Tn the coming season there will have to
be a change in the manner of transacting
wh-oat business with the East, dealers here
av. If the exportable surplus goes across
tha continent, as seems likely, for it is
believed that no other channel will bo open,
the nrocedura will have to be on a dif
ferent plan from that followed in the'paat
season.
Dealers experiences la handling Eastern
business have been by no means satisfactory
and their troubles have been further ag
gravated by the difficulty in getting grain
through. In some Instances they have had
to wait three or four months for their re
turns. Under these conditions they are not
disposed to accept new business. Ordinary
margins do not cover the risk, and in this
respect,, at least, there will have to be -a
change in the coming season. As things are
now a cent or two advance or decline at
-Chicago means nothing here.
With Coast demand at a low ebb, the only
outlet for Pacific Northwestern wheat is
in the East, but for the reasons given
above the local dealers are not going after
the business. At the Merchants Exchange
eUl wheat bids were unchanged yesterday
notwithstanding Chicago options were lc
to 2c higher.
The oats market was firmer and otters
were raised 25 cents. There is practically
no selling by farmers. Barley is stronger
in sympathy with the advances in Cali
atarnla. where the market has been strength
enod by tho lack of rain.
According to a Chicago report Snow esti
mates the Winter wheat crop at 492.000.000
bushels. Broomhall's summary of foreign
conditions follows:
United Kingdom Weather fairly season
able and seeding is progressing moderately.
Acreage will be short.
France Crop advices are favorable, as a
whole, on the smaller acreage planted. Re
cent official estimates of good promise are
taken with reserve. Our agent's reports are
not favorable either as to growing conditions
or aereatca. as labor has been very scarce
and weather generally unfavorable.
Germany All advices received show
weather and crops favorable. Supplies are
reported as adequate, as a result of ship
ments from Balkan States and rigid econ
omy is practiced.
Russia Some complaints continue to come
to hand regarding lateness of crops. Acre
age is reduced materially. Supplies are
scanty and it is believed that growers are
holding large reserves.
Balkan Slates Weather Springlike and
crop outlook favorable.
- Australia Outlook unchanged and on the
whole not favorable. South Australia and
West Australia still drouthy.
Italy Cereal and forage crops promise
wetl. Weather generally favorable.
India Weather favorable and harvesting
is about finished. Offers of wheat remain
light.
Terminal receipts in cars were reported

Greater Fart of Spring Seeding; In Caldwell
Section 1nislied.
Th. monthly bulletin of the Caldwell
Idaho) Commercial Sank says of crop and
market conditions in that section:
Th. greater part of the Spring seeding
cf grain Is now in and some of the earlier
sowing is up. The Fall-sawn grain is look
ing fine, but a rain at this time would be
of much benefit. There has been but little
rainfall during the past 30 days, and the
meadows are being irrigated. There was
Quite a heavy frost on April IS, but the dam
age to fruit was very light.
Wheat has shown a slight advance during
the past 3l days, but the market is un
steady. There is still considerable wheat in
hands of the farmers. The Oaldwell Milling
& Elevator Company reports paying $1.40
cwt. for wheat, f 1.15 cwt. for oats and $1.25
cwt. for barley.
There is a very active demand for hay,
and $9 per ton is being paid In the stack
and $12 per ton baled f. o. b. cars here.
Thi surplus hay will all be cleaned up before
the new crop.
Practically all of the fat cattle have been
marketed and at good prices. The demand
for good dairy and range cows is greater
than the supply, and high prices are being
paid for choice corcvs.
A number of sheep sales have been re
ported. Some sales call for immediate de
livery and some for June delivery. "We are
informed the price paid for mixed range
' ewes of from 2 to 3 years old and upwards is
$-1.2o per head. The lamb contracts for
July delivery are reported at (5 per head.
Several range growers report contracting
their wool, and the price received, is from
23 to 25 cents per pound. Range condi
tlons and high prices are causing many to
sell out .their entire holdings.
Dealers here are paying $S cwt. for fat
hogs. The supply, however, is getting short.
Most all of the larmers are planning on
raisin e large supply for Fall feeders, and
we predict that there will be more hogs
raised this year than for any previous year.
The Caldwell Horse & Mule Company re
ports business good in that line, and expects
a big sale In May. This sale will begin May
2 and continue as long as necessary. It is
expected that more tr-an 1K10 head of horses
ill be offered for sale, and a number of
buyrrs have signified their intention of
being present.
There is still a strone demand for hens,
but other lines are dull. Today's quota
tions on hens, live weight, is 11 tents per
pound: turkeys, 13 cents, and to 8 cents
for ducks and geese.
Egg receipts have been bavy and con
tinu.; good. Two car lots were shipped out
in the past two we-ks. besides heavy local
shipments. Today's cash quotation is 17 H
c nts per doren.
Cream receipts are cn the increase, and
price remained steady during the last SO
days. Today's price is 27 cents for butter
fat and 20 cents for sweet cream.

NEW YORK. May 1. Regardless of
numerous week-end developments of an ad'
verse character, chiefly the increasing ex.
panslon of labor disturbances, and the Brit
Ish defeat in the East, today's market con
tlnued its upward march. To be sure, an .1
together disproportionate amount of the
tivity and strength was shown by a few
special Issues. Mercantile Marines again be
lng the dominant feature at new high recr
ords.
Combined dealing, in Marine preferred and
common amounted to 230.000 shares, or
about one-quarter of, the whole. Aside from
the fixed belier that the company's re
organization plan la soon to be issued and
that It is likely to be acceptable to all In
terests, there was no news to account for
the continued prominence of these share.
Marine preferred made an extreme gain of
7 point, at 98 and the common 4 Vi at
29H. Other shipping shares were strong.
Paclflo Mall gaining 34 and United Fruit
2 points.
Recognized war shares regained some of
the recent prominence. Crucible Steel. Bald
win and American Locomotive, American
Car. rubbers and metals and minor equip
ment, and Industrials rising 1 to 4 points
Mexicans were visibly Improved by re
port, of a reassuring nature regarding the
course of negotiations with the de facto gov
ernment. Mexican Petroleum rose 3 4 and
American Smelting, maximum gain was 2 4.
Ralls were .gain a negligible factor un
til the final hour, when Reading led . gen
eral rise In that group, the movement de
riving it. Impetus from reports of a settle
ment of the anthracite coal controversy.
March statements of leading railway sys
tems also were of material assistance.
Total sale, of stocks amounted to 920,00
hares.
The laclc of news regarding the German
situation was considered a favorable augury
and the collapse of the Irish rebellion was
reflected in the better tone of international
markets.
Bonds were steady, but otherwise feature
less. Total sales, par value, $2,990,000.
Panama coupon 3s were 1H lower on call.
