THE MORXLMJ OltEGONIAX. SATURDAY, JiAV 2, 1D15. WINTER RATES HIGH r- men rt..n leefj rieiyuib win bui uuwu Farmers' Price of Wheat. LONG CHANCES ARE TAKEN J.cul Grain Market Is Quiet, .but With Slrons Undercurrent New Zealand's Official Crop Esti mate TTndcr Iiast Year's. Interest In the grain trade ha shifted mainly to tho new crop, with the Increased B.rtivity In the taking of Fall and Winter tonnape. Tliere Is much speculation as to tho effect the excessive freight rates will liava .-mi wheat prices paid to producers, rtecember ships have been fixed at 75s. which means a still higher rate for October loading, and this can only result In scaling down of farmers' prices, unless the wheat markets abroad go to a level surpassing the abnormal prices of today. Such a course In the first half of the new cereal year Is not expected unless the transportation sltua. tinn becomes still more acute. Kxportcrs who are willing to pay these steep rates for Winter ships are taking a very lonr chance, in the opinion of most traders, and few of them evidently care to speculate, to that extent, on the possibility of tho war lasting throughout thev year. However. If it does continue through the lomlng Winter, these 7.1s ships may look t heap. America will have an immense sur plus of wheat to sell to Europe, and It is Itolng to bo a difficult problem to move it wlille the war keeps the mercantile tonnage tlown to the minimum. The local market was quiet yesterday, but with a very firm undertone. Five thousand bushels of June bluestem were sold on the board at fl.ll'.i. Other bids ranged from 1 cent lower to B cents higher than those of the day before. There was not much de rnand for oats or barley. The wheat crop of New Zealand is offi cially estimated at 4,000,000 bushels, against fi.UOu.OOO bushels last year; the oats crop at lO.l'nO.OOO bushels, against 14,700,000 bushels last year. Bradstreets estimates domestic clearances this week at 7,300.000 bushels of wheat and J.'JOO.OOO bushels of corn. Wheat shipments from Argentina for the week are estimated at 4,712.000 bushels, as compared with Xli-S.OOO bushels last week nd 1.176,000 bushels last year. India's rhlpmcnts this week are figured at 1. 500.000 bushels of wheat. Terminal receipts in ears, were reported y the Merchants Exchange as follows: Wheat. Barley. Flour. Oats. Hay. Portland.

The capital of the company is fl.OO0.000 (4, 808,500). The statement Is made in explanation of the largo profits tor the Cardiff concern that they obtained large stocks toward the be ginning of the war and Bold them "at the world price! which were fixed in Chicago and New York, and over which, therefore, they had no control." The London Flour Millers' Association on April "d advanced the price of household flour from C2s ()13.65) to 53s ($12.00) per USD pounds. Imports of flour Into the United Kingdom during tho first three months of 1015, com pared with tho similar periods of 1014 and 191", were.

Cables received In the burlap trado re port heavy advances In the Calcutta market on both burlaps and raw material. The advance Is said to have been due to large orders placed by the British government for burlap, to be used in making sand bags for the allies, and the belief that further purchases are due in the immediate future. from the same quarter. Orders placed by the British government with Dundee burlap manufacturers were reported some time ago to have swamped the mills on work for the entire Summer months, without satis- fvlnir the demand. It is evident now that t-he government has turned to Calcutta manufacturers for sup plies, and that further advances on burlaps slto due in the immediate future.

MARKET IS MORE ACTIVE lrclgn. Exchange Rates Again De clineWarring Xations May Have to Declare Double Monetary Stan da rd --Bonds Are Heavy. NEW TORK, May 21. Developments in the foreign exenange markets today were regarded as of more importance than the day's rather Inconclusive session on the Stock Exchange. Demand sterling fell to 4.7S, the lowest rate since the panic of 1S73: francs declined to the lowest quota tion within the memory of exchange dealers, and Italian remittances were virtually un salable. Later in the day London bills re covered a trifle. In the opinion of experts, unless the strain soon Is relaxed, foreign financial conditions will reach the point where most, if not all, the nations now at war may have to declare a double monetary standard gold and pa per It Is generally understood that Eng land is financing the . Immediate needs of France and Russia, and Italy s projection into the conflict is calculated to add to Great Britain's financial burdens. Trading in stocks was almost twice as large as In the early days of the week, but a very large percentage of the turnover was in one of the low-priced war specialties Crucible steel which rose 4 points to its highest price. Bethlehem Steel and West Inghouse gained as much or more. United States Steel more than held its recent recovery, despite denials of "war con tract" rumors. Coppers and a score of un classified stocks rose 1 to 3 points. Total sales of stocks amounted to 390,000 shares. Bank returns indicating another cash gain were a factor in local money markets, call loans declining to 1 per cent, the lowest quotation In two years. Bonds were heavy in the main. Total sales, par value, were $2,450,000. United States coupon and registered 3s advanced per cent on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. Mlgh. Low. Old. Alaska Gold....

Ilish Cereal Prices Innurc Prosperity in Farming Communities) Railway Tratfie lncrealns NKW TORK. May 21. Bradstreets to morrow will say: While trade and Industrial conditions con tinue to move along generally favorable lines, the week's developments disclose some ir regularity. On the one hand, wet or cool weather has checked distributive trade, and especially retail business, and at the same time, unsettled international political mat ters tend to cause wholesale buyers in some lines to go slow, while the -same factor holds up certain speculative projects. But. on the other hand, industry IS more active, employment is increasing and war orders continue to cause extraordinary speed at a number of centers. Jobbing trade in essential staples appears to be on a par with, if not above, lajt year's. Mall order houses are doing well. High prices for cereals Insure prosperity ror farming com munities, and crop conditions, notwithstand ing exaggerated reports of Insect damage to Winter wheat, are unusually good. Railway traffic increasing, buying of steel by the railroads is larger, and bank clearings, though lighter than Inst week, display gains over one or two years ago. Bank Clearings for the week were $.1.2)9. 933,000. IMPROVEMENT IN WOOL MARKET Outlook Is Better In rast and in Western Orowina- Sections. BOSTON. May 21.

A special meeting of the Van couver Commercial Club was held yes terday to discuss procedure to recover for the city the waterfront now leased to the railroad companies. At the meeting yesterday It was de cided that steps shall be taken to re train aa much of the public levee as possible to be used for public water terminal purposes; to open as many streets as possible to the river: that the Port of Vancouver Commission shall make a comprehensive survey, and. to ascertain the rigrhts of the dis trict iu the Port of Vancouver; that the port and industrial committees co operate with official bodies as far as possible in regaining the city's water front. Ilpds Opposed to White Atigjers. KLAMATH FALIf, Or., May 21.- ISpecial.) Superintendent William B. Freer, of the Klamath Indian Reser vation, stated yesterday that the sen timent of the tribal council which was in session a portion of last week was aprainst the granting of the fishing: privilege in- streams on the reserva tion to whites not residing on the res ervation. However, he says, "my belief is, after talking with a hurhber of the cotincilmen, that at the next meeting of the council a recommendation will be made looking to an approved ar rangement whereby white persons of standing and character may be al lowed to fish within designated areas under reasonable restrictions.". WHEAT RISE RAPID Bullish Crop Reports Lift Prices at Chicago. CONDITIONS NOT SO GOOD Yield in Kansas and Oklalionia Ksti mated at 64,000,000 liulicls Under I,ast Year's Illinois and Indiana Affected. CHICAGO. May 21. Bullish crop reports. Including an estimate that the yield in Kan sas and Oliahoma would be 64.O0o.00i) bush els less tlfan was harvested last year, car ried wheat prices today sharply higher. The close was atrong at l7c to 3 44 c net advance. Corn values gained tj Wc to lc. and oats He to ic. In provisions, the outcome varied from 10c decline to a rise of 5c. The upturn in wheat came from advices sent by a leading Chicago expert touring Southern Illinois and Indiana, who asserted that a large acreage would prove worthless and that in parts the damage was greater than it heretofore seemed to be. Later, the slashing of Kansas and Oklahoma estimates led to even heavier buying and to a fresh bulge in prices. Improvement in cash de mand northwest and at the seaboard formed about the only influence aside from crop damage that seemed to call for notice. Advance prices for corn resulted In the main from the action of wheat. Weather conditions were against the bears. Oats reflected the strength of other ce reals. General offerings by holders made provision values uneven. Leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT. Open. $L54 1.26 li High. $1.55 1.28 CORN'.
