THE sTggAT mARKEr.

fhe following is taken from the
Portland Journal Of Commerce of last
week:
Yesterday the foreign market exhib
tied more firrnness than has charac
terized it at any time this week, and
while va,ues slowed no change the
tone was better. 0@ing 10 the dis
couraging advices buyers here held of,
and il would have been extremely
difficult to have placed l>ts Yesterday
at 81 55. We could fud no Que will
ing to paw that in open market.
Sales for the week amounted to almost
nothing, AZ holders declined TO talk
less than 81 GO. Exporters haze now
considerable wheat on hand, enough 10
meet their needs for some time 10 come.
This IL largely froul the Walla Walla
section where farmers have been Will
ing sellers at the fair price offered.
They have dore we'll, much better than
have valley farmers who imagine they
ought to he able TO control the market.
E4stein Oregon and Washington can
furnish enough wheat to load all the
ships nov known to be on the way here
if the wheat can be got to tide water.
The river company can now handle
about 500 tons daily, and this is aecu-
mu:ating here now 30 there is a very
small chance of grain being worth over
) 60 here at any time this season.
TITS is more than cetts above to-day g
orsn market quotation, and it is
tI.oueht tie 3 cents viii cover any ben
M we could possibly receive by reason
ii improvement abroad. Should the
foreign market look up, and it proba-
bly, will to the extent of few shillings,
the advance will almost all be swallow
Ell by shipowners. It is plain that
SHIPS have the advantage, and It i
plain that they will not share it with
the farmers If there is any way Of
avoiding it. True, there are a number
of ships taken to arrive at rs Cd TO
8Js, but for the most of the exporters
have provided, and the low charter
rate will not benefit the wheat holder.
The market will be ruled by freight
rates which will be governed by prices
Of wheat abroad. just at this time
we are getting more benefit from
foreign values than we shall later on.
Tile freight situation is pretty generally
understood and appreciated, ~ is its
bearing npon local wheat valnes.
When another charter is n.a.ie We ex-
pect To re,,orb It at about 92s 6l for
immediate Io.uling II made shortly, but
il n ne are reported soon higher rate
may lie f,aid.. Il now appears l,roba-
bic ibst the fersien market IS taking
another favorable turn. Ytstrrday
the San Fsarci@eo market was IN apt-
fer faeling, buyers inqairina more, but
little selling heing done. t2notations
were 81 500 81 for choice to extra
choice shipping. As the. San Francis
60 pfoduce exchange is closed until
Monday very light business will be
done there The New York exchanges
were closed Yesterday

The lsleAlEan fires.

Dispatches up to the 9th inst say
that at Point Reach. where no fresh FIRE
disasters are expected, the lowest esti-
mates make 2l5 families burned ont in
the towns of Marlette, Lynn, Argyle,
Evergreen, Moore, Lamotte and Elmer,
Sanelac county, and 80 persons are
known to be dead. The fires are most
y ont and the inhabitants are sitting
about the ashes of their former homes /;
many are burned and otherwise injured.
They are disconsclate and almost hereft
of their senses. Provisions, clothing,
bedding and other necessaries are being
constantly forwardedand men are travel
ing through the buried sections distrib-
uting supplies and taking tho names Of
those who are in need. Many persons
are still missing in the burned districts
and the exact loss cannot be known for
some days. Sixty-fve burials are al
ready reported in six towns and it is
said that twenty-seven dead have beeli
found in the country between Badaxe
and Port Hope. The poorer class are
the chief losers.

ruE OUTLOOK OF wnE.r


The outlook for wheat is decidedly fof
an advance. For months, intimations
have been coming from Russia, Great
Britain and the East that there would
be short crops, and as usual, in such
cases, probably, exaggerations We're
made. The market therefore moved
slowly in response rs it was affected by
an indisposition to disbelieve .these
rumors.
OF late there have been stories OF
quite a contrary tendency. Rassia,
the great gfanarv of Europe, has been
reported by the United States consul
as having, contary to expectation, an
extremely heavy crop. This is con.
templated to be explained hy some
who aver that in those places where
there is crop It is the heaviest ever
known, but that in the majority oil
cases there is no c,oa. This, however,
does not explain the matter satisfac-
torily.
The course of the market is the best
test Of the stories ms 70 crops that have
been floating round. Judged by this,
it must be held that as a whole. that
the wheat crop of the world is short.
Tho course of the market in Saa Fran.
cisco, which is governed by that oi
Liverpool, hts heen a. follows, the
quotations being for the highest gra'le
