A decHtie of 20c per hundred pounds la noted In tho sugar market today. The flrat change was made by the California & Hawaiian company anil became effec tive at 8 o'clock this morning. Shortly afterward a similar reduction wan an nounced by the Western Refinery, which put both product on" the same basis. The cause of the decline Is the recent lowering of values on raw and refined sugar In New York, refined dropping to 6c and raw sells around $3.95. Poultry Belling Lower. A decline of about Ho is noted In the chicken market for the past L'4 hours, following the very liberal ar rivals and a rather slow tone in the buying. Fancy hens are bringing around ' 14c, with ordinary lots a fraction less than this. Spring chickensbroilers and fryers, are selling at a lower range, today's values being 15fy 16c, according to quality. There is a slightly better showing of quality In local egg receipts, but the Improvement has not yet been marked because most of the arrivals were gath ered during the heated period. Hetter quality is expected the coming week. Cutting Price of Batter. While practically not enough butter is being made by local creameries to supply the full wants of the trade here, some or the makers in rear or the in flux Of California and eastern stock have begun cutting their values and this may force a general decline In the market within the next few days. One cream ery is still asking 32 He for its butter but the general market stands at 31 Vc, with one or two sellers letting go at 30c. Cheese market continues to show firm ness, with a very liberal outward move ment, but prices are showing no dispo sition to change. Bweet Potato Outlook, he outlook for aweet potato prices seems to re goon, because or the dam age to a large part of the crop as re cently told In The Journal dispatches. Another car arrived in this morning in quite good shape, and while the demand is not brisk, an improvement Is soon due. 'the trouble with the sweet po tato demand at this time seems to be Similar to that which ruled at the start ef the season in cantaloupes. Like the fruit, the sweets arrived In earlier than expected and the trade was scarcely prepared to take hold in earnest. pples Show Small Sixes. very small sizes and general poor quaniy is noien m most or tne arrivals of local arples to date this season. Sup- rlles of full apples nre so liberal that he trade has experienced much diffi culty in rorclng a movement even with prices as low as 40 3 50o a box for or dinary stock. The best the market is going at the present time for the fanci est goods coming Is 11.261.50. Local pears are In better supply and somewhat better quality is shown. Most of the arrivals from The Dalles sell around $1 a box, but. some select goods sell at J1.25. Brief States of the Trade. With enormous supplies lower prices are ruling on tomatoes. Some sales down to 40c for good stock, but n.ost everything sells at 60c. A fractional decline is noted In peach market prices Cantaloupes are slightly lower, owing to the mixed sizes now romlne. Ouaittv good. Watermelon trade slow because Of unfavorable weatner. Dealers report the disappearance of Columbia river fresh salmon from the local market and supplies will now come from the coast streams. Values un changed. Large slr.es of dressed veal have formed the bulk of late arrivals and therefore prices have seldom reached the top. Dressed hogs are In firm request, but few are willing to pay over 8c, even for the best. potato market Is rather quiet, but values are holding. Larger offerings are shown In local onions, but total supplies are still (--mall j Front street sells at the following prices. : nose paid snippers are less regular commissions: Butter, Zgr and Poultry.

There Is a call for feed stock, but prices ure no IiIkIi that few snies are reported Cattle market shows firmness espe cially for good stuff, which is general ly alisent from the yards of late. Few sales of steers have been made as high as 14 lately owing to the poor quality of arrivals many transactions being around $ H . f. 0 5i 3. 75. There were no hogs In the yards to day and in consequence the market was disposed to gather firmness with the top at JT.
