Previous to the conference a large
number of operators congregated in
the cor.-idors of the Monongahela
house. There was much dissatisfac
tion among them. Many were opposed
to breaking the strike by importing
men, and quite a large number urged
the acceptance of the miners' terms.
President Hatch ford in an interview
said be wanted it distinctly understood
he had never been asked by the opera
tors to confer with them.
"The statement," said he, "that I
had refused a conference is not correct.-
I am here tow at the requeet of
Dolan. Wa will only agree to tbe
operators' proposition if they will pay
69 cents. That is the lowest rate the
miners will accept. It mus be t9 cents
or the strike will be continued until

WHEAT IS GOING UP
Ninety Cents Paid in Port
land Last Saturday.
IS A RECORD BREAKER
This Is the Highest Price Paid tor
Wheat in Portland for
Six Years.
Would Be Four Cents Higher Were It not
for the Advance Demanded by
Oncers or Vessels for
Charters.
Portland, Or.. Auar. 22. The sky-
rooke.y flight of wheat, which, the
diffarentjjditions. being oonsidered,
is without a parallel in commercial
history, continued to the close of busi
ness in the East yesterday, and even
after tbe regular business of the ex
changes was over the bulls on the curb
were still rampant. The closing prise
of September wheat in Chicago Tues
day was 83 cents, and yesterday it
closed at an even dollar, showing
phenomenal advance of 161 cents in
four days. This remarkable upward
movement has been watched with a
great deal of Interest In Oregon and
Washington,, and these two states
have far and away the largest crop of
wheat that they have ever produced,
and an advance of 1 cent per bushel
means an Increase In the value of the
wheat held in the two states of $250,-
000.
The Portland market has kept apace
with the advance in the East as far as
possible, but a rapid advance in
ft eights has absorbed fully 4 cents per
bushel of the rise. In comparison with
former years, there has been a smaller
proportion of the wheat crop sold In
August than usual; but the yield Is so
much greater than the actual quantity
that .has changed hands to date Is
much larger than in previous years.
Receipts for the past week in Portland
have averaged a little over 50 cars per
day. Thus far the mills have taken up
the bulk of the receipts, the ware
houses being comparatively empty as
yet.
While it is the general opinion that
the recent advance has been too rapid
to. bo maintained in full, few, if any,
predict a low orlae for the cereal.
There may be some seesawing of the
market, but the statistical position of
wheat throughout the world is so
strong that it will be difficult to break
prices much until another harvest
approaches n portions of the world
that are now on the blacklist as far as
wheat-producing is concerned. Tt is
an unusual occurrence for charters to
advance at the- same time that wheat
does,' but at present they are rapidly
going toward a higher level than has
been the rule for a Jong time. A few
oharters were made early in the week
at 30 shillings for large vessels and 32
shillings 6 pence for small vessels.
Yesterday a top figure of the first of
the weak was offered, and refused, as
also was 31 shillings 0 pence for a large
carrier, owners demanding 35 shillings.
Thursday charters were made in tbe
bay "city at 26 shillings 3 pence, with
owners asking 2 shillings more. The
latest charter made - on the Sound was
the British ship Troop, at 30 shillings.
In spite of these stiff rates, wheat in
Portland yesterday reached the high
est figure that has been quoted for six
years, 90 cents being paid for Valley
and bluestem, while Walla Walla sold
for 87 cents. -
The aura-el erratic
Chicago, Aug. 23. The curb quota
tion for September wheat today was
$1.02, an advance of three cents over
Saturday's close. At the same time
33 was bid for corn, two ' cents over
Saturday's close. Liverpol's opening
wheat advance this morning was equal
to oi cents per bushol.
The highest price touched In the
Initial trading was 69i cents for
September, the exact quotation at
whioh the market closed Saturday.
Simultaneous Bales at tbe opening
were all the way down a cent lower to
98i cents for September, and ' a few
minutes later sales were being recorded
at 97 and even 96 r cents. Enormous
quantities of wheat were for sale from
every direction. It was hard to sell,
buyers being relatively very scarce.
Tbe lowest point reached was 95 cents
for September, a plunge of li cents
from the high point on the curb. Corn
sympathised with the slump in wheat,
and the first regular trading was at 33,
and all the way down to 32 for Septem
ber, as compared with 33 oo the curb.
After the opening rush to sell, there
was some recovery and at 10 A. M. Sep
tember wheat was back to - 93 cents,
and gradually worked up to 99 cents,
but at 11 o'clock declined again to 97
cents.
New York, Aug 23. Wheat had an
other sensational opening today, but
less one-sided than of late. The bulls
were startled to find heavy still ne or
ders from foreign and other sources,
which broke prices during the first
half hour about 4 cents a bushel from
the highest curb price of Saturday.
December opened at 104, broke to 101 f
under vigorous selling pressure, and
then rebounded violently to 104, later
weakening to 103.

Tbe crop- weather bulletin for the
week ending August 23, says there
will be more wheat and oats harvested
in Eastern Oregon this year than ever
before. This is not news to farmers
east of the mountains but it may be of
interest to Webfooters who imagine
they have a corner on wheat producing
in Oregon.
Farmers are unable to get what
hands they require to harvest their
crop and in many places are running
with short crews on headers and
threshers. The customary wages are
f 1.50 a day, and quite a number of
laborers can secure work at these
wages by applying to farmers through
out the country.

Turner Oliver, grand chancellor of
tbe K. of P. Lodge of Oregon, arrived
home Sunday morning after being; ab -
sent since the 20th of Juno. A large
part of the time was expended In visit-
ng tbe K. of P. lodges throughout the
state. During the past two weeks Mr.
Oliver was in California, bis principal .
objeot being to investigate tbe beet
sugar industry. He visited the princi ¬
pal factories in California, and was
shown every courtesy and gathered up
much valuable Information on tbesub-
ect of sugar manufacture. He found
that the factory , people are satisfied
with their Investment and there is an
evldenceof contentmentand prosperity
on the part of those -who produce the
beets, Tbe value of land in tho
iclnity of the factories Is from 9150 '
and upwards per acre and the uniform,
verdict among the farmers Is that beet '
culture is the most profitable crop that
can be produced. Even with a stoady
market for fruits and In localities well
adapted to wheat and a trifling expense
for putting the same into market, the
farmers largely prefer beet culture as
being tbe most profitable and certain
in the way of revenue. Mr. Oliver re
turns fully convinced that a beet supar
faotory would be a success in this valley
and Is, consequently, more deeply in
terested than ever before in seeing tbe
home project carried to completion.
