e
,F. TV. Hennlngsen has sent out the
word that Oregon eggs art to ba quoted
at a higher price. At first glance this
would Indicate that tho market would
jusuiy such a movement, mere is
way a reason for Bitch sentiment. Some
times it is due to a scarcity or tne home
prorluet ahd o tiler times to manipula
tion. Just at present the Inttr is the cause.
Tliuro in a good supply of local eggs
at the moment nnd dealers are experi
encing soma difficulty in netting Myers
for o,ulck movement. Case count sales
are being made alone the street at 23c
to 23 Ho a dozen, while the best price
that buyers are willing to pay shippers
Is 22c.
Onndled eggs are selling generally
at HGc a dosen wltli some willing to un
load nt 14 H: nnd others asking as high
as 2(io In n vory limited way. Kven
.tlii latter price Is considered too low
bv Mr. llcrinlnHen. who. by the way, Is
almost an exclusive dealer In eastern
egs-e.
If 'lOcnl egg values are boosted higher
It will allow the Importer of the eastern
stock to get more money for their goods.
Al the present time there Is a smaller
margin between the local market and
the earn than for many years. This
belnn tho ease, the importers of the
Utter ere practically out of business
unless they can force a higher price- for
the home product that would eventually
cut out their sale and allow the eastern
stock to be sold t a fractionally lower
value.
Much of the eastern stock that has
arrived recently has not been of very
good quality and this had hurt their sale.
To some extent local egs are not "as
f;ood an tin1)' might he, because country
nterests hold them too long.
PEACH MARKET IS FIRM
There Is no change In the peach mar
ket situation, sales of Crawford and
Elhertas ranging as high as 75c a box.
Oregon stocks are selling from 0c to
70e for most offerings but tops are
bringing the market's extreme.
PRUNES AND PLUMS LOW
Owing; to the prers of other fruits
Upon tho market, prunes ami plums are
selling lower In the Front street trade.
Pest offerings go at 60c a crate of
four baskets, but some off grade stuff
sold down to 20c.
TOMATO MARKET EASIER
Market for tomatoes Is easier. Re
ceipts arc slightly heavier and best
offerings jro at 50c for box, and it Ik
hard to Met flits .price. Quality Is en
erally good from tho homo territory.
CANTALOUPES HOLD AT $1.35
While offerings of cantaloupes are
rather liberal, the movement outward
Is pood and sales are generally around
per crate for good quality.
Watermelons are steady at previous

ays that the news of growers there are
tlffgr owing to the activity of buyers.
The prcnent hop market is entirely a
nominal affair. No business is passing
locally. While tho trade believes that
prices are higher, no actual tranaactUi
have been closed to Justify this (.na tion.

All attempts of packing interests to
depress the price of cheese here as well
as in the east have failed. The eastern
market remains unchanged at 15 a
pound, in carlots while Tillamook stands
at 16c f. o. b. that olt", The local mar
ket remains at 17 o for flls and there
Is no indication of any serious change
within the immediate future.
According to a messeage from Tilla
mook Interests this morning sellers
there were experiencing no difllclty in
getting the price for their entire output.
California ts still a buyer. It costs 17c
to land Tillamook cheese in the Cali
fornia market while the eastern stock
cost 17Hc. While the differential Is
small it is believed to be great enough
for the trade here to retain Its hold. .
Even at the same price of landing
eastern stock here as It would cost to
bring in the Tillamook make, tho
local market would still be favorable
to the home product as buyers will not
pay as much here for tho eastern make
as they will for the home output.

SORSST S. SMITH, City Passenger Agent, C9 Plfta Areane, Portland, Of.
Court; Decides Against Fight
Films In Test Case; May ::
t&aL
In spite Iff the fact that Judge Mor
row, as presiding judge of the circuit
court, held this morning that the mov
ing pictures of the" Johnson-Flynri prise
fight at Las Vegas, N. M., July 4, could
not be shown at the Bijou theatre, the
pictures are being exhibited there to
day. -
O. F. Woody, who Is managing the
films in Portland, submitted to arrest
yesterday in order to test the matter
peaceably in the local courts.
When the case came up this morning
Judge Morrow held that Inasmuch as
he considers prizefighting demoralising
and degrading, the pictures should not
be shown in Portland. The unofficial
board of censorship comprised of Mrs.
Elmer B. Colwell, representing the As-
sociatca cnarmes; Mrs. A. c. McNewij,
representing the Woman's club; Mr:
Maurice Goodman, representing the
Council of Jewish Women, and Mrs. M.
R. Trumbull, representing the Child
Labor commission, was present at the
hearing and opposed the exhibition of
tho pictures.
Attornejr Alex Bernstein, who ap
peared for Woody, said the Johnson
Flynn pictures are more In the nature
of a "pink tea" than a priie fight.
A. law passed by congress and ap
proved by President Taft July 31 pro
hibits the depositing or sending of any
pictures, films or other pictorial repre
sentations of any prize fight or encoun
ter of cuallists from one state, territory
or the District 6t Columhla to any other
state, territory or the District of Co
lumbia In the malls, express companies
or other common carriers. It also pro-
hlblts the receipt or carrying of any
such contraband articles mailed, deliv
ered or carried In Interstate commerce.
Representatives of the ministerial as
sociations of the city are to call upon
the t'nlted States district attorney this
afternoon and It Is expected that com
plaints will be drawn up against the
proprietor of the Bijou and other thea
tres which have advertised pictures of
this description for exhibition. The pen
nlty for violation of this act is a fine
fvf not more than $1000, imprisonment
of not more than a year or both at tho
discretion of the court.

No full green specimens or a red va
riety will be permitted. No else smaller
than 185. Iower grades of apples will
be disposed of for cooking or cider
apples.
The Hood River apple crop is now
estimated at 875,000 boxes, which Is
100 per cent Increase over any previous
crop.
Portland Man Fleeced.
