SINGLE GRAIN STANDARDS
Chamber of roinmrrce Committee
Invited to Supervise Grain Mat
ters on the Kxchancc Iaily
forenoon Sessions.
It wk d iled hy the gram and feod
members of the Board of Trad at their
eion yesterday afternoon, to meet dally
In the future at the time nrt scheduled,
between 11 and 12 o'clock, an the afternoon
hour was Inconvenient to many of them.
A committee of the board appointed at
the special meeting Wednesday night, called
on the grain exporter! yesterday morning;
and explained the workings of the exchange,
and Invited them to have their representa
tive dally nn the floor. It was also
explained hy the committee that It
was the desire of the Board of Trade
to conform strictly to the standards
established by the Chamber of Com
vaarre (train committee, and in fact the
Board of Trade feels that the grain stand
ard committee of the Chamber of Commerce
should act Jointly for both institutions and
become the grain committee of the Board of
Trade. This close co-operation will elim
inate any objections that may nave been
rained. The committee feels justified in as
serting that the export grain interests will
be represented on the floor dally hereafter.
No business was transacted on the pro
duce call at noon. Supplies In this depart
ment are so llg;ht that there Is very little
produce to offer now. The board quotations,
in g-enerat. were unchanged.
Among those present at the session was
S. KUne, a Corvallls merchant, president
of the Retail Grocers' and Merchants' Asso
ciation of Oregon.
The tone of the produce markets was re
ported by the committee as follows:
Veal, arrivals very much heavier, market
weak all around, price shaded in some
ca"cs.
Rrrs, very firm, good outside demand: in
dications outside orders cease In few days.
Poultry arrivals moderate; market in good
shape.
The following offers were posted
to sell:

( lip Is KcnrhinK This Market More Freely
Trude In the Knst. "
There will be a meeting of the Polk
Comity Mohair Association Saturday for the
purpose of chatiRing- the date of the mohair
pool sale, as the primary elections are to be
held on the day already set.
Mohair Is reaching the local market more
freely as the growers are becoming recon
ciled to the sharply reduced quotations.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin says of
the Eastern market:
A many mills are shut down, and others
running only on part time, there Is but tittle
buying being done. There are, of course,
sales of small lots from time to time, when
ever manufacturers see an opportunity ff
acquiring stock at favorable prices, but the
total volume of actlvlt y Is not of Impor
tance. Price are nominally steady, and
holders of mohair show no Inclination to
make sacrifice sales in order to induce busi
ness. A bid of ,c under the sellinjr price
or one lot of hair was the cause of the Im
mediate withdrawal of the stock from, the
market.
The average, grades are in slow demand,
both In America and England, but it is re
ported that some transfers of finer qualities
nave recently been made In En gland. For
eign hair is practically at a standstill In
this market.
The new domestic clip is said to be up to
the average in quality, while growers' Ideas
of prices are beyond those held by the mid
dleman, in Texas, up to 30c is being- asked,
which Is thought unreasonable by Eastern
dealers.

Portland Jobbers lo Not Find It Necessary
to Buy Through, Scuttle.
The first csr of Florida tomatoes of the
season was started for Portland yesterday.

matoes through Seattle, but thie car will
come direct.
A car of mixed vegetables and a cor of
Wlnntngstadt cabbage arrived yesterday.
Kxpre:t receipts of peas and asparagus were
larger, but they sold promptly. Oregon
cauliflower is coming in freely, and large
siaes bring- t per dosen. The first Oregon
hothouse cucumbers of the season were re
ceived yesterday and were quoted, at $1.50$?
$J per dozen.
Two cars of fancy oranges were the only
arrivals in the fruit line.
KXiti PRICKS STRONG ON THE STREET.
Farmers Holding- Back for Faster Trade
Poultry irro.
The egg market was very firm on Front
street. Arrivals generally were light, indi
cating that the country Is holding back
supplies for Easter. This nun been the cus
tom for many year?, but the shippers are
seldom trainers by It.
There was al?o a strong demand forhens
and small chickens, which cleaned up read
ily at fall prices.
No new developments were reported in the
butter market beyond an easier tone. Offers
to veil under the market were made on the
Board of Trade, Indicating more weakness
on the part of holders.
New Texts Onions Next Week.
A few small lots of onions are being
hauled In from nearby sections and the sup
ply is barely sufficient to meet the daily re
quirements of Jobbers. Three cars of Texas
Bermuda onions are rolling and the first

NEW YORK. April The bewilderment
In which the financial irorld has been groping
for more than a week over the Erie problem
waa amply Justified by the dlaclowirea over
night of the extent to which the principal,.
In the working out of the problem, had beea
confused. Wall street hea clung to a con
viction that the Erle-a bankers mux have
safeguarded their plans by mearores to take
care of the unaosenting notes. In addition to
having assured themselves of the assent of a
sufficient number of noteholders to leave only
an unimportant residue to be cared for.
Aay assumption that the Erie's bankers
had not safeguarded their larw by measure
to take ear, of the uaawentlng' notes. In
addition to bavins; assured themselves of the
assent of a sufficient number of noteholders,
have been met by the assertion that a desire
to force a recelverahdp for the company would
be a fair Inference from such a Btate of af
fairs. That the Erie was saved from a re
ceivership and that the advance of relief
funds expressed confidence not only In the
property, but In the financial prospect In
general, wera the result, summed up to be
accepted from the episode as a whole.
The effect In the stock market today, how
ever, was of slow growth and was not unin
terrupted. Depressing Influences were a de
cline In London copper and assertions that a
cut In prices of steel products was In con
templation. United States Steel was affected
by these reports and did not share largely In
the rally In pricesi In spite of the renewed
assurances from the chairman of the board
of the corporation issued in a public state
ment that no reduction would prevail.
Some of the notable advances were due to
special cause In the New York local trans
actions there was evidence of the foreleg- to
cover of a distressed short Interest. The rle
In Brooklyn Transit was attributed to Its In
creased prospects for traffic by reason of the
defeat of the Albany bill against race track
gambling.
Foreign exchange advanced sharply. Ster
ling exchange at Paris declined and gold con
tinued to go out to Pari, from London. In
creasing the likelihood of shipments from
New Tork to Paris on the triangular opera
Uon.

Work on Power Station Progressing
Contracts have been let to the Risdon
Iron Works. San Francisco, for a large
quantity of steel pipe far the penstocks
at the power station new being built by
the Mount Hood Railway & Power Com
pany at Bull Run. Work is well along
on the foundations to the power-house,
which will eventually grind out 75,000
horse-power. Changes in the route be
tween Gresham and Portland are likely
because of the difficulties the right-of-way
agents are experiencing In obtaining
property needed in building on the route
originally outlined. It is probable that
the company will build south of Mount
Tabor instead of to the north of it as
originally intended.

BANKS
BUI
BONDS
With your money. They buy
because of the attractive in
terest rates that are paid by
the issuing company. Usual
ly bonds, especially railway
bonds, are issued in denomi
nations of $1000. This makes
small investing prohibitive.
The issuance of railway
bonds in denominations of
$100, selling upon easy terms
and guaranteeing the pay
ment of interest with ass3t3
modestly valued at over
$5,000,000, by the OCEAN
SHORE RAILWAY COM
PANY, is a novelty in finan
ciering. It has proven pop
ular in San Francisco, where
over half the issue has been
subscribed. Portland people,
many of them the most rep
resentative citizens, have
been extremely interested in
the plan of the OCEAN
SHORE RAILWAY COM
PANY. They are keeping
in close touch with the re
sults we are securing. The
chief feature of these bonds
is their denomination, $100.
The second is the reasonable
price at which we are selling
them $92 for cash in full
and $96 on time payments.
The third and most excellent
feature is the -fact that an
opportunity is, for the first
time, afforded to the small
investor to become the pos
sessor of gilt-edged, profit
able securities upon easy
terms, and be earning money
while paving for them. If
you place your money in a
savings bank, drawing 4 per
cent interest, you get noth
ing for your money until it
has been in the bank for six
months. Then, you get in
terest only on the balance to
your credit at interest-paying
time. Invest in the bonds
of the OCEAN SHORE
RAILWAY COMPANY and
this is the plan: Pay $16
cash and $10 per month. In
eight months you have paid
for the bond. The first in
terest date for you will be
November 1. At that time
you will receive 5 per cent on
$100, or 5.21 per cent on $96,
the price you paid. Thus,
from the time you make your
first payment of $16, you are
receiving interest on the total
amount. It's the peculiarly
attractive interest that
catches the banker. Why
not you? k
