10 THE OREGON DAILY - JOURNAL, PORTLAND, MONDAY, s JUNE 21, 1915. BANKERS WANT MONEY AND FORCE WOOL GROWERS TO SELL SUPPLIES BETTER EGGS ARE IN GREATER DEMAND FRONT STREET NOW No. 1 Stock Is Advanced to 21 22c Dozen, With Greater Strength , Case Count Buyers Are Likely to Be Hurt. 13er Is growing strength la the local 'mar ket at this time for better quality eggs. For No. offering wholesalers are today asking 21622c dozen, the latter price being 'gen erally quoted where deliver lea are made In tbe dir. f 1 Situation i Improved generally since tbe "new grading rules of the Portland organisa tion were put into effect. "All along there has been, a call for better eggs, but owing to the (act that this city was being used as a dump ing ground for inferior stock while the best quality was sent elsewhere, tbe trade was unable to secure Its requirements except at touch heavier expense. With leading t. o. b. buyers freely offering 20c dozen for eggs subject to No. 1 candling -, . i .. t ik.. . ,.iitv win h. mailable (ban heretofore. It means, too, that tbe buyers of stock at case count will receive tbe "culls" rejected from shipments to mem. bers of tbe egg assorts tlou, therefore tbe form er will likely be forced to fall in with the others In buying on the basis of candled qual ity. While best qusltty eggs are showing a lib eral call, there are cleanupa. reported on No. 3 stock. These are of good quality, although of dirty color and Dot quite as fancy as No. 1. Bakers are the principal buyers of this grade. ORANGE PRICES JUMTING Orange price are' Jumping rapidly. In tbe outn an advance of about 63c a box is re ported in quick time. This has forced tbe local range to $3. CO for choice and $3.75 for - fancy offerings.

A-lal- TartlmA A Cm, k. s tTTT HIDE MAEKETS . ; SHOW A BETTER TONE LOCALLY Imnroeement la showing In the course nf the bide and leather market. - Prices are ' be ing held firmer here and altboogh Tallica are showing practically no change, the demand la far keener than for some time past. With tbe price of bides at tbe bigheot mark on record in the east there was op to this time some disposition among leather buyers to withhold their business In anticipa tion of an easier feeling. When it became apparent that the market would not go lower, tbe orders for leather began to come forward. A Boston mail advice say a regarding the improved sentiment: ' -Packer bides are today bringing 2t4c a ponnd more than at this time last year. With tbe best stock up around 25c, rhe strength of the market. In view of tbe comparative qnlet in leather and shoes, ban only one ex planation and tbat is a scarcity. The coun try for i long time has failed to produce more than half the hides necessary, for the nation's needs, and with tbe European supply, largely cut off while the war lasts. It con not be said that the signs point to any lp medlate recession in prices. In the final analysis It is the cost of bides that determines the price of leather, and it Is hard to see how the one can advance without eventually carrying up tbe other. "There is a steady If very fcradaal increase in business in shoes and leather and yitlment continues to grow more cheerful as to the future. : Shoe distributors, having been pretty conservative In their Initial orders for tliu present season, now find it necessary to call on tbe manufacturers for additional supplies. The question of styles, wbtctr recently was so perplexing to tbe entire trade, appears to be definitely settled and. as a result, there are few manufacturers who sre not better off In the matter of fall and winter orders than they were a short time ago. Hides are hOTerluc about tbe highest levels in history and con sequently there seems to be little likelihood of lower prices for either leather tr shoes in the near future. This might also be advanced as a cause for the Increase In orders for shoes for fall and winter. "The shoe and leather Industry is by no means out of the woods yet, because curtail ment In the outpnt of shoes did not come as quickly aa did tbe decline in the demand and current supnlies are rather large, while cases still come to light of manufacturers who overbought during tbe scare last Auguftt, brought on by tbe war, ana wno. oecauxe 01 the dullness in tbe domestic demand for shoes, have not yet used up all tbe stock they bought. Stocks of shoes, however, are large only In a relative sense, nor are many manu facturers ao wen stocked wun icauier mui they would not have to buy in the event of fresh orders for shoes. It would not take n.nch" sctivitv to make present stock of shoes and leather look insignificant and, business lu these lines csnnot long remain quiet with other Industries Improving." son and prices are being forced lower. While some extra select Mississippi stock has been sold as high as $1.50 a crate, average stock is selling at Sluxou-ao. aiercta oiieriugs at 75c fl for peach boxes. BRIEF NOTES OP THE TRADE Market for hothouse' cucumbers weaker and lower. Chicken trade rather slow at open 105.

While extrene prices are feeing paid In snme instances for wool, complaints are coming from various sections of tbe interior that bankers arc really forcing growers to let go of their aupplies at tbe price offered by buyers, be cause tbe?' went to close up accounts for the season as quickly a possible, i It Is stated that while uiie or two influen tial growers - are able to secure what their fleece is really worth, others are really com pelled by their financial backers to accept tu rn 2 to 4c a pound le fur similar quality. Gruwers sre showling far less dispoeltino to sell than a few dys e- With tbe more free offerings, buyers have 'been inclined to pay exceptional values in isolated lustsnces only, making up for this by purchasing the bulk of the stock UoloW tbU basis. Wool markets continue to show the etrong est toue of the season at eastern points. Coast sales of fine wools aire hard to ck because of the fact that there are: few mills here to accept such offerings. Dealera are therefore compelled to operate more extensively among extern mills. Porpign wool markets are showing but lit tle change for recent days. At mowt points ubroud wools ure actually selling higher than offerings from tbe same points are selling at in this country. This is taken to indicate tbat tbe market is artificial at home and that bearish interests are going the limit in their efforts to break the backbone of northwest producers. Race Is on For Fruit Tonnage' in Washington State Wenatchee. Wash., June 21. The race for frnit tonnage in the Wcnatchee-North dis trict Is in full heat.

The tonnage is estimated at 400 cars. The association is hallding a warehouse at Entiat. Nearlv all of Peshastin and a third of Cash mere are tied up with the Exchange. Monitor anu Wenatchee growers are still ou me ieu. They are inclined to wait as long, as possible for cash buvcrs. Malaga voted' Us 60,000 boxes tb Denny A Co., tf Chicago. This is a well known commission firm, but It nas con tracted with tbe Malaga unit to handle the pool on a strictly f. o. b. basis.

This would Indicate at the moment that mill er are generally taking little stock In the desires of ths speculative exporters to bring the wheat price to the low level. ; Then there is another real good reason why millers are not inclined to be hasty about putting flour down. Practically all their product now on hand cost them on the basis of better than $1 a bushel for wheat. Strenuous efforts are being made on tbe pert of bag interests to force artificial strength into the situation. With practically all the required bags en route to tbe coast," Import ers are trying to scare growers itito paying more money by alleging that shipments will be too. late for early harvest.

Wheat values opened e to lc lower, while corn started with a decline of to e. pats were down at the outset, as were pro Visions. Tbe early decline was checked midway in the trading on liberal buying of July and Sep tember wheat. At noon tbe advance was lost. The trading was largely domestic. The im porting countries are showing no great amount of interest in the new American wheat op tions. This has been the controlling influence in American wheat markets. Indications are for more settled weather over the corn belt. The decline this morn ing was due to this factor and the pressing of the 'Argentine offerings. Oats were dull. Pro visions were weak.

Tbe Hearst estate had 10 loads in from Latbrop, Cal., where they were fed en route from Mexico. While the local market for cattle has been somewhat depressed of late, the trend of the trade here has been even better than at com petitive centers, especially for ordinary qual ity offerings. Total run of cattle in the North Portland yards over Sunday was somewhat less than last week, the aggregate being 789 head com pared -with 1207 last Monday and 1176 bead for this same day a year ago.' It was only the smaller supply than ex pected that kept the market from showing losses for the day.

Hill )Murder( Is Being Sought Again, ;. GENERAL BUSINESS NEWS .- Acting upon suggestions advanced by George A. Thacher,'. criminologist, tha police are today searching for -a rnan who has long been suspected of implication ip the vVilllam Hilt family murder of June 8, 1911. as the possible perpetrator of that crime. ' ! - -The Hill family, father, mother, son and daughter, was murdered aa the members slept in thejr beds, their heads being crushed in with an ax. The slayer was never, apprehended, although many suspects have been ar rested .. , - j Thacher says he has secured infor mation leading him to cbnnect the man with the Hill crime. . t Thacher, accompanied bya Mr. Me Kenny, Detectives Price and Mallett and Patrolmen Miller and WeUbropk, spent the day yesterday in searching for him. j The suspect was arrested just four years ago today by Archie Leonard, then deputy , sheriff under Sheriff Stevens, as one of the, numerous 'sus pects in the Hill murder case. He was rowing on a raft in tbe lake just east of the Oaks when 'arrested. Sub sequently he was committed to the state Insane asylum, but was released a year later. Thacher attracted some attention! in March, when he declared that he had secured a confession from Alexander G. Siercks, an inmate of the state asylum, that he, instead of John Ar thur Pender, had committed the- Wehr mann murders at Scappoose. Siercks' confession was never substantiated, and in many ways it was proved false by the state officials. t Western Roads Have Few Defective Oars TJnion Pacific Has Beoord of 1.1 Pet Cent. O-W.

Among the nine railroads of the United States having the smallest per centage of defective cars for the year ending June, 1914, the Union Pacific showed the best record, according to a report of the Interstate Commerce commission covering car inspections. It8 percentage of defects was but 1.1. The O-W. R. & N. is among the nine, with a percentage of 1.8. The pre ponderance of the 'western roads in this record is noticeable. The Southern -Pacific, also among the nine, had a percentage of 2.4 and the Denver & Rio Grande's percentage The' lines west of the Mississippi river made the best showing of all the roads,, not one of those reported upon being in excess of 7 per cent.

J. Mullin, advertising manager of The. Journal, was interviewed by a member of the local staff on his three weeks' visit in San Francisco. Here Is what he said: i "The attendance at the exposition has average 40000 dally. Hotels and business houses are anticipating' a big attendance from now on. With th opening of the Italian building the ex position is at last complete. It offers a comprehensive fund of varlod instruc tion to fit the needs of anyone. "The majority of San Francisco mer chants feel thr.t the retail business is ahead of last year's although they do not know how much of the increase should be attributed to the fair. "Business in California, as compared to Oregon, is somewhat better, but basically Oregon is in better condition, due to the fact that in Oregon our peo 'ple conserve money moro thon do Cll fornians."
