TnE -MORNING OREGONIAN SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1915 . ' i. WHEAT PRICES DOWN Shipping Situation Respon sible for Weakness Here. TONNAGE NOT TO BE HAD Europe Still Demands Grain but Xorthwstern Surplus Cannot Be Moved Dardanelles 3TewB Irnored at Liverpool. Th local wheat market continued on the down i-rade yesterday. Salea at the Mer chanta Exchanga were at decllnea of 4 to 7 cents, aa compared with Thursday' price. The Md price on the other dellverlea were reduced I u I cents under the previous I day's fls-urs. Sixty-five thousand bushels were sold on-the exchange, as follows: Bushels. . - jn.ooo May bluestem 1 i 10.000 April club J-J' s.OOD March Russian J-;J 8.000 May Russian ,,;. t 000 May Russian SOOO April fife ",, s.flOO May bluestem Tona -- so 100 prompt oats 100 April oats '" On February . when the highest prices ef the year were current. May bluestem sold locally at 1.S4. Testerday transactions in this delivery, therefore, represent de rllnea of 21 to I-H cents in three weeks time. All kinds of wheat shared equally in the weakness. May delivery of forty-fold and red Russian figured for the first time In the market, two lots of the latter being Although buyers scaled down their bid prices materially sellers did not make corre sponding concessions, the spread between bid snd asked prices being wider than usual. Offerings were fairly free, but there was no great rush to unload. A good deal ef speculative wheat has already been worked off. and stocks are in better hands now than at any time since the decline set '"The Dardanelles news was the Incentive to selling In all American markets, but the real cause of the weakness hero Is the el . port situation. There is European demand for Oregon and Washington wheat, but ton nage is not available to move the grain. The steamers and ships In port and en route are believed to be ail provided for. but there Is still a surplus of wheat In the Vorthwest. -With no way In sight to get . this surplus abroad, it Is a weight on the market. Furthermore, there is reason to believe that local prices were run up too high when they were at the top notch. The Chicago market broke under the strain of the Dardanelles reporU, but rallied when it was learned that European buyers were in the market for 15.000.00 0 bushels. The foreign markets were not affected at all Prix-ate cable from Liverpool said that market was steady and unchanged, and the public cable quoted cash wheat unchanged to a penny higher. Conservative grain men in Portland believe it will be a long time yet Before Russian wheat can g past Constantinople, but as long aa the small speculators at Chicago and elsewhere are allowed to play the market prices are bound to be unsettled and In no way will reflect actual market conditions. Feed grains continued weak In the local market, except spot oats. Barley bids were lowered - to IS a ton. local receipts in cars were reported by the Merchants Exchange as follows: Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay Portland US?" jiiji aa as an sss Tacoma. Tors.

Higher prices are also asked by California butter shippers. The market for country creamery cubes and for country store butter la also tinner. ' Cubes are now. quoted at 80 cents. Watermelons aa Mill Material. A xew Mexico man has discovered a new use for the watermelon. Reports from that state Indicate that J. B. Page, of Demlng, has built a mill at Myndus, In the Mlmbres Valley of New Mexico, by which he will grind watermelons into pulp and convert the Juice Into vinegar. The first lot of melons were turned Into the grind In September. The mill Is supplied from 30O acres of mel ons. It Is 11S by 80 feet, with a boiler house SO by 20 feet, adjoining. The two boilers are 125 horsepower each, and the en gine 125. The mill employs 20" men and will manufacture 300.000 gallons of vinegar this season.

Buyers offered IS cents, but It Is not known that any of these offers were accepted. There was a good demand for poultry, especially hens, and salea were made at 33H 14 cents. Pork was steady and veal a trifle easier. Large Country Orders for Traduce. Fruit and vegetable trade was quiet, as usual the last or the month.

C TONE IS VARIABLE Prices Rise and Fall in Wall-Street Market. FOREIGN CONDITIONS CAUSE Undercurrent Is Firm at Close of Session Another Gold Importa tion From Canada Bond Di vision Strong Money Easier. NEW YORK, Feb. 26. Conflicting condi tions at home and abroad Imparted a varia ble tone to todays stock market, which opened at general advances over yesterday's close, soon made further gains and then fell back, displaying some firmness at the close. The grain markets were, a factor in this movement, another sharp break In options suggesting anxiety respecting the atatus ot our export situation. May wheat declined to S1.46V-.' representing a decline of points from a week ago. Another gold importation from Canada was the most direct development in foreign exchange, bills on London manifesting more steadiness, but remittances to the Conti nent, especially Germany, showing further depreciation. Foregn exchange was again feverish, dealers expressing the belief that its course pointed to a new and more acute phase of conditions in that country. Specific movements of stocks In the local market Included sudden weakness in Ntw York Centrai, with moderate strength in coalers. Pacifies, Canadian Pacific excepted. United States Steel, coppers and certain spe cialties. New Haven became active in the later operations at a price well above Its latest minimum. Rock Islands were heaviest of the list, carrying the collateral fours down. ' Financial operations of the week indi cated a very moderate cash gam by local banks. Time money relaxed from its re cent stiffening tendency, loans for three and four months being negotiated at 3 to 3 !4 percent. ' Firmness ruieo in tne oonn ' tr-tctions, Southern Pacific and Missouri Pa cific issues reflecting moderate Inquiry. To tal sales, par value, aggregated $1,850,000. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Clwtni!

There were 9700 bales offered at the London wool auction sales to day Vigorous Americsn buying caused good merinos to rise from 10 to 15 per cent over the previous auctions, long-haired greasy making occasionally 20 per cent advance.

The market was strong and excited throughout. Coffee Knlnrea, NEW YORK, Feb. 26. After opening 1 to " points lower, the market for coffee fu tures rallied slightly on some March cover Ine which probably reflected the prompt stopping of further March notices and re iterated reports that the coffee was to be shipped to Europe. There was no general or aggressive buying", however, and the mar ket eased 'off in the -later trading under scattering ' liquidation and local pressure, which mav have been piomoted by the con. tinned full primary receipts and further Inrsa arrivals here from Brazil.

V FISHERMEN STILL TO FISH Oregon City Men to Hurry XVork Be fore Gill I. aw Kffectlve. OREGON CITY,Or.. Feb. 26. (Spe cial.) In spite of the Gill law, which closes the Willamette . River from the suspension bridge to the falls to net fishing, the activities of the local fish ermen will not be materially ham pered this year. Because the bill did not contain an emergency clause, it will be effective 90 days after the adjournment of the Legislature, or about 20 days after the opening of the fishing season. May 1. The referendum may be invoked by the fishermen in an effort to delay the measure. A conference with dealers and packers will be held this week.

NET LOSS OVER 4 CENTS Rallies After Opening Decline Are Due to " Export Demand Cable Offer Received for 15,00-0,000 Bnshels for Early Shipment. CHICAGO. FebT" 28. Wheat prices col lapsed nearly S cents today under excited selling, every fort reported destroyed at the Dardanelles costing wheat owners at the rate of about 2 cents a bushel, as broadly this was the estimate temporarily put on the chances that 200,000,000 bushels of Rus sian wheat would soon have a free outlet. The market, however, made several Im portant rallies and at the finish was un settled, ' S cents to 4 cents under last night. Corn closed to tvl cent down and oats off j to S cent. Pro visions wound up at an advance of 29 cents to 10S12-', cents. Floods of selling orders overwhelmed the wheat pit as soon as' the opening gong struek. Steadying Influences did not make much of an Impression on wheat cntil the last hour. Thus the fact that an active demand for spot cash delivery was in evi dence began to tell. It was announced tnat 600.000 bushels had been disposed of at the seaboard to go to Kurope, and there were many bids here that could not be filled In the absence of rural offers. One Chicago house alone was said to have a cable calling for 15,000.000 buehels, chiefly No. 3 hard, to be shipped in 40 days. Com, dragged down by wheat, tumbled to within about 3 cents a bushel of the price a year ago when the war had not been thought of. Later In the day the corn mar ket became more robust, aided principally by Baltimore advicee of SOO.000 bushels of corn having been bought there for France. Oats at first were fully as weak as corn, but foreigners afterwards took 1.400. 000 bushels in the East and the market here grew relatively stronger in oats than in other grain. Provisions, especially pork, suffered a de cided setback because of grain weakness. Free buying on the part of shorts and packers, and to some extent for investors, was in the end a complete offset and more. Leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. High. t-ow. Close.
