THE 3IORXIXG OEEGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY. DECE3IBER 20, 1916. 21 WHEAT TRADE WAITS Market Is Too Uncertain for Local Dealers. TONE HERE TIS EASIER Operators Are Disposed to Be Cau tious in View of "Wild Fluctua ' tions in Eastern Markets. Oats Bids Raised. real wheat dealers -were entirely at ea yesterday. The violent fluctuation at -Chicago, reflecting the uncertainty as to what Lloyd George had or would say of Ger many's peace terms, and the collapse at the close, after the market had reached laet week's high-level, made the traders think that caution was the only course to pursue. As tar as the local market was concerned, wtjlle the feeling- was easier, there, was no material change from the day before. Mon day's speculative bids for bluestem were not repeated and all offers were he same as noater'on Saturday, with sellers asking as much as heretofore: Until the Eastern mar-.L HAY Producers- prices: TiTnotfcy.

If the city demand for Christmas turkeys Is as good as &ie out-of-town Inquiry, prices wlrl be decidedly higher than prevailed dur ing the Thanksgiving season. Bales were made yesterday on shipping account at 29 cents and the orders took care of a large part of the early receipts. The local mar ket will opan today, and if the arrivals are. as small as some dealers believe they win' be, a firm market can be looked for. There was a good tradw In live poultry of all descriptions and prices were firm. Dressed meats were also- firm and veal was quoted higher. . The egg market was much steadier, with a better local demand and improved out side orders. "While a few sales were re ported at as low as 84 cents, other deal ers were enabled to move their stocks at 85 and 36 cents. Butter was half a cent lower on the street, at G34 cents for extras. At this price the surplus was cleaned up, but It took out-of-town buyers to do It. The cheese market was steady and prices ere not likely to be chaisged before the first of the year. GOOD HOPS ARE IN DEMAND Poorer Grades Neglected In All Pacific Coast Markets. There Is a steady demand In the Coast hop markets and a place will probably oe found for all the good hops here, but the lower grades are not finding favor: The sale of the Lee Loy crop of 209 bales at Wood burn at 8V4 cents- to F. S. Johnson was reported yesterday. " The Brewers' Bulletin says of the brewery trade: "Hop trade with brewers continues dila tory and devoid of interest. Dealers do not figure on much business until after the holidays, and prices to brewers remain nom inally unchanged In the absence of buying Interest-" ' ' Notwithstanding the British embargo against hops, 1083 cwt, of hop from the United States and 24S5 cwt. from other countries, were imported into Great Britain during tho months of September and Octo ber last. Exports for the same period were 1503 cwt.. leaving net imports of 2065 cwt.. as against net imports of 14,049 cwt. for the corresponding period one year ago, and 5867 cwl two years ago. AUSTRALIAN' BUTTER SAVES MARKET Britain Now Drawing Supplies From Her Colonies. Only the fact that Great Britain Is at present drawing supplies of butter from Australia prevents her coming into this country and buying up a good portion of the available supply. Advices just received by the Eastern trade told of two full cargoes of butter that had been sent forward from Australasia, but of these one had already bA torpedoed. - Mall advices stated that the government would not allow exports this year beyond the requirements of home con sumption, as had been the case in the past three years, when Australia had finally been compelled to import from America to re plenish her depleted supplies. . As to production, this has been the best year since 1911, but the prices prevailing were equivalent to 200 shillings laid down in London or Liverpool. It is understood that the decline In the American market has made It possible to place American . butter In those markets at about 195 shillings, so that there should. In the natural course of business, be a demand for American butter. BEEDLESS LEMON IS INTRODUCED Southern California Successfully Grows Canary Island Fruit. The seedless lemon will be the next Cali fornia candidate for popular favor. Sam ples of the first crop of Canary Island seedless lemons grown near Fullerton, Cal., were sent last week for display at the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. The new "native product" will attract considerable Rational" attention. An English sea captain . brought in the first two trees and plaiued them in a little valley In Ventura County. The one tree which' finally survived was frozen out four years ago. Several trees, however, have been budded from this tree and these are owned by a grower near Ful lertorL These are the only specimens of the seedless variety in the United States. The most pronounced feature of xbe Canary Island lemon la Its smooth skin, which is no thicker than a sheet of thin paper. The skin is filled with cells of Juice having a ' delicious acid flavor. FANCX RED APPLES ARE IN DEMAND Cheaper Grades Also Moving- Better for Holiday Trade. The demand for apples "has "Improved : during the past' two days. Sales are prin cipally of the cheaper grades, but ' buyers ore also inquiring for fancy red stock, which t not plentiful on the street. Another large shipment of Japanese or anges arrived yesterday. California navels are movirfer freely at steady prices. A car of Los Angeles cauliflower was re ceived and quoted at 2. The street was bare of .sweety potatoes, but a car is due Sotherlln Yards Completed. SUTHERL1N, Or.. Dee. 19. (Special.) The. new Southern Pacific stock yards, con- structlon of which was commenced several weeks ago, are now complete and the first carload of hogs was shipped out today by A. Wegner. Within the last four weeks Wegner c Culver have sent out four cars of hogs and cattle, and several additional rar lots of cattle will be shipped in a few days.

The stock mar ket's Initial response to the address of the British Premier, defining the attitude 01 his government toward Germany's proposal of peace negotiations, was a sweeping ad vance of 2 to 5 points in prominent -issues, followed almost immediately by a reversal of as much- tr more. On the setback, which was popularly at tributed to a combination of profit-taking. short selling and liquidation by bewildered investors, quotations fell In many instances to within hailing distance of last week's lowest levels. In fact sonTe of the more speculative shares, notably Utah Copper. Central Leather, some of the motors ana their subsidiaries, and Atlantic. Gulf & West Indies, established new mlnlmums for the current downward movement. Ralls sgaln resisted pressure, though less active than last week, a ad finished the ses sion at variable but net gains.

ALL OF GAIN IS LOST Wide Fluctuation Are Based on Chi cago Traders' Interpretations of Lloyd George's Speech Xo Support Is Shovpi at Decline. CHICAGO, Dec 19. After a akyrocket ascent of i cents today, wheat prices fell T cents and closed in a state of semi collapse at a range varying wildly from o under yesterday's finish to Tie net ad vance, with May at $1.64 to $1.65 and July at $1.38 to $1.88. The rise wss due to a general impression tnat ui. Britain had rejected outright the -German overtures for peace. Corn lost le to lc net. oats S'.iC to c and provlsMms 2e tfi 15 cents. - At the outset and for about an hour and a half later, the trade had no definite word as to tha nature of the British Pre mier's speech. Then came brief . but cir cumstantial reports that Lloyd George hsd said the war would not be abandoned until Great Britain's object had been accom plished. Boon after this and other Inore detailed confirmatory dispatches, the.' mar ket bounded upward about 4 cents in short order on top of an earlier rise of 3 cents or more- -. Selling that grew suddenly tnto something like a landslide took place whan the wheat market had .approached to within measure able distance of the prices ruling a week ago berore the announcement of the German offer. - Rushes to realize profits had much to do with the general unloading and the ensuing declines, but the stantpede to the bear side seemed to derive chief Impetus from what purported to be London dispatches ss sertlng that Lloyd George's address had left the door ajar for Germany provided speclfla terms were ntmed. No aggressive support was forthcoming In the sudden confusion that followed, and tha close found the stampede only checked In part at about na" a cent tip xrom tne oottom quota tions of the day. Corn swayed almost wholly as a result of the changes in the wheat market. Oat followed other grains and showed no sign of independence.
