XaXAD SHOWS AW ADTASrCB TO-
SAY-EaaS AIE BXOKEX.
Front Street, March 22. The principal Items
of,' Interest In the Portland wbolesale markets
today are: . . ..
liogs show fmod tons.
Whit lead is higher.
Eggs still ranging up.
Poultry market very Arm.
Another car dressed poultry comes. -
'Potato situation remains dulL ..
Onions drag wearily. .
Hops are still Inactive.
Some valley wheat selling. ,
Flour Is-verjr dull.
. Busiass Shows aa Xmprorsmcat. -
There waa conalderabl Improvement in th
tone of- the business in the Kront street mar
kets today. Th street showed a livelier ton
than for some time previous and It now looks
aa ir to weather will bring still further 1m
provements. Fruit of -all kinds shows a larger
sate., uranges especially are now selling well,
Th supply of the best grade of apple Is about
exhausted and, prices are booming.
v, Whits L4 Is Higher.-v,; :
According to the. Northwest Paint A Oil com
pany th .price of whits lead shows an advance.
The new ruling prices see: Ton lots. 634c:
600 lb. lots, 7c; less lots, 7e. . ' .
Sullnsss la Potato. .
Th potato situation for shlDtilna ' Is verv
dull with th dealers showing little inclina
tion to buy. some sale bar lately been re
ported a high as 1 cent a pound for the -very
best grades, but --beyond this figure no sales are
reported. Th inquiry from Ariaona, J Texas,
and Missouri river points is showing an improve
ment, but very little - business ss yet has been
transaeted In the latter territory. The freight
rat Is so heavy that It leaves th shippers
her unable to compete. A better tone Is
expected in the- California markets within the
next few weeks. - Locally the demand for
potatoes Is very good and' uaual quotation are
prevailing.
Onions Be tain Former Dullness.
Th onloo situation is dull as ever and stocks
are fast decaying. This results In a large loss
to the buyer who paid very high figures when
ths market was so strong about a month ago.
There is very little demand for onions from
California on account of the poorness of stocks.
: Oysters Esmaln fioaros.
Th supply of oysters Is lust as scare
as ver snd the only arrivals today were a
small quantity of opened Olympus. Sboalwater
bay oysters are now entirely out. Th fish
market shows a scarcity In Columbia river
smelt. Halibut and salmon are In large enough
supply for th demand.
Eggs Ar Banging Upward Again.
Th receipt In the egg market are ault
liberal, but an excessive demand continue
both from th city trad snd from th north.
On of th northern cities yesterday telegraphed
an offer of 17 cents for 1,000 esses of eggs,!
nut It had to Da refused, ss tbst amount could
not be secured on the street. Today th orlc
of eggs In round lota. Is quoted at 17 cents.
Baa x ranoisoe Helps Butter.
The San Francisco butter market -la showing
a temporary firmness snd this makes the quo
te tlons shout th ssm a those In this city.
This condition makes the receipts from that
city Into tbia market smaller than they wo Id'
otherwise b and enables the local ;brnda. to
move better. The market I, however, very
weak and is Inclined to show an accumula
tion. ; . - -wi ; 1 ; V
Why ths Prio Is Kept TJp.
Th nght between th various creamery snd
condensed milk plants for cream is what is
causing the price of butter to show such a
high figure in this city. The butter manu
actnrer are forced to pay such a price for
their aiaterial that they cannot afford to sell
at lower rate. This condition' Is 'Very likely
to b even worse than it is now, for the con
dcnaarles ar enlarging ' and a number of new
creameries of large site bare lately begun
operations. As matters now stand the creamery
men claim that they cannot secure half enough
material to run their Institutions. Prices of
butter remain unchanged. V
ValUy Whaat Is Belling. ' !
Daring the' pant few days there has been
about 80,000 bushels of valley wheat sold.
Tbea transactions iwere mad at figures about
1 cent over the quotations ruling her. Th
other grades of wheat are very dull and without
th small aalea of valley ther would hav been'
no business at slL
Floor Xarkst Vary thill. -
At present th flour market 4 a very small
on and business is only nomtnaL The Orient
in not In the market at all and the local con
sumption is not over large. 80 me of the jobber
think that If th baker' strike continue for
soms time It will cause a further break in
the market There Is but tittle Inquiry to?
flour from the rets Hers. In exceptional cases
lower prices are ruling.
Poultry Xarkst la lima.
Ths receipts of poultry remain. much under
the demand and the highest prices on th list
ar ruling today. Th receipts today consisted
mostly of hens, bat the demand has taken a
sudden switch and now calls for young springs.
Former prices are ruling. ,.

Chicago, March 22. Logan A Bryan say:,:
Wheat Prlcea are nnchanaed to Ke hlaber.
Th market was Irregular on a smaller volume
of business. On this strength tbe pit was dls-
ptaea to ouy wneatvana during the eariy part
of the dav showed a a-reat deal of strength.
but the close was wetk With tbe early Advance
lost. Good rain through th winter wheat belt
east or tn Missouri river. The general ton
of crop advice from th southwest I fsvortble.
We still think a good scalping market 1 a
very likely proposition for so in time to come.
On general condition as - tbey sre we ee no
urgency for Its selling higher, snd while - It
may be a purchase for moderate profits on sharp
breaks, we are inclined to think It may be old
on narp rallies. .. v
; ' Hothiug Saw in Corn. -In
corn there nothing particularly new
In th situation. ' Th nit following 1 bearish.
It haa been for som timepast snd the support
mat na neen noticeauie was today iscaing.
Tbe ton wa heavy, and tbe traders thought
there wa more or los celling through brokers.
The 'output of contract corn from private
nouses wss larger and was prooamy a pore
active argument. Th Improvement in the
cash situs t Ion is not markedV
-'V'' Oata Wr .Htavy.
In eats It wa a havv market thmnrhont
th session. It lacks leadership on th bull
aid and while tbe cash house bsvs bees
buyers of May stuff of late, they were less
in evidence today and there seemed to be a,
little wcakeulna In the aeneraL ton of the
cash situation. Th Patten Interest seem
bearish and working on th abort tide.
Provisions Close Irregular.
The Provision clo was trreantar hnt m the
Whole -wa without much chance. Local hoe
receipt were lea than expected snd this with
me eariy trengin in grain gave a firm market
during , the . morning. Outside buyHig wa
lighter, however, and th packing interest
which bonght veaterdav seemed sellinr on tha
rallies. Tb whole tone' and action wer not
ably esay. Receipts of hog at western mar
kets wer light, but there 1 nothlnar to indi.
cat that It Is more than temporary. Ship

RETtEW Or HOP XARKET, -
, Th New York Prodncers' Price Current says:
Th hop market continue in the cam dull,
llstles condition ss bss characterised tbe trade
for tb past seven weeks. Ther I sesreelv
anything doing here, but nothing offering and
00 inaication 01 any weatnes on the part of
holder. It 1 doubtful If any desirable hop
could b purchased any cheaper than late full
asking price, yet any attempt to realise would
necessitate concessions. Weather continue win
try, which curtail the cenaumption of beer and
brewer are not showing a particle of Interest,
though considerable contracta are reported with
merchant growers on the coast for three to five
years st 16c. Tbe only feature of Interest on th
coast Is tb reported ssle of 1,000 bale ssld to
be for export and ststed to have been at 27c;
otherwise tb market on the Pacific coaat con
tinue quiet and bolder generally firm In their
view. - Remaining etock sre certainly light
and It Is hoped that with tb advent of warmer
weather and an Increased consumption of beer
that brewer will be compelled to take oa more
hop.
Xh Weekly Commercial New of San Fran
cisco ay:
While ther I a continued lack of demand
In the bop market there is little weakness In
prices except In th case of new crop, for
which buyer have (lightly reduced their bid.
Stock In th east and oa the coast ar very
light, and tb market I a waiting one. brew
er being poor buyer on account of cold wea
ther, and holders witlng a warmer period.
The Increase in the new acreage promise to be
heavy. la this state, about 8,000 to 8.600 acres
will be $et out to tb new plant, about 1.000
ere of which will be In tbe Sonoma district.
Ther will be an Increase of about 8.60O acre In
Oregon and 2,500 to 8.600 seres In Washington.
Prices on new crop In Washington rang from
15c to 17e; In Oregon new business has been
don at 15c; in California 19c to 20c Is still tha
ruling rste.

FOHEIOX CROP KEPORT.
BroomhaH'g Liverpool Corn Trade News says:
United Kingdom Tbe weather of the paat
week has been finer and colder, bnt with oc
casional falls of snow. On the whole It ha
been much more agreeable than the continuous
rains of the early part of January and Feb
ruary, and besides It bas been mnch more
fsrorable for agriculture. On light land In
th ooth of England farmer started drilling
seed aa early a last Tuesday, and as tbs
week progressed the work became almost gen
eral, and, on th whole, tbe seed bed appeared
to be satlafactori On heavy soils seeding bss
continued to be impossible and th (harp frosts
experienced tb last nlgbt or two may cause
further delay. But few will grumble at this
delay If fine weather follow the frost, for th
Improved condition of th land will amply make
mend for a little extra waiting. Tb small
nes of th area under wheat in the United
Kingdom continue to attract attention and
we fancy that wben th official figure are
published It will be found that the total 1
sensstlonally small. There will certainly be a
reduction of 26 pet cent, and possibly much
mora. . ... ,
Kassls Mall advices continue to mention very
mild westber In the south, snd the rivers ar
reopening to navigation. , 80 far, the outlook
ror tne crop would appear to bve (omewhat
Improved, bnt It 1 evident that If the mild
period 1 followed by a sudden return of severe
frost, the Utter stat would be worse thsn tb
first. The (hipping movement I well main
tained, but mainly at tb expense of docks;
however, om arrival sre slready coming
down by barge and If tbe river keep free of
vo, wupimes vj iocs roil ips win soon mere
and do something toward replenishing tb stock.
neporia now nave nine to say about the war,
and it doe not appear likely tbat it will Inter
fere actively with tbe export movement.
Roumania After om rain, a eood deal of
snow fell last week, snd tbe crops are now
nnner cover, npring seeding na been com
menced, but of course the return of winter
will have stopped tbe work. Exnorts fell off
sharply last week and,- although rather mora
grain Is now arriving at tb shipping ports,
th quantities ar still light.. ,
Austria-Hungary Th weather last week wa
variable, and tha tempentur falling sharply
toward tbe end, but tbs crop In many dis
trict, hare still a good cover of snow.
Argentina Our cables contlnne to report fa
vorably et the corn crop, but a rumor of damage
ha been circulated In . America. Shipment
last week were on a liberal scsle, and th stock
further Increaced. Attention, 1 now centered on
tbe railway men' trlk. which 1 said to he
'.reading, snd threatens to , cut off tbe ar-
riTais at in ports, wnicn in turn will irfect
the shipments. 'A telegram received today say
that tb effort of the government to ai-rsnr
. settlement of the strike bar ended In tail
or, and buslne 1 paralysed.
Austrsissis uooa rains hav fallen In Ads,
trslls, And these should Insure plenty of winter
pasturage, and enable farmer to make start
with, plowing and feeding under favorable con
dition. Shipments continue on a liberal scale.
India W bear of no complaint concerning
the crop, harvesting of which should now b in
progress. A belated official report of Bengal
saya tbat also there tbe are under wheat in
creased by 84,000 acre condition 94 per cent.
We bear that not much new crop 1 being
offered, but there Is no lack of old, snd ship
ments may Increase. f .;.
France The weather ha turned drier and
colder, - being ' much mors favorable for th
crop. 1 Tbe weather will also favor threshing,
nd if It last farmer will onn be hl to re
sume seeding. 1 Growers have offered very spar
ingly on country markets, bnt. tbe recent rapid
sdvance bss been followed by s r section, for
millers found it more difficult thsn ever to sell
their flour, snd ss av consequence would buy
little or no whest.
