CAPTAIN MUST PAY CASH Pallor of Scboonrr Edward R. West Arriving at Aberdeen foiii CI " lao Given Not Knough to Eat and SIckncs I Caused. AHERPFEX. -Wash.. Xnt. 11. (Sp rla! Th claim of a rertaln portion rf tht rrrw of the schooner Edward R. West. Captain C. Jensen, that they n short of provisions durinsr the -tay ToyiE from Callao to Ilili port and were therefore entitled to extra pay. was allowed this afternoon by Acting Shipping I'ommlaKl.-ner Sebastian, at a rate of 69 rents a !ay extra. which will entitle each man to a total of $157.50. Thla decision I rejected by Captain Jrnaen. and aa a result the case will t taken to court, the Sailors fnlon standing behind the men. fShlpplns men here heartily Indorse Captain Jensen, who Is known all lions the Coast. They declare he Is a Just mu ter with a reputation for leniency. Captain Jensen admits that they ran out of butter and sugar and Is willing to allow for this, but he states that on the other hand there was a plenti ful supply of canned tomatoes, corn and other luxuries, which sailors on windjammers do not as a rule enjoy a, ea. As to the statement of the crew that they ran out of meat. It la pointed out that a plentiful supply still remains on board, so that even if some had fcen sold It made no difference. The aailora affirm that they were placed on short rations only a few daya after they left Caltao. They also stated that they had been Riven but one pound f rhewlnx tobacco for the entire voyaae and that there were no stores of amok Inr tobacco for the entire trip. The men kept individual diaries and records of the trip, which were used In evidence. The statement waa made that the captain sold a number of bar rels of beef before sailing. In conse quence of which the meat supply ran short. Some of the men at the trial ahowrd that they were afflicted with bolls, which, they claimed, were due to Insufficient food. W. ittnnnera. the New Zealander. rharser with starting the trouble, denies that he Is a "Jailbird" and aays that be. with other members, made tha trip to Callno on the schooner Minnie A. Kane. The etand of shipping men here la that complaints such as this one are frequent when vessels arrive from ports like Cal lao. for the reason, they say. that It Is necessary to pick up most any kind of seamen when signing crews at that port. These men. they say. grasp every oppor tunity to prefer charges if there la any likelihood of securing extra, money, but that the complaints when lifted down are usually found groundless. 1AI.COX LOSS IS ESTIMATED About J 5 Per Cent of Steamer's Cargo Is Injured by Fire. Of the total loss to the carro of the ".earner Falcon, which arrived here Tues day from Sin Franciero with a tire rag ing in her after hatclu an as-e?rnent of 33 1-J per cent hus been placed by the underwriters against the shippers and the owners of the vessel to make up for the low done by the water used in put tin f out the flames. The remainder of the damage will be paid by the under writers!. At least 71 per cent of the cargo, it Is estimated, after careful ex amination, hat been more or less dam aged by the tire, but tha res;-el Is unin jured. The Falcon, after recelvlna a new rargo, sailed yesterday afternoon for f.in Francisco. The underwriters; John ny & HlgKlns. of San Francisco, sent adjusters, -under the direction of O. It. Morgan, several daya ago to determine he dnm-ige. and they have powesttlon of tint cargo now. The foods which were only partially ruined have been segre gated on Albers Dock. The original eon a Knees will have opportunity of taking over the damaged good at a figure to be determined by them and the under writers. If they are wanted. The Falcon took with her to fan Fran c!co when she sailed yesterday about 1 tons of Tops, exilmon and prunes for Atlantic ports and Kurope.

Steady buying of all grades Is going on and there are ready takers for all suitable grades on offer.

EXPORTERS HOLD BACK NORTHERN" GRAIN MARKETS ARE QC1ET. Oats Are Fifty Cents a Ton Higher at Seattle Potato Prices Declining. SEATTLE. Wash., Nov. 12. (Special.) The grain trade was quiet, notwithstanding the generally accepted opinion that the bot tom has been reached. Exporters seemed adverse to taking on fresh lots of wheat to day. Oats were firmer and quoted 80 cents higher, at S27.30. Barley was dull. The hay market was weak. Reports from country points Indicate that large quanti ties of hay are being loaded out for ship ment to the coast. The potato market continues easy. Tne vtry outside price on Yakimas was S28, with most sales at S25. White Rivers were in heavy supply at from S21 to S23. The demand for aweet potatoes waa not very brTodays boat brought about 1200 boxes of grapes. Tha supply was larger than could be absorbed. A few Concords are still of fend. Good tomatoes were scarce.

Jjatest Sales by the North western Exchange. The aI1- market bulletin of the North western Fruit Exchange. 13 pal dins building, follows: Early In tha season, at which time the speculative demand for cold storage apples la always strongest, we had a heavy de mand from all districts, and sent many let ters and telegrams to various associations in the Northwest, urging them to name definite specifications under which we might effect sales. It is a fact that very few of the associations were In, position to take advantage of thla demand, for the simple reason that they lacked -control of the fruit grown by their members, and seemed quite unable to make dependable estimates of what they would eventually, ship. Conse quently a great deal of this demand was lost, and there is an axiom In the fruit business that "demand which is once lost can never be regained." We take occa sion to call particular attention to this condition because it is vital to the welfare of the whole industry. It Is easily seen that where an5 association Is so loosely or ganized as to be unable to offer Its fruit In large blocks under definite specifications, the only alternative is to market each car separately at the time it moves. It also results In the shipment of a great num ber of mixed cars containing more or lss fruit unsuitable for cold storage, and, there fore, unattractive to the very best class of trade. We wish to go on record In the statement that we cannot conceive of any thing which offers a more dangerous handi cap to the success of any district than the conditions we have cited. The great cry ing need is organization of the growers at local shipping points on a sound up-1 '-date business basis with an intelligent knowledge of supply and demand, the requirements of the market, and of the inevitable law of cause and effect. It does no good for grow ers to ignore these conditions and then complain later on, when through their own neglest, market conditions result in low prict-s and unsatisfactory sales. The Northwestern Fruit Exchange has directed ltsentlre energies toward the se curing of top values for Its membership. The prices obtained this season are excel lent in comparison with general prevailing prices, but we wish the growers distinctly to understand that the trade has been largely supplied and especially the most de sirable class of trade. Cold storage buyers who have not already covered their require ments are afraid to take a chance on fruit coming forward now, as much of it is show ing overripe on arrival, and the most con servative operators In the trade are not overly confident of the outcome of cold stor age this season. It is generally considered that only the' most desirable varieties and the very best fruit will come out of cold storage with a profit, and any other kind would show a heavy loss. This lack of con fidence tends to throw a lot of fruit into the market which would otherewise go in storage and has weakened the whole situa tion. The moral which we wish to point' is that the weak markets which almost in variably characterized the latter quarter or half of the shipping season could be largely avoided by the afore-mentioned organiza tion at shipping point, and those organiza tions which do not meet these conditions have only themselves to blame for the re sults If they are unsatisfactory during the last half of the season. The market continues unsettled, weak and very difficult. The demand is almost negligible. Market centers In all parts of the country report an over-supply and much of tho stock Is ripe, and this adds to the com plication a We have made the following sales since last report, and while these prices are con siderably lower than we have obtained ear lier In the season, they represent extreme value under conditions existing in fact, the very top of the market.

Prices Move Sluggishly and. Close With Only Fractional Changes. Bonds Are Steady. NEW TORK, Not. 12. The speculation In stocks displayed little initiative today. Prices moved sluggishly and Indecisively. The se vere decline after the election and the re bound which followed seemed to have re duced the commitments pressing for imme diate settlement to Insignificant proportions. Today there waa no urgent pressure ot liqui dation and demand was Indifferent. Pinal prices showed Insignificant changes from last night. , . The British political crisis Is regarded as Important in its possible bearing on inter national monetary relations. The advance today in the private discount rate in Lon don showed in what direction the influence might become directly effective. The Immediate easing of the money mar ket in New Tork has not encouraged long extension of speculative commitments jn stocks. There was caution In the deal ings and dullness was the consequence. The bank statement showed an unexpect edly large Increase in the actual cash hold ings. Coupled with the accompanying con traction of loans, this afforded a substan tial gain in the surplus and reduced the ex cess of loans over deposits for the first time In many weeks. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $852,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Allls Chal pf. . Amal Copper Am Agricult . . Am Beet Sugar. American Can..

Primary Receipts Larger Than Ex pected Big Shipments From the Black Sea. CHICAGO. Nov. 12. Wheat closed weak at the bottom figures of the day. Decem ber at all tlmea was relatively firmer than the deferred months. There was no im provement here in the cash situation, how ever, and it was also apparent that ex port sales were lacking In both American and Canadian wheat. Primary receipts for the week were larger Instead of less than a week ago. About 100,000 bushels more arrived In Chicago than was shipped out. Liberal shipments from the Black Sea and favorable crop reports from the Aregntina tended further to discourage hopes of any immediate rise In quotations. The May option ranged from S5c to S6c, clos ing c net lower at 9o9jc Corn eased off somewhat. May fluctuated between 47 c and 48c with final sales c down at 4747c. The tone of the cash trade was strong. No. 2 yellow closed at 51(&Slc. There waa no activity In oats. May sold from 34e34o to 34 34 c. finishing at the first named figures, a net" loss of c. Provisions were poorly supported. In consequence, the end of trading left pork 710c to 17c down, lard off 710c to 12 c and ribs less costly by 7c to 10c The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT.
