THE MORNING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 20. 1903. 15 PRICE WILL BE LOW Wool May Be Withdrawn Sealed-Bid Sale. at FIRST SALE SATURDAY Farmers Are Expected to I old Their Clips for a Possible Rise Later. Hops Are Not Moving Freely. Grrat interest is dt.ayM by the wool trade in the coming Bales in Eastern Oregon, the first of which occurs at Arlington next Saturday. The grneral opinion is that the auctions will not be a success. No one pre tends to know what prices will be bid. but It is safe to say the offers will not be satis factory to the growers, AH the sheep raisers are now acquainted with the unsatis factory condition of the wool market and they are prepared for lower prices than last year. At points where the 1907 clip old for 20 cents, the growers are looking for this vears market to open around 18 or possibly IT cents. When they find, as may be the case, that the buyers will bid only 10 cents or seme such low figure, It ia more than likely they will withdraw their wools from sale. Shearing Is general In most of the Eastern counties, but not much of the wool has been hauled to market yet. According to the Vale Orlano, the clips are beginning to reach the warehouses there. That paper says: "It is estimated that fully two and a half million pounds of wool will be stored in Vale this year and arrangements have been made to properly store and care for the same. It Is feared that the price will be low this year, and many of the growers witl hold until the market has become thoroughly established before attempting to sell. Tha wool men are all In & condition to hold their wool, as they are in most cases free from Indebtedness." CHEESE DOWN TO THIRTEEN CENTS Market Is Orerntocked and very Weak City Butter Firm. The cheese market has turned very weak and prices of twins and triplets have de clined to 13 cents, at which stocks are of fered freely. I-oeal receipts are large and supplies are also accumulating at the fac tories at Tillamook. There is a fair local demand, but very little shipping business is being done. Seattle Is buying some, but the San Francisco demand ' has ceased. Southern California cities are out of tho market, as Eastern cheese is offered lower there. Competition from the East has also put an end temporarily to orders from Spo kane and points In that territory. City creamery butter was quoted a cent higher, at 25 cents, and the market was firm, though there was no change in coun try creamery prices. Eggs were In light supply generally and fresh ranch stock was firm. The poultry market was firm, with a strong demand for chickens, hen turkeys and Spring ducks. The latter were quoted at 221!6 cents The kind wanted was not less than three pounds In weight. FOP-GROWERS STRONG IX VIEWS. Take Adrantag-e of the Keen Competition and Hold for Higher Prices. The movement In the hop market has slow ed down, materially, not-because of any abatement In the demand, but owing to the difficulty of transacting business. Growers have become very firm In their views, as a consequence of the repeated offers made by buyers, and somthing of a dead-lock has ensued, that can only be broken by the granting of the concessions on one side or the other. A few of the dealers are of the opinion that a quiet spell will weaken the holders, but It seems more probable, in view of the depleted supplies, that the buyers will have to give in and raise their bids. If they want to do business. STRAWBERRIES FROM I-OS ANGELES. Southern California Make Cp for Light Re celpts From Florin. A car of Los Angeles berries, consisting of 1300 crates, arrived yesterday.

Potato Market Very Firm. The potato market is very firm and 70 cents Is being paid in the country for No. 1 stock. The stlfTnecs of the market is due to the strong demand from the California cities where a temporary shortage exists, owing to the late season for New Rlvere. As soon as the new potatoes begin arriving in quantity, this pressure to buy will cease. Stocks, however, are well cleaned up in Western Oregon and only about 100 cars re main to be shipped. The season will end about June 1, and it Is probable the supply will ljt that long. A small shipment of potatoes is being made to Alaska, but the Sound cities are rot In the market for Ore gone, High Price Offered for Wheat. The California demand for wheat con tinues strong, and dealers are offering up to Wl cents for blue-stem, but farmers are slow sellers, even at this price. Oats and barley are steady.

BREAK AT THE CLOSE Prices in the Early Trading the Highest Since Last Fall Im portant Portion, of the De mand Comes From Abroad. new YORK, May 10. Another day uaiiBTLmna or more man a million shares marked the continued speculative interest In the stock market today. Dealings at the outset set a pace for animation and vigor oywara movement not equalled, since the rise was inaugurated. The early promise was not maintained, either tn the degreee of activity or in the advance in prices, the final Issue being a disorderly break at the close. Agile professional traders were on the floor. They were lying in wait today to add the weight of their short-selling to the heavy offerings of profit-taking sales, which came Into the market. Reports from mercantile quarters admit that buyers are taking hold with greater confidence than at any time In six months past. - While the effect of Wall street's dem onstration of returning confidence is coming back by reflection from the country's busi ness affairs, Wall street itself was disposed to pause and take breath today, after the opening- spurt In the market. That out burst established a level of prices higher than any heretofore touched on this move ment and since a considerable time before the October panic of last year. The sud den expansion in the buying at the outset offered so attractive an opportunity for turning paper profits Into cash that It was generally availed of. An Important portion of the bidding came from foreign sources. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value. $5.438.0o. United Stat-es bonds were unchanged on call. ClOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

The members of the Carmen's Union began a series of meetings for the pur pose of arousing sympathy and to appeal to the public to refrain from using the cars until the strike finally Is settled. Referendum on Franchise. At these meetings the proposition was advanced of petitioning the City Council to order a public vote as to whether the franchise recently granted and under which the Municipal Traction Company is operating shall become effective. This proposal is based upon new initiative and referendum law enacted by the Legislat ure a few weeks ago. The petition will make it obligatory on the council to sub mit the matter to a vote. The movement was started by the strikers. Should the vote be against the fran chise, it would have- the effect of inval idating it, it is alleged, and this in turn would result In the Traction Company's losing, at least temporarily, control of the street-railway traffic here. President Dupont of the Municipal Traction Company said he would not re cede from his former position in refusing to take the old employes back upon the old basis. He said they must go back as "new" men. Vice-President Behner of the union steadfastly refused to con cede this point. Another suburban trolley car was at tacked late tonight, when a Cleveland & Southwestern car was partly wrecked on Iorain avenue. The front of the car was demolished by a dynamite cartridge. No one was seriously hurt. List of Injured. Following: In a revised list of Injured in today's rioting: J- M. Gray, motorman. Limit, O-, shot in leg. P. C.

CLAIRVOYANTS IN TOILS Five Self-Styled Seers Disregard License Ordinance. Had delvers into the future taken more pains with their own destiny and less with those who pay for insight in to the mysteries of the future, they would not now be in trouble. As it is now, five female trance mediums, clair voyants, palmists, phrenologists and disciples of the occult are under arrest, all charged with having failed to secure city licenses before practicing their art on the superstitious simple. They must have forgotten to peer into the future insofar as that state related to them selves, otherwise the trouble would have been foreseen and circumvented by the securing or the required licenses. The harvest reaped by the police yes terday includes Virginia Rowe, Mme Triselda Deleroy. Mme. Edward, E. piers and Mme. Hyde. All were released on bail after reading the palms of the station force at police headquarters. They will be tried in the Municipal Court.
