TTIE MORNING OKEGONIAN, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1908. 1 Ore K 1 ny i t.sn fM point WOOL IS DEI! Buyers Taking Up Remnants of Clip. EASTERN MARKET FIRMER Pennsylvania Concord Grapes Ap pear on Front Street Strong Demand" for Milling Wheat. Stronger Poultry Market. The recent advances In wool price In to East have stimulated the local market and there l considerable activity In the buying up of stray lot In various parti of the state. It la probable that everything available will be taken up In the near future. Shipment! are fairly large. An Important transfer In Oregon Valley wool la reported from Boston, several nun ihAnunri vwtiind chanclna bands at lie for No. 2. No. 1 staple la well sold up there, only small lota moving at lo. Business In territory wools baa been heavy In the East The demand Is quite general for wools that can be combed, which are firm in price, with the tendency more and more In favor of sellers as sup piles of desirable eelections become re duced. Of wool In the original bags the largest transactions are W0.000 pounds Montana on the scoured basis of 52c; 350. 0O0 pounds Idaho at 16c to 164c. costing f,2e clean: and 100.000 pounds Montana at 21c. Sales of staple wool Include 300.000 pounds half-blood Wyoming at lOHc; 186. .000 pounds half-blood Dakota at II Vic. costing 51c clean: 1O0.O0O pounds line Mon tana at 20c to Sic; and 75.000 pounds tine Wyoming at 18c. Pine Idaho sold to a good extent at 16c In the grease and 60o to 62c, clean. General conditions In the East are re ported by the Boston Commercial Bulletin as follows: On the whole, the situation. Is strong. There Is no speculation. . Manu facturers are buying because the selection offered Is good and prices low. They be lieve that their bins can be safely tilled at current rates, which are on low level, comparatively speaking, and which are more llkoly to advance than to decline. The demand runs along the same lines a formerly, staple wools and wools that can be combed meeting with the most active sale. The statistical situation is Improv ing all the time, and It Is one of the favorable features of the situation that clothing territory wools have moved so well. They have gone steadily to the French spinners, and supplies are very much smaller than they were at the be ginning of the season. Some authorities quote the market 2 to 4 per cent hiKher In the grease than ten daya ago. But .the majority of dealers are still free sellers at recent prices, and find that attempts to get buyers to pay more money , end In failure. Buyera are sensitive, and. while ready to "operate on todays prices, stoutly resist any advance that may be asked, 'knowing that there is no decided upward movement and that If requirements cannot be filled in one place they can In another. There are still as many. If not more, sell ers than buyera LOCAL WHEAT MARKET IS FIRM. Good Demand From Millers Keen Price rp. Although the foreign, situation waa weak, wheat was very strong locally. There was a first-class demand from millers and of ferings were very light. The local flour trade was good, but ehere waa not much doing In an export way. There were no changes In grain values, as shown by the bids recorded at tha Board of Trade yeaterday, and no sales. Tha range of futures waa a follows f. o. b. warehouse. Portland): WHEAT. Open.

Dennis A pons, fruit brokers, of Lon don, in their latest market circular, say: This week has aeen the first arrival of California N'ewtowns. and the fruit showed tip cleaner and of better color than we have seen It for several years past. For four-tier 10011a per box has been obtained; for four-and-a-half-tlers 7s CdVSs per box. We anticipate arrivals of this particular article to lncnease and prices to gradually recede, aa we are sure that the present prices of 10011s per box, coupled with the heavy crop, cannot be maintained. Pears are In active demand at good prloea. We are experiencing some very hot weather, which naturally Increases the con sumption of thla article, and prlcee have jumped some ItfJs per box from last week. Current price are as follows: California Cornice, half boxes. CCa. 13 15s: California Cornice, half boxes. 70s to 80s. 10 12s: do Beurre Hardy, boxes, 9& 10s; do. Duchess, half boxes, rse; Clalr geau, half boxes, 43s. We would like to say that the California Clalrgeau la not In any way such fine fruit aa your Oregon Clalrgeau. and the latter, tf here now, would certainly do considerably better than the prtcea we hava Just men tioned. RIMOR OF EXPORT HOP ORDERS. But No Business for Such Account Una Bern Reported. The rumor continues in circulation In the hop market that the Falem export houses are In receipt of orders, but there Is no proof of It yet In their operations. ' The market Is very firm for choice hops and holders- of such are not pressing them for sale. Reports come In of 8-oent bids, snd 74 cents Is said to have been freely offered In several sections for good brewing hops suitable for the Ameri can trade. The J. W. Seavey Hop Company bought 100 bales at Marquam. 61 bales at Sllverton and 115 bales at West Side points. Harry Bolam. agent of the Ho rat Company, of London, purchased 1000 bales of Taklmes a few days ago at 64 to 8 cents. Klaber., Wolf A Netter received the follow ing cable yesterday: "London market firm for choice; other qual ities dull. Seas market unchanged." DEMAND FOR EGOS VERY STRONG. Orrgcoa Peeling at XT' I cuts ana UHten at jzy lent. Tht demand for egs is stronger tnan at any- M'.me mm arswn. " " ' t.esn Oregon raifUl. sioca l iowei point. The tola) rf are now running only about cases a dayNsThis quantity Is entirely inadequate and the ' market Is, therefore, decidedly firm, 7c being readily obtained. The deficiency In the supply Is being made up with Eastern eggs, which have also advanced in price, freah Eastern selling at IOfJf"jC. Eastern storage eggs are offered at 27 & 30c The decrease in receipts of chickens has given the market a better tone and prices are slightly higher all around. Cheese and butter are firm and an' changed. CALIFORNIA GRAPES ARE "WEAKER Eastern Concords Meet With Goad Sal Vegetable in Demand A straight car of Pennsylvania Concord grapes, the first to come from the East thla season, was put on sale yesterday morning at 37',e40c per full basket. They were of fine flavor and solid pack and sold welL California grapes were plentiful, a fresh car of Tokays adding to the supply. The mar ket all around waa weak, the best offerings bringing only 1.10. Other fresh fruits were slow. A car of lemons, waa received and another car Is due Monday.

SHORTS ON BUYING SIDE Market Dull and Xominal In the Early Part of the Day Flurry in Call Money Rates. Bonds Are Steady. NEW YORK. Oct. 16. There was only a nominal stock market today until a sudden revival in the last half hour. Whatever Impulse may account for the withdrawal from active operations of the strong finan cial element which has conducted the recent spec (nation. It was evident today that with thoee operatlona subtracted, nothing was left of the market. The necessity of In curring large additional obligations last week in order to absorb the flood of for eign sales Interfered with the plans of the organised support of the present speculative position. The support at that time proved entirely successful, but involved a heavy new Indebtedness to the banks. The Im mobility of prices caused by these condi tions became very marked today and there were few. even of the most active stocks, which fluctuated over an extreme range of a point until the sudden rise at the last. London waa a source of some strength to the local market, both at the opening and In the closing spurt. A good efrect was produced by reports that copper consumers were less aloof In filing their requirements, while producers are holding together more firmly for their prices. The view of tho authorities in the iron and steel trade was decidedly conservative and estimates of the United States Steel Corporation of activity In September and of the earnings of tho late quarter scarcely availed to counteract the effect of these views, Money lenders reported an increase In th demand for call loans, while some of the largest banks have practically withdrawn from that department. The result was the little flurry in call money rates today to 2 per cent, the highest since the conclusion of the October settlements. The buying of stocks, which began with the rise In call money, gave a suggestion of responsibility by the bears for recent sell ing of stocks. The upward impetus lasted until the closing. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value. (3.8(4.000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. , o,300 7tt 200 4"Vi . - . . Low.

VERY WEAK AT CHICAGO Large Increase " In Shipments of "Wheat From Argentina Predict ed Xo Export Demand. Flour Is Slower, CHICAGO. Oct. 15. The wheat market was wak all day, with the exception of a slight rally during the Drat few minut-as of trade, due to active support by several lead ing balls. At the start prices were un changed to Jc lower, but la the first IS minutes a rally to a little above th-e previ ous close occurred. Toward the end of the first hour the market turned weak and con tinued heavy the remainder of the day, closing at tho bottom. With the exception of the continued dry weather in the South west, there was little to stimulate bullish enthusiasm, while, on the contrary, bear-' lsh factors were qui te numerous. Chief among these latter influences was a severe lump in wheat prices at the principal Euro pean grain centers, Liverpool showing a de cline of nearly 1 penny. The slump at Liverpool, it waa said, was caused by the fear of an Increase in the shipment of wheat from Argentina this week and to reports from that country telling of favorable weather for the new. crop. One authority estimated the week's movement from Argen tina at 1,800,000 bushels, compared with. 624,000 bushels last week. While dry weather still prevailed In the Winter wheat section in this country, rain was reported quite generally west of the Rocky Moun tains, and the official forecast predicted that the storms'would move eastward. Receipts in the Northwest were much smaller, but the decreased movement was offset by a slackening In the demand for flour. An al most total absence of export demand also tended to depress prices. Owing to free selling of corn by smalt holders, the market was weak all day and closed at the lowest point. Prices at the close were c to lc lower, with Decem ber closing at 63 Uc and May at 63c. Oats were steady. At the samples tables prices were steady to c lower, line mar ket closed steady with prices unchanged to c and .c lower. Provisions were strong -early in the day, owing to buying attributed to local pack ers, but subsequently nearly all the gain was lost as a result of the falling off In demand. Prices at the close were 2c lower to 10c higher. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Dec 11.00 $1.01 $ -9 $ -99 May 1.0334 1.04 14 1.02 1.027, July 98 5i. .99 .98 , .98 CORN.
