LOCAL PRICES REDUCED at a wide range, the best bringing 32 35 cents. Ducks were- very scarce. The demand for live poultry slowed down. APPIE - SHII'.MKNTS ARE DOUBLE Oregon Movement for Season to December 10, 4S48 Carloads. Oregon apple shipments from the begin ning of the season to December 10 were double those of the same period last year. About the same proportion prevailed In other boxed apple states. Carlot shipments of boxed apples are reported follows: by the bureau of markets as Market Quiet With Very Little Sell ing by Farmers India May I'rohibit Shipments. The wheat market had a weaker ten dency yesterday. Soft white bids at the Merchants' Exchange were the same as Wednesday, but all other bids were 1 cent lower. The market was quiet. Not much wheat was offered here and In the country selling by farmers was very light. The export demand for Pacific coast heat continues as unsatisfactory as for everal weeks past. The day's cables ahowed that prices available in Europe were several cents Delow a parity with the values ruling here. There was aata Jnf in the character o the day's news from abroad to indicate an early resump tion of business at this end. Eastern weather reports pointed to rain or snow soon In districts where moisture Ss needed by the fall crop, Lake navigation Is still open, as shown ty the clearance of a wheat cargo from I'ort Arthur. This Is the latest date that any boat has left that port in 40 years. In 3881 gruin cleared as late as Decem ber 27. The Liverpool wheat market closed fVid tllghef. Harvesting of wheat in Argentina la being delayed by rain. An unofficial report from India says that In all probability wheat exports will be prohibited next season. Indian crop prospects are favorable and the wheat yield will no doubt allow of a certain surplus for export, but this will now go to replenish depleted stocks. The Danublan market, according to Cables, was very quiet. The weather Is cold w-lth snow storms delaying shipping to be caught In the ice. Terminal receipts, in cars, were re ported by the Merchants' Exchange, as follows: Portland Thursday California . Colorado ..

CANADA CLEANS CP STORAGE EGGS Orders on Market for Five More Cars Which Cannot Be Filled. With fret-h eggs holding at a high level anil likely to continue so until after Christmas, the demand for storage eggs, because of the great difference In price, lias become stronger. There were orders 0:1 the market yesterday for five cars of storage eggs for Immediate shipment to Canada but there are not that many left In the local coolers. Less than 20II0 cases remain in storage here at the present time. But for the Canadian business, storage eculators would probably be facing a loss. Ten or 12 cars were shipped across tli.j line, most of them to Alberta districts, and these: orders have practically brought to a close the storage season here. A good grade of storage eggs was quoted yester day at 40 cents, which is more than they were worth any time earlier In the sea son. Ranch egg receipts are still held back by weather conditions, but tt Is believed supplies In the country are accumulating, w hlch may lower the market next week. The demund yesterday was brisk. Bids made to country shippers ranged from 44 to 40 cents. The bulter market was firm and un changed at 42 cents for cube extras. New Zealand butter is being offered to the trade at 36 Cents Vancouver, duty paid. HICK TCJtKKY PRICE MAINTAINED Large Receipts Clean Ip at 474g Cents. Dressed Geese Hell Well. The dressed turkey market was strong and active yesterday. Receipts were large and cleaned up well at 4748 cents. Some retailers held back, expecting a break to day, but others bought freely.

Junior steels, cop pers, chemicals, textiles and tobaccos reg istered extreme reactions of 1 to 4 points. Equipments, especially American Loco motive and General Electric, were about the only stocks In which the short inter est deemed it advisable to cover contracts. The. sluggish course of rails other than coalers reflected further neglect of those issues. Sales were 700.000 shares. The money market was Inclined to re lax, although interior banks drew upon their local reserves for home requirements. Call loans opened at 6 per cent, but eased to 3 in the afternoon with private offer ings on good collateral at 44 per cent. in the bond market, the feature was the heaviness of foreign Issues notably French municipals, which broke sharply on rela tive small sales. The domestic bond list Including liberty Issues and rails, was Ir regularly lower. Total sales, par value. (IK. 7 50.000. Without exception, foreign exchanges were lower, despite cables indicating an amicable meeting between the British and French premiers.

Early Market Favorably Influenced by European Demand for Man itoba Qrain, Relief Measures. CHICAGO, Dec. 22. Heavy profit-taking sales on the part of recent buyers did a good deal toward bringing about ia setback in wheat prices today, notwith standing some display of strength in the market during the first half of the ses sion. Quotations closed weak, c to lc net lower, with May 91.13 to 9115 and July 91.04 to 9104. Corn finished un- changed to -c higher; oats off c to c. and provisions unchanged to 2()c up. Before profit-taking sales acquired mo mentum, the wheat market was influ enced by reports of European demand for future deliveries at Winnipeg and by talk of harvest delays In Argentina. Word was at hand, too, that the Australian export able surplus would show a material re duction from estimates which have been current of late. Bulls put stress also on what they described as the precarious out look for the domestic wlnter crop and on hoped for stimulating effect of prospective Russian relief demand for corn. Highest prices of the day were reached aUer an nouncement that the relief bill had been put up to President Harding. Then prolit taking broadened out. however, and the market rapidly declined. Corn and oats advanced as a result of Russian relief plans, but like wlitat re acted under pressure of sales to realize profits. Provisions averaged higher with hogs. The Chicago grain letter received yester day by the Overbeck A Cooke company of Portland follows: "Wheat The trade today was of a pre holiday character and considering the vol ume of liquidation that made Its appear ance, the market gave an excellent account of Itself. Outside markets were without feature, following the grneral trend of our fluctuations. The seaboard failed to report any export business in wheat, al though they did say that there was an improved demund for flour. The most po tent factor at the moment Is the evidence that good milling wheat is already becom ing scarce in many sections of the country.

Hogs Twenty-Five Cents Hislicr With Small Supply Available. Cattle Are Unchanged. Eight loads of stock reached the local yards yoaterday, of which one load of cattle and two loads of sheep went through. Another decline of a quarter was noted 10 all grades of Iambs, except east of the mountains stock, none of which is now on hand. The hog market continued its recent firmness and prices were advanced a quarter to D as the regular top. Ail gradia of cattle were steady and unchanged. The yards will not be open for business Monday, but all stock received will be fed and watered as usual. Receipts yesterday were 57 cattle, two see what the situation will be later In the c"i,v""' . hl"!' "nd BM) "TT, season. Furthermore, we have not as yet enjoyed so much as a normal flour demand and It Is within reason to expect that be fore many months there will be quite a scramble for flour from all sections. It is the consensus of opinion among milling Interests that this demand will got under way Immediately after the first of the year. We believe higher prices will be re corded based on domestic conditions alone. "Corn The market was active and ad vanced to a new high level on the present movement early in the day, but sold off later on reports of Increased country of ferings. A canvass of receivers, however, disclosed the fact that there was only a moderate increase and that the average country holders are not yet disposed to sell freely. The shipping demand was excep tionally good with sales of 040,000 bushels reported, most of which was for exporters. Our prediction that there would be a good demand for the increased movement is being fully realized and we continue to have confidence in higher prices. "Oats Again showed strength, but held within a comparatively narrow range due to the persistent selling on the bulges by longs. The cash demand was more active than It has been recently and spot pre miums were slightly htKher. Kye Buying of futures, credited to ex port interests, gave this morket a strong appearance Cash rye was nominally steady at 3 cents over December bid No. 2 on track."
