California Buyinjj Oregon Cheese.
There will be an all-around drop In the
butter market Monday morning. The city
creamer lea III lower the. price of their
best grades to Jo cents and on Fron t jit reet
there will be a corresponding scaling down
of quotations. Production Is increasing at
11 good rate and In the commisnton district,
especially, supplies are accumulating. As
the California market has steadied. It ia
probable the now local price will hold good
for some time.
The egg market continued Arm yesterday.
With most of the sales on the street Ht
.T" cents. Shipping " orders , were light.
Slow buying by the- local trado Is ex
pected in the flrst half of the week, which
may lead to a shading of prices, unless the
Sound elt les ren e w t h e I r o rd ers.
Poultry, especially hens, weakened yes
terday, due to a light demand from the
large reiailera. Some stocks on the street
were cleaned up at 14 cents.
The chcesH market la firmer. Pan Fran-t-lsco
is buying heavily and Seattle Is ex
pected lo be In the market soon. The
Northern eti les are about cleaned up on
Fastern cheese and are asking for prices
here.
BF.TTF.R FKKtJNO IV OATS MARKET
;ood Hemand From California for Barley
and Wheat.
The calling for bids by the Oovernment
an e0i tons of oats has created a better
feeling In the market. Price have not been
affected, but In wmc quarters It Is be-U-ved
an adance Is coming. Valley hold
ers are shipping most of their supplies to
California, where, better prlcea are avail
able. The demand for oats from the Fast
had ceased, but shipments on late purchases
are still going forward.
There Is some demand from Northern and
Southern California points for barley aiul
in view of thf lightness of supplies here,
I he market I? In a very tlrm position.
About ihe only inquiry for wheat at pres
ent ia from California and the demand
Ctom thst quarter is urxent enough to give
t : .e m trkot a tlrm tone, even in the absence
ot expert buying. Farmer are not forcing
av. tl.sng on the market.

CALIFOilJt FRUIT CROPS
GOOD YIELDS OF ATIj KIXDS
ARE EXPECTED.
Iargst Apricot Crop in Years.
Some Shortage In Karly Peaches,
but Others Doing Well.
The California Fruit Distributors hava is
sued from the Sacramento office a general
letter to the trade on condition nmt r.rn-
pects for the deciduous fruit crops hroueh-
out California as they exist at the present
time. The letter follows:
Tha past Winter has been an unusually fa
vorable one for deciduous fruit, and while
the rainfall has been somewhat below normal
there has been a sufficiency In all dtetricta,
and crops of all varltiea of deciduous fruits
will mature nicely, even though we have no
more rain.
While it la a little early to state definitely,
the prospect at the present writing Is that
the season will on up about the same time
ae last year.
Cherries Indications are for a good crop
of the 'early varieties of cherries and the
Black Tartarian and Royal Anne yield will
be exceptionally good. This remains true
in all cherry districts.
Apricots The apricot crop will be one of
the largest we have had1 in a number of years.
Peaches While there will be a little
short age in the very, early varieties of
peaches, auch a Alexanders and Hales, the
prospects are for a good crop of all othtr
varieties of peaches in all districts In the
state.
Plums and prunes All varieties of plume
and prunes are looking fine at the present
writing and with tha danger of frost prac
tically paaeed we can eafeZy predict a large
crop of all varieties of this fruit.
Bartlett pears Are ahowing up well and
there will be a good yield of this fruit.
In summing up the above report j-ou will
see we are looking forward to shipping from
California this season a good crop of all va
rieties of fruit from all districts.

SAYS THEY ARE MARRIED
Society .fournal of Turin KovoaJa tlic
bagau-Uoiild Secret.
PARIS, April 18. The Cri 'do Paris,
which prfe-pses to chronlcln the doings
of the fashionable set of Paris, insists
in its issue of today that the marriage
of Madame Anna Gould, formerly the
wife of Count Hon! de Castellane, and
Prince Helie d Sagan, already has
taken place. The paper announced some
time ago that this marriage had been
celebrated secretly In Germany. Joda
We are now in a pnaition-f '. 'Tnizjlota
it- lnfrr.1u;An Tkl . 7.
ceieDrateu secretly in a iit.'brrwn on
our Kastern frontier. When in New
York Mme. Gould informed her family
that her wedding already was an accom
plished fact and this Is why the mem
bers of her family so quickly assented.
We would add that for certain legal
reasons, which delicacy prevents ua
from disclosing, this rnarriago can be
broken.
"This possibly greatly console the
families which have been so crushed by
the marriage, but we hope that they
will not by any rude process trouble the
happiness of the young couple, who, dur
ing their sojourn in New York were so
much together.'
Continuing, the paper adds that Mme.
Gould has resolved irrevocably to break
with the past. She is selling out her
celebrated wine cellar, a merchant of
Bordeaux having already purchased $16,
000 worth of her stock.
SHERIFF SUED FOR REWARD
Lets Prisoners Kst-ape and Detec
tives Hold Him Responsible.
SPOKANE. April 18. A novel suit for
$12,000 from Sheriff Shoemaker, of Helena.
Mont., has been started by Defectives
McPhee, Macdonald and Briley of Spo
kane. These detectives captured Ed
Frankhauser and Charles McDonald, who
held up the Oriental Limited train at
Rondo, Mont., last September, securing
$40,000. The robbers escaped from the
Helena Jail a few weeks ago and the (.e
tectives hold that Sheriff Shoemaker,
having thus caused them to lose the re
ward offered, should, pay it himself, and
are suing him and his bondsmen.

EXCESS OF FUNDS
New York Has More Money
Than Can Be Used.
GOLD EXPORTS RESULT
Surplus Carried by t learing-Honse
Hank 1 Largest Keported In
Over Ten Years Gain
In the Tast Week.
NEW YORK. April 1 The Financier wilt
ay: The aurplua reserva of the New York
Clearing House hanks, according to the
atatement of their actual condition lu"d
Futurrtay Is $.i3.25ft,0."0. an Increase of
04M.O75 since the last previous report. Tnis
la the highest surplus reserve reported in
over 10 years and Is due to the continued
heavy remittances of ca.fh from the interior
and. to a lesser extent, to the losses which
the Treasury la making to the banks on
account of currency deficiencies.
The gain In cash made by the Associated
Banks last week waa l.n:t7.100. Loans de
creased Jl 2.1 Alt, 3i). and deposits rose f 7, .VW, -1
0O. This was -on the report of actual con
rt it tons. The Htatemeirt of average, covering
e)x days operations, showed materially dif
ferent figures, the average Irtcreaae in de
posits alone having been 20,ooo,oK). but the
actual flgurea reveal tne true Condition of
the banks, the old system of averages being
miftieaumg in this respect.
The continued flow of money from the
Interior, and the accumulation of cnah which
the hanks are making fron other sources
Is not a helpful a sign as might be imag
ined, for the reason that it nhowa an excea.i
of liquid funds above the needs of business,
and tbe exports of gold whtrn began laat
week are a logical consequence of the sur
plus of cash at this renter. Just when
further withdrawals of nubile rleoosits In
banks by the Government will be made Is
un.-ertain, but with the losses which th'!
Treasury . in reporting, for reasons already
outlined, a recall of public deposits would
be regnrded very complacently by the bank.
Indications of any return flow of money
from New York to the Interior to meet the
tiprlng croc-- requirement ar still wanting,
but thW movement cannot be much longer
delayed, although its volume Is problematic
Money rates In New York are now down to
those of Kuropran renters, and very narrow
fluctuations will increase tho exports of gold
or stop It.
The banks and tru-t companies not report
ing through tho clearing-house made sub
stantial gains in all Items last week, due
In part to the inclusion of the rigurea of one
of the failed Brooklyn trust companies which
has resumed busings. The actual cash re
serve of the clearing-house banks is now
2.2I per cent, that of the trust compnnfe-i
30.4 per cent and of the state banks. 27. 0a
per cent.
The statement of clearing-house banks
for the week shows that the banks hold
$!!. ft 7 3. 4 l!f. more than requirements of the
IT. per oont reserve rule. This Is an In
crease of $n.707.7r,o in the proportionate cash
reserve as compared with last week.

EEL FISHERMEN SUFFER
lessees of Fishing Rights on Lough
Xeagh Given Monopoly.
DUBLIN-. April IS (Special.) Atten
tion has been called to the hard case of a
number of Irish fisher folk residing near
Lough Neagh. It seems that from time
immemorial they and their forefathers
have been accustomed to earn their liveli
hood by catching eels from the lough,
and now, by a decision of the Irish Land
Judge's Court if it is not reversed on
appeal they will no longer be able to
"scoop the eels.
Lord Shaftesbury Is the owner of the
fishing rights of the lough, and he has
leased to one Edward Armstrong O'Neill
and others the eel fisheries. It Is the les
sees who have obtained a declaration of
title to the exclusive right of fishing for
eels. When it is stated that there are
3000 people who live entirely by this in
dustry. It will be seen that the injunction
Is a serious matter for them. They con
tend the lough is an inland sea, free to
every subject of the realm, and they ap
peal for funds to enable them to carry the
case to a higher court.
POLE INSULTS. KAISER
Paints Picture That Salon of Inde
pendents Cannot Exhibit.
PARIS. April IS. (Special.) The
"Salon of Independents," which knows
no jury and admits any work which
anyone may choose to send in, has
just opened an exhibition of 6237 oil
paintings. This appalling number of
canvases was rettuced a few hours
later, but, unfortunately, by only six.
They were removed, not for artistic
reasons, which would have applied
just as well to a good many other ex
hibits, but for reasons of international
decorum.
A Polish artist. M. Boleslas Blegos,
who formerly was a strangely eccen
tric and gruesome sculptor, has taken
recently to political paintings, in which
he displays the same want of taste.
Last year he showed a "Jiu-Jitsu

Kussfa SiippreHfing Kurds I ndcr an
Agreement Ucgardiiig Persia.
ST. PKTKftSHCRfi, April 18. The
Foreign Office is keenly interested in
Uussfa's littTe frontier war in Persia.
It is the first occasion to arise for
the active application of Russia's
rights under the Anglo-Russian agree
ment to endeavor to preserve order 1n
Northern Persia. The operations them
selves are considered of minor impor
tance, and they will quickly come to an
end so soon as the subsidence of
floods permit the movement of Rus

Kussia counts upon the support of
Great Britain and no interference on
the part of any other power.

Russians Send More Troops Against
Frontier Brigands.
TIFLIS, April is. The situation on
the Persian frontier arising from the
activity of bands of marauding Kurds
has not materially improved. The Per
sian bandits again concentrated In
force yesterday and renewed their at
tack against Belcsuvar. The Russians
countered with energy, and their artil
lery bombarded several villages in
which the brigands had taken shelter.
The Russian commander has received
orders to disperse and entirely wipe
out the bands. Reinforcements are be
ing sent In to him from Baku and
Lenkoran. The expedition that went in
from Baku found Its flanks to be men
aced by the brigands. It therefore oc
cupied points in Persian territory in
order to equip adequately the line of
communication In addition to tire
losses previously reported, the Russians
have had- seven soldiers killed. The

FAR FROM PICTURE BOOK
'Flora of Walitt cton" Merely Ir
Botanical Report.
ORBflONIANT NKWfl BU Ft RAIT, Wash
ington, April K). Representative Hum
phrey has secur.-d a limite'd. reprint of
tho "Flora of Washington," a Govern
ment botanical report, for which there
has been considerable demand. The book
is one couched in purely scientific term
and of absolutely no value to a person
not familiar with botany, and for this
reason Mr. Humphrey intends to confine
the .distribution to schools and other in-
stitutions whieh can make proper use of
the document.
Many demands have come from unin
formed persons who exp.ete( to receive
a beautifully illustrated work, filled with
colored pictures of all the wild Rowers
native to the Kvergreen state. The hook
is nothing of the sort. To any but a
botanist it is a dry. uninteresting docu
ment that would find its way into tha
Tiasto-baskct.
