EB XECEZPTS TODAY. fc
Front Street, Feb. IS. The principal
items of Interest in the Portland whole
sale markets today were:
Eggs growing weaker.
. . Creamery butter lower."
Poultry ranges higher,
.; Honey will be scarce.
Smelt la higher. - I
' Salmon to advance. ;.
prisons are going up. , . .
Potatoes only steady.
' More inojuiries from Japan for flour. :
"Wheat U higher.
Cabbage Is scarcer. '
Orsamsry Batter Qolng sown.
The. demand for anything bui tha very
best grades of creamery butter is very
small, with the stocks large and show
ing an accumulation, . The receipts or
the best stocks are about even with the
demand, and the quotations In that line
are about the same. Various prices are
ruling' for the off grades, soma sales
being made as low as 20c, while others
were as high as 25c. The' best grades
are Quoted from 290 to SOo a. pound.
There is a large amount of eastern and
California creamery in the market, and
this causes the demand for local stocks
to show a, weakness except at the lower
figures' which are being quoted on the
outside stocks, Tnen there is also a
large amount of renovated ajid eastern
tub butter in the market This class of
goods causes the demand for local dairy
and country store product to remain un
sold. Some of the latter grades have
been sold lately as low as 11c a pound. '
Eggs Crrowiag- Waaieir, '' ,'; '
There was a slight Increase in the re
ceipts of eggs today, but the demand la
now strong enough in this city to take
about all the arrivals at printed quota
tions. There Is not, however, so much
call for eggs aa there was several days
ago,- and a. further increase in receipts
woVild have but one. effect a weaker
market, and consequently lower prices.
Today eggs were quoted from 27o to
27 toe a dosen, with sales at both fig
ures. - There . is at present no demand
for. eggs from the outside markets. The
sound is getting -all the eggs It wants,
and this keeps the British Columbia mar
ket -well supplied without sending totnls
City. - : ' ; xrt ! i;
, .; Poultry Banges Xiffhar.
The poultry market is very firm, with
the receipts small and Inadequate to the
demand. All kinds of stocks, with the
exception of turkeys, are quoted firm,
tha latter being in liberal receipt, with
the demand rather smaller. Prices - to
day on mixed chickens are about He
higher.
Honey Will Be Scarce, ,
The lack of rain in California, during
the past season will be a -big factor in
regulating the quotations on honey dur
ing the coming season, The secretary
of tha California Honey Producers' as
sociation Is authority for the statement
that .no honey will ba shipped from
Southern California this year unlesa rain
comes very Boon. M. H. Mendelson. a
large California honey man.'Teports that
the bees are dependent on heavy rains,
and they must come soon.' The greater
portion of Southern California noney is
of the saga variety, xne aage Diossoms
come about April 1, and the honey crop
depends very largely oh the amount of
saga flowers. Eucalyptus has bloomed
well In Southern California this year,
and in ' sections where this blossom Is
available and' in tha orange districts
bees will have an advantage. The oat
put of extracted honey la expected to
be very small this year.
; Smelt Is SviffHer.
The receipts of Columbia river smelt
ara still very small, and today the few
arrivals were, easily disposed of at 8c
a pound. Fishermen ejepect to have an
other large run of amelt in the CowlIU
If the weather should turn warmer. Tha
receipts of fresh salmon are still very
short, and the various dealers in this
city expect higher prices to prevail dur
ing tha coming week If conditions do not
change. Higher prices are especially
expected In steelheads.
' Onions Still Oolsr Up.
Onions were , higher today. -Dealers
out In' the country are now freely offer
ing 13 a hundred for the best stocks.
and. still tha farmers ara holding on.
Soma buys of ordinary stocks- up. the
country were reported made late yes
terday, at 31.75 a hundred.
' Potatoes Jost Steady.
Tha potato market for shipping is
barely steady with 90 cents the very top
of tha market for buying. The high
prices now ruling in the San Francisco
market and tha prospects of an early
decline has caused some large shipments
of late. The city trade for both pota
toes and onions shows an improvement
Wheat Za Higher.
Tha determination of tha farmers and
warehousemen to hold their wheat stocks
for higher figures .has caused some
slightly advanced quotations to be paid
by some of the millers who are badly
In need of supplies.' Tha principal call
just now la for Valley grade, and as
this grids la especially short, not a
single shipload remaining unsold, tha
prices are seeking a higher level..
Japan Makes Mora Inquiries.
Again today were inquiries received
for flour from Japan, and that country
Is rapidly coming to "the prices offered
by the millers of this city. At present
their prices ara about S cents a barrel
under those asked, but the millers expect
to sell some flour, within the next week.
Locally the flour market is firm and
looks higher In sympathy with the
higher figures on wheat..
Cabbage Za BUgkar.
There Is a dearth of cabbage of any
kind along Front street today and prices
ara showing an advance of $2 per 100.
Celery Is very scarce for tha good stocks
and prices are up. Cauliflower la
scarcer than for soma time and higher
figures are expected.
Opinions on Today's ICarkeis. ,.

Chicago, Feb. 13. Logan & Bryan ad
vise: - - i- .
In wheat it was a broad, active mar
ket With fewer evidences of general
speculative confidence shown. Outside
traders are accumulating holdings.. . The
trade is largely in July and September.
There seems to be plenty of wheat for
sale at the advance today and .the trade
concludes that the Armour holdings are
being somewhat reduced. The foreign
markets show i that strength and for
eign buyers are bidding tnore freely for
wheat . in thi country and prices are,
ntgnor. we ara" still considerably out
of lines with, those abroad. The -southwest
reports , rather increasing com
plaints of dry weather. Argentine ship
ments were .large. Our visible, supply
will show a decrease on Monday. The
active market would Indicate that the
buying confidence has yet culminated
but it is. a nervous market and there
should be sharp setbacks on which to
buy, .",.'-;.-'.-.';."..; Vta.',
Corn Was Hlgbar.
Th corn market was to i cent
higher. There were no special features
In the day's operations except those
which indicate a broad, general trade
and a bullish sentiment Tha - cash
situation is secondary. So far, how
ever, the advance does not seem to have
materially increased the movement from
first hands.. The leaders In the market
seem to be playing a scalping opera
tion, selling on the bulges and buying
on tha breaks. It may, perhaps, be sig
nificant that it does not get back to the
previous high point.
Oats Ara Speculative,
There Is not much price-making fac
tor In the oats situation, but then the
whole situation Is speculative. The ac
tion of the market for the past week
would indicate to us that the Patten
holdings have been considerably re
duced, but is partially reinstated at the
decline. A good scalping market seems
likely.
" Provisions a Grade Xasler.
Provision prices are a shade easier.
There was free selling early by the
leading packers on very large receipts
of iOgs. The support still comes from
the outside trade. The estimate of stocks
howa-increa ses-lrr pork and af a "and
about unchanged for ribs. We are in
clined to -advise our friends who are
holders of pork and ribs to prefer the
July option.

Despite the fact that few realty
,dealers expected much business this
week, the grand total for the first five
days amounted to $133,774, as againt
$115,228 during the same period of tbe
previous weet The weather conditions
Were such that there was hardly' any
time when property could be shown to
intending purchasers with advantage,
During the week there were 116
transfers of property, not including
two made to the city of Portland, for
which no charge was made, as against
125 sales during the previous week.
The transfers or the eaat side number
99 and' those oh the west side 17. The
total sales of property on the west'aida
amount to $68,960 as against $44,314 on
the east side. The gain On salea on the
west side amounts to 324.146. Last
week the section north of the Burnslde
bridge on the east side had mora than
half of the sales made in the entire city.
while this week central East Portland
has a majority.
The principal sales during the week
were: s
Thomas L. El lot t and wife to United
States,' parcel of land, sections li and
12, township 1 north, range 1 west,
$6,450. . --i

Oaln la Wast Bid Permits,
' Something out of tha ordinary oc
curred In- the building line this week.
There were 17 building permits issued
during the first five days of tha week
and of this number nine were for tha
west side and eight for tha east side.
The permits on the west side amounted
to $38,250, while those on tha east side
show a tout of $7,960. Most of
the permits Issued on tha west aide
were for the northern portion of the
T1 whlle . thoseft Tha- astaide were
for central East Portland. This latter
section of the city is showing the
largest gains in building operations.
During the week there waa not a per
mit Issued for' large structures, but
many ara expected during the coming
week. The principal operations now in
the building line seem to ba the erection
of flats.'
- Samuel L. Bro.wn, a local cigar box
manufacturer, has decided to erect
Urge fiat on the southwest 'corner of
West Park and Yamhill streets, to coat
in the ' eighborhood of $25,000. The
ground was purchased from the estate
of - Koawell Lamson and tha purchase
price is not known. Tha deed has not
yet been Bled. Mr.- Brown says that the
flat will be 100 by 100 feet and will be
three stories in height. Tha ground
floor will be -divided into flats and the
two upper floors into single rooms for
lodgers. The building will ba one of
tha most modern in tha city, and will
have both hot and cold water in every
room.
Plats Pa tha Beat.
"Apartment houses, , say Lewis A
Lewis, architects, "are tha. best paying
inveatments In this city. Any apart
ment house within walking distance of
the business section, will -pay if the
building Is rightly constructed. It must
have the rooms so arranged that the
sitting room can be used aa a bedroom.
This can be easily dona by building a
small alcove for tha bed and during tha
day time a curtain can ba drawn and tha
bed will be out of sight. The kitchens
should be arranged with kitchen fix
tures built In the house. A dresser, a
sink with cold water can also be pro
vided. Then comes a table built against
the wall with a hinge so that it can be
let down when not In use; A gas range
completes tha list of furniture. After
these are provided there will be little If
anything else to put In the; house and
the cost tof furnishing tha house will be
considerably reduced," ;
DESTITUTE FAIL TO
CAST A BALLOT
A peculiar fact Is shown by the rec
ords at tha offices of tbe county board
of health and relief. Indicative of the
lagging Interest in political affairs taken
by those who have touched bedrock in
finance. The large majority of those ap
plying for relief do not register or go
to the polls. ........
It Is shown by the records that in
most of the canes the applicants have
not voted for 10 or 12 years. Many
young men whom ill-health has reduced
to straitened circumstances have never
voted at all.
Among the active voters applying for
county aid, the naturalised foreigner is
always found. Not a single foreigner
whose name is registered at the office
of the board failed to cast a vote at
the last election.
Grand Army men generally cast their
ballots. It Is rarely that one presents
himself who failed to vote. at a recent
election. , .

fully but this may be' followed by
rain which will spoil them aOL Tha
only thing w can do Is to hav every
thing ready so that we have our exhibit
when tho blossoms ara at their best"
