THE MOKNING OREG.ONIAN, THUBSLTAY, OCTOBER 9, 1902. ---V. GROWERSINMARKET Show More Anxiety to Sell Their Hops. PRICES ARE NOT SO FIRM One Thousand Bales Changed Hands Yesterday Weekly Review the Le'cal Trade Situation THk Deal la WooL, Cereals Wheat firm; oata steady, with smaller oHerlnss. Hops Active and not so strong1, grow ers entering the market, brewers not In terested. Wool Heavy dealing In Oregons at Boston. Fruit Prices steady; demand affected byNveather conditions. Farm and Dairy Produce Poultry low and moving wefl; butter steady; cheesa firm; eggs scarce and higher. Groceries Beans, rice and oil firm; rugar etcady; coffee prices unsettled. "Meats and provisions Live and dressed meats firm; ' lard lower; side meats strong. The amount of business transacted In the Portland markets In the week Just closed has not been evenly distributed, though the vol ume of transactions was satisfactory. "Whole sale grocers report a big trade both in the city and country. Green produce Is in better de mand, but the inquiry for Summer fruits has declined with the cooler weather, though there was considerable activity in thl3 line yester day. In tho market for farm produce, poultry has been weak on the oversupply, eggs firm because of scarcity, and butter in good demand at former prices. The 'hop market has been extremely active, with growers, instead of buyers, pressing business. A steady, active trade is reported in meats and provisions, with a number of changes in the list. WHE AT Wheat was unchanged yesterday,, though the tone of the market was stronger on tho firmness In the East and the weakness -in freights. Foreign markets chow no Improve ments. There is nothing doing in charters, shipowners asking 23s, and shippers offering from 23s 63 to 23s 9d. Fifty ships of a total tonnage of 02,994 are listed for this porU The wheat situation abroad Is thus summa rized by the correspondent of the Commercial West, in hla letter, dated London, Septem ber 10: Buyers, especially In tho United Kingdom, are very' timid and afraid to lay In a heavy stock in face of tho quantity immediately available from the States, and the offers from Russia, which have been more numerous lately. There Is, however, no' pressure from any part of the world, and as we are every day coming nearer the period when buyers will have to put In some stock for Winter supply, and the pe riod when inland navigation, especially In Rus sia, closes and cuts off supplies from up-country, we cannot see any reason for a big drop, in cplte of the Continent not helping us at the moment. Of course. It may be that on account of the approach of the Winter Russia and Rou znanla may become more willing sellers as we get deeper Into Autumn, but at present there are no' Indications for such events happening. and they are unlikely to happen, especially with Roumanla. on account of tho low . water in the JDaniibc.vana.Jts tri b utar 1 es 3vhlchma kes it difficult for up-country wheat to come dowi in large quantity to the Roumanian seaboard. From France wo have advices stating that the crop in the south has been very deceptive. In fact, so much so that consumers there are Already obliged to go to the middle of France for supplies, and as this center has also to sup ply the north, owing to the poor state of the crop there, we should not be surprised If France will be an importer of foreign wheat earlier than we anticipated some time ago. From Australia reports continue fairly favor able, the late rains having decidedly Improved the outlook, but whether Australia will bo an exporter to any extent In the coming season Is very doubtful, and we shall In that case havo practically only Oregon and California to sup ply us with white wheat, and In "Oregon the crop Is expected to be only 80 per cent of that of last year; In Walla M'alla. 80 per cent In bluestem. and 60 per cent In Oregon wheat. The Argentine reports are on the whole good, and If nothing happens to Interfere with the outstanding crops this country will havo to be seriously reckoned with after tho turn of the year. Broomhall's Com Trade News of September 10 says:. Tho recent pressure on the part of the more needy farmers to market a portion of their crop, as e-idenced by the present enormous shipments. Is said to be relaxing, and there Is not a nuge American crop this season to hansr menacingly over the market, as there was last season, consequently one may perhaps venture to hope for a livelier condition of affairs di rectly the present heavy movement in a meas ure subsides. As we have already submitted In a previous Issue, the American crop, estimated by us at 40.000.0CO bushels over the other highest forecast, viz.. C50.000.000 bushel3. will' only furnish 200.000.000 bushels (25.000.0CO quarters) for exportation, even If stocks aro drawn down at the end of this season to th9 low level to which they sank at the end of last scaion. and seeing from recent custom-house returns and other Indications that. the world's requirements will amount to at least 55.000,000 quarters, and perhaps 2.000,000 quarters more, it Is evident that countries other than America, will be called upon to contribute very liberally, to the extent say of 31.000.000 to 33.000,000 quarters, and as India and tho Southern Hemi sphere will be out of the running for half tho season, there remain only Southeastern Europe and Canada to fill tho gap, barring the 3.000,000 quarters, which North Africa and certain smaller countries should ship. A semi-official Russian crop report makes Its wheat crop 4S6.4OO.O0O bushels, against 426 400,000 bushels last, year; 172.000,000 bushels of rye. agajnst 091.000.000 bushels last vear; 704 -000.000 bushels .of foats. against. 528.000.000. FLOUR. FEED. ETC. The flour business Is going ahead remarkably well, and the demand is In excess of the supply. In fact, orders are piling up. owing to the shortage of transporta tion facilities and the Inability of the mills to grind -fast enough. The demand Is prin cipally from the Orient, and the cargo capacity of the Pacific steamers Is taken as far ahead as the end of November. No changes have oc curred In prices since the last report. Oats arc steady at former quotations, with offerings less numerous than heretofore. Tho barley situation Is unchanged. Feedstuffs are in good demand, and prices are firm. HOPS The situation in the hop market has undergono a change. At the opening of the searon the business was In tho hands of deal ers, with growers holding baclc Now it is the growers who are In the market pressing trans actions, and buyers" have assumed the waiting attitude. Nevertheless there is a great deal ot activity, but at prices not -jo firm. A large sale was made at Laurel yesterday of 250 bales, also Clatsop .County hops Just arrived in the market, and several lots at Woodburn, a total of probably 1000 bales, all from 21c to 22c Exporters are not In the market, declar ing prices to be too high, and until London be comes a buyer it Is not likely that any ad vance will be recorded. New York advices to a Portland dealer yes terday said: "Brewers show n disposition to buy. Unless England comes Into the market soon. Coast growers will want to sell, and we expect to see the price at 1820c. The fact that England Is able to fill most of her re quirements on the Continent at lower figures than are asked for Americans must have an Influence adverse to a further advance." Tho New York Journal of Commerce of Octo ber 2 says: The feature was the receipt of cable advices from Nuremberg. Germany, reporting an active and excited market at an additional advance in prices of 5 marks. Reflecting the stronger ad vices from Germany, local dealers were quoins, higher prices for German hops, and S6c was named as an Inside quotation. On the following date, the same paper said: Business In the local market continued quiet, but there was no pressure to sell, and prices were firmly maintained. German cable advices continued to report a firm market, but business for the day In the Nuremberg market was in terrupted to a considerable extent by the Jew ish holiday.. London cable advices reported a firm, but quiet market. Advices from the Coast showed that some growers In Oregon were showing more of a disposition to meet the bids of dealers, which ranged from 21c for prime up to 23c for choice. The prlco named by growers of Sonoma and Taklma hops ranged from 23 Vic to 25c, but at these prices there were few buyers. Sacramentos were quoted at from 20 Vic to 21V-C . Reports from up the state reported the market firm, with choice grades at 30c; Inferior grades were selling below this figure, and a sale was v reported of about 65 bales at 26c. Tho Otsego Republican of October 1 says of bops: The local market does not start up yet. Growers are not ready to sell. Wo learn of two sales In Sprlnsfleld at 30c The Watervllle Times of September 30 says: Growers who have choice bops are firm, and are holding for better than 30c. at least offers at that figure do not tempt many of them. Still there are sales made every day at 2SS30c A 50-bale lot grown on Daniel Conger's farm brought 30c last weekr and Thomas Lally sold his half of the growth on the Hanover farm at 30c Other smaller lots have brought 2830c There are many good-grade hops In this local ity, which will command the highest price whenever they are In the market. Tho Journal of the 3d quoted Pacific Coast hops In the New York market: 1902, 2429c per pound; 1001, choice. 25g26Vic: do medium to prime. 2324c: 1900. 1921c; olds. 8312&C. WOOL Oregon wools figured extensively In the big transactions that recently took place at Boston. It Is estimated that from 20.000,000 to 30.000,000 pounds of wool were taken Tip "by manufacturers, and of this amount some 7.000. 000 pounds were of Oregon production. Says the American -Wool and Cotton Reporter of Oc tober 2: Oregon wools, as before pointed out, have been active. It Is estimated that the sales aggregate In the neighborhood of 7,000,000 pounds, comprising some choice staple wools, which brought as high as 55c clean, while those of shorter Btaple were taken at about 50c clean. Tho American Woolen Company has been the chief purchaser of these wools, and Is reported to have taken 6000 bales of one house. In tho grease the prices are reported to have ranged from lCc to 18c. Quite an amount of wool, taken at 1614017c, cost about 02c clean. Such purchase's as these have greatly depleted, of course, tho supply of Oregon wools In this market. California wools are selling moderately right along at unchanged prices. The tone of the market Is firm, and the Fall wools in Califor nia are commanding full prices. Sales are re ported there at ll12c. It Is estimated that some ot these wools will cost 43c. clean, landed. The cholco northern wools In this market have sold at 525153c crean. Middle county "wools have brought 4CS48c The Reporter quotes Oregon '"wools at sea board markets as follows: Eastern staple, 17 18c; Eastern Oregon, choice clothing, 1415c; do average. 13Jfl4c:. do heavy, ll12c: Valley i Oregon, No. 1, 1920c: do No. 2, 19??20c; do No. 3, 1819c: do lambs.'l617c FRUIT AND FARM PRODUCE Fruit deal ers saw several good and several bad days dur ing the week. The demand, as was to be ex pected, was Influenced somewhat by the weath er. Yesterday there was considerable activity, and large receipts were worked off at steady prices. The steamer brought In a large lot of California produce, especially grapes, some of which were not .In good condition. Peaches nre In large supply for the season, and apples . are plentiful. The demand for melons Is about exhausted. Prunes continue at unchanged prices and firm on the light Northwestern supply and the shortage In France. As to tho latter .factor. Jobbers say It should not have much effect on the Oregonjinarket, as Frenchmen want French prunes, whereas, Italians are principally rataed In this state. In tho New York market prunes continue firm on the spot, and a good Jobbing demand Is reported at full figures. Occasion ally, sales of small dzes are reported at the 254c four-size basis for Santa Claras, October shipment, on 70-OOs. Oregon futures are In ood request, with .a 3c four-size basis quoted on 20-40s. Green produce Is In demand at former prices. Yesterday's receipts Included a car of sweet potatoes and a full supply of tomatoes. Chickens, after a dull week, are moving bet ter, the lower quotations $ having stimulated the demand. Prices have been too high of late, and the local supply piled up. As quotations have now settled down to a reasonable basis, a better movement is looked for. Fresh ranch egg3 have been ecarce for a long time, and yesterday some of tho trade advanced tho price to 27c The supply of storage and Eastern eggs is good, which will probably pre vent any further Increase In tho price for Ore gon. Cheese and the best grades of butter are flrm'ns previously quoted GROCERIES, MEATS, " ETC The principal activity In groceries again this week lias been In beans, two distinct advances being recorded. Rice Is firm, sugar steady and tho future of tho coffee market uncertain because of manip ulation In New York. Coal oil advanced during tho week. Live and dressed meats, as good stock is not plentiful, have been generally firm. Lard Is weaK ana lower. -Bacon Is firm and higher and dry salt sides have made a great Jump, as there Is practically none on the market. It may be two weeks yet before tho supply and price again become normal. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain. Floor. Feed. Etc. WHEAT Walla Walla, 63c;- bluestem, C5VSc: Valley, 64c per bushel, export value.

BbbIh Show Xo Disposition to Ex tend. Credit to Exchange Custom ers Coal Strike nsHors. NEW YORK. Oct. a There was decided re lief today of the pressure of credit contraction by the banks and the result was a sharp recov ery In the prices of stocks. The demana to cover short contracts by the bears was a con siderable factor, as the recent heavy declines have made operators on that side of the mar ket bold and quite active. There was some show of enthusiasm In the early buying, and considerable gains were established. The en thusiasm, however, did not last the day out, and the bears regained some confidence and ceased their efforts to cover. Some points of strength persisted to tho last, notably union Pacific, but the market generally became some what apathetic and closing prices were gener ally btlow the best. A stiffening In the money rate late m tne aay to 15 per cent and a heavy selling movement In Amalgamated Copper helped to unsettle the late deallnrs. The weakness of Amalgamated is due to the decline in the price of copper, both In New York and In London. The considerable strengthening of the posi tion of the banks as a result of the. week's liquidation, and several developments today tending to renlenlBh their cash resources gave rise to the query whether the corner had been turned In a money stringency so that some. confidence might be felt that forced liquidation of stocks had com to an end. The earlier view was that this might be hoped for with some confidence, but the wavering course of prices later In the day showed that this opinion was shaken. The banks showed no disposition to deviate from their recent determination not. to extend credits to stock-market customers lor the nresent. The $3,000,000 of Australian gold at San. Francisco was made payable at the Subtreasury here today. Large requirements for the payment of -New York taxes have been met, and are returning to tho channels of tho market. Reassuring reports of the health of Kusseii Bae were a auletlng influence In the money market. Foreign exchange continued Its down ward course, and Immediate loan bills were sold In that market. But there was some Duying hftr tnrtfiv for Tendon account. Which helped to weaken exchange. Thore were some hopeful expressions current over the coal strike ouuook today, which helped sustain the market.. The bond market was Irregular. Total sales, par value. $3,665,000.

Corn opened easier, influence by lower cables, good weather throughout the West, and the prospect of a record-breaking crop In Missouri.
