FACE A SHORTAGE
Coast Markets Likely to Run
Out of Old Potatoes.
SUPPLY IS NEARLY GONE
Thirty Days Requirements Must Be
Filled In Some Way Farmers
Are Very Firm Holders.
California Conditions.
The potato market was not as excited yes
terday aa It vbi Saturday, but was never
theless very firm. Buying In the, country
wu reduced to email proportions by reason
of the. firm news displayed by holders. Nearly
all the shippers were anxious to eecure sup
plies, but found It Impossible to do mo unless
by sharply raising-their bids. Thia was not
done, so far as could be learned, and business
was therefore on a small scale.
It was thought, in some quarters, that the
San Francisco spurt has exhausted Itself and
It ts known that some of the buyers have
been ordered to withdraw from the market.
This move, however, is most likely only
temporary, as San Francisco and, in fact, all
the Coast cities, face a serious shortage.
Owing to the lateness of the new crop, the
Bay City will want old potatoes for a, month
yet and the question that confronts the trade
there 1 where to get the supply. The stock
left In the Northwest will be needed at home,
an old potatoes wtU be required here until
July 1.
Western Oregon Is practically bare of choice
hipping" stock and only a limited quantity
of ordinary potatoes Is In sight, " though the
ruling high prices may bring out some sup
plies that are not known to exist. Stocks In
Eastern Oregon are also much reduced be
cause of the recent heavy shipments from
that territory.
Local Jobbers yesterday adjusted their quo
tations to the new "-eondltlons by advancing
the price to the trade to 00 cents.
C1TEE8E GOING TO CAUFORNIA.
Iarge Shipment; Arrives In Transit From
Tillamook.
The ateamer Elmore arrived yesterday with
2000 boxes of cheese from Tillamook. In the
weakened condition of the market, this supply
would probably break prices, but fortunately
for the producers, the shipment was only in
transit and by this time Is on Its way to San
Francisco. There Is a fair Inquiry in the
local market from California and1 also wme
demand from the Sound cities and this keeps
prices steady. With a cessation of the out
siiie buying, quotations wduld have to drop.
The butter market was reported firm by the
city creameries and steady by the commission
handlers.
K$g receipts by freight were fairly large for
the first day of the week. Buying waa not
particularly -brisk. Quotations were un
changed. Poultry waa in good1 supply, slow of sale
and weak in price.
Prune Crop in California.
The California Fruit Grower says of the
prune crop in that state:
"The growing prune crop continues to look
mailer and smaller. Estimates now are for
about one-half of last year crop, which was
of itself only about half a crop. This will
put the output for the state this year at
somewhere In the neighborhood of R0, 000,000
pounds. Should the Santa Clara Valley turn
out as short as some now predict -think, esti
mates will be reduced again."
Strawberries In Poor Condition.
There waa a full supply of strawberries
yesterday, but a considerable portion of the
receipts were In poor order. The best Ore
gon brought 17 He per pound, while others
sold as low as 10 cents. California berries
were quoted at $1.601. TO per orate.
Receipts of vegetables Included two cars of
cabbage and the first straight car this season
of California red onions.
Sugar Drops 0 Cents.
All grades of sugar dropped 20 cents per
hundred yesterday. It waa a refinery decline
and was said to reflect the weakened condi
tioa of the sugar markets In the East, where
refined sugar dropped 10 cents. Friday and
raws have been declining; steadily for some
time past. t
Advance in Local Flour Quotations.
The expected advance In flour prices oc
curred yesterday, all local grades going up 20
cents per barrel. This advance waa the re
sult of the strength of the wheat market.

LONDON A FREE SELLER
Reports on Storms in the Southwest
Cause Some Misgivings End of
Gold Export Movement
Expected Soon. .
NHW TORK, May 25. Measures were
taken In the stock market today to arrest
the violent decline Into whlcb the price move
ment had Tun on Saturday. After these had
been made effective, proceedings became dull
and uninteresting and almost barren of
evenba. London was a free seller of stock,
here In the first half day and this was pointed
to as a reflection of the unfavorable view
taken by foreign Investor. In American securi
ties of the new activity of the Government
against railrooad corporations signalized In the
New Haven suit. Less was heard of that
subject In the local discussion.
Reports of floods in the Southwestern States
caused some misgivings and the grain markets
were not free from signs of anxiety on the
same score.
The outward movement of gold continued,
although with some symptoms of the end of
the demand approaohing soon. Paris again
secured all of the newly arrived gold In the
London market, but ft decline in the price of
bar gold there and a r!ee In the London ex
change rate at Pari. Indicated the unlikeli
hood that the movement would be continued.
The National Bank of Germany's strong week
ly returns seem to herald a reduction in Its
discount rate. The sub-treasury statement
showed a gain by that Institution on Satur
day, operations of $11,197,000, representing
the progress of the return by the banks of
the Government', deposits -In response to the
Treasury call. While this completes the pres
ent demand of the Treasury Department, It
Is considered certain that, further withdrawals
will take place at an early day, a. the course
of the Government', finance, clearly fore
shadows the neceseity for this. Time money
rates were reported somewhat firmer, although
not quotably higher. The close was strong.
Bonds were Irregular. Total Mies, par value,
$3,276,000. United States boada were un
changed on call.

In the tower built on the monitor for

was a real enemy of war. this being for
the purpose of ascertaining what position
the formidableness of the monitor type
of ship occupies.
The torpedoes to be shot at the Florida
by the Morris will be repelled by a tor
pedo net about the monitor below her
water line. This will be the first test
of the torpedo net by the American Navy.
