There continues to b reflected m slight
improvement in th dairy produce markets, al
though prices in general arc little changed.
Improvement in the butter situation is perhaps
tit. meat marked, so fsr as sentiment is con
cerned. From a feeling of extreme depression,
osrtng to the fact that prices here were the
highest in the United states, the trade within
a few days has indicated real steadiness. In
fact, there are points wherein the market is
really firm,
Whether thirls a bluff or -not.. California in
terests nave again appearea in me inarsei. ior
cubes of top- quality. Owing to the short
ened production of first class stock in this ter
ritory, there is no surplius to offer, and for
that reason prices asked are somewhat higher.
No acceptances are reported from the South.
There is still a sarcitis of off Quality batter,

Steadiness was generally indicated for eggs
ia the local trade for the day with strength
in some quarters. One leading operator ad
vanced ordinary candling to 26c a dozen,
a rise of lc. , Select unengaged.
CHEESE SITUATION UNCHANGED
Situation in the cheese market ia un
changed. There is strength for Tillamook
offerings due to slow delivery from factories,
but as Wisconsin can be landed here at 21c
there appears little prospects fox any im
mediate advance in the price.
rOCLTRT TKADE REMAINS QUIET
Ducks are hard to dispose of at -satisfactory
prices and the general poultry market is slow.
Soma of the leading firms hare been carrying
ducks for a week without finding suitable
buyers.
BERRY PRICES RULING FIRMER

neu with the exception of blacks which are gen
erally around $1.75 2.00. Loganberries are
showing a similar price with raspberries up to
$2.20 for the better class slu.'f. Blackberry
oiferings gaining.
BIG CHANGE IN RAISIN PRCES

CALL INCREASED
y Hymen M. OafMa
Interest tn the market for both spot and
futare canoed salmon ahewa Hberat gain fee
recent weeks with a conieqnent steadying of
spot prseea for old peck.
While con tinned improve mertt In the catch
of salmon in the Columbia is reported, the
output is still very short a? the normal for
this period. While August is nvually counted
nnon ta brine ud tha total pack of spring
Chinook in the Columbia, still this appears
to be an off year for general salmon packing.
Output to date is lust about half til normal
lor Uu period.
Columbia river salmon packers -in general
report having sold a boot all th fish they
care to at this time: in fact some cow tend
that th orahahl neck ia already oversold at
the formal opening prices named a abort
time ago.
Practically oedy normal stocks Ql old pack
pink and chums remain ia this territory
while demand for offerings is increasing. Not
only is there a good European demand for
the cheaper fish such as chums and pinks
but the domestic call is better. : New York
reports more call for reds and pinks with
nearby delivery very scarce, links ant re
ported scarcest in that market.
Red prices will likely be opened this month
by the Alaska Packers' association and early
forecasts are for a rather firm market.

X. T. COTTOX 18 INFLUENCED
BY WEAsvrXESS AT LIVERPOOL
New York. Aug. 2. The action of today's
cotton market waa a disappointment to people
who had bought cotton on the email go's na
scent Crop indications of yesterday. It had
been expected by yesterday' bnyr that th
Liverpool market would reflect an increased
demand from spinners bat instead Liverpool
was relatively easy aad the market her opened
at a decline of 82 points an order of 2 to
LIT points under scattering liquidation. The
Wis position to liquidate yesterday's purchases
waa doubtless Increased by a- somewhat las fav-
porable view of th labor situation and prospects
for slightly lower temperature in th Sonth
west which roe seated a possible change in tha
weather which has been dry and hot since tan
middle er July. At any rata, the market was
under conatderabl pressure, while thar was
not a great deal of demand and prices worked
off to 21. 9 for Lcember or about 32 to 37
points net lower. This represented a dechne
of approximately a cent a pound from the high
price touched on th advance of yesterday aft
ernoon aad offerings than became lass aesiv
with, th market showing a disposition to wait
for Texas weather prospects to develop more
clearly. - ,
Th cotton market opened lower today on
poor Liverpool cables and liquidation. Senti
ment waa leas bullish and the weather nsrws
from the Southwest continued unfavorable.
Liquidation increased in volume in the last hoar
and the market closed heavy, off 17 ttf 56
points net.

Foreign and domestic wheat trade condi
tions were better at th Wednesday opening,
although there waa little action noted in th
local territory. Liverpool and Buenos Aires
were higher for options, and abowed a mora
optimistic feeling generally, but their ad
vances for the day were for th most part an
indication that the decline was progressing
too far or too quickly.
Locally there ia little disposition to do much
business in wheat. Present wants of the en
porters are confined to very small volume of
white club, and seemingly ther is no special
hurry to make these purchases. Most of the
limited business in this line for the 24 hours
was around 1.101.11 per bushel tidewater
delivery baaia
Limited volume of flour business from the
Orient is reported, with a fair sprinkling of
the activity from Manila. Local flour trade
conditions are very quiet.

Wheat Market Is
Narrow; Erratic
Trading Follows
Chicago. Aug. 2. It was a narrow market
in wheat today. Price moved within a nar
row range. There was good baying early, which
absorbed the hedge, and thereafter prices ral
lied about Ho on local buying only to en
counter selling in sufficient voluro to cause
a setback again. News of u$icient impor
tance to affect the market waa missing. The
rail and coal strikes remain unsettled, but de
spite this fact primary receipts were 800.000
bushels mors than a year ago. Export demand
was quiet, only a little nearby wheat being
worked. Demand for deferred shipment waa
light. Cash premiums were unchanged. Min
neapolis reported bids for cash wheat aa much
aa 5c lower in some instances. Goodman es
timated the Canadian wheat crop at 320,
000,000 bushels, with the condition the best
in years.
Corn was sy in tone. There waa scattered
commission house selling, while buying power
waa not near aa great aa of late. Some of
the larger local shorts covered around the
low point and took their profits. Arrivals in
earn are still of good volume.
Oats were quiet and the market was af
fected by the action of corn. Cash house
old a little oats. Buying power waa limited.
Shipping demand for oata waa moderate.
Provisions were quiet. Lard waa firmer be
cause of ,the decrease in stocks. Sales of
810,000 pounds of loose lard were reported
at 40e under September and 200,000 regular
lard at September price in store.
Wheat closed e to c lower, due to local
liquidation. September closed at 31.05 0

New York. Aug. 2. The market for eotton
goods maintained the slight advances mad
yesterday when the government cotton crop
report became poblic But while th business
was in gnater volume ther was no naeb, of
buying orders. Fear of th affect on consumer
buying of any marked advance was a restrict
ing influence. Standard point cloth war in
fair demand, however, and some good business
was donain sheetings. Cotton duckwaa firm
and fine conn, oods were steady. Sateens,
drills and twills wer rather dull.
Improved trend In the market for finished
silk goods and the advance in production was
manifest in the raw silk market although manu
facturers were earnest seekers for bargain
prices.

sted offerings baa had a stabilising affect on
the wool market and Summer street price
