September 1.1T& 1.17V4 December 1.15 1-1 The local flour market la unsettled, as a result of the recent decline of 20 cents at Seattle and Tacoma. which puta these mar kets below Portland for the first time In several months. White no decline la openly announced locally. It la understood that the Puget Sound prices are being generally met by most of the millers of this section. Broomhall's latest summary of foreign wheat crop conditions follows: United Kingdom There are continued com plaints being received regarding the outlook for the crop, as much lodging Is reported and the 'crop is thin. The districts with the largest aciteage. however, are being har vested. The crop Is expected to be smaller than last year. France The wheat crop will undoubtedly be a short one. with the quality low. Our Paris correspondent estimates the yield at 2S8.0UO.0OO bushels, and stocks at 40.000.000 busliela. The average yearly consumption amounts to 33t.000.000 bushels. The weather has Improved after the recent storms, and the crop outlook baa generally been main tained. Hungary Our agent confirms the crop of good quality. Koumnnia Harvesting of wheat la In progress, the result of which Is showing the yield to be below an average, whika the quality is excellent. KuKsia Reports from the Southwest state the Spring wheat yield unsatisfactory. Our airent at Taganrog reduces his estimate to about an average. The outlook for oats In the southern region Is favorable, and the outlook for corn In Southwest Is highly fa vorable; some authorities give the condition at 100 per cent. Spain Outlook for the crop is fair. CREEX PRODUCE CLEANS UP WELL Washington Cantalonpe Shipments Will Start This Week. The Front-street produce men brought their business to an early close yesterday after noon In order to attend the ball game, but this did pot prevent them from cleaning up nearly all the fruit they had on hand. Light receipts helped to this end. AeMe from the customary watermelon arrivals, little came to hand. Good peaches were decidedly scarce, but a considerable lot of Inferior Oregon fruit was offered at low prices. The best grades of cantaloupes were advanced to 82.75. Prices otherwise were not materially changed. Among the California receipts due Monday will- be two cars of green fruit, mostly peaches, and a car of lemons. California ad vice note increased firmness in peaches, owing to the Eastern demand. Washington cantaloupes will make their ap pearance thla week in small quantities, the first coming from Toppenlsh. Taklma will also begin shipments this week, but not in large quantities for two weeks yet. Wenatchee reports that free shipments will not take place for three or four aeeka Payette wires that shipments ot . cantaloupes will start from there between August 13 and August SO. California sweet potato shippers are offer ing carlots for shipment this week. This Is a week earlier than last year. CALLS HORST DELIGHTED DAMPER. Satisfied With the Turn Affair Have Taken in England. The London correspondent of the Paris edition of the New York Herald announces the return to London of Paul it. U. Horst. The correspondent has got Paul confused with tits brothor, the Baron I.ouis, but this la a trifling mistake, as, to the average In dividual, a Horst is a Horst, no matter what his title. 'Baron von Horst," says the correspond ent, "comes with a glad face because the tax on hops, of which he grows more than any one else in the world, will not be im posed by the English government. "As I told you many months ago. Baron von Horst then described Englaud as the dumping ground for liis surplus growth of Californlan bops. That raised merry Ned in England, got into Parliament, and also into the hop-growing districts in England, and brought about many meetings of indig nation. Tlw Baron quietly faded away to Oermany when all this trouble was brew ing "Few people knew, however, that at the big meeting at Trafalgar Square, protesting SKatnst the hop-growing legislation. Baron von Horst himself waa present, and stood on top of a coach and allowed himself to be photographed. If the crowd had known it, I suspect that the Baron would have had his clothes pretty well damaged. Possibly he might have had a leg or arm pulled off, but he's a husky fellow, and 1 think .lie might have even stood that. "Now he Is back and smiling, with a smtle that won't come off. He has won out. and he" can use England for a dumping ground for his own hops Just the same as ever." POOR OUTLOOK FOB POULTRY. Price Shaded to Clean Up Saturday's Ac cumulation. The week in the poultry market ended with the expected slump. To clean up, hens were sold ax 12 cents and Springs at 14 cents. The prospects for the coming week are not en couraging. There was no change in the egg market yesterday. Receipts were above the normal, SS cases. The demand for extras good, while the lower grades dragged. Butter receipts were SO boxes.

Improvement in Seattle Poultry and Egs Markets Strong Demand for Fruit. SEATTLE, Wash., . Aug. 1. (Special.) Morltx Thomsen, president of the Centennial Mill Company, said today that Coast flour mills will s unable to sen flour In the Orient this Fall, unless wheat prices are re duced from the present level. Like most millers and exporters here, he holds that opening prices are too high. A decided Improvement is noted In the egg and poultry market. While dealers are car rying over heavy stocks of hens and Springs, the demand is so active that prices were not cut this afternoon to clean up. There will be no reduction In prices in the country next week. Egg receipts axe heavier and most eggs are selling at 30 -cents. Cash sales go at 28 cents. Eastern eggs move freely. The market is supplied with some excellent April stock, for which dealers are asking as high as 27 cents. Heavy receipts of watermelons have no effect on prices, owing to a strong- demand. There were far from being enough berries to go around this morning. Cherries were also in light supply. Beef Is a half cent lower at 7 cento for dressed ateers. The Paclflc Coast Condensed Milk Company today advanced the price of condensed milk 40 cents per case. The Bordens expect to raise their prices in a few days'. This ends a long-drawn-out fight between the two con- Spirited Wheat Bidding at Weston. WESTON' OrV August 1. (Special.)

Prices Current Locally on Cattle, Sheep and Hogs. The poor quality of a good many of the sheep and lambs that have lately arrived here had the effect of turning prices down ward. Mixed sheep were quoted yesterday at a decline of 5 cents ewes were off the same amount and lambs were quoted down to- 4 cents. A farther decline in lambs is probable. The former prlcea of best weth ers was maintained. There Is a good de mand for good cattle at steady prices and the condition of the week's receipts was quite satisfactory. Hogs were scarce and firm all week. There were no receipts yes terday.

READING IS THE LEADER Realizing Sales Later "Weaken En tire List -Good Impression Is Caused by Pennsylvania.. Report of Earnings. NEW YORK. Aug., 1. Reading led the market to higher levels today In continua tion of the sudden movement which developed In that stock late yesterday. Other coalers were not markedly affected In company. Con spicuous trading stocks, however, were active and strong and touched new high levels for the year. The coppers were subjected to new proflt-taking salts, following yesterday's sharp rise, but continued to advance. The realiz ing affected the whole list decidedly at the last. - Further consideration of the Wheeling & Lake Erie note settlement and Its consequences enhanced Its importance In the speculative view. It was reported that the trunk lines had decided to defer until December 1 any at tempt to advance freight rates, the criticism of the proposal having proved discouraging. Suggestions alt possible Federal intervention to try to settle the wage controversy ot the Delaware, lckaw-anna & Western were re ceived with some misgivings. The material reduction in operating ex penses In June, affected by the Pennsylvania system, made a good impression on security holders. An upturn in the price of wheat kept at tention ' focused on the Spring wheat damage reports. It was not until the closing that the profit taking was allowed to affect prices. Reading's net gain of after having sold 1 higher than last night, la a fair Index ot the day's market as a whole. Bonds were steady. Total sales par value $1,816,000.

New York Institutions Now Have Percentage of 29.38 Re serve to Depo6its. NEW YORK, Aug. 1. The Financier will say: The official statement of the New York Associated Banks for the week showed an actual decrease In cash. Instead of a com paratively small gain as was expected from the preliminary estimates. This loss was doubtless due to the operations of the Sub Treasury with the banks, largely through the payments through these institutions to the Government of $5,000,000 on account of the Central Paclflc subsidy indebtedness, which was finally cancelled last week, and also of transfers of $3,000,000 gold to Canada. It may be noted, however, that the average statement indicated a gain of about $4,000,H)0 cash and there was an in crease in reserve shown by such statement of $2,567,325, whereas the report of actual conditions showed a loss of $1,144,250 to $57,263,475. computed upon the basis of de posits lees those of $0,228,000 public funds, there is a decrease of $1,148,275 reserve to $59,570,475. Loans increased $2,309,300 ac cording to the averages; there was a de crease of $444,700 as shown by the actual conditions. Average deposits were greater by $6,413,100, while actually they were $SC9,SO0 leBs. The banks now have a per centage of 29.33 reserve to deposits; state banks show 30.60 and trust companies 36.60 per cent.
