i)i4f a. dozen to th country were un
willing to clean up supplies on Front
Mreet at the same figure. Indicating
that they vere not as k,een lor orjierm
as formerly indicated. f . .
However, there is one firm with lib
eral orders from British Columbia still
to be filled that Is making a little
uionev even at the extreme figure. 4t
Jias even been Intimated by this firm
that a still higher price may be forced
for a day or so. ' "
Eggs 'ara not moving any too freely
along Front street. The best price that
Puget sound interests will offer hers
is lS'yjc, and this means for delivery at
' he depots, which takes about 2c a case,
off the price. ... . . . .
neceipts or eggs along Front atreet
are quite fair, but not heavy. Demand
an be considered just about steady, and
there has been practically no change In
quotations during recent days. . ;
MORE CHICKENS ARE COMING
There were somewhat greater, offer
ings of chickens on the local trade dur
ing the dav, but - conditions remained
pond and there was little if any change
In values. . , ...
. FIRST CAR OF NEW ONIONS
' First carload of new onions of the
season was received from Texas today.
The stock was only In fair "condition,
and not nearly as arood as the old local
stock which Is being freely offered at
Tic a cental along the street.
CHEESE MOVEMENT IS GOOD
Triers continues an excellent move
ment in the cheese trade. While pres
ent business is confined almost exclu
sively to the local field, still all offer
ings are being absorbed at the prices

VEAL MARKET - IS GOOD
There is quite a good market along the

GOOD APPLES ARESCARCE
Scarcity Is shown In offerings of good

season opened and negotiations were
carried on very quietly for fear the sus
picions of growers would be aroused and
lhat prices would immediately fly up
ward. ...
"The first Prices nald for rood' rnmh.
Ing mohair averaged 34 'c a pound. As
the contracting broadened, values roue
until good material fetched 36c. which is
equivalent to 37 'A 38c a Dtiund laid
down here. If this hair had been pro
cured oy oeaiers ior resale tne quota
tion would have to be 40c a pound, the
highest figure named In years.
"Hie new cliD will be offered In Ore
gon next week and competition for the
material Is expected to be lively. Ore
gon mohair la not so highly, regarded
by spinners as Texas. - The quality of
the latter Is considered much superior
to me rormer ana we, juster or the
Texas hair "is declared to be higher and.
therefore, more desirable. 1
"The duty of 20 per cent that It la
proposed to levy on mohair under the
Underwood bill is Ktronelv oblected ta
by certain woolgrowers, who say that
such a duty is- inconsistent. Some mo
hair growers have contended that the
duty-is fair inasmuch as Anaora eoats
are raised here solely for the hair. Were
Turkey and Cane mohair to come in free
of duty, the domestic mohair industry
would be destroyed. On the other hand,
those who are opposed to the 20 ner cent
duty on mohair say that when the An
gora goat nas outlived nis usefulness,
he Is slaughtered and the flesh is sent
to market. Many a goat, it is stated,
when dressed, resembles lamb, and is
sold as such on some markets.
Those who are responsible for these
statements onoose the duty on mohair
on the ground that this material is Just
as much a by-product as wool. If wool
is to come in auty rree, 11 is argued,
mohair should be placed on the free list
also." ....-,'....

Further excitement In the export
wheat trade and the reehtrance of coun
try millers Into the markets at Interior
points, have brought forth higher prices
throughout the Pacific northwest. Bids
for club are now almost general at 87
87 He, but bidders claim they are unable
to secure supplies, as some of the In
terlor mills are buying as high as 88c
tidewater basis, .
The reentrance nf countrv millers into
th market has complicated the situa
tion. In the vlclnltv of Sookano never!
lots of club were taken during the last
24 hours on the basis of 88c tidewater.
There la tittle club to be had there at
tne present time.
Most of the holdings of club In the
Pacific northwest are- In the Walla
Walla and Pendleton sections. These
consist almost entirely of scattered
small lots. ,
There Is little call for bluestem wheat
at the fhoment, and prices for that va
riety are nominal. .

: Koine, April 23. Pope Pius' bronchial
and intestinal condition continues to im
prove, but he la slightly weaker .today.
The physicians at the Vatican have ar-
ranged to have his sister Anna sit by
hia bedside throughout the day, as the
pontiff obeys all her suggestions,- and
she appears to be the only one able
completely to soothe him.
It was admitted at the Vatican today
that It is not likely: that the pope ever
again will resume his. full duties. His
chief ambition at present Is to recover
his health sufficiently to celebrate th
Pentecostal mass In commemoration of
th Roman Emperor Constantlne. . He
slept well throughout, the night. -
