The treat downfall of prices for
fruit in practically every large market
In the country has at last affected the
trade here. The market today Is burd
ned with supplies of all varieties and
prices are lower. A larger per cent
'of the fruit is being dumped for the
want of purchasers than ever before.
, The last line to be affected by the
general weakness of the fruit trade was
cantaloupes. Sales of these are being
made from T6o to 11.25 a crate, accord
Ing to quality, but transactions at the
msner price are nara to close.
Peaches are still in large supply but
from the looks of the arrivals the run
will soon show a decrease. Bales are
being made In this line today from
60c to 76o with an occasional' sale of
something real select at a fractional
premium over this. However, the gen
eral average of good stuff does not
bring above 70o In the Front street
market today.
Pear market Is steadily showinr
loss and sales are now being made from
76o to $1.25 a . box with most of the
business around $1. The quality of
present arrivals in the pear market is
very good. The offerings in this direc
tion are stimulated by the extreme
weakness and dullness in the east and
in me norinern as wen as southern
; markets.
Even the grape market has suffered
from the overabundance of other fruits.
Ordinary stock is soiling around ?6o to
11 a crate along the street today with
muscats around 11.25 for fancy stock
and tokays from $1.40 to $1.60.
8o few apples are coming forward
at this time that it would be difficult
to say what the exact market is. The
demand at the moment is just about as
ii mi lea as oiienngs.
NO DAMAGE ANTICIPATED
Independence. Or.. Sent '6. Hodstow
era do not anticipate damage to the crop
as a result of the rain Saturday, Sunday
or Monday, unless the damp conditions
should continue for some time. Hun
dreds Of pickers who arrived on the ex
curslon trains Saturday are unable to
find shelter, and were compelled to sleep
out during the rain last night, many of
them have returned to their homes be
cause of this fart. Picking did not
commence Monday as expected on ac
count oi rain.
FORECAST FOR SHIPPERS
feather bureau sends out the follow
ing notice to shippers:
Protect shipments as far south as Se
attle against minimum temperatures of
about 48 degrees; northeast to Spokane,
60 degrees; southeast to Boise, 38 de
grees; soutn to fclsKlyou, 85 degrees,
Minimum temperatures at Portland to
night about 62 degrees,
POOR PACK OF PEACHES
Quite a number of fruit shippers of
the upper Columbia are wrapping their
pe&cnes in tissue paper, ana mucn dis
satisfaction has i osulted. Commission
handlers have found that while the tls
sue paper is softer than the usual fruit
paper, it aoes not noia trie fruit up as
ill, ana therefore the peaches arrive
we
in a bad condition,
lower prices.
This results In
CELERY MARKET STEADY
With the offerings Just about equal
to the demand, th" celery market Is In
f ood shape along Front street. 8ales of
ancy'quallty are being made from 85 to
90c per dozen. Most of the fancy stock
Is now coming from Olympla.
GOOD CAULIFLOWER SCARCE
While there are fair supplies of poor
quality, good cauliflower Is rather
scarce in the Front street trade. Best
offerings today are quoted at $1 per
dozen, while most of the receipts range
around sue.
VARIOUS HUCKLEBERRY PRICES
Various prices are being named on
huckleberries by the local trade, but It
is noticeable that most of the sales are
being made at the lower price. Quota
tlons today are from 8 to 10c a pound.
EGGS AND POULTRY FIRM
Both the egg and poultry markets are
showing strengtn today. Prices are ris
ing safely maintained In both linen, with
the latter inclined to make a further
advance. Receipts are much smaller
than ror tne same period a week ago.

Special advices received ;by The Jour
nal would' Indicate that th-e late potato
crop of western ( . Oregon-- has ; received
considerable help from the recent rain
fall. . '
Prom- practically every growing dis
trict in the Willamette valley, the ad
vices are much more 'encouraging for
a big crop. Within a few days the
vines have shown renewed life and the
moisture already received has been suf
ficient to tide the crop over until ma
turity. Early potatoes can now be dug with
safety and as soon as the showers
cease, digging Is expected to become
general. As a rule, dealers did not care
to load up with tubers ufitll after the
first rainfall, because, they say, the)
stock would not ' show good keeping
quality.
What .are believed to be the last cars
of Oregon potatoes to go to, Alaska
this season, are now being prepared for
shipment to. the north. Owing to the
deferred seaaon. Alaakan buyers Were
-compelled to nurchaae practically all
tneir wants at California points this
season; only a limited amount of the
business being filled by Oregon or
Washington growers.
The season for potato shipments has
just about opened. Dealers are today
offering $1 per cental for top shipping
stuff, but say this is the extreme limit
for shipments to California points at
this time.

RAIN
AND
WIND
HURTS HOP CROP
North Yakima, Wash., Sept. 5. Pa;
age running into thousands of dollars
was caused here last night by rain and
wind, which added so much weight to
the hop vines that the poles and trellises
fell. Many acres of lions are on the
ground In the wet and mud. and will be
ruinea. tteven tnonsanu pickers are Idle
waiting ror me ram to cease.
HEAVY HOP VINES FALL
Salem, Or., Sent. 5. The only seri
ous damage to hops reported today Is
the falling of heavy, vines. Fifty acres
In the Krebs yards at Independence
blow down last night. With good
equipment at hand for raising the fall
en vines, however, tneso will be saved.
Half a dozen prominent hopgrowers
and dealers tortay have declared no
damage is being done to hops by the
rain, as they are yet green and free
from lice. It la asserted two or three
days more of rain can be endured with
out damage.

There was again a heavy offering of
sheep and lambs In the North Portland

not quite so good. In other lines the
strength was pronounced, both cattle
and hogs showing a new high record
for the present movement

South Omaha hegs were weak, with
prices 10c lower. Tops sold there this
morning at $7.20, which means $8.30 to

As exclusively told by The Journal
yesterday, advanced prices are begin

were only limited offerings today at
North Portland, totals being 69 cattle
and 2 calves compared with 473 cattle
and 82 calves yesterday, and 28 cattle
and 11 calves last Tuesday.
The lot of Montana stuff that ar
rived for yesterday's market was not
sold in time to report In Monday's
Journal, because the weights were not
received In time. One lot of steers con
taining 47 head and averaging 1205
pounds went at $5.80.
The market for calves remains firm
and several sales were made during the
past 24 hours at $7.60, the previous ex
treme mark.
At Chicago there was a steady tone
in the cattle trade today with no
change In prices.
South Omaha cattle prices were steady
with top steers at $7.90 and best cows
and heifers up to $6.75. Therefore even
on the present basis the North Portland
cattle market has still some room to
go before meeting outside conditions.

It is now practically assured that the
opening price of 1911 pack of Columbia
river sllverside salmon will reach at
least $1.50 per dozen, and the likelihood
that a nickel above this will be asked.
Two of the most prominent . packers
on the river have decided to set the
price at $1.50 or better. The Pillar
Rock Packing company and the Union
Fishermen's Cooperative Packing com
pany are the ones who are Bunding out
the higher prlcea. Several other pack
era have either decided upon $1.60 or
$1.66 for the opening price for silver
side tails. The price of pound flats will
range from $1.65 to $1.70, and half flats
from $1.06 to $1.10.
Leading packer- say they are In a
position to secure the prices asked be
cause many orders are now coming for
ward, and inquiries regarding the prob
able output and price are Increasing.
As a usual rule the price of Columbia
river sllversides is, placed at about the
same nrlca aa Puset sound and' Alaska
pinks, but this season, on account of the
excellent uuiiuiiiuu ui miv hwuu,
values will be higher.
With the opening of the fall-winter
season only a few days away, Columbia
river packers are getting their crews to
gether and the plants are now in con
dition to etart on' a moment's notice.
