ami receivers says It Is harder - to ,
cure .;43c for selected stock. although
so far as known, pd transactiona have
fccon .below. this figure recently.;
, , Weakness has been so pronounced
elsewhere for fresh eggs recently that
the storage operators have been forced
to shade their values In order to Invite
a better movement-, : t " t ' . . ..
Stocks of eggs In storage t are still
unusualjy heavy -In the east and hold
ers are therefore quite anxious, to, un
load with quickest dispatch. - .
Uwing to the sharp decline In Cali
fornia prices recently, the Fuget- sound
markets have been taking a larger per
cent of the southern product than east
ern stock. The California eggs can be
landed In the northern cities at a lower
price than the Oregon product and that
is the reason-why-the trade is going
there. r- rif:v.;,;ii';,;.v..

Demand Is Increasing and the
- Supplies Not So Libera!;
Stock Breaks; Open.
: Cabbage market is showing consider
able strength at this time . and prices
are holding generally at $1.50 per een
tal along Front'street for crated stock.
.Dealers generally report: that ; the
quality of recent arrivals "of cabbage is
not so gotj. a largo per cent or the
stock bursts open a day or- so after
being" received, rendering It unfit tb
sell except at widely shaded prices.- ' ' .
--Owing to the greater demand for cab
bage it Is expected that the market
hereafter will, show increasing strength.
The ---crop was not up to expectations.
A large per cent of It matured' earlier
than usual and thus makes the late
crop smaller.
Sour kraut manufacturers,' especially,
are. disappointed' at this showing and
tnererore it is quite uaeiy mat a rur

According to grain Interests the mar
ket for wheat and flour is likely to re
main steady diinns thar remainder of
the season. While some exporters are
not quoting: above 80c , track - basis for
club wheat, 81o. is being offered by.
others. t
"There Is likely to be a demand for
what wheat we have around present
rices," said Theodore B. Wilcox, presid
ent of the Portland Flouring Mills to
The Journal this morning, -
"uotn wheat and riour are now on an
export basts and therefore I see no
reason why - there should be any re
markable dee Una In the Dries - offered
producers . I have felt all along that
the market would not remain low, neitn
er was a sharp rise expected..
"There has been so little weakness in
the forward : wheat "situation, .buying
goes forward in - small waves. It Is
dull one time and firm and active the
next ' ; Market today . shows r less ten

; "Export flour business Is in a'strong
position, , We . received some Chinese

KlaLer; Wolf & Netter this , morning
closed the deal for the purchase of tbe
Weston lot at forest Grove. The lot
included 126 bales of choice goods and
the price paid was 13o a pound.
; This was the only . transaction made
public but the ' hop trade In general
feels bullish inclined and therefore a
further fraction may be added to the
I rice of best goods. i .... i4,.:' .:..
mere is quite a rair demand for ex
tra faney offerings and holders of these
are not inclined tot let go unless over
a premium over former transactions, i
Trade in the Kngllsh market is quiet
pending the holidays but owing to the
scarcity of offerings of choice goods
the price Is held firm. No business- of
importance is reported at . other - cen-
ters owing to the fact that growers are
asking , more money for the
few lots
remaining jjm their hands. ,
Cbicaga Dec. 10. Today's wheat mar
ket was not greatly different in char
acter from the three 'days previous, as
there was evory indication of resting
orders on tho carlyi decline as if . on
distributed buying orders by leaders and
then an abundance of long wheat , for
sale from the smaller bull leaders. ,
Liverpool news, this morning was on
the side of the sellers as the price
there was lower and cables told
of heavier and cheaper Offerings of
choice Argentine Wheat. - r
Beerbohm Is quoted - as saying that
Europe , has ' stocks ln . sight now ; for
several months. - . -
Minneapolis bad a large run, 350 cars
today. , Stocks - increased 95,000 bushels
for 24 hours. - The cash' premiums In
that market were at a little decline
with mills and .elevators: fair- buyers.
It is true there is a fairly firm cash
wheat tone and prices here are relative
ly cheaper, but a long as the demand
Is slack, there is not enough in this
to encourage buying. v - . '
What the bull leaders will eventual
ly do with their holdings no one knows,
but the fact that they exist prevents
aggressive selling on tbe dips, . which
might otherwise be-felt '. v V, - ,

Even This Price Is Likely to
Be Boosted as Result of
Shortage East.
A still areater advance has been
forced ia the price of cranberries along
rront street rrice is now neia at
a barrel.
The futher advance in eastern prices
and the Inability of shipping interests
there to fill the demand has forced the
trsde alL over the - country to follaw
with advanced quotations to their cus
tomers, - ', '
Best eastern cranberries cannot be
laid down in the local market in car
ts , under - $11. 2a a barrel. - None or
e auDDlies now being offered were
purchased direct-from the east because
the local trade was extremely bearish
and refused to purchase liberally when
berriaei i were' offered, them at less than
