WEEKLY MARKET LETTER..
Downing, Hopkins & Co.'s Review OF
Trade.

Downing, Hopkins & Co.'s Review or
Trade.
Portland, Or, Oct. Wheat has
taken a position as the leading specu-
latiye commodity, and there is grad
ual return of confidence among the bust
ness and speculative public. The res
toration among the first named class
has gone far toward helping the lat
ter, but the spectators were the frst
to start it. Imports of gold, which
have thus far been about $40, 600, 600,
counting that already received and en-
gagged and in tranist, will reach $780,
600, 900 before the end. Those best in
formed among the foreign bankers say
that the top figures will be reached in
side of the next thirty days. The
movement, however, will continue at
ter that time on a moderate scale, as
our exports are heavy and the exchange
market will be too low for gold ship
ments to be checked. It also looks as
though our exports will be large until
the first of the year, as about all the
freight room has been engaged up to
that date, and steamers that have been
in the Indian trade are coming to the
Atlantic ports for loads. This shows
that there is nothing in the Southern
hemisphere to tempt the boats in that
direction. Last week our exports were
4,215, 794 bushels wheat and flour from
both coasts, and for the past four
weeks have been nearly 10000, 600
bushels.
All the evidence is at hand to show
that the arena of depression is gradu-
ally passing away, and that the prices
on farm products have touched the
lowest point. Inside of thirty days
there has been a surprising change for
the better. Wheat has advanced 1879
cents for December; corn and oats are
up cents; rye has made better i'm
provement than the other coarse grains,
6b cents. Chicago has not been alone
in the advance as prices at other mar
kets have appreciated rapidly. This
advance in the face of only a fair
trade, with no short interest Of any
moment and q moderate run Of outside
buying orders, showed that it had
merit. In the past large part of the
big advances have been produced by
the covering of heavy lines of shorts.
The bulge of 80 cents last year was
largely the result of the covering by
Partridge, Rosecranz, and a few other
big shorts. This bulge has been differ.
emit from all others. being based entire
ly on the cash demaud and foreign
buying, as there have been no large
shorts. Another strong feature Of the
advance in wheat is the fact that the
cash markets have followed futures
closer than for years. Millers and
shippers have taken low grades SO fast
that there has not been such strong,
healthy condition in twenty years.
Farmers in the winter wheat country
are holding for higher prices, but
within the past week there has been a
loosening up in offerings from Nebras-
ka and Northern Kansas, the result Of
the sharp advance. There is also talk
of the Northwestern movement enlarg-
ing. Millers at Minnesota are paying
a premium for cash lots, and the best
posted men there say that the mills re-
quire all the wheat raised there this
year. The visible supply increased l..
41O, 1000 bushels on Monday, and now
totals 30, 116, 900 bushels.

ready received, or at least expected,
says the Statesman. Many of the
growers have contracted their hops, in
odrer to procure an advance to enable
them to pick. This course has been
followed to such an extent this year
that but small percentage of the crop
is really in the hands of independent
growers, and they will, of course, hold
their hops until the market suits them.
The crop of Oregon will prove to be
about what it was estimated earlier in
the season, about 100000 bales. The
quality, in most cases, is exceptionally
good, although some overdried hops are
found, and some few have been sam.
pied that are badly tainted with mould.
Sevearl heavy shipments have been
made from Salem already, the pur.
chases averaging to 6 cents, although
one heavy grower is reported as having
disposed of his crop in two different
lots at cents per pound. one lot going
to California firm, represented in
Salem by an agent, the other being
purchased by an Eastern hop factory.

treaty, surrenders her rights to try her
own subjects in her own courts in
Tunis, and receives in exchange COM
mercial concessions, among which is
the right to have Italian vessels ad-
mitted to French ports under the same
conditions as French vessels, Italy
making similar concessions to France.

Work will be commenced soon on the
old Placerfield mine on the Columbia
river, near the Colville reservation.
The mine is not new one. 1t was
formerly owned by wild Goose Bill'

the prospect, because of a lack of wa.
ter. In after years Cinnamon worked
the mine during the spring, while the
snow from the surrounding hills was
melting away, which furnished small
amount of water.
The contract has been let by the
Northern Pacific Railway Company for
the filing in of the space spanned by
the Cedar creek nestle, four miles
southeast of Garfield. The trestle is a
long one, eighty-three feet high at the
highest point, and will require vast
amount Of work to fill it. The cost Of
making the fill is estimated at $47, 900.
A new trestle could be built for about
$4,000, but as it would have to be re.

cided that fill would be cheaper in
the long run.
