A sharp decline of 13 a Jon la noted
Jn ,the price of coarse and. half-ground
'alt -this morning; the new pricea taking
vfect at once. Since the Ban Francisco
.earthquake, salt quotations on the Pay
, ,fcffic Coast Ifave been abnormal owing
,10 tne snort supplies. The quake caused
iiKuiiviea i eaii in ine vicinuy or nun
"mnrun r,H .i ,,
Francisco and since that time supplies
po the coast have not until recently
.been up to the requirements ' of , the
trade. Salt manufacturers have been
behind with their orders for nearly two
years. This condition brought about an
t acute range of prices. With the lesser
supply the trade became Beared and or
' tiered more salt than It actually needed.
This forced the price to even' higher
figures than ruled in the days of the
talt combine; later dissolved by an fir
mer of the supreme court In California.
. Today's pricea on salt In less than car
f lots show: '
Coarse Half-ground. 100s, 111; 5sv
Ill.aO; table dairy. 60c. 816.6fc 100s,
'bales,- S2.&6. i , '. .
Kmtt Orders for Btorage Butter.
;' In the butter market many heavy or
ders for storage stock are being; received
Jiere from Alaska and Yukon territory.
'Already , there are orders in for about
IB cars to go-to -the far north as soon
. 'as the price gets to the bottom. Local
-atorage orders are likewise arriving;
very freely and from present Indications
.Turner-will net-go ,a,g;lng any time
during the flush of the season.
-1 Havel Oranges Mora Higher.
The'r la art advance all "along; the' line
in... navel oranges owing! to the very
scant supplies and values are today
' ruling, as high as $3.36 a box.
Lemons are firmer with prices un
changed here, aa yeU . ;
Potato trade, .to . the , south and the
southwest la .still . very heavy. Local
. market, holding better.. "'
. Bennuda onions are finding a good
sale at fdtmer prices. Quality holding;
better Ahnn.' usual for early stock.
Cherries are arriving in rather poor
shape and. the market ia softer with
' most -arrivals selling at a concession in
valuer v
Receipts of strawberries were not bo
' liberal. :today- but "on account "of the
mlxpd quality pricea are ranging be
tween $4.60 and $2 per crate of , 16
( boxes. The high price 'stands fyr fancy.
Willamette aalmon Xua xs Better.
A better run of salmbn is reported in
. the Willamette river and local supplies
while heavier, are- finding a very free
sale at top figures. Present arrivals
from the Willamette consist mostly of
chlnooks and eteelheads are in nominal
I display.
Halibut is down to 8c a pound today
with more
uoerai supplies rrom tne
; sound.
According to reports received from
' the lower Columbia this morning, the
prospects are for a" very good run of
shad dujrtng the next few, days, during
which prices will likely drop.
Brief Botes of the Trade.
Dressed meats did not arrive In very
good, eh ape during the 24 hours and some
sacrifices in prices were made accord
ingly. Change in weather is therefore
we loom. .
Hut a small amount of wool is moving
at this time and the market can scarce
ly be called open as yet
Good tomatoes are rather scarce but
some Florida stock ia expected.
Eggs are firmer with sales ranging
between 17H and 17c tosay.
Chickens are In quite good supply with
dealers unwilling to take hold because,
some of the receivers are trying to ad
vance the price.
Front street sells at the following
prices. Those paid shippers are less

Subscribers i to Automatic Home Tel

In . their ' pockets as the result of a
semi-annual: dividend, just paid , through
S. C. Reed. Portland representative of

It is said Portland holds about 2 peTP"'0? ,to, , bo5rd, ','?uft,on:fk-

Telephone plants, and the Northwestern
Long" Distance company, all of which
aggregate $6,750,000.
The Portland plant is--bonded for

the Spokane plant for $1,200,000, and

pf. them having been subscribed by cred
itors of the old Oregon Trust.ft Savings
bank, which paid dollar for dollar of 6
per cent securities in this manner to a
large numoer or Its depositors.
Conditions Steadily Improve.
The Securities are now rerardml as
high class. The -continued operation of
the Home Telephone plants demon
strates their practicability and thenrBt-
ciass service given is calculated to in
crease public respect for their., first

uuitua were originally placed on the
market at 90, the cost of flotation be
ing but 10 per cent, and the element of
graft being absent from construction
pf the plants, is now having its effect
in. addition to that of prompt payment
of the interest.
The financial situation Is undoubtedly
Improving every week in Portland, de
spte the continued shyness in the mat
ter of bank clearances. The clearing
house week ending yesterday showed
total clearings of but $4,923,803 as com
pared to $7,077,911 for the same, week
a year ago.
The month of April Just closed re
corded total clearings, of . $25,794,813,
which was $6,500,000 lees than the
clearings for April, 1907. Yet, the gen
eral business of the city and state is
rapidly Increasing over the volume of
business at the beelnnlnir nt tho ...
and the last four months have shown an
enormous amount of buildlna ODera
tlons begun in Portland. No city on
the COast Shows hulMlnar normlt, n

Portland.
r rOniMy 26V-46 months after passage
by the legislature, the new Oregon
banking law becomes . fuliv nnomtr.
excepting as to publication of the re
ports made by banks to the state bank
examiner. The legislature allowed 18
months In which the law was to become
fully operative as to publication of re
Pprta. this period dating from the ex
piration of the 90 daya that elapse be-
r""o 01 an act ana its
going Into effect

The provision
as follows: " v "
"Within 12 months after this act goes

this state at the time of taking effect
of this act shall make report to the
""' an. examiner, on blanks fur

bank shall pay the fee provided in this
act. Within 18 months after the tak
ing effect of this act all Buch banks
shall conform to and In all respect com
ply with all the provisions of this act.''
The fees to be paid for examination
range from $20 to 1200, depending upon
the amount of tne capital stock of the
bank. A bank with $10,000 to $25,000
pays a fee of $20 for examination. A
capitalization of $200,000 requires a fee
of $70. A bank with $500,000 and under
$750,000 pays $100.
