Condition of Trade. | | The New York circular of Henry Clews says: “There i a very important fact which sus- tains the courage of constitutional bulls, and is the satisfactory condition of general business. Clearing-house returns are much in excess of a vear aso, Which considering the inactivity of speculation is unquestionable tes- v of trade activity.

It is somewhat kabie not a little suggestive that in the great trusts which have been the past four or five years there aint of oppressive monopoly. 1Is tside competition is actink as pon these powerful corporation, or is public opinion less hostile than formerly? “ery likely both factors are partly responsible trust managers find it unprofitable and fe to wholly disregard public opinion. An- other indication of the satisfactory condition of business is the small number and reduced volume of business failures compared With previous vears. Business men are generally anticipating a good fall trade, and it is grati ing to mote prevalence of a tone of con- servatism which will tend to prevent overdoing. Of the general soundness of business there is no question and thus far there are few or no complaints of overproduction.” The Oregon Crops. The weekly report of Edward A. Beals. sec- tion ai of the weather bureau, reports the condition of the Oregon crops as follows Thrashing is advancing rapidly and the yields continue good. Those reported this weex are as follows: Lane County, wheat 25 bushels to t 30; Washington, wheat 20 to 35, oa Benton, wheat 2 to 35, oats 20 to Yamhil, wheat 15 to 20, oats 20 to 40; Clackamas, wheat 14 to 25, oats 2 to 45; Linn, spring wheat 5 to 3), oats 14 to 46; Marion, wheat 18 to . spring oats 3 to 45; Josephine, wheat § to 30; Polk, winter wheat 2{, epring wheat 16, cats 33, barley 26. Hop picking has begun in Southern Oregon, and it will begin this week in the Willamette The hops are maturing rapidly and the quality in all parts of the State is reported extra good, but the vields, it is belleved, will be slightly less than those of last year. Corn is maXing good advancement, but on account of the cool spring and subseghient dry weather not over half a crop will be harvested. Early toes are of good quality, free from blight, 3 Late potatoes have improved . but_the crop without more owed by favorable temperature con- will fall considerably below the aver- former years. The third crop of alfalfa e cut and the yields are about the same any will become general throughout the nd it State in about ten days. The prunes are slight- iy undersized, but their quality is above the average. Peaches, pears and some fall apples ng marketed. Although the entire crop ruit is not laree it is maturing nicely is unusually sound and well flavored. Dricd Fruits in New York. Mail advices from New York say: “‘The demoralization of raisin affairs on the u coast has had its effect on the spot and loose. Muecatels have declined %c to 6%c for 3-crown and 6%c for 4-crown. Actual stocks in the bands of local jobbers are understood to be light, but a large Philadelphia dealer is offer- ing ireely at the prices quoted. Trade, how- ever, is closely confined to purchases for im- mediate wants. While the president of the Raisin Association continues his ‘smashing’ tactics it is doubtful if any buver here will have the temerity to buy a round lot of spot raisins, unless the prices are very substantially shaded and an immediate outlet is in sight Seeded ralsins continue in good in & small w There was practically Do interest in new Malaga raisins before the California situation became so unsettled and naturally, in the light of recent developments on this side of the water, prospects for Mal- agas are very discouraging.

Sept. 1L.—The organized pro- tection of the stock market by concert of the powers was in evidence to some extent to-day. There was much realizing on all advances by this element of holdings acquired on Saturday and early this week in the furtherance of pur- Pose to support the market. The realizing was accomplished probably on a demand from uncovered shorts, as there was no evidence of an outside interest in the mar- ket or of a disposition to accumulate stocks by large banking interests. The position of the market is thus restored approximately to that which obtained before the attempt on the President’s life on every afternoon. The pur- pose to protect the market on the part of com- bined capitalists is not changed, apparently, but there was not the same effort shown to advance prices or invite speculation. The reopening of the President’s wound last night, while it occasioned no actual uneasiness here, seems to have affected sentiment in Lon- don, and sales here for London account had to be taken care of on a considerable scale for the first time in many davs. The contradiction of last night's rumors of a steel strike settle- ment resulted in a reaction in the United States Steel stocks. The effect of the Treasury's proposals for re- lief of the money market was confined to sur- jmise, as no statement was forthcoming as to the amount of bonds offered or the prices asked. There were significant advances in the bid prices of Government bonds on call, which carried prices of all the Government issues, ex- cept the short fours to 11 ber cent over the prices ruling before the Secretary's order. Rallroad bonds were dull and Irregular. To- tal sales, par value, $1,785,000. United States threes advanced %, the twos and fives % and the new fours 1 per cent on the last call. NEW YORK STOCK LIST.

YORK, Sept. 11.—The Commercial Ad- vertiser's London financial cablegram says: The stock market here to-day was firmer, except in the American department. These shares, after a steady opening, fell about halt & point from parities. The reason commonly attributed was nervoufiness over the bulletin which announced that President McKinley had undergone a fresh operation. The general opinion is that there are more doctors around the market than there are around Mr. Me- nley. Business on this side was meager, with little change in the afternoon. Republic Steel jumped a full point on strong support in New York. CLOSING.

State June *: * CHICAGO, Sept. 1L—Wheat opened higher on a Government report showing the crop of both spring and winter wheat to be at considerable variance with the estimates of experts, but the lack of any outside demand entirely offset the bullish effect of the crop bulletin and after a momentary strength early prices gradually de clined. The decline in corn and continued 1ib- eral receipts in the Northwest were also bear features. There was a good sized export busi- ness at the seaboard with fair clearances, but absence of any considerable trading kept prices down. December closed 3@lzc lower at 70%c. A reduction in the total corn crop of .two. thirds from the August report, as given out in the Government report, was the cause of the strong opening in that grain and there was a fairly good demand during the first few min. utes of trading. On the bulge there was a large amount of long stuff thrown on the mar ket and the early advance was more than ail lost. Covering by shorts brought about a re- action of lc, but heavy selling again carried prices down. ' December closed %c lower at bio. Oats opened higher in sympathy with other grains, but were comparatively steady through- out the day. December closed a shade higher at_35@35%e. There was a fair trade in provisions at times and the opening was at steady prices. Under the influence of grains longs disposed of much of their holdings, causing a weaker tone, Fluc- tuations were within a narrow range.

There’ was no further decline in Butter, and, indeed, some dealers are Inclined to think that the bottom had been reached, as the lower prices have already stimulated the consump- tion somewhat. Cheese rules firm at unchanged prices. The demand for Eggs Is less keen, as the advance has tended to cut down the consump- tlon. There is no weakness, however, and the tendency is still upward. Local dealers are industriously using the present opportunity to work off their Eastern and cold-storage goods. Receipts were 21,300 pounds of Butter, pounds Eastern Butter, 638 cases of Eggs, 1345 cases of Eastern Eggs, 19,200 pounds of Califor- nia Cheese and — pounds of Eastern Cheese.

A cireular for Australia says: “Since the departure of the steamer Slerra for Australia, August 1, there have been the following de- liveries of coal from the colonies, viz. Bay, . There is but ome vessel due to arrive from there in the next thirty days. There are on the chartered list to carry coal from Newcastle and Sydney twenty-seven Vvessels with a carrying capacity of about | 80,000 tons; some of these will not arrive here before the end of the year. Thirty days ago there were only nineteen vessels on the en- gaged list, with a carrying capacity of about 60,000 tons, hence there was an increase of about 20,000 tons during the month of August to be loaded for this port. Last cabled reports | quoted present coal rates from Neweastle at | thirteen shillings per ton: this is an advance of one shilling over and above the rates ruling last month. This will serve to check IWH’IIGQI heading this way, as with the present quoted rates for freight Australlan coal is not in de- mand as a competitor with our northern fuel. Besides the present asking prices for New- castle coals will serve to keep them out of this market, as they are fully two shillings per ton too high. Prior to the general consump- tion of fuel oil here, we were enabled to pur chase the leading brands of colonial coals at over two shillings per ton less than they are held at to-day, which virtually resigns the con- trol of the fuel market to oil.” OILS—California_Castor Oil, in cases, No. 1, 70c; pure, $122; Linseed Oil, in barrels, | boiled, 56c: raw, 54c; cases, 5¢ more; Lucol. 50c for boiled and 48c for raw in barreis; Lard Oil, extra winter strained, barrels, Sic: cases, e: China Nut, 5@72c per gallon: pure Neats- foot Oil. barrels, 67%c; cases, T2%c; Sperm, pure, 65c; Whale Oil, natural white, lflo-fic’ per gallon; Fish OIl, 'in barrels, 37iic: qases, | 42%4¢ in bulk, .

West Shore Oil Company has declared a divi- dend of 5 cents, payable September 25. The directors of the Pacific Gas Improve- ment Company have passed the September dividend and issued the following explanatory circular to the stockholders: “On account of the low price of gas, brought about by com- petition, of which you are probably aware, your directors have decided to suspend divi- dends until such a time as the business of the company warrants the resumption.’ At the annual election of the Producers’ Oil Exchange on the 10th the following officers were elected: President, Willlam Edward: vice president, Charles Sonntag; secretary, R.
