THE SUNDAY- OREGOXIAN, PORTLAND, JTJXE 23, 1907. , 43 FRUIT SELLS WELL Big Week Is Promised in Trade on Front Street. COUNTRY DEMAND STRONG Only Frar Wholesalers Hare Is That Supplies May Be Inadequate. High Prlce Are Not Objected To. The coming week promises to be an un asnally active one In the fruit trade, the weather permitting. Wholesalers that make a specialty of shipping business al ready have a large number of country orders booked and are assured tof a holi day trade that will break all previous records. The local Fourth of July trade, which will follow, will without doubt be the largest in the history of the produce district. The only thing the jobbers fear Is the .scarcity of certain lines of Sum mer fruit. It Is difficult, to make up carlots of the principal varieties of Cali fornia fruit. This keeps prices at a high level, but consumers do not com plain of this fact. Yesterday was banana day on Kront street. Eight cars arrived. b sIt of them were too ripe to please the re ceivers. With the better demand, how ever they will probably all be disposed of. Some early freestone peaches of the Triumph variety were received and of fered at J1.B0 per box. Other varieties were quoted around $1.25. California peaches are going to remain high this Beason. as there are not enough to make up carlots and all shipments will have to come through by express. Loganberries are coming forward more freely and average $1.75 per crate. A few strawberries are still to be seen and there will be a few shipments next weeta which will wind up the season. Wax beans are arriving more plenti fully and are quoted lower at 839c per pound. Cucumbers are also In good sup ply and range from EOc to $1 per dozen according to size. BITTER COMING IN MORE FREELY. Front Street Is Better Supplied, but Prices Hold Steady. Butter is now arriving on Front street more freely than was the case earlier In the week, as some of the outside cream eries have found their nortnern outlet closed. The heavier receipts, however, work off and prices remain stationary. The city creameries report an active movement that prevents any accumula tion. Eggs were quoted at a wide range on Front street, sales being made all the way from22c to Mc with the bulk of the business at 23c to 23ftc. Suppllss were small and the demand very strong. Poultry, as has been the case most of the week, was slow and easy. GERMANY NOW SHORT OF PRUNES. Faclfla Coast Product Required to Make l"P i European Deficiency. Trade advices received from Hamburg, Germany, say that the market will re quire a considerable quantity of prunes to make up the deficiency In the commg European crop. The letter said: "This market Is very closely cleaned up on old crop prunes and Importers are much dis turbed over the outlook so far as stocks are concerned. We do not look for more than two-thirds of a crop in Bosnia. and Servla. Some of the larger interests here are already buying for Import from the New York market, and cables sent to the Pacific Coast bring back the ad vice that practically all the old prunes of desired sizes are held in New York." WOOI. SALES rN OPEN MARKET. Recent Purchases Made at Heppner and Arlington. A considerable quantity of wool is be ing disposed of In the open market in Eastern Oregon. The Heppner Qasette s-eporta the following purchases ma4e during the week by Frank TJee: F. D. Bowman. Fox Valley. 6779 pounds at ISc; John Marcus, of Mounment.

STOCK MARKET STAGNANT Feeble and Inconsistent Drift of Prices Bank Statement Causes a Slight Recovery, Wriich, How ever, Is Not Maintained. NEW YORK, ' June 22. The stock market was almost at a standstill to day. .Feeble as was the drift of prices It was Inconsistently downwards and upwards without any apparent reason. There was a slight recovery after the appearance of the bank statement, which proved less unfavorable than the forecasts. The loan contraction helped to scale down the deposits' and the reserve requirements, and the cash decrease was much smaller than was anticipated. It was taken for granted, however, that the week's export of gold figured In the averages for a small proportion of their real effect, leaving that effect to be transferred over Into next week's statement. This expecta tion left a bad impression. The engagement of gold for London was Increased to $1,750,000 today In time for the outgoing steamer. For eign exchange rates were strongly maintained today, especially for cable transfers, in spite of the supply of that form of remittance supplied by the gold shipments. The urgent demand for cable remittances was attributed to the approach of the London stock-market settlement, regarding which some anxiety is felt in London. The sus tained strength of foreign exchange caused a conviction that the gold ex port Is to be extended next week. The weekly reports by the mercan tile agencies showed some Improve ment In retail trade conditions, caused by the more seasonable weather, but the stock market was unresponsive to this. A statement from Washington that the report of the Interstate Commerce Commission on the Harriman investiga tion would be presented by July 1 and would be considered by the Attorney General with a'view to legal proceed ings accentuated the stagnation In the market. The slight recoveries after the bank statement were lost and the clos ing tone was easy. Total sales of bonds, par value, $220,000. ' CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.' Closing Bales. High. Lew.

CAPTURES HUGE TURTLE Fisherman Takes 1700-Pound Trav eler Off San Diego. SAN DIHGO, Cal., June 22. One of the puzzles of the sea came to the surface yesterday, when a gigantic sea turtle was capered by Julius Sollssa. a fisher ntan. - in whose net lt had become en tangled. The monster weighs 1792 pounds, and Its shell Is 5 feet 2 inches from tip to tip. On its back Bomewhat plainly Is burned or carved this inscription: "British ship Sea Bride, August 12, 1881,' S south, 86 west. If found, please notify Thomas Fletcher, Brawley Road, Blving ton, England." It would appear from this that the turtle was captured 26 years ago In the South Pacific, and that lt was released after ths lettering bad been burned in it's shell. SHORT CROP YIELDS Rust Appears in Wheat Fields of Missouri. SOUTHWEST HARVEST SLOW These Are the Factors That Strength en the Chicago Market Corn . and Oats Prices Are Also Sent TJpwards. CHICAGO, June 22. The wheat mar ket displayed considerable strength to day, sdesplte the fact that trading was light and Included little outside de mand. At .he close, wheat was s4c higher, corn was lj?c advanced, oats were up H9sc and provisions were higher. The wheat market opened quiet and steady, despite the fact that Liverpool cables were lower and the weather in this country was highly favorable for the new crop. Many speculators were firmly of the opinion that the market had become somewhat oversold in an ticipation of the lower prices that were expected to follow the strike of the teiegraph operators. Shorts were ac tive buyers on this account at frequent intervals throughout the. session. A good demand for cash wheat was re ported from the East, and there were additional claims of short yields In n.ansas and reports of the appearance of rust in Missouri. The harvesting of the crop in the Southwest is being delayed, and lt is believed that serious damage will result If a much greater delay is made. September wheat opened a shade lower to a shade higher at 94948C, sold between 94 and 95tsc and closed strong at 9596c. The corn market was strong all day, partly in sympathy with wheat and also because of the large sales for ex port yesterday. The exceptionally fine growing weather for the crop was ig nored as a bearish factor. The crop in many sections is reported as mak ing up lost time with great rapidity. September corn opened a shade lower at 6314c. sold between 53 hie and 53c and closed strong at 53 He. Green bug reports were numerous in the oats market and as a result prices were strong all day. Trading was of unusually large proportions, the ma jority of local speculators being on the buying side, and there was also a good demand from investors. The green bug reports come from Indiana and many from Central. Illinois, west of the Illinois River. Offerings throughout the day were light and Inadequate to the demand. September oats opened Ho lower to a shade higher at 33'i33c. sold between 38e "and o9c, and closed strong at 3838c. The trade In provisions was light and prices were steady on covering by shorts and in sympathy with the grain market. At the close September pork was 7 He higher at $16.90.

No Account Taken of Heavy Gold Exports Daring the Week In. -crease in Deposits. NEW YORK. Juno 22. The Financier says: "The official statement of the New York Associated Banks was a most re markable exhibition. It failed to re flect the losses to the banks by the ex ports of gold to Europe during the week or the average of such exports that occurred in the closing days of the previous week. Moreover, the statement apparently took no account of the losses to the banks through sub treasury operations. Instead of show ing a loss of more than $6,000,000, rep resenting exports of gold, which should have disclosed today a loss of more than $4,000,000. after deducting from the aggregate traceable loss the gain on the interbank movement and through receipts of new gold, the state ment recorded a decrease of only $710,600 cash. The . deposits fell oft $7,190,300, which amount was greater by about $1,000,000 than the contraction of loans, plus .ne loss of cash and therefore the statement did not make a good proof. The reserve against general deposits decreased . $1,822,575, deducting from which the loss of cash as above left $1,111,975 as the Increase In surplus reserve to $5,626,600. Computed on ths basis of eposits less tuose of $31,734, 900 public funds, the surplus is $3,660, 325. Loans were contracted of $5,403,100, which probably represents approxi mately iae average reduction due to stock market liquidation during the week. It may be observed that the re sults shown by the statement are en tirely unreconcilable with those looked for from the week's directly traceable movements of money. The statement of the Clearing House banks tor the week follows: Loans $1,134,352,800 $5,403,100 Deposits 1,10, 982,000 7,190,300 Circulation .... 50,434,600 42,800 Legal tenders..

HEAVY FINEF0R EDITORS Czar Crushes Hostile Criticism of Dissolution of Parliament. ST. PETERSBURG, June 22.
