FANCY WHEAT PRICE
Exporters Buying Club at 92
and Bluestem at 95.
ARE ABOVE THE MARKET
Competition Between Few Firms
Gladdens Heart of Farm
erPrunes Very Firm at
AH Coast Points.
Fancy prices are bring paid for wheat hy
Portland exporters In the Inland Empire.
There la competition among two or three
of them evidently to ee which can pay the
highest price. The farmera are enjoying the
row and exiling with more or 1pm readiness.
It ta a queatlon how lonlt the ecrap will
continue, but it Is probable that before
long the buyer will have all they want of
It and quit, when the market will jet down
again to the export basla
It Is surmised that the buying at extreme
prices Is for the purpose of starting the
wheat moTement to warehouses, as la
usually dona at the opening of the season.
It Is also hinted, hoaever, that soma of the
export nrms are taking advantage of the
situation to force their competitors to pay
prices considerably above the market. At any
rate, club wheat has been bought on the
basis of l and 92 centa Portland, while the
export value of club Is not over 89 cents ac
cording to yesterdays cables, and one or
two centa under this would be a fair price
according to buyers for the English market.
Transactions In bluestem on the basis of M
ffM cents are also reported. These stiff
prices being paid in Isolated Instances by a
few buyers make It difficult to quote actual
local values.
Ninety-one cents was bid for December
wheat at the Board of Trade yesterday.
This was within a cent of the price at
which wheat waa offered for that delivery.
It was as close as buyers and sellers could
get together and the reduction of the spread
leads to the hope that they will eventually
get to the point of doing business. The
feeling waa firm all around. September
closed at Ml centa bid. an advance of 2 cents
over the last price of Monday. Oats were
steady and barley weak.
A meeting of the grain trade will be held
at noon today to pass upon a number of
applications for membership.
Receipts for the day were 8 cars and 050
sacka wheat. 1 car and 30 sacks oats. S
cars barley and cars and 270 bales hay.

PRUNE MARKET 13 VERT FIRM.
Serious Shortage ts Reported From Clark
County.
The new-crop Oregon prune market la
quoted firm on a 31-cent bag basis. Soma
rales were made early in the season as low
as a 2 -cent basis, hut that was before the
crop situation could be clearly foreseen.
Business covering three carloads of 190H
Oregon Italians for October shipment waa
reported yesterday for account of a Boston
buyer. The sales were made on the basis
of .I1 cents for the four sixes, f. o. b. In
hags, and the business Is said to have been
done on the term at the California packers'
contract. A similar bid on a further lot
of two carloads waa refused. It Is said that
holders are asking a premium of cent
on 3s and In some Instances a little pre
mium la asked on Os.
No huslness of Importance between grow
ers and packera la reported yet as growers
are holding olf to aee what the outcome will
be. According to an authority on prunes,
the crop of Clark County la a practical
failure this year. "Early In the season."
ha said. "It looked like a third of a crop.
Now they will not have 25 cara to ship, so
heavy has been the drop. Last year the
county had a fair crop and aent out about
225 cara
"Oregon U faring better than Washington.
Around Roseburg there will be a very good
crop though half of It la Petites. In the
Salem district the drop Is reported to be
no greater than usual, and if that la the
case there will be about a half a crop In
the Valley."
In California, as In Oregon, the tendency
on prune prices Is upward. Discussing the
situation, a California writer says:
"Growers see the prune crop becoming
lighter week by week. The tone of the mar
ket has gradually strengthened and la
very firm at present. An estimate now
placea the coming yield at no more than
e0.000.000 pounds. Future trading ta taking
place freely at a 3r4c range, with a
premium of lc on 40s and lHc on 30a. Spot
rales of the fast decreasing lets of old
prunes are being transacted at the trifle
hardened range of 3K63HC."
CANTALOUPES FROM THE DALLES
Very Few Care of Watermelons Are In
Transit to Portland.
Among the fruit receipts yesterday was a
car of Eloerta peacbea and seedless grapes.
The Elbertas sold at $161.10 and the
grapes were quoted at $1.35 61.50. Two cars
of peaches and pears and a car of lemons
will be unloaded this morning.
Watermelons are cleaning up well' and
very few cara are rolling. Some cantaloupes
are coming from The Dalles and offer at
S2.50tf2.75. A mixed car of casabaa and
Klechly sweet watermelons arrived.
A small shipment of sweet potatoes cams
in and was quoted at 7 cents. A California
wire aald the weather there la too hot for
sweets. . There la a temporary scarcity of
new potatoes on the street.
T.CAiH BEGIN TO ACCUMULATE.
Extra Are Finn at 25c, bat Firsta Are

RESUME THE CLIMB
Upward Movement Again
Under Way in Stocks.
LARGER OUTSIDE DEMAND
Assurance of Better Times In Busi
ness World Is Underlying
Basis of Strength of
Market.
NEW TORK, Aug. 4 Whatever misgiv
ings were felt yesterday over the speculative
situation were laid aside today and opera
tions for higher prices of stock were re
sumed with a volume and aggressiveness
that argued the possesalon of the largest,
resource and a,' feeling of unbounded con
fidence. Commission houses admit but a
moderate, although a growing, increase In
the outside participation In the market.
The great concentration of the dealing was
shown by the large orders coming from In
dividual houses and also by more or less
congestion In single stocks.
The grain markets were omewhat less
excited today. This was the only marked
change in the situation from yesterday.
News regarding the crop continued to show
unfavorable weather conditions In the corn
and Spring wheat belts. The weekly bulletin
of the weather bureau gave official con
firmation to the existence of these condi
tions up to last night, and the official,
weather map this morning showed no ma
terial subsidence of the drouth and heat In
the districts where they are most feared.
The wires brought further reports also from
private experts alleging heavy damage to
the yield. The Bprlng wheat grangera were
among the strongest slocks In the list.
Destructive forest fires were reported to
be sweeping uniterruptedly over a region of
British Columbia, and . employes of the
Canadian pacific were ordered out on
strike.
Further remark of E. H. Harrlman were
offered for consideration and the specula
tive contingent seemed to derive more suste
nance from them than from yesterday's
statements. Mr. Harrlman's expressed
opinion of the speculative situation and of a
belief that the advance will continue "As
long as condition continue natural and as
long as the people are normal," was ac
cepted In the stock market as specific ap
proval of the movement for higher price.
Probably the outgiving was responsible for
an Important part of the new activity In
the market.
Assurance of prolonged ease of money, be
lief that prosperous harvest will be made
and' the restoration of business activity,
which i thu expected to be stimulated,
form the general basis for a movement
which seems proof against the usual rules
of pause and reaction which govern such
movements. Many stocks touched the
highest prices yet reached this year.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value,
$3,312,000. United State bonds were un
changed on call.

Foreign Grain Centers Fall to Re

at Chicago Close Is
Very Weak-
CHICAGO, Aug.. 4. The wheel market was
Inclined to be weak all day, although Indi
vidual mild rallies occurred on buying by
shorts based on freeh reports of damage to
the growing crop In the Northwest, but many
traders were disposed to discount to a large
extent the numerous damage reports. The
market was depressed by a report that from
a mlecroscoplc examination of 100 sample
of wheat taken from widely-separated sec
tions of the Northwest only Isolated traces of
rust were shown and In each case the grain
was too far advanced to be injured by future
developments of the blight. The failure of
the export market after three days to re
spond fully to the advance tended to weaken
the local market. The close was weak. Sep
tember opened 0o lower at 3c to 94c.
sold off. to 93c and closed at 935j-93,Sc.
The corn market was weak all day. owing
to free selling by local holders. The weak
ness was accentuated late In the Besslon by
reports of rain from several localities In the
corn belt. The close was weak. September
opened down ffc at 75c to 76c. sold
at 76c and then declined to 75c. The close
was at 7576c.
Oats were inclined to be weak because of
the slump in wheat and corn, but active
buying of the May delivery by a leading bull
tended to hold prices steady. September
opened 0c there at 45c to 45c. sold
at 44045c and then advanced to 45c. The
close was at 4fic.

ASTORIA, Or.. Aug. 4. (Special.)'
There is not at the present time, nor hnB
there been this season thus far. a big run
of salmon In the Columbia River. During
the past ten days the fish have been coming
fairly well, but, with the exception of last
Saturday at the Union Fishermen's Co-operative
cannory. there has not been a single
plant which was unable to clean up US
floors every day. On Friday night some
of the Co-operative glllnetters made good
hauls in the south channel, and the cannery
crew was compelled to work until 11 o'clock
at night to clean up.
There has been no surplus of ttsh at any
cannery, and the only effort, so far as can
be ascertained by any up-river cannerymaii
to buy raw fish here, was on Saturday,
when Mr. Seufert, of The Dalles, told Man
ager Kankkonen, of the Co-operative can
nery, he wanted 30 tons a day. and offered
to pay the price the fishermen receive,
which Is 5 cents per pound, less the cost
of handling, the cost of Icing and the
freight to The Dalles.
The offer was not considered seriously,
but Mr. Kankkonen replied that if his can
nery should get more flah than It can han
dle, he would give Mr. Seufert a -nance to
buy them. a

LIVES WITHOUT BRAIN
Child Born in Xew York Hospital
Astonishes Scientists.
. NEW YORK. Aug. 4. As a refutation
of the axiom that no human being can
live without a brain, the physicians of
Bellevue Hospital are citing the case af
Marie Glacomo, who died at the Institu
tion last night at the age of 40 hours.
An autopsy revealed the fact that she
had come Into the world , practically
brainless. The child when Seven hours
old was taken to the hospital by its
father. Leonardo Glacomo. He said he
had brought the child for treatment be
cause there was something wrong with
its head. When the child was unwrapped
from voluminous clothes lt was almost a
startling sight. Its head was almost flat
on top and Us eyes stood out from their
Bockets. It was. however, breathing nor
mally and cried as an ordinary infant
does. Unlike most Infants less than a
day old. It took nourishment greedily.
It was thought at the hospital that the
shape of the child's head was a malfor
mation that possibly the soft bones of
the skull would respond to a slow mould
ing process that would restore the head
to a normal shape. It was not dreamed
that the Infant was wholly without
brains.
Last night, however, the child died
while it was being fed. There was noth
ing to indicate approaching death and
no struggle. Simply the infant ceased to
breathe. An autoDsv revealed that be

scarcely more than an atom, the infant
had absolutely no brain. The doctors
declare there Is not another case of a
human living without a brain known to
science.
Since the unification of the Wesley Broth
erhood and the Brotherhood of St. Paul In
the Methodist church, which hrought 1500
societies together, the membership, which
was 150.000 at the time of the union, hss
taken a rapid stride forward.
