REVIEW or PORTLAND WHOLESALE MARKET

FOR THE WEEK ENDING, Jan. z.
The di distribution of general merchandise has
improved considerably during the past week.
Leading food products hold a drmer position but
there has been no radical change in any line of
goods. Hog products have been stronger under
the iufiueuee of the advance in the Western
markets. In Gran, car lots of Corn show slight
rise In prices. and for Sacked Bran the market
has developed considerable strength, bling quot
ed about VI above last weeks figures; Middlings
also have moved up. The Dry Fish trade is good
with Coofsh carce and little higher. Mackerei
are irmer; gu ,tations remain the same, but we
learn that buyers from Philadelphia have BEEN
here and bought few lots, paying an advance
Over former prices Sugars m dntain a firm posi-
ton; there has been more doing in New York at
slight advance, no change in this market. For all
kinds of mild Coffees a strong feeling prevails,
and supplies reported small Teas frmer and
higher on Fornosas. Fresh Beef active with
better supply: market steady without quotable
change ia prices. Fresh Eggs scarce and small
lots have been sold as high as 35c. Aroostook
Potatoes sell quick at / 10. Cabbages high
dealers are now paying farmers $40 ton against
SIS last week. In Drugs. etc Outline and Nor
phine have dropped. Turpentine easier at 43@
"a &c. Linseed aud Boiled Oil lie IF. Sheet and
Lead Pipe declined Ac. Coal unchanged at So
Hay ca y with liberal offerings.

San Francisco EXAMINER
AdoIph Sutro is trying the experiment.
Of raising cinchona trees at his grounds
above the Cliff house. It is from the
bark of about dozen varieties of this
tree that quinine is extracted, and If
they will thrive in this climate the trees
VIII become very valuable.
Moreover, the chinchona is a very
snowy tree and highly ornamental, some
of them growing to a height of eighty
feet. The enormous medicinal consump-
ton of the bark of the cinchona has
caused the tree to be extensively culH-
waited in India and Java. 1t grows in
high attitudes in New Grenada, Ecuador,
Peru and Bolivia, where there is q great
deal of moisture. 1t has been tried with
success in Australia, near the seacoast,
aud Mr.. Sutro thinks some Of the varie-
ties will grow here, where there is q
moisture in the atmospheric al ths,zsar

The Rosetta stone,

The Rosetta Stone," a famous Egyp-
tan curiosity now in the British Muse
pm, was discovered In the year 1899 by
d. Boussard, French explorer, near
Rosetta, a seaport of lower Egypt. 1t is
OF black basalt, about forty inches long
and thirty inches wide, with three en-
grayed inscriptions upon Its surface.
The first of these is in Greek, the second
q conglomeration Of hieroglyphics, the
third IN enchorial writing, system used
by the Egyptians IN recording every day
matters. After years Of laborious re-
search the savants Of Europe ascertain
ed that the three inscriptions were three
versions Of decree In honor Of Ptolemy
Epiphones by the priests of Egypt, be.
cause he had RENTED their taxes. This
wonderful relic dates about two cent
uries before the beginning of the Chris
Han era.-
