Newspaper Page TextTITE JIORXIXG OREGONIAX, FRIDAY, APRIL 6; 1917. 19 OATS HIGHER AGAIN Top Prices of Season Paid at Local Exchange. i SALES AT $43 and $43.25 .Wheat Moves TJp With Advance In Eastern Market Flour Lifted 2 0 Cents to $9 Basis for Tatents. Hverythlne in tha cereal line was on the upgrade yesterday The 5-cent advance in the Eastern speculative wheat market added to the strength of wheat here, and bids at the Merchants" Exchange were advanced 2 to 4 cents, offers for bluestem being $1.81 and $1.82 and for club 1.76 and $1.77. The Eastern demand for wheat is wholly for quick shipment, and but little business can be worked because of the car shortage. If dealers were fortunate enough to have wheat in the East It could be sold at a big premium, as was shown by the sale of a car of bluestem at St. Louis yesterday at $2.23. or 15 cents over the Chicago May option. The fact that the wheat was in a car added somewhat tm the price, as It gave the miller who bought it the use of the car for his flour shipment. Trading In the country wasj reported light. At Seattle, bluestem was eold at $1.84 and club at $1.79. Oats were DO to 75 cents higher at the Exchange, with sales of 200 tons of May at $43 and $43.25. The strong Government de mand, coming after the extensive shipments into the sheep and cattle sections, has served to advance prices all along the Coast. Lo cal dealers have been called on to submit bids for 20.000 tons of oats and it is likely that emergency orders will be Issued short ly for additional quantities. The War De partment will! open bids in Texas on April 17 for 11.000 tons, to be delivered on the border and on May 1 .will receive bids for 3000 tons for use at various posts in the Western Department. Bids will be opened In this city on May 2 for 3000 tons, to be shipped to the Philippines and on May 3 Xor 3000 tons to go to Honolulu. There was a 20-cent advance in local flour prices yesterday as a result of the rise in the wheat market. The new quotation on patents Is $0 a barrel. The tnlllfeed list was also advanced sharply. Bran Is now quoted at $34 and shorts at $37. Rolled barley Is held at the mills at $46. All exchanges will be closed today. It be ing Good Friday. The Liverpool grain cable said: 'Wheat, firm, but dull, arrivals increas ing and at present adequate with expecta tions of continued ample arrivals. Corn, strong, arrivals moderate. Export offers lim ited. Oats, firm. Bank of England rate re duced to 5 per cent. "Argentina Rain reported in North and gathering of corn being Interfered with.

Little or nothing Is reported In the Bos ton market so far as sales of domestic mo hair are concerned, and it would appear that nothing, or next to nothing, has occurred in the Western and Southwestern fields, says the Commercial Bulletin. All efforts to con tract have been unsuccessful as a general rule, growers asking prices that buyers are refusing absolutely to pay. A little Cape firsts hair Is being sold in the market here now, and then mostly in the range of 08 to 03 cents, and for good Summer firsts occasionally a cent or two tnore Is paid. At the Cape nothing is reported of mo rn en t. Now and then American orders are reported and some business has been done there recently at about 43 cents for Winter firsts. Reports from England report a hand-to-inouth business with the spinners who are engaged to a marked extent on wool spin ning for the government, thus preventing the operation on mohair yarns. Demand keeps Bteady for alpaca in Liv erpool, not only for fleeces but also for ln forlor sorts and seconds, wnlch have been Bold there at good rates recently.

G RANGE VILLE, Idaho, April 5. (Spa. clal. ) "Silos have saved the rives of thou sands of head of livestock throughout tha Inland Empire." said Paul E. Clagstone, secretary of the Northwest Livestock Show. The Winter has been an unusually long and severe one throughout the Salmon and Snake River sections. The supply of grain and hay In many localities was exhausted several weeks ago, and silage has been the principal feed of much of the stock. The protracted Winter Is breaking In the upper altitudes, and in all probability there will not be very much stock lost." Naval Stores. 8 AV ANN AH, Ga.. April B.

RAILS UNDER PRESSURE Action by Senate Has Little Influ ence on Market Public Support Is locking; International War Bonds Are Steady. NEW YORK. April B. Liquidation and short selling continued with Increased vigor and breadth in tha rtock market today in the further absence of public support. Heavi ness of investment rails was a striking fea ture, giving rise to reports of a recurrence of foreign offerings. Greater weakness prevailed among tha prominent Industrials, Including munitions and equipments, where the problems likely arise from war taxes occasioned much discussion. Adoption by the Senate of the war resolution and reduction of the British bank rate, favorable factors according to the general plont of view, exerted little or no influence on the market. A considerable part of today's selling was sscrlbed to traders who were loath to hold their outstanding contracts over the holi day. This was balanced, however, by the heavy volume of short offerings which cen tered around the mora volatile Issues. United States Steel held Its accustomed place as leader, furnishing from 20 to 25 per cent of the total turnover and making a net loss of 2 points at 113. Bethlehem Steels were 4 to 5 points lower, with 2 to 4 for the others of that group. All the active metals. ol!s. leathers, papers and utilities were 2 to 8 points lower, with 6 for Ohio Gas at 132H. Final prices were only nominally above lowest levels. Total sales, 920.000 shares. Bonds were Irregular, but mainly lower. the International division, however, record- ng no material alteration. Total sales, par value, $4,550,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. bid.
