Long-Expected Movement
Opened Up.
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. Is
sued yesterday:

On December 1, 1907, the stocks of butter
In the above houses were 3,500.000 pounds
more than on the same date In 1906. 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.

Wall Street Not Pleased With
Outlook for Future.
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.

BREAKS ON SELLING
Wheat Unloaded Heavily in the
Chicago Market.
CLOSES NEAR THE LOWEST
Weekly Statistics Have a Depressing
Effect on Prices Domestic
News Is Not of an Un
favorable Nature.
CHICAGO. Feb. 17. The wheat market
opened firm on buying by shorts and com
mission houses, based on firm cables and
much smaller receipts in the Northwest.
Heavy world's shipments and an increase of
7.258.000 bushels In the amount of wheat
on passage, however, had a tendency to re
strain sellers and trade was light until late
In the day. The market was further
strengthened by the smallness ofNarimary
receipts. In the final 15 minutes, active
selling by holders set In and caused a
sharp decline. The market failed to, rally
from this set-hack and closed weak near
the lowest point. May opened 14 to Vic
higher, at 03 to 93c, advanced to 9414c
and declined to 9274c. and closed at 9274 8
03c.
Corn was quiet for the greater part of
the day and the market showed consider
able firmness because of firm cables and
continued small receipts. Prices became
weak during the final hour on heavy soiling
by pit traders and commission houses. The
close was weak and near the bottom. May
or.'ened 'i to c higher at 61 to 6114c
sold off to 00c and closed at 60c.
Oats were firm nearly all day. because of
a moderate demand by commission houses.
Prices declined late in the day because of
the weakness of wheat and corn. Mav
opened H to He higher at 53 c. sold off
to 52e and closed at 52c.
Provisions were strong early In the day
because of a 0 to 10c advance in the price
of live hogs, but later weakened on realiz
ing sales. At the close May pork was off
