BARLEY AND OATS ARE STRONG
Moderate Wheat Selling Movement Reported
From Country.
Barley and oats were stronger all along
the Una yesterday. At Seattle, feed barley
was sold at 850. Oats ara held to be worth
951 in the local market.
Wheat-selling In the country waa at the
rate usual for the past few days. The move
ment Is gradually increasing, but is not
likely to attain good proportions until the
price question is settled at Washington.
Whatever the price Is, whether It will be
the Chicago basis or a new basis for Port-
land, it will be the maximum price which a
miller can pay for wheat.
The market for spot mill feed is holding
firm, as there Is practically none to be had.
One hundred tons of October bran were
old at the Merchants' Exchange at $30.
Weather conditions in the Middle West
as wired from Chicago:
"Minneapolis, cloudy, cool. Duluth, Win
nipeg, cloudy. Chicago, clear to partly
cloudy. Peoria. Kansas City. St. Louis. 6t.
Joseph, clear. Topeka, Hutchinson, Omaha,
clear. Davenport, partly cloudy, warmer.

GOOD SUPPLY OF MOHAIR EAST
Trading; Is Dull and Quotations More or Less
NomlnaL
Business In tha Eastern markets for mo
hair has been very dull and supplies are
fairly considerable, with holders asking va
rious prices. It is difficult to. make any
hard and fast quotation since there Is no
market from which to make quotations.
In Yorkshire the situation is without any
material change from conditions which have
been ruling for some time, according to ad
vices to the Boston Commercial Bulletin.
Stocks of mohair have increased latterly,
It appears from regular cable advices. In
Bradford, although licenses to ship any of
the stocks to America are not easily forth
coming: In tact, are secured only with dlf
flculty.
Advices from the Cape ara meager, but
romor thence have been to the eftect that

tha government purchase scheme for wool,
tops and nolle Is not likely to be put into
effect, as has been expected. The South
African protectorate apparently is not open
sufficiently to even moral suasion to make
such a programme effective.
Sales of alpaca continue steadily In Liv
erpool, with prices very firmly maintained
for all classes.
STOCK CONDITIONS ABOUT NORMAL
No Serious Reenlts Anticipated by Assistant
Forester Barnes.
PENDLETON. Or., Sept. 13. 'Special )
Stock conditions in Oregon are perhaps a
little below normal, but no serious results
are to be anticipated, said Will O. Barnes,
assistant forester of the United States, who
is here on an inspection trip over the Gov
ernment reserves. He believes the stockmen
will be compelled to sell off a part of their
herds to avoid the losses they suffered last
year, but does not look for a large sale
for the reason that, with prices so high,
the stockman will find it to his advantage
to hold all the stock he can possibly care
for.
While the ranges are not in good shape
this year, Mr. Barnes finds that there Is
plenty of feed In the country. It Is, how-
ever, held largely In the hands of specula
tors and high prices are demanded.
ALL HZDE MARKETS ARE DECLINING
Local Buying Prices Will Be Two Cents
Lower Monday.
There will be another drop of 2 cents In
hide prices next week. The market Is very

From Petrograd Rate of Ex
change on Russia Rises Sharp
ly Bond Tone Is Better.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14. A broad and vig
orous upturn in stocks today offset In part
the losses sustained in the last few days.
At the top price there was a representative
showing of advances ranging from 1 to 3
points. Total sales were 415.000 shares.
The advance was accompanied by a re
vival of bullish interest, and outside buying
Increased considerably. The upward swing
sas facilitated by the announcement from
Petrograd that the insurrectionary move
ment had been mastered by the provisional
government. In the exchange market rubies
responded strongly. The rate was advanced
to 17 cents, as compared with the recent
low record of 11 H.
In the railroad' list New Haven, con
spicuously heavy recently, was sold at an
advance of more than 2 points. Reading,
Delaware A Hudson, St. Paul, Canadian Pa
cific and other recent weak features were
in good demand at higher prices.
In the Industrial section there waa an
active inquiry for the coppers, steels, oils,
motors, equipments and shipping shares.
A decidedly better tone prevailed In the
bond market. Active Issues averaged higher,
although the bid and asked quotations for
some of the less prominent lines continued
to be wide apart. Liberty bonds reflected
a brisk Investment demand, with large
transactions at par after early sales at
99.94. Total sales, par value. $3,550,000.
United States bonds were unchanged on call.

CLOSE OF MARKET HEAVY
Wheat Receipts Gain In Volume,

mate for Spring Crop.
CHICAGO. Sept. 14. General selling of
corn resulted today from assertions that
Germany's peao terms had been handed to
the Pope. The market, which for the most
part had been advancing until the peace
talk became current, turned then sharply
downgrade. Closing quotations were heavy,
to 1 net lower, at $L1S to $1.18
for December. In provisions the outcome
ranged from SOc decline to a raise of 35c
Except during a brief time at the ooen
ing, corn showed decided strength through
out the first half of the session. The fact
that the peace reports Included speclflo ref
erences to absolute Independence for Bel-
glum tended further to handlcan tha bulla
and there was no lmDortant reaction from
the break In values as the market came to
an end.
Export purchases amounting1 to 800.000
bushels failed to prevent oats from sagging
in corn in toe late trading.
Supplies of wheat sained a little volume.
but not sufficiently so to overtake the de
mand. Latest estimates of the Spring crop
tne uakotas and Minnesota put the ag
gregate at 6.000.000 bushels less than was
suggested by the Government September re
port-

TRADE PROSPECTS EACOCRAGEJ
Industrial Outputs Only Limited by Lack
of Labor.
NEW YORK. Sept, 14. Bradstreet'a to-
xuurruw win say;
Trade grows, prospects for Fall are en
couraging and Industrial outputs generally
are only limited by lack of labor, but de
pression Is created in some channels by past
w, tuiure price rixing, by oncer
tainiy over taxation on excess profits, by
the hardening of rates for money and by
the husbanding of resources to take care of
the forthcoming Government loan. Still the
wants of a very numerous vn.fimninv,rf
people plus the enormous needs of a wealthy
nation at war has made for a forwanl
movement, and, while Government buying
iseDi, mm more important market
nave oeen visited by numerous merchants
who have taken staple articles rather freely.
It is undeniable, however, that high prices
tend to deter free buying, and, moreover,
those who control credit reins are disposed
to discourage the locking up of too much
"i nign-pncaa mercnandlse, espe
cially as It is a foregone conclusion that h.
Government's needs for money must receive
preceaence.
