What's New
on the Market
By REX STEWART

Shippers prices on eggs took a
slight increase yesterday Of one
cent a dozen. Dealers, however,
were either cent lower or the
same as that OF shippers. Their
retail prices did not advance be-
cause there is a good supply On
hand which may keep the market
down for q few days. Tine PEE
yailing retail price is 20 cents.
California Cabbage is retailing
at eight and nine cents pound.
Retailers complain Of short
weighted deliveries to excuse the
wide margin between the whole
sale and retail prices. Oregon
cabbage is cent or two lower in
retail price, but is rather poor
stuff.
Local potatoes are being bought
for 81 per hundred pounds and
sold for $3.50. A pretty good
price-for the retailer. There at
least must be forty per cent
profit.
Butter remains firm with no
foreign shipments in sight TO
cause a fluctuation in the dome es-
tic situation.

A transcript Of the minutes OF
the meeting OF the state highway
commission in Portland recently
will be read at meeting OF prop
erty owners interested in the e2-
tension of North Capitol street
and the construction of an over
head yiaduct across the Southern
Pacific tracks in the Commercial
club tonight at s o'clock.
The meeting is called tonight
for the purpose of keeping alive
the desire for better and safer
street, agitation for which has
been going on for the last two
years.
At a meeting held some time
ago, number of property owners
objected to the construction of the
viaduet because it would destroy
the value of their property, by
placing them below the street
level and by diYerting traffic..
The extension OF Capitol street
will be the main issue tonight.
TIE property through which the
road must run is through lots pc
longing to the estate OF a. II.

cession for its transfer.
