One Reason for the Depression In Cali fornia Fmita. The Northwestern Wholesale Grocers' Asso ciation of Bt Paul has issued the following circular to the fruit-growers and dried-fruit dealers of Caliiornia: This association, representing as It does all the wholesale grocers doing business in the great Northwest, protests acainst the present demoral ized condition of the dried fruit market, growing out of the indiscriminate shipments of dried fruits by the frult-erowers of your stete to farm proauce and preen fruit dealers in this section of the coun- The practical effect of this is that such shipments are thro>vn on this market oy such farm produce and green fruit dealers at prices ruinous to both the original shippers and to the legitimate dealers li, dried fr'ilts. and such shipments are sold with out regard to their value at whatever prices may be offered for them. The poods are used us baits to increase the sale of oranges, lemons and farm products, and the principal object sought to be gained Is the commis sion to be earned, without proper regard to the in terests of the shipper. Such sales establish a ficti tious price and depreciate the real value of every pound of like goods which we may beat that lime carryine in stock. Our market is thus kept in un certainty, and legitimate handling of such goods is made unsatisfactory and hazardous. We feel that the interests of the California fruit growers, the legitimate handlers of dried fruit in California and the jobbers in groceries (which in clurte dried fruits) in this market are identical, and none of them are benefited by the slaughter ing of goods in the manner suggested. It is foreign to our wishes or interests that the fruit-growers of the Pacific Coast should be ruined by the sacrifice of their products in this market. We therefore hereby place ourselves on record as being wholly opposed to the methods referred to, which are subversive of the best interests of all parties concerned, and respectfully recommend to the fruit-crowers of California that they should ignore delusive circulars or personal solicitors from this station of the Northwest soliciting indi vidual shipments to unknown parlies, who may premise enticing returns from such shipments: and we further recommend them to dispose of their products through known and regular dealers or brokers in dried fruit, and not otherwise. Very respectfully, Northwestern Wholesale Grocers' Association, by J. 11. Beck. secretary. Commenting on the above a leading local authority on dried iruit says: This should be of interest to every one in the dried fruit business, showlngthat the East is in as bad shape as we are, and mainly through the folly of our California growers in rising to the gaudy fly o! the Irresponsible solicitor of consignments. ' -■ i explanation. The arrow flies with the wind. The top flgnrM at station Indicate maximum temperature for the days; those underneath It, if any, the amount ot rainfall, of melted snow in inches and hundred during the past twelve hours. Isobars, or solid lines, connect points of equal air pressure; iso therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. Th« word -high" means high barometric pressure and Is usually accompanied by fair weather; "low" refers to low pressure, and Is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains. "Lows" lisually first appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure Is high in the interior and low along the coast, and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probable: but when the -low" is inclosed with isobars of marked curva ture rain south of Oregon is improbable. With r. "high" in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the California coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in win ter. The reverse of these condition* will produo* *n opposite result. WEATHER BUREAU REPORT. United States Dkpartmest op Agriccl/- TfRK, WKATIIER BUEKAC, SaN FRANCISCO, April 8, 1896, 5 p. m.

CHICAGO MARKETS, CHICAGO, lix., April B.— The wheat market was charged with bull feeling this j morning, and It took a great while for the enthusiasm to calm down. Right at the start prices were a shade below where they closed on Monday, and consid erably under the curb quotations of yesterday. But a -very few moments passed, however when a sharp advance took place, "shorts" covering ner vously, and believers of values ; buying with abandon. - The fact that Liverpool showed no dis position to. keep pace with us, as seen in a decline o? i.id this morning, was the explanation of the easier opening, but the crowd looked for a bullish Government report, and that dwarfed other con siderations. Realizing sales caused recessions later In the mornin?, business becoming rather dull, when the buying fever abated. Receipts at Chicago were 30 cars. The Northwest had 314 cars, against 257 last Wednesday and 184 a year ago. withdrawals from store at this place were 110,656 bushels. Closing continental cables were generally lower. Export clearances at Atlantic ports for two days amounted to 631,440 bushels. The market devel oped quit a weak feeling near the close, and prices declined to the lowest point of the session at that time, determined buyers of early in the session I being quite as eager to sell later. May wheat ; opened frsm 66% to 66y 2 c, advanced to 68c, de | clined to and closed at 66ViC Vi@ s /8C under Mon -1 day. Estimated receipts for to-morrow 20 cars. I CORN— Was helped by wheat, but owing to the i inactivity of trade in this grain values fluctuated , but slowly. The opening' was easy, following 1 which a slight Improvement look place. Liver pool cables were quiet and i,4d lower. Receipts were 396 cars, and 183,000 bushels were with drawn from store. Export clearances for two days amounted to 640,557 bushels. The late easy feel ing of wheat was participated in by corn. May corn opened from 30i4®305/gC to 30Vac, sold be tween 30y c and 3oy B e, closing at the inside, Vg@ Vie under Monday. Estimated receipts for to morrow 220 cars, OATS— If oats derived any benefit from the strength of wheat It was scarcely apparent. Prices were possibly a trifle steadier than they otherwise would have been, but quotations were generally lower than Monday. Better seeding conditions were reported throughout the country, that serv ing to cause an easy feeling. Receipts were 264 cars and 1000 bushels were taken from store. May oats closed Vi@ 5 /8C under Monday. Estimated re ceipts for tomorrow 180 cars. FLAX— Was firm. Cash. 90c: May, 2 @B9c; September. 93c. * Receipts were 34 cars. ' PROVISIONS— Product was firm and higher to day. Trading was of fairly good proportions, buy ers evlnding a little more courage. The late de cline leaves room for a rally and operators are in clined to play for one. . The hog market was firm and 5c higher, and that in addition to the buoy ancy of wheat was of assistance to provisions. The decline In wheat later was Influential in weaken ing the product before the close. May pork closed 6c under Monday, May lard 2'/ 2 c higher and May ribs unchanged. Closing Prices.

Early trading was at an advance of 10c. but buyers held back later, and the close was slow. Offerings of hogs were light, and everything was well taken. An average advance of 5c was ■ noted.
