THE WHEAT TRADE
EXPOUT MAI'.KET .'' VEHY OUIET.
'WITH Xp DEMAXD AT PIIES
EXT PlilCES. .
--; (From Wednesday's Daily.)
The local wheat market is very
iuiet. as the greater; portion of the
wh-at crop of J1W3 is already disposed
of, or at least, passed from the grow
ers" hand3. Most of the farmers were
fortunate enough to be able to sell
for 75 cents per ikishel net, and those
who refused to sell at this figure, have
since been loth to let go at a much
lower price, and are still holding. How- K
eytr, probaly hot more than ojie-'
fourth of the enMre crop Is still held
by growers. F
With valley wheat quoted in Port
land at 78 cents, the export price at
this point 'cannot exceed 68 cents per
bushel,; but a premium over this price
has been paid the entire year, tiie
market never going : below 70 cents.
i where it stands at. present. It is
probably well worth that pi ice for
milling purposes, and the splendid
Oriental trade opening up for Oregon
flour Is making it possible for the
mills to grind nearly all of the wheat
laised in-Oregon. .Some local buyers,
and interior mills, ure offering a pre
mium of "! to 5 cents oyer the market
price for wheat, ' as they have not
enough to supply their "tfade. but t'nis
liberality does not cost them much, as
very little wheat Is left in the coun
try, which is not stored in i" Vre
houses, ; . J. :" -
The Conim-rciaj lievb w of Portland.

ontje condition of the Portland niar-
"The loeal market j is very ifiaet l
and th saim' is- true of iiU-.-rior mar

low that many holders prefer to take

some time to come. The sittmtiou'
here-may be summed up a3 follows:
lluyrrs will trade only on i ,ie real 'Ex
port, values and holders wt'iit seli ex
cept at an advance. If srilers would
show u clist'osition to aoethd niatket
values, probably, shippers would pay
some attention to free tonnage and
rid the port of disengaged shiis. Sel
lers are asking from 3 to a cents ir
bushel more than the exporters would
pay. and a dea'Il'X k exists that will
not probably h brk'-l before the.be
giuutng .f the n w year. T.u- nioney

it is lutrd to finance eery larg- st,oeks,
