: Portland.-The strong export de-
mand is the feature Of the saimo
market Domestic trade has bee
: good all the season, and with foreig
: business increasing the situation
entirely satisfactory at this end, an
there is every prospect that the pac
will be entirely cleaned up
= European orders heretofore this Sc;
) son have been for medium grades, an
large quantity of Alaska reds an
silversides has been disposed OF. No
8 the London trade is becoming interes
4 ed In fancy Columbia River chinook
an inquiry of this kind having bee
1 received yesterday.
The British steamer City of Corintl
, now loading on the Sound, will reac
: Portland the latter part OF the weel
e and will take ON between 5000 an
10000 cases of salmon here for Lol
: don. The steamer Tampico left dow
+ the river carrying $50 tons Of salmo
| for west coast points.
The steamer Yucatan will reach A
toria in a few days with about $500
cases of Alaska fish, and the steamt
Despatch is also due there from Ala
! ka with a salmon cargo. All the Por
land salmon ships are now In
l. Eastern salmon orders are also Il
! creasing, new development Of tn
i trade being the booking of new bus
:, ness with Boston. A still heavier to-
:. mage could no doubt be disposed OF bl
: for the interruption of Panama Cam
e traffic. The blockading of the can
8 and the congestion Of freight at Ga
y weston has left the Eastern marke
:. lightly supplied, and some grades
e salmon are practically unavailab
there.
e The total shipments Of canned SAIL
g on by land and sea from Americs
q ports for the present year up to Sc
g TENDER l were 2,676,795, as compare
d with total Of 1901 1896 for the san
period last year. Inasmuch as lari
percentage of the Alaska pack for tn
year had not reached San Francis
II by September /. this season, the pac
ers expect that more recent shipmen
= will show a still greater increase ov
a the shipments that were made la
n year. In the first part Of the yes
5. before the current seasons pack
gan to move, Puget Sound export
$50, 900 cases of salmon to Great Br
g. ain. double the quantity exported
a that country last year.
