BID UP FOR WHEAT
Buyers in the Country Scram
ble for Grain.
PAY ABOVE LOCAL PRICES
Farmers, However, Are Not Ready
Kellers, Even at the Advance.
Tone Is Weaker at the
Board of Trade.
Something of a scramble to buy wheat
appears to be on in the country. Competi
tion t keen In many of the sections and the
buyers are meeting each other's advanced
bldn with a freedom unusual so early in the
game. Offers are being made east of the
mountains for club wheat on the basis of
87 cents track, Portland, and up to OO cents
Is being offered for bluestem. These prices
are considerably above the values ruling tn
this market, where club is quoted at 8r9
S( cents and bluestem at SO cents. In spite
or the efforts tte buyers are making to se
cure wheat they are not getting much as
the farmera generally are very bullishlly In
clined. At the Board of Trade yesterday the
wheat market was weaker, barley was Ir
regular and oats were strong. September
wheat opened and closed unchanged from
Monday's prices, while December, opening
unchanged, closed at a loss of 1 cent. Both,
deliveries of oats opened at the previous
day's quotation and closed with a gain of
B cents. September barley declined 2
cents at the close and December, which
opened at an advance of 3 cents, main
tained this position. A bid of $1.20 was
made for spot barley.
Receipts for the day were a cars wheat, Z
cars oats, 1784 sacks flour and 12 cars and
2.1A bales hay.

WASHINGTON' WHEAT CROP ESTIMATE
Berries of AH Kinds Scarce In Seattle
Market.
SEATTLE. Uah., July 28. (Special.)
Three large firms today made estimates on
this year's wheat crop. One placed the crop
at 25.000.000 bushels, another at SI3.000.000.
The first car of bluestem wheat arrived here
today. A local mill took the grain.
Rerrles of all kinds continue srarce. The
union nippers today raised their price to
commission men to $1.75 for red and $2 for
black raspberries. Commission men refused
to pay the price offered and the market went
bare. Union shippers have, as a result of
their fight with the commlpslon men. devel
oped new markets in Montana, where large
quantities of berries are being shipped at
present. The apricot supply was short, but
the shortage is believed to be only temporary."
Advices received here from onion-growers
of the state are that thle year's crop will
be a bumper one. Lower prices are expected
to prevail.
New varieties of apples are appearing on
the market dally.
Higher prices on butter are driving the de
mand to poorer francs. 1
Wheat Selling Actively In V mat ilia.
PENDLETON, Or.. "Jttiy 28. (Special.)
With the or.ening price higher than ever
before tn the history of Umatilla County,
t.niatllla County's wheat crop Is being sotd
nearly as rapidly as harvested. More than
100,000 bushels have changed handb since
Saturday en the basis of 73c for club and
T7c for bluestem. Owing to the prevalence
of smut, a large part of this quantity was
really sold at prices from 3c to 10c less
per bushel.
T n co ma Wheat Trices.
TACOMA, July 28. Prices for new crop
wheat were fixed today at 87c for bluestum,
85c for club and 83c for rod. These prices
are lo below previous quotations.
Second Pron In Flour at Tacoma.
TACOMA. Wash.. July 28. (Special.)
Another drop of 20c a barrel In flour was
announced In the market today. This de
cline has been expected by dealers, owing
to the condition of the trade, and it makes
a total drop of 40c a barrel within a few
weeks.
BUTTER ADVANCE! 24 CENTS.
Cheese Is Firm at the Recent Rise
in
Prices.
A 2 -cent advance In top grades of city
creamery butter took effect yesterday morn
ing. In view of the decrease in production
and the sharp rise in the Northern markets,
this change did not come unexpectedly. All
the local creameries did not participate in
the advance; but It is probable they will
all be in line with the new price this morn
ing. While extras are not plentiful, there is
a fairly good supply of No. 2 butter still on
hand.
The cheese market Is very strong at the
recent advance. The North Is a heavy
buyer and as stocks here and at Tillamook
are not heavy another rise in the list Is not
Improbable.
The poultry market is on the eve of a
break. In fact It was found necessary to
hade prices yesterday in order to clean up
supplies. Spring chickens which were more
plentiful than other varieties, were quoted
at 18 cents tn the afternoon.
Eggs were quoted Arm In some quarters
and weak in others. On the whole the
market was slow.
" California's Output of Apricots.
Referring to the apricot situation,
the
pacific Fruit World says:
"The packing of apricota from the early
sections has been progressing for some time,
the fruit so for being remarkably clean and
free from blemishes of any kind, but un
usually small in size, caused by the quantity
of fruit on the trees. The result Is that
there will be a shortage in the higher grade
goods, such as extras and extra standards,
anil they will average smaller in size than
In previous years. Santa Clara County and
Alameda County, although having a heavy
crop, will not be ready before the first of
August. These later sections will not pro
duce as clean crops as the earlier , sections,
and the fruit will not be as free from blem
ishes. The crop this year is estimated at
120.000 tons of fresh fruit, which will yield
22.000 tons dried, or lloo cars of 20 tons
each."
Trying; the Tehaunlepec Route.
For the benefit of shippers In Southern
California, as well as for its own informa
tion, the American-Hawaiian Steamship
Company is to send a cargo of lemons and
other fruit from San Diego to New York
by way of the Tehuantepec Isthmus, in
order to ascertain how quickly the freight
may be landed on the dock at the Eastern
metropolis by that route, and in what con
dition. Bank Clearings.

HIGHEST OF YEAR
Stock Advance Follows Ap
pearance of Taft Speech.
GAINS ARE WELL HELD
Market In Feverish Condition Most
of Day Complicated Situation
in Gould Group Bonds
Are Irregular.
NEW YORK,, July 28. The speculation in
stocks had a good deal of material available
for the formation of conjecture tn the events
which were expected to occur in the course
of the day. These included the delivery of
the speech of acceptance of the nomination for
the presidency by the Republican candidate
and the quarterly report of earnings of the
United States Steel Corporation. There was
Injected Into the situation also the official In
timation that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission would investigate the reason of in
creased freight rates, of which they might
receive notice in advance of the complaints
against these rates. There were, furthermore,
the conference on the affairs of the Gould rail
roads and the surmises which these gave
rise to. The result of theee various factors
was to stir up a considerable degree of fever-
ishnesa in the stock market, which was re
flected in the fluctuations of prices.
The situation in the Gould group came in
for an unexpected amount of attention. The
return from Europe of the head of the sys
tem was followed by statements for publica
tion indicating that plane for providing for
the $8,000,000 Wheeling ft Lake Erie notes
falling due on August 1 and guaranteed by
the Wabash remained to be formulated. This
statement of the Situation caused uneasiness
nd was responsible for the early violent
break in Missouri Pacific. The early Impres
sion wue reversed with the growth of a con
viction that the settlement of the Wheeling
& Lake Brie note matter would involve the
entry into the Gould properties of the Harrl-
man interests, looking to the centralization
of the projected Western Pacific as a com
petitor of the Southern Pacific. Another line
of surmise regarding the new alliance was
indicated by the r-trong tone of the Erie Is
sues. Advantageous arrangements between
the Erie and the Gould Eastern outlet project
were inferred from this movement.
The declaration of the regular quarterly
dividend on the Harriman Pacific and in ad
vance of the ueual period and the announce
ment of the early departure of Mr. Harrimen
on an extended vacation trip kept alive the
supposition of urgency In the working out of
the projected arrangements.
The determination Implied by the statement
of the Interstate Commerce Commission to
oppose an increase In freight rates was at
tributed to the Inspiration of the chief ex
ecutive and was the subject of some troubled
comment in the financial district. Much has
been baaed on the ability of the railroads to
bring about a higher rats of compensation
for transportation services as a method of
extrication from the financial pressure by the
present contracted earnings. The anxiety on
the eirbject was of not long effect In the
stock market, as the tone gradually became
strong.
After the appearance of ' Judge Taft's
speech of acceptance, prices generally reached
the highest of the day. These went to the
highest level of the year In some cases, in
cluding United States Steel, the copper and
mining Industrials and the Pacific railroad
stocks. Reports from authoritative sources
pointed to the substantial betterment of the
health of the copper market. It was known
that the United States Steel quarterly report
would not be published until after the market
closed, and it was counted upon that any
unfavorable showing in the report ' would be
accepted as satisfactory. It remains to be
seen how the fact will be digested that un
filled orders on handB June 30 had fallen to
3,313,000 tons, a falling off of 453.000 tons
from the March 31 showing, and the lowest
tonnage on the order books since the Septem
ber 30 report in 1904.

STEADIES AT GLOSE
Wheat Holds Its Own After
Weak Opening.
FLUCTUATIONS IN CHICAGO
Favorable Weather Induces Selling
at Start, but Bullish Factors
Lalcr Appear and Most of
Loss Is Regained.
CHICAGO. Julv 28. Favorable weather for
the new eror; waa one of the chief reasons
for the weakness In the wheat market today.
At the close, the September delivery showed
a net loss of 4c. The wheat market mani
fested its greatest weakness during the first
halt hour of the day on general selling by
commission houses and local holders. Of
ferings were brought out chiefly by liberal
local receipts, a sharp decline at Liverpool
and by a continuance of good weather In
the Northwest, which was favorable to the
rapid maturing of the new crop. The mar
ket became much steadier during the last
part of the session because of buying by
shorts and bull leaders' support. A falling
off In receipts at Southwestern markets, an
estimate of much smaller receipts nere to
morrow, exoort demand and unconfirmed re
ports of black rust In the wheat fields of the
Northwest were the principal Duinsn iactors
In the latter part of the session. The mar
ket closed steady. September opened
c lower at S4jNc. sold between SSS9
88 He and 89 He and closed at 8mC.
The feature of the corn market was the
break of lft2c In September cn the open
ing transactions. The Ju.ly delivery at tn.
same time showed a loss or nearly zc ana
deferred futures of about lc. The slump
was due to the efforts of the several lead
ing holders to socure profits, owing to the
likelihood that the movement will be much
heavier within the next few days. The close
was steady. .September opened 2c
lower at 726'7Sc held within that rang,
and closed at 75 c.
Oats were weak early. In sympathy with
the surrounding depression, hut rallied later
in the day on buying by a leading bull and
closed strong. September opened !9c
to 814c lower at 42 V5 6 42o, sold up to
43 He and closed at the top'.
Provisions were strong on buying by local
packers. At the close, September pork was
up 17 at S15.521,- L,ard was 12lfic
higher at $9.37 Vs. Ribs were up 15c at
