POULTRY TEST FIRM.
Front Street, Anguat 34 Th principal fan
fare of tha Portland wholesale markets today
aia:
Wheat near tha danger saint.
Flour market growing stronger.
Lion coffee advanced 50c.
Fresh salmon la, down Vie.
Potsto market f oea lower.
Cabbage I scarce and up.
Kgg advance about Vic.
Poultry receipt large; demand good.
Veal come faster and la down.
Lower price prevail In hog.
Market glutted wlh cantaloupe.
Local tomatoes coining faster.
Heavy movement In peaches.
Wheat mushes show an advance.
Creamery butter ahowlng Improvement.
Provisions are very firm.
Grape are cheaper ' today.
Wheat Hearing the Danger Point.
With wheat values la Chicago and other cen
ter going lower th tone la the Portland mar
ket continue very strong and at present
prices here tha market la rather atralned.
Mlll.rs all agree that th price I too high
for them to purchase and those that can help
themselves are staying oat ot tha market and
are not making any offera at alL Tboae millers
who are rery abort of supplies are forced to
come Into market and pay exorbitant Ogurea
on account of tha firm holding by tha farm
er. The tendency among the latter la to hold.
They hare almply become wildly Intoxicated
by the recant sensational rises In Talaea all
orer the world and some of them are waltiug
tor the price to strike the 31 mark In thla
city. This figure dees not lock very probable
at tbla time; in fact, It doea not eem a
close as it did when the market was lower.
The northwest la going to produce a rery
large, amount of grata thla year 60.000,000
bubeia being a conaerratlre estimate aad
there la not going to be the thrilling demand
for our stocks tbat some of the grower bare
been led to believe. The crop damage reports
(rem the middle state and from Manitoba bare
been pretty well discounted by the tat rises
and during the laat couple of daya Chicago
haa been ahowlng a slump on this account.
The late aalea mad In the wheat market here
hare been at rery hlgb figure, hut today
there waa an eaaler tendency alt around. It li
thought that valley wheat will command a
rery good figure all through the season 00
account of lta Intenae acarclty.
-Flour Market Gaining Strength.
The flour market la gaining atrength with
the high figures ruling In local wheat and there
haa been a general advance all along the line
of late. There Is much talk In milling clrclea
of a farther advance in prices, but no change
occurred today beyond practically a 10c adranc
in graham. There were some cable thl morn
ing from the Orient, but they were ill aaklng
for Information aa to. the probable future of
tbla market. No aalea are repored.
Lion Coffee Advanoed 60c.
The Woolaey Spice company tbla morning
mad an advance of 50c per hundred pounda In
the quotatlona on Lion brand of package coffee,
which makea the new quotation 113.75, or Bl
below that of Arbuckle and Cor dor of the aame
grade.
Fraah Salmon 7s Down ",c.
With the larger recelpta of fresh salmon
prices on both chlnooka and ateelheada are down
Vic a pound today, with the quotatlona on the
former 7Vic and tha later 7c There la now
quite a aupply of fresh mackerel In from Call
fnrnla. which ta selling at 8c a pound. Lobsters
are coming In larger aupply and are quoted at
lBVic Fresh Meata Are Lower.
A larger sttpply of real now arriving and the
not orer hrtak demand ha caused about "He
drop In price this morning. Although dressed
hog are not coming rery lively, the larger
apply of lire stock haa resulted In a loaa to
quotations . Some beef came on the atreet thla
morning and found a fair -demand a former
Ogurea. The market, though, la in better abape
aad any future fluctuations will very likely be
upward.
The cheaper prlcea on potatoes tn th San
Francisco market ia having tta effect here and
values are about 5c down today with the re
celpta atlll only moderate. The onion market
la very' firm with no changea In price.
Xgg Showing an Advance.
There la an advance of about Vic a doaeu
In the egg market today, the present vslue
ranging from IT to 22c. The recelpta are fair
and are about equal to the demand. A email
shipment waa made to Alaska today by one of
the local dealera.
Poultry Baealpta Are Larger.
Poultry arrivals are showing an Increase, bat
the demand la eueh that everything la cleaned
off the street before the close of Me day.
11-1 oea unchanged. The demand ia good In all
tinea.
Market Glutted With Cantaloupes.
The Front seet marketa are glutted with
cants km pes ot all descriptions snd some sales
have been made aa low a 50c crate. The
price for fancy goods remalna at $1.25. The
aupply of peaches tbla rooming w quite liberal
hut a heavy demand cleaned everything up with
the beet price at 50c box. Crapes are In
snore liberal supnly and the price haa dropped
to SI for the best goods. Local shipments of
tomatoes are larger and valuca are down. Good
cabbage lp scarce and both California and Oris
gon stock la quoted strong at 2c a pound.
The higher valuca In the wheat market have
caused some advance In th. product and today
wheat mushes are quoted higher by 15c a case,
with the present price 33.BO for 2'j pound
package and $2.78 a case for 5 -case lots. , .
Provision Market Very Firm.
There Is more strength In all provision pro
duct, bat no change occured In price today.
Tho eastern houses are still short snd depend
to a great degree upon the local product to fill
their ordera.
Creamery Butter Showing Improvement.

two reasons. One la, they will have a surplus
of grain csra. and they are mo Ting ears any

will be compelled to carry grain eaat. If even

to the coast again In tba shape of flour, thereby
giving tha rsllrosds a double ball. Our third
reason la that ocean rates will go rwry much

In this way. With tneee on ml It Ion a ao apparent

While Ute go r In B. C Mersa'g Uf
ia not quite ao broad at that In Rip Van
Winkle's, being only six days. It is fully
a complete. He has attained fame In
other ways alao, first by losing himself
and then by finding himself. He would
not be surprised to dlscovor that he la
another Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
While Deputy City Auditor Hutrhin
son waa hunting for Morse In the woods
bordering the Sandy road, on the theory
that he had been murdered and robbed,
the missing man telephoned his alster,
Mrs. J. W. Hutchinson, from Biggs, that
be waa to take a train and would reach
here yesterday evening. The salient fea
tures of Morse's remarkable dlaeovery
of himself were recounted exclusively
In yesterday's Journal.
Morse says he remembers that he took
a car to leave the race track Wednesday
afternoon about 6 o'clock. He remem
bers nothing very well after that until
he found himself at Bend. In Crook
county, more than 160 milea from Port
land, mat Sunday. Hla mind waa nssy,
and two days mora were required to re
member that his home ts In Portland
and that he has relatives here. Mr.
Morse stoutly maintains that be drank
only one glaae of beer.
He Informs his relatives that he was
very 111 when he began, to come to hlm
Hlf at Bend and that while on the stag".
bound for Biggs, he was afflicted with
nausea. This convinces him that he was
drugged. He has a dim recollection that
a short, heavy-set man. accompanied
him on the trip. The proprietor or me
hotel at Blgga, where he found he had
not registered, he says, told him that a
man of this description took him there.
Before going to the races laat Wod
neaday Mr. Morse drew 1145 from, sn
east side bank with tha announced In
tention of purchasing five lots at
Qreaham. He bemoans the Impulse
which tcok him to tbe track Instead of
to Qresham. That he won 1100 Is
vouched for by Mr. Morse. Ha might
have won more, but Is not certain. His
mind seems to have been clear when he
talked to Capt, Arthur Cox after reach
ing town.
When he found himself, at Bend, he
had 117 left. It took some money to
travel there. This coin he accounts for
by the fact that It was In a small pocket
near the waistband of his trousers. The
remainder of his 1146. If he remembers
accurately when he sly s he won $100,
was missing.
He could not be seen this morning;. A
girl, who answered the doorbell, asserted
that Mr. Morse Is yet too weak to be
interviewed. She ssld he looks well and
admitted that he had not been struck
on the head.
