All Grain Firm.
In re.pnnse to tho upward course of tha
vtnt market, there will re an advance !n
most local grades of flour Saturday. The
advance In patent" Trill amount to 2" cents
a arrel. ivhlrh will bring the quotation
up to J.V Straights will be advanced in
renta per barret. The new prices will put
Portland practically on a parity with the
Furet Sound market", which w-ere railed
early In the week. Mill feed of all kinds la
steady in tone and will probably continue
so.
The wheat market was very arm yester
day with a. considerable amount of business
'reported on California and milling account.
Oats and barley maintained their former
strong position. Tho attendance at the
Merchants Exchange was the largest since
the sessions began and taxed the capacity
of the room.
The export wheat situation Is still un
satisfactory. London cables quoted car
goes firm and. unchanged but quiet. At
LlTerpool December wheat options Closed
Hd lower. Wheat continued very strong
at Chicago.

prLUXC PRESSTKErS HOP MARKET.
- Business Reported on American or For
eign Aceouut.
There was no material change In the hop
situation yesterday. There was the same
pressure on the part of growers to sell In
the face of a slack demand as was apparent
earlier In tlie week. No business for Ameri
can export account was reported. Mall ad
vices from California noted oales of Sacra
xnentoa at 4 and 5 cents.
The New lork hop market is reported
by the TA'atervllIe Times of November 27. as
follows:
The holiday has rather Interefered with
the market this week, which Is reported to
be a little slower. There Is no change In
the firmness with which the choice hops
are held hereabouts and the dealers say
their offers for these still stand. Wherever
a lot of the better hops can be found they
are picked Tip by our dealers at about 124
cents, but these are hard to find and It is
necessary to go Into other towi.s to nil or
ders of this kind. The poorer grades can
be picked up a little under previous rate,
as thus far there has been little- demand
for this quality.
London trade reports bearing dates of
November 1 to IS, follow:
Wild. Neame Co. The scarcity of
choice hops on our market has Induced a
better Inquiry for other descriptions, the
best of which are being taken at rather
more money than has yet been obtainable.
Cattley. Grldley A Co. The feature of the
hop market Is the extreme scarcity of
choice hops, and there still being a demand
for such, second-grade qualities ara quick
ly taking their place. There Is an Improved
Inquiry for medium and lower-class hops,
which continue to be offered at the lowest
figures experienced ror some years. Foreign
markets are rathar more active for best
hops, and prices remain unchanged.
Manger Henley A steady demand con
tinues for the best grades of medium Oold
Incs. tie scarcity of which buyers begin to
realise, and prices for these are very firm
with a hardening tendency. Bright colory
rtops are In strong request and difficult to
meet with There Is also more Inquiry for
sound, brown, copper hops, values of which
are very tempting.
W. H. & H. I.eMay Merchants are still
searching the market for choice hops and
are prepared to pay advanced prices when
found. Good sound second qualities are now
Inquired for. and even the poorest are find
ing buyers at the extreme low prices ruling
for such.
EG45 SCrrLY IS VERY SMALL
But n Few Co a Long War at Current
Priees.
Eggs continue to be the feature of the
country produce market. The supply of
Oregon ranch eggs Is small and Eastern
rggs are also cleaning up well. Tits result
14 a strong market that would advance
further, but for the fact that the high
j. rices have materially checked consumption.
Oregon ranch eggs were quoted yesterday
lit 42S045 cents. Eastern storage at 30 3
t-S cents and Eastern fresh at S3 cents.
Poultry was firm with a good Inquiry for
Mr-kens and ducks at the prices last
cj noted.
Firmness was reported In the butter and
cheese markets.
Large-Siaed Orange Are Scares.
There was little of Interest to report In
the fruit and vegetable markets yesterday.
Japanese oranges moved freely at the price
established Wednesday. California oranges
were also In good demand and large sizes
Tere very scarce. There was a moderate
movement In apples. Grapes are slowly
cleaning uo. Among the vegetable receipts
was a shipment of California hothouse cu
cumber quoted at $1.25 per box.
California Canned Good Advancing.
The upward tendency In California canned
foods Is the feature of the grocery trade at
this time. Gallon standard tomatoes have
advanced 30 cents per case since the open
ing and are now quoted at 12.40 at San
Francisco, while gallon peaches and apricots
have advanced .30 cents per case and are
very firm.

HETGHAHGESSHULL
In Spite of Constant Fluctua
tions in Stock Prices.
LITTLE PRESSURE TO SELL
Market Entirely In the Hands of
Professional Traders Money on
Call Advances to 3 Per
Cent Bonds Irregular.
NEW YORK. Dec. S. The constant fluc
tuations in today's sto-k market made It
purxling to discern the prevailing tone of
the speculation. The pressure to sell was
much less pronounced than late yesterday.
This fact formed the basis for some efforts
to get prices to a high level, which as often
were frustrated by the dying out of the de
mand as prices got higher. On the occasion
al declines there developed a sufficient de
mand to check the tendency and rally
prices The constant"xhanee In the course
of the price movement afforded a harvest
for the traders who were sufficiently agll
to turn with the tide. Their pronts, how
ever, were largely at the expense of other
traders less agile. The dealings - were al
most wholly In the hands of professionals.
News of the day hid not record any
marked changes In the influences governing
prices.
The money market showed a firmer tone,
which developed earlier In the week )n
connection with the settlements, the requi
sition In banking resources on account of
new securities Issued and the gold export.
Call loans advanced to 3 per cent. Govern
ment operations through the Fubtreasury.
have taken from the banks alnee the last
bank statement $.1,OS2.000, including a
withdrawal of Government deposits with
the banks early In the week. Payment for
the gold shipped to France today Is not in
cluded in the withdrawals to date. The slight
effect produced on the foreign exchange
market .by the gold shipment makes It evi
dent that further shipments -will be made.
New bond issues continue to be announced
and bankers report a large demand for
their offerings, indicating the good appetite
of capital for these investments.
There was selling here of stocks for for
eign account in spite of the easier tone of
the London discount market, based on the
failure to advance the official discount of
the Bank of England.
Incoming reports of railroad new earnings
for October Indicate that the September
rate of Improvement iwas not fully main
tained at that time, either In the gross or
the net, the decrease In gross being larger
and the Increase In net by curtailment of
operating expenses smaller than in the
earlier comparisons. The latest returns of
gross earnings for November also, although
comparing -with the period last year when
the depression began to make Itself felt,
show no growth In the rate of Increase
over earlier periods.
The earlier movement to market of both
grain and cotton is supposed to be respon
sible in part for the slowing down In the.
rates of traffic The lull" In the Iron trade
and In copper Is of similar import and the
low price of silver Is an additional con
sideration bearing on the metal and mining
stocks. United States gteel sold below 54
for the first time sjnee the week of the
National election. No reason was given for
the special strength shown by the Gould
group. Great Northern preferred and a few
others. In most cases, last prices were but
little changed from the day before.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $5,578,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

FAILS TO RESPOND
European Markets Not Affect
ed by Bulge at Chicago.
SHUTS OFF ENTHUSIASM
Big Wheat Holders Are Moderate
Sellers, but Covering by Shorts
Causes Slight Advance in
Prices Late in Day.
CHICAGO. Dec. 3. The wheat market to
day lacktd the bullish enthusiasm which
had been manifested the two previous ses
sions and the trade during the greater part
of the dav was Inclined to drag.
The high poirt for the May option was
registered a short time prior to the close
and again on final transactions was noted.
At the same time, the July delivery
equalled the high mark set yesterday, but
the December dellverv failed to reach, by
an eighth of a cent, yesterday's record of
$1.06. There was no evidence todny of any
support from the leading bulls, but, on tho
contrary, it was claimed that the big hold
ers were moderate sellers here and in the
Northwestern markets. The upturn late In
the day was due chiefly to covering by
shorts. The unresponsive tone of Euro
pean grain markets was one of the main
weakening Influences, prices In nearly all
of those markets being lower, with Liver
pool showing a decline of Hd. An official
prediction of rain or snow for a large part
of the Winter wheat belt In this country
was another bearish factor. The principal
bullish Influence was the decreased move
ment In the Northwest.
Corn was weak easly, but decided strength
developed later. Final quotations on De
cember were 63'4c and May WmffdSU.
Oats closed stronger at the highest point
of the day with prices up i(&14c. De
cember closed at-40Mio and May at 524
52 to o.
Provisions were dull and weak. Prices at
the close were 7 4 ii- 10c to 12 lower.

into two parts, namely, for building
the works and an annual charge cov
ering the cost of operation and main
tenance. The part for building the
works has been fixed at $25 per acre of '
irrigable land, and this may be paid
in annual installments of $5.20 per
acre or some multiple thereof, with
out interest. The part fixed for opera
tion and maintenance until further
notice is 95 cents per acre of irrigable
land per annum.
