THE MOIWIXG OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JTJLY Z7,
LUST PRICES HOLD
Local Wheat Buyers Have Not
Reduced Their Bids.
BUT MARKET IS WEAK
It Offerings Were Better, Prices
Would Probably Be Forced to a,
lower Basis Bullish New
in the Hop Trade.
The whut market was decidedly weak
yesterday, aa was to be expected lfl view of
the- slump at Chicago and the lowar mar
ket at Liverpool. Local buyers, however,
mada no alteration In their quotation and
vera stJli offering- the prices eurrent the
latter part of last week. A little business
was accomplished at these rates, but not
much- It was evident that had offering's
been at all free these prices could not
have been maintained. There Is no gen
' eral selling movement and will be none
. VCTtl the aarvest la completed, yet In some
-Quarters these as mora disposition to sell
B0W than thee eras last week. This Is the
! consequence of (be tin for the worse
r taken by moat of the big grain markets.

Stock Operators 'Await Steel
Trust Meeting.
LOOK FOR A COMPROMISE
Improvement In the Industrial Sltu
gtlop as Yet Haa No Effect
on the Price of the
Stock.
NEW YORK,' July 28. The stock market
was stagnant today. There was a period of
slight activity after the. opening and some
stirring towards the close. The speculative
contingent seemed determined to await th
outcome of the United States Steel dividend
meeting, which Is not expected to begin until
after the market has closed tomorrow. The
Indications of further delay In the adjust
ment of the tariff controversy at Washing
ton seemed to have some effeot In dlscourag
lnr any aotlvltv In the market
More Interest from a speculative stand-
point oenters at present In the oorn orop
than In any other, and the helpful weather
was a beneficial factor for value.
Trade news of Steel was good and In
cluded an announcement that the content
plated advance In prices of wire would be
enforced In August Instead of at the be
ginning of the year, as at first contemplated.
The raising of prices of bars and fhapes
by the United States Steel Corporation Is
expected to occur at the same time. United
States Steel failed to benefit from this trad
newe or from a suggestion, which found cur
rency In a limited speculative circle, that to
morrow's dividend might be made at
per cent, as a compromise between the
present rate and the 4 per cent which some
speculative buyers had hoped for. The
price wss run down to 08, but met support
at about 70.
Amalgamated copper was unfavorably af
fected by the renewed decline In copper
metal In the London market and the fear
thus aroused that the reoent recovery In the
prloe had been manipulative In Its origin.
There Is some growth in the supply of
mercantile paper as the season advances
It Is expected that large lines of Eastern
paper, held by Western banks, on account
of scanty supplies In their own localities.
will run to maturity as the demand for
crory funds develops and renewals of these
notes wilt come to the Eastern banks for
application.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value,
$2,018,000. United States bonds were un
changed on- call.

HAY CROP A SHORT ONE
LITTLE WILL BE SHIPPED FROM
EIXENSBTJRG VAIXEY.
Market la Firmer svt Seattle Butter
Not Affected by the Port
land Advance.
6 BATTLE, Wash., July 2t). (Special.)
Advices received here today state that the
hay crop In the Ellensburg Valley will be
almost a failure this year, and that small
dependence can be placed upon shippers In
that locality. . There has been a big de
crease In the acreage and owing to the
breaking of an Irrigation dltca. mucM
damage was done the crop.
Alfalfa buying prices have been raised
to $11911.80. There Is a good demand for
alfalfa, but hay Is moving slowly.
Wheat was unchanged today. The senti
ment Is Inollned toward lower prlceA but
growers show no disposition to yield to the
collapse of Eastern and European markets.
Eggs were firm today, but no higher
prices are expected Oils week, as the trade
on the fresh stock has awltohed in a large
degree to Eastern.
Butter was steady. The advance at Port
land Is not expected to change the situation
here, as the supply Is ample, poultry
scarce.

SELLING PRESSURE HEAVY
Prices Almost Demoralized
in the
Car
Chicago Pit Over 1000
- loads , Expected " Today.
Coarse Grains - Weak.
CHICAGO, July 28. Weaknesses bordering
on demoralisation prevailed In the wheat
pit during the greater part of the day and
the market was subjected to a great amount
of stop-loss selling and renewed profit-tak
ing by minor holder.
There was a fair bulge following an open
tnr decline of 0-c ttt a owing to cov
ering by aborts, prompted by an official fore
cast for unsettled weather In sections of
the Winter wheat belt for tomorrow, but
the advance only served- to bring out
dlttonal sales, resulting In still greater
weaknesa The primary cause of the aell-lns-
pressure was the extremely liberal re
ceipts of new wheat hero and at St. Lout
and Kansas City. Arrivals here today ware
550 carloads, nearly 200 In excess of the of
ficial estimate, while at the two South
western centers more than 1,000,000 bushels
were received. Talk of receipts tomorrow
of more than 1000 oarloada was one of the
depressing factors during the last halt of
the day.
During the day, July sold between $1.08 l-
and $1.09 and September between $1.08 and
$1.06. Final quotations on July were at
$1,064 and on September, $L04.
Rains In Iowa -Missouri, Kansas and
other sections of the oorn belt removed
anxiety concerning the new crop and In
spired general selling, which resulted in de
clines from 1 to 2c. compared with Sat
urday's close. The market closed extremely
weak and near the low point of the day, at
net declines of 14140 to 140.
- The slump in wheat and corn, a deoltne
of 4 to 14e in the Drlce of the cash grain
and predictions of greatly tnareared receipts
within a raw days caused weakness in oata
The market closed weak. Ho to 14c under

NEW'THEORY OF BALDNESS
Caused by Tight-Fitting Hats Which
the Men Wear.
Columbia Btate.
Why do men have bald heads? Sur
geon J. O. Cobo, or trie unnea oiaies
Public Health and Marine Hospital Ser
vice, says that the sole reason for bald
heads Is found In the constricting bands
of men's, hats. Baldnesa, Bays this ex
pert on the pate, la not. caused by dan
druff, by parasites, or oy anyxningr ex
cept lack of circulation caused by tight
hatbands. In the New York Medical
Journal, Dr. Cobb ays:
'If a man s head is very wiae, or 11
he is very prominent fore and aft, that
man will become bald in time, because
such a person, to make his hat fit snug
ly, invariably pulls lt down tight. The
man with low Drow ana tniCK. neavy nair
rarely Is bald. It one wears tne nair
long and thick, lt acts as a cushion and
prevents. In a large measure, the con
striction oaused by the hat band."
The moral is plain: Either wear your
hair long, so as to give your head breath-
Ina- snaee. or If your hair is scant or
short, discard your hat and give the air,
and sunlight a chance. The savages wno
go bareheaded do not go baldheaded.
They seem to bear out Dr. Cobb's theory.
The men who sro around all day with
their hats tightly clapped on their heads
have few hairs to show when they reach
85 or 40.
Keen your hat off whenever you can.
and keep your hair. In the North the
number of hatless young men is con
stantly Increasing, and the custom, es

of going about bareheaded la rapidly
increasing. In the South during this
same heated season lt Is even more im
perative that hats be discarded as much
as possible, or entirely. With fewer hats
we shall soon have fewer bald heads.
And bald heads are not popular oven
among those who possess them.
Fruit Gardens in Russia.
Baltimore American.
Many Russian housewives are expert
in preparing fruit. For preserving,
cherries probably occupy first place,
followed by jam made from black
plums, which are produced in large
quantities in Southern Bessarabia. Apri
cots grow readily and sometimes give
great yields, when the fruit at the
Oarden Gate can be had for little more
than the cost of sratherlne; lt.
