Newspaper Page TextTHE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 13, 'I90S. 15 ARCTIC STREAM IS WITHOUT A CARGO Vessel Chartered on a Specu lation by Griffith, Williams & Co., of London. THREE CANCELING DATES Hate Given in the Charter-Party Is 31 Shillings 6 Pence for Wheat and On Shilling More for flour Kecharter Offered. Griffith, Williams & Co., of Ixmdon. stand to lose several dollars on the ship Arctic Stream, now at anchor in Portland harbor. The vessel came in cargo from Rotterdam and was under charter to the English firm to- load wheat or flour out at Sis 6d for the former and 32s 6d for the latter. The vessel had three cancel ing dates and arrived in February the fig ures for which are as stated. Griffith, Williams & Co. had secured no cargo for the vessel and she has a charter and no one to load her. ' The Arctic Stream was evidently taken on speculation when there was a big de mand for ships and both wlieat and char ters were high. The financial flurry put a stop to chartering and many of the speculators, both In ships and cargoes, were caught short. The ship was offered yesterday to local shippers for a figure in the neighborhood of 28s, but at the hour when the offices closed she had not been fixed. It is probable that she will be taken and load ed by the Portland Flouring Mills .Com pany, or that firm will sell Griffiths, Williams & Co. a cargo outright for the vessel. TUG SERVICE IS GOOD NOW Captain Kennealy Says There Has Been Great Improvement at Bar. Captain Kcnnealy, master of the Brit ish bark Jordanhill, which arrived In the river Sunday from Callao, made a smart run up from the South American port. He made the lightship In 46 days. As it was blowing hard from the southeast and was hazy Captain Kennealy stood off shore. H4 came up again Sunday and was towed In. The master is enthusiastic over the manner In which lie was handled by the tugboat. In speaking of the serv ice. Captain Kennealy said: "The Waiiula picked me un close to 12 miles outside the lightship. Captain Reed could not make me out and I thought his amoko was from some coasting steam er. He had a line on board fully two hours before I had expected to signal. I have heard many complaints of the tug boat dervico both while here last Summer 'Ki pini-e mil 11 hji siupH are nanaiea as well as we, there Is nothing wrong with th service.' The Jordanhill will load heavy timbers at Unnton for Europe. VERSAILLES CARRIES WHEAT Vroneh Bark Clears lor Orders. Exports Exceed Million Bushels. . The French bark .Versailles cleared yes terday for the United Kingdom with lVi,Ui bushels of wheat, valued at JlOii.oSS. The clearance of the Versailles brings the ex ports for February -well above the 1,000,000 bushel mark. The Tweeddalo will finish today and a 'number of other craft will round out the week. During the first 12 days in January a little mora than 75O.O0O bushels had been set afloat. There is plenty of tonnage in the river to keep up the present gait and the second month of the last half of the cereal year will surpass January for ex portations.

At the annual meeting of the Produce Merchants' Association of Portland, the fol lowing officers were elected for the ensuing year: President. TV. B. Glafke. ' Vice-president, George L. "Davenport. Treasurer, H. C. Thompson. The board of directors includes the above officers and George H. Pearson and John A. Bell. The annual reports of the officers were read, which showed the association to be In a healthy condition. Much time was spent in discussing current masters of importance to the trade and a growing spirit of har mony is noticeable In the workings of the association. Among the subjects discussed at the meet ing was the peddling by farmers of sup plies throughout the city. This has for years demoralized prices and interfered with the retail grocery trade, and tne opinion was expressed that the matter should be regu lated by city ordinance, as Is done in other cities. When Portland was a smaller town, the wholesalers and retailers were not af fected by unlicensed peddling by farmers. but the produce business has attained such proportions now that It requires regulation. in the opinion of the members of the as sociation. In other cities where the produce trade Is a leading factor in the cities' commercial affairs, the farmers take their fruit and veg etables to the public market for sale, and after certain hours only are allowed to peddle their unsold produce where they wllL This course would be satisfactory to the farmers In this neighborhood If the public market were put In working order, but as things are now conducted their only outlet Is the Front-street trade, and the traffic congestion there frequently makes It difficult for them to transact business. The Produce Merchants' Association, therefore, has a rather difficult problem to solve. SALES OF ONIONS ARK REPORTED. Renewed- "Demand in View of Firmness of San Francisco Market. There is more activity in the onion mar ket In consequence of the improvement in conditions at San Francisco. A few cars were reported sold yesterday, and as the growers refused to give way In their ideas, the buyers have to come up to the price asked, $2.50 per hundred. No business below this quotation was possible. A San Fran cisco wire reported that market very firm with best grades quoted at 3 cents. As very little Btock is rolling southward It Is likely the strength of the market will be main tained. The situation in the Middle West, from whence ft considerable number of .cars have been drawn this Winter by the Pacific Coast trade, is thus summarized by the Chicago Packer: Although nothing sensational has devel oped in the market here for red end yellow onions, there Is a. good outside demand and stocks appear to be well cleaned up. That is, good, sound, warehouse stock that has been -properly cared for. Red and yellow stock rules about 60 to G5 cents per bushel In a local way, but carlot shipments to outside points have been made at a higher figure. White onions are quoted from 70 to 75 cents per bushel. Despite the fact that onions were reported to be about cleaned up In this territory two or three weeks ago, it seems that several cars of stock bob up here and there that prove these early reports about stocks be ing exhausted were not correct. However, it appears to be true that onions In North western territory are pretty well out of the way. The trade here Is watching with Interest for Bermuda onions from the Salton Sea district of California, and If there is a heavy early movement from 'that territory It is believed that It will have an important bearing both on the old onion situation as well as the Texas crop of Bermuda onions. HOPS BOUGHT FOR LONDON SHIPMENT Practically No Buying Now on Eastern Account. Hop Buying on Eastern account has nearly ceased, but a little export business is under way.' John Carmichael baa been operating in the sllverton section, where he bought the Whltlock lot of S7 bales, the Eggert lot of 60 bales and a number of other small lots, all at 6 cents. The subject that is now of most Interest to growers and dealers alike is what pro portion of the Oregon acreage will be cul tivated in the coming season. Reports are coming In from various quarters that farm ers are preparing to plow up their yards or a part of them, while many others who will cultivate will do so without any certainty .thnt they wlil gather the crop. It Is prob able that between now and the beginning of plowing season. many- of the Oregon growers will decide definitely whether or not they will remain In the business, and their determination will hinge on the condi tion of the market in the meantime and the prospects. As for the outlook now.-rft must be acknowledged that it Is discour aging.. . .. "Northern Orders for Eggs. Puget Sound buying of eggs on Alaska ac count Is all that saves the local market from slumping, as receipts are much be yond the limits of the home demand. Be oause of the Northern purchases, prices held steady yesterday. Poultry arrived freely, especially chickens, but there was a good general Inquiry and values were on a firm basis. A steady tone prevails In the Hitter mar ket on account of the working off of the surplus, which lately depressed country creamery prices. Produce Receipts Delayed. A considerable quantity of produce north bound was delayed between Ashla'nd and Portland yesterday, and consequently there were no receipts during the day. Among the overdue arrivals which are looked for today are two cars of assorted vegetables, one car of celery and two cars of oranges. A good miscellaneous stock was on hand, how ever, and business was of fair proportions. Prices generally were unchanged. Changes in Cereal Goods. A sharp reduction was announced yester day in a number of farinaceous lines. Rolled oats were reduced $1 per barrel; steel-cut. oatmeal 50 cents per barrel, and ground oat meal the same. Flaked oats in cases of 36 2s were reduced from $3.25 to $2.75 per case. Oat flakes and wheat flakes were cut 25 cents Pastry flour' Is 23 to 50 cen.ts lower. Split peas are up 25 cents and pearl barley 50 cents per hundred. Bank Clearings. Clearings of the Northwestern cities yes terday were as follows: Clearings. Balances.

Stock Market Shows Strong Resis tance at All Times to Unfa vorable Trade News. Henry Clews, of New York, writes of the situation In Wall street, under date of Feb ruary S as follows: The stock market shows surprising re sistance to unfavorable news. Unusual trade reaction, declining railroad earnings and di minishing profits would ordinarily exercise a more or less depressing effect upon values; but In spite of these conditions, prices have been well maintained, partly owtyig to con tinued ease in money, partly because un favorable developments have ,been well dis counted, and partly because the market has had the support of powerful Interests. The most encouraging element in the financial situation is the continued demand for bonds, showing that there are funds awaiting In vestment and that safety Is Just now a more Important factor than price. Among large holders there is the hope that present business depression will not. last long In Its present stage of acuteness. Already many concerns which had previously shut down are restarting, and with the approach of Spring further Improvement In this direction rhould follow. It was this expectation which led the United States Steel Coraoratlon. not to reduce prices. Before long- construction work will be resumed, and the improved ability of the railroads to finance Issues which wore held up during the last three months of 1907 encourages the expectation of recovery in demand for iron and steel from railroad and other corporations. General business Is now going through a similar process of readjustment to that which has occurred on the Stock Exchange. There is this difference, however. In the stock market the readjustment is prac tically finished and stocks have recovered to a normal basis. In general business the readjustment Is not yet complete. and naturally progresses more slowly. Neverthe less, there has beeii a marked curtailment In the Droduct - of many articles of mer chandise and commodity prices generally are lower. Whether the decline has reached Its limit or not. events .only can determine. This return, however.' of the commodity markets to more normal conditions is a wholesome symptom, and will doubtless hasten a return of natural Industrial .activi ties. As soon as confidence revives, which is a matter of time, business will be helped toward a fresh start by a reduction In the coats of production. On the Stock Ex change there has-been slight weakness at times, and there Is more or less disposition to take profits. ' The general market, however. Is In an exceptionally safe and sound condition, fol lowing the drastic liquidation of 1007. Weak snots have been thoroughly elimi nated, and on all marked declines the bet ter class shares will prove a good purchase. PORTLAND IJVESTOCK MARKET.

CITY TO BUY AMBULANCE Council, in a Generous Mood, Passes Half-Forgotten Measure. After bickering for years, the City Council yesterday, in a sudden fit of generosity, appropriated the sum required for the purchase of an ambulance for the city's use Called forth from a com mittee pigeon-hole, where it bad elum 'bered for fully a year, an old resolution, introduced by Councilman .Baker, bobbed up yesterday afternoon to again demand attention. It appeared so sudden that the Council passed it without much discus sion. Portland has never had a public ambu lance, and the lack of such a conveyance has subjected th,e police to endless an noyance and has made It impossible for the officials to handle, accident cases in anything likS the proper manner. Patients have hitherto been carried to the various hospitals in the patrol wagon, which is in no wise equipped for such service. The ambulance authorized yesterday will be used by the pojice in all emer gency cases. It Is the first step toward an emergency hospital, which is also urg ently needed. This matter, however. Is now pending before a Joint committee of the Council and the County Commission- DAILY CITY STATISTICS Building Permits.
