, ; WHEAT AND FREIGHTS.
The rormer Is Weak, the Latter Stiff and
' Advancing.
The Oregonian remarks there is not
muoh life in the Portland wheat market
yet, and from indications the crop will
not move aa soon as it did last year
That paper offers ' several reasons for
this, the principal one being the faot that
the farmers were hot so bard up as they
were last year, and consequently do not
feel the necessity for turning the crop
into cash immediately. Then tbe foreigu
markets are in snob shape tbat it is
almost impossible to get a bid on a new
crop cargo', while last year foreign buy
ers were taking; up everything in sight,
and paying premiums lo have ships die
patobed quickly from this coast. With
but little wheat offering, and no sale for
oargoes on the other side, it is a difficult
atter to seoore an aoonrBte quotation
f export values. Rome lots of old wbeat
aye obanged bands this week aa high
as 61 cents for Walla Walla for milling
purposes, but experts are unable to fig
ure out more than 57 cents for theoereal,
and unless they have a special place for
the occasional lots offjriog refuse to
do business.
California buyere are in the Seld, and
are pioking np oonelderable drain to bo
sent south for Ibe mills. Tbey are paying
wide range ot prices, but Gl oents tor
bluestem is about the best figure re
ported, and a snail lot ot valley was
bought reoently at GO oents.
Freights, which were snob important
factors In the price ot wbeat last season.
are holding very firm, aod it is not im
probable that tbey will go to 40s as soon
as there is muoh of a movement. Tba
entire fleet of ships, chartered and un-
cbartered.'now beaded for this coast, will
not handle to exceed one-sixth ' ot tha
crop If it should prove as large aa it was ,
I ait year, and even this list is some of it
far away as next January. Mean
while tonnage that was expected to
point this way is being taken np for
nitrate at tba highest rates tbat bava
prevailed for years. The Germao ship
Parnassus, now at Port Los Angela',
wbiob refused a Portland charter at con
siderable better than 3U, w,is chartered
this weok to prooeed to the weet coast of
Houth America to load nitrate al 30 1, and
tba British bark Holt Hill, 2,209 tons,
now at Hao Uifgo, baa been taken for
same busioeas at 30s ; and on top ot this
news cornea a foreign oable slatiug that
otlrate freights ars advanoing.
Tha Briliib bark La llill.a 2,700 too
vassal, now at Nagasaki, one ut Iba
bandimt ports from which Portland cao
draw eemi diitant binnags, is fix ad for
Calootts bmiueia.kftiir offering for grain
from Portland or Pogfl sound. Nothing
but a booming freight market would
bava prevented these three vrasls, es
pecially tbs two io California, from com
ing north for wbeat, and this condition
ot tha foreign market bodtts no good for
Iha wheat-growers. Last yar, whro
wheat aoarid op to tbe dollar mark, Iha
tha extra 10 cants per hnihel which tba
shipowner damaodinl and received for
tnigbt, as soon as Iba wbeil nioviment
aa fairly under way, did not cot ao
mnob ot o figure, bul Ibis siaaoo, with
tba low pries of wbeat anl poor pros
pacts of better prio-, any advance io
