HOG PRODUHIif LESS
General Declines Announced in
Provision Market.
EFFECTIVE ON MONDAY
Smoked Beef Advances Sharply, and
Kreeh Meats Generally Show an
Upward Tendency Country
Shipments Are Heavy.
A number of changes In provision
prices will go Into effect Monday, the
first changes to be made in the local
list since April 8. Hams, bacon and
dry salt jcured meats will all be quoted
lower, also compound lard. This Is the
usual course of these markets at this
season of the year. On the other hand,
smoked dried beef products, owing to
the seasonable demand and the higher
cost of the raw material and jobbing
prices of the various cuts of fresh
meats, will also be advanced In ac
cordance with the higher prices ruling
on livestock at the yards.
The changes are the most extensive
that have been made In local prices
this season. . The decline In hams
ranges from cent in the three prin
cipal sizes to cent on picnics, and
one cent on boiled ham. The best
grade of bacon Is reduced V4 cent;
choice, standard and English 1 cent
and the cheaper grade 1 cents. A
-cent decline is made In all sizes of
compound lard. Dry salt cured meats
are reduced ' cent per pound. In
smoked beef products, knuckles, sets,
lnsides and outsldes will go up 1 cent
per pound, while whole tongues will
each go 10 cents higher.
The new list on fresh beef cuts will
show an advance of H cent on cows,
heifers and steers, while loins, ribs,
rounds and chucks will be cent
higher. Spring lambs are as yet un
changed, but a decline of 1 cent will
be made In ewes.
The dressed meat market on Front
street has ruled firm all the week, and
although receipts have been large, the
demand has been strong enough to take
all of them at full prices. The only
Indications of weakness are in Spring
lambs and mutton, which are arriving
more freely and from now on will be
very plentiful. The livestock market
has continued very firm during the
week.
WOOl, RALES IN BAKER COUNTY.
Seventeen Cents Paid for the Walter tore
Clip.
Very few sales have yet been reported
in the Eastern Oregon wool market. In
addition to those already announced in
these columns. It Is learned that the
"Walter Love clip on1 the Lower Powder
River, amounting to 40.000 pounds was
bought bv Miles Lee at lie per pouna.
limbing is progressing well In that sec
tion and It is estimated from reports
from the different camps that the In
crease In the flocks of Baker County this
season will be about 100 per cent.
The Dallas Observer. In commenting on
recent transactions in the mohair mar.
ket, gives the followlngs as the figures
at which the Polk I'onnty monair pqpis
have been sold since 197:
1P!7 21H centsll03. . , JSS cents
1S98 3014 centslW4 34 cents

1900 19 centall!! 30U cents
tnoi 22 centsjl907 304 cents
192. 25 cents!
It will be seen from the foregoing fig
ures that the average price for the last
11 years has been 2D4c or three-quarters
of a cent less than was received this sea
son.
STRAWBERRY RECEIPTS ARE HEAVY.
Shipment Is In Good Condition and Sells
Well at Steady Prices.
Receipts of strawberries yesterday
were the heaviest of the season. f"tfty
crates reached Front street, and, being
In first-class condition, the entire lot
cleaned up at $3 iff 3.50 per crate. The
first cherries of the year arrived from
California and sold at $3 per box. Two
cars of oranges were received.
The street was swamped with Cali
fornia peas, and in spite of a sharp
drop in prices, but little impression
was made on the supply. Asparagus is
coming in freely- from Walla Walla
and other sections of the Northwest
and moves well. A half car of Florida
tomatoes, the second shipment of this
size, arrived in the morning. They
were In first-class keeping condition
and were quoted at $4.26 4. B0 per
crate.
BUTTER QUOTED AT VARIOUS PRICES.
Eggs Offered I-owpr In Large Lots Chickens
Very Firm.
The butter market on Front street
was steady on the best brands, but
exceedingly weas on oiners. wnicn ac
counts for the wide range In prices.
Some of the city creameries were
steady at the former price, though it
was reported others were shading.
The egg market was weak and dull,
Current receipts In large lots were
offered at 18 cents, but for single
cases, candled. 19 cents was asked.
Poultry was- scarce and almost nom
inal. The strong local and shipping
demand Insures the continuance of
high prices as long as tha present
shortage lasts.

TONE IS BETTER
Stock Dealings Small and Con
gested in Few Favorites.
BANK STATEMENT GOOD
Much Speculative Activity Is Being
Diverted to the W heat Market.
Money Is Still Further
Relaxed.
NEW YORK. April 27. There were
no discernible operations of Importance
In the stock market today, although
the toner was somewhat Improved. The
scanty dealingrs were largely concen
trated, as usual lately, in half a dozen
stocks.
The bank statement proved more
favorable- than had been anticipated,
and this had some helpful effect on
stocks, although the prevailing ease of
the money market detracted from the
Importance attached to the showing
of the banks. Loans were reduced to
a "small extent, showing the sub
sidence apparently of the heavy trans
fer of loans from Interior to New York
banks which has been forcing an ex
pansion of New York bank loans for
several weeks past. The cash item
showed a small- gain in place of the
expected decrease. Abroad, the Lon
don market wis reported to be affect
ed by the prospect of a further heavy
withdrawal of gold for shipment 'to
Paris on Monday.
Considerable speculative activity is
being diverted to the wheat market
and strength continued today in that
cereal. Some significance was at
tached to the signs of strong demand
for New York real estate. Indicated by
the course of sules in progrest, and in
ferences were suggestive of a laree
available supply of capital seeking in
vestment in that Held. '
The bond market, however, has been
appreciably firmer, in the. past two
aays. xotai sales, par value, $503,000.
operations In the stock market this
week were narrow and professional, indi
cative ,-of an indecisive condition of
speculative - sentiment. A conspicuous
feature of the week has been the further
material relaxation in money markets at
all money centers. The Imperial Bank
of Germany, the Bank of The Netherlands
ana the Bank of England have reduced
their official discount rates successively
and these Institutions, with the Bank of
France, all made returns showing the sub
stantial strengthening of the banking situ
ation in tnelr respective territories. In
the TJnlted States money rates have con
tinued to recede.
The country's foreign trade for the nina
months of the fiscal year -shows a mate
rial reduction of the balance in our favor
compared with the previous year. Not
only had the excess of merchandise ex
ports declined $44,000,000, and of silver ex
ports $7,831,600, but the excess of gold im
ports for the same period has increased
$66,957,000.
Of our own banking: position. th' de
tailed analysis of the reports of all th
rvauonai Banks or March 22 has given
much food for discussion. Outside of
New York loans are heavily exnanded
and reserves are at a low stage and the
centers . at which- these conditions are
most pronounced give occasion for sus
picion of a large speculative element in
the employment of cedlts in real Mtm
and other forms of promotion.
me outcome of the comine crons la re
garded as of crucial Importance to the
satisfactory working out of the financial
situation of the country. There Is common
agreement that the present condition of
the Winter wheat cron is nnHufo,
and dependent cfn future Improvement for
a. isvuraoie outcome. The late Spring
offers the likelihood of delav fnr nrw
crops. This makes a material burden
uiu me stoca market.
The bond market itself has been very
dull and hpaw i tn k-i., V.r'
bonds are unchanged on call for the week.

DON'T DO IT
'Any person going about crying hard times panics tight money dull markets, etc. is
but depreciating the opportunities and resources of Oregon, a most wonderful state, of un
limited wealth, and natural advantages.
Remember, now, that element which follows these panic cranks and all-around pessimists
will in the next few years get badly left. The only kind of hard times coming are hard times
to the evil-doer.
"Whyghould the grand stand plays between grafter and reformer, walking delegate and
corporation, Wall street Bull and Bear, the big stick and the desirable or "undesirable" citi
zen, the Thaw case or the Silver Thaw Telephone Company disturb the even tenor of the
real people who till the soil, furnish the manuafcturers articles which clothe and feed the
real people of the real world?
Captains of honest industry work for motives beyond money consideration, and that
SUCCESS. You will never hear this class of busy people crying hard times, knocking the
Vountry and its future, or trying to disturb prosperous conditions because of the personal
differences of a few.
If you believe in your state and city and in yourself, do not be led astray by hard-times
tAlk. Be conservative, but combine it with enterprise. Live within your income and dare to
do right. Hard times or the devil himself cannot harm you if you are industrious and live in
the State of Oregon. Make prudent investments, either in choice inside income real estate or
well-selected public utility bonds, which give you a steady income in good or bad times, and
where your money is secured beyond any possibility of loss.
I recommend to the conservative investor Home Telephone Stock or Bonds. It is a pub
lic utility based on the wants of the people, and is a hard-times proposition absolutely; in
good times it flourishes in hard times it thrives, because the harder the times the more the
people are obliged to talk to make money. The more you talk, the more you contribute fo
the earnings of a modern telephone plant.
Invest your money at home, where you can see it-grow.
A student of investments will never be led astray, by anything some few may say. "Doubts
make traitors of ns all, and oft we lose the good we might attain by fearing to attempt."

Although Prices Are Lower at
Chicago.
DECLINE IS DUE TO SELLING
Contest Between the BulLs and Bears.
Reports of Cloudy Weather in
Kansas Have but Slight
Effect on Market.
CHICAGO. Aorll 27. The wheat mar
ket today was again a reflection of the
weather, although the usual weeK-ena
profit-taking: held prices in check and the
July option closed with a net loss of
c. July oats closed a shade lower ana
provisions without material change.
The drouth in -Kansas continued today
to furnish the bulls with encouragement
to buv and to influence shorts-to cover.
but the profit-taking was sufficient to
prevent an advance. The maket was
only slightly Influenced by reports 01
cloudy weather in Kansas and by an ad
vance In Liverpool. July wheat opened
gc to Wtc higher at 83c to Mc.
Thereafter the price showed the attitude
of the contending sides, one believing In
hltrher prices; owing to weather conditions
and the other believing that the maxi
mum of prices had toeen reached. The re
sult of the combat was that July was
forced, downward to 83c. The close, with
July c lower at S3i6?c. indicated a
preponderance of selling, but no weak
ness In the tone.
Profit-taking was the primary Impulse
governing the corn market, although
Texas reported drouth. Oklahoma like
wise was upon the bull Bide, advising that
corn was being rapidly fed. July sold be
tween 49c and 0O140 and closed at 49c.
May closed at 60c.
There was an excellent demand for
oats, but considerable selling on a fore
cast of rain kept priceu about stationary.
July sold 'between 41i(41o and 42o and
closed a shade lower at 4141c.
The provisions market was very dull and
closed 21 2-5c lower. .
