THE- 3IOEXIXG OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, MAT 23, 1914. HIGH GRADE SCARCE Fine. Coffees Are Difficult to Get Hold Of. SHORTAGE WORLD WIDE Ordinary Sorts Will Remain About fr-tationary in Price, as They Are Much Cheaper Than Last Year or Year Before. Th coffee market is In a rather peculiar condition at tho present moment. It Is be tween seasons, as the BrlziP crop is just about to come to market, beinp from two to three weeks later than usual. Prices today for ordinary grades of cof fee are about 2 cents lower than they were last year. Prices for high-grade coffees are just as .high as .they were during last year. In January there was a little falling off In the price of high-grade coffees, but they have since recovered. The last crop in Brazil was rather more than the bulls predicted and dust what the beara, prophesied. This year's crop Is as yet an unknown quantity. She growing conditions were unfavorable, but it la a cer tainty that there will be comparatively lit tle fine coffee produced in Brazil. The general opinion seems to prevail that the crop will be from 2.0U0.Q00 to. 4,000,000 bags less than that of last year, but facili ties for gathering news are eo poor In Bra zil that It Is difficult to foretell just what It will be less than that of the 1013-14 aeason. There was never such a scraclty of high grade Brazil cofTees in the markets of the world and there never was such a premium paid for hlgh-grado Brazils as there is to day. This applies also to all Central American coffees as well hi to Javas "and Kumatras. It is almost impossible, to get re til line heavy drinking Bast Indian cof fees. From such information as can be se cured at the present time It Is reasonably ti.fj'o to assert that there will be no reduc tion in the price of high-grade coffees and ordinary coffees will remain about station ary, as they are much cheaper than they were a year ago and very much lower than they "were two years ago. BARLEY CROP TVTI-I BE LARGE ONE Exportable Surplus Promises to Be Greatest on Record. Oraln dealers estimate the barley crop of tha Pacific Coast this year as high as l,2-"0,-O0O tons. Crop prospects are the best known in ypara and the crop has been prac tically made. Harvesting has started in California. Local requiremen ts of the Coast are placed at about 600,000 tons, which will leave a big surplus of 650.000 tpns to ex port, figuring on the above crop estimate. The largest quantity ever shipped In one year, from this Coast was about 400.000- tons. Therefore, they think that prices will have to rule cheap until a large proportion of the surplus has been worked off. Under these conditions the market Is naturally weak for both the new crop and for spot supplies. Growers, accustomed to high prices for sev eral years, are not disposed to consider cur rent rates and barley .busrness Is practically neglected. There were no new developments In the wheat market. Business was almost at a standstill. Weekly foreign wheat shipments were as follows: This wk. Last wk. Last yr. tJi. 'ia rwm oi nun o one nnn Argentina" ..

Strawberries sold on the Italian farmers market yesterday morning at 85 cents to $1. On Front street prices ranged from $1 to 5-1.25. Receipts were heavy, but there was a good clean-up. There was a shipping de mand for all the good berries on hand. Apricots were more plentiful and sold at "52. Loganberries and raspberries were scarce. Cherries are holding up well at 10 cents. Vegetable arrivals from California from now on will be light. A car of celery, the last of the season. Is due from Florida Mon day, also a car of Stockton red onions. A i-ar of California new potatoes will arrive today. " Ftrm"ermanliJ""or Poultry. The poultry market was firm with only a light supply on hand. The best hens sold at 16 and 17 cents. Good broilers brought 27 centa. Dressed meats were quiet. The egg fnarket was steady at 21 and -1 cents, case ;ount. Candled eggs were quoted on the street at one cent premium, but the time is drawing near when a wider margin will have to prevail. ' Butter was steady at the going price.

RAILROADS MAY BUY SOON Marked- Improvement in Some Lines of General Business Confidence Xot Disturbed by Reports of Wheat Damage. NEW YORK, May 22. Dun's Review will say tomorrow: Higher temperatures in many sections have afforded stimulus to distribution of season able merchandise at retail, while jobbing trade has also benefited. In certain in stances, the improvement is marked, and, though future requirements are not being freely anticipated, the situation Is strength ened by the absence of large stocks. Confidence is not disturbed by reports of damage to Winter wheat. Prices, however, have advanced rather sharply. Substantial purchases of pig iron In East ern territory are an encouraging feature and have helped to sustain improved sentiment in the basic industry. The demand from the railroads is still confined to close limits, but It Is the expectation that an Increased buying movement will shortly develop. Failures this week, 359, against 425 last year; Canada, 36, against 33. RETAIL TRADE BEST IN MONTHS Improvement, First Noted In West, Has x Advanced Eastward. MEW YORK, May 22. Bradstreefs will say tomorrow; Better weather and improved retail de mand are the two fundamentally notable features of this week's trade. These, first noticed at the West last week have advanced Eastward and the result is probably the best trade in months at retail. Industry generally seems slow to gain ground. There Is still complaint of dull ness and short time in the iron and steel trades, but some large sales have been made of basic pig iron. .For the week: Failures, 296, against 265 last year; wheat exports, 4,786,569 bushels, against 6.471,046; bank clearings, S3,213,o63, 000, a gain of 1.6 per cent. SALES LIGHTEST OF YEAR LACIv OF INTEREST ' IX ALL SE CritlTIES MARKETS. Bonds Arc Steady, With Less Pressure Than Earlier in the Week; Stocks Are Firm at tbe Close. NEW YORK. May 22, Business on the Stock Exchange today was the smallest of any day thus far this year, the total over turn 93,600 shares comparing with 98,000 shares on March 2, when the blizzard. inter rupted communication. The low ebb re corded today was due to a lack of confi dence or indifference on the part of the speculators and investors in virtually all the securities markets of the world. The mar ket closed firm. - ; London's market was . weak, with" some further selling here for that account. A conservatixe estimate places the foreign sell ing here since the beginning of the year at not less than 300,000 shares. Another gold engagement of 2,000,000 for Paris was re ported. Local ' monetary conditions show no change. There was less pressure against the var ious speculative bonds and that list was fairly steady. Total sales, $1,450,000. United States bonds unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Reported by J. c. Wilson & Co.. Lewis building, Portland. Closing Sales. igh. Low. Bid.

Speaking; at " hat 1. Probably Final Event In Bulletins. Defend. Catholic Church. What is probably the lu.st reception tliat the Knights of Columbus -will eive in their old clubhouse at West Park and Taylor streets was held last night under the foi -'--of an "open house," to which the women friends of the mem bers were admitted. The Knights ex pect to start building their new home before Columbus day. Circuit Judge Kavanaugh was the principal speaker at the reception. "There is a marked reversion to the Catholic Church in France," he said. "I read that the same is triie in Nor way. The reversion is similar to the Oxford movement in England last cen tury. The world is following the watch word of the Knights of Columbus, and is constantly seeking "more light.' "The people of the United States have too much good American sense to believe tiie insidious charges that enemies are making against us. They are not against any man's religion or race. Publicity is all that is needed to overthrow the calumnies that are cir culated against us. "As a last resource our enemies have accused us of lacking patriotism. Even that has been taken from them by the recent Mexican troubles. The first man to give his life at Vera Cruz was a Knight of Columbus. Ensign Mc Donnell, who first raised the Stars and Stripes over Vera Cruz was a mem ber of our order. Charge O'Shaugh nessy, who has cared for the inter ests of the United States during the whole trouble, joined our order in Mex ico City." Others who took part in the programme were Miss Dagmar Inez Kelly, Robert Lovett Wilson, Miss Tiny Ledwedge, Miss Marie Chapman and the Hose City Quartet. The musical programme, was under the management of Professor V. W. Goodrich. T. G. Ryan presided. -Refreshments were served after the programme. St. Lawrence Children. Picnic. MILWAUKIE, Or., May 22.

ENGLISH CABLES STEADY losses for Day at Chicago Range Vp to Three-Quarters Corn Flurry Ufts Coarse Cereal Xear to Seventy-Cent Mark. CHICAGO, May 22. The wheat close was unsteady, 5,HiCto 4e e under last night. Corn wound up J to S4 c net higher, and oats w ith a gain of H to s?4c. In "pro visions the result was Pc to 10c decline. Corn climbed to within easy hailing dis tance of the of ten-wished-for- 70-cent mark. Persistence of unfavorable weather In Ar gentina had a bullish Influence. Trade, though, lacked volume. Subsequently pro nounced strength developed owing to a dry weather flurry and to an expected decrease in the Chicago stock. The elose was un settled. Although aSsence of . predicted general rain put a little firmness into wheat prices at the outset, a decline took place later on. Optimistic, reports as to crop con ditions in Kansas had much to do with weakening the market- Comparative stead iness of cables, however, acted as a check on the bears. ' Cnabated dry weather east of tho Mis sissippi tended to push oata higher. Houses with country connections all took to the buying side. . Provisions turned easy with hogs. There was no active demand from any quarter. The leading futures ranged as follows: ' . WHEAT. , - Open. High. Low. Close. May J .3S s .9S?4 .97 $ .g7! July 85 .t,3 .il-), .87 , CORN.
