' EXPORTERS HOLDING BACK I Foreign Trade Checked by Weakness and Uncertainty Abroad and by High Price of Ships Spot Market Is" Dull. Aside from a small demand for new wheat r .millers for late July and early August .hiDment. there is no business passing In the new crop market. Exporters are ham pered In their operations by the high and steadllT adrancinc freight rate and the un certain market conditions on the other side. Cargoes were quoted dull and weak yester day at Ss d for September-October ship ment.' Private cables reported many sellers an te market. Usually there is considerable buying by Exporters at this season of year, but It is probable the market this year will be slow er In opening, and the exporters may wait until the millers have secured their early wants. There were a few buyers on the market yesterday, and offerings were freer than they have been for some time past. No trading waa reported In the spot wheat market and prices were more or less nom inal around 14 cents on club and 87 cents on bluestem.' There Is some Oriental demand for flour, but with no transportation exporters are un able to consider the business.. Local receipts in cars were reported by the Merchants Ex change as foMowa: Wheat, Barley.- Flour. Oats. Hay.

The Eastern market for Columbia River salmon Is active, according to the New York Journal of Commerce, which says: "At the opening prices of $1.95 for tails. $2 for flats, and $1.25 ' for halves, buslnei In 1912 Spring pack Columbia River salmon has been active during the past two days and advance orders have been freely con I firmed. There has been some grumbling among buyers over the 5c advance on the price of halves compared with -last year's opening figures on that size, but it has not prevented buyers from confirming their ad vanced commitments for halves, which were made subject to approval of opening prices long In advance of the packing season. "The new pack Is coming oa a virtually bare market and buyers are eager to get de liveries on their- orders. According to some reports the confirmation of orders on halves has been less free than on No. 2 tails and flats, because of the greater differential be tween thep rice ot ta former slbe and that of the others."

Last week's poor bank statement, which" uncovered an actual deficit In the reserves and a much larger loss of cash than was expected, and the chances of an unfavorable showing In the monthly statement of the copper pro ducers and in the Government crop report. combined to produce a weak and feverish stock market. Prices of the more active shares made an average decline of over tw points, with a large part of the sellln centering about Amalgamated Copper and United States Steel, r There was further evidence of the artifi ciallty attaching to the copper market here and abroad, metal stocks suffering a severe reversal in (ine x.onaun mnnsi.

There were signs, too, that the Northwest was let ting go of wheat here. Bearish sentiment received considerable impetus by brilliant weather for threshing and marketing South west. Depressed cables and lack of ele vator room here counted likewise against the bulla The recovery of wheat from a semi-demoralized state appeared to be due to the ending of liquidation. A further help came through shorts taking prof its. ""Timely as sistance for the bulls developed, besides. In the visible supply decrease, which reached around a total of nearly 2.000,00 0 buahuls.
