Today's heavy run of cattle In addition
to the heavy supplies recently and the
big holdings in the feed lots of killers,
added materially to the weakness in the
cattle trade at North 1'ortland today.
The general trade is quoting lower
prices and In fact the bids are bo much
lower than formerly that quite a large
amount or the stuff was carried over
from yesterday because receivers were
unwilling to accept the figures quoted.
The run of rattle today at .North Port
land Inrluded 953 head compared with
437 yesterday. 333 Tuesday, 1214 Slbn
dav and 111 head last Thursday.
At t htrago there was a steady tone
Poultry prices show a sheer drop of
to lHc a pound in the local market.
Cleanups were made alonu Front

are almost too nominal to quote.
T here have been very heavy arrivals
of chickens along Front street recently
and with the big buyers holding off for
lower prices, receivers experienced con
siderable difficulty In getting from un
der. Many of the larger dealers were
unable to clean up previous to the time
of the slump.
Eg-grs at 30 Cents.
The egg market is firm at 30c a dozen
today for selected local ranch. While
receipts are still rather fair, leading
dealers say they are able to clean up at
the higher figure, although a few sell
ers continue to complain that the ma
ket Is not nearly so good as It seems.
Eastern eggs of bst quality are be

While the change in the swine trade
at North Portland was nominal today
owing to the very limited offerings, the
market was not nearly as firm as dur
ing recent days, owing to the lower
prices ruling recently In the Missouri
river territory.
The only load of hogs that came for
ward to the local market during the
past 24 hours was from Endicott Wash.,
John Branbert being the shipper.
At Chicago there was a steady tone

in addition to the absence of sup

New York, Sept. 21. The serious de
pression In Steel Corporation shares to
day was assigned to the poorer outlook
for business and the cutting of. prices
for steel products. According to Iron
Age. there is n possibility of lower
wages in steel mills, and tho matter Is
being seriously discussed. No improve
ment nas been noted In the industry.
lioin uttie and tag steel were weak
and depressed tod;iy, as a result of the
dumping overboard of huge blocks of
stocks by torelguers, who are said to
be affected by the higher bank rates.
The Bank of England advanced Us
minimum discouu. rate to 4 per cent,
and the Bank of France placed its In
terest charges at 3V4 per cent.
There" was a report current today
that the United States Steel corporation
was thinking of letting go of its hold
ings in the railroads, and this had an
adverse affect upcii its own securities.
Steel common dropped 5V and Steel pre
ferred 4 polnu during the day. The
decline in the latter was sensational,
and was one of the heaviest ever shown
In that security.
There was a mixed tone in the rest
of the market, bii' changes quite heavy
in some of the lenders.
Missouri Pacific was 1 points higher
at the closing, due to the further exam
ination of its annual report, which was
considered bearish yesterday.
Range of New York prices furnished
by Overbeck & Cooke Co.:
the answer to tha Injunction suit against
J 1 Secretary of State Olcdtt to prevent hia
J j placing the university referendum on
T 1 the election ballots reduced to stenog
J rapher'a notes. The answer was filed
J I today.
In the answer It la flatly denied that
there was ever any conspiracy on Park
iaon's part to secure names by fraudu
lent methods, but that on the contrary
there was a conspiracy against Parklson
to load him with fraudulent names for
the purpose of defeating the petitions.
But it is alleged that Parklson discov
ered thla and thiew out 4000 or more
names which he knew to be bad, and
that the 13,000 or more filed are all
good.
Parklson declares he knows tho cir
culators, with a very few possible ex
ceDtiona. ta b irood union men anil that
la willing to undertake to prove the
signatures filed to be genuine. In re
gard to the-lUO names declared Illegal
because they were acknowledged before
tho city recorder of Woodburn, it la al
leged in the answer that the city record
er was ex-offlcio justice of the peace
and the court is asked to allow him to
come into court and sign himself so
Instead of as "city recorder." ' 1
The defense is prepared to go into
the argument of the issue of whether
or not fraud on the part of a circulator
annuls the entire petition, loaded with
good arguments. Upon this point of
law will depend greatly the determtna-

Chicago, Sept. 21. The wheat market
Oats market dropped a full dollar a
ton In the local trade today and while
there was a nominal amount of busi
ness during the preceding 24 hours at
$29.6030.00 a ton, nothing over 828.00
41)28.50 la available today for the same
stock.
There are greater offerings of oats
from the Willamette valley and growers
themselves seem to be to blame more
for the present reaction than anything
else.
While dealers were getting their own
ideas higher and were Inclined to bid an
advance, growers started to offer at
any price that was available and it did
not take the market very long to dis
cover this.
Barley trade is autet but firm at pre
vious prices. Hay Is likewise firm,
especially for the grain varieties.
Wheat is quiet with prices unchanged.
Only a small amount of business is
coming from the Orient for flour and
millers say they are not disposed' to
rush sales. Almost all of them have
all the business in the export line they
can attend to for some months.

Crops Generally Helped.
Forest Ordve, Or., Sept. 21. The hop
urou in win necnon nas an neen gath
ered, and notwithstanding the heavy
rains of last week, no reports of dam
age to the crop have been repprted
Other crops, however, suffered greatly
from the rain, grain in the stack and
shock having sprouted badly. Farmers
sny that almost a total loss on grain
caught by the rain will result.
Prunes in some orchards win hn
loss of 25 per cent, considerable of the
fruit cracking open because of the rain.
Picking of prunes will begin the latter
part of this week In several orchards.
Other crops ahow no damage from the
rain.
Grapes In this section are showing up
in fine shape, and the crop will be
heavy, v
Potatoes were much benefited by the
rain, and, the yield will be above the
average. The past week has been bright
a-nd fair and Interrupted harvesting of
crops Is again in full awing.
A nutless and boltless clamp to hold
the ends of rails together, the Inven
tion of an Ohloan. seems to have been
i proved practical in teats.
