13 THE aiOiOTXG.OREGONIAX. SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1903. PACK WILL BE LIGHT Output of Canned Vegetables Showing Decrease. ESTIMATES BEING CUT Jobbers 'ot Disturbed by the Pros pect of Short Deliveries Local Millfeed Market Stronger. Fruit Trad Active. That the American pack of canned -vegetable wilt be a light one this season la now assured, reports from the different pack ing sections of the country fully confirming the early expectations of shortage, which were based en the prolonged dry weather during the Spring and early Summer. The subsequent rains came too late to offset the effect of the drouth. ' Estimates of the probable tomato pack In Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey are subject to constant cutting. Very many of the Banners In those states new believe that they are not likely to get more than halt a pack. At a meeting of the Trl Etates Packers- Association, reports sub mitted by Its members Induced that organi sation to Issue a statement to the effect that the pack will not exceed 70 per cent of a normal output !n the several states covered by Its membership- The New York State pea packers will deliver much less than the face of their contracts. It is said. Borne of them will be 50 per cent short on tbeir deliveries, while those who will make the fullest shipments are understood to fall 25 per cent short of their contract obliga tions. Corn prospects, so for as Maine la concerned, are reported to be good and If weather conditio is continue favorable full deliveries will be made by packers In that section, the latest advices state. Corn conditions in New York are Irregular and most of the packers, according to leports. will make short deliveries, the estimated shortage being from 30 to SO per cent. In the South corn prospects have been im proved of late by favorable weather con ditions. Still some of the packers there de cline to take chinces and are out of the market at present as sellers of futures. The shortage In the probable pack of vegetables Is not disturbing the Jobbing trade. In fact, there Is apparent a feeling of relief that shsrt deliveries are likely to be the rule. This may be traced to the fact that the retail trade has bought fewer futures than for many past seasons, and still turns a cold shoulder to efforts .to Induce them to anticipate their wants. In other lines of futures, business Is anything but active. MILL FEED MARKET IS VERY FIRM Demand Exceeds the Available Supply. Wheat Is Quiet. The local mill feed market has taken on a very firm tone. The demand la Improv ing and large handlers report they have orders larger than they can fill.

IS Distinct Improvement in Dis tributive Trade. FEELING OF CONFIDENCE Better Inquiry for Lumber Affects Prices Collections Are More Prompt Features of Iron and Steel Trade. NEW YORK, Aug. 21. Bradetreefs to morrow will eay: While conservatism still affects purchasing, the number of buyers In leading Northern and Western centers Is very large and there is a distinct gain In the Jobbing distribution of Fall and Winter dry goods, shoes, clothing, hats and millinery. Optimism ae to the future is noted and the practical completion of the grain harvest, especially of Spring wheat, and the advance of the corn crop to ward maturity have made for an accentuation of the more confident feeling. Among the leading Industries the most nota ble feature Is the general expansion in In quiry for lumber, with prices showing a dis tinct hardening and preparations making fot the resumption of operations at mills In- the South, the Northwest and on the Pacific Coast. Tho features In the iron and steel trade are the Quietness In pig Iron and the Im provement In the dejnand for railroad sup plies such as light track material and cars. Relatively the best reports as to Jobbing trade distribution come from the Southwest and the states west of the Mississippi. Collections show signs of Improvement, es pecially where the early crop movement has begun, bflt there are a number of reports of lagging settlements and payments as -a whole are not yet up to rnomal.

Seattle Creamerymen Not Disposed to Advance Butter Quotations. Poultry Prices Lifted. . SEATTLE. Wash.. Aug. 21. (Special.) Wheat buying in the Interior at 80 cents was reported today. This price is higher relatively than the market here. Dealers pro fess not to understand why such high prices are being paid at this time. Ninety-one and a half cents was bid here today for No. 1 bluestem, but everything In sight Is held at 92 cents. Railroad officials have announced that there will be no delay in getting the wheat to tidewater this year, as plenty of cars are available. If butter manufacturers fee! tomorrow as they do today, there will be lio advance In butter this week. Several large houses are standing out against any advance at this time, as a rise will necessitate a complete readjustment of" retail prices. Manufacturers say there has been no shrinkage for the last two weeks. Eggs were firm at 33 cents. One lot was reported sold at 34 cents. Poultry Is scarce and firmer. The strength is due to the bull methods of a large packing-house here that has a price out In the country 1 cent higher on hens and 2 cents on broilers shan any one else has been pay ing. Dealers profees they are unable to un derstand why the advanced price is offered. Oregon and Eastern Washington grapes were cut today to $1 or even less on very ripe stock. Peaches and cantaloupes were also easier. With orders all filled for the present, po tatoes were steadier today. SALMON' RUN ALMOST CEASES. Pack on the Columbia River Will Fall I'nder Early Estimates. ASTORIA, Or., Aug. 21. Much to the sur prise of every one connected with the indus try, the run of fish has almost entirely stopped and, with the season closing next Tuesday, the pack cannot be much aug mented by the cannerymen. The cold storage plants practically closed operations two weeks ago. The total pack of the Columbia River can not be given at this time, but approximately the cannery pack will be short in the aggre gate fully 20 per cent, and the mild cured pack almost .50 per cent. Earlier estimates were much higher than this, but at that time It was expected that there would be a large run during the early part of August. QUOTATION'S AT SAN FRANCISCO.

SELLING BREAKS MARKET Prediction of Heavy Movement in, Northwest Xexit Week Causes General Unloading at Chicago. CHICAGO. Aug. 21. Wheat opened weak, due mainly to the apparent Indifference of foreign traders to the advance here yes terday as evidenced by declines at nearly all the principal European grain markets. The decline abroad was ascribed to more liberal offerings of wheat from Russia and points on the Danube and the favorable prospects for the Argentine crop. Trading In the local market was very quiet for a time, but the receipt of dispatches telling of low temperatures last night in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta brought out an active demand from several leading com mission houses. .These advices, together with an advance of more than 1 cent at Winnipeg, soon started a rally which car ried prices more than 1 cent above the opening quotation. About midday a prominent commission house began to sell freely, which started general selling by pit traders. The result was a break of 1H cents, which landed all deliveries a trifle below the opening figures. This selling pressure was Inspired to a large extent by numerous reports which predicted a heavy movement of new wheat In the Northwest next week. The market failed to recover from this set back, a heavy tone prevailing the remainder of the day. The close was weak at almost the lowest point. Cold weather In the corn belt and the strength of wheat induced considerable pur chasing of corn early, which caused mod erate strength. The close was easy, al though December and May were still a trifle above yesterday's final quotations. Oats were Independently firm all day. One of the chief factors in the situation was a local crop report, which was made public todav and which .placed the total yield for this year at 23,000,000 bushels less than the estimate made by the Government on August 1. With the exception of a brief period of steadiness early In the day. growing out of buying by a local packer, provisions were weak all day. The close was at about the lowest point.

NEW YORK, Aug. 21. Price movements In the stock market todajr were unimportant for the most part, with the trend toward a lower level. As on the previous days of the week, trading was of moderate propor tions and largely restricted tto the specula tive element. That faction aj.'pears to be affected by existing conditions, but its more venturesome members are arrayed on the bear side. The baldness of the shorte has been somewhat arrested by the collapse of the cotton pool, which 'Is said to have depleted the "paper" fortunes of several well-known operators in stocks. Political conditions are playing a more Important part In the finan cial situation Just now by reason of the re ported turn of events in this state and the effect this change may have on the Presi dential campaign. The most favorable news was the publica tion of a canvass by a leading financial institution of the Middle West, whose 4000 correspondents, with few exceptions, re ported the general .outlook as highly encour aging. Several Important railroad returns were Issued, that of the Reading Company lor THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL BANK PORTLAND, OREGON UNITED STATES DEPOSITORY CAPITAL AND SURPLUS, $1,000,000.00 OFFICERS J, C.

With few exceptions, the most notable be ing Southern Pacific, which made another record, touching 100. the local market opened lower, the bears renewing their at tacks along the lin'i. Especial points of weakness were Rock Island preferred and St ' Louis San Francisco second preferred, both of which declined 3 points; Reading, American Smelting. Great Northern pre ferred and Atchison. The break in Rock Island and San Francisco securities widened later and was attended hy a recurrence of gossip concerning the compli cated financial condition of these properties. The market moved up during the no in hour under heavy short covering, a factor In the advance being the tending of call money at per cent. Trallng In the late session be came desultory with some disposition in the direction of higher quotations, but increased weakness In Rock Island had a demoraliz ing effect, resulting In a heavy close with Southern Pacific's gain cancelled. American gains were irregular abroad, with late firmness In the Harrlmans on -the pre-hollday covering. Gold to the amount of tl. 100.000 was forwarded to Canada, but otherwise there Is no check to the Inflow of cash. International conditions are mak ing for greater ease In the local money situ ation.
