' OFFER MADE BY PACKERS Matter or Handling California Lines Laid Before the Ixx-a Grocers' Association- Strong Demand for Flour -Grain Is Quiet. The retail grocers of this city are much Interested In a proposition made to them by the largest canning concern In California to handle Us products at factory prices. If the deal goes through, it will mean the elimination of the middlemen in this par ticular line of goods. The company that is making this effort to sell direct to the retailers is th- Cali fonla. Fruit Canners Association. Amenta of the association appeared before the Retail Grocers" Association at a reccn: meeting. They made the claim that the Jobbers have only taken such part of their product as tliey needed to use with their own private label. What the packers want Is not only to have a larger part of their goods iad here, but also to have them sold under the Cali fornia Fruit Canners' Association label. To accomplish this, they propose to sell to the retailers at the same price that' they sell to the jobbers. The packers are beginning preliminary work In their campaign by demonstrating their goods. Their output Includes every thing In canned fruits and vegetables, pre serves. Jellies and catsuis. f LIB WHEAT WLU AT TOP I'KICE. Two Hundred Tons Bring 1.0(i'i at the Merchants Exchange. Two hundred tons of Club wheat sold at the Merchants' Exchange yesterday at tl.Oi-. the best price reported this season. A sale of 1A0 tons of barley was made at 28.7.'.. The advance in Hour prices has not checked buying, as the steady rise In the market has caused a. belief on the part of many buyers that quotations will con tinue to ascend. Whether they do or not will depend on the course of the wheat mar Vet, and so far as the latter Is concerned, there Is nothing In sight to Indicate any rc cession in values.

The Government returns for 1!)08 show an American production of less than !.000,onn tons of potatoes on an acreage of 3.0OO.0UO. The same authority states that the produc tion In Germany in 1S was 45.000,000 tons. mis connection W. N. White, of New York, the leading authority on market con ditions and production, writes: i ne c.erman grower of potatoes can al ways sell .! . , . i . . . . . - - -wh.ub BLuuK to me manu facturer of si.lrit. fornia. starch and orti- .. aL -,,: per cwi.. no matter what the samnle or hnu. i . i. ... ..... . la.fic tuts ijuKniny, anu at present prices prevailing in this countrv after paying TOc a sack duty he does n..'t want to send any potatoes here.

On Tuesday the Baltic from I.lver pool had 400 hags, and the New York and ,' Southampton had 4132 bags. The "Mcrlda i from Havana had ins crates and the Trini dad from Bermuda had 305 barrels. LOWER PRICES NAMED ON ASPARAGUS. Carry-over Supply In California Weakens the Market. Lower prices hav-a ben named on both spot and future California canned aspar agus than were quoted at the opening last year, and this in splto of, the fact that the grounds of Hlckmott and the California iCentral Canning tympany, who raise the t larger portion of asparagus In California. are covered with water. It Is stated that sufficient asparagus of last year's pack is still In stock at San Francisco to supply all the. needs of the canning year. For this reason much lower prices on asparagus are expected In the coming season. RECEIPTS OF EGGS ARE LIGHT. Market Firm and Prices Higher Poultry to Demand. The continued light receipts of eggs Indi cate that Valley shippers are finding some other outlet than Portland, probably Se attle. With the moderate arrivals and ac tive demand, the local market was firm ,yesterday at 24 25 cents There was a fair supply of poultry yes terday and a good demand at the prices that have ruled for some time past. Deal ers also report Inquiry for dressed poultry of various kinds and quote chickens at 17 ;z cents, turkeys at 22iQi25 cents anc'. geese at 12914 cents, but ut these figures the dressed stock must be fat. Butter prices were firmly maintained on city and outside brands. FIRMER TONE IN POTATO MARKET. I neonHrmed Rumors of Higher Prices Paid in Country. There Is a firmer feeling n the potato market, because of renewed Inquiry from various parts of California. While the local hipping trade still quoted $1.25 art country points, there were unconfirmed rumors that petter prices were being paid in the Inter ior; There has been no advance yet at San ..Francisco to Justify higher prices here, and If an advance has been paid, it was specu I la-tlve. ip i ne onion market was rather, quiet Five cars were sold for shipment south, but nothing tcould be placed on the Sound. SEAVEY BUYS 1907 HOPS. Three Cents Paid For Large Lot of Olds at Tualatin. The J. W. Seavey Hop Company yesterday nought the J. L. Smith lot of 186 bales of 11107 hops at Tualatin at 3 cents.

TRADING IS PROFESSIONAL "Net Kurn in jr Statements of Harrl man Roads "ot Kntircly Satis factory Copper Sliarcs Arc Strong. NEW YORK, March 2. A contest for ad vantage between the professional factions In the speculation made up the stock market almost altogether today. Another advance In the price of refined copper, both In Lon don and at the New York Metal Exchange, was regarded as confirmatory of reports of an improved demand. Tile conviction is strong that when the decline in the metals has reached its limits, there will be a large waiting demand de veloped, which will lead to an early trade revival. Reports from the steel trade indi cated that the cut In prices had brought out some orders, but the amount mas declared to be small. The effect on sentiment was offset by the announcement of the posting of wage reductions In the Lackawanna Steel Works at Buffalo, the news having a somewhat ominous Influence. The wage question received additional consideration by reason of the statement published In behalf of the anthracite op erators. The refutation offered of the claims formulated by t the miners was evidently an announcement to comply with them. The soeclal weakness of Erie was due to the apoiicatlon to the Public Service Com niisaion for modification of the terms per mitted for the proposed bond Issue. The Union Pacific aud Southern Pacific net earning statements for January were utilized to push a rally, but the movement was totally without enthusiasm. The small gain In gross earnings of Union Paclfl.- and the actual decrease for Southern Pacific offer questionable ground of satisfaction, in view of the severe depression of earnings last year with which the comparison Is made. The reduction In operating cost also, was more moderate than for some re i.ent months. Except in a few southern railroads, the roads thus far reporting show an Increase In the expense item, compared with January of last year, with correspond ing modification of the Increase In net earn ings. This increase In expenses In several caues was so considerable as to outweigh the gross increase and make the net return les.i than even tre meaner return or Janu ary last year.
