PREPARING TO USE0ILFUEL NearrrAtt River Bdats Are Taking v Steps in That Direction. , The indlcatlona are that In a short time all tbe river steamers and steam coasters coming Into this port will soon be equip, ped with oil-burning plants. Oil tanks ar rived yesterday for the steamer Kehani, operated by the Oregon Round Lumber Company, and she will soon discard wood as a fuel. The Prentiss of the Gray Steamship Company has been using oil for several weeks past and with such a satisfactory result that the company has decided to operate the AAiance, the Despatch and tha Fulton with oil juat as toon aa it la possible to make the change. The experiments which the Jones Tow Ing Company ha made with oil has been entirely .satisfactory, proving less expen sive than wood and having many other advantages. The Iralda has been supplied with new bomers and Is again using oil, The Shaver boats are-also preparing- to fall into -the 'progressive lead . taken, by various lines, and it la aald that the O, R. & N. Company hat the matter under consideration. Within a year from now It la believed that all the river ateamert will have oil -burn ing plants. CURB TRUSTS New Hampshire Constitution Con vention to Meet Today CONCORD, N. H.. Dec. J.-Th conven tlon which Is to frame a new constitu tion for the State of New Hampshire convened today, with William E. Chand ler, ex-Senator of the United States, In the chair, Tha proceedings of the con. venthm promise to attract more than "or dinary attention, owing to the sentiment among the delegates in favor of adopting stringent measures looking to the regu latlon of trusts within the bounds of New Hampshire. - Mr. Chandler has 'is sued a statement to the members of the convention, in which he suggests an amendment giving the Legislature power to supervise and regulate Ul oorpora tlons, prohibiting fictitious capitalisation and devices for the suppression of com petition and to secure publicity in , their BRITISH SHIPS COME TOGETHER Isle of Arran Dragged Anchor and Drifted Into Donan Hill.

BAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Deo. 1 The annual convention of the State Fruit Growers Association, which opened to day in Pioneer Hall, bids fair to be the most important in the history of the as- of a quarter of a century. Today's, pro ceedings were largely of a preliminary nature. At the subsequent sessions, which continue, all week, many topics of Interest to those engaged in the fruit growing industry will be discussed. WD V u Last of His Big Line Is Disposed Of. Speculative Feeling on Wall Street Is Very Rapidly Im proving. Furnished from special wires to Bolton, da Ruytsr at Co., 102 Third street. CHICAGO, Deo. 2. The Becord-Hierald says: "The last of the big Armour May wheat line, which for a month has been tha most important in the market, was old out yesterday. The day's liquidation amounted to certainly five million bush els; tome put it a great deal higher. As if they give notice that his holding had been let go, he delivered out 760,000 bush els cash wheat In tbe afternoon. This big May line was aocunralated originally early in November at about tbe time Pat ten aold out his holdings of five million bushels. The price on the Patten hold ing dropped to around 73 1-1 cents for the May, and it has been the idea that the packer took on a line of ten million, from that figure up to around 76 cents. The period of leaa than four weeks dur ing the Armour attitude has been dls euaeed; there have boen two turns made on the line. About the middle of the month, when the May wheat had been advanced to 77 1-8 cents, it looked as if half the holding was told out. The un loading waa done almost entirely on one day, November 17. On tfae break of about 1 1-8 cents that followed this liqui dation tha line was apparently jei nutated, The latest sentng which waa com-pleted yesterday, and which cleaned up the holding, began last week at around 77 8-8 cents. Nothing haa been to remarkable about all these big operations In wheat of late as the narrow range within which the purchases have been piled up and unloaded. Patten took on and sold out Ms five million bushels within lees than two cents fluctuation. "Tbe Armour buying was probably all dons from 72 1-2 to 76 cents, and the sell-' ing from 77 7-8 down to 76 cents. That such lines could be taken on and let go within such narrow limits, shows the volume of the wheat trade. It haa at ; the same time been proof of the clever management on the part of the Armour lieutenants that such operations could be carried through without the trade knowing Just what waa under-way. It is not likely that the plan was ever more serious than to make a big scalping turn. No one would start In November, to., buy May wheat with any thought of manipu lation. There has been a profitable turn mB.de and the chances are that leas -will be aeen of the Armour hand In .the wheat pit for some time to come. The traders will now have a chance to see what the price will do without any speculative Leadership. Tine deliveries of wheat yes terday were larger than waa expected. For a time Armour put out 750,000 bush ela In the afternoon. Ware alto put out about $60,000 bushels lata It was all red winter. On the morning dellveriee not over 160,000 bushels, about 150,000 bushels of oats, 2G.0OO bushela of corn and 100,000 bushels of rye went around. It waa sup posed 'all the- elevator people would await the closing of navigation before parting with any wheat. That the red winter wheat waa delivered out yester day is pretty good proof that there la no shipping demand for it." Speculation Improves. NEW YORK, Dec. 8 On the whole. the speculative feeling continues to Im prove, and there Is increasing disposition among tha followers of large interests to buy the active stocks on all recessions. It Is admitted that the market is small and the commission business light 'This condition may prevail for soroutlme, but it la believed tnat goou tracing oppor tunity will be furnished on the long aide, especlaly In stocks like People's Gas, B. R. T.. Missouri Pacific, 'Atchlton, B. JO.. : L T. .Mm the coal .stock,-. Special stress should, be laid on R. I. common in thlt connection. One of the richest brokers in the street, who has. done-from JAtaev,JtQ time, a. very large 1 business . for the leading insiders in K. 1., says: I have no opinion as to what R. I. com mon will do, but the men who, when the old R. I. was soiling at 130, told me I would aee it'quoted at 200, tell me now that R. I. common atock will sell above 80, These men have made good on all their propositions, both in their, stock and railroad enterprises, and I believe they will do so In this case.
