' THE MORNING OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1903. , IS SUGAR 18 QN All Grades Are Down Twenty Cents a Hundred. CAUSE: REFINERS' COMPETITION Activity of the Locnl Hop Market In creoiCK, With Values Stronger Movement In Citrus Fruits. The sugar market, after remaining stationary for several weeks, has again become the cen ter of interest. All grades of the cane and beet product have been reduced 20c a hundred. As for the cause of the decline the local trade Is In the dark, but It Is presumed to be due to the competition between Spreckels and the British Columbia refinery. In the East the sugar refiners' trust and the outside refiners as well havo announced a change In tho terms of selling refined sugars. The change virtually amounts to the abandon ment of the factor plan, as it puts the reflne sugar market on a net basis. The change will not affect tho net price. It appears that se cret cutting by the rival refiners Is chiefly Te snonslble for tho announcement of the new plan. About 10 days ago the Arbuckles, It Is understood, discovered that tho American Sugar Refining Company was secretly making a special rebate of 5 points to some buyers. Arbuckles Immediately following this out to the same favored buyers, and the discount did not then take long in becoming general. The factor plan has for some time been a dead-letter In the "West, but It has been main tained fairly -well In New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New England. In those sec tions it is being, so far as" refiners are In formed, maintained without break, and is a source of direct profit In the wholesale grocery business, which will not. It Is believed, allow It to stop without protest. The terms under which the refiners have been selling to New York. New Jersey and New England Include iMcount of 15 points from list prices and an additional 1 per cent for cash in seven days, in addition to the special discount of 5 points after 00 days for those who In selling maintain refiners prices. In all sections, ex cept those specifically noted, however, this last 5-polnt discount is now" deducted from the till, and within the last two weeks another special discount of 5 points has been openly Allowed. MORE BUSINESS IX HOPS. Prices Strong on Buying Orders from Brewers. The hop market is active at 2525Uc and It is reported that 25Uc has been offered for one lot. Brewers are beginning to senl in their orders freely. It Is believed that the market will "be lively for the next month or longer. Tacoma advices say the hop market there Is decidedly stronger since the first of the new year and prices have taken a hitch up of lc per pound. The choice exporters are now sell ing at 25Hc per pound, or within c of the top prlco of the season. It Is said the adance in price Is due to Inquiries from Eastern brewers, who havo not yet purchased their year's etock. JVcvr York Hop Mfirfcct. NEW YORK. Jan. 9. (Special.) Hops closed with more firmness among sellers, but no Im portant trading. Wires from up sfcUo report sales of 100 bales of prime at 32c net. Foreign cables not firmness.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9. Special.) A little easiness developed today in small prunes, sizes 70-SOs and 80-DGs ruling weak at 4ic and 3c respectively, under light demand and full sup ply. There Is a -strong tone in 60-70s and 50 COs, with stocks here and near by to arrive con trolled by two holders. On a firm offer, 6c will buy 60s and 5c Is quoted for 60s. Little export movement Is noted at the moment. Jobbers report a steady demand for small lots. A feature today was a considerable buying jnoven I "through brokerage Interests here of Dregorl 5)-60s for shipment from the Coast. One purchase of four carloads is reported, but the terms of the sale are withheld. Efforts to purchase 30-40s and 40-5.0s on a 3c f. o. b. basis were reported declined by Coast holders. Pink salmon are easy and dull. Lima beans are unchanged. Heavy" Shipments of CItrns Fruit. Advices from Los Angeles, under -date of January 5, say that, according to past Indica tions, there will be considerable more citrus fruit shipped out of Southern California this year than last. The lemon crop Js lighter, but the shortage will bo more than offset by tho additional output of oranges. Growers say oranges are not only more plentiful this year. but the general run of quality is better.' The ceason has been exceptionally favorable for good orange growing, and there have been no serious frosts to damage the crop. The picking la now well under way, but the growers are not hurrying, as here Is no immediate demand for the goods in the Eastern market. Up to last iveek about 1800 carloads of oranges had been chipped East from Los Angeles and vicinity &nd 3200 carloads from points north of Tebacha pL The season's output from Southern Cali fornia is expected to be from 22,000 to 24.000 carloads. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain, 'lour. Feed. Etc. The "wheat market is extremely dull, and nei ther growers nor shippers show any desire to do business. Values are nominally unchanged. Eastern and cable advices yesterday reported a better tone. While Liverpool was dull, with a slow -6pot demand, prices closed from $4c higher.

BEST IN FIVE MONTHS DEALING IN STOCKS REACHES . GREAT VOLUME. Closing Is Firm ' and Active at a Rally From the Lovr PointBank Statement Forecast. NEW YORK. Jan. 9. More business -was transacted today on the Stock Exchange than at any date since the semi-panic conditions of tho middle of December last. Although the market became extremely Irregular and at one time generally reactionary, there was a free, broad market during the whole day. and tho closing was Arm and active at a rally from the low point. The report of the details of the arrangements of the control of the Reading between the Pennsylvania and the Vanderbllt interests caused the speculative imagination to catch Are, and operations were hastily resumed, seemingly on the assumption that all the recent Ills resulting from an over-surplus of new se curities and an inadequate supply of capital to take them up had been cleared away. The conclusion was arrived at by inference that further projects would be pushed for the har monizing of control of the whole Eastern trunk line railroad and anthracite field, with subsequent designs upon the soft-coal field through the medium of the distribution of con trol of Hocking Valley among the same In terests that are to share the Reading control. There seemed to be an Impression that this would herald an assumption of a large number of projects of consolidation and merger, which were Interrupted by tho stringency In the money market. The prospect that this would multiply new securities again and involve heavy syndicate requirements seemed to have none of the re cent terrors, and new buying orders were poured into the market this morning from every quarter, including some by cable from London. It was obvious from the start that this demand was liberally fed by sales to take profits by the large buyers of yesterday and the preceding day, but the buying was suffi cient to absorb this realizing for a time and to Inifjatc fresh advances here and there. Re ports that the dispute between the Pennsylva nia and Gould Interests had been settled caused buoyancy In the Wabashes. There were subse quent demonstrations of strength In other Gould stocks, notably Missouri Pacific and Manhattan, which Initiated movements re spectively in the Pacifies and the local trac tions, and which were not explained by any news of the day. Money continued quite easy, in spite of tho heavy new demands resulting from speculation and a strong bank statement was forecasted, both by the large movement of currency from the interior and by the gain in Subtreasury operations resulting from the payments of Gov ernment Interest and the transfers of currency from San Francisco. Late In the day. when the market had become reactionary, a belief gained currency that large imports of gold were In contemplation at an early day. Tha rising money market in London, the sharp rise in sterling at Paris, and the Indications that tho Bank of England is disposed to main tain the open market rate of discounts were adduced as evidence ot the likelihood of such a movement at an early date. A more reason able explanation of the reaction, aside from the natural profit-taking, was the persistent and heavy liquidation in Reading, due to the fears of holders that as a minority interest they would have little to hope for in the new position of tho stock. The market was sup ported at the decline, and the closing was firm at the rally. The bond market waB broad but Irregular. Total salcfl, par value, $3,760,000. New York Stock Market. STOCKS.

Reports of unsettled weather In Anrentlna, firm cables and small receipts caused a little strength In the wheat pit early In the day, but under the Influence of better prices, offerlnffs became quite liberal, and a reaction followed. May selling down to 75Hc, after opening unchanged to 4c lower, at 75T45I7CC. At the decline, the market ruled rather dull, though there was a fair demand from commission houses nnd scalpers. An In crease of 1,500,000 bushels In the exports for the week, compared with the corresponding week last year, caused renewed buying late In the day, and the close was strong, with May Uo higher, at 70Ue. the high point of the day. Corn ruled easier the greater part of the day on liberal offerings from locals, while tho demand was only limited. May closed a shade higher, at 4344c There was a pause In the advance In oats. and reactions occurred on profit-taking by small longs and tho lack of adequate support by bulls.

NEW YEAR STARTS WELL ACTIVITY REIGNS AMONG ALL THE " INDUSTRIES. Only Deterrent Features Are tie Scarcity of Cnrs and of Fuel Financial Position. Strong. NEW YORK. Jan. 9. Bradstreefs tomorrow will say: The new year starts aggressively and well. Wholesale distributive trade, It Is true, notes something of the lull usual at this period of he year, but even here the uniformity Is broken by advices that salesmen already on the road aro receiving good orders for Spring, and that. In compliance with urgent instruc tions, shipments of Spring goods are being for warded liberally. Among the Industries activity reigns, the only deterrent features being the scarcity of cars or of fuel, limiting production of Iron and steel or curtailing shipments of lumber and grain. Prices as a wholo show aggressive strength, present levels being tho highest In over two years. Corn and cotton. It Is true, havo weak ened, but the only apparerit result Is that ot encouraging and expanding export trade, a movement long anxiously awaited. Eastern shoe manufactures report that liberal eample orders are not being followed by solid orders to the extent expected, and shipments are smaller than last year and last week. The scarcity of anthracite coal Is a cause of large expense. Efforts to keep prices down to a reasonable level seem to have failed, and spec ulators are reported In control of the situation. The iron and steel market is classed as quiet, but symptoms of activity are numerous. "Wheat, including flour, -exports for tho week ending January 8 aggregate 5.09S.951 bushels, against 3.436.2C0 last week, 3,507.710 In this week a year ago, and 5,961,095 in 1901.

Dun's weekly review of trade tomorrow will say; Collections are notably prompt at all leading centers, bearing testimony to the strong finan cial position of the Nation's Industries at the opening of the new year. Distribution ot mer chandise Is heavy, and manufacturers are pressed for prompt delivery. Orders for Spring goods come ireeiy, ana in uwu nura iuo -more than a sample business In Fallwelghts. Tardy deliveries In the past lead purchaser! to anticipate requirements more than hereto fore, and orders aro being placed for In ad vance of actual needs. The fuel situation is the one seriously disturbing element, rendering abnormally high the cost of manufacturing and restricting tho purchasing power of almost the entire population. Fortunately, this comes at a time of exceptional prosperity, or there would be a general contraction of consumption in other Jlnes. There is little interruption to work because of labor disputes, but many op erations arejnterrupted by the delay in transit of needed materials. In the Iron and steel industry, the most sig nificant event of the week was the discussion regarding the profit-sharing proposal by the leading1 producer. Inadequate supplies of coke Commission Co. Capital and Surplus, $300,800,00 are still restricting operations. Partially be cause of the published statistics of supplies, but more on account of London speculation, there was a sharp advance In the prices" of tin and copper, followed by some reaction, due ti realising sales. New England producers of wool were busy on Spring orders, and a few deliveries have already been made, although shipments aro light In these lines as yet. Exceptional activ ity In rubber goods has reduced supplies to an unusually low point. Some varieties of leath-, er have advanced slightly, and tanners of hem lock sole havo only limited holdings. No fAfltn.., V. n anncamil In f V m A n. biestlc demand for dry goods. Tho best event as to cottons has been th continued buying ror export, which has exceeded expectations very largely. The print cloth market has ruled very firm, with business restricted by the re- servo of sellers, who show no disposition to make concessions. As to woolen goods, tho demand for overcoatings for next Fall has not come up to expectations, which may be attrib uted, in part, to the fact that the season opened unusually early. Prices aro fully maintained at tne opening level jf the season. Failures for the week number 350 in the united States, against 378 last year, and 24 la -anaaa, compared with 27 a year ago. BRITISH FOREIGN TRADE. Statistics Give Falrlr General Satis faction. NEW YORK. Jan. 9. Statistics of the Brit ish foreign trade in 1002 have given fairly gen eral satisfaction, says a dispatch to the Trib une from London, but the croakers are not sat' lsned that the gains will continue. They assert that two-thirds of the increase in imnorta la wheat, and that one-half of It will be offset this year by an enlarged crop In the United King dom. "While this may Involve a reduction In imports. It may not affect the price, and there is general opinion that there will be no advanci In the chief artiole of food. Higher prices for sugar are again predicted, but the same fore casts were made a year ago and not fulfilled. The government has been fortunate In levying the new duties on grain and sugar under con ditions of supply which have concealed tho taxation from the consumers. ' It Is fully understood here that the peculiar conditions ot the understocked American mar ket explain the gain In pig Iron exports, but neither statisticians nor merchants venture predictions respecting the Iron and steel trade 01 uie unuea Stataes this year. There Is reasunaDie expectation that exnortn of f.l rails and manufactures of Iron to Japan and v.uiou win increase. SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS. Produce Prices Current in the Bay City.
