FLOUR GOES SOUTH
Orders Are Placed With Mills
in Interim.
WHEAT MARKET STRONGER
Bids nt Iiocal Exchange Are, AiIt
vanced 1 to 3 1-2 Cents Oats
Sales Iosted at Higher Prices.
California Grain. Strong.
TCheat bids -were raised 1 to 314 cents at
the - Merchants' Exchange yesterday, and
July bluestem again stood at the dollar
nark. The margin between buyers" and
sellers' - views was lessened, as the asked
prices for August club, fife and bluestem
were reduced, but this did not result In
business.
The market Is on a better footing, with a
fair increase in the demand. For several
days past interior mills have been buyers In
a limited way. A number of flour orders
from the Southern States have been placed
In the Northwest, and as the mills were
carrying light stocks of wheat, they entered
. the open market to replenish. The Puget
Sound mills have since come into the mar
ket for wheat and are offering somewhat
higher prices than are current here. It is
denied that the sound mills are buying
wheat for account of Oriental or other cx-
' port flour orders. It Is known the tide
water mills have been offered southern
flour business, but it is said they cannot
. compete against the country mills for the
trade.' The amount of southern business
placed to date Is understood to have reached
respectable proportions. Its appearance at
this time is ascribed to the flurry in the
Middle Western markets, occasioned by the
black rust scare.
Two hundred tons of July oats were
sold at the Exchange at 27 and 200 tons
of August oats brought These prices
were 50 cents over the bids of the pre
ceding day. Barley bids were raised .5
cents to $1 a ton. Barley and oats ware
considerably firmer at San Francisco. The
southern market for oats has been strength
ened by the stoppage of shipments from this
' section by the longshoremen- strike.
Whole and cracked corn prices have been
advanced a ton in response to higher
corn prices East. Corn stocks here are very
! small. Corn meal Quotations were raised
10?rl3 cents a tale.
Argentine shipments this week are esti-
" mated at 1,600,000 bushels of wheat and
' 850.000 bushels of corn.
Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported
by the Merchants' Exchange as follows:

NEW BEET SIGAR IS ON StARKKT
I'irst Car Reaches Portland From Vlsalia
- Jtefinery.
The sugar market is firming up in the
"F.ast,- raws particularly showing strength.
Tho refined market lias not been advanced,
but the few Tefiners that were under the
market have come up to the general level.
The new beet sugar season opened yester
day with tho arrival here of the first car of
.-new-crop beet from the Visalia, Cal., rc
' finery. Sampling of the shipment indicated
its excellent quality. With the steady lm
- provement that is being made in the manu
facture of beet sugar, the question Is being
asked in the trade why the 20-ccnt differ
ential between the prices of cane and beet
. sugar should bo maintained in favor of the
former sort. Down In Southern California
they have already eliminated the dlfferen
, tlal, and it is only a question of time be
, fore the tamo action is taken here. Oregon
is now ono of tho sugar beet-growing states
and friends of the industry would like to see
the domestic article given a fair show.
LEMONS ARE IT 50 CENTS PER BOX
California Market Higher, Owing to Strong
Demand From East.
Lemon prices were advanced 50 cents a
box yesterday In response to three advances
that occurred at shipping points the day be
fore. The strength of the California mar.
' ket is duo to tho heavy Eastern demand
brought on by hot weather.- A further rise
in lemon prices here la anticipated. Oranges
for the same reason were advanced 25 cents
a box.
Oregon peaches were more plentiful with
arrivals from The Dalles, Rufus and Gervals.
They offered at 03 cents to $1 a box.
Berries wcio in fair supply and steady.

NEW YORK. July 13. Selling of a
broader and more promiscuous character
tnan that or any recent period broke out
afresh today, depressing prices of erstwhile
lavorites to lowest prices of the year, and
for a time causing unsettlement in stand
ard shares. The decline gathered much of
its momentum from the short Interest, that
faction extending its operations into new
fields, Incidentally adding to the Impairment
of stocks which already had suffered se
vere attrition.
Trading was on a large scale and wholly
at the expense of values, except in the
last hour, when short covering brought
about a partial readjustment, and moderate
recoveries from lowest levels.
The motor group was the chief center
of dlsturoance, those, issues recording ex

About 91.SO, ) Clerk.
Hates for one-way .passenger traffic
across the continent will be raised
about September 1. All lines operating
out of the Northwest will enforce the
new rate, riound-trtp tickets will not
be affected.
Ji. K. Ueigert, passenger rate clerk
for the O.-W. It. & N. Company, re
turned yesterday from SC. Paul, where
he attended a conference with rate
clerks of other Northwestern lines con
tinuing over a period of nearly four
months.
Mr. - Deigert reports that J the new
rates havo been determined and that
tariffs will be published and filed witn
the Interstate Commerce Commission
within a few days.
These new rates will bo charged
under authority granted the carriers
recently by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Under this decision tho
Commission grants the railroads the
privilege of -ignoring the local rate
regulations prevailing in tho several
states in 'fixing rates for interstate
business.
Many of the Middle Western states
have 2-cent fare laws. Under existing
rate schedules the carriers collect no
more than 2 cents per mile .for the haul
across those states.
The new rates, however, will provide
for slightly higher rates in some of
thoso states, varying from 2. it to 2.6
cents per mile, according to physical
conditions and other factors.
The precise amount of the increases
has not been figured out, but it is esti
mated that the advance in the rate be
tween Portland and Chicago, for in
stance, will be about $1.50. with a pro
portionate advance oa other trips.
