TIJE SUXDAY OREGOMAX, PORTLAXD, JUNE 28, 1908.
CHEESE WILL GO UP
Market Sik!d6nly Turns Strong
:, ;ahd Active.
MAY ADVANCE WEDNESDAY
Heavy Ruiiir Greatly Keduees Lo
eal Storks and Available Sup
ply at Iacfories Is Exhaust
ed Firmer in East.
The pr?t intrrostinfr feature in the pro
duce trade yesterday v.aa the firmness
ihoR-n In the cheese market. A short time
.po it looked as If lower prices were in
evitable as the heavy receipts made a top
heavy market, but conditions have changed
rather suddenly, and now, Instead, of. a de
rline, everything points to an advance. The
rife will probably amount to cent and It
Is expected to ko Into effect on July 1.
Buying: orders were heavy yesterday,
not only on local account, but also from
outside markets. Seattle and Tacoma are
Buying more liberally than for some time
past and other points In the Nortn are se
miring' cheese here. Local supplies are
slcaning up and It 1b probable that by the
middle of the week the largest handlers
will have but little to offer. Advices from
Tillamook yesterday were that the supply
i vail able, there was exhausted. One of the
principal factors In strengthening the Ore
gon market has been the advance that has
taken place In the East.

Cantaloupe Also Helling at Unusually Low
ITices.
Front street Is heavily stocked with Cali
fornia peaches and they are- selling at an
unusually Inw price for this time of year,
(10 to 00 cents a box. They are small, as is
to be expected of the early varieties, but
ere otherwise of good quality, and tt Is a
matter of surprise that they do not move
better. Home canners seem to be overlook
ing an opportunity to get very fair fruit at
an exceedingly low price. The supply was
Increased yesterday by another carload, but
the Jobbers refused to take them, alleging
the small size of the fruit. Another car is
due Monday morning. Apricots were In
light supply and higher.
Cantaloupes are also going at ridiculous
prices, yesterday's quotations being 75 cents
to $1.5 per crate. Even at these figures the
movement was limited. The uncertain
weather has operated against trade all the
week.
Nearly all kinds of vegetables are In good
supply, beans and peas especially. The sea
son for old potatoes Is over and the market
is weak and nominal for the few lots re
maining. Among yesterday's arrivals was a ship
ment ..of -Jarxc Honolulu pineapples, which
wero offered at $4. Some alligator pears
were also received and quoted at $3.50 per
dozen.

Factors In the Sugur Market.
The governing influence in the sugar mar
ket at present, according to & New York
authority Is the adjustment of consumption
to the production and what Is to be the
extent of the reduction In the supply. A
consumption equal to that of last year will
bring supplies down and higher . prices
..would be warranted. But we must wait and
see. The market needs assurance, through
an Increase In the present demand, that the
consumption Is equal to that of last year;
that the big fruit crops will counterbalance
the general business depression; It needs as
surance that the European markets won't
give way under the influence of favorable
beet-growing weather or the fear of the
BOO.0O0 tons Russian exports after Septem
ber 1 to the United Kingdom.
Better Tone in E;rg Market.
The egg market exhibits a steadier tone,
us a result of lighter arrivals, but the
lemand is not sufficient as yet to lift
prices. Retailers continue to complain of
musty eggs, which Is attributed to country
shippers holding back supplies too long.
The poultry market was active yesterday
and all the receipts cleaned up. There was
a strong demand for hens around 12 cents.
The butter movement was good and pre
vious prices were quoted all along the line.
General Advance In Provision List.
A new provision price list will go into
efTect Monday morning, quoting general ad
vances In smoked meats. Hams of all sizes
and shoulders will be quoted 1 cent higher.
The advance in breakfast bacon Is -cent
and there will be a similar rise In dry salt
and smoked clears and backs.

BONDS ARE FIRMER
But Net Changes in Stock
'Prices.Are Small.
MARKET IS VERY SLUGGISH
Probability , of Early Call From
Treasury Department for Another
targe Installment of Gov
ernment Deposits.
NEW YORK. June 27. The . dull and
sluggish stock market continued to show tho
reluctance of professional operator to fol
low transactions far from a fixed level of
prices. Mr. Morgan's optimistic outgiving be
fore his departure for Europe brought prices
up somewhat from the declines caused earlier
In the week in sympathy with the break In
the Rock Island securities. The average level
of the market having returned near to last
Saturday', closing level, the movement prac
tically ceased today. Net changes on the
week will be found to be insignificant, except
in special cases. ...
There was nothing in today's news to stir
the market from its apathy. Bankers are
discussing the probability of an early call
from the Treasury Department for return of
another large Installment of Government de
posits, owing to the continued heavy deficit
in Government .revenues. The money . market
gives evidence of such redundancy, however,
that littl. attention is paid to anything
threatening a reduction of supplies.
Some curiosity is shown over pofaible further
demands for gold from Berlin and Paris after
the tarn of the half year. London reports
large offering of Berlin paper in that money
market in spite of the relaxation of discounts
at the German Capital. Paris also is ex
pected to take next Monday's supply of gold
in the London market. Nevertheless, money
is expected to. become plethoric in New York
after the turn of the half year.
The bond market today- -was appreciably
firmer, though dull, and this may represent
demand for reinvestment of July 1 disburse
ments. Weather conditions of the day were favor
able for the crop situation, but there was
some slight selling in the final dealings by
yesterday's discouraged buyers. .
The bank statement revealed a surplus re
serve of over fuu.ouO.UOO and explains the
feeling of assurance of early provisions alnst
all contingencies.
Total sales of bonds, par value, tS16,000.
United States s have declined 14 and the 3s
U per cent on call-durlng the week.

HEPPNER A "STOCK MARKET
SHEEP, CATTLE. HOUSES AXD
AVOOjL BRIXG OVER $600,000.
Sheepmen Believe That Better Val
ues Will Prevail After Pres
idential Election.
HEPPXER, Or., June ST. (Special.)
That HPppner Is a market place lor the
ftock industry Is borne out by the figures
produced at the local stockyards and wool
warehouses. This has been a backward
year for stock of all kinds, as -p ell as other
products of the ranch, but for a town the
size of Hcppner it speaks well for it as a
business center.. Business has been better
in this town this Spring than any other
town for its size in the eastern part of the
state.
This Spring the sheep sales were consid
erably smaller than last year, owing to the
fact that the price had shrunk all the way
from 50 cents to a dollar on the head, and
many sheepmen are holding their lambs for
a later market or until next Spring, when
they think they will be able to get what
they think they are worth. The average
price paid this Spring for sheep to go upon
the ranges of Montana and AVyoming is $2.0f
and that for the local mutton market of
Troutdale and Portland was ?:i.2.Y
Since January 1 the Portland and Trout
dale markets have consumed over 1000 head
of mutton sheep, which Itwve nnlted tho
growers $:1250. and over 61,0I head to go
upon the ranges netted the growers $156,XK.
The last train of sheep, which left here the
first of the week, for Montana, carried 500
head of bucks, which were sold at $7.50
each. The sale of sheep alone has brought
into the hands of the growers of this local
ity $103,000, but this is not the only revenue
derived.
Heppner will market a good 3.000.000
pounds of woo this season at an average
price of 12 cents per pound, footing up in
round figures $360,000, which brings the
totnl receipts from the shep business up
to $5113,000.
Heppner has shipped 2240 head of beef
cattle at an average price of $15 per head,
and over $3000 worth of horses have gone
to other markets. The result of the output
of stock from this place has brought into
the hands of the producers $036,000.
The figures given do not include blooded
stock of any natcie, but simply stock taken
from the ranges and landed on the markets.
There are numerous herds of blooded bucks
in this county that would bring a far bet
ter price than $7-50, and the same is trut of
horses and cattle..
It is necesasry for the stockman of today
to receive a larger price for his stock than
lt was a few years ago. T he stockman now
owns his own Winter range, and his Summer-range
is still furnished by the Govern
ment, but he must pay a grazing privilege,
and these facts, coupled with the rise of
land values, cuts into the profits of the
grower.
Sheepmen have been mere fortunate than
any other class of stockmen durng the past
five or six years. Sheep have been on a
gradual increase until this Spring, when the
market slumped about 15 per cent and the
price of wool dropped off from 4 to S cents
per pound. However, the growers are op
timistic, and flsure that things will
straighten out satisfactorily after the Pres
idential election this Fall.

RALLY IS SHARP
Wheat Market at Chicago
Turns Strong.
CENT AND HALF ADVANCE
Upturn Due to Small Primary Re
ceipts and Holding or X'ew Wheat
by Farmers in Southwest.
Corn and Oats l-'irm.
CHICAGO. June 17. The wheat market
was firm all day with the exception of a
brief period of uneasiness at the start, due
to a renewed profit-taking in the July de
livery. Liquidating sales at the opening
were brought out chiefly by lower cables
and by a continuance of favorable weather
for harvesting the new crop of wheat In
this country. The market rallied sharply
during the first half hour and held strong
the remainder of the day. The upturn was
due to small receipts of wheat at all pri
mary points In the "United States and to
reports that farmers In the Southwest were
stacking their new wheat rather than sell
at prevailing prices. Julv opened ?c to
t?4c lower at S4VitS4c, sold at SIHo
ana then advanced to bo?c. closing strong
at 83 c
Corn opened easy, owing to favorable
weather for the growing crop and to the
break in wheat. The market, however,
soon rallied on buying by shorts and con
tinued 'firm the rest of the day. July
closed at fiSe.
Oots followed the course of wheat and
corn, the market being easy at the start
and becorAlng firm early in the session. July
closed at 44lC.
Provisions were strong and active on a
demand from local packers, which was
based on a 10c advance in live hogs. At tho
close September pork was up luc; lard waj

"Weekly Statement Is Complicated by
SI lowing Made by Trust
Companies.
NEW YORK. June 27. The Financier will
say:
The statement of the Associated Hanks
of New York City for the week ending' June
27 differed radically in every Horn from the
generally expected showing. It was known,
for instance, that the banks had gained
more than $10,000,000 In cash during the
week through their operations with the sub
treasury and the interior, and as stock
market speculation has . been dormant, it
was generally anticipated that little change
would be made In tho loan account. How
ever, the report of the actual conditions of
the banks to the clearing-house on Sat
urday showed an increase in specie and
Icg-al tenders of only $3,372,400, while there
was reported a decrease in loans amounting
to $19,747,700. Deposits, as a result of the
changes noted, decreased S14.347.000. and
the surplus reserve increased $,i93,32o,
bringing the total actual surplus reserve to
$08,233,925. Kxcluding Government depos
its, on which no reserve Is necessary, the
surplus cash in the New York banks above
the 26 per cent requirement is now in ex
cess of $72,030,000, and the banks hold
$3 &6, 5 UO. 000 in gold and legal tenders, the
largest amount on record.
The only explanation which can be given
for the unexpected changes in the leading
items fs to be found in the summary of
state banks and trust companies in the
Greater New York clearing house. These
Institutions, particularly the trust compa
nies, reported for the week ending Satur
day an increase of $8,750,000 in loans, and
an Increase of more than $3,000,000 in specio
and legal tenders, the cash increase being
due to the fact that the trust companies
on July 1 must by law increase the amount
of cash reserve carried in their own vaults.
The net deposits of the state banks and
trust companies rose during the week
$13,847,700.
The statement of average conditions nf
the clearing-house banks for th week shows
that the banks hold $06.09 8. S00 more than
the requirements of the 5 per cent reserve
