Astoria's Greatest Store. Where New Things Make Their Dbut That flour buying in the Orient has fallen oft is evident from the fact that the China liner Numantia, which is to sail Sunday, wis cleared today with one lot of the wheat product going for ward on her to Hong Kong, which amounted to but 7300 barrels, and is valued at 10,000. This small showing is due to the fact that there fc no or ders on hand and the one lot represent the end of an engagement placed some time ago. The Orientals are credited with harboring the opinion that Cali fornia is to hr a bumper wheat crop this season, consequently, they antici pate a decided reduction in quotations It is reported that stocks at Hong Kong amount to 370,000 sacks of Oregon and Washington flour, and 140,000 sacks of California. In May, 1004, there was dispatched from this port flour aggregating 41, 700 barrels, while last month the ex ports reached 110..1W barrels, and since the opening of the cereal year the ship ments have been 970,500 barels, show ing a falling off as compared with the same period in the preceding season. when the Hour floated had aggregated 1.054.152 barrels. With the departure of the Numania the flour exports from Portland will hsve ceased for the year 1904-05. Another item on the steamer's mani fest, but of large proportions, is 1000 bales of cotton, which go to Moji, and for the same place she has eight crates of engine parts, 20 cases of elictrical machinery and 131 eases of other ma chinery. For Kobe there is listed 27 packages of plumbing suplles and 874 cases of machinery. Yokohama's con signments include four cases of Japan ese curios, 157 packages, of plumbing supplies, 208 packages of sewing ma chines, 2488 bags of malt, 10ft cases of machinery and 13,107 feet of lumber worth $300. There are 61 cases of can ned fruit billed to Durban, South Afri ca, going via. Hong Kong, and in ad dition to the flour billed to the Chinese harbor is 180,3.10 feet of lumber, cleared at 36.-i0, bringing the total valuation of the cargo to $251,083.55.
