1: f V-i ' I f f f 1 F f SHI K TO DATE : TOTALS 'TEH PER CB1T OVER '09 Some Canners Have as Much . as 25 Per Cent More Than a Year Ago This Date While Others Have Smaller Amount ' . According to semi-official Information ' : secured by The Journal, the, total pack of salmon' along the Columbia river this v year la about, 10 per, cent .greater than 'for the same period a year ago. . . Borne canners packed from 15 to 25 ' per cent more fish tnana year ago at this time, while inother Instances only 6 per cent Increase was shown. In still others the pack was sot as great as a year ago., ,k : The run of fish, to date and the catch has been better than a year ago even though it Is far below expectations of -packers. Some of the lower river can ners which make such a small showing In the output to date, sell . practically all of their larger fish to the cold utor " age houses. Cold storage operations along the Co lumbia are said to be 26 per cent greater ' than a year ago; although the exact . " Increase cannot be stated at this time even .by operators themselves. Demand for resh salmon Is Increas ing so fast that It takes about double the amount of salmon to supply the lo cal territory as It did a couple of years go. This Increase Is shown in view of - the small catch in the .Columbia as com pared with- the output of a few years &gK The local fresh fish market Is therefore compelled to continue the lm- : portation of Alaskan salmon to fill the wants of urgent customers. . A Fight in Cantaloupe Trade. A fight between : the Produce Mer chants' association and commission men outside of the association has-, been brought to the war point and a meeting of the association Is scheduled for to night to see what can be done-to shut others out of the cantalouoe-trade here. ' The fight seems to be waging fiercest against the Portland Brokerage com pany and the Producers' .Commission company. Just now the trouble Is over cantaloupes.- . , - Tt is contended by Arakellan Bros.. , kingpins of the cantaloupe trade of the south, that prices here have been held tnn hieh bv -Jobbers and that the move ment has teen restricted. Arakellan. has Joined with houses outside of tmSM association ana proposes iu marnei inn fruit ! wherever he can. The Produce Merchants' association has thrown down the gauntlet and is said to have decided to quit buying from him if others are sold, therefore the meeting tonight Is . awaited with r much interest by the According to Manager Kennedy of the Portland Brokerage company the mat- . ter of trade comDination wui oe Drougni to the attention or the authorities.

Is Caused by Public Opinion Canning Likely at Present Price. , Loganberries dropped to $1 a crate for bent quality along Front street to day,., Somo merchants . were asking more than' this.. The market showed quite a' heavy supply of "leakers"' and these .were hard to move at 75c a crate; , - TotaL supplies of loganberlies along the street were not so heavy today and the price 'dropped from sheer force ot general opinion. Above the dollar mark, canning eperatlons would be on a very small scale and the fruit is not consid ered marketable for anything lse in its fresh form. - It is not likely, however, except tin der stress of temporary glut, that good loganberries will sell much below fl a crate this season, because some of the heaviest growers Intend to dry all their surplus. . This alone will remove a very liberal supply from public offering. Raspberries were In larger supply this morning and sales were made at $1.00) 1.25 a crate. ' Few went at the lower figure, -however. ' Wild blackberries are coming for ward slightly better and are holding arouna iuiouic a pouna.t - Some quite good quality strawberries came forward this morning and sold up to 81.75 a crate for 24s. . .

Sharker of the Sharkey Commission company, , just re turned from California, the movement of California cattle in this direction Is well nigh exhausted. " Hogs are firmer and prices are higher all around. The greater strength in the east is the principal contributing cause.
