LOCAL FIELD OF COMMERCE A Hoped ■ for Improvement in Freight Facilities COMPETITION BY WATER A Heavy Guarantee Demanded by the Steamer Company A Convention of Fruitgrowers to Consider Questions of Interest to Those En. gaged in the Industry Local business men, under the leader ship of the directory of tae ohamber of commerce, aro still pushing earnestly to ieoure the stopnago at a Los Angeles port of the vessels of the steamship line plying between Seattle and Central Ameri can ports. Negotiations with the man agers of the steamer line have so far re sulted in an offer to make San Tedro or Port Los Angeles a stopping place if $1001) worth of freicht carriage oe guar anteed for each vessel. Considering tho size of the vessels of the line and also the numerous stopuing places along the ccast of Oregon and California, with their considerable quantities of way freight, the amount seems necessarily large and somewhat beyond the power of lius Angeles shippers. For vessels bound up. the diversion of some over land freights is practicable in hardware and building materials and stone and china ware, sewer pipe and cement, and possibly dry goods, which now linil their way by the direct overland routo or in directly by ;se« to San F'ranoisco and thence to Los Angeles by rail. The route once established the trade is very certain to grow, as Mexico and the states to the south demand large quantities of pro duce which can be raised in Southern California, even in competition with the cheap labor of the Spanish Amorioan states. Corn is the staple food of tho peo ple, and the crop is but an un •' lain one. Grain would find a market in most years and a reasonable amount of dried truit every year. Manufactured articles of var ious kinds will also find ready sale. At any rate the efforts to secure tho addi tional freighting competition are not like ly to be abandoned until a fair trial lias been made. Fruit and Transportation On tho sth of tne coming mouth tho fruit growers of Calitornia will hold a convention d t Sacramento, at which var ious questions of interest to growers and Shippers will he considered, it is safe to say that at present the most important question if. and for aonic years to come will be. that of transportation : lor the fruit growing industry of California has assumed such immense proportion? that the ever present difficulty is tne finding of an adequate market rather than finding the fruit tn fill any da mand likely to manifsst itself. Califor nia fluit growers, in the disposition of their product, are confronted by a fen ture with which the eastern horticultur ist does not have to contend, in the com paratively small local population anil the great distance to the market, which makes absolutely necessary more careful handling and better buisness methods, together with an organization and co operation of both growers anil dealers of who b the eastern producer has never dreamed. The question of transrortn tion will receive due attention at tbe coming convention, and State Railroad Commissioner La Rue will add to it the weight and Influence of his social pres ence Complimentary The St. Louis Globo-lJomocrat pays tbis tribute to the growth and develop ment of California: "California, which is forty-live years old as a slate, ii offi cially jjvnlued at $1,132,712,(171. This is $810 for every man, woman and c'-lld in the state, or $4200 for eveiv family. Such a development of wealth and social progress in half a century Could take place njwhere except in this republic." And the journal might have added, "on the fertile irrigated lands of the southern section.' inasmuch as the late increase in California values is pretty exclusively confined to the seven counties including and round about Los Angeles. LOCAL PRODUCE Wholesale a.it Refill Q 1 nations Correct:! Dally LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22. Trade seemed brighter today, though dealings in produce which the raisers most desire to dispose of were not en tirely satisfactory. Beans aro still dull, offerings exceeding the demand, though there ere some indications of improve ment in the situation. Dried fruits are still rather a drug in the mantel, with very small shipments except in the case of prunes. Fruits and vegetables are in large supply, with a good and steady de mand.

THE MARKETS BY TELEGRAPH Money, Stock, Bond and Produce Quotations WALL STREET SPECULATION The Dispatches Show a Large Supply of Wheat Large Transactions In the Boston Market Indicate the Possibility ol s Boom In Wool NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Stocks today were sluggish and the few chnngea of note recorded were the result of opera tions of the room traders. Only tho usual active shares teacher) the 10,000 share mark. Rumors of disturbances abroad in connection with African gold mining speculation, loner prices for American securities in London, and sales for that account in this market had a de pressing effect uron the opening and a rally in the foreign exchange market also had unfavorable significance. About the only delinite news was of further advances in anthracite coal prices at the east nnd west, and that fbll Mat upon the market. At the outset trading was qu'et and ir regular, with but slight obanges as a rule. Kansas & Texas preferred and sugar soon developed weakness under the hammer and yielded Important fractions. A brief veaotion ensued 111 which light recoveries were noted, but after the lirst hour prices again began to sag. Toward midday, on liberal coverings by shorts, a rallying tendency provailed. A reactionary movement again set in around the clos ing hoar. The market closed dull, with slight recessions generally in leading shares. There was a marked increase in tbe volume oi bon I transactions over yester day, the sale< aggregating $1,793,000. The movement of prices, however, was as usual of late, extremely erratic. closing steaks NEW YORK, Oct. 22.—The ottlcial clos ing quotations for stocks werj as fol lows : Atchison 20% U.
