NEW -GROR-PRUNES
Opening Price Named on Ore
gon Italians.
ADVANCE OVER LAST YEAR
Small Shipment Offered on Three-Cent-Bag
Basin, Coast Active
Trading in the Local
Fresh Fruit Market.
The shortness of the Italian prune crop
of Oregon and Washington and the partial
failure of the California crop indicate good
prices for the product of the Pacific Coast
etatvs. The trade has been prepared for
opening prices considerably higher than
those of last year, but if the first definite
offering out of the 1IHS crop at a firm price
Is to he accepted as. a criterion the advance
over last season's opening figures will
much exceed general expectations. This
first definite offering, however, ia insig
nificant and can hardly be taken as rep
resentative of the views of the Northwest
ern packers in general, who seem disposed
to hold back quotations until they know
with greater certainty what they have to
expect In the way of a crop.
The offering above referred to was based
on two carloads only, equal quantities "O
4As and 40-50s for October-November ship
ment, the basis price being .1 cents f. o.
b. coast In bags, which is of a cent
higher than the opening figures on the
MH7 crop.
Of the market for old prunes, the New
York Journal of Commerce says:
"Fpot Oregon Italian prunes are dull and
unsettled except on the best stocks, which
Is generally held on a 3c f. o. b. coast
bag basis. The inferior and soft goods,
which make up a large part of the present
Fpot holdings, are offered at the best prices
they will bring."
STRAWBEKRIES TAKE ANOTHER DROP.
Lemon Market Is Booming Car of New
Potatoes Today.
The two warm days put the strawberry
market down to a proper level yesterday.
"Receipts were large and the demand good,
but a seasonable decline was inevitable.
The bulk of the arrivals sold at $2 (& 2.73
per crate. Mt. Tabor's sold in the morn
ing at 10 cents a pound. Lower prices are
expected today. If the weather continues
warm, this may be the last week of the
strawberry season.
Tho lemon market 4s booming, with
prices very firm, choice being held at $4.
and fancy at $4.50 per box. Cantaloupes
were In fair supply yesterday, pony crates
selling at $:.. and standards at $4. Apri
cots and cherries were in good demand.
The first car of apricots is due early next
week.
A straight car of new California potatoes
will arrive this morning and they will be
offered at 2 cents per pound. Old po
tatoes are very firm at $11.10. Two cars
of mixed vegetables arrived and cleaned
up.
IXCAL GRAIN MARKETS' HOLD OWN.
Major Taylor, of St. John, Wah.ta Says Pa
lou&e Pronpects are Excellent.
The grain markets were -quiet and un
changed yesterday. There was a fair de
mand from California for wheat and also
Inquiry from Nevada and Utah. Tho East
is Gtill asking for oats, and in the past
week about 5V tons have been shipped to
Texas and Colorado points. There is a
Bteady local feed demand for barley.
B. J. Taylor, Mayor and Grain Merchant
of St. John. Wash., who was a visitor
at the Board of Trade yesterday, says all
the crops are looking exceedingly well in
"Whitman county. Fall wheat is in. better
shape than It has been for years at this
period, and the Spring crop Is also in good
condition. The grain Is tender yet. hut
if the hot weather holds off a little longer
until it Is hardened, the crop will be abso
lutely safe. Mr. Taylor declares the fruit
prospects In the Palouse are excellent, and
apples and other varieties will give bumper
yields.
CALIFORNIA FRUIT WILL BE CHEAP.
Croo Bis and Growers All Anxious to Con
sign. T. Pearson returned yesterday from a
quick trip to the green fruit districts of
California and reported big crops of every
thing. "California Is like Oregon." said Mr.
Pearson, "everything is green and growing.
Shipments of apricots are well under way
and a few Alexander peaches are going
out. Shipping of tragedy plums will begin
next week. Tho grape crop will be late
and in some sections has been hurt by
frost.
"California fruit will be cheap this year.
There will not be much f. o. b. business
and the growers are all anxious to con
sign." Foreign Casoara Bark Quotations.
Advices received from London report
sales of cascara bark at sr. 40s. -which
prices are the equivalent here of p cents
for 1007 bark and cents for older bark.
This removes some of the discouragement
to gatherers, as it indicates an improve
ment In the foreign demand. It is re
ported there are also Eastern buyers in
the market. The latest Issue of th New
York Journal of Commerce, however, re
ports that market slow and nominal at
7 fi Sc.
Buying Hops for Export.
A revival of the export demand for hops
!n the Oregon market was reported yesterday
and some business was put through, but the
particulars were not obtainable. Advices from
New York noted the sale of a lot of Oregons
on that market at 8 cents for export, aim
transactions aggregating 200 bales of States
for the London market.
Fggs Slow and Weak.
The egg market was slow yesterday and
was further weakened by large arrivals in
the afternoon. One dealer offered freely
at IS cents, while others were still hold
ing at 19 cents.
Poultry receipts were light and the de
mand quiet.
There was no change in the butter market
wheh, In general, was firm.
Meeting of Grain Trade.
A meeting of the grain trade members
of the Board of Trade will be held at the
Hoard rooms tomorrow . night. Among
other matters that will be considered will
be the report of the Lombard committee
on the question of trading In futures.

PRICES TO BE CUT
All Steel Products, Except
Rails, Will Be Cheaper.
READJUSTMENT OF WAGES
Latter Factor, in Wall Street's Opin
ion, onsets Benefits to Be De
rived From Price Reduction.
Railway Traffic Increasing.
NEW YORK. June 8. The long-persisting
rumors of a general cut In the price of steel
products gained more authoritative form to
day and it came to be generally betieved
during the day's session of the stock exchange
that substantial reductions would be an
nounced Immediately for all lines except steel
rails. The policy of the steel trade in hold
ing prices at present has been the subject
of varying criticism ever since it was for
mulated and the conviction is general that
the marking down of prices will be the
most effective manner of reviving activ
ity in the trade. The fear that the wage
readjustment which must follow the price
revision may lead to controversy' in the
midat of the National political campaign
is an additional factor militating against
the favorable effect the market had had In
this Incident.
Attention was attracted to the subject of
new capital Issues by the figures of . the
heavy flotation for May and the additional
issues In early contemplation. The May
total of S166.975.000 new stock and bonds,
while somewhat lower than April, is far In
excess of the Usues for May of last year.
The total of 722.652,154, to which the new
Issues since the first of the year have risen,
represent an unprecedented figure for that
period. The proportion of this new financing
which Is devoted to refunding cannot be
ascertained, but the rapid rate of expan
sion of capital liabilities at a period of
business contraction which naturally limits
the rate of capital replenishment, commands
the attention of bankers and Investors. The
additional security proposed for the Union
Pacific bond issue was regarded as signifi
cant of the taste of Investors at thie time
in that direction as much as for the rate of
return offered. The understanding that tho
Union Pacific bonds would not be offered
for public subscription until the middle of
the week kept open the question of what
would be the treatment of the -market by
the forces which have sought to pave the
way for this flotation when It Is fairly out
of the way.
An excellent effect was produced by the
report of further decrease in the number
of idle freight cars In the two weeks ending
May 27. The early strength In stocks was
connected with this report. The later recov
ery was due to the Government crop report
and Its effect on the wheat market.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value,
$2,025,000. United States 2s and 4a regis
tered advanced vi per cent on call.

Wool Outlook in Lake County.
LAKE VIEW. Or., June 8. The outlook for
the sheepmen of this section Is not as
promising as lt was a year ago. Lambing
Is now over and the percentage ran from
88 to 105. which is considered exceptionally
good. However, the market for wool is very
slow at this time; in fact, there are no buy
ers in the field. It has been stated that per
haps 13 or 15 cents would be the prevailing
price. Lat year sheepmen received from
19 to 22 cents.
Most of the men engaged in the sheep in
dustry depend upon the sale of the wool
clip to tide them over until the mutton can
be sold, and if the market should remain
slow the effect will be serious with many.
The range throughout the county is In good
condition and sheep are doing well. Some
complflint is heard that the range is crowded,
but there are not as many sheep In the
county this year as there were laet year.

the publication of the figures caused a de
clirte of nearly one cent in the final mo
ments oc trading, but the market had
previously become quite weak because of

lowest point. July opened HfpOHc higher
