THE MOnXING OREfiONTAN, TUESDAY. JANUARY 23, 1917. 19 WHEAT TONE FIRMER Saturday's Bids Are Repeated in Country. FARMERS ARE NOT SELLERS Prices Cifrrent Week Ago and Xo Vens Are Demanded at Interior Points-Demand From Cal ifornia Helps Oats. The late upturn la wheat at Chicago had the effect of making a firmer market here after the depression of the latter part of last week, but there was no resumption of buying1, so far as could be learned. Dealers were not keen for wheat and the prices put out In the country were unchanged from Saturday, S1.57 for bluestem, $1.55 for 40-fold,' $1.53 for club and $1.50 for red Russian. Those wheat bids did not appeal to farmers, who were not disposed to con sider anything less than the prices quoted ne week ago. At the Merchants Exchange bluestem and club bids were 1 cent higher, and 40- fold and red 2 cents higher than Saturday. Bidders on the Exchange also offered less for oats, but holders were firm and the market generally seemed to be In good shape In consequence of Inquiry from Cali fornia. The barley market was dull. The day's cable from Liverpool said: "Wheat firm with export offers light. Continent absorption large. Corn firm on light world's shipments. American ship ments Increasing Oats very firm, but dull as recent advance was very rapid. "Argentina Heavy rain yesterday In the center, but nothing In the north. Today clear and hot- Interior movement of all grains to ports light. Clearances moderate- Insurance difficult to obtain. 'Italy and France Weather continues old. Oats and corn are unfavorable.

A NOT UK R DROP IX EGG MARKET Prices Likely to Decline Until Shipping Outlet Is Found. The- egg market yesterday went off 2 to 8 cents below Saturday's price. Sales were made on the street at 34 and 85 cents, case count Receipts were the largest of any day this year, and the demand. might be expected, was of a hand-to-mouth . character. The price Is likely to sag -until It reaches a level where an outside mar ket can be found for the surplus that is piling up on the street. The present quo tation does not appeal to buyers in the North. Butter was firm, with cube extras quoted st 37 cents. No further change was an nounced In local print prices. Poultry receipts were light and sold readily at the old quotations. Dressed meats were firm and unchanged. CALIFORNIA VEGETABLES STI I.L HIGH Y'otatoes and Onions Quoted at Last Week's Prices. The demsnd for California vegetables Is fairly good. Prices are unusually high, but are obtainable, as no other vegetables are to be had. Among the receipts yester day were two cars of cauliflower, one from San Francisco and the other from Los Ange les, and a car of lettuce. Southern sprouts were quoted a cent, higher. No changes were reported in the onion or potato mar 'kets. Bank Clearings. Bank clearings of the Northwestern cities yesterday were as follows: Olearin rs.

Jan. 22. stocks were mod erately unsettled during the first half of today's session because of ths announce ment that President Wilson would address the United States Senate on impending in let-national developments. Early gains of 1 to 2 points in specialties were soon re placed by extreme losses of 2 to 4 points In speculative favorites, with more for ship pings and Bethlehem Steel, the latter reach ing 15 points. The purport of ths Chief Executive's speech became generally known in the aft ernoon and prices rallied, but only In a few important cases were full recoveries made. Bethlehem Steel was watched for some line or indication of action by tha directors at tomorrow's meeting. United States Steel as well as Crucible, Lackawanna and Gulf States Steel, were S to 4 points down lowest levels, with similar recessions in shippings and coppers. Kails averaged 1 point decline, with points for Reading. Final prices were only nominally above minimum quotations. Total sales of stocks. 8 1 0,000 shares. Further acute weakness was shown by Russian and Italian exchange, both regis taring new low records, with rubles at 28.70 and Urea at 7.07. German and Austrian rates also denoted lack of demand.

STEW Graad Opera Draws Crowds aad Homes Are Gathering Places for Many f Social Affairs. The shops of Chinatown wvre tightly shuttered yesterday lu observance of . the Chinese New Year. They will re main so for several days, aa 11 the restaurants. many of which bore placards in English announcing the holiday. Banqueting began ast night, and will continue for several weeks, it ia said. The MancLurlan drama that is being enacted at Arlon Hall affords another variety of social diversion. Several hundreds of Chinese attended the opera yesterday, and gave the per formance the approval of rapt atlen- ti n. In the homes end stores of China town are t.ays of sweetmeats, candied citron, ginger, beans, melon, pumpkin and strange fruits. Also there are brottd dishes of dried mel' u seeds, which, as the Chinese sagely affirm, are eaten merely in the Interludes of conversation, as a social grace. Late Sunday night, as the old year waned, in eve .-y store and business house of Chinatown, accountants rat tled the counters of the abacus and deftly plied t' marking? ""-ush. They were settling up the scores of tho year, and closing the books. A plant gr--'ng on mountains in Central Europe develops enough heat to push its flower star -. through snow and produce Mo.otns.
