Newspaper Page TextTHE SUNDAY' OREG02OAN, P0RTLA2, HAY 13, .1900. 23 COMMERCIAL AND" The second week In May -went out yesterday with the dullest wbeat market of the season, and. the Inactivity which has characterized the wool market since the opening of the season is s-till very I much In evidence. Despite these un favorable factors, general trade through out the week was excellent. The salmon run on the Lower Columbia is highly sat- I isfactory, and the prices-paid are so much better than In former years that the fishermen ail have plenty of money to spend. "With the exception of wheat, price changes have been of small con sequence during the week. In th case of the cereal, the market is full 2 cents lower than it was a week ago. Potatoes suffered a slight decline In the San Fran cisco market, and a sympathetic reduc tion followed in the Portland market, the price now being back to 45 and 53 cents lor he "best stock which can be secured. There are very few choice upland Bur banks left, and the average run of .offer ings go for less money, most of the sales, being around SS and 40 cents -per cental." New potatoes are plentiful, and the gen-., eral price is 1 cents f per pound. New California onions are plentiful at 2 and 3 cents per pound. A carload of California strawberries was received Friday evening, and if the grow ers get their freight money out of the consignment they will be in luck. The uit "was too long on the "way,, and was ubout half spoiled when it reached .here. Some of the best of it sold around 00 and 75 cents per crate, but the greater part of It was offering at 25 and 35 cents per crate. Good California berries sold yesterday at $1 and $1 50 per crate, and Oregon berries sold at 23 and 30 cents, with hardly enough to supply the demand. A carload of bananas came In yesterday, arriving rather ripe for shipping, butln Cood order for Immediate use. The poul try markets cleaned up well yesterday at good pjlces. Eggs are a shade'lower, and stocks are accumulating. In the grocery jr - "market a decline in package coffee is the uiiij iic.i ui interest. "Wheat There was plenty of wheat of fered for sale yesterday at the prices which might have been paid a week ago; but exporters seem to have got in line with the rest of the world's markets,. and. are not Inclined to make fancy bids for tha cereal. All markets wore lower yes terday, and May wheat in San Francisco was quoted 54 cents per bushel, the low est figure reached In San Francisco for many years. At Portland a?few.men had offers of 52 cents out, but were not getting much wheat, and" one sale of No. 1 "Walla "Walla was reported at 52& cents. There is considerable wheat on spot, and with uncertainty regarding the rising waters of the Columbia and "Willamette, .there seems to be less desire to add to the stocks that are already piled up on the docks. The only spot ship on the free list in the river was chartered yesterday at a rate much above that 'which could be paid for a vessel with the market In its pres ent condition, if It was necessary to buy wheat to fill her. There has been hut very little charter ing during the week, and when stocks on spot are cleaned up there will be still less doing in the way of new business, unless the foreign markets take a turn for the better. There Is enough tonnage strung along over the next two or three months before the new crop commences to move to take care of what has already been bought and that which will come drib bling along in small lots, and until this is exhausted exporters will not pay the exorbitant Tates at which ships are held. Crop conditions in the Northwest con tinue, most favorable, especially east of the mountains, where nothing but the hot winds can prevent a bumper crop. The outlook in California Is also much Im proved, the San Francisco Commercial News of the 10th reporting as follows: "The situation In California has heen much Improved by the recent rains; all sections but Southern California report ,good prospects for the coming wheat crop, and In some parts of the San Joaquin Valley the heaviest yield for years Is expected. Business in the local market Is light, and will continue so until the advent of the new crop. Millers are buy ing to a small extent." "WOOLThere is little or nothing doing in the local pool market, and quotations remain strictly nominal. The situation from an JSa-nern point of view Is thus . set forth by the New York Commercial: ' 'The "West Is not going to weaken. This Is something that is being more firmly impressed upon the seaboard mar ket every day. The new clip Is further along, by a w eek or 30 days at leas't, than is customary at this time of the year, and yet the buyers in the field have bought less than they would ordinarily have done at this time. An offer of i;i cents, against a demand of 21 cents, is not conducive of early purchasing. There is little or no change in the local situa tion. Stockfe-'have been generally cleaned up and. thert "". HIV M-p-.ntnf- i way or the other. Some one-quarter b oods grades have come out ini vuv.r during the present week, and have found a ready market at prevailing prices, but on the whole there is no Improvement in the general run of business. "'It Is only a very few days now until the beginning of the London May sales, and as the time grows nearer there Is an Increased Interest in foreign wools. The sales will be watched much more closely than usual from this side of the water on account of the conditions, which are holding domestic wool on anything but a settled basis. There are good reasons for heavy American buIng at these sales, for there is more real demand for foreign wool, even in the Fall, if the new clip promises to be unusually large, than there ever was before. The American mills are Increasing their consumption much more rapidly than those of either England or the Contlnont- "The demand for carpet wools is bettor than It was a week or two ago and there is a better tone to the market. Quoted prices, however, remain unchanged." POUTLAXD ai.VniCETS. Grain, Flour. Etc. "Wheat Walla Walla, 526324c: Valley, 51 B2c, Muetem. S4&5c per bushel. Flour Best grades. $2 KiJ3.

Wild West The Forepaugh Sc Sells Brothers' circus and Buffalo Bill's show, both of -which are controlled by James A. Bailey, will be arrayed against the Ring ling Brothers. Save In one or two .former seasons, the Rlngllngs have kept to the West, which is their stronghold. Thla season, says the Dramatic Mirror, they aro again Invading- the Eastern States, and, although the odds are two against one, they will have an advantage In reaching New England first, provided tho weather should not be too cool. The Ringlings will play Boston two weeks be fore the Forepaugh & Sells Brothers, and both shows are being heralded tre mendously by expert advance men. Throughout New England the three shows will come Into close conflict Already the agents are gobbling the billboards, and It Is said to be difficult for theatrical com panies to secure spaco for their paper. INDIAN WAR-- PENSIONS REPRESENTATIVE TOXGUE'S LET TER TO "VVELL-KXOWX VETERAX. An. Explanation to Samuel Handsa le r, of Eugene City, on tlae Rea sons for , Legislative Delay. WASHINGTON, May 2. My Dear Sir: Yours of the 15th Inst, has just been re ceived. Permit me to state briefly the present situation of the Indian War pen sion bill. You will perhaps remember that In 1S92 the original law was passed which this present bill seeks to amend. That law provided for granting a pen sion to the veterans of the Blackhawk 'War, Seminole War and several other Indian wars. Why the Oregon wars were not Included in that law I have " been -unable to ascertain. At the last Con gress Senator MoBrlde Introduced a bill in the Senate, and I Introduced one in the House, to amend the law of 1S02 so as to grant the same pensions to the sur .vlyora of the Indian. Avars of Oregon and Washington and some other wars through out the United States as was given to the survivors of the Indian wars named in the law of 1S02. The bill passed the Senate, as It had done In the previous Congress, but met decided opposition in tho House at the hands of the Speaker. When," J began to 16bk into the -matter and came to Congress, it seemed" Impos sible to convince Speaker Reed or the members of the committee having charge of the bill that there was any real merit in it. All seemed to labor under the Im pression that the Indian wars of Ore gon were .something like those at a later ,day mall neighborhood, affairs, lasting but a few days ago and that they wero waged in defense of large, valuable farms which the Government .had given to the early settlers without money and without price. One marked advantage, at least, has been made. I have. succeeded in con vincing the Speaker of the House, or rath er both Speakers, and the members of the committee, that the bill has real merit, that these Indian War veter ans. Instead of defending their own homes, went hundreds of miles to defend settlers in other localities, and to perform duties .that tho Government ought to have per formed, and which It shamelessly neg lected. I have further convinced them 'that, instead of the Government giving to the early settlers of Oregon valuable farms, the early settlers of Oregon gave that state to the Government and to the flag. They are satisfied now with the justice of the bill. They would be readv. II think, to report It and pass it. If It" was Deiieved that the bill could fairly be passed at the present session. Democratic hos tility two years ago was so marked that tthe Democrats refused to give unanimous consent for me to address thr House r.n .ma um uciuro ma committee naa re ported. I have not hdd such a reauest refused on any other subject, nor Is It usual to refuse such request to any mem ber of the House. It Is believed that If this bill should come before tho House, there would be an ef fort to attach to It Important and 'seri ous amendments, that would either force the defeat of the bill or would make It extremely odious. The question now Is whether there Is any way to prevent such a catastrophe. I am hoping to be" able to .procure the consent of both sides of the House, and If the bill is reported and brought up for action. It will not bo at tacked by any attempts to load it with this class of amendments. That cannot be done: unless Democrats consent to it as well as Republicans. I am doing every, thing I can looking toward securing- such a result. What the outcome will be it Is impossible for me to definitely aav. Th- 1 nearness cf the election in Oregon1 will 1 fe.ared' make e Democrats extfemel ""-"uus to taKe such a course as will defeat the bill or will make its passage extremely obnoxious through the charac ter of the amendments that may be at tached to It. L"5 :5fS?'-c.6""' f 'no iib- tlen of thin Vim ,..., . ,t llu UUI extremely anx- i lhSKt Ji Eh0Uld -pass" " ouK fa hao passed years ago. Every hour of delay Is a continuation of tho injustice these, veterans have suffered jears and magf;v,They were abanoned to the mercy of the savage in the early das of Oregxra and the Injustice ought not to be condoned. . Now. this much in explanation of the Permit me to call your attentlob. to the fact that this bill Includes pensions for wars In Oregon. Washington, and two L hree otner states of the Union. These old. Veterans reside In California, In both Congressional districts of Oregon, in Florida, and other states. So far as r know, and I have an opportunity to know something about It. -I have not only taken the lead in endeavoring to secure the passage of this bill but have given 10 times more labor to it than all of the othor members of the House whose constituents-are interested in Its passage am the only member of the House who has taken an active Interest in se curing its passage. I have worked for it In season and out of season, night and day, made myself disagreeable to both Speakers, and to nearly every member of the committee. I have gone to other leading members of Congress, friends of the Administration, everywhere, where I thought I could elicit help. Remember I did not come to Congress under" the prom lso, of passing this bill. It was never heard from in my campaign when I -was elected. I did not know its .condition. I took it up because I believed It was right and Just and ought to be passed, and not as a matter to secure political favor. Now, how does It happen that when you want to indulge In threats, you se lect the only friend the bill vhas In the House of Representatives as "the one to be made the center of your attacks? Tho other men who have taken no interest in it, who have not cared a continental what became of It, are" not being threat ened. No one Is disturbing them. Why do you single me out, the only one who Is earnestly and sincerely your friend, as tho one to threaten? Why do you call my good faith in question In reference to a bill for which I have put in 10 times the labor that I have for any other bill in Congress?- Do you think that is vrise? Do you think it Is manly and fair and good treatment? Do you think it is going to stimulate my energy? Do you think I am going to be whipped on to thi3 mat ter? Do you think It -will increase my In terest and earnestness for the support of the bill -to be threatened by the very men w.nom i. am striving with all my might and main to serve? If you are going to select some one to threaten, why don't you single out somebody who Is doing nothing, and ought to help, or who Is opposing -when he ought to favor? Do you suppose that I can pass that bill alone? Do you suppose that any 20 men, or 20 men, or 100 men In Congress, can pass. It alone? Do you realize that the House consists" of 360 members? That there are from 12,000 to .20,GG0 bills pend ing before Congress, and which all these men are eager to have passed. Do you know that not one bill in 20 goes through? You refer to my pledges made at the meeting in Portland. I happen to have the speech I then made In writing. I made no pledge to "you. or to any one else, except of my earnest and cordial support of tho measure, and it has had that every moment that I have been in Congress. I stated that I believed the bill would be passed during the present Congress, and I now believe that it win. But I pledged you no support of Con gress, and any man that would pledge Congress for the support of any measure would be an idiot or a gross fraud. Ton say that unless the bill is passed before election, I shall be defeated. Very well, my impression is tfca it will not be passed by the time election comes. I may be defeated. I don't' think so.

Woodard, Clarke & Co.'3 window a gold brick that came from the Bohemia district, about 200 miles south cast of Portland. Now, I consider that a good move. If all the mines that are producing In the state would bring or send their gold bullion to be exhibited in Port land, It would' be the means of doing a great deal of good. The Blue River sec tion, just south of Portland, Is produc ing bullion every week that should be sent here before being sent to the mint. I refer to the Lucky Boy mine. Eastern Oregon Is producing thousands of dollars everj" month in pure gold that Is sent di rectly to the mint, and that no one in the City of Portland knows anything aoout: consequently, they have no confidence In the mines of Oregon. It is not uncom mon to hear business men make the re mark that they don't know that thero is any good producing mining properties in this state, as they don t see anything in the shape of gold or bullion to give them the confidence. I know It costs something to sends the gold here before sending it to the mint, but it will pay in the long run, as It will inspire confidence In our Ore gon mines. Thousands of dollars are sent every year to the mint from Oregon that our capItallsU' know nothing of. Now, If the gold bara that are being taken out of the Lucky 'Boy mine, on Blue River, could be shown up each month In Portland, with the output of Southern Oregon and the Sumpter and Baker City district, I think we would soon find that Portland capital would be convincedand it would Steamship Co.
