THE 3I0RXIXG OREG0"IA THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1908.
TOO MAHYPOTATOES
Large Surplus Will Be Left in
Oregon.
COAST IS NOW OVERLOADED
Pari of the Supply Might Be "Worked
OIT If a Txmer Rate Were Grant
ed to Southwestern Points.
Situation In California.
Unless tiie markets In the Southwest ad
vance materially or the railroads come to
the relief of shippers In Oregon by grant
Ins; a lower rate to the Southwest, there
will he a larf-e part of this state's crop of
potatoes unsold at the end of the season. It
Is estimated that over 1.000.000 sacks re
main unsold in Oregon. An outlet In Mis
souri River territory. In Texas and the
Southwest for perhaps half this quantity
could he found If shipments could be made
profitably, but this la not possible with the
prevailing quotations In these sections and
the freJpht rate as It Is. California Is no
better off than Oregon, as about 1.000,000
sacks are still unsold there. With the stocks
in other districts tributary to the Coast
markets, there is a total available supply
of fully 2.300.O0O sacks of potatoes, while
the Coast requirements for the remainder of
the season are placed at not to eiceed
1.000.000 sacks. Could tne shippers get Into
the markets further East, It is probable a
good portion of the surplus could be worked
off, but whatever happens there is certain
to be a great quantity of potatoes uncon
sumed when the season comes to an end.
Shipments of Oregon potatoes continue to
he made. to San Francisco, but that market
Is overstocked with California potatoes and
the demand for Northern stock Is limited.
The beaviest drag on the Bay City market
is the enormous quantity of rivers available.
By holding to their potato crop too long a
largo number of growers in the river district
have most of their yield still on hand, and
are unable to dispose of It. It is estimated
that there are 500,000 Backs still on the
Islands and quite a lot In the Stockton
warehouses, with but little prospect of se
curing gohd prices. The market has slumped
to about 50c a sack, and even at that low
figure it Is next to Impossible to sell a
largo quantity, and unless there la an im
provement In the market thousands of sacks
will not be dug this season. The growers
have sold potatoes as htsn as $1.30 a sack,
but miry of them believed they could se
vere much better prices and held on to
fheir crops until Colorado commenced to
suirply the Southwest at low figures. The
bulk of the trade has gone to Colorado,
while California, which usually sells most
of Its crop In those states, will be almost
en.irely "cut out. Only a few cars are being
shipped to Arizona and Southern California.
DECTJVE IN T-OO MARKET IS STEADY
Northern Buyers Holding Off for BtiU Lower
Prices.
The egg market is suffering from a com
bination of larger receipts and smaller de
mand. Quotations varied yesrterday, but
most of the business, was reported done
around 22 cents. City buying was of a
hand-to-mouth character. Only a few small
sales were made to Northern buyers. Seattle
and Tacoma firms with an Alaska trade
do not hestltats to say the market must get
down to 20 cents before they will take
hold.
There was not much activity In the poul
try market, as receipts were light. The de
mand was principally for large, fat hens.
Butter was quoted steady by the city
crenmerles and en Front street, but It was
predicted In some quarters that the next
week or two would see a decline.
BAXAXAa" COME IN GOOD COXDmON
Supply of California Celery Will Be Light
for Some Time.
The only fresh produce receipts reported
yesterday were two cars of bananas 'and
one car of Kastcrn Oregon apples. The
bananas were m good shape, one car be
ing fairly green and the other ripe, but
sound A car of mixed San Francisco veg
etables Is due today and two cars of cauli
flower are due Friday, celery is going to be
scarce, as there is nothing worth shipping
left In Southern California and the Jersey
Island crop Is not yet matured.
The demand for fruit, especially oranges,
was brisk. Apples are in better supply and
some very good Ben Davis were offered at
tl per box.
There were no new developments in the
onton market, which was weak, but most of
the growers still have firm ideas.
HOP TRADING OX SMALL SCALE.
Growers Willing to Contract, but Demand
Is Light.
Hop trading was on a limited scale and
was principally between dealers. Farmers
are showing more willingness to contract
around 10 rnts, but there is not much de
mand for futures.
Of the New York country market, the lat
est issue of the Waterville Times Rajs:
There have been several good-sized lots
of hops delivered here during the past week
which were bought by local dealers.
Knowles Bros., of Knoxboro, delivered a 42
bale lot here for which we understand they
got l-Oc. The prices paid have been from 10
to 12 cents, most of the lots being small

GOULD STOCKS FULL
i-
Drop to Lowest Point in
Eleven Years.
BREAKS IN OTHER ISSUES
Trouble Due to Heavy Obligations
Maturing General List Ignores
These Movements and the
Close Is Very Strong.
NE.W YORK, Feb. 19. The feature of the
financial situation which was brought Into
notice by the action of today's stock mar
ket was the position er. corporations, es
pecially railroads, iwith Important maturing
obligations to meet, while the falling off in
their earning power has encroached so far
on the margin of surplus available for dis
tribution as to seriously Impair the market
standing of the securities. The 'Gould group
was acutely affected by these considerations
today and securities of other companies,
whose position is believed to be analogous,
showed the greatest sympathy.
The degree of resistance shown by the
general market, however, to the Influence
or the demoralized break - in the Gould
stocks was worthy of remark. In the early
stages the contrary movement in Missouri
Pacific was Ignored and prices elsewhere
made some headway upwards, and there was
a final rally to the best prices of the day.
The rise was halted and a general reaction
ensued, but It was moderate compared with
the fall In the stocks most affected. The
slumping tendency extended to some points
in the bond market as well, where the same
general causes were at work.
Railroad companies very generally were
forced last yea into temporary expedients
for financing their requirements, and the
rush of business at the time and the high
cost of operation and all kinds of equip
ment added materially to the urgency of
these needs. It was assumed at an early
stage of the banking crisis last Fall lhat in
the revulsion to follow there would be such
a piling up of cash in banking reserves as
would lead to redundant money and assist
in the refunding of the notes referred to as
they might mature. But the event is prov
ing that the falling off In business which
released money from active circulation must
be reckoned with also on the side of dimin
ished earning power with, which to meet
charges on borrowings.
The steps now being taken toward re
trenchment and economies of the railroads
to meet the falling off In business offer one
of the leading Bubjects of attention In the
financial .world. Today there were reports
of concerted action among Western railroad,
companies looking toward a "reduction in
wages on their systems. Fears of the strike
troubles that may follow are ,an appreciable
influence in the undertone of depression in,
the securities market. Retrenchment and'
economy,' however, cannot escape the obliga
tion for expenditures already made, and the
burden of such obligations was the point of
emphasis In the lesson inculcated by the
day's doings in stocks. A belief pre
vailed that an aggravating cause of the ex- .
treme depressfon shown by some stocks
was the forced selling of them In the liqui
dation of loans In which they figured as
collateral, and which are now maturing.
Recurring liquidation of this kind has been
In evidence from time to time ever since
the emergency terms which were forced on
needy borrowers last Fall. Fears of such
liquidation remaining to be completed are a
damper on the demand for stocks.
Reports of an intended receivership for
Missouri Pacific, which were stimulated by
the action of the stock, were denied by the
head of the system. The stock sold as low
as 28 14. Early In 1897, Missouri Pacific sold
at 10. bnt a rise later in that year put it to
an altitude above today's price, above which
It was held, at varwlng -degrees, ever since.
Western Union at 41. today's low price, was
the low, record since 1S70. when It touched
30 i. Another decline In copper was an in
cident of the day.
Money on call went about 3 per cent for
the first time in many days. Payment of a
20 per cent Installment of subscriptions to
Canadian Pacific stock was a factor In the
money market. Sterling exchange continued
firm and kept alive discussion of a possible
outward movement of gold at an early date.
The closing tone for stocks was strong at
the rebound.
Bonds .were weak. Total sales, par value,
$3,470,000. United States 4s advanced V4 per
cent on call.

PRICES START UPWARD
Opening Dealings Show the Effect
of the Severe Breaks in I)relgn
Markets Weather in the
Winter Wheat Belt.
CHICAGO. Feb. 19. Wheat opened nearly
one cent below the close of yesterday be
cause or a severe break at Liverpool and 1n
European markets and because of enormous
offerings from Argentina. The heavy snow
fall in the Middle West during the last 4S
hours also weakened prices, it being claimed
that the snow will provide ample moisture
for the Fall-sown crop. Later, the selling
became less urgent because of the proba
bility that local receipts for the next few
days will be greatly lessened by the severe
storm. The close was firm. May opened
M&la lower at 90 9Ic, advanced to 92V4C
and closed at 92 V4 ra'92c.
Corn followed wheat. May closed at
60X,e.
Oats were weak In the early day along
with wheat and corn. May closed at 52 He.
Provisions were firm at the opening be
cause of small receipts of live hogs, but the

ers. At the close May pork was off 10c,
