Has FOLLOWS CUT IN PRICES Steamer Xumantia Will Carry 3 5, 0 00 Barrels Direct to' Vladivos tok and Newchwang Wheat Is Quiet, but Steady. An indication that the long-expected opening up of the Oriental flour demand is at hand was given yesterday when the Port land & Asiatic Steamship. Company an nounced that the steamer Numantla, sailing; from Portland March 13 on her next trip out, would take 35,000 barrels of flour to Vladivostok and 1O.000 barrels to New chwang. These are not the- company's regu lar ports of call, but the change In route Is made possible by the large size of the North China flour orders, together with the light ness of business with the usual Japan and South China ports. This announcement fol lows the cut of 20 cents per barrel made by local exporters last week in export flour quotations. There are inquiries from other Asiatic points which are expected to devel op into actual business soon. All domestic grades of flour were lowered yesterday from S to 15 cents per barrel. The wheat market was quiet and steady and no resumption of activity Is probable until the foreign markets take a decisive turn for the better. The record-breaking shipments from South America continue to exert an adverse Influence on European price, but it Is thought the floodtlde of the movement Is now passing, and with the decline In United States exports as shown In this week's statistics, and the insignifi cant shipments from other countries, wheat values may soon react. Should a bull cam paign be launched soon, as is probable the diminished reserves In this country would prove one of the strongest factors. The great Increase this week in ' quantities on passage, which has had a depressing effect on all markets Is shown by the following statistics of the merchants' exchange.

Very little business was reported in the hop marts yesterday and as growers -were offering f'eelii; the market was considered very 1? -at. Cables reported the London market duM with 't downward tendency. McKlnley Mltr.heM in the last few days has bought 800 baler on Eastern account at 6 to 514 rents. Among the purchases last week by Henry I Bern's, of Aurora, for London, vere the following lots: H. J. Johnson, 67 bales; CarcSthers, lot of 4 bales: A j A. Crlssel, 350 bales; the Carlton lot. Mount Angel, 61 bfales; Woodcox lot, Woodburn. 40 bales; Silvester lot. Wood burn. 17 bales. Complete figures are available on the un sold supply of Yakima hops which show 530 ba.es of 1907 and2409 bales of old in growers' hands. Atxvut 4000 bales of, all kinds are In Westery Washington.

The production of butter the past two months has been exceedingly light, and stocks now re 1,000,000 pounds less than on the same data last year. Butter will not be flush until June, and evidently a, big shortage will exist In March. April and May. The high price of feed and the laws curtailing oleomargarine are held by this Arm to be responsible. PROnrtE RECEIPTS ARB LARGER. Good Market on Front Street for Southern Arrivals. Produce receipts yesterday included three cars of -oranges and a car each of grape fruit. 1,0a Angeles cauliflower, San Francisco vegetables, sweet potatoes and celery. An other car of cauliflower Is due today and two cars of bananas are promised for to morrow in good green condition. The car of celery arrived In bad order and was rejected. The other vegetables were in good shape nd cleaned up well. The grapefruit was distributed along the street. Oranges are quoted firmer here and !n the South. The onion market had an easy -tone, both locally and at other points on the Coast. Arrivals of Eastern onions In the California cities and at Seattle was given as the rea son. Potatoes were dull and weak. Eggs Half a Cent Lower. The egg market Is gradually falling to a lower level aa a result of lighter buying by Puget Sound merchants. Front-street quota tions yesterday were 22ttiZ3H cents. Poultry receipts were small and prices more or less nominal. The butter trada was steady at previous prices. PORTLAND QtOTATIOJtB. Grain.

PROSPECTS FOR- TRADE Operations in Stocks in Accordance With This Sentiment Check to Inflow of Banking funds. NEW TORK. Feb. IT. Dullness and de pression overhung the stock market today. The active operations which prompted price declines were largely at the hands of profes sionals of the room-trading class. The senti ment which prompted their attitude was, however, quite generally prevalent and was a fair reflection of the unfavorable Interpreta tion placed on the Immediate events In the financial district and the lack of hopefulness of early betterment. Much had been hoped from the successful mle of the New York City bonds as a stimulating force In the securities market. Today confirmed the impression of Saturday that the event had fallen flat. The Impression was heightened by the action of the bonds themselves, which are dealt "when lued" at the stock ex change. The price reacted more than a point from the flrst quotations In the new securities made on Saturday, and the older issue of city bonds fell back In company. There were some special Incidents in the day's happening which had a disturbing ef fect on speculative sentiment. New force was given to the fear of the Government's prosecution of the Harriman railroad group by the steps taken against the Southern Pa cific for rebating offenses. The copper se curities. Including American Smelting, were under special pressure in eonnection with sharp declines iri the price of copper, both here and In London. Gloomy reports were current of the copper trade outlook. Discussion of the trade outlook In general took the form of some criticism of the ten dency of the great trade combinations, es pecially In steol. to hold up prices, the ques tion being raised whether revival of con sumptive demand wouM not thereby be de ferred and the depression prolonged. The report of the net earnings of the Erie for the December quarter, showing the previous year's surplus converted Into a heavy deficit, ex plained the past weakness In the securities of that company. Railroad traffic officials, in their usua.1 weekly statements of views for publication, were not reported In a cheerful strain over the present state of affairs or the promise for the Immediate future. The apparent check to the inflow of bank ing funds from the Interior, evidenced by the last two bank statements, is arousing some discussion and seems to negative the assump tions held at one time as to the extent which reserves would pile up in New York after the panic had subsided. The replenishment of the deficit of reserves here, the withdrawal of Government deposits by the United States Treasury and the rapid rate of re tirement of National bank notes have helped to take up the alack as the return tide flowed In, but no gold has gone out- In export. The foreign trade statement for January shows. In fact. the excess value of exports of merchandise reached a total of upwards of $120,000,000, thus exceeding even the record of $115,000,000 shown In December. The sustained control of international exchange held by New York is thus explained. Some of the day's depression came from foreign Influences. . The Macedonian ques tion, an important failure of a Scotch en gineering firm apd professed spprehenston over the relations between the United States and Japan were among these. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $3,332,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Low. Bid. Sales. High.
