WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Reported by Downing, Hopkins & Co., Inc.,
Board of Trade -Brokers, 711 to 714 Chamber ot
Commerce building, Portland, Oregon. , .
On the advance of 8c to 5c in wheat
at Chioago last week shoits covered
freely. They put the September to
67 , and the December to 64 5-8. It
looked at the close Saturday as if the
demand from the shorts had been ap
preciably relieved. At the same
time that the speculators were taking
in their contracts at Chioago the sea
board shippers were covering theirs
freely. There was a letting up in the
demand of both sorts during the dos
ing days of the week. Brokers with
export connections said the inquiry for
cargoes was not what it had been. The
commission people with relations in
all directions said the southwestern
and northwestern shorts bad materially
relieved their anxiety. So far as the
speculative position is concerned it did
not look as bullish last Saturday as it
did a week ago. The bear liquidation
on the advance had evened the pit up.
From being very bearish the local
crowd seemed to have become bullish;
a pretty good indication of what has
been going on." . '.
Last week's receipts were in excess
of the week : previous, although the
spring wheat movement was curtailed
somewhat by showery weather. There
were heavy clearences, largely flour.
There was a very bewildering shipping
situation most of the week. Local
receipts were so" small there ' was a
scramble from millers, elevator owners
and cargo people to get the desirable
grain. Yet the : demand was not gen
eral. On the same days some of the
most active of brokers would call the
demand poor, while others would call
it sharp, indicating that the 'smallness
of the stocks and the" lightness of the
arrivals did not require many orders to
make the demand look large to a man
who had an order for a cargo. There
were over 8,000,000 bushels at piimary
markets during the week, half at the
two Northwestern points. Duluth and
Minneapolis were strong in spite of
their heavy arrivals, but the biggest
single buyer in those markets was 8
