was almost at a standstill. Then the

nine wnen prices were lower.
"Xhe market for beef la In an excel-

The freeze in California will un
doubtedly have a good effect upon the
apple trade. Not only Is the local mar
hot expected to be benefited ,as a re
sult of the record cold weather In the
sunny south, but all American and for
eign markets are expected to show a
stiffening tone and a probable advance
In the price. ...
While It la not expected that the small
sized - fruit will show any serious
change in prices, the better offerings
will undoubtedly come ITi for a much
better call after It is definitely axrnr
talned what the damage is to the orange
crop in the south. , . '
. Oranges are really a direct competitor
to apples and therefore a smaller Out
put of the former Is expected to have a
stimulating effect upon the latter, The
fact that the orange crop was believed
to be a record breaker In California this
season has been one of the principal
factora In putting down the price of
apples all over the country and thereby
affecting the foreign trade, i ... 1

There was a firmer feeling- all through
the wheat market locally for th& day,
A further advance of a cen. a bushel
was quoted for club, which placed the
extreme price at Sic, although moat in
terests are still quoting 80c. '
The best demand is for bluestem. It
appears that;' tog-ether with a. smaller
planting of thia variety laet season,
there baa been an increaaed demand for
bluestem cutoffs in the export flour
trade. Thia therefore has brought out
sharp bidding among millers for the
hard grade variety. -No
c han are is shown In the flour situa
tlon. Price cutting is Still shown on
all sides in the natent trade, notwith
standing the fact that millers have been
lorced to pay a rnucn nigner Dasis ior
their wheat. It .looks aa if thev are
so keen for bUHinesa mat prices are a
second consideration.
Nq new developments are noted In
the coarse grain trade, both oata and
barley being unchanged, with strength
in tne lormer ana weaaness in tne lat
ter line. ; '. -.

Southern -fruits and produce of all
kinds promise to be very scarce- Jn th
local market within the Immediate fu
ture. ,
' Special sdvlceg received from Cali
fornia this morning state that no de
liveries of orapgea can be made at this
time. Some orders that had been con
firmed with local houses have now been
rejected, owing : to the reported heavy
damage by the storms of the last few
days. While it Is not believed that the
damage has been . nearly as great as
California early reports would Indicate
as all such, estimates ' are generally
much overdrawn still for-the Immedi
ate future it is expected that the trade
here will be very short of supplies.
Not only will oranges be scarce, but
lemons are already showing; an advance
as a result of the damage reports.
Head -lettuce and celery from Cali
fornia will likely be out of the. question
In the local market during- the coming
week. Already head lettuce and celery
values have advanced 60c in the Front
Street trade and even the price of sweet
potatoes, which re really not affected
by the freese because - the product Is
safely stored in cellars, haa moved up

Indicating that there is not likely to
be a high market for canned milk this
season, the Borden Condensed MUK
company made a further cut in the
price of its Honeer brand today. While
the nrlce remains nominally at 62.76,
the former figure, the company is now
giving a rebate of 26a a case, which
really means a not price of 13.50.,' " "
On the other hand,' the Pacific Coast
Condensed .Milk' company, owners of the
Carnation, brand, are quoting their
large size at $3.75. but are giving a
robate of 26c a case to the Portland
trade. The country trade is still charged
the net price. 1 . ,.'..-
In former seasons canned milk; prices
were generally advanced at this period
of the year. The huge output of milk
during the-f all, months has caused much
more -stock to go into storage than
usual and canners are therefore figur

City Council Makes Grant for
New Marquam Structure
on Morrison Street. '
Fei mlt for tha erection of a modern
fireproof skyscraper of 15 stories on
the Marquam block was granted by the
city council at todays ' session. The
building will be the home of the North
western Fidelity company and it Is not
unlikely that the central portion of tho
structure .will be. used as the location
Of a handsome theatre, The permit had
to be granted by the council on account
of the fact' that the city building; code
prohibits the' construction of buildings
of a greater height than 12 stories.
That this' limit is not high enough
for a metropolitan city such as Portland
promises . to he, was J the opinion ex
pressed by various councilman today and
loudly applauded by 60 representative
business men who crowded the paiiery
of the' council chamber," '" v. V
The council adopted a resolution
authorizing the appointment of five en
glneera and architects to. revise H the
building code and five men represent
lng the insurance Interest and Includ
ing the fire chief to act as an advisory
board to confer with the working con
mittee. It is entirely probable that the
code will be revised so as to permit of
the erection of buildings to a height of
at least 16 stories and probably 18 or 20.
A' resolution was adopted instructing
the- city auditor to write a letter to the
mayor and board of aldermen of the
city of Philadelphia urging that th
famous Liberty bell be sent to the San
Francisco fair In IB15. , -4 1
-An ordinance authorising the appoint
ment by the city auditor of 19C8 elec
tion clerks and judges to serve during
the ensuing year at municipal elections,
was passed. ; Many of these election of
ficials will be women. '. .
The resolution ordering a proposed
amendment providing for the erection of
the publlo auditorium on the east side
placed on the ballot, was defeated. -The
council passed an ordinance di
rectlng ' the city auditor to deliver to
M. M. Blocn pay warrants of election
clerks and judges of the recent city elec
tlon. These warrants, amounting to
about l&ooo. were assigned to Bioch.
An ordinance exempting carpet clean
ing establishments from the payment of
license fees was passed. A number of
special permits were issued to indigent
cripples to enable them to peddle vari
ous commodities on the streets without
the payment of license, fees. .
