a new issue of
$50,000,000 city bonds. Total sales, par
value, $t.&6a.OO0t. United States bonds
were unchanged on call.

Hi THE RIGHT DIM
SOME PROGRESS IX THE COM
MERCIAL SITUATION.
But Purchasers in All Id ties Act
jWith Much Caution rPig Iron
Buying Small.
NEJW YORK, Feb. 7. R. G. Dun A Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say:
Little change appears in the commercial
situation, but progress is in the right direc
tion, insofar as any difference can be dis
cerned. Recent gains are maintained In al
most every Instance and a few more encour
aging symptoms appear, notably the smaller
decreases In railway earnings and larger
forces at work in leading Industries. Whole
sale and Jobbing houses prepare for the future
most . .conservatively. Mercantile collections
are irregular, some districts reporting fairly
prompt settlements, but at other points pay
ments are slow.
On the whole, the iron and steel industry is
in a better position than a week 'ago. al
though new contracts are placed with much
caution and each order Is the object of ex
tensive negotiations. Business that appeared
several weeks ago Is still pending, and buy
ers have been able to secure more quantities
of pig Iron at fair reductions.
COUNTRY MERCHANTS BUY SPARINGLY
Commodity Prices, as a Whole. Are Irreg
ular. .
NEW YORK. Feb. 7. Bradstraefs tomor
row will say:
"While retail trade in some lines of wear
ing apparel has been helped by the coldest
cr stormiest weather of the Winter, other
branches of trade, mduetry and transporta
tion have been Interfered with 1 sufficiently
to make the week as a whole a rather quiet
one the country over.. Wholesale and Joh
tlng trade has been rather quiet and while
there are signs that improvement along
conservative lines Is making progress, the
caution as regards Spring buying is as
marked as ever and the country merchants'
policy, even when the most active buying
Is noted, is in the direction of small and
frequent rather than, large purchases.
"Commodity prices, as a whole, arc Ir
regular, grain quotations rally from the
depression of last month, but other lines
showing little strength and this week some
metals, provisions and cotton are lower,
with most other lines displaying a weak
tone. Raw wool soles are largely at con
cessions. Collections show little improve
ment. "Buying If Dig Iron is of the small lot
character, but In the aggregate It Is of
fair proportions. However, the price situa
tion Is weaker 'and especially In the 4'entral
West. Bar Iron is up $2 per ton. Demand
for structural material is fair, but certain
firms have shaded prices in order to stimu
late business. Prices on elate are also
lower, the concessions being offered by the
less Important makers.
"Business failures In the United States for
the week ending February 6 number 272.
against 859 last week. 188 In the like week
of 1M07.
"Wheat. Including flour, exports from
the United States and Canada for the week
ending February 6 aggregated 4.507.45
bushels, against 3.310.830 this week last
year. For the 32 weeks of the fiscal year
the exports are 144,566.682 bushels, against
113,383,612 in 1906 and 1807."

WHEAT WORKING UP
Market Strong in Spite of Big
Argentine Shipments.
ONE-CENT GAIN AT CHICAGO
Canadian Government Reported to
1 Hare Bought 1,000,000 Bush
els of American Wheat
. for Seeding: Purposes.
CHICAGO, Feb. 7. Wheat waa strong all
day. with the exception of slight weakness
at the opening, due to enormous shipments
from Argentina, total exports for the week
from that country being 316.000 bushels in
excess of last, week's record-breaking ship
ment. A strong market for wheat at Winni
peg and the report that the Canadian gov
ernment had 'bought nearly 1,000.000 bushels
of American wheat for seeding purposes were
the principal bullish Influences. The market
closed strong. May opened unchanged to
Lc lower at 979714c. advanced to Mc
and closed at 9814 c.
Corn was strong all day. The small move
ment Constituted the main source of the
strength. Oats were firm and provisions were
rather weak because of liberal recett,'ts -of
live hogs.
