BRIEF
While the present condition of the egg mar
ket U naturally firm at 35c a dosen becsue
of weather conditions, the trade In general la
afraid pf the future.
Receipts at this time are light, but the de
mand la only moderate. In spite of tbe fact
that tbe receipts are not besvy. there la no
snap at all to the buying. Kfforts of some
parties to force Tslues higher hare proven a
fizzle.
With the egg laying season well stsrted in
the Willamette Tslley and liberal receipts held
back only by reason of the alnnwt Impassable
condi t ion of the roads, trere Is every expecta
tion of besvy aupplles within s short time.
A new York mall advice Indicates that The
general American market, are being affected
by tbe wea'her. The adTlre says:
The egg market baa been subject to fe
radical fluctuations often experienced at this
season aa a result of wide vsrlstk-o In pre
vailing weather cundltloris. (in Monday and
Ti;eday oil Id weather here and covering a
large part of the more Important egg pr1in ing
territory In the xonthand southwest, with In
dications of gradual Increase of shipments from
those aectlons, led to Increased pressure to ell
and a sharp decline. Some gosl sized lots .if
firsts were sold on Tuesday ss low as ",0c.
tbo:gb holders generally refused to sell as lw
as that, and a moderate guantify of desirable
ati-k waa placed at 31c. and. In Instances st
21 Sc. with a few graded goods of finer qual
ity at About that time. hift, a
ery cokl ware that had been deTeloplng In tbe
Canadian northwest was spreading southward,
snd the decline in prices led to a gisxi deal
of withdrawal of atock under shippers limits,
as well as to aome lcal speculative demand for
good lines at HJ31c. Uu Tuesday afternoon
tne market gained a stronger tone and prK-es
bsre since recovered sharply under speculative
boJdin'g induced by tbe great extension of the
cold ware, which baa prored to be tue most
widespread and severe of the season, or, in
fact, for trxne years past. Zero and loner
temperatures hare extended from the Canadian
line as fsr south as Oklahoms. and very low
temperatures down into Texas, and tbe wave
has been grsdually moTlng eastward, sccoro
pan led In some sections by stormy nodltlous,
though the snowfall appears l" have ten lig'i'.
t'nder a considerable resxrii-tiMi of offerings
our market for firsts sdvsnced to 31 S'li-'Hc
on Wednesday, and to SJSioVj on Thursday.
(n Friday the trading was quiet, and tue lat
ter range covered the aelling value of most of
tbe supply of good to average prime fresh
gathered regular packings, though occasional
aiea of hluh firsts were made up to- :?4c.
There aie huyera who would pay more than
that at the moment tor well graded Fink of
the extra first -la.s, but very few such lo's
are it preseDt obtainable. Some fair to good
lots are offering at 31'f:i2i. and some ps-er
qualities, moetly tar s-sjthem. some of wnlch

Flour prices are tending higher. An ad
vance of 2tV a barrel Is now generally ex
pected by the trade, which would put patent
to $5.00 a barrel. A number of millers are
already talking about uch a price movement,
bu no geueral changes have as yet been
made.
With the price of wheat higher here and
tbe eastern flour practically entirely eliminat
ed from the Pacific coast trade because of the
extreme quotation of the product at $7.70
for top grades. Pacific northwest millers have
nothing to fear from outside competition.
Comparatively ieaklng. Hie pri e of flour
here la cheap. This section Is ty far the
lowest flour market In the world, therefore a
general advance la forecasted by the trade.
Wheat market la erratic. Sales of bluestem
were rep-wted In tbe Interior from gl.'iO to
$!.o3. the latter In a very limited way dur
ing the last 21 hours.
European marketa were again higher for both
apo and eargoe. Br-K.mhall reports the sale
of the cargo of tbe French bark Noeml. which
sailed fpiu here for Australia, arrivlu; there
DceemlKT 6. It waa found upon arrival
there that new crop Australian was so close
by thst better sale could l-e msde by offer
ing the cargo to Euroi. Brnomhall now re
port the sale to Europe it 2 fhlllinf. which
means $1.7y2J4 per bushel. The original char
ter rate to Australia was f shillings, but a
higher rate a paid when recuarterlng for
European delivery nas made. The cargo con
ai.ted of 13.ij quarters of club wheat and
wa.s shipped by Balfour, Guthrie A Co. of thla
city.
Hnonihall alao reports the sa of the
British ship Wlscombe Park, which sailed from
Ivj-tland December 17 with a cargu of 13.B 1
quarters of half earn tortyroiu ana ciuu

The charter rate was S5 shillings, which with
the other ex lueses of shipment adgrtguted
5'.i hoc a bushel. This makes the net irak
price here $1-2131 per bushel. The ship was
loaded by Max iL IP "User of lids city and
netted handsome profits.
The sale of the cargo of the British slesmer
Jedmore which loaded 21.00O quarters of forty
fold wheat from the Pacific i-oat at New

business available oo the basis of 9c tor me
dium to prime, but supplies of this quality are
being sold for higher prices by local growers,
while the essterners will not psy more, at

January Is usually the last of the active
months In tbe hop market under normal con
ditions, only crop cares causing sddltional lltv
eral business during later months. All of Uie
business reported recently has been for domes

It impossible to do .foreign business.

Quality of Wheat
Serious Detriment
To Chicago Prices
Chicago. Jan. in (I. N. S. i Wheat closed
m'rlK-' below Tuesday a finals,
The grain market weakened slightly over
night. The opening today, while renerally
lu the first sales, waa followed almost lin
n.edlately by a reaction wl.lch sent prices
oVwn fractionally in corn and oats and over
a rent In wheat.
The setback In wheat was credited partial
ly to a formal cmplalnt. according to re
ports by the London Corn Trade association to
tbe American ambassador In London as to
the quality of American wheat being ahlpped
tc Europe this year. Trouble la said to I
rrrreable to the Inspection of the Chicago
loard of trade, which la said to have passed
No. 2 hard wlr.ter wheat, a great deal of
grain at the beginning of the season, which
vaa not considered up to t,, standard. It
Is claimed that about 20.iVhj.(ni bushels sre
Involved. It Is figured this will result In 1
serious rettck for export business in Amerl
csu wheat. The corn market todav waa mt-e
or lesa a trading affair. Irofe8sionals class
It as a break buy. A continuation of the
export demaud for oits held prices steady
in the opening and tbe market aeemed firm.
May wheat opened at 132 and sold down to
iri.4, to extremely active today. July opened
at 1247t and sold down IV,.
May corn opened at 7fi and a vera red around
i July opened at . and declined frac
tionally. May oats opened at 5"S and dropped tn 52
or. the early trade. July opened at 504. and
htld firm.
Wheat closed more than a cent under the
oienlng. Trading was of record volume and
the market was considered In gnod shape to
ati-nd tbe pressure s It did. ( rn and oals
were only fractionally under the opening and
about half under the day s high. Following

Merchants Exchange.
'Io some extent the weakness in Chicago
was a factor but this was merely sympa
thetic. The canse of the Chicago decline was
the lack of good quality, while the Pacific
northwest has it best quality crop. This,
therefore, really should have aided tha local
