    FINE TURKEY TRADE
Supply Proves Just About
Large Enough.
BUT NONE TO SPARE
Market Is Firm Throughout Willi
I he Bulk or Sales at 22 1-2 to
24 Cents Packers Cut
Into FYont-Strect Trade.
The is Thanksgiving turkey market has
turned out to be successful. Cntll yeeterday
it wu not known definitely what the develop
ments wtwild be. It was the general opinion
that the supply would be under rather than
over requirements, and thla guess came very
near the troth. Receipts on Sunday and
Monday were very havy. but that they were
Tot exceeslve was evidenced by the firm posi
tion f the market throughout. The demand
was urgent.
For No. 1 dreeesed turkeys the market
ranged from 224 to 24 cents on the majority
of sales. No quotations below the lower
figure were announced, but some business was
done a cent above the ranee quoted and It
was noted that later In the day there was
leas difficulty In realizing; the top prices as
the market hardened. Culls generally moved
between 1! and 22 cents.
There was no complaint of the general
quality of the turkeys. According to the
dealers they (Traded better than In recent
years. The proportion of seconds and half
Tattened birds was certainly smaller than
usual.
It was estimated that the total receipts in
the two days were between 50 and 55 tons.
The bulk of the supply was In by noon yes
terday, but scattering shipments will continue
today. The shipping demand was strong and
absorbed a good proportion of "khe receipts.
The most noticeable feature of the market
was the frail taken by a large packing firm
of this city. That it has succeeded In making
Inroads on the Front street trade was clearly
Shawn by the small receipts of some of the
principal commlession houses, which received
only enough turkeys to nil a small part of
the orders bonked. The packers In question
have been quietly buying up turkeys In the
country for many weeks past and killing and
dre-mg them at their establishment here.
Lurlne the bu,y part of the season they
kept U drv plrkera at work. Officials of the
firm claim they have handled the larger part
of the lo,al supply this year.
Very little Eaetern mock was brought In
r i..c.l consumption. So far as known,
ihe-e was only one small shipment, which
came along with a part car of butter. They
were of fancy quality.
It Is probable that just about enough tur
keys will have been received by noon today
, fill .11 requirements, but It la ' to say
,h,re will not be a single turkey carried.

Speculative Furore Subsides in
Wall Street.
CAUTION IS ADVOCATED
CarneRle's Views on Ui Tariff Have
the Effect or Checking the Up
ward Price Movement With
Recovery, Demand Falls Off.
NEW YORK. Nov. 23. Todays business
at th. Stock Exchanne was the smallest
for any day since the electlrn. The total
of 7aj.400 shares is the only dally total
below 1.0i0.o)0 shares that has occurred
for a full dav In that period. This sub
sidence of th. speculative furore awakens
some regret In many elements closely ad
jacent to the Stock Exchange, but in the
larger flnanclal circle of the Wail-street
section there Is an avowed satisfaction with
the slowing down of a speculative pace
which It was feared would trove perilous
and Involve ulterior consequences that
would be detrimental to the march of In
dustrial and commercial progress of the
country. This fear haa found open ex
pression In the past few days from many
Influential banking quarters.
The closed interval since Saturday
seemed to have been taken advantage o
to disseminate this view through the coun
try. The wisdom of regulating the pulse
of th. recovery and of keeping down fever
ish symptoms waa enforced from various
sources. There Is a tone of depreciation
of uny attempt at a sudden and violent
boom In buiness. There T.ere warnings
given also of unwarranted assumptions of
the progress already achieved in the re
covery and of the wiping out of possible
obstacles to be encountered. In particular
there la realization that the assembling
of Congress and the state Legislatures may
bring some forces into action that will
ch.ll speculative enthusiasm. It I sup
posed that this may follow from the too
exuberant views' that speculators have pro
fessed of th. extent to which the antl
corporatlon sentiment In the country has
been appeased. The taking up of the tariff
schedules In the practical work of a revi
sion of rates of dutvmust be taken into
account for some disturbing efTect which
the speculators have been Inclined to ignore
for a time.
The stock market had clear intimations
last week of the nature of the magazine
article written by Andrew Carnegie, lean
ing to a tariff for revenue only, and ad
vocating the abolition of duties on steel,
but the publication of elaborate extracts
from the article were not without addi
tional effect. These Influences were per
ceptible In the constraint on the advance
of prices of stocks t'"day. rather than In
any positive depression. The stock market
In fact showed some tendency toward an
upward reaction from the sharp fall, which
was In force at the close of last week.
There was quite a volume of selling or
ders in the market at the opening, as the
after-effect of last week's, fall, and those
made the opening prices lower. At the
lowest level the professional traders on the
floor were disposed to work for a recovery
on the ground that the fall had reached such
an extent as to Invite a rebound. The
wiping out of weak accounts on the long
side and the building up of a short inter
est in the "course of the decline had Im
proved the technical condition of the mar
ket. On the recovery there was a marked
dwindling of the demand, which served as
notice of the reluctance as yet to the pur
chases of stocks on a large scale.
Aa Important part of the selling was for
foreign account and this was of such effect
on the foreign exchange market as to keep
alive the discussion of possible gold ex
ports. Another reduction in quotations for
coj-per at the New York Metal Exchange
was a factor in the restraint on specula
tion perceptible In the day's market.

VP AT SEATTLE.
Flour Millers in the North Looking
Forward to Business With
. the Philippines.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Nov. 23. (Special.)
Turkeys were no scare. In this market to
day and the prospects of Retting an ade
quate supply to meet the holiday require
ments so poor that dealers shot the buy
lnjc prices up 2c and it may go even higher
if the blras are not forthcoming in the
morning. The buying price Is now 22c.
Hens are rather plentiful and no change
in price is anticipated. Eggs are strong
at &0c.
Seattle flour millers expect that the ex
piration of the tariff on flour to the Philip
pine Islands in April, If not renewed, will
result in an extra business of at least
1 .000.000 baps per year for the Pacific
Coast. Seattle millers are sanguine
that Congress will not renew the tariff
which was Imposed ten years ago. It Is
Mid that with the tariff off. Australian
flour will be kept out of the islands almost
completely.
Apples were no stronger today, in fact,
concessions wre made here and there to
move stock that has been held for some
time.
Potatoes were still weak, few Belling

CHICAGO. Nov. 23. The storm which de
veloped Sunday was centered on the eastern
elope of the Rocky Mountains and caused
quite general precipitation from that sec
tion eastward over the Mississippi Rive.'
ValleV and the official prediction Indicated
that showers will continue over the entire
district from the Missouri River Valley
eastward. Pit traders were bearishiy im
pressed by the more favorable weather con
ditions for the Fall-sown crop and sold
wheat quite freely throughout the greater
part of the day. while there was also some
selling by commission houses. Further am
munition was furnished the bears in the
shape of a heavy movement of wheat in the
Northwest and by a decline at Liverpool.
Several slight recoveries were made during
the day on buying by shorts, but each bulge
brought out increased offerings which soon
carried prices down again. The market
closed weak, with December to (& lc
lower at $1.03H 0 1.03. and May at $1.074.
Wet weather had an opposite effect on
the corn market from what it had on wheat,
owing to possible delay to the movement of
the new crop due to the rains. The close
was firm with prices up H 0 V to &c with
December at &4c, and May at 63 O.'Jc.

Widow ot Man Who Died Four
Hours After Wedding Wealthy.
SEATLE, Nov. 25. One-half interest
in property estimated at S50.00J was
awarded Mrs.- Hannah Hartung Adler,
widow of Alfred Adler, the wealthy
glove manufacturer who died In-New
York City, September 16. 190", four
hours after he had wedded his fiancee
of two years. Under a New York will
the widow receives $35,000 from the
Manhattan estate, valued at J250.00O.
Her acceptance of this bequest, made
at the time of the engagement bars
her under the law of New York from
further participation in the benefits
of the estate. In Seattle, Adler's prop
erty lies In the two most desirable
residence districts.
In rendering his decision this morn
ing, according to the statute of Wash
ington, Judge George E. Morris In the
Superior Court held that the death
bed marriage revoked the will, as far
as Washington was concerned and that
the widow was entitled to her commu
nity interest, one-half of all property
within the jurisdiction of this state.
