IJ)r Wyman J I. Cohen.
Financial -ondttioni tjirougliout the
World ar eluding irjucji uncertainty
regarding the future pi-ice of cereals
and especially wheat at. .Pacific north
Vent point.
While It I generally believed that
most of the big exporting Interest!,
are really mote bearish -jn their ideas
than t Juatlffd by facts, still money
htm been so tight abroad that there
lias been a great curtailment In specu
lative activity In grain futures.
Onlv the fai t : ttia-t the world will
not' pifrxluce as big a crop of wheat
this Hon as compared with a year
ago will aid the growers from escap
Jng- from some of this bearing senti
merit..
Theie has not been, a seawon for
Tnsny years when there was so little
lncllnat.Vn among foreign Interests as
welt as Nome speculators to speculate
J;i grains is at this time. To some ex
tent the e perlence of the trade dur
ing the seT"i now closing was the
, big factor in causing the tiade to go
solrfewhat moiV slow in tts derations.
J'ew of the exVortlng Interests really
made any mo "Jey on their foreign
shipments last tfason and soma have
ended the year s"lth a deficit.
The- situation is" perhaps, worse in
regard to barley tian In wheat or
oats. The enormous crop of ralltor
tila now being gatheitd has been of
fered to lOurope at sVC-Ii low prices
'this season bv speculative interests
ttiat there Is likely to e only u few
M raps of the trade Iff-" for the Pa
cfflc northwest growtlt. At the mo
ment there is little llknelibood of any
grat activity In the movement of
I'nclflc coast barley to the cast; In
fart, some of the Icadt ig interests
liave come to the conclutioji that there
will be nftne at all.
Oats outlook Is slightly niorc hope
ful than barley, but It is toq early to
state with any degree of certainty
vrhat the crop Ih going to be atui the
nil of the price defends upo.n the
totsl yield of the country. -:
The great strength' hown in the
Rraln bag market can be jtttrlbuted di
rectly to the greater grain crops of
California than anyone would have
expected a few months ago. The call
for bags has been rather pt-rslstent
from the south becuune the trarje there
purchased far less than probaJale re
quirements. Trading in the flour market Is prac
tically suspended. Only a very nom
inal volume of business has been re
ported recently and there Is at present
no indication of an Improvement.

STEEL INTERESTS SEE SIGNS OF FAIR
IMPROVEMENTS IN CONDITIONSOFTRADE
. New York, June 6. The dawn of
prosperity for American Industries will
come In mid-summer or early fall, ac
cording to tbe consensus of opinion
expressed by many prominent leaders
in the Iron and steel Industries, who
attended the annual meeting of the
Iron and Steel Institute In this city
recently.
W. F. Thomas, president of the Briar
Hill Steel company, Youngstown, Ohio,
said:
"The condition may be summarized
by the statement that depression Is
based in the ratio of 25 per. cent on
real causes and 75 per cent on a false
ly based sentiment. The warehouses
of the railroads. Jobbers, manufactur
ers and retailers are down almost to
rockbottom In stocks. They cannot
continue to refrain from buying in ex
tensive quantities on all hands -within
the next few months. We are in the
swing: now and may shortly expect a.
remarkable period of expansion.
"It may be true that tariff changes
have seriously affected the iron and
steel Industry, that continuous agita
tion of business by anti-truBt actions
and legislation have also contributed
to the depression, but I say that with
the pendulum on the swing the ieaders
In all lines will soon recognize they
are on the wrong track. Fundamental
conditions, such as crops, monetary
situation and depleted stocks are trie
best contradictions to the pessimistic
views in the east.
"I have had a long conversation with
a colleague in the steel Industry in the
west. lie tells me that' he left his
home town with the feeling that things
were fairly good not quite as excell
ent as be might hope for, but still In
a fair state. As he came farther east
and met his 'associates in this com
munity, their pessimistic sentiment ac
cumulated so rapidly that he is now
feeling; more blue than the others. It
Is .ibsirrd that this is so because there
is no real foundation for the feeling.'
A. F. Houston, president of the tu
ken Iron & Steel company, Coatesville,
Pa., when asked for his'opHnlon on the
lrn.de outlook replied that mid-summer
will mark the beginning of a trade
fot.om in this country.
S.'ome complaint was made that the
recent tarirr changes have had a traa
effeftt on the iron and steel industry.
The competition with cheap labor pro
ducts of Europe has exerted a depress
ing influence on tne industry as a
whole. With the resumption of a live-

PRICES RESPONDING
Chicago Market Closes Fractional
ly Higher; Higher Liverpool Is
Good Thing for Domestic Trade
in the Cereal Line.
Chicago, June 6. The firmness In
ccrn and the higher Liverpool cables
gave wheat a strong tone at the start,
but there was free commission house
selling on the rallies, and the early
advance was wiped out. The cash
situation is firm so far as old wheat
is concerned, but the general advices
in rpararrt tn new croc are too bearish
to encourage much buying by the
public at the prenent time. With the
fxcention of Liverpool, foreign mar
kets showed an easier tone. Receipts
are light and the offerings of cash
wheat are moderate. With bullish old
crop developments and the bearish
new crop situation, the market is in
a two-sided positioo. The bear news
bas been pretty well discounted for
several weeks past.
Corn trade has been fairly active,
and prices have scored good gains.
Liverpool cabled that a cargo of La
Platta com had arrived at Rotterdam
in bad condition and that La Platta
offers were firm. From present Indi
cations the Argentina situation will
not be much of a bear factor for some
time, while the strong domestic sit
uation encourages belief in higher
prices.
The demand for oats was fair at the
start, bnt indications for more rain
cheeked the buying, although corn was
strong. Fair rains in some sections
were reported, but rain is badly needed
in other sections.
John Inglis reported from Harper,
Kansas:
"Wheat Is showing perfect filling
through southern Kansas, fields run
even and uniform, yields promise to
be large, weatner favorable lor ma
turlng, will commence cutting soft
wheat next week, general harvest
about fifteenth; all crops good here.

Walla Walla, Wash.. June 6. Golden
fields of waving grain now dot the
Walla Walla valley In many Dlacea.
and within the next few days the ifrst
chapter of the record harvest will have

Only the cool, cloudy weather of the
past week prevented a number of the
farmers in the lower part of the county

ago. and it is considered certain an
other week of warm, sunny weather

In the foothill district the fields
still are green, although heading out
nicely. Toward the west, where light
land farms are located, the wheat is
neaaea. ana in many instances the
grain has started to ripen. The straw
crop will not be unusuallv heavv. ac
cording to the farmers, but the yield
will be fully uo to the average, barring
hot winds, and the quality as good as
could be desired.
In some of the light-land fields the
grain heads are not as large as had

LIKELY
CROP LESS
TO PRODUCE
RECORD THIS SEASON
Prospects Ntk So Favorable and
This May Be Influence in Aid.
ing the Price; Early Varieties
Show a Heavy Slump.
By Hyman H. Cohen.
There will be no really heavy crop of
apples along the Pacific coast this sea
son, contrary to reports received sev
eral weeks ago. California is estimat
ed at from 60 to 76 per cent of an av
erage crop, and the former figures are
most general, u na croD in uregon is
estimated at practically 5 per Cent
more than a year ago. while Washing
ton and Idaho will likely show an in
crease of 10 per cent.
There has beenan unusually heavy
dropping of early apples at all points
in the Pacific northwest during the
last 10 days. While some of this drop
ping may be considered a good thing,
as It will thin the trees better than
humans can do the work; still tne out
look for a bumper production is much
less favorable than formerly.
Perhaps this is one or the very Desi
things that could have happened to the
ciop at this tme. Owing to the most
excellent prospects for apples along
the. coast, there has been a tendency
among the big eastern buyers, as well
as those from roreign countries, to
expect much lower prices for the com
ing season. It Is generally the rule
that big crop is overestimated, ana
the outlook Is for just that condition
Some of the big selling agencies
have been giving out advise to their
affiliations recently, ana an mis nas
been permeated with the talk: "Don't
expect a high price for your apples the
coming season."
This advice is cneap, out mere- is
much doubt at this time In the former
belief that values will go to the bow
wows. The crop in the United States
this season does not promise to be an
extremely heavy one, and' conditions
abroad so far as the probable crops are
concerned, are not such as to unauiy
alarm the growers on this side.
More and better markets are yearly
being captured by the Pacific north
west, and, even though the output was
a record one last season, there are no
indications in sight ror any serious
s'.nmn In values.
Present Indications are for a 75 per
cent drop of .pears In Oregon this sea
son, and this is expected to oe consia
am hi a n tri to thoi nrlce.
Prune crop conditions . are showing
practically no change, although the be-
lier now exists tnat recent reports 01
damage have been somewhat exagger
ated. The market Is reflecting this
condition. .
There is no doubt or tne snoriage or
the cherry product, and especially the
Rovnl Anne at Pacific northwest
points. Other varieties are snowing
an output more near normal.
The loeanberrv crop, as well as the
blackberry crop, will undoubtedly prove
one or the greatest ever snown in tms
section. This is especially true 01 10-r-nrm.
which not onlv have a greatly in
creased acreage, but the vines are full
of fruit.

"In times like these," he continued,
"we should consider not only the pro
priety, but evea the necessity and
pleasure, of being- fair, reasonable and
generous In our treatment of our em
ployes and the treatment of one an
other. "It isn't necessary to speak of gen
erosity to customers, for they are taking-
care of- themselves. But this 4s
the time to take care of each other. It
pays In dollars and cents to occupy
and pursue that course.
"There is no man or Institution so
capable, intellectually or otherwise, .to
be in a position to Ignore the rights of
others. I am dealing in generalities
without intending to refer to any In
dividual or company. We are all on
the same basis, and we must try to
help one another.
' "There are some favorable things to
be "considered in the present situation.
In the first place I would point to the
crops. They are something which
can't be taken away, even by politic
ians. The crops are growing and we
are going to have ah abundance. They
will have a big influence on business. I
believe we will see an improvement
soon. The country is as big as It ever
was. It Is growing and I think the
depression is only temporary. If we
husband our resources, have patience,
courage and persistency everything
will come out all rigjht.
"But I think I see more important
signs of the day. I believe there Is a
well defined sentiment to give bus!
ness. even hie business a fair chance.
The man In office or about to accept
candidacy for office who will have
the courage to stand up and declare
that it is time for the people to stand
up and realize that there is no great
happiness except with material growth
and prosperity, is the man who will
receive the support of the people, and
I believe we shall see more and more
of that kind of man In the near ru
Ltiire"

Preceding this, however, he struck a
note of optimism by expressing the
hope that 4he turn was not far off.

New York Stock Market Bullish
With Generally Higher Close;
Well Liquidated State of List
Shown During the Trading.
New' York. June 6. The well liqui
dated state of the stock market list
was demonstrated by the course of
f trices at the week end. Reports were
ndustriously circulated to the effect
that a decision In the eastern rate
cases would be handed down over Sun
day, and such advices produced more
or lees consternation among specula
tive sellers, with the result that an
aggressive covering movement was In
augurated and prices responded easily
In view of the limited amount of long i
stock pressing for sale around prevail
ing levels.
Conditions at Paris are In a rather
acute state, and affairs In London
somewhat the same; but with regard to
the latter it is thoueht that the at
mosphere has been somewhat clarified
by this morning's announcement of the
financial mortality of that institution
whose status figured so prominently
In the advices some weeks ago.
The French are being forced to con
tend with legislative proposals of a
drastic nature, and it Is anticipated
that the formation of a new ministry
will be attended by much difficulty.

For reasons apparent only to them
selves, although there was a good In
crease in the movement to market dur
ing the week, local buying Interests re
fused to follow the lead of the rest of
the country and the result was that for
the first time except In a very x
tended period the price of swine here
nas ruled lower than In any other
stockyard market In the entire country.
The belief exists In most quarters
that buyers can no longer delay ad
vancing their bids for swine t in the
local trade. While conditions through
out the country generally were such
during the last week that higher values
should have been paid at North Port
land, still prices show an actual de
cline, with closing ! value for tops

Cattle Conditions Steady.
Little change was shown in cattle
market conditions at North Portland
during the week. There was a rather
liberal increase in the marketing com
pared with the small movement to the
yards during the previous six days, but
this failed to have any adverse effect
upon prices available.
Light stuff was still the most
sought after article in the steer di
vision. Cows brought. more relatively
than steers and the same was true of
bulls, stags and heifers.
Some weakness developed for calves
with the more liberal offering of the
week,, and prices closed at a lower
point than during the previous six
days.

Mutton Trad Fairly steady.
While for lambs there was a further
fractional loss In the price at North
Portland during the week, general
trade conditions were considered
steady, with little change in values
from a week ago.
Movement of mutton to market aj
North Portland showed a very heavy
increase and while at times the buy
ing was not brisk, killers did not use
this as a weapon to depress quotations
generally.
Mutton market conditions at stock
yard points east of the Rockies were
somewhat more favorable, although
net price changes were comparatively
limited.

COUNTRY PLACES
Bay City Society Folk Begin
Their Annual Exodus to
Summer Homes,
MEMORIAL DAY QUIET
Xaj 30 Devoted to Memory of Soldiers
and Bailor of Other Bays
lowers Strewn, oa Bay.
By Marlon MacRae.
San Francisco, June 6. Thousands
of people went on week end outings to
mountain and shore last Saturday and
Sunday, and thousands of others gath
ered In Golden Gate park to witness tbe
perfectly splendid parade of blooded
horses which was a forerunner of Horse
18 day. Thus Memorial day In the city
was quiet and the day was observed
in tne right spirit. California roses, I
Poppies, geraniums, lilies werA strewn
with lavish hand on the graves of the
soldier dead, were scattered from craft
in the bay In honor of the brave ma
rines who have gone down In their
country's service, and banked about
the many monuments which stand
throughout the city in memory of our
heroes.
Mountain's Eruption Mystifies.
Of course Mt. Lassen is creating a
lot of excitement by its wholly unex
pected activity after 200 years of good
behavior, and a spirit of anxiety and
unrest is manifest throughout the
state. This unexpected eruption of
Lassen brings vividly to mind the
many times reports have gone the
rounds In Oregon that Mt Hood was
acting "peculiarly" for Hood Is on
the same volcanic plateau. Many par
ties of naturalists and mountaineers
are leaving here daily for Jhe scene
of the Lassen disturbance and scien
tists rrom an parts of the country are
headed towards California to study the
phenomenon. . ,
Social Activities Quiet.
There is a regular exodus of society
to summer homes and resorts, and one
wonders why. Surely San Francisco
has the most delightful summer cli
mate In the world unless it be Port
land yet It seems to be correct form
to go where it Is warmer for the sum
mer months. The Oregonians, who
come here In numbers during the win
ter, are showing a decided preference
for their own fine climate by staying
at home, and nowadays one only meets
those who are here on business. May
and June weddings have kept quite
a contingent In town over the allotted
time, but It must be confessed that
most of the proverbial June weddings
are celebrated In May in this state of
capricious seasons. Decidedly the
prettiest wedding of the spring season
was that of Miss Lurline Matson and
William Roth, which was a large
church affair of last week. The quaint
costuming of the brides' attendants
attracting universal attention. Not
since the days of our honored grand
mothers have society maids been brave
enough to appear publicly in the pan
tellettes of olden days, as they did
on this occasion. The daintily colored
gowns were made full of skirt and
showed fully four Inches Of the lace
ana tuue pantalettes beneath. An un-
sually pretty conceit was theuse of
crushed leghorn hats for flower bas
kets, filled with American Beauty
roses and old fashioned Canterbury
bells. Only In California could there
have been such a profusion of flowers
used In church and home decorations.
The weekly dances at the Cliff house.
Inaugurated by the Douglas Cranes,
will be continued throughout the sum
mer months, so that those who have
to remain m town, or run up from
their suburban homes, can have this
regular diversion of dancing. Golf and
polo are gradually assuming the lead
In popularity with the smart set, how- J

Suffragists to Stump State.
The; sister of a state senatorial can
didate and the wife of a United States
candidate have announced their Inten
tion of stumping the state politically
In the interests of their respective
relatives.
The club women of this state are
working earnestly In an endeavor to
have the Decker memorial fund of
$100,000, which has been raised .by
the National Federation of Women's
clubs in honor of Its late president,
Mrs. Sara Piatt Decker, Invested In
California. Our local clubs have al
ready forwarded a substantial con
tribution to this fund and there Is
every prospect of' securing the entire
Investment for California.

"Mr. Sunshine Is Pared.
We had a few cloudy days here this
week and some of the "regulars" at
the Palace hotel who are about as
lively as the Portland Ad club when it
comes to original stunts, had a minia
ture "Buttons" lustily page "Mr. Sun
shine." To everyone's surprise the
sun broke through the clouds and
flooded the Palm room while Buttons
was performing his rites, and the
eastern tourists present decided that
both California and Callfornlans were
bewitched. ,
One day this week the local United
States marshal decided to give the
fish of San Francisco bay the treat
of their lives, so he dumped 126 tons
of soup and pork and beans that had
been condemned under the Poor Food
law, near the sacared precincts of
Oolden Gate. He had a good deal to
say about what he was doing for the
fish, but man's inhumanity to fish has
come to light through the fact that
he did not open the cans, and as
everyone knows the California fish
have no teeth nor can openers.
Pslx Motorists Sn Bouts to Portland.
Mrs. C P. Thomas and Mrs. F. R.

Portland, making the trip entirely
alone. On the first 400 miles of their
long trip they bad no greater mishap
than a punctured tire, and as both

confident of reaching the Rose City

garding final details of construction on
the Olympia line, which will connnt

the city limits of Olympia, making a
tunnel 670 feet long. Twohy BrotnrH
have been awarded the contract for
building this line and ihfv nnwt

early next week.
One of the reatures of construction
of this Olympia line by the O.-W. R. &
N. Is the fact that it Is taking up a
project outlined 25 years ago and
abandoned at that time because of
what appeared to be insurmountable
obstacles. The Union Pacific In 189
projected a line to Seattle from Tort
land and actually built piers for a
bridge across the Columbia. The Hill
