ALL DETAILS FIXED
Board of Trade Is Now Ready
to Deal in Grain Options.
COMMENCE ON JULY 1
Ma tiers Relating to Warehouse
Charges and Depository Are Set
tled at Meeting of Department.
Membership Applications.
At a meeting of the Brain department of
the Board of Trade yesterday afternoon, the
final details of the option committee's re
port were passed upon and the way cleared
for dealings in futures. The meeting was
attended by nearly every member of the
department.
The rules as submitted by the grain op
tion committee, composed of Gay Lombard,
J. E. Murphy and A. Berg, were adopted
as a whole and" it was agreed that every
member of the department will he present
at the opening eall on July 1 at 11:30 A. M.
The question of warehouse charges was
settled in the following rule:
'Uniform storage rates and other charges
made by regular warehouses shall be fixed
by the grain option committee under the
authority of the board of directors and they
shall be subject to their supervision. Regu
lar and customary storage charges under
this rule shall not exceed 12Vic per ton per
month on all varieties of grain, bran and
mlllfeed. All storage earned shall be due
and payable at the end of the current sea
son, pArts of a month, for the purpose of
adjusting storage dates, to be paid pro rata
at the monthly rate."
The warehouse rules further provide that
regular warehouses must be represented on
the membership roll of the exchange, either
through their proprietor, manager or lessee.
The question of a bank of deposit was
also settled and it was decided that the
Canadian Bank of Commerce be appointed
as the bank through which the margins are
to be deposited.
All members will be furnished with a
copy of the rules. The secretary reported
that a number of applications from out-of-town
grain firms at Spokane, Walla Walla,
Oolfax and San Francisco had been re
ceived. These applicants will be received
at the expiration of the required ten days
posting on the blackboard of the exchange.
Sufficient space will be provided on ' the
blackboard for the Portland quotations of
futures.
PREDICTS AX ENORMOUS APTI.K CHOP
Estimate of a 'ew York Expert Other
Fruits In rienty Also.
tV. N. White, an apple expert of New York
. City, takes a bearish view of the future of
the apple market. He has been investigat
ing apple conditions on the Pacific Coast
and declares emphatically that the crop
in Oregon, Washington. Idaho and Cali
fornia will be three times as large -this
year ns it was last year. Mr. White says in
a letter:
"The Immense amount of ynung orchards
tiirtt have been planted there during the
post ten years and are now coming into
bearing with good crops will mean the
quantity being doubled every year for the
next five or six years. It is true that the
pear crop In Oregon Is not so heavy as it
was Inst year, but they have the best pear
crop In California that they have had for
many years. They have the heaviest apri
cot crop that they have had for ten years,
and as regards the crop of prunes for years
they have been growing more than they
can use. I have seen prunes sold in 'Cali
fornia at 2 a ton by the carloads to hog
feeders. I do not mean fresh prunes; I
mean dry ones that have been left over and
gone mouldy. Last year, owing to the short
ness of fruit crops all over the country,
many hundred carloads of prunes, particu
larly from some parts of Oregon and Idaho,
were shipped to the Middle West and East
ern markets and sold in their green state;
sold by the growers out there from $ltt to
fl a ton. This year there will be very
little market for green prunes and they
will have to dry all they have. But believe
me, there will be enough prunes to go
around.
BETTER TRADE IX FRUIT EXPECTED
Demand Will Be Stimulated by Clearer
Weather. v
With the prospect of better weather this
week the Front-street fruit Jobbers look for
a much better movement than last week.
Trade was of fair volume yesterday. The
carlot arrivals consisted of three cars of
bananas, mostly green, and a mixed car of
peaches and plums.
Cantaloupes have declined to $2.2582.50
per crate and the lower price are working
off better. Most of the peaches arriving
are of small size, which Interferes with
their sale. The general run of peaches
bring T5S5 cents per box. Cherry receipts
were light yesterday and the market was
steady Strawberries sold at a wide range,
the lWt shipping stock bringing $1.7.1, while
poor stuff was offered at 75 cents to ft, and
some lot went as low as 50 cents per
crate.
Tomatoes have declined, Merceds now
being quoted at ft s 1.25 per box and
Brawleys at f 1.50 per crate.
STEADY MOVE IX BUTTER MARKET
Kggs Are Slw and I'nc hanged Uncertainty
as to Poultry Prices. '
City creameries continue to report an
' active and firm butter market with no pros
pect of change In price In the immediate
future. On Front street the movement is
fair.
Eggs started the week slow at unchanged
prices. There Is much complaint of quality,
as is usual at this time of. year, and the
Jobbers and commission men are urging
their correspondents to be prompt In ship
ping, as there is no sale whatever for held
eggs.
Poultry receipts were light yesterday and
last week's prices were quoted. It is un
certain yet what course the market will
take this week.
Ike County Wool Held Bark.
I.A KEV1EW, Or.. June 22. The wool sit
uation in this section remains practically
unchanged. No price has been established
and few sales, if any, have been made. It is
evident that the wool growers have a better
understanding of the situation than in for
mer years and they are holding back until
a price has been established in other sec
tions. lake county wool is among the best
produced in Oregon and usually commands
a very good price. Several Kastern buyers
are now In the field, and the sheepmen be
lieve they will get the top price by holding
back for a time.

TROUBLE IN THE 1
Rock Island Holders Anxious to
Get Out.
MUCH SELLING PRESSURE
Break in These Securities Vnsettles
Entire Market Closing Tone
Is Very Weak Bonds
Are Heavy.
NEW YORK, June 22. The weakness of
stocks today gave an impression of less
paeslveness than the occasional droop with
Intervals of Tecovery last week. There was
only a small expansion In the volume of the
dealings to account ior this appearance. The
active deelre shown to get out of holdings of
one or two stocks was largely accountable
for the changed tone of the dealings. Rock
Island securities were the conspicuous ex
ample. In continuance of a sudden declino
which commenced In the closing dealings on
Saturday and which had considerable in
fluence in unsettling the tone.
The rumors which circulated today in con
nection with the break in Rock Island
seemed to be more in the nature of surmise
prompted by the movement of the stocks
than any Informed opinions. The movement
gave rise to some fears of financial embar
rassment facing the company or some one
of Ita related companies in the complicated
series of subsidiaries which distinguishes this
enterprise. More than once during the last
few months It has been reported that a
comprehensive reorganization plan was In
contemplation. Today's rumors Mnted at a
comlr.g bond issue and even at a receivership,
but these rumors were discredited in official
quarters. Another supposition was of heavy
lorses from flood damage to the company's
pn-rerty, but this was also denied.
The weakness of the Rock Island securities
wan of sympathetic effect on the whole stock
market. There was nothing In the general
news to prompt selling of stocks.
The accumulation o.f banking reserves is
reaching a point that seems to necessitate
active measures to find employment for thesa
greet sums. Paris took gold from London
toc.ay and the unsatisfied appetite of that
center and of Berlin for the precious metal
constitutes the only ripple in the money mar
ket. Reports of the placing of part of the
new issue of the National Railroad of Mexi
co 'with Paris bankers were believed to ex
plain the decline in our foreign exchange mar
ket. Traffic officials of the great railroad sys
tems spoke in a tone of some encouragement
of the business outlook, although having
small actual increase in tonnage movement
to report.
Weather in the Winter ewheat region was
reported Ideal for harvesting, and this cor
tects a condition regarding which growing
anxiety was beginning to be felt. The effect
of this news was partly neutralized by the
strength in the grain markets. The closing
tone was weak.
A further break in the Rock Island collat
eral bonds" and another fractional shading of
the new Union Pacific 4s were features of
the bond market, which was heavy. Total
cales. par value, $2,536,000. United State
bonds were unchanged on call.

Bullish Grain Statistics and
Bearish Crop News.
CHICAGO PIT NERVOUS
Narrowing of Spread Between July
and September Options Jormer '
Delivery Closes Steady and
Later Months Strong.
CHICAGO, June 22. The wheat market was
nervous all day because of bullish statistics
on the one hand and favorable weather for
harvesting on the other. The feature of the
trade was the urgent demand for the Sep
tember delivery and the narrowing of the
spread between that . option and the July
delivery. Several of the leading houses were
free sellers of July and active buyers of Sep
tember. The selling pressure on the nearby
month was caused by the excellent weather
for harvesting In the Southwest. The prin
cipal bullish influences were advances by the
leading European markets, Liverpool excepted,
a decrease of 7,000,000 bushels in -the auiount
of breadstuffs on passage, a liberal falling
off in the world's shipments and reports of
small yields in Kansas. The market clceed
steady for July and strong for September and
Pecember. July lgijc to 1494c lower at
8oy,(g 8014c. advanced to 87V.c and closed at
&6!4(gS694c.
The corn market was strong all day. The
selling of September at 94c over July was the
feature of the trading. July closed firm at
69ijc.
Oats were strong early in the day in sym
pathy with wheat and corn, but eased off
later, owing to free selling by leading longs.
July closed at 4514c, the low point.
Provisions were strong throughout the ses
sion on an active general demand which was
based chiefly upon a 1016c advance in live
hogs. At the close September pork was up
214c; lard was unchanged, and ribs were
714(510c higher.
Leading futures ranged as follows:

GI& EXCURSION TO DENVER
IiAFK PENCE ARRANGES INV1TA
TIOXS TO OREGOXIAXS.
Special Entertainment to Be Pro
vided, and Railroad orfers
' Special Train.
Through tho Influence of Lafe
Pence, of this city, 100 officials and
public men of this state are to have
the unusual privilege of attending: the
coming; Democratic National Conven
tion at Denver. Mr. Pence, who was
formerly a Congressman from Colo
rado, and returned only a short time
ago from a visit to Denver, arranged
the preliminary details with the offi
cials there, and they have promised
special entertainment for the visitors
from Portland during their stay In the
Colorado metropolis. It is proposed to
have them remain not only during the
convention, but several days after lt
lias adjourned, when they will be
shown the various points of interest
in the city. It is proposed to have,
Mayor Lane appoint 50 city officials,
Judge Webster appoint 15 county offi
cials and employes. Governor Cham
berlain 15 state officials, and the re
maining 20 to be chosen from tho vari
ous commercial organizations of the
city.
The passenger department of the
Southern Pacific Company has advised
Mr. Pence that if the 100 invitations
are accepted a special train will be
furnished, consisting of eleepers and
diner, and if the matter is not delayed,
an observation car can in all proba
bility be secured.
As an evidence of the nnusual cour
tesy which has been accorded the offi
cials of thl city and state by' the con
vention authorities, through the efforts
of Mr. Pence, it is known that 5000 ap
plications for commissions as employes
of the convention have been made to
John I. Martin. sergeant-at-arms.
Many of these were made by men and
women of wealth who are desirous of
witnessing the convention, even though
they have to engage to perform menial
taeks to do so.
INTEREST IN CHAUTAUQUA
Gladstone Park Assembly Xext
Month Will Bo Well Attended.
The Willamette Valley Chautauqua
Assembly, to be held at Gladstone Park
July 7 to 19 Inclusive, will be a great
success in both the programme and the
attendance. The splendid array of
talent, including Hon. John Sharp Wil
liams, of Mississippi, and Bishop Rob
ert Mclntyre. the great "prince of the
platform"; the excellent work of the
chorus, led by Dr. R. A. Heritage, and
the well-recognized Summer schools,
which have always been the backbone
of the Chautauqua these, together
with many other important features
speak most eloquently of the merit of
the programme. The work of the spe
cial promoter Is creating much Interest
in the assembly in all parts of the Wil
lamette Valley. More inquiries have
been made and more programmes have
been sent out than in any previous sea
son. There haa been some talk of run
ning a special Chautauqua train from
Eugene to Portland to accommodate
the hosts of people coming from the
different sections of the Valley. Eu
gene is considering the project of run
ning a "Eugene" train, and turning
out en masse on July 10, to hear Hon.
John Sharp Williams in the afternoon
and Dr. Alfred Montgomery, the great
painter.'at night.
Beautiful souvenir programmes have
been left at the O. P. ticket office.
First and Alder streets, also at the
Portland Trust Company of Oregon,
and the office of the Y. M. C. A. and
T. W. C. A., and at office of The (9ie
gonian. The demand for these have
been so great that only a limited num.
ber are left.
GROCERS PLAN FOR PICNIC
Annual .Outing Will Be Held at
Bonneville on July 15.
Portland grocers will frolic at Bonne
ville July 15. Special committees are
arranging the details of the annual
picnic and stunts that are new to the
fraternity of food purveyors are being
arranged. A special train will be char
tered for the grocers and their families
and the day promises to be one long
succession of delights.
The picnickers will leave this city
about 8 A. M. and will return to Port-;
land about 9 o'clock at night. They
propose to crowd just as much fun Into
the Intervening hours as possible.
Nothing will be left undone to provide
for the entertainment of the grocers
and their friends.
Secretary Merrick, of the Portland
Retail Grocers' Association, is arrang
ing the programme for the day and he
promises some surprises. It has been
the custom, every year for the stunts
provided tJ eclipse the former annual
picnics and it is promised that the en
tertainment to be provided this year
will prove no exception. In addition
to a baseball game that will provoke
a good deal of mirth from the specta
tors, there will be all kinds of sports
and prizes will be offered in all events.
A large orchestra will be taken along
to enliven the occasion. The picnic
dinner, of course, will be the big at
traction on the trip and the spread
promises to be particularly good.
