THE MORNING OREGONIAN. SATURDAY, JANUARY 30, 1915. 17 BEST CARGO SALE Mancunia, to Load on Sound, Brings 61 Shillings. RECORD FOR THE SEASON Freights Are Also Tending Cpward. Ko Wheat Transactions on local Exchange, Owing to High' Prices Asked. The highest price paid for a Pacific Coast Wheat ciito since the war began was ob tained by Strauss & Co., who yesterday sold the Manchuria at Gls. The buyer pays the war insurance. The steamer will be on the Bound neat week and will be loaded by the Northern Grain & Warehouse Company. The advance in cargo Quotations, how ever. Is not keeping, pace with the rise in ocean freights, as shown by the chartering yesterday of the steamer Kish at 35s. Ex porters figure that current local wheat quo tations are out of line 8 or 4 cents, as compared with values In England. . Still the market here continues to advance. Nearly all bids on the Merchants' Ex change were raised yesterday. February and March bluestem were up a cent and half a cent respectively, the same deliveries of fortyfold gained a cent and March club advanced 2 cents, although February was stationary. Fife was even stronger than whita wheat, as the February delivery was bid up Hi cents and March 2i cents. No trading in wheat resulted, as holders were bullish and demanded extreme price. The airread between the bid and asked prices was 1 to 2 cents for spot and X to 8 cents tor futures. There was a large sale of club wheat at walla Walla at -equal to coast. The only sale was 100 tons of February eats at 136.75, an advance of a quarter over -ehe previous day. April oats were up SO cents u bid. Barley was 25 to. 60 cents higher on the local exchange and very strong In the country, where sales can be made above Portland prjeea. Local receipts.

Conserviitive estimates place the amount f bluestem wheat, the staple product of the Big Bend country, in storage at Daven port, Creston, Wilbur, Almira, Hartline and Coulee City at close to COO. 000 bushels. There Is little prospect of any considerable sales at tho present level of prices, which yesterday averasod $1.32 at these points, a price JO cents above, that ever before re ceived in the Bis Bend country. In other parts of the Big Bend, notably Sprague, Harrinston, Mohler. Odessa. Krupp and Wil son Creek, 1js whcTt is being held by tho farmers, the amount at these points being estimated at leas than 3uu,0UU bushe.s. Very IttUo wheat has been disposed of by 'the farmers of tho Big Bmrf Tsmco .the price passed the dollar mark and tho owners are nervously watching tha market, with the prosper, that should the Coast market show Indications of a pronounced downward trend practhaliy atl the product will be dumped for sale. Most of those holding wheat now are expecting to ultimately receive 91.50 at the warehouse. Tho average price of that already sold in the Big Bend -country, amounting to close to 3rt.0O0.otK bushels, was about t0 cents. mud it lias placed -the farmers in a state of prosperity that has enabled them to pay 01T many mortgages and has caused a con sequent ea sines in farm loans, with ratea of about 6 Per cent prevailing, a rate of about 1 per cent less than last year. Heavy improvement work on most farms Is being planned and the largest acreage ever planted is in prospect if the war cob tiuues at planting time In tho early Spring. 1I.1IKR SUGAR IS KXJKCTEI TODAY Xastera Market Strong, With Transportation ' Becoming; iSeriou Problem. Jobbers are looking for an advance in j Coast sugar prices this morning. There was 1 a ro-point advance in raws In the East yes terday and refined grades jn that section nave been raised twice within a week. The market on the whole is decidedly firm. The pressure of the crop movement. Instead of making i toe If felt, seems as far off as ever, owing to the unseasonable rains which have checked grinding in Cuba. But at the present moment this is overshadowed by the freight situation, which ia taking on serious proportions. A New York authority writes: "To the misfortune of bad weather this year must be added that of a serious scarcity of steamer tonnage, it has recently been stated by freight journals that the British government has chartered an estimated ton nage of 1.600,000 to transport troops and supplies, while Germany's merchant fleet, ag gregating about S.SGO.OOOMons, Is lying in enforced Idleness in various porta through out the world, and even American vessels heretofore engaged in the Cuban and Porto Hi can trades with the United States have lately been diverted to more lucrative trans atlantic business. In these circumstances it la now estimated that from 40 per cent to 60 per cent of the world's total mercantile tannage has been withdrawn for one reason or another from the usual channels of trade, from which it will be seen at a glance that the plight of shippers of sugar is becoming one of serious concern, and it is to be hoped that ways and means will be found to tide over thia emergency, as the solution of the freight problem promises some difficulty upon approach of the season of heaviest con sumption, when the country always requires to steadily draw large quantities from Cuba," STEADY MOV EM-EN T IN" HOP MARKET This Season's Crop, Olds and Contracts Are In Demand. The Srath crop of 53 bales of hops at Fherwood was bought yesterday by McNeil Bros, at 11 cents. The same firm bought the J 'nsen lot of 03 bales at Chehalls. also at 11 cents. Clute & Pernoll, of Grants Pass, are reported to have sold 129 bales at 11 cents. There Is demand for the new crop, as well as spot hops. The F. S. Johnson Com pany has closed a contract with John Heis lir, of Gales Creek, for 40,000 pounds a year for three years. The demand for contracts In California is also good. Sacramento dealers have large orders at 10 H cents for one to three years, nut are unable to fill them. Fraser. of Butte County, sold 20O bales of It) 14s to Flint at 10 cents. The Casselman lot of 73 bales of 1913s was bought by Wolf A Netter at 6 cents. WOOL IS BOl'GHT BY GERMANY Three MilUonr Pounds Said tn Be Booked for Early Shipment. The landing of the steamer Carolyn with Its wool cargo at Bremen has lent encour agement to other exporters and about 1.000. pounds, all domestic grades, are said by the New York Commercial to be booked for early shipment. This wool was -bought for German account seral weeks ago and is reported to have been repacked in new tas a uh such compactness and careful ness as to add materially to the weight of each bag. England haa been Jn a number of "cor ners" in connections; with the wool situation since the first embargo was placed. Now it appears as though she were in a new one. By declaring wool contraband or blockading the German porta effectually she will pre vent her enemy from getting supplies wanted says the New York paper. Thus she would fulfill the ostensible purpose of all the em bargoes. But she would then be in a posi tion where it would be necessary to show whether any ulterior purpose haa been in mind, as suggested off and on by members of the wool trade. Should the embargo be left in force under the circumstances this country would have reason to feel that Ger many was not the only object against which it was meant to militate. Vegetables In From South. Among the receipts of green produce yes terday were a car of celery and a mixed car of cabbage and cauliflower. Arrivals otherwise were light, but the street had a sufficient supply. Local hot house lettuce is coming in and la -offering at 75 .cents a box, but not much of it is needed, as head lettuce now takes its place. There was a steady demand for oranges at firm prices and cheap apples moved well. A shipment of Hawaiian pineapples was re ceived and quoted unchanged at 7 cents. Egg Market Is Weak. c . A KfbtfSi cents case count and 32 cents candled. Supplies did not clean up. The demand for poultry was slow and chicken prices were weak and unchanged. Ducks and geese sold fairly well. There was a good demand for dressed meats. No changes were reported In dairy produce lines. Bank Clearances.

NEW HAVEN WEAK FEATURE Canadian Paciric Affected by De cember , Report Further Cash Gains by New York Banks . ' Are Expected, v NEW YORK. Jan. 29. United States Steel was again the pivot around which the stock market revolved today. The common stock was very extensively traded in, mostly at 40, its new minimum, a few thousand shares being; sold at a fraction above that price. Llauidation in that issue was on so larg a scale as to represent 40 per cent of the first hours' entire business. The preferred stock also yielded part of its recent recovery. New Haven was another weak issue, sell ing off 41 points to 49, Its minimum, and incidentally theMowest price in the history of the company. The decline coincided with rumors that the company s application to issue preferred stock had been denied by the Massachusetts authorities. Canadian Pacific was heaviest of all the high priced issues, losing over 5 points "on persistent selling, much of which was ascribed to European sources. The com pany's statement of earnings for December, indicating a net loss of over I2,S1X),0U. was in itself regarded as sufficient cause for dis couragement on the part of the holders of the stock. Declines to lowest prices all around occurred in the final hour, renewed liauidation in Readinir. Union Pacific ana other speculative favorites producing a weak close. . In addition to tha foreiitn offerings or Canadian Pacific sales for European in terests were probably the largest .of any recent day. Abrogation of the rules pro hibiting sales, except for cash, has resulted in a heavy movement of our securities irom abroad. This Is especially applicable to -bonds of a speculative character. Local banks are expected to make further cash gains on the movement from the in terior, but supplies of cash at all reserve centers are now so abundant as to make quoted rates virtually negligible. Bank clearings showed a decrease irom tne pre vious week, the loss being greater In the Interior than at New York and New Eng land points London reported an expansion of business, that market being assisted by the renewal of .our cash restrictions. The London ex change continued, however, to ignore the successive price reductions In Steel here. Bonds as a whole were arrectea Dy xne weakness of the stock list.

IMPROVEMENT IN TRADE IS STEADY Evidences of Spring Buying Continue to Multiply. . NEW YORK, Jan. 29. Bradstreet's will sav tomorrow : The pendulum of trade continues to swing in the direction of Improvement. Starting at a very slow pace three weeks ago, it is now movinar at a more satisiactory rate. though even yet the movement Is but con servatively Bteady. Almost everywhere the disposition is to iook on tne Drignt nut oi things. Evidence of Spring buying, espec ially of textiles, continues to multiply, inc labor situation, while far from normal. Is such that idleness is decreasing. Winter weather over a wide area has helped re duce stocks of heavy goods. Money is cheaper, commodity prices are higher, funds are plentiful in the cereal growing regions. Winter wheat is In good shape, copper is higher and steel mill operations are being increased. Bank clearings for the week were $2.978; 817.000, a decrease of 21.3 per cent from last year. Wheat exports aggregated 8,619,869 bush els, against 8,717,678 bushels a year ago. Failures in the United States were 552, compared with 453 in 1914; in Canada, 54. compared with 61 in 1914. SAX FRANCISCO PRODUCE MARKET Prices Current in Bay City on Fruits, Vege tables, Etc.

WHEAT PRICE SAGS Peace Rumors Have Unsettling Effect at Chicago. SHARP LOSSES AT CLOSE Traders Regard Reaction as Natural Sequence to Recent Extraord inary Advances lx)ngs Sell for Profits. CHICAGO, Jan. 29. Rumors of peace moves had an unsettling effect today oa the wheat market. As a result there was a nervous close at 1 cents to IX cents un der last night. Other leading staples, too, showed a loss, corn l cent to 1 hi cen"; oats cent and provisions 10 cents to cents. Strained tension In the wheat trade, owing to the absence of late of any Important reaction from the extraordinary advance In prices, caused the market today to be more than usually sensitive to anything resem bling news favorable to the bear side. De spite higher quotations at Liverpool and Paris, a good deal of selling pressure to day was put on the market. Many traders took the view that the recent steep advance had made something of a reaction a natural thing to look for and that the new up turns in Europe had merely reflected the course of prices in America, Buyers here, however, quickly took advantage of a break and there was soon a rally. After opening unchanged to a higher and then falling to more than a cent under last night, the market steadied with losses fully recovered. Sags followed, due to peace talk and proiit taklng by longs. Corn strength dwindled rapidly when the peace gossip attained headway. Indeed, through the day corn kept tagging after wheat. Immense export sales of oats at the sea board, said to amount to 1,500,000 bushels, and an urgent cash demand here lifted oats well above 60 cents a bushel. May. delivery. The gains more than disappeared, however, after other cereals turned down grade. Sharply higher prices for hogs made pro visions at first range higher. Active selling by packers, thougn, and the late weakness of grain formed a big handicap in the end. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. Low. Close.
