Th selling; pric cf onion wa ad

th regular weekly meeting of th
Confederated Onlongrowere" Asocla
tlon ytrdr. Tha market la dedded

far off.
Few (row.n wera willing to Mil at
the old quotation of $1.40. and on!y
eight care were moved out In the past
week, leaving 17V car In Ilrat handa.
At the advance yeterdy there waa
mora disposition to aelU and aeveral
cara were dlepoaed of after the cloia
of the meeting. The demand waa In
no way checked by tha rl.
The activity of the coming week will
depend entirely on the weather. If the
cold wave continue It la not likely
that many cara will be Bold. Tha mar
keta on the Sound and at .Spokane ar
firru. but trade there la checked by
low temperature. California ellll hu
ome prior grade onion left and order
from that quarter are not expected for
a week or 10 day.
Advice received from Texa ar that
the freexe.ln that tat baa given the
crop a sertou setback at La re Jo. Uie
center of tha Texas onlongrowlng in
dustry, the thermometer fell to li de
gree. Kstimatea of the damage done
to the growing crop cannot, of course,
be made at this time, but mall reports
ar that the early onion were Injured
:o. per cent and lale planting & to 10
per cent.
One thing la certain, and that is that
the Texas crop ha been et back,
which meana the lengthening of the
Oregon season. The Brit Texa onion
usually come on this market about tha
middle of April, but last year it was
April 23 before the first car appeared,
owing to Just such a frees aa tha
bouth la havlngthls year.
At the rate that Oregon onions ar
going out. th entire crop will be old
befor that time: There will also be
no late competition from California,
so, on the whole, th Oregon grower
ar confident of good price up to tha
last. .

yet ' In aubmttting this list we wtah to

dozens of markets which are available a

The Northwestern Fruit Exchange haa
bandied thla season something over 700
car-loads, which have been distributed,
as you will nota by this list, to 134 dif
ferent markets.- Comparing the number
of markets to the total number of car,
shows an average of distribution which
Is truly remarkable. There is no ques
tion but what this proportion has never
been even approached relatively."
Th Exchange wlhe partlcuJarly to
call attention to th. distribution In the
United Kingdom, there having been em
ployed 24 different market in England.
Ireland, Scotland and Wales. This fruit
was all sold at private sale by the beat
fruit aleamen in the United Kingdom,
and under the most perfect system of
fruit distribution In existence In Europe.
Th Exchange Is now preparing com
parative tatment of Its sales average
coverlna all class of fruit for th ea
pon. Thera Is no dependable means of
comparing the result with those obtained
by Independent shippers, as very few of
these shirkers reduce "their results to
statement form. However. Judging. from
Information whlcb reaches ua from
various sources, th Exchange has reason
to bellev that ita average will prov
to be higher than thos obtained under
any other ystm of marketing now In

The Exchange points with pardonable
pride to the fact that over W per cent of

The Flnanoler will say:
The tremendous flow of cash te New York
from the""lnterlor last weak, amounting, ac
cording to the clearlng-hpuae statement of
Saturday, to f-20, 12i',ooo. onersted to bring
the surplus reserve figure to an amount un
precedented at this season of tha yaar. Th
loans of the banks mad, a rather unex
pectedly heavy lncreas of 818,273,800, and
this, with tha cash incresse noted, en
larged deposits by 144,063,300, Ths In
creased reserve requirement on the deposit
expanaion required of Itself over 1 1,000.000.
so that the sain In reaerve was only $15.
112.7O0, bringing the present surplus abovs
the 25 per cent minimum to $33,801,425. Ths
present cash reserve of the bsnks, taking the
statement of actual conditions as a basis, is
27.7 per cent.
Ths statement of averagas showed a gain
of over $20,000,000 In casb. but since in the
statement of average loan wer decreased
Jh.410.000, much of the cash gain went to
swell the surplus and that Item, figured on
th average baala, stsnds at $27,808,230.
An Interesting feature of the reports of
trust companiea and outside Institutions Sat
urday was a decrease of $32,575,300 In loans,
a loss of $3.S0d,O0O in caeh and a decrease
In net deposits of $35,153,300.
Nuturslly some of these decreases were
caused by the elimination of a large trust
company since the end of the previous weak,
but even so this does not acoount altogether
for the decrease In trust companiea' totals
and it seems from the statement of clearing
house banks that they have taken over a
large number of loans from the trust com
paniea. Flax at Minneapolis.

NW TORK, Jan. 14. Resumption of
yesterday's buying: movement in stocks
waa a feature at th opening; today,
though in moderate form. Early transac
tions wera conspicuous for the extent
of th trading; In United States Steel and
Beading-, both showing smart gains. Soil
ing by traders, presumably for profit,
6on wiped out tha g;reater part of Raad
lngJe advance, but Steel held compara
tively steady. Trading: fell off in th
second bour, which was notable chiefly
for the atrangth of Lehigh Valley and
th cyratlons of GoldQeld Consolidated,
a mining- stock whica closed yesterday
at 6Ti and sold down to Shi today. This
Issue was only- recently listed ori ths
exchange and at do time haa had much
support. , . - .
The bank statement more than ful
filled expectations as to the cash gain,
which was over 126,000,000. The uncer
tainties of tha week were demonstrated
in the actual loan account, which In
creased over 118,000,000.' Reserves, how
ever, show a very substantial gain. Tha
enormous reduction of loans by state
banks and trust companies $32,500,000
Indicates that some of these institutions
found it inconvenient during the week
to shift the burden of loans to th clearing-house
banks.
A further lncreas . in the number of
imj cars waa officially announced to
day, making a total of about 110.000 cars.
News from abroad reported a further
hardening of discounts at London, du
primarily to soma fear concerning Feb
ruary settlements. European Investors
are showing much greater Interest in
American securities, chiefly the high
grade bonds, although there has been
steady buying of Canadian Pacific, Union
Pacific, United States Steel and Copper
shares for continental aocount.
Total sales of bonds, par value, $1,994,000,
United States Government bonds wer
unchanged on call, this week.

were the same as last nleht to 17V.0 below.
Despite liberal purohases by longs, wheat
at no time today aold aa high as at the
close of the previous session. On reason
was that receipt her were virtually equal
In extent to shipments, so that hope for a
melting away of supplies appeared aa re
mote a ewer. ' Weather conditions In the
Fall-sown fcraln states were also believed
to hav been materially Improved during
the last 24 hours. In the absence of any
positive fresh encouragement for the buy

start until the final ong. , May ranged from
