SON DAILY JOURNAL, IOHTLAUD, WEDNESDAY EVEHING, NOVEI.1BER 0, lOlii POTATO AND OM : IilKETS ARE TO tt i Trad Jn California Demoralized for Both rrodncts and Outlook for the Immediate Future U Not Good- Borne Market Slow.

Cheap onion depress. - . - Dressed meats steady. 2 The weakness In the potato trade all ever the Paclfio slope ia causing ship pers to wonder what has become of all the usual demand for tubers. For awhile some of the local and oth er "Willamette valley shippers were sending quite fair supplies to tiie Hay City and southern California markets, and their returns have almost in every Instance either been at a lower price than they paid or Just about equal, to Late digging is new general In' the tlver section of California and the crop there as well as In southern California and In the Pacific northwest Is the f reatest in the history of the industry. Regarding the general situation in the Ban Francisco market, a leading dealer there wrote to his representative In J'ortland under date of November II as follows: "Our potato and onion market is in a deplorable condition, the Japanese grow ers have been holding back digging po tatoes as their potatoes would not keep until after we had rain. They are .now digging freely and what they cannot sell ere consigning to our market. Re ceipts yesterday were 10,000 sacks and today 16,000 sacks, about three times as many potatoes as can be sold to ad vantage, as we nave no snipping outlet. The very finest selected river potatoes are selling for 6o pr 100 in 20 to 25 sack lots, and a really fine river po tato is selling for 45 to bOc per sack of 118 to 120 pounds." Another dealer writes from the same City under similar date: "In regard to Garnets, we do not think it advisable to buy too many ahead. The gardeners have a good share of their e-eed. Market here on rivers is very weak the last few days, und looks as though for the next month we are go ing to have extremely low prices. There has been too many Oregc-ns coming In here from different points and the mar ket is very slow. tVe think It, advisa ble to hold back shipments from Ore gon to this market for the next tnre weeks. The holidays coming on. It looks to us as though the market will be in very poor share." Regarding the onion situation in the south, a dealer from there writes as fol lows: " "The onion market ia in a worse con dition than potatoes. Many of our on ions got more or less vfet tn the late rain and these are being thrown upon th market at anything they will brine. We, ourselves, sold this morning a large bunch ol onions iti mo per saca, wquo several lots were given to anyone who would haul them away. We do not think the.se conditions will last long, us onions that will not keep will have to go to the dump and poBslbly the better lota will then advance in price. Condi tions look bad for at least 60 days." rOl'LTUY -MARKET IS WEAK While th receipts are not excessive there is only a nominal demand for chickens In the Front street trade today ami the riirkt is elow at 12c a pound for best offerings. COUNTRY BUTTER SLOW Market for country creamery butter -isslow iwrr- -Receivers are- not able to command highest prices for the rea son that th.re is a sufficient city creamery to fill all the call. Buyers will not take the lesser known outside goods at the same price. BANANA TRAiy DELAYED Owing to a late'start at New Orleans, .the banana train that U due here on Friday will not Hkoly arrive until the first of next week. The market still "has quite fair supplies, therefore no famine is shown. ' EGG TRADE IS STEADY Trade in the egg market is steady along Front street. bales are being made in a limited way at 45c for se lected fresh stock, but only a very small percentage of the limited arrivals grade No. 1. Most of the sales at 43 4j) 41c. .

Stock that would have brought $7.25 quite readily-at the start of ths week or last week, aold a- dims, lower at $7.16, with both local and Puget sound Interests buyers at this figure. Several loads went at ths hlgn mark. Run of cattle for ths day in tne local yards was rather light- with only 140 head reported. This compares with 171 a week ago, a single head a year ago and 699 head this earns day two years .. cattle situation generally mrougnoui ths 'country showed a weaker tone for the day. There were liberal runs every where and as a rule prices were lower, Chicago had 26,000 cattle On the mar ket this morning, causing much weak ness, which resulted in a loss of 10c to Ific in the price. , Kansas City cattle market continues to reflect nothing but weakness and today's prices were at a decline of 16c from yesterday. The Kaw river mar ket showed a run of 8000 head this morning.

The style seems to be caanglng because for cabbage there Is practically no de mand in the local market at this time. There Is less cabbage being sold in the local wholesale market today than ever before known, although the quality of offerings it th best. - For months there ha been scarcely any movement in the oabbage trade here and the bulk of the arrivals have been sent to the dumo owlnsr to the inabil ity of receivers to find buyers at any i price. Cabbaga has been so plentiful at times that wholesalers could not give It .ui.v r . While cabbage is todsy being quoted at c to 1 Mo a pound for crated stock in the Front street trade, there is not enough moving to really establish quo tations. Growers of cabbage are. losing muoh money and it is likely that many will abandon that branch of the industry after the present season is over.

This is the first time ever known that such action has been taken. It has been the usual rule to accept stained barley at a discount under tho established price, the . difference being decided bv aualltv. - This year, how ever, the Ran Francisco Interests refuse to accept Paclfio northwest stained bar ley on contract at any price. Just why this action has been taken aside from the belief that some of the leading interests In the Bay City may be ble to squeeze Pacific northwest sellers, is what the trade here Is won dering at. The local barley standard, which Is taken by the leading exchanges of Europe, has been ignored this season by the San Francisco exchange. The standard set by the Portland Chamber of Commerce this season Is from 1H to 3 nounds per bushel heavier than the San Francisco standard, there fore, calling for a really better grade. The slight stain that may be shown on of this section Is not really a detriment an it is much better feed than what the California standard calls for. The Portland chamber of commerce grain committee hus taken up the mat ter and the Seattle Merchants' Exchange has already entered protest against the alleged discrimination. The wheat market Is a very quiet ffnlr locally. The small amount of business which recently developed has suddenly ceased because of the failure of the local tfaoe to ooiain sausiaciory rirlcnn far carsoff; No wheat cargoes have been "sold in the Pacific northwest for several weeks, therefore, the trade , is ai ." i !....
