The meeting brought out considerable ln
tret and discussion of the various fea

ters ro that w hen the active business sea

: vent the carrying on a large volume of
burlness A committee of three was ap
pointed to gn over the rules at proposed and
report al a later meeting.
There was a fair attendance at the board
peflnn! eterday morning, and as on the
preceding- day a considerable amount of tn
fiitm.il business was done by the ferd deal
er. Pevernl offers to buy grain, butter and
rci were wired in from the Seattle produce
Kxi haripe, and some of these orders were
rxe.-utrd. out-of-town members at Valley
P-'tms have communicated with the officers
of the board as to the method of offering
supplies to the local trade through the
agency of the exchange.
There were no material alterations in the
produce prices as posted. Kggs were still
quoted at IfiTlfiHe. though the only sale
was at the top fiprure and there were offers
from the Sound to buy at this price, which
met with no response on the part of sellers.
The tone of the grain and produce mar
kets was reported aa follows:
Wheat, easy; barley, easy; flour, steady.
Kg rs, steady ; butter. steady ; poultry,
firm: dressed moats, weak.
Off era and s-ales on the board were:

f'renl -?t rect Mtn finds CnMomen I ac king;
at but Hoard Offer Half Cmt More.
Receipts of e-gp yesterday were of the
average volume and the price was quoted
steady en the street, in some quarters the
market was pronounced weak and one deal
er asserted ho could not get oer Id cents.
However, bad he attended the Foard of
Trade, as he should have done, he could
have unloaded at an advance over this
price. An offer from Seattle to buy lOO
cases at It'1! cents was posted and only 23
cases were forthcoming to fill the order.
There was a good demand In the poultry
market for hens and small chickens, and
for farcy lots of the fromer 154 l cents
were realised.
There were no new developments in the
butter market, most of the leading handlers
reporting supples under requirements.
EXPORT WHEAT TRADE IS QV1FT.
Bit." in for CHllfnrnlit Account Oata and
Barley Firmer.
Very little buying of wheat Is reported
by exporters, but a considerable amount of
business Is s&ld to be passing on California
account. The prices q-.joted at the Foard of
T:ade were STc for Kucstern and Sc for
cluh. The export value of hhiestem, how
mt, was e3 cents, and of club. S3 cents,
and exper tens were not disposed to offer
more.
A much firmer tone prevailed In oats. and
barley, though the board quotations were
not changed. The strength of the market
was due to reports of need of rain both. In
the PaTouse country and In California. At
the San FYancisro exchange barley values
advanced sharply.
APPROVAL OF ri!U E S.VLMOS SALES
ITactlcally Entire Expected Pack on Co
lumbia River Sold.
In discuseirg the canned goods trade in
the East, the latest I?sue of the New York
Commercial stays:
-So far as spot trading is concerned, the
market for canned goods is quiet, and the
tone i generally easy. Jobbers show in
difference for most of the articles and are
buying only such quantities as they ac
tually require to meet wants of the mo
ment. In a good many cases they are YSuv
ing among th?m5elves and ignoring first
bands. A feature that has come to the
front 1 the fact that practically the entire
evnected pack of Columbia Rrver salmon
has been placed on orders taken subject to
approval of prices when named. This fea
ture has encouraged the belief that a more
active spot business may be looked for as
soon as retailers come Into the market for
fresh supplies.
Kanaruui Arrive In t.ood Order.
Three cars of bananas were received cn
Front street yeeterday and they were all in
fire condition. On car of oranges a'so ar

A part of one of the cars of vegetables
received Tuesday was handled jesterday and
this, with the wt earner receipts, furnished an
aznjle supply of truck; for the local trade.
Asparagus and rhubarb were quoted slight
ly lower and other vegetables were generally
unchanged.

NTJW YORK. April At the Stock Ex
change today the price movement was even
more sluggish and undecided than yt-aterday.
Th (Government report on the April condition
of Winter wheat and rye was made the vehicle
for an attempted revival of activity. Traders
ifho had bought In anticipation of a good crop
report sold to take profits and prices of stocks
ran off, although the percentage of condition
of wheat was fully as high ss had been ex
pected. The indifference of the tock market to this
factor proved a dleafpointment to the trading
element, and they fell back upon the E-1
flns.nclal problem as the repressive influence
on the market. The question arose aa to the
position the company would be in with the
passing of the maturity of the notes without
redemption. The notes sold off on the curb
again to below 90.
Reports ot rain In Kansas offered newer
conditions for the wheat crop thHn were re
ported by the Agricultural department, and
Lad more effect In sustaining prtces.
Dealings in the bond division of the stock
market show some increasing variety in the
number of issues dealt In, but the aggregate
transactions hold at a low ebb.
Rumors that the Brie plan would become
operative grew more positive late in the day
and rallied prices. The numerous shifts tn
the price movement so far offset each other
that the day's net changrs are not important.
Itonds were steady. Total sales, par value,

strong on a brisk demand for May by ele
vator house and shorts. Prices advanced
steadily throughout the remainder of the
dav. the market closing strong near the
high point. May opened Htc to 1H91HC
lower at S9e to SOHc, advanced to 91HC
and closed at 914fcc.

of weather conditions, which were unfavor
able for the movement of the crop. The
May delivery was In good demand nd

wheat caused a good recovery. May closed
at 52 Sc.

It will be seen by the
above that the bonds of
the Chesapeake & Ohio
Road pay 5 per cent and
sell at $i07.50; also Wa
bash 5 per cent bonds
sell at. $105.25. When
the Ocean Shore Road,
is completed, its 5 per
cent bonds, it is firmly
believed, will probably
sell between $105 and
$110, giving all who in
vest now an additional
profit, over and above
their semi-annual inter
est. Estates, banks, the
National Oovc rnment
and financiers all over
the world, invest in
bonds. They have long
since been demonstrated
the safest, more profit
able and least cumber
some securities that a
man can carry.
