Portland Wholesale Market.

PORTLAND. Jan. IL. 1895
The markets are little quiet. but the situa-
ton seems to improve slowly. every day. with
a decidedly better tone in some lines of goods.
Flour for instance is much more satisfactory,
in sympathy with higher prices for Wheat, the
Improvement being due to better foreign de-
mand. The latest cables note an Improvement
in the prices of Flour and Wheat in the English
market, with an increased demand. 1T is fact
in the Flour market noted by the large milling
concerns that are running, that the orders for
shipping out Flour are great deal more free,
This is especially being noted within few
days, and it is evident that the iobbers and gro
GERS are going to want more Flour at once. The
market for pork products is also quite firm. The
fresh beef market IS strong at the advance, Eggs
unsettled and lower. Corn higher. Sweet Po-
tatoes are reported lower. Apples are very
steady with fancy No Baldwins selling at
So rs, for such there is good shipping de-
mand, but good many of the Apples that are
shipped here for Is would not bring one dollar
barrel in the English market.

A PLENTY.
Nurserymen Believe That Fruit
Will be Plenty.
They Gather in Convention at
Indianapolis.
CATI. ON HAppTCON
CALL ON HARRISON.
There is No Speech Making but
Simply Greetings.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June 13-The
American Association of Nurserymen
began its annual session at the Deni-
son hotel in this city at 10 o'clock yes
terday. The convention is composed
of all the nurserymen east of the
Rocky mountains, and has a large
membership. About $50 delegates
were present. Twenty-Five states are
represented. It was the opinion that
the general condition of the industry
was good, and that fruit prospects in
the west were unusually promising. A
balance of 81, 500 was reported in the
treasury.
Yesterday afternoon the members
call on ex-President Harrison at his
residence. There was no speech-mak-
ing, and only an exchange of greetings
was INDUCED in. The following officers
were elected for the ensuing year:
President, Silas Wilson, Atlantic City,
Ia; vice president, George A. Sweet,
Seager, of Rochester, n. Y; treasurer,
n. A Whitney, Franklin Grove, Ill;
executive committee, c. L. Watrous,
Iowa; Irving Rouse, New York and R.
c. Berchmans, Georgia. Chicago was
chosen as the next place of meeting.
THE GOLD FEVER IN OKLAHOMA.
PERRY, Ok, June 13.-The gold fever
in the Washita country seems to
be catching all over the territory.
Many people passed through here yes
terday for the land of the gold mines
and many people have come from
all over the territory. A man
living in Perry, who is an old gold
miner, says he knows every foot of
country on Doggy creek, the place
where the treasure is found, and he
says the ground is pregnant with it.
The Indians have always kept the min
ing region guarded. Several men have
been killed in years past by the indians
for hunting the precious metal in the
vicinity. The excitement is greater
than the Kickapoo opening created.
FURNITURE MANUFACTURERS IN SESSION.
CHICAGO, June 13.-The National AS
ISOLATION of Furniture Manufacturers
opened its seventh annual conven ton
at the Palmer house yesterday with
about 100 prominent manufacturers
present. President Otto Strehba of
indianapolis, in his annual address,
strongly favored combination among
the branches of the trade. He said
that competition has put prices below
the profit point, and urged the immedi-
ate effecting of com bination.
AN INCREASE IN WAGES.
CHICAGO, June 13.-Crane & Co., man
ufacturers of pipe fitting and brass
goods, announced 10 per cent. in
crease in wages yesterday. The in
crease affects $500 men. The firm an
nounced that the great improvement
in its own business within the last few
months and the general business re-
vival justifes higher wages.

sIBLEY TO SILVER MEN.
He Created Great Enthusiasm by HIS
Speech at Memphis.

Speech at Memphis.
MEMP HIS. Tenn, June 13-After the
silver convention had organized yester-
day by the election of Senator Tur-
pie of Indiana as permanent chairman,
the various committees were selected
The resolutions committee included W.
j. Bryan, of Nebraska; Senator Jones,
of Arkansas; Senator Harris, of Ten
nessee; Senator Tillman, of South Car
DINA; Senator Marion Butler, of North
Carolina; Alexander Delmar, of Cali
fernia, and Senator Turpie, of Indiana
On motion of Judge j. II. Mcdowell,
of Tennessee, the populist party was
accorded a represen tative on the COM
mittee on resolutions. The chairman
then introduced Hon. Alex De1mar, of
California, the eminent coinage author,
who spoke at length.
At the evening session, which began
promptly at o'clock, Senator William
NJ. Stewart, of Nevada, presided and
introduced Congressman Joseph c.
Sibley, of Pennsylvania. Mr.. Sibley
was greeted with thunderous ap-
plause, and in two hours speech
aroused his audience to high pitch
of enthusiasm. He made an earnest
appeal for Independent political action
in 1896 and occupied a good deal of
time illustrating the necessity of
breaking away from the old parties.
His auditors were evidently with him,
for every time he asked the crowd if they
would remain with their own parties
and continue the domination of Eng
lish power, he was greeted with a
chorus of Noes" He paid his respects
to the president and Secretary Carlisle
in very plain language for their part in
the demonetizing of silver and fasten-
ing upon the country the gold stand
ard.
eve must win this fight in 1896" con-
tinued Mr.. Sibley, cor we lose it be-
You'd the lifetime of my generation or
the one that follows it. You cannot
put this fight off beyond 1896 and win
it. If the monometallists win, then
comes the retirement of greenbacks,
the forging of 5Oo 600, 900 letters on our
industries. There are other great
questions to be considered, but they
are insignificant as compared with this
one. If we lose this fight in 1896, two
great conditions are to be feared-re-
pudiation or revolution. One or the
other is sure to come"
Mr.. Sibley expounded the political
axioms, which, he said, contained the
result of his studies of the money
question. They were: First double
the volume of money and you double
prices; second, divide the volume OF
money and you divide prices; third,
double the volume of money and you
divide the debts; fourth, divide the
volume of money and You double the
| debts.

A Severe Windstorm and Terrific Rains
Does Much Damage.

A Severe Windstorm and Terrific Rains
Does Much Damage.
GUTHRIE, Ok. June ia terrific
downpour of rain, accompanied by
hurricane, visited this section at day
light yesterday morning, thorough
soaking the ground and filing all the
streams. The wind did a great amount
of damage in this city and surround
ing country and a number of people
were injured, but none fatally. In
this city number of residences were
badly wrecked, while scores of
barns and other buildings were
destroyed. The fences and buildings
at the state fair grounds were demol-
ished; the tower at the electric light
works was blown over and the fire
alarm tower wrecked, while hundreds
of trees were broken off In the coun-
try northwest of here a number of
houses were injured, but the rain
has done so much good that the people
have little to say about the damage,
which will certainly aggregate we'll up
in the thousands.
