NO' BANANA SCRAP
Local Jobbers Decline to
Drawn Into War.

NOTHING GAINED BY IT
if Prices Arc Slashed,. It AVI II Have
to lie Done at Gull Importing
Ports and 2Vot Here Com
- petitor Is AVelcomed.
T.ocat. fruit wholesalers believe an effort
Is being' made to entangle tliem in a banana
war. Up to this time the Fruit Dispatch
Company has supplied all the bananas con
sumed In this market, but a competitor has
now entered the field , and the banana trust
would no doubt like to see trouble stirred
up over the matter, prooably not so much to
harass the newcomt-r s ' to start a price
cutting campaign, which, would mean a
larger consumption of bananas. Front street
people have no objections to prices being
cut, but the cutting must be done by the
banana, magnates and not at the expense
of the local dealers.
Five cars of Fruit Dispatch bananas came
In yesterday and they were a line delivery,
which shows what the big company can do
when it wants to. - Four cars from Vacarro
Bros., the independent concern, will arrive
this morning. They are guaranteed of su
perior quality and will sell at the same
price as the trust bananas. In the mean
time the importing companies at the Guif
ports have tacked a 10-ecent advance to
their Quotations and yet they want the
Portland dealers to start a price-cutting
crap.
"Why should we have a banana war?"
said a Front-street dealer yesterday. "It
would do us no good, so far as I can see.
The banana people, of course, want to sell
more bananas and they want to hold the
suck. No, sir. If there is going to be a
banana war we are going to hold the sack
or nothing doing1. The trust is worried
because -a competitor has come in. Let the
competitors come in, I say."
Vacarro Bros. bananas have been on the
Seattle market for the past five weeks and
there has been no trouble there. The same
fruit has monopolised the Los Angeles mar
ket Tor "many "months nd no war has de
veloped. Why an attempt should be made
to foment trouble in Portland is what the
Incal dealers cannot understand. They
must emphatically decline to be made the
goat in any scrap.

Tha first car of cantaloupes will arrive
by express Saturday. ilalf the car will

for .Portland yesterday.
A shipment or Early Alexander peaches,
the first of the season, arrived and sold at
Another shipment is -due today. Apri
cots were more plentiful and lower at $1.73
s crate.
The strawberry market was heavily sup
plied and weak. " Prices on the street
ranged from 75 cents to $1.35. Black Tar
tarian cherries were received from Lewis-
ton and sold at $1.50 a box. White cher
ries were steady at 10 ($13 Is cents a pound.
r lorida grapefruit hs been advanced to
$t.50 a box. - The last car of the season Is
in. Lemons are strong and will be higher
next week.
Among the vegetable arrivals was a car
of Florida tomatoes. New California potatoes
were active at.'JVi cents. ...County Fruit X n-
spector Stunsbery. who Is watching the
receipts for tuber moth, reports that the
supplies now coming aro absolutely clean
DOMESTIC WOOLS A RE NOW IN LEAD
Attention of Ituyers Being Turned From
Foreign Product.
Trading In domestic wools in the Eastern
markets has displaced the interest in the
Imported' product, according to mail ad
vices. In the past week nearly 1,500,000
pounds of the new territory clip has been
turned over at Boston. Buyers have taken
them, fceely and sellers have secured a good
profit on the early shorn supplies. In the
meantime further purchasing is being car
ried on in the West at prices In some In
stances 6 to 7 cents above the level of
last year. Of the increase In the scoured
cost It is said:
"It is suggested that the scoured cost of
fine staple territory, laid down here, pos
sibly will reach as high as 70 cents. The
average basin of territory, scoured, is figured
at 53 to 60 cents, according to wools re
cently sold in the West. The scoured cost
-f territory wools sold the past week to
buyers in this market by dealers ia esti
mated as tin to 57 cents. Thus it may be
seen that the later-bought wools are at a
basis which means a scoured cost consider
ably higher than that on which the supplies
bought early are now being secured by man
ufacturers." W1IKAT OFFFJFlr:i; ".BYJTOCNTRY MILLS
Scramble- to Sell In California, the Ouly
Mtrkct. Demoralizes Prices.
The wheat market continues quiet and
eak. There is a little demand for wheat
In California, but thi. is the only outlet,
and a scramble to depose there of the rem
nants that are- left has demoralized prices.
More or less of the wheat that is being of
. Jered is coming from country mills. Club
Is held to be worth about S5 or S6 cents
locally.-
The new -crop market Is slow in opening.
A little wheat has been bought on the
basis of SO cents for early shipment. This
ts to fill Aujjust Oriental steamer space,
which was taken at $1 less than space can
bt- booked for on September tonnage.

it soon extended to over three, while the
