BETTER SUPPLIES OF
PEACHES DUE SOOiJ
Heavier Movement From Cali
fornia Predicted.
MARKET HOLDING UP WELL
Soi tbern-Grown Crawfords Not Ex
pected in Quantities for Two
AVceks, Dealers Kcport.
There were no carlot arrivals of peaches
from the south yesterday, but with prevloua
tnpplies of California Crawfords and Ore
gon Alexanders and Hales coming in a mod
erate way and the demand more or less
limited, offerings were sufficient and prices
generally held at the previous leveL
' A considerable Increase in the movement
M Calif omias to this market is expected
th? coming week, and dealers also look for
Mine improvement in the quality of the of
ferings from that quarter. Most of the
Crawfords brought in to date have been of
fvmall size and some complaint is heard re
garding the quality f the fruit.
Crawfords on the street yesterday sold at
Jm extreme range of $1.15 to $1.50 a box,
jnost of them going at $1.35. Oregona at
the same lime sold at $1 to 1.25 for the most
3 art, off grade stock in some cases going at
fcIO cents.
The best peaches that come to Portland
tmaritts northern-grown Cradfords are not
Expected In quantities for about two weeks.
fmt reports from the Ashland district indi
ratc limited offerings from that quarter
:fche coming week. The Oregon and "Wash
ington peach crop this year promises to be
bite of good size, probably greater than that
tf last year, but it is said by some that the
rait this season will run more largely than
tzsval to the small sizes. This remains to be
VeriHod, however.
Ca lifomia Bartlett pears were available
In a moderate way yesterday, selling at $4
to 1 1.25 generally. Most of the offerings
showed good quality and dealers reported a
alr demand and a satisfactory movement.
.Apricots from the south held firmly at
prices around $2, according to size and qual
ity. There was a slightly better feeling In the
fcantaloupe trade, due mainly to the approx
imate clean-up of Imperial valley stock.
"With this out of the way some improvemen
in the quality of the offerings is assured, and
Jocuf dealers are confident that the situation
will adjust Itself within the next few days.
There was a good demand for quality cants
yesterday and trado was active, though the
market still was more or less topheavy
Standard Turlocks sold to retailers at $2.50
Us $2.75.
Tnrlock reported the weather warm and
oleiir, iiauling3 moderate and the demand
srnd movement active, with little or no
change in prices. Picking in the late planted
tie 10 s will begin within a few days.
1 Egff Market Shade Kasier.
TVhile ithere was no evidence of marked
Weakness in the egg trade yesterday, the
market seemed to show a slightly easier
tone than for some time past. Rather
lieay receipts were reported and dealers
reported the demand a little slack. No
serious break, however, is feared at this
fctago of the season. Buying prices of 41
to Tu centa were quoted on the street. The
poultry market was said to be holding up
In a fairly firm way, hens selling at -S to
JJO tents a pourjd and broilers at 22 to 30
cent:-. . Veal and pork were steady at the
pre. iaus range.
Quality Berries in Demand.
Th-jre was an excellent demand for good
prailc berries on the street yesterday, but
offerings were meager. Choice raspberries
weru a ready seller at $3.00 to $X75, and
blackberries were quoted at $n. Logans held
sit $2. S3, but there were only a few small
lots in evidence. Good currants were said
io be in demand at $2 to $2.25 a crate. This'
wePk practically finishes tho red raspberry
crop in thia section. Heavier offerings of
blackberries aro expected the coming week,
smd with tho berry market generally strong
oo 1 prices are counted on.

C. A. TOWNSEXD THREATENED
AVITII FIXE FOR CONTEMPT.
J ud Tuztvcll " Accuses Attorney of
lloldins; Divorce Papers to Get
HijErh Fee From Woman.
If C. A. Townsend, an attorney of this
city, does not hasten early this morn
ing to file with the county clerk a de
cree and judgment of divorce signed by
Circuit Judge Taxwell Wednesday, he
will beb rought into court on a bench
warrant and fined for contempt.
This was the assertion of Judge Taz
well last night when he discovered that
Townsend had failed to file papers he
was supposed to have taken to the
clerk's office Wedensday, and which he
was 'ordered by the court to place on
record by noon yesterday. Up to clos
ing t'itne at 5 o'clock yesterday after
noon Townsend. had not filed the pa
pers -attesting to the freedom granted
Winifred Harris from Krnest 1'. Har
ris. -Yccording .to Mrs. Harris., who went
with tears In her. eyes to see the judge,
tihe has- paid Townnend, who is her at
torney, between $85 and $90 already as
his fee, and he is holding out the di
vorce papers granted by the court with
tho threat that he will not file them
unless his client pays $25 more to him.
Judge Tazwell severely reprimanded
the attorney in court yesterday and de
manded that he produce the papers as
soon as possible. He promised, said
J udge Tazwell, to have them recorded
by noon.
"This appears a flagrant rape of
abuse o f privilege," commented Judge
Tazwell, "and either that attorney will
jump to file those papers in the morn
ing or I'll have him up before me
mighty quick on contempt proceedings.
The woman has paid, according to her
story, which lam inclined to believe,
more than the usual fee already, and
cannot be held up for more. When I
gave the papers to the attorney I as
sumed he would take them direct to
tho county clerk's office and file them,
or they should never have gone into
his hands."

STEELS STRONG FEATURE
GROUP OPENS WITH GALNS IN
SECURITIES MARKET!
Passing of Bethlehem Dividend. Re
sults In Recession Speculative
Influences Are Active.
NEW YORK, July 4. The same spec
ulative Influences which have been foremost
on the bull side of the stock market slnvs
la?it Tuesday's rapid recovery were oper
ative again today, though in modified de
gree. Surface developments, excepting the sus
pension of "extra" dividends on the com
mon shares of Bethlehem Steel, were, muln-
y encouraging and the varied character of
the trading offered further proof of the ac
tivity cf professional Interests.
fasMng of the tlethlehem dividends occa
sioned little surprise, such a course having
been practiced ever since the V. K. Steel di
rectors took similar action three months ago.
oteeis were among the conspicuously strong
feature of the early session, that group
opening at material advances, but fallmg
ilethlehem action.
Motors and their distinctive subsidiaries,
notably electric, rubber and leather equip
ments, were heavily traded In, Stromberc
Carbureter fluctuating wildly In a 12 -s-point
radius and closing at a net gain of 3 points.
Tobacco, shipping and food shares con
tributed their recent large proportions at
gross advances of - to V points, but yielded
with the general list In the free selling
the final hour.
All the favorite Issues, including U. ft.
Steel, reversed their positions of the early
and Intermediate sessions, the reaction rang
ing from 2 to C point and causing an irreg
ular to heavy close. balcs amounted to
1,600.000 bhres.
Uonds, Including liberty and foreign Ih-
sues, were irregular, but sound Investment
conditions were exemplified by the success
of the 8 wis government lonn and clolny
of the Shell Transport syndicate offering.
Total sales of bondi, par value, aggregated
