F Scramble to Fill Warehouses in Country. ALL IN THE COMPETITION Buyers Pay t'p to Basis of 90 Cents for Club and 92 Cents for Blue Stem for Some Iots Ex porters Buying Heavily. There 1s keen competition between wheat buyers In the Inland Empire and the market la consequently strong, with an advancing tendency. Th local market la Quoted at 90 eenta for bluestem. 87 for ctub and 88 "for forty fold, but In aome lnatancea It f known that better prlcea have been paid, and amall sales of club at? 90 and bluestem at 92 cents are reported. Everybody appears to be In the market, exporters, mlllera and warehouse men. The exporters are the heaviest buyers, some of them taking on wheat at the rate of a cargo and over a day. While they atate that their cablee do not Justify the price, that arc being paid, they are not deterred in their operations by the condltlona abroad. Thre la a- scramble on among them for storage wheat and they aeem willing to pay up several cents above export valuea In order to get wheat atarted to their ware houses. Farmers are showing more will ingness this week to meet the buyers, and bids are being generally accepted in most sections. Most of the trading to date la reported In the Umatilla and Walla Walla sections. Buyers In Morrow County opened the sea on by offering 70 cents for club and a pre mium of 2 cents for forty-fold and 4 cents for bluestem. Thia Is the first year that Morrow County farmers have given forty fold wheat a thorough trial. Thia new variety has been sown heretofore only In email Iota owing to the fact that seed was hard to get. While thia season has been very dry and is an off year, the results with a good-slsed acreage of forty-fold are met with much favor and thia variety will no doubt take the lead In the future. The advantages claimed are that forty-fold is earlier to mature, commands a better price than club, being a good milling wheat, and yields heavier than any other variety. The main objection to forty-fold Is the fact that It shatters more than other varieties. Harvest Is now well atarted all over Mcr row County, saya the Heppner Gaxette. While the yield la light, there will be many fields with good yields. A few fields In Eight Mile will go from 25 to M bushels to the acre. Winnard Brcs.' wheat, which Is being harvested with a combine. Is going 20 bushels to the acre. A leading buyer at Heppner estimates the countya yield at 900.000 bushels At the Board of Trade yesterday buyers and sellers failed to ret together. For De cember. 87. 88 and 90 cents were ofTered. with 92 cents asked. September closed firm at 87 cents. Little Interest was shown In oata or barley. Receipts for the 4S hours ending at noon were 27 cara wheat. 1 car and 408 sacks oata. 3 cara and 120 sacks barley and S cars and 434 bales hay. The range of futurea waa as follows: WHEAT. Open.

Other vegetables arc about steady. Fltchard on the New York Crop. Charles I.. Fltchard. a hopgrower and dealer of Independence, has returned from an extended trip through the Eastern states. He says the New York hop crop this year will not be over 35.000 bales, but the quality will be fine. The light yield, he says. Is the result of a decreased acreage, many farmers going out of the hop-growing busi ness and devoting their landa to more profitable purposes. Good Fruit Crops at The Dalles. District Fruit Commissioner James H. Reld returned yealerday from a trip to the fruit districts around The Dalles and saya the cropa generally are looking fine. The output of peaches and pears will be very good, and the quality of the pears espe cially will be excellent. The apple crop could not be better and the fruit Is abso lutely without a blemish. There win be a fair crop of watermelons though canta loupea will be short. Bank Clenrlnjs. Clearings of the Northwestern cities yesterday were as follows: fleering. Balances.

THE MORNING STOCK PRICES SAG Upturn in Wheat One of the Depressing Factors. EFFECT OF GOULD DEAL Money on Call Falls Below One Per Centf for" the First Time In Many Months Bonds Hold Steady. NEW YORK. August 8. Leaders of a stock market movement rely more on the Monday market to show how much response to their leadership has been attracted from the world outside of Wall street than on any other Index. The explanation is found In the proneness of the man of -affairs to begin new undertaklnga with the opening of the week, or with the beginning of aome similar defined period. Many Important commission houses send out at the end of the week reviews of the market and fore casts of the prospects that are more de tailed and elaborate than the dally In formation sent out. As a consequence. Mon day morning often flnda an accumulation of ordera In commission houses for execu tion that represent a new phase In the market. It is the effort of the professional operator in stocks to take advantage of these new phases to his profit, previous ope rations of thia clasa being wholly directed to the possible attraction of this outside Interest. The violence of the upturn in the wheat msrket magnified the Influence of the re ports of damage to Spring wheat. E. H. Harrlman's own description of the Wheel ing Ac Lake Erie note settlement a "sim ply a financial transaction made necessary to save a railroad and thereby benefit all of them alike", took seme of the glamour off the inferences widely drawn from the Incident In last week's apeculatlve surmises. His reference to doing what he could to prevent many more of the railroads from going into the hands of receivers was not greatly relished by the speculative element. Reported activities of the Department -of Justice conveyed an Impression that the Harriman combination of railroad systems was to come under fire in a short time. The price of copper rose again and the report that a large rail order had been placed aroused hopes that the hitherto dor mant department of the steel trade was to revive. Time loans for five months are niw suf ficient to carry borrowers over the end of the year and some relaxation was noted In the rate for this period. Money on call, which haa been sinking to a ruling rate of 1 per cent, today loaned at per cent, falling below 1 per cent for the first time. The market closed Irregular and dull. Prices continued to sag, except In a few stocks among the industrials. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value. $3,306,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

SEEK WIVES FOR PRINCES King of Servia Favors American Brides for Sons. CHICAGO, Aug-. 8. The Inter Ocean today says: Cablegrams were received in Chicago yesterday that the King of Servia de sired to form alliances with Chicago heiresses for his two sons. Already an emissary is on his way to this country to choose two American girls for the honor. The idea of the King of Servia has so greatly pleased the Czar of Russia that he has gone so far as to agree that he will stand Godfather to the first born to either Prince through his American union. To General Arthur Toherep-Splrido-vtch, president of the Slavonic League of Moscow, was given tho delicate work of deciding on the two Chicago girls the Princes are to marry. He has al ready left Servia and is expected to reach Chicago In about a week. The General admitted he was on his way to America for the purpose of find ing wives for the two Princes, but that, while he desired to find the girls in wealthy families, poverty was not a bar to a union with the royal house, lie declared the King wished his sons to marry into the "Blue Blood of Amer ica," and all that he required of the girls was beauty, birth and breeding. CLOUDBURST IN NEVADA One Liife Ixst and Much Property Destroyed at Verdie. KENO. Aug. 3. A telephone message from Verdie, Nev.. says a destructive cloudburst visited that section yesterday in which one life was lost, scores of livestock, cabins and a great quantity of logs destroyed. Miss Etta Tifley. aged 24, daughter of John Tifley, foreman of the Verdie Mill & Lumber Company, waa on the porch of the lumber office located In the canyon, when the water, fully ten feet high, rushed against the building, carrying Miss Tifley with tIt. beneath the floods. Luke Smith, an old timer, is reported to have lost his life also, but this can not be confirmed. A cloudburst occurring In Spanish Canyon near' Steamboat Springs yester day, caught several people in the rush of waters, but after battling desperately they finally saved themselves. McM. Ross and James Burke were the most severely hurt and their escape is consid ered marvelous. Much livestock, timber and a ranch were destroyed. Negroes and Sailors Clash. NORFOLK, Va., Aug. 3. There was a serious clash between negroes and United States sailors in Berkeley and South Nor folk last night, and but for the timely ar rival of the civil authorities, who took charge of three negroes with whom the trouble originated, and gave them police aid, there might have been loss of life. It is said the sailors from the St. Helena naval training station had been taking corn from the negroes. One of the ne groes flred upon the sailors, but said he did so only to frighten them off. The sea men then drove the negroes into their house and many shots, it Is said, were flred into . this. The police then called upon the naval authorities for aid and the C.
