Competition Not So Keen in
Local Market.
BUSINESS LIGHT IN EAST
Advance In Foreign Product Equals
the Duty Removed Hides Are
Scarce the World OTer and
May Not Become Cheaper.
The kx-al hide market Is not as actrva
now aa it was a abort time ago. The com
petition between local buyers Is leas keen
and they are not showing their former dLe
position to pay extreme prices In order to
get aunpllea
Trading In the East la light, according to
the latest advices received bjr local dealers.
Since the duty was taken off of hides, the
foreign nroduct has advanced and now costs
as much laid down aa It did before. If
bide prices generally were low. the trade
believes the placing of hides on the free
list would have made a difference In the
market, but hides are scarce all over the
world, and there Is no reason why th
should be any lowering of values.
The condition of the Eastern hide market.
according to the latest Dun's Review,
follows:
The market on hides has ruled generally
quiet this week, and but few sales have been
effected. Tanners have been more Interested
since the new tariff law went into effect in
getting to their tanneries the hides which
have been 'in bonded storehouses than in
purchasing fresh supplies. It is expected
that many tanners wlil be well supplied for
some time to come with foreign hides.
owing to the Immense quantities of these
that were held in bond and are now released
The Chicago packer hide market is still In
an entirely nominal position on most va
rfetlea, owing to the lack of sales, and such
transactions as have occurred have been at
reductions. One sale has been made of light
native cows at 15 He, and another lot of
branded cows sold at 14 Isc Country hides
are dull and weak, with Chicago dealers
asking 14c for buffs, but tanners are buying
at outside points on a lower basis than this
figure. Foreign dry bides are strong, and
some sales have been made on a slightly
higher basis than the previous quotations
that were with the 15 per cent duty added.
oma Bogota dry hides sold at 21 c. The
previous sales of these were at 1.14 c, duty
paid, and the duty amounted to 2 ' c
FOREIGN" COMMERCE FOB A YEAR.
Large tin re aee In Imports and Decrease In
Exports.

finished msnufactures. On the export side
the falling off extends to all the great
groups foodstuffs, raw material, manufac
tures. The net result was an Increase as

000. in imports and a decrease of 1196.000,

HEAVY TRADE IX FRI'IT MARKET.
Peaches Are In Moat Active Demand and
Bring Good Price.
Business In the fruit line Is of large pro
portions and everything of good quality
cleans op as soon aa offered.
Peaches were In most activa demand. The
best Crawfords brought $1 S 1.10 and small
fruit sold from 73 cents up. The supply la
still Inadequate, but there will be more
peaohes available the latter part of next
w reek and prices should be lower. .
Plums, prunes and ripe pears were scarce
yesterday. Cantaloupes sold well and melons
were also active. Blackbeniea were firm at
$1.73. Grapes moved at former prices.
The latest circular of the California Fruit
Distributors says of the movement of Cali
fornia peaches and grapes:
Shipment of Elbertas. Susquehannaa and
other freestone peaches is almost completed.
Come fine Yellow Clings ar now available
and beginning with next week a limited
number of care of 6alwaya will be offered.
The crop of Salway peaches la materially
lighter than last year and will probably not
run more than 23 to SO per cent of last
year's output.
Orapee are now moving In considerable
quantity, and from this time on will be
available as wanted. The movement at
present consists of Malagas and Rose de
Peru mostly. Some straight carloads of
Tokays will move to auction points this
week and next week we should be able to
quote them to the f. o. b. trade. The weather
has continued very favorable for grape de
velopment. The fruit Is filling out nicely
and taking on color rapidly. From present
I Indications the crop will be not only liberal
In quantity but of desirable quality.

NEW TORK, Aug. 10. Today's stock
market was again very Irregular, when not
altogether disorganized. At the opening,
most declines were fractional, but before
the end of the first hour the movement
gathered greater momentum under a fresh
accumulation of selling orders and reces
sions of 2 points or more were recorded.
The business of the morning session was
estimated at over TOO.OOo shares. Early
In the afternoon the decline took a fresh
j start with further liquidation In Union Pa
cific, Southern paciile, Reading Bteei arm
others of the active group.
Apprehension existing In many quarters
regarding the health of E. H. Harriman and
a rumor that a "shaking out" of the rank
and file was deemed advisable by those
who are suuDosed to be in control of the
market's machinery made the market heavy.'
Throughout the day considerable strengtn
was shown by United States Rubber, Amer
ican Car and Foundry and American Lo
comotive. Dealings In four stocks Union
Pacific. Southern Pacific, Reading and
United States Steel made up fully 60 per
cent of the day's business, which aggregated
l,4-"0,000 shares. The close was steady.
Forecasts of the weekly cash movement
Indicate a gain of about 13.600.000 by local
banks. Better cotton crop conditions In
Texas, cooler weather In the corn belt, record-breaking
sales of wool In Boston and a
marked decline In copper exporta for the
week were reported.
The bond market was again weak. ' Total
sales, par value, $4,978,000. Government
bonds were unchanged.

port Purchases and Most of
Ixss Is Regained.
CHICAGO, Aug. 20. Ideal weather for the
harvesting of the new crop of wheat in the

wheat having been sold for export Induced
covering, which resulted In a rally of about
lc- in all deliveries. The market closed fairly
steady.
Growing belief that the corn crop of the
Southwest Is being seriously Injured by drouth
Inspired lively buying of corn, which resulted

became much steadier. Prices at the close

Receipts From Oregon Are Increas
ing:, Owing to the High Prices
Already Quoted There. ,
SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 20. (Special.)
The egg market here developed consider
able strength during the day, and In some
quarters efforts were made to secure 38
cents. That price, however, did not meet
the approval of most Jobbers, who continued
10 sell at 87 cents. Receipts from Oregon
are increasing. The difference In prices
quoted on the two markets is so wide that
Oregon shippers are finding it more profit
able to ship here than to Portland.
There was an exceptional demand for
peaches today. Consumers appear to be in
the market for a supply of canning, stock.
Prices were higher on fancy stock, as hlgk
as S1.25 being obtained. Poor stock went as
low as 80 cents.
There was some talk of higher butter
prices for next week, although nothing
definite waa done.
Wheat waa dull and unchanged, but con
siderable activity was reported from the
country. Millers are active bidders for
bluestem, but they Insist on Immediate de
livery. Millers who nave expected an announce
ment from the State Food Department on
the bleached flour question In this state
will be disappointed, for Commissioner
Davies has left for his home In Eastern
Washington and will not make a decision
until his return about the first of the month.
