es. ' , V,,-' v j. ;,,
Already there Is a tendency to slight

Is the local tomato fresher but sizes
: are generally better than the stock
from the south.

fancy and naturally these and some
from White Salmon are taking the lead
In price and demand. Some from Wil-I
l.imette valley points are within a frac
tion of: the top but even these would
ell higher were trie pacn uniform.
Because of the large offerings of to
matoes from all sections due in this
market during the coming week, the
trade expects a further radical reduc
tlon in values.
Best are today selling at $1.50 a box

Potat6es from Walla Walla are of
fering today on Front street.
Supplies front that section are al
most a novelty in the local trade but
they have been offered several times
in' late years.'' ""-""'".-'v'' '. :.'.;.
Importation' of notatoes from mitnlde
oints has again Wen found necessary
y the commission merchants. Because
of the excellence of the potatoes grown
in the Walla Walla country, one of the
local trade decided to get a carload
from there and today's arrival was the
result.
Potatoes are not being brought here
from the outside because of any short
age in the local crop. Local potato
crop is exnected to be the heaviest in
many years. Farmers are so busy at
tnis time - that they do not have the
time to dig and therefore are not haul
ing to market.'s-':
t On Front street best potatoes are
bringing fronT$1.25 to $1.50 per hun
dred pounds. This is an unusually high
value for this period of the year.

, Farmers Getting Excited. -
Wheat growers are, getting excited
because of the sharp advance recently
in Chicago and European prices. These
have had an effect upon local condi
tions and some of the smaller millers
have been forced into the market.
Very little wheat is now for sale at
any price and one report from the in
terior says that farmers there expect
an advance of 10c a bushel soon,
One lot of wheat was sold in the
Palouse vesterday at 69c for club and
76c for bluestem.
Practically no price Is available
locally at the moment although nominal
quotations are 82c for club and 87c or
bluestem. . ,
-With, the advancing price on wheat,
there was a further rise of 20c a bar
rel In the price of export flour late yes
terday afternoon. This put the quota
tion to $4 a barrel. At the former
price, $3.80, quite a lot of flour was
recently nurchased by both Chinese, and
Japanese interests.
Local patents are firmer. While no
change is shown today the market re
flects ,the improved tone in wheat and
If the latter continues to climb, It is
a mere matter of a short time before
flour will h forced to follow. So say
leading millers.

'Chicago, July 16. This was the most
remarkable day of the week for the
wheat trade and all records were broken
for high prices. -The -market - began
with a break of 1 cent or more, due to
profit taking sales because of weak
spots. .Some showers were reported in
Russia and a little pretense of rain at
some points in Canadian provinces. ,
The weak-turn in the market am not
last long, as bull leaders who had sold
out on the late advance yesterday were
quick to buy again on the break. Com
mission houses had a liberal volume of
i rating oraers wnicn tooK care of most
pf the' wheat thrown on the market
Just after the opening. It soon became
evident that the strong tone had not
aeeenea me iraae. The market was at
once Influenced by a sharp upturn In
price in all northwest markets.
as occurred on previous days of the
ween, mis marKet was quick to follow,
ininicing mat tne trade at Winnipeg and
Minneapolis was in close touch with the
crop situation. There was some indi

There Is very little doing in the hop
market at present, although an occa
sional sale is reported from 11c to 12c,
and once in a while a fraction higher.
There is some talk Of offering 18 o for
something extra select, but growers of
these seem to be holding back for more
money.
According to dealers the crop is not
nearly as good as it was a month or six
weeks ago.
Little business Is reported in other
hop markets.

St Louis sent messages claiming in
lury to winter wheat in shocks. The
trade had conflicting reports by cable
in regard to the Russian crop condi
tions. The substance of whole matter
appears to be that each day of dry
wenmor ana nign temperatures nortn

There was an unexpected turn In the
corn trade for the day. Because of ap
parently fine conditions over tha oom
belt, with additional rains east of the
river, me market started with an easier
tone and a dip to about 60c for Sep
tember and, B9c for May. The selling
on this dip was led b" a number of the
largest individual traders In this mar
ket. Commission people appear to have
gooa -Buying oroers.
There was only moderate advance in
oats prices for the day. The market

Aside rrom some southwest reports
or damage to oats in shocks and the
adverse influence of the drv weather
on the northwestern crop, the conditions
are generally unravoraoie.
The situation in the orovlalon trod
is an unravoraoie one. The trade gen
erally believe that the Backers ar .--
cepting Just such prices as are ordered
ror tne casn product because the de
mand is poor in. the south and from
distributors generally. The lower the
prices on ruture contracts, the poorer
the support appears to be. September

New York, July 16. Trading in the
stock market today was dull and un
interesting. Some week end covering of
accounts caused' recessions in early
trading, but later dullness became the
feature and the close was steady.
The bank statement was very favor
able.; ...-',.
The week closes with an absence of
Intense pessimistic sentiment noted
heretofore, but nevertheless there is
little confidence in the stability of pre
vailing security prices. The Pennsyl
vania strike is perhaps the most serious.
Outlook for cropa will probably have
a distinct bearing oh the course of
securities, and the tenor of the news
emanating from the northwest, togeth
er with tha from the corn belt is still
such as to cause restraint on the part
of financial interests.
The. case "of money abroad "and the
weakness of foreign exchange may have
the effect of inducing gold Imports ear
lier, than usual. Although call rates
have , relatively eased, time rates have
nevertheless displayed a hardenlnar ten
dency and it seems to be the general im
pression among banking Interests that
the demand from the Interior will be
very large this rail.
