    THE MORNING OREGONIAX, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY C, 1909.
BUYING IS RESUMED'
Potato Shipping Business
Again Under Way.
MANY CARS MOVING SOUTH
Bayers Afraid of a Inaction In the
San Francisco Market Shipping
Wheat by HH to Mexico.
Active Produce Trade.
With the reorenIr.it of rail trafrie to Cali
fornia, potato buying In this elate was re
sumed ye.terday afternoon. The movement
may not become active, however, as there 1.
some fear that the shlppplng business may be
overdone temporarily. Buyers have paid
from $1,232 to 1.35 for choice atock. but
are not inclined to go over this figure until
there Is a further elevation of values In San
Francisco. Private wires jeeterday quoted
that market easier under the presesure. of
offerings of Oregon stock.
The Interruption of traffic by the wash
outs may give an opportunity to work off
some of the supply at San Francisco, but as
there were 30 cars this elde of the elide -terday.
these are likely to reach the South
ern market about the same time and may
prevent any recovery in prices for a while.
The onion .hipping business, with Califor
nia has also been affected by the railroad
trouble, but the arm position of the growers
has kept price, up.
BAIL SHIPMENTS TO MEXICO.
Wheat Will Go From This City by Way of
El rao.
' A shipment of 10.CM burtifls of wheat will
bs made by rail from th:s city to Mexico
rla El Paso. This is In the nature of a
trial shipment and If It work, out satisfac
torily more will go the same way. Grain
men of El Paso, who have heretofore had
control of the Mexican business, are putting
up a fight to retain the trade and may pre
vent further water shipments from being
mads from this port.
The local market was moderately active
yesterday at very Arm prices. Bluesteni was
quoted up to $1.11 and sales of fancy lots are
reported at higher figure.. Oats were strong,
but lower prices were offered for barlejl

SLACK IXtlVIRY FOR HOPS.
In Spits of Slow Bnlnes' Growers Are Firm
Holders.
There Is very little Inquiry for hops low.
This Is not unusual at this time of year, but
thero Is a prospect of a better movement
later In the month. Notwithstanding the
dull condition of ths market, holders maintain
a Arm position.
Of operations la New York State the Water
Tllle Times of January 29 says:
This has beea the busiest week of the sea
son In the local hop market, over 3fC bales
having changed hands during the ln few
oays. The hops sold are not choice, but evi
dently answer the purposes for which they
are bought, at any rate they are meeting
with a ready sale where early In the season
they attracted ni attention whatever. The
prices paid for these bops are 10. 104 and 11
cent.
It cannot be denied that there is a good,
healthy demand for hops and it is necessary
to cover considerable territory before the re
quired amount of hops can be picked up, and
this difficulty Is dally decreasing.
rOTT-TRY BELLS AT BETTER TRICES.
Sound Inquires for Eggs, but Does Not
Offer Enough.
With the hens getting ready to lav again,
receipts of poultry from the country are
diminishing, and under a good demand
prices are becoming stiffer. Hens sold
at 13Vj14 cents yesterday, and half a
cent more was paid for fancy coops. Droll
er, brought as high a. 20 cents and 21
cents was quoted on the best ducks.
There was a good movement In egg.
and ths market was about steady. Ths
general quotation was 40 cents, with a few
houses holding at 421, cents. There was
soma Inquiry from the Sound, tut lower
prices sen offered, and no business re
sulted. Thers were no changes In butter or
cheese. "Both lines were active.
Fresh Produce Is Scarce,
X few ears of California produce that
were on this aide of the railroad ob
struction came In yesterday. They con
tained celery, cabbage and oranges. Aside
from these articles and some caul'flower,
the market Is very poorly supplied with
southern produce. Apples are the most
plentiful article In the fruit line, and move
fairly well. Ths street Is almost bare
of sweet potatoes.

DECLINES IN BOND LIST
Among Unfavorable Factors of Day
Are Rumors of Harriman's 111
llcalth Anti-Japanese Agita
tion Not Liked on Exchange.
NEW YORK, Feb. B. Short periods of
animation In the dealings In stocks today
brought the total sale, to something above
the recent average. The stirring of activity
was caused by one or two occurences to
which an unfavorable Interpretation was
given from the standpoint of holders of se
curities. The character of the market,
however, was not radically changed from
the neglected stats that has prevailed all
week.
Apparently the professional element had
stretched their resources to ths limit on
the buying side of the market and, finding
no following to help them, turned to the
selling side for a turn. To expedite the
downward movement they professed ap
prehension over ths news of the projected
vacation by E. H. Harrlman, accompanied
by the intimations of an attack of rheuma
tism. So much has been made as a specu
lative force of Mr. Harriman's supposed
plans and projected activities that any
serious deterioration In his health would
be a serious consequence to the existing
fabric of market values. The slight effect
produced by today's rumors seems to be re
assuring, therefore, as to the physical con
dition of the Union Pacific system.
The weakness of Union Pacific was trans
ferred to Denver & Rio Grande causing a
reaction In that stock, the recent strength
of which has been due to supposition of a
part' by Mr. Harrlman In a far-reaching
project for recasting the Gould system.
Another point of special weaknes. was
Reading, in which there had been persistent
selling for several days. The stock owe.
Its high prices to the confident assumption
that the commodities clause of the Hepburn
law will be declared Invalid In the test
cass brought In the Supreme Court. Recent
decisions of tbe Supreme Court have been
so far away from speculators' predictions
that a feeling of uneasiness has grown up
against speculative holdings In Reading.
Stress la laid al.o on the necessity of a
new agreement this Spring between the
anthracite carriers and the miners in their
employ over rates of wages, which offer,
the possibility of a strike.
The keeping alive of the antl-Japanesa
agitation in California and the sensational
altention given to It are not liked In spec
ulative circles, where the possibility of a
sudden untoward circumstance Is kept In
mind.
An Influence was the Initiation of divi
dends on Brooklyn Rapid Transit with the
declaration of a 1 per cent dividend for
the quarter. Brooklyn Transit dividend
prospects have been a perennial subject for
speculation for over ten years, during which
the stock rose at one time as high as 13
without any actual dividend being forth
coming. With the taking! of this subject
out of the realms of conjecture there is a
considerable element in the speculation that
will find Itself almost without occupation.
The narrow-movement on the announcement
Indicated the quieting effect of certainty In
contrast to doubt.
The known movements of money for the
week show pretty even offsets between the
receipts by express from the Interior and
the subtreasury operations and the with
drawal of gold for export. The final with
drawals of trust companies on Monday to
meet the February 1 reserve requirements
may remain to be reflected in the bank
statement. Tho money -market maintained
Its firmer tone.
Reports were current of furthsv large
bond Issues in prospect. The amount of
absorption In the bond market in the last
few weeks is by no means adequately
measured by the amount of new Issues sub
scribed to during that time, or by the
volume of sales at the stock exchange, as
large amounts left over In the hands of
underwriters of older Issues hava been di
gested during ths same period.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par
value, $7,844,000. United States 2s regis
tered declined i4. the coupons H and the

CHICAGO MARKET IS WEAK
General Selling Inspired by the
Bearish Statistics! American Ex
ports Not as Large as Expected.
Corn and Oats Are Steady.
CHICAGO. Feb. S. Traders in the wheat
pit were confronted at the opening of the
session by a wealth of bearish influences,
principal among which were tlw statistics
relating to the heavy shipments of wheat
the last week from Argentina and Aus
tralia. Cables were also easy and the move
ment in the Northwest was fairly liberal.
These Influences had a bearish efTect during
the .early part of the day, but were offset
to some extent by the continued excellent
demand for cash wheat here. Trade was
nervous within a narrow range the first half
of the day. but the market developed con
siderable weakness lata In the session,
owing to selling inspired by the poor show
ing of the Bradstreet's statement of ex
ports from this country for the week. Tho
total movement from the United States and
Canada was reported at 1.813.000 bushels
compared with 4,750,000 bushels this time
a year ago. Trie close was easy, with May
$1.09; July, 88 o.
Mild, wet weather In the corn belt was
the chief factor In tho corn market and
Induced sufficient buying by shorts to hold
prices firm throughout tho entire day. The
market closed steady, with prices a shade
to lc higher than tho previous close, final
quotations on May being 6363o and
July 63 c.
Oats were quiet and steady, prices
fluctuating within a narrow range. At the
close prices were unchanged to a shade
lower compared with yesterday's final quo
tations. May closed at 62o and July at
46c.
Although trade In provisions was dull,
the market displayed moderate firmness
owing to -smaller receipts of live hogs than
had been expected. Prices, however, made
only slight gains, the net advances at tho
close being 2c to 7c.

LOW GRADE OVER DIVIDE
Canadian Northern Will Cross but
One Mountain Kange.
CHICAGO, Feb. 5. Official details of
the plans of the Canadian Northern
road to extend its line from Edmonton
to the Pacific Coast at Vancouver, are
given out. The direction which will be
taken by the new line is southwest and
the distance as the crow files Is about
460 miles. The company will, however,
have to build nearly V50 miles of road.
The survey takes the road through
British Columbia by way of Yellow
Head Pass, down' North Thompson
River to a Junction with the Fraser
River, thence to New Westminster and
on to Vancouver. The Canadian North
ern will be the only transcontinental
line which will have to cross but one
mountain range. The highest elevation
reached will be about 3700 feet. All
other transcontinental lines have three
ranges to cross, and the elevations
reached run as high as 8000 feet.
Owing to the easy pass which the
Canadian Northern has to negotiate,
the operating problem will be a com
paratively easy one. The company will
also have the benefit of cheap coal, ex
tensive fields having been purchased in
British Columbia.
