' The ' Portland wholesale trade has at last
discovered-the exact reason why It Is' able to
tecare only a nominal amount of prodnce busi
ness In British Colombia,
According t the represents five of a pack
ink': concern, the reason Is no other than
diacriminatloa against the Oregon product
by steamship companies that ply between
Seattle and BriUh Colambia points.
It Is stated on authority of this Interest
ttat be discovered that ahipments of egga
and other produce from Portland were oft
times held np for a period of five days at
Seattle, while the Paget sound stock was
sent forward immediately.
Soch Infrequent and delayed deliveries nat
urally caused bad feeling between the Port
land and Brftlsh Columbia trade, and par
chases were made here only when the trade
lu the north was unable to secure supplies
eh ew here.
The matter will be taken up with the local
Chamber of Cora meres la an effort to remedy
tbe trouble, according to local wholesalers.
Loes'Vf about a cent in tbe Chicago market
caused a weaker feeling for wheat ou tbe

Chicago Wheat Of f
rCent for Options
During Day's Trade
Chicago, Feb. 5. (.. X. s. Wheat lost
about le In price daring the day's trading.
The close was about 94 up from the low. snd
fairly firm. Corn and oats broke under pre-:
sure of closing oat sales and fell off more
thaw 1c. y
Trading Id wheat was ngnt st the opening,
with selling of a scattered nature. Cables
were firm, and this fset held, the market to a
good -plane until: the usual Saturday selling
began to bear price down. Professionals seem
to consider tbe present market a pare trading
affair. -
Cora and oats were held to a fairly steady
position by the pit element in the first hour.
Later," however, irregularity ruled. Weather
conditions favor a higher corn market, and It
is the general opinion that oats will set in
sympathy.
Provisions opened with light offerings and
a fair demand. , .
May wheat opened at 134J4. and ' July at
1264.

pressed at conflicting state meaU froaa Berlin
aad Washmgtoa regarding the latest German
attitude toward ABerteav was reflected 4a the

the sharp -recovery after a half boor of weak
ess expressed the other, erbile the uncertain
movement afterward suggestsd tbe Inability
of the market to discover what the position
actually was. . - , -1 . . - - ;
The street, however, remembered that there
ta a band an t precedent for Berlin to aanousee

the report.'; We Investigated the situa

"Of course, this Is proving a severe
winter, and there. will undoubtedly be
losaea. aa a result of th storm. It la
too early to determine their possible
extent. It would, therefore.' be advis
able If the reports war verified before
being sent out, and a little delay to
making up tbe reports- would be a good
thing for the people of other sections

agers of th United States ia being se
riously discussed. It is proposed to
get tbe organisation in working order
to handle the situation that will grow
out of the demands of tbe four broth
erhood of railway employes. ' At pres
ent there Is no arrangement of the
railway with each, other, t by which
they can handle a national question as
a whole. Only district organisation of
railway managers, for the separate
geographical section of the country.
are, available for the purpose, at the
present time. The functions of. tne
district organisations are limited to
the districts which they represent,--As
the questions at issue between the rail
road leraploye and th' railroad con
cern ail the roads of the country, there
Is neted. it 1 said, of an organisation
of much broader power. and scope.
The principal issue advanced by th
railroad employe Is an eight-hour day
for all the organized employe. Some
wage demand are being made that are
important but secondary to the length
of the day. The railroad employe are
now taking -a referendum vote , aa - to
whether or not they efaould strike is
order to enforce their demands or sub
mit the entire subject to arbitration.
