TIIE SIORXrN'G 10 WOOL BUYERS READY Season in Eastern Oregon Opens This Week. GROWERS' PRICES AWAITED l-'irst Purchases Will Be Made in Pendleton District o Further Buying in Washington East ern Idaho Well Sold Tp. This week will witness the actual opening of the Oregon wool market for the current season. Buyers and manufacturers agents are in the field in the eastern part of the state and all seem very anxious to do business. They are ready to contract for unshorn wool ff growers will only set a price. It Is probable the first buying will be In the Pendleton district. Shearing Is now under way around Echo, and there has been some shearing; in a small way in other sections. It will be two weeks yet before shearing Is general in Eastern Oregon. It Is reported that most of the Lake-view wools have been contracted for, a well as clips running up into the Bend country. The prices bid were high and Induced quick selling. There has been no further trading in Eastern Washington since the last report. Practically all the wools that have been shorn there have been sold, and buyers are hesitating about contracting for the wool still on the sheep's back, owing to the un certainty as to what the condition of the clips -will be when shorn. Shearing will start around Plymouth and Roosevelt In a few days.' Buying operations are- also slow in West ern Idaho, although there are buyers on the ground. Shearing is starting in differ ent localities, but will not be general until May 1. The big end of the clip in the eastern part of Idaho has already been placed under contract. LOCAL DEMAND FOR EGGS IS STRONG Speculators Offering; Higher Prices In Coun try Chinese Eggs Coming. Egg storers took everything offered them yesterday at 13 cents, and some of them even bid this price at country points. As a consequence, the loi-al market was again firm, .Last year at the end of the storing season at the close of May there were about 400,000 cases of eggs in local coolers. Speculators estimate that fully as many Oregons will be put away this season. One company alone expects to store 40 cars. In addition to these the local , refrigerators will have a considerable quantity of Chinese eggs, esti mated at between 7500 and SOOO cases. These large storage operations make the future outlook uncertain, yet speculators are not . hesitating about putting away eggs. . The Canadian Pacific steamer Empress of Russia, which reached Vancouver. B. C, Saturday, brought over between 10,000 and 13.000 cases of. Chinese eggs. One lot of 10OO cases out of this shloment Ik rn mine- to Portland, and possibly another lot of the same size. The next steamer, the Empress of India, due at Vancouver on April 23, will buing J3.O00 cases of Chinese eggs. WHEAT Or IE RINGS ALMOST CEASE. Holders Asking- Higher Prices for Small Supply Kemalnlojr. - - The wheat marker opened quiet for the lack of -offerings. There was the customary moderate demand and dealers bid the prices that prevailed last week, but sellers are con tinually asking more. From now on, no de cided activity in trade can be looked for. The Eastern market was depressed by the certainty that the Government crop report today will be bearish. The foreign situa tion Is explained by Broomhall as follows: "The market has ruled within a narrow range during tlie week, with the prominent feature being the excellent prospect of the new American winter wheat crop; on the other hand, shipments to the United King dom have been small, with a better demand for Australian. In' the United Kingdom na tive reserves are lighter. and in parts greatly depleted, while Germany has mar keted heavily, and this Is improving the outlook for marketing of Russian and Amer ican wheats of the remaining surplus for the ensuing four months. Argentina and .India have shipped and are shipping far smaller than last year, while Australia and North America are contributing about equal to last year, thus leaving Russia and the Danube to make good the deficiency in In dia and Argentina. Shipments for the sea son have been heavy, but there Is no accum ulation in supply, and therefore It Is not un likely that the market will remain In its lethargic state if a legitimate reason for an advance should occur.1 Korelgn crop conditions arc summarized as follows: United Kingdom The weather Is unset tled and the xecont .rain lias delayed sow ing, -particularly rtl, roarsn grain. Native supplies are light, and in parts very light. trance The weather is unsettled and owing to the recent wet spell it is feared that there will be a reduction In the wheat area in the North and elsewhere, Germany The wet weather has caused a delay In sowing of the crop. The weather now is more favorable and native offers are very small. Russia Crop accounts are generally favor able, with some complaints of damage from the Eaat and central provinces. Arrivals to porta are increasing slowly, but the general movement Is disappointing. Rouraanlt The- outlook is generally fav- oraDia. Hungary Crop outlook is favorable. Sup plies are very small.

The cheese tnar.et dropped a cent yester day with the delivery of a large shipment of triplets from Tillamook. Tna new baae prtra is 20 cents. Now that the market has started to decline, after an unusually long period of unchaQg?d prices, the downward tendency of the market will probably b steady. Butter was steady and unchanged at last week's prices. Poultry receipts were small but enough were carried over from Saturday to fill all requirements. Hens were quoted at 17 cents. There was no Improvement In the dressed meat market. BERRIES ARRIVE IN FOOR ORDER Fruit Shows Effect of Steadky Kain la California. There was a fair supply of strawberries yesterday, but the quality of most of the offerings was poor. The first shipment came in from Fresno, but did not sell readily at the prices asked, $1.23 2 a crate. The best Fiorina could be had at S2. A few freezers came from Los AntiM nH ram nt ik cents a basket. The expected 'car of Los Angeles berries has not been started yet, as It has been raining almost steadily in that part of the country. A car of California lettuce came in yes terday, also a car of San Francisco cabbage. A car of Los Angeles cabbage is due today. Bank Clearings.

BONDS. WHEAT EASES OFF Traders Look for Flattering Crop Report Today. PRICE DECLINE STEADY Balls Lnuble to Clipck Flail In Prices and Closing Range Is Lonet of Day Corn Stronjj Despite Foreign Offerlnss. CHICAGO. April 6. Chances that the crop report tomorrow will prove of the most flattering sort tended today to lower the price of wheat. The market closed easy at 1. w 4c to .c net decline. Cora finished with a gain of c to 49c. oats up 9 c to c and provisions varying from a shade off to 5 eents advance. It was in vain the bulla urged that the knowledge of nearly perfect crop conditions and of big acreage had hung over tho wheat market for 60 days, that fully three months would elanse before harvest In any part of the world, and that consumption has been In progress at a rate never before equaled. No Important rally took place and the last hour of trading saw tha lowest prices of the oay. wnn juiy zinisning at tne bottom level reached. Despite free offerings from Argentina all along tho noiit from tha St. Lawrence to Texaa. the com market here turned strong. Shortage of -corn for quick domestic use, by Interior stale via said to be growing more urgent. The Missouri April report, disclosed only one-third of a supply compared with a year ago. Wet weather, that meant delay for seed Ing. brought firmness to oats. Provisions rallied on account of a fair demand from the South. At the outset, however, the market seemed to be headed down grade In sympathy with a break in the price of hogs.

Aitnotntii the O.-W. R. & N. Co.'s Co'ote-Stanfleld cutoff wil be only 27.4 miles In length, it will effect a Kreat economic savln-r In future operation of trains, eliminate distance, curvature and frrade and reduce the time for the movement of tralllc between Portland and Eastern Orefron. Twohy Bros., the contractors, now have two large forces of men at work on the project and expect to have it completed and ready for operation by the end of the Summer. The new cutoff connects with the main line at a point two miles went of Coyote, on the western end. and Im mediately east of r-tantield on the east ern end. The distance between those two points over the present line Is ap proximately S7 miles.. The new piece of track, therefore will save about 10 miles in distance.- Engineers of the company also have figured that the new line will eliru nate a total of 15S0 decrees of curva ture the equivalent of nearly 4 -i complete circles as well aa 15S feet of steep -rrade in either direction. The maximum grade on the new line will be six-tenths of 1 per cent. On the present line it 1 1 per cent With the new line in use, the main line trains between Portland and Huntington will not pass through I'matilLa, the present division point. Umatilla, however, will remain on the main line between Portland and Spo kane. It Is probable, too, that west bound freight traffic will continue to move over the old line from Standeld. via Umatilla, to Coyote, thus giving the company the use of two separate tracks.
