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.

SALES BY FARMERS
Produce Trade Again Takes
Up Peddling Problem.
OLD METHODS OUTGROWN
Front-Street Association at Annual
Sleeting Elects Officers for the
Year The-Onion Market
Holds Firm.
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.

BDNDS ARE II DEMAND
ENCOURAGING ELEMENT IX THE
FIN'A.VCIAIj SITUATION.
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.

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-
