17 THE BIORJTCXG OKEGOXIA3. SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1911. LAST PUBLIC SALE Shaniko Wools Taken at Strong Prices. RANGE 1534 TO 18 CENTS Clips Are of Poorer Quality Than Those Offered at Bis Sale of Two Weeks Ago Eastern Markets Are Firm. The last public wool sale of the season in Oregon was held yesterday at Shaniko. There are about 600.009 pounds of wool left scattered throughout the state, mostly In small lots, and the next week or 10 days will see these remnants of the 1914 Oregon clip picked up and the season brought to an end. The market has lost none of its firmness, as was shown by the prices paid at 8hanlko yesterday. The quality of these wools was , not equal to those offered at the big sale two weeks ago, which explains the differ ence in price. Particulars of yesterday's sale axe given In the following dispatch: Shaniko, Or., June 1. (Special.) The wool sales at Shaniko today cleaned up all the wool In this district for this season. There were only four buyers In the field and the prices paid were 2 cents lower than at the first sale. The wools were not equal In quality to those sold before. The principal lots sold were Bex Arnwlne, 17,820 pounds to Green at 17 cents; J. J. Connolly, 17,098 pounds to Livingston at 1IM eents: phys Humphreys, 18.207 pounds to Koshland, IS cents; R. R. Keys, 18,207 pounds to Uvlngston at 18 cents; Angus Mclnnls. 8120 pounds to Green at 1514 cents; R. McDonald, 19,977 pounds to Green at cents; Frlnevllle Land ds Livestock Company, 96,635 pounds to Burke and Kosh. land at 16 cent? There were several small lots of one and two sacks bought- by Livingston at 18 cent. There is not much likelihood of a reac tion in foreign wool prices this Summer. Boston wool men predict a substantial ad vance in medium crossbred at the next series of auctions In London, which open July 7. Mail orders from Boston say: "It Is hinted that the recent movement in South American low quarters and New Zealand 44s and 46s was prompted by the apprehension of such a turn at the coming sales. The scarcity of. desirable wools abroad is evidenced in the late advices from the Continent. It Is said that French and other combing mills have been obliged to atop partially because of the- lack of sup plies. "Reports from the other side state that Bradford still Is buying freely of both tine and crossbred wools. Dealers who have been abroad from this center somewhat con firm these advices by saying that topmak ers In Bradford are likely to be keen com petttora for desirable wools at least through the July sales In London. These dealers assert that large contracts for tops In some cases still have months to run and that the makers must cover to some extent, though doing the business at a loss. They say that the demand to meet such obllgatlona Is per- ' alstent and heavy. "Altogether it appears as though no like lihood of lower values In London is held forth for conservatives, though reports from London say that the adjustment of yarn and J fabrics to a levei commensurate- .with the raw product Is very slow. The present con ditions In Australia, moreover, are as bullish as those In England. Recent purchases In Brisbane and Sydney have been fully on a parity with English distributing points. The next sale at Brisbane will be held June 16 and Sydney will have another eight days later." WASCO COTJXTY HOPS BKXMG 15 CENTS Orders on Market for Contracts Bat Growers Are Strong. The Merz & Houser crop of 70 bales of Tygh Valley heps was bought yesterday by T. A. Llvesley tc Co, at 15 cents. Several buyers were In the market for con tracts at 15 cents, but growers will not sell. California advices noted the sale by Hlnk-. Icy & Campbell of 100 bales at Santa Rosa, and added there were orders for spots at 14. and 14 cents, but growers are holding out for more money. f A Saas letter reported that the new plant ' shows an uneven run of vine, and Is back ward about 10 days. Aphis has made Its appearance and growers are busy spraying. Tarda that had a strong lice attack last . year are most backward. The Saas market was .quiet, but owing to the small stocks there has been no decline. Medium and best grades were ' quoted at 2TO so 290 crowns -.Prices lh Austria were equal to 110 to- ISO shillings per hundredweight.

Grauibag sales were reported yesterday at 8.45 cents; Vgalnst 8 cents quoted a few dsys ago. A gralnbag dealer said: "There la going to be a crash in bags and it is coming quick. The supply Is greater than can be used, and as 191G bags are worth only 8 centa, no one wants to carry any over. In anticipation of late shipments, the price was run up altogether too high. The shipments were received unexpectedly early and there are more July buyer bags than a place can be found for." Another dealer saidt The bag market la quiet, with little de mand. It is not especially weak, and would not sell under 8 cents." Good Demand for Poultry. Poultry receipts were lighter yesterday and supplies cleaned up well. There was a good demand for hens at 13 14 cents. Broilers mnveH fairlv well. . Dressed meats were steady. Arrivals of eggs continue to decrease, and the market Is firm with an upward ten dency.

WORSTED MILLS ARE BUSY Promise of Great Harvests Is Most Important Factor in Business . Situation Retail Distri bution Tjarger. NEW YORK, June 19. Dun's review will say tomorrow: . Confidence remains unshaken and while conditions are not wholly satisfactory, yet the volume of trade is very steady. The promise of Bountiful harvests is the factor cf most weight. Worsted mills are busy and some manu facturers of woolens are actively engaged, with prices higher because of the firmness in raw wool. On the whole business in footwear continues backward and generally unsatisfactory, although eviaences oi im provement are not entirely lacking. rnnflletina- reDorts are received aa to con dition in the Iron and steel trade, bot the situation has, nevertheless. Improved. Failures this week In tne united amies are 333. against 264 last year. WHOLESALE TRADE IS LOOKING UP Retail Distribution Is on Larger Scale Col lections Easier. NEW YORK, June 10. Bradstreefs will say tomorrow : Excellent all-round crop advices continue to extend the circle of optimism, which wirin t a ereater rate than actual buying. However, evidences of Improvement In trade are accumulating in tne surplus crop grow ing sections, which Is in snarp contrast to that noticed in the essentially Industrial regions. But over a large area distribution at re tall is better, wholesale trade Is looking up, demand for Iron and steel Is larger, collec tions are somewhat easier, trartic on weat n r,ll,nai!i la increasing and heavyv sales nf uhA&t for exoort are reported. On the other hand, traae in tne ami rather slowly and a similar statement ap plies to the Faciao jNortnwesi. Fa, tlie week: Bank clearings, $3,139,180,- 000, a decrease of 4.1 per cent from last year; wheat exports. 8,685,306. against 5.828,428 last year; failures, 249, against 235. BOND PRICES ADVANCE STOCK MARKET IS QUIET BUT TJS DERTONE IS FIRM. Pending; Deeisloa la Freight Bate Case, Speculators Are Not Dlaaeaed te Take Decided Stand. NEW YORK, June 19. Except for the Rock Island securities, which were nnusual Iv active and covered a wide range, the stock market today was quiet and flat. The undertone was firm and there was a slight upward tendency. Speculatora were as reluctant as before to take a decided position pending the much-discussed' deci sion in the freight-rate case. Early in the day it was reported that the Rock Island reorganization plan would be announced shortly and heavy trading in the securities of the company relieved the dullness during the early hours. The bonds, with the exception of the collater als, were bid up strongly.' The debenture bonds were most active. They rose to 77 , a gain of 7 points in two days. The col lateral 4s dropped 2 to 30, the lowest price on record. Demand sterling broke 40 points, making a decline of about 100 points in three days. Despite this movement, exportstlons of gold continued, $1,500,000 being engaged today. Owing largely to the gold movement, preliminary estimates of tomorrow's bank statement, based on known movements of currency, suggested a shrinkage In cash of $4,000,000 to $8,000,000. Aside from the Rock Island Issues, the movement of the bond market was small. Some issues, which recently were weak, in cluding St. Louis & San Francisco refund ing 4s, were higher. Total sales, par value. $2,733,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Reported by J. C. Wilson & Co.. Lewis building, Portland. Closing Sales. High. Low. Bid.

ADVANCE OF HALF CENT Country Offerings Are Larger bat Effect on Market Does Xot last. Slow Eastern Demand Depresses Corn. CHICAGO, June 19. Big export business here and higher prices at Liverpool kept the wheat market today on the advance. The close was steady, to o above last night. The outcome in corn was c eft to l-ldc up and for oats c to 4?c net gain. Provisions finished all the way from lOo decline to a rise of 2 05c. Wheat prices advanced in sympathy with stronger Liverpool cables. Attar opening c to o higher, trie market continued to lean to the bull side. Subsequently an enlarge ment of country offerings eased the market a little, but the effect did not last. Although corn at first reflected the strength of wheat, a reaction soon took place. The opening ranged from a shade off to 0e advance, but about all of the gains were wiped out and July went well under last night's level. Slowness of East ern demand had a depressing influence. Crop danaage reports made the oats mar ket firm. Lack of demand caused provisions to sac. The leading futures ranged as follow: WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.
