Stocks Rally After a Bear
Drive.
GOOD GAINS ARE MADE
M 1011 r! Pacific ensealed but Not

Company's Directors tex
Icans Are Higher.
NEW TORK. April 19. Wall street was
confused today by th situation arising from
yesterday's crisis In th affairs of Missouri
Pacific, which constituted th chief In
fluence, In th stock market. Uncertainty as
to th outcome of th disruption of ths
road' directorate and withdrawal of the
Kuhn, Loeb a Co. representatives and rague
fears of further complications gav rise to
ora uneasiness, but strong support, which
was offered, defeated attempts to" depreaa
price. 31tourt Pacific was ths strongest
stock In the list, although a number of
other Issues made good gains.
Although the advance of Missouri Paclflo
from 43 In January to 63 In February was
based oa th new that new Interests com
manding the confidence of the financial
world would assume control, deflnlt sev
erance of these relations brought no corre
sponding disturbance.
The belief was aeneral that dtscontlnnsnc
of relations between th Goulds and th
Kuhn-Loeb Interest would not Interfer
with plans for meeting the financial re
quirement of th system. .
A report which was spread lat In the day
that substantial banking Interests had agreed
to take up the responsibility of financing
the road met with general acceptance, th
more readily because th bankers men
tioned In that connection are known to b
Identified closely with th Rockefeller In
terests. - Tber wer few variation In prices of
stocks until the last hour, when th bear
mnd a final drive. The market wavered
and broke, but was supported as promtly
and efficiently as In the morning. Stocks
roae quickly to th best level of the day.
Missouri Pacific making a gain of 2 and
other Issues showing several advances.

at tho start In the wheat pit came as a re
sult of Liverpool reports of firmer offerings
from Australia, India and Argentine today.
There) was also at one time a rally because
of export sales at Winnipeg. Neither bulge
lasted, however. On the other hand, longs
displayed considerable anxiety to let go of
holdings. Short, too. were eagerly on watch
throughout the session. The bears de

mary receipts were less than a year ago

Decides to Give Portland Ex
change the Selling of All
Its Product.
Th following special announcement was
Issued yesterday by the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange:
An adjourned stockholders' meeting of the
Rogue River Fruit and Produce Association
aa held at Medford on Tuesday. April 11.
a mtmhor of Imivtrllnl OUPAtiOnS Wn) dlB-
cussd. among them being the question of
marketing. Various reports were p""
A . i. - tnnphinr tea different
marketing methods extant, and at a special
meeting of the board of directors of the
Rogue River Fruit and rroauce a""v
held on the following Saturday. April l
i that III. association shall
Join the Northwestern Fruit Exchange, and
market Ita entire output or appie "
season ot 1B1L
Accordingly membership agreements with,
the Northwestern Fruit Exchange were exe
cuted, and the exchange will handle the
selling of the entire output of apples of
the Rogue River Fruit and Produce Asso
ciation. This action was taken after a very
careful Investigation of the records, equip
ment snd facilities of the exchange, and a
comparison of tho exchange e average re
ulta with those obtained in the same dis
trict under other methods of marketing.
During the season of 1810. th Rogue
River Association was not a member of
the Northwestern Fruit Exchange, having
made its marketing arrangements some time
before the exchange was organlxtd. How
ever, at odd times during the season, I!S
carloads of fruit were sold by the North
western Fruit Exchange for the RoKue River
Association, at average prices appearing
hereunder:

In passing. It may be of Interest to say
a word about the Rogue River Fruit and
Produce Association. This association is
not only one of the best organized in the
entire Northwest, but is also one of the
largest The association operates twelvo
shipping stations, covering the entire) Rogue
River Valley for a distance of about 55
miles. On lta board of director It num
bers several very prominent men promi
nent not only In the frult-growlr.g; world,
but men of wide, varied business experi
ence. Th president. Colonel R. C. Wash
burn, is a man of extensive experience In
the East, and a large orchard owner. Mr.
C. E. Whisler, vice-president, needs no in
troduction as he Is known far and wide
wherever fruit Is grown. Mr. K. S. Miller,
general manager of the association. Is con
sidered one of the best executives in the
industry. Mr. Reginald H. Parsons, presi
dent of the Northwestern Fruit Exchange,
and president of the Hlllcrest Orchard Com
pany, controlling 200 acres in th Rogus
River Valley, and Mr. A. C Randall, one
of the directors of this exchange, and presi
dent of the Talent Orchard Company, com
prising over 300 acres of trees in the Rogue
River Valley, are both directors in the
Rogue River Fruit and produce Associa
tion. Prof. P. J. O'Gara, who is known far
and wide throughout tho Northwest ss a
former expert in the United States Govern
ment Department of Agriculture. Bureau of
Pomology, and who is an authority in all
of the scientlfl: branches of horticulture, is
aiso one o the association's directors. The
other directors are all prominent fruit
growers, and altogether the Rcgue River
Fruit and Produce Association Is one of
the strongest Institutions of Its kind lu the
Northwest.
That an association under such manage
ment should recognixe the value of the
service of tile Northwestern Fruit Exchange
and become a member of It. Is an eloquent
testimonial of the clean methods and suc
cessful operations of the exchange during
its present year.
Inasmuch as the exchange is under tho
complete control of bona fide fruitgrowers,
and Is rendering a scientific service at a
very low rate. It Is coming generally to be
regarded as entirely worthy of earnest sup
port and encouragement.
Counting the Rogue River Association,
there are now 13 different fruitgrowers', as
sociation In Washington. Oregonand Idaho
which have signed membership agreements
with the Northwestern Fruit Exchange.
