OUTLOOK FDR FRUIT
Cherries, Prunes and Pears
Will Be Scarce in Oregon.
HURT BY APRIL FROSTS
Bumper Crop of Apples Promised
as Result or Systematic Spraying.
Walnuts and Filberts lo
Well Cannery Situation.
District Fruit Commissioner James H.
Retd has been Investigating fruit prospects
In th Valley and believes that excellent
crops will be, produced of all varieties ex
cept cherries, pears and prunes. These fruits
wen seriously Injured by the two heavy
frosts that occurred In April. Mr. Re Id
ays:
"1 knew the frosts did much damage, but
it was far greater than I expected. Of
cherries, not over 33 per cent of a crop
will be picked, while only 3V per cent of a
crop of prunes Is now In eight. Cherries
and prunes always go together, when any
crop Injury Is to be figured, upon. Bartlett
pears will be extremely scarce this year,
possibly only 15 per cent of a crop. Most
of the pears that are left will be scabby on
account of excessive ratna at epraying time.
"There will be a bumper crop of apples in
Oregon Not only have the climatic con
ditions been favorable, but the spraying
that has been done will show In wonderful
results. Hundreds of orchards In the state
that have not for ten years produced apples
lit for the market will this year turn out
good marketable apples In abundance.
Everything: looks good for the peach crop.
Berries are also doing well. The early
strawberry crop suffered, or course, but the
late crop should be good and there will be
heavy yields of logan and black berries. It
Is too early to make any estimate on the
yrape crop.
"English walnuts and filberts give prom
ise of excellent yields, though It Is too early
yet to say definitely what the outcome will
be."
The recent developments In the cherry
situation have upset the plans of the can
nerymen. In the early part of the season
when the prospects were favorable for a
large crop, the canners figured on opening
the cherry market at 2 cents a pound and
they made no contracts with growers, as
they expected to get all tjjey wanted at
their own price. Last year canning Cher-
Vies sold firm at 5 cents and It does not
look as if lower prices would prevail this
year.
POTATOG ROWERS ARK FIRM HOLDERS
Not Disposed to Let Co Until the Market
Advances.
There -were no new deveipoments In the
notato situation yesterday, A number of
growers were In town Investigating the
situation and they expressed themselves as
well n leased with the outlook In other
words, they will continue to hold. Specula
tive dealers are of the same frame of mind
and are quietly sitting down on their pur
chases and waiting for San Francisco buy
ers to come to their terms. The bearish
telegrams sent from the Bay City have
failed to have any effect on holders In this
section. They believe that as soon as the
limited stocks in San Francisco are ex
Jiaueted prices will necessarily go higher.
Business In the country Is almost at
standstill. Rumors were aguln current yes
terday that 90 cants had been paid for
nme small lota
The Jobbing market was exceedingly flrfn
at 00 cents to $1 and the street looks for a
further advance. New California potatoes
were In better, supply and were quoted at
SHtfft cent
FIRST GKEKX CORN OF THE . SEASON
Lot Sells at 60 Omt a Doves,
Strawberries Are Firm.
Mors strawberries arrived yesterday than
on Tuesday, but the supply was not suf
ficient for the local trade and prices were
quoted very firm. Oregon berries brought
150 17H cents and most of the Callfornlas
sold at 11. t0 per crate. Black cherries were
care and firm, but plenty of red cherries-
were offered. There Is a scarcity of ripe
bananas on the street, but two or three
cars -are due today. A shipment of
Hawaiian pineapples was received and quot
ed at $3 4. 50 per dozen.
The first green corn of the season ap
peared, a small shipment arriving from
Brawler. CaL, which brought a high price,
60 cents per dozen. Wax and green beans
were plentiful, but peas were in limited sup
ply, telephones selling at 7 cents. The street
was practically bare of tomatoes. . A fair
assortment of steamer truck was distributed
and a car of cabbage was received.
Market Bare of Turkeys.
The poultry market, for the most part,
was slaw yesterday. Chickens were In rood
supply and dragged, prices ruled about
steady except on fryers and broilers, which
were weaker. IHicks were also quoted eaey.
There was a good demand, however, for tur
keys especially hens, but the market was
bare of them.
Bears moved at the previous'" range of
prices, 19 20 cents, with adequate receipts.
There was no change In the butter situa
tion. City creamery butter was In active
demand and firm and outside brands moved
off at steady prices.
Deadlock In the Hop Market.
The deadlock between buyers and sellers
In the hop market continues, and trading Is,
consequently, on a very limited scale. Grow
ere are not willing to accept the presen
prlcee offered and none of the heavy buyers
has shown any disposition yet to advance
bids.
Local Wheat Prior.
1 Club. Valley and red wheat Quotations
were advanced a cent at the Board
Trade yesterday. Trading in wheat was re
ported quiet and the other cereals were also
dull. Much of the business being handled
now Is of a cleanlng-up nature.

SHARP BREAKS RECORDED
Mysterious Rumors Affecting Sever
al Railroads Ar Pot in Circu
lationWeaker Tone Develops
in the Bond Market.
-EW YORK, May 27. Further speculative
liquidation was very obvious In today's stock
market, during; the progress of which prlcee
were carried to a lower level than has been
touched since the movement began In the
latter part of last week. The downward
course of prices finds as little In the actual
news to account for It as did the previous
advance, a fact which strengthens the view
that the operations are , centered in few
hands and find their motive In a longer
prospect of affairs than is outlined In the
day-to-day developments. '
While the selling now in progress neetf not
represent fears of coming unfavorable events.
It must be accepted as a reflection ox a cer
tain disappointment over the effect of such
favorable developments as have occurred, and
which have failed to Incite a sufficient de
mand tor stocks to absorb realizing sales,
except at the price concessions which are
being made. When the stationary movement
was once fairly established there came into
notice also revived activity on the part of the
encouraged bears in the circulation ot reports
calculated to prompt selling of stocks and so
help in the effort to depress prices.
some such reports today 'were or consiaer-
able effect. This effect was clearly seen In
the case of some of the railroads of lower
credit under suspicion earlier in the year ' of
financial embarrassment, but since credited
with being safely extricated from their trou-
blea On account of these rescues, the re
bound in stocks from extreme depression was
particularly violent, leaving them the more
vulnerable tp the revival of rumors Impugn
ing their solvency. The -violent breaks In
this clash in today's market aided materially
In the bear campaign for lower prices.
The character of some of the crop damage
reports also awakened suspicion of bearish
origin by reason of the mysterious allusion
to the hidden sources of information on
which they were based. The violent fluc
tuations in grain prices yesterday gave force
these rumors, although largely due to
technical speculative conditions In those mar
kets.. This was better perceived today when
detailed news of weather conditions was
known.
Another field of bearish industry was in
the alleged intentions of the Federal Govern
ment in the matter of further prosecutions
of corporations.
The eaatr tone developed in the bond mar
ket was of more influence on financial senti
ment even than the break in stocks. The
feeling over the Investment situation was af
fected by the reception given tne new now
Issues opened for subscription and for the
high grade bond Issues previously offered in
spite of the attractive return of this class of
issues.

passed at the last meeting providing
for the sale by the city at inaction of
an old horse -which has beenr used In
the service of the Park Board. Even
at the conclusion of nearly an hour of
debate the City Council failed to do any
thing further with the question than to
sustain the vote, thus deciding that the

arodrdlnance
airoroDriatlnB J500 to the decorating ot the
East Side was also sustained as was the
veto of an ordinance appropriating JSOO

NEW TORK, May 27. New ooean xec
ords will be tried for by the giant liners
Mauretania and Lu6ltanla, which set ou
today from opposite sides of the Atlantic
Owing to the delay in getting out or cry
dock, the Mauretania was not able to
leave Liverpool on Saturday according to
her schedule, so that on the passage be
ginning today she will attempt to make
the round trip within two weeks. If she
succeeds it will be the shortest round trip
on record. Her schedule calls for her
arrival here on Monday, when she would
discharge her cargo, take on coal, pas
sengers and baggarre and sail for Liver
pool on Thursday, June 4.
Meantime the Lusltanla sailed from
here today on the second lap of her round
trip for the subvention offered by th
British government for an average speed
of 24.6 knots on each voyage of a round
trip. Her average on the nrst half
the trip which ended here last week was
24.83 knots.
