STOCKS ARE CLOSELY HELD - California Market Also Advances i Feist, Car Shortage Alone Check ing Rise Wheat Bayers Op j erating With Caution. Barley continues the strongest cereal In the Coast grain markets. At the Mer chants' Exchange $35 wal again bid for feed barley ror October delivery, -ivhile No vember barley was 50 cents higher, at $33.50. An. active Eastern demand -was responsible Tor the strength of the cereaL The bulk of the crop is in strong hands. In San Francisco, there vu a decided flurry in the barley market on account of the Eastern and European demand. Prices there, it is declared, -would be still higher but for the scarcity of cars to move the craln. as this prevents full expansion of the business. But for the car shortage, it is said the southern state -would be entirely cleaned up. . The oats market -was quiet with prices holding around 28 here. The cheapness of millfeed is checking the consumption of 1 cats at this time. There is a .good demand from the country for bran and shorts, and the libera! shipments from this city are pro vlding cars for the movement of oats and other cereals to market. Wheat was inactive throughout the j country. The undertone of the market -was easier, and while the traders -were not bearish, they were Inclined to be nervous , because of the high level at which the mar ket is now resting. The car situation is another reason lor caution. At the Mer chants' Exchange, B0OO bushels of October fortyfold were sold at $1.30. the same price offered on Monday. Other bids ranged from ' cent higher to 1 cent lower than the day before. EBradstreet'a estimates the world's wheat visible increase this week at 1.7OO.00O bush els, the corn increase at 700.000 bushels and the .s.S izsreuo at 1,046.000 bushels. Commenting on the course of the Chi cago wheat market, an Eastern authority writes: "Strong efforts have been made in the last three or four days to depress prices, but they have been futile. All sorts of arguments, some genuine, many ground less have been advanced why values Ehould recede, but prices remain firm as a rock. After all that may be said about Husslan wheat becoming available, the broad fact remains that for months to come North America alone can supply the immediate .needs of Europe. Momentary recessions will occur, but there Is nothing in sight that can cause alarm to holders." Hroomhall says, in his international wheat . review : "The market here has been impressed dur ing the past week by the allies' victories in the Balkan region, notwithstanding the setback at Dobrudja, and buyers have been holding off from purchasing at these high prices, when the lBrgr"Prusslan surplus vis overhanging the market. "The smallness of Canadian yield, as in dicated by official report, was a surprise here, but It is still believed that the Do minion may export 112,000,000 bushels, United States 160,000.000, Australia new and old surplus 160,000.000, India 4S.000.000, Ar gentina 120.000,000 and others 16,000,000, which indicates a total for export of- G16.000, 00O bushels, not counting Russia, and this means that importers' supplies will depend greatly upon effective organization of Aus tralian transportation, unless Black Sea shipments become possible. "Continental Importers appear at present. well supplied and certainly obtaining more from southern hemisphere and India and Archangel than last year; however, it is expected that the demand will continue and become broader later on and expect the present laxity of United Kingdom buyers to pass away, unless the prospects for Black Sea shipments become brighter. Terminal receipts, in cars, were reported by the Merchants' Exchange as follows: Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay roniana, .lues. -in L Year ago 70 17 1 Reason to date. ir,7:l 4( ,Vi(J . , ir, B35 371 10 41 S 622 IS 2U ltr ago 32i7 47 20S Tacoma, Mon. . lear ago :.i Reason to date.l7S3 Tear ago 2330 Seattle.

It says: "The salmon game for 1016 was certainly a swift one. As already advised. Inside of three days after opening prices were named, the entire Alaska red pack was placed. Within a week everything else in the salmon line, except pinks and chums, were disposed of. The writer has been In the salmon hui. ness for over 20 years, and never in his ex perience has he seen such a whirl as there lias been this year. 'Instead of advancing prices we are prac tleally sold out and must withdraw from the market entirely, until we can ascertain Jus where we stand. From present appearances it looks as though we will have nothing for sale with the exception of a few pinks and chums, a few fancy Chinooks and a limited quantity of Oregon medium red. "Just stop and think of it. Here we are In the first half of September, when we should have teas of thousands of cases of everything to offer and are practically with onawn irom tne market. Put this up to your buyers and ask them if they have ever seen such a condition of affairs existing be lore. j. en your ueaiers also that we are sure there is not one buyer in ten who has bought sufficient to last him until the 1017 pack is ready." OUTSIDE BUTTER ORDERS ARE FILLED Market Is Steady, With Shipping Demand batlsflea for Present. The outside demand for butter has been satisfied for the time being, and the market is holding steady. The several cars of storage butter recently bought here, it is understood, will be shipped to the Eastern seaboard and there transhipped to London. At the Produce Exchange, storage extras were offered at 30 cents and prime firsts at the same price, with no bids. Dairy butter was offered at 23 cents and 24 cents was bid. For current receipt eggs ZiV, cents was bid and 36 cents asked. No bids were received for cheese. Tilla mook triplets were offered at 13 ' cents. Oregon Young Americas at IS cents. East ern cream brick at 23 cents. Oregon cream brick at 20 cents, and block Swiss at 27 Mi cents. There was a fair supply of poultry on the street and prices were steady. Dressed meats were scarce and firm. ITN'AL JTJTE FORECAST 8,300,000 BALES Crop of India Is 12 Per Cent Larger Than That of Last lear. The Indian Jute crop for the 1018-1317 season will be 8,300,000 bales, according to the figures announced by the British-Indian authorities. This is about 12 per cent larger than- the 191S-1916 crop., which wae 7, 423,733 bales. The first forecast, which was made last July, placed the probable yield at 8.150.00O bales. While the outturn will in all likelihood be In excess of the estimates made a coup of I months ago, the size of the crop is a. dls- ppointment because last seasons yield the smallest in years and the carry over is considered negligible. As the -world's consumption of Jute is figured to be in excess of the quantity that Is in sight, the chances of Jute becoming cheaper are con sidered very remote by leading trade author ities. Peach Receipts Are Moderate. There was a fair trade in the fruit line. with no new feature to the market. Peach receipts were moderate and prices held at 60070 cents for the .best Elbertas and 75 cents for large clings. California grapes were steady and local Concords sold well at 20 cents a basket. Cantaloupes are well cleaned up. Lull In Hop Trading. There were no new developments In the hop market yesterday. The lack of advices from California Indicated a pause In the trading there. In the Yakima section 12 and 13 cents was still being offered, with no sellers. A few small lots were bought In Western Washington at 10 M cents. Bank Clearings.

SUGARS MAKE NEW RECORD Investment Issues Strong on Bril liant Statements of Railway Earn ingsBroad Inquiry for High-Grade Bonds. NEW YORK, Sept. 26. Trading in stocks today proceeded In a more orderly ana rational manner. the shsrn reversal of yes terday's final hour evidently having a sober ing effect upon the more venturesome spec ulative element. Dealuisis were again very large and broad, amounting to 1,565.000 shares, making the 17th successive session on which sales have reached or far ex ceeded the million mark. The strength of Investment Issues prob ably resulted from some brilliant statements of railway earnings issued In the course of the day. These included the annual report of the Southern Pacific Company, showing a gain in net income of more than 50 per cent and August returns of the Atchison road, which disclosed a net increase of s,i.u:12.0oa. United States Steel, which continued to lead the list, was watched with special in terest by reason of its abrupt decline from yesterday's record of 120 to below 115. On very large transactions Steel rose 1H point to 116'-. declined to 113 and Closed un changed at 115. Sugars were among the foremost Issues, with new records for Cubans. American. A'merican Beet and Cuba Cane at advances of 2 to 4 points. Shipping stocks, which seem to bear some relation to sugar issues, regained some of their former prominence and strength, and oils were strong, Texas Company gaining almost 8 points on the proposed 25 per cent capital increase. Coppers, equipments and motors, Stuts proving the exception In the last named group, were firm to strong, and utilities. particularly the gas stocks, were in better demand. Bonds were strong, with a broad Inquiry for high-grade Issues. Total sales, par value, $5,585,000. United States bends were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing sales. iign.

Notwithstanding that wheat developed fresh strength during the first half of the session, the market later was unable to re sist the weight of offerings which were precipitated by assertions that the world supply wss the largest ever known at this season. The available stock total had in creased 1.723.00O bushels, as compared with last week and was nearly 8D.0O0.0OO bush els more than was the case a year ago.
