HOLIDAY
SEASON
Quiet Period of Year in Most
Jobbing Lines.
GRAIN AND HOPS SLOW
Groc-n IVoduce Moves Off Freely.
Front-Street Poultry Trade '
Is Not Wlial It
Tsed to lie.
With the Christmas l'wn at hand the
nw-kaii have ail taken on a holiday ap
pearance. Eusln'n has etacked up In most
produce and merchandise lines and no Irn
pnrtant developments are expected until the
holiday are over.
Dullness nearly alwaya prevails In the
grain trade at tola time of year and the
present season 1 no exception. The do
mestic Inquiry Is light and there Is natur
ally no foreign Interest In the trade. Similar
conditions prevail In the hop market. In
the wholesale grocery trade, business Is
seasonably quiet. The traveling men are
all In and stock-taking requires more at
tention than anything else.
The feature of the produce market up to
the close of business yesterday was the
poultry trade. So far as Front street is
concerned, the Christmas turkey season
wss not an entire success. A few of the
Sealers did a ii'm business, but the ma
jority of them HM little compared with
former years. Conditions are rapidly chang
ing In the poultry trade and Front street
Is becoming less of a factor In this re-H-ect.
There was much activity In the fruit and
vegetable line and stocks were depleted by
the late but heavy city demand for all sea
sonable varieties.
WHEAT IS STEADY AND Ql IET.
foreign Markets Are Dull Oats Firm with
Sales at Full Prices.
There is very little doing In the wheat
market, prices holding steady. Yesterday's
rabies were of dull foreign markets, while
the Bast was firmer.
Barley was steady and oats quite strong
In the local market. At the Merchants'
KTrhanre. 10') tons of oats were sold at
j;!2,Vi trade and there was a sale of a car
of cats at the Board of Trade at $.12 trade.
Two cars of bran were sold at the Board
at (2.-I.S0 and one car at 'J. The fol
lowing Mil and asked prices were posted
at the Board:

TURKEYS FIRM IF TO NOON.
.atrr In the Day Prices Are Phaded ta
Clean t'p.
Yesterday saw the wlndup of the Christ
mas turkey market. Receipts were fairly
large and there was active buying In the
forenoon at firm prices, most of the busi
ness being at ti and iS cents. What was
left unsold after noon was harder to move,
and late In the day some very good birds
were offered as low as 23 cents. Some stock
was carried over, but will probably be
worked off today. The market for live
poultry was quiet, ducks only being In
demand.
There was no further change in the egg
ituatlon. Some dealers felt weak because
cf the lighter demand, but this was to be
expected, as the retailers supplied their holl
dsy wants early In the week and a better
Inquiry can be expected In a few days.
Butter prices wore unchanged. Supplies
are not cleaning up as well as some of the
creamerymen would like.
HOPS IN HANDS OF FARMERS.
Feyeneteea Thousand Bales Are I'nsold la
Oregon.
The hop deslers of Portland and Salem
have complied a list of the hops remaining
In growers' hands, which show a total of
J7.000 bales. On this basis an stimate of
the crop Is msde of from 85.000 to 90.000
bales.
The market was quiet yesterday, so far
as the local trade was concerned. Reports
from Independence were that F. W. Durbin.
of Salem, and T. A. Rlggs. of Dallas, were
In the market for hops of that section.
LARUE BIMNKSS IN ORANC.ES.
Fruits and Vegetables of All Kinds Move
WelL
A large volume of business was done In
fruits and vegetables and stocks in some
lines were sharply reduced. Oranges en
Joyed the best demand fir fruits and sold
at firm prices for all sixes. Two cars ar
rived during the day. Apples sold very
well, the Inquiry for the better grades
showing some Improvement.
Celery was very active at the recent ad
vance and small truck of all kinds, cleaned
tip well at firm prices. A car each of
celery and sweet potatoes were received.
.MOKE INTEREST NOW IN MOHAIR.
B4ter Outlook for Business In Finished
Mulrrial.
After a long wait the mohair market In
the East Is showing life and the specula
tors who bought up the Oregon clip last
Spring will now find a chance to market
their holdings. If they have not already
done so. The latest Issue of the Boston
Commercial Bulletin says of mohair in that
market:
Interest in domestic mohair slill con
tinues moderately, as consumers are stead
ily becoming Tnore favorably impressed
with the outlook for business in the finished
msterial. Domestic carding, of good qual
ity Is sorth up to 2i cents, and for comb
ing as high as 2S cents rules. Foreign hair
remains steady In price, but with only a
very moderate call.

Ptirtliasc or Colorado Southern by
Bnrlington Has Good. Effect on
Speculative Sentiment Iess
i
Demand for Time Loans.
NEW YORK. Dec. 23. The speculative
community remained convinced today that
important alignments are In progress or in
contemplation In railroad relations. The
first effect of the - announced purchase of
eontrolof the Colorado Southern by the
Chicago Burlington & Quincy had a mix
ture of misgiving as a possible prelude to a
renewed outbreak of the.antagonlsms In the
Northern Securities settlement. This has
come to be accented as an unmixed en
couragement to speculative activity.
The demand for first -class bonds contin
ues and the ready absorption of new bond
issues as fast as they are offered const 1
tules one of the strong underlying condi
tions of the present financial situation.
Today's subtreasury operations disclosed a
withdrawal of $3,833,000 from the bana.
This brings the loss to the banks on this
account for .the present banking week up to
$0.2.-3.000.
There is a falling off In demand for time
loans and an unwffclngness to pay the cur
rent asking rates.

CARLOAD FROM CALIFORX1:
DEPRESSES MARKET.
Fancy Spltzenberg Apples Advanced
to $2.56, the Highest Price
of the Season.
SEATTLE. Wanh.. Pec. 23. (Special.)
Fancy fipitzenbery apples were put up 25
rents on Western avenue today, dealers
tiaving little difficulty in securing $'2.o0 for
the best stock. Thla Is nhe highest price
f asked this season for apples, pineapples
offering in this market are very poor.
They are g-reen and hard to sell at prices
as low as 75 cents, which means & consld
erable loss to dealers.
Turkeys were no higher today. The tone
was Inclined to be bearish. Dealers did not
attempt to force prices up and, in fact,
were inclined to clean up. at even slight
reductions.
Eggs held firm at 45 and 46 cents. But
ter was dull and weak. Shipments of Cali
fornia butter to this market are having a
weakening effect. About . carload has

WRANGLE ON TRAFFIC COST
Evidence In Missouri Hale Case Is
Contradictory.
KANSAS CITY, Dec. 23. The direct ex
amination of the state's first witness in
the Missouri rate case continued this
morning:, ivhen A. P. Taliaferro, an expert
accountant, resumed the stand. A long
array of facts and ligures, equaled only
by the evidence adduced by the railroads,
was given today by the witness to prove
the state's contention that state passen
ger and freight traffic is handled at a
smaller cost than interstate traffic.
The Atchison, Topeka & Santa F"e Rail
way experts declare a test. on their road
showed the cost of carry state passen
gers on local trains was 3.75 cents a mile,
and for carrying through passengers on
through trains was 1.56 cents a. mile.. Mr.
Taliaferro's testimony Is expected to
prove these figures are incorrect.

QUIET BUT STRONG
Offerings in Chicago Wheat
Pit Are Light.
DEMAND IS FOR DECEMBER
Strength Due to Shorts Krening I'p
for ChrlMmns Holidays.
Corn and Oats- Close .
Very Firm.
CHICAGO, Dec. 23. Trade in the
wheat pit was quiet, but the market was
strong all day with the exception of a short
period at the start. The strength was
mainly due to the desire o? shorts to "even
up" for the Christmas holidays. Demand
was chiefly for the December delivery and
offerings during the greater part of the day
were rather meager. News was scanty and
principally of a bearish character. The
market closed firm at almost the top notch
with May. (1.06 H: July WRiic.
Cash corn was up 4 to lc at the sample
tables. The markets closed firm with prices
up H to c with May and July at Ulc.

of SSHt to c. May closing at 51S4c and
July at 4fi?i T4c.

market was strong the greater part . of
the day. The close was strong with gains
of 12V4 to 30c.
