Sheep acarket Improved.
There were no arrivals In the mutton
division of North Portland today and
this Is having -a good effect upon the
trade generally. As there are few lots
of real fancy aheep remaining In the lo
cal territory, at thia time, the trade
will be compelled to purchase practical
ly all of Its requirements elsewhere.
This naturally will help whatever stuff
is marketed here from the home section.

DRESSED VEAL IS VERY-
SCARCE ALONG STREET
AND PRICE IS BOOSTED
Market Reaches 13 H Cents a Pound
With Talk of 14 Cents Being paid
by One Buyer Who Was Squeezed;
Baby nogs Sell. Somewhat Better.
There was a sharp advance in ths
price of dressed veal along Front street
today. Supplies were nominal, while
trade needed Quite heavy stocks.
Sales were made generally at . 13Ho
for the' few that came and one report
was that a fraction above this was
squeezed out of one buyer. Hower,
the commission trade generally is quot
ing 18Hc as the top.
Far the greater per cent of the veal
that has entered the Front street trade
tyoently have been of heavy size and
rough stock at that. This therefore has
forced reflelvers to shade quotations and
sales were generally made around 11
12 Ho a pound, according to quality.
'lliere Is still quite liberal marketing
of dressed hogs along the street and
this is keeping prices at practically the
same range they have held at for about
Baby' hogs have been in quite fair sup
ply and the price -haa ranged from 16c
to 17c a pound, or much better tnan had
been expected.

Wheat prices were soft locally but
therei Was practically no business pass
ing at the lower range. Bids for club
Generally range from 78e to 79c per
ushei, based upon track delivery, but
growers are not willing to sell at all at
the lower figure and are not anxious at
the higher market
There was further weakness and de
pression in the wheat trade abroad to
day, due 4b the softness of the market
at Buenos Ayres. With more favorable
harvest weather and with ships already
arriving to take the' new crop, Europe is
awaiting actual loading before purchas
ing additional supplies elsewhere. Cargo
market here Is stationary but nominal.
Bids for oats are again changed, with
prices ruling from $30 to $31 a ton,
track, for No: 1 white, according to the
views of buyers. It Is now stated that
no more $30 oats are available here.
