The local market opened this morning' Under considerable Influence from the general market, but with no abatement of features of last week, of large business '- and steady prices. It was aa If the decks were cleared for a good, fair t us tie for margins all along the line; margins for j tolppers and for dealers. - i "You can't lose me," shouted the Bait trust from Frisco, sending along the ex "pected raise. However, it proved but a reminder of the trust's power,, for it was but tl "per. ton. on ail coarse salt. But Vice-President Durkheimur. of the Wad hams Company, incorporated, 'expressed ; the Idea la saying that this was probably . but a feeling forerunner - of . what may ' . follow. The raise' is. as The Journal fore ' cast. In effect today, the ICth. ' Produce lines Were slack, on account of Its being Monday, and the fires interfer ing somewhat, but cot enough to make ' any material change in prices. The ' changes made were more In corrections of overflights than effect of market con ditions. i Grain -reports from the early Eastern markets were without unusual features. Many are the street surprises expressed that the reported losses to corn from . frosts have not had more effect. '- Tba cooler weathes was stimulating to tife4'pab4l.

MARKETS OF THE WORLD By Bolton de Ruyter A Co. CHICAGO, Sept. 15. The Record-Herald today says: The September wheat situa tion at Chicago is the speculative prob lem. The marke acts as if the Armour line was btill a large one.' Tly.' stock of contract here In public houses was only fcOO.000 bushels at the last statement. There is but a fortnight left to delivery day. Yet the pit professional is so certain Ar mour pre poses no squeeze. Every, Urne there is any Indication of profit taking by the big September holder, 'the-crowd sells the market off. This may result In tlio longs deciding to stand and take de livery. In such cases unless theory of large shortages Is all wrong, there might result September squeeze. There are no indications of anybody making any ef fort to Vring wheat here. The chances are the short interest is not of that class which ft is expected to cover except in the pit. If there Is continued good weath er and the expected Increase in arrivals in the Northwest cash prices up there are rot likely to show much strength. In case of any notably September advance at Chicago, there would probably be a mcre to bring Northwestern grain down here. There could not be this sort of cor-' rectlve. however, ..unless the September here moved this up this week In another week it would be too late to effect much, no nmtte, wht the . dlffscesV . Tha Armour interest Is 'the onfy one which ever moved great quantities of cash grain in a hurry, and If this interest has the September line, the gossips think It would not bring cash w.heat here to help out rhorts. The liiaifferepjfce to .th September wheat possibilities Is the surprising cir cumstances. But there Is a faculty that leads some short sellers to assume they j alone have the courage to stick and that consequently the aggregate short Inter ests is small and not worth pursuing. That this type of dementia is not rare is shown by the growing . disposition of shorts to keep. their contracts otlt up to the last month and without making a more to supply themselves with the prop. erty they have sold. Corn closed the week onlyH to 1 cent higher than the week before, .although .there was realized that cold weather with the shorts had been fearing end the bulls had been relying upon. Corn closed lower after the of ficial announcement of killing frosts through Iowa than before. The queer re sults was largely because the corn profit is at present the control of professionals. He had been apprehensive of frost for several days and had done some buying in anticipation. He had corn for sale when the cold weather was reported. The western man is still to be heard from and fttf irr jjr fiir&'lt'j a. w w.vi fig u.cVripiefi t. There was no cold weather" htri i cngo, not enough to effect the rowers even. That Influenced the local element. A day or so will tell the story as to Iowa. VISIBLE GRAIN SUPPLY. CHICAGO. Sent. 15.

STATE FAIR m IS OPENED Fine Exhibits of Stock and Farm Products RACE HORSES IN NUMBERS An Accident Racing Editors' Day Comes Tomorrow. (Journal Special Service.) BALEM, Sept 15. The State Fair open ed this morning, with the best, exhibition of the products of the farm, garden, dairy and stock ranch ever seen in Ore gon, and under the most favorable auspi ces. Over 800 Jhead of blooded, catt,e are In the stock pens, the" finest show of THE GIFT v If (4- 1 t " it ' -i-.' -Mix- 4 ' W'!-.- 'i - -"-'7-.' ;i , ."v-" - vl- ' - ,v.' ' i ijh't"t!s,-,-';' - . " rr The work of converting part of the Interior of treautiful 'Osborne I-hriise Palace into a convalescent home for army and navy officers will be begun aa. stfbn as possible. There Is much gratification ex pretased in army and navy circles over' the thoughtfulness of King Edward. ' ';' & blooded stock ever seen'west of the Rocky Mountains. Among them are Shorthorns, Hergfords, Polled Angus, Brown Swiss, Red Polles, Holsteins, Jerseys, Ayrshlres and Guernseys, and they come in herds from 10 to 20. head. The sheep pens are equally well filled with the best lot of sheep ever at the State Fair, while In the swine department no finer lot of porkers could be desired. Show horses are there In greater abundance than ever before, and Tce horses are here by the hundreds. It is Indeed a "splendid show ing, and the board is proud of the success attained in arranging a creditable display. Yesterday a special freight train arrived from Everett, bearing 86 race, horses, and these splendid animals were given quar ters" at the track; Where a new range of stalls had been constructed to house them. During yesterday an accident occurred at the Fair Grounds, that came near be ing an expensive one to the board. A range of new stalls, just constructed, had been so poorly put together by the car penters that they fell, the outer walls, not properly braced, breaking down, and four racehorses, stabled there, were caught in the crash. They were B. F. Swsggert's Oregon George and Oregon . Sunset. Fortunately none of the horses were hurt, except Sunset, arid that animal Is not seriously injured, and will be ready for the races in which she is entered. Had the stalls been filled, or had the horses in them been crippled or killed the damage Would have been great. The stalls are being rebuilt, and the ac cident, while regrettable, will have no bad results. This afternoon the racing card present ed is an excellent one. The several races are: Oregon stake, pacing division, for 2-year-olds. purse $600; seven entries. Trotting. 2:27 class, purse $400; five en tries. lllihee stake, five-eighths mile cash for distriet-bred 2-yearolds, added, tm; eleven entries.
