THE LAUNCHING OF THE PROTEC-
TIVE BUREAU POSTPONED.
Remarkable Development of the Mo-
nOn-The c., VI. & st. II. and the c.
an w. Roads at Loggerheads.

As result of the meeting of the Central
Passenger Association on Wednesday In
Chicago the proposed protective bureau-a
scheme to prevent ticket scalpers manipu-
lating tickets-received a setback Whiie
1T was decided to present the matter to the
American Association of Passenger and
Ticket Agents in Portland next week, there
was lack Of interest shown which lndi-
Gated that the plan was not favored by
some lines, a fear prevailing that 1t would
work to the interests of the strong lines;
but the matter will be brought up at the
meeting next week to see If some scheme
cannot be devised that will be satisfactory
to all lines. 1t is stated that Chairman
Donald has several plans which will be ef-
fective in case the movement is under
taken. In the event of failure of action al
the general meeting Mr.. Donald will take
decisive steps in relation to some one OF his
plans. The ticket brokers claim to have no
anxiety about any action taken which may
be suggested. arguing that their business
is legitimate and that they are an aid to
the travelling public.

LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
PROVISIONS SHOW AN EASIER TONE
AND PRICES ARE EASING OFF.
Staple Groceries Indicate a Weakness
Fruits and Vegetables I'm Ample
Supply for the Demand.

An easing of in prices is one of the no
ticeable features of trade In several lines.
Provisions are showing a much weaker
tone and a decline in prices which have OF
late been steadily advanced from week to
week is now probable. Staple groceries,
which have ruled steady for weeks, show
some sign of weakness. The worlds visible
supply OF coffee increased to the extent OF
77S.37s bags during September. about 5000
bags more than was expected, and the tone
of the market has not gained the strength
expected a few days ago. Local prices are
unchanged, however, and quotations are
steady, with demand good. Sugar remains
as it was at the opening of the week Navy
beans went no higher yesterday, but they
are no lower, and SITS is the price ruling
in most transactions. Supplies of fruits and
vegetables are ample to meet the demand.
Large quantities of apples are arriving,
but choice stock is selling quite readily,
and the storing for winter sale is large.
Potatoes are in good supply and cabbage
as well, the latter moving better since
cooler weather has prevailed. Tomatoes are
in large supply for the lateness of the sea-
son. Frosts are not yet cutting them off to
any great extent. Butter presents no new
features, the market being steady at quo
tations prevailing for nearly two weeks.
Cheese holds its own. but has advanced no
further. Eggs continue to arrive in suffi-
cient quantities to supply the demand, and
are offering at old figures. The poultry sup
ply is keeping up to about an average for
the past week. and there is no difference
in quotations for any description. Demand
Is good and prices do not f1uctuate. The
dry goods houses, milliners boot and shoe
merchants and confectioners report trade
highly satisfactory. 1t is not often that a
statement of the cost of raising and mar
keting coffee upon a large scale can be OBJ
tanned. This opportunity comes through a
statement of the operations Of the Dumont
Estates Company, whose location is in the
Santos field Its invested capital is s. 800, 900.
For 1901 the year of its largest production.
the result was as follows: Production, TO-
240 pounds; price realized in London
per pound. 7.29 cents; cost Of production and
marketing, 5T cents; net profit, ZIP cents.
The net profit of $4,000 was just about 81
per cent. upon the capital invested.

Another Coal Road Opens.

A new factor in the al1-important coal sit
uation is about to be introduced. Arrange
ments have been made to open good coal
mines on the Lake Erie, Alliance & Wheel
ing road, and by Monday next shipments
will begin. The completion of the branch
from Bergholz to. Dillonvale opens this new
resource to the coal market. This branch
opens coal mines in Jefferson county, Ohio,
where 10000 acres of coal land are tapped
for the first time. The Cleveland Leader
says: From a railroad standpoint it is i'm
portant to note that the line is unattached
