They look for quiet trade for the. next two or three weeks. They are not anticipating any serious decline nor is there anything- in the situation at present to war rant belief in higher prices. With the re sumption of Fall buying by tanners, how ever, the market may take on a different aspect. Reviewing- the depression in the Eastern tilde markets, a trade report just received from Chicago say: "There Is an easier market prevailing on II -varieties of hides, with weakness becom ing quite apparent in domestic packer and rountry stock and a, generally slow demand for all descriptions of foreign and domestic kinds. "dales in the Chicago packer market have aeen few and far between and such lots of any size as have moved have been at con cessions from prices previously talked by holders. Quotations are not actually any lower, but the easiness of the market is demonstrated in the fact that packers are celling their hides at the same rates as were secured for June salting, after holding these for several weeks at advances of from He to lc on account of the improved quality and condition of July over June takeoff. "The principal happening of 1-ate tn packer hides occurred in the New Tork market. -where sales were made of spready native -steers aggregating 86 carloads and including salting ahead to next January. The prices realized on these sales were 25e for April, ?ks for May, 27c for June and December, and 27ic for July to November, inclusive ealtlng. "Country hides are easing down In price and dealers who awhile ago were securing up to 20c for monthly long-haired buffs and asking 21c for late salting lots are now sell lng buffs running half short hair at 39c, ani offering all short-hatred at as lo as 20c. "Some pales were made in Chicago to sole leather tanners of about 15,000 country hides at 19c for 4 5-lb. and up, buffs and heavy cows together running from 40 to 60 per cent short-haired, and at 10c for some 60-lb. and up heavy cows alone that were practi cally all long-haired. "The strongest feature of the entire mar ket is calfskins. The season is over for these and buyers are bidding high prices to secure such little lots ss are obtainable. 1.04 .03 i'3 .bo .So . 27.00 ..27.50 Grain, Flour, Feed, Etc Merchants' Exchange, noon session.

In commenting on the subject, a Bos ton authority says: "Among conservative wool Interests here the question has been raised whether th top. has not been reached in the matter of values. The strong upward tendency of . prices for some time has brought the mar ket to such a level that the movement of wool Is expected to show an effect therefrom before long. Yet no lack of strength is ap- Tiarent. the past week giving evidence of this circumstance in further advances. One thing which leads to the conclusion that the trend may be at its limit, however, is that yrices are so high as to make manufacturers backward about buying for future needs, The mark of 05 cents for Austrslian comb lng wools, which has been attained in sales .here, is one which takes away any Induce went to opcrat, according to authorities. "On the other hand, the next available source of wool Is the South American mar ket. The fact that all possible supplies from the West are in sight and that wools cannot be expected from outside markets other than South America leaves the buyers dependent upon what already is in sight and this circumstance makes for continued strength, if not greater. All staple wools in particular are strong, both foreign nd domestic, ths scarcity enhancing their value. The scarcity of such wools. In addition, is reacting favorably upon other grades. which manufacturers have turned because of the shortage of the former. The result is that ths whole movement of wool is de vloplng along generally satisfactory lines for the trade here." BIG BLOCK. OF OLD WHEAT IS SOLD Tt'exr Crop Bluestem Changes Hands at Good Advance. Five thousand bushels of September blue stem were sold at the Merchants' Exchange yesterday at $1.04 ft. This price U 24 cents over the best bid for new bluestem on the preceding day and represents a similar gain over the last previous sale, which was on July 22. lit da ' for other varieties of new wheat were raised 1 cent over Thursday's price. With the setback received by the Chicago market, the East was not so keen to buy Northwestern wheat yesterday. There has been no buying of consequence lately for any other account, aside from some mill purchases. A block of 65,000 bushels of Big Bend bluestem and some Turkey was sold at full .prices, but the disposition to sell in the country was not general. fradstreets estimates united States ax ports this week at 7,600,000 bushels of whest and 1,431,100 bushels of corn.

NEW YORK July 2S. Losses of the mid week were partly retrieved in the course of today's very ristless and insignificant trad ing, which offered a striking contrast to ths operations of a year ago, when "war brides" were soaring to dizzy heights and daily dealings were averaging a million shares. Rails once more proved an- exception to the general tendency, manifesting much of their recent lassitude, with further moderate selling of Canadian Pacific and New Haven. heading was more responsive to demand in the final hour, however, when ths leaders registered bet prices. United states Steel was disposed to shake off its recent heaviness, rising to 86. within the smal.est fraction of its top quotation on Wednesday, following the publication of the company's quarterly earnings, prominent war issues, equipments and independent in dustrials were 1 or 2 points- higher, but United States Industrial Alcohol evidenced its I'sual uncertainty, fluctuating within range of 86 points and closing at a net gain of a point. Mexicans were most active ana strong. following advices from Washington Indicat ing mor favorable conditions across tni border, and Tennessee Copper mas bin up more than 2 points against the bears. Ship ping issues were uncertain. Mercantile Ma rine keeping within narrow limits. Totai ssli-s amounted to 240.000 shares. Recovery of a half point in marks to 7" was ihe sol feature of the sTuperilcial mar ket for foreign- exchange, all -forms of re mittance to Europe being in very light de mand.

Despite the fact that wheat at cne time today touched the highest price this season, the market, except m me first hour, was on the downgrade. Bears made much of assertions by a prominent ea pirt that crop losses would perhsps not re duce the yield In the Dakota and Minnesota much under a seven-year a.verage. The close was weak, lc to lo net lower, with Sep tember $1.214 lMi and December $1.2dH. Corn finished lHc off to 4HC up, oats e down to Hc UP and provisions un- Fhimd ta 15c his; ner. ConMdersble Interest was taken by wheat traders in the circumstance that many esti mates of damsge In the Nqrthwest were found on comparisons with last year's ab normally large crop. The total yield of the Dakotas and Minnesota In 191 o was 2- oOO.OOO bushels, whersv a 10-year average for the three states is about l3i.ojo,v)uu bushls. Corn varaes awayed a good deal Xn sym pathy with wheat. Oats were relatively easy throughout ths gssslon. Higher quotations on hoga gave firmness to provisions. Leading futures ranged as, follows: WHEAT. Prunes will be a heavy crop. Apples fair crop Onions doing well. t-alera. Or. Fruit crops getting along nice ly during present weather. Prunes will be 75 per cent crop. Hay badly damaged by rain. Hops estimated o pr cent crop. Grain of all kinds In fine condition. Albany, Or. Wlnrfer wheat little below average.
