THE MOBKING OREGONIAff, FEIDAY, JULY 3, 1903. 13 iT THE TOP NOTCH Potato Market Takes a Sud den Jump. STRONG CALIFORNIA DEMAND Oregon BsrbaBkit Wanted in the Sovfh far Seed Sarar Beet In dustry Local Produce Qae- tatioas. . The potato market "has jtaken a apart lately and is now up at top notch. Fancy Burbanks are jiuoted at $1 and many dealers find It Impossible to ;ct enough to supply the de mand. The excitement Is occasioned by the strong Inquiry at Ban Francisco for Burbanks Tor seed purposes. Shippers believe that the demand there will soon he .satisfied and think that the shipment of 8000 sacks that -went out on the last steamer may break the market. A considerable Quantity of potatoes remains in the country yet, but no largo lots are visible. It is unusual for California to call for seed potatoes at this time of year, and the fact Is explained by the high prices now ruling: for sew potatoes in the San Francisco market. These hare advanced to 1 cents under a strong shipping demand from the flooded dis tricts in Kansas, and this fancy- figure has Induced many farmers who years ago cut out potatoes to go into the business again. Plant ing is heavy In Petaluma and other districts that have not raised more than enough for home consumption for a long time past. The result is not going to be very Ed for this state. "While there is a temporary gain, there Is likely to be a big loss in the end, as an overabundant supply In California will dose that market to Oregon producers. An other effect of the present advance will cause farmers to hold their potatoes next Fall In the expectation that the tall end of the season will be best. 'Besides the Oregon potatoes now .going to California, some car-lot shipments are being made to Arlrona and Texas. New potatoes are beginning to come in slowly from early districts in this state. They are quoted at lc a pound. , BEET-SUGAR INDUSTRY. Increase In Xnmbcr of Factories In the United States. The acreage of sowings of the new American beet crop and tho corresponding possible yield of sugar are receiving considerable atten tion just at present. Last season there were 44 factories in operation in the various states, while this crop season the number of active factories will reach 65. The following esti mate has been made showing the sowings In acres, with the possible yield of sugar in tons of 2240 pounds each. It should, of course, be remembered that weather conditions during the growing season may be such as to alter the prospects materially.

Manager Wlnstanley Says It Is Not Due to Worms. SALEM, Or., July 2. (Special.) After in vestigating the Eubject thoroughly. Manager "Winstanley, of the Oregon Hopgrowers' Asso ciation, has abandoned the theory that the missing hills In Willamette Valley hopyards are causes. d- me ravages or a worm which attacks the Toots. He is rather of the opinion that the roots were Injured chiefly by adverse weather conditions, and were afterward at- tacKea Dy the worms. He says that an investi gation of the conditions In various yards ex- ptpaeu me tneory mat the worms caused the Injury in the first Instance. Speaking on this subject today, he said: "The cause of weakness and death in hop roots is the alternate warm and cold weather through the Winter and early Spring. The hop vine in Oregon is a rank grower. The first warm day or two that occurs after the leaves have fallen and the vines are deadwill cause the sap to flow, and small shoots ap pear. Even as early as Christmas evidences of life are sometimes seen; then comes a cold spell or rain or frost, which chills the sap. which recedes to the roots, and the smalt sprout, Is killed. This occurs when the root has the smallest amount of -vitality, and by constant repetition the root dies, turns brown, and worms find food In the hill. The proof of this is seen in the fact that most of the missing hills occur In rich, warm land. Where yards are shaded by timber, so that the sun docs not strike them during the warm days, or where the land is cold and late, the vines have done welL Another Source of destruction to the "hop root is tho Winter or early Spring pruning. At this time the roots are almost dormant. The flow of sap is weak, and the root is robbed of most of Its life by cutting xff the lateral roots. Later, when the vines are trained on the strings or wires, and the sap is flowing in response tb the warm sun shine, we can afford to cut' and slash large quantities of sprouts and roots, and the vino thrives all the more, and produces more and better hops. This, in my opinion, is the prime cause of weak and missing hills." War In Spirits Trade. The greatest war ever known In the spirits trade Is likely to be inaugurated soon. For pome time trouble has been brewing In the United States Spirits Association. The West ern members have objected strenuously to cer tain restrictions placed on tho trade by the Eastern contingent. This clash resulted In a determination on the part of Western distrib uters to break away and form a new associa tion. Final details were completed for the formation of this new combination. It will be known as the Commercial Distilling Com pany, of Terre Haute, Ind. The capitalization will he $400,000. The new company has signed a $100,000 contract for machinery equip ment of a new distillery to bo erected at Terre Haute. Those who are Interested In the new comnanv fleny that there will be anv wnr nt Started, and declare that the new. combination simply desired to have a plant of their own and be able to run independent of the Eastern people. On the other hand, those who are sM members of the United States Spirits Association state that the' formation of this new company means that a wr will be In augurated and fought to the finish. Tbecs gentlemen expect prices to be cut lower than they have been for some, time past. It is, ac cording to their estimation, to be a fight for supremacy between the United States Splritr Association and the new independent company. California Fru.lt Coaahlaaties. It -was announced soma time ago that an organization was being perfected"' to enable the representatives of the Southern California Fruit Exchange to handle deciduous as well as other fruits. Information comes from California that this organization has been formed. - The Southern California Fruit Exchange and the California Fruit Distributors have Joined forces, and the combination now controls 80 per cent of the fresh fruit of California. Fur ther, than this, the distributors will wort with j the California Fruit Agency, the citrus coro- .blne, and In most cities the latters agents will handle both citrus and deciduous fruits, thus centralizing the control of California fruits. Maple Sagar Crop. In an Interview, a representative of the George C. Cary Company, of St. Johnsbury, Vermont's leading maple sugar dealers, gave the following statement concerning this year's crop; As Is usually the case, the maple sugar crop this year Is proing larger than at first esti mated. The production In 1002 probably ave raged two and one-half pounds to the tree, the largest average In several years. In many sec tions this year the flow of sap was light, but in others it was nearly as great as in 1002. so the average is fully one and one-half pounds to the tree. "While this Is only five-ninths of the amount made last year, it compares fa vorably with other seasons. There was very little fancy sugar made, most of It being very dark colored and of comparatively poor qual ity. High prices have ruled thus far, the farmers receiving 9 cents a pound. This has been due to large demands from the users, who feared there was not enough to go around. In Canada, however, the sugar crop has been very large, about three pounds to the tree. Canned Pineapples Scarce. Private advices from Singapore state that stocks of canned pineapple there are exhausted owing to the short crop. The next season opens In November, and the advices state higher prices -are anticipated between, now and tho new season. On the- spot new Singapore sliced pineapple is reported as moving freel. Packers are said to be studying the needs of the American market more carefully and more attention is being paid to the quality and grade. PORTLAND MARKETS.

Only a Small Trade in Wheat at Chi cago CHICAGO, July 2. There was only a small trade in wheat, owing to the fact that the Board will be closed until Monday, and the general sentiment was rather bearish: Open ing prices were weak on heavy rains In tho Red River Valley and on the break of blind pool at St. Louis, September being U3c to 6c lower at 75$75Kc Commission bouses were good buyers at the decline and with only light liquidation, the market advanced moderately the first hour, September selling up to 75c afUr which prices held corparatlvely steady until the closing hour. A renewal of the selling pressure caused weakness late in the day, and the close was at the bottom, with Sep tember 0c lower at 74?ic Corn was rather unsettled, with huslnes mostly local and of an evenlng-up character. The market again' declined late In the ses sion along with wheat, and September closed He lower at 49c Oats were extremely dull and prices kept within a narrow range. The close was steady with September a shade higher at 33&33c Provisions opened weak, but with fair bovlnj; by packers a firm tone developed and the close was near the top prices of the day.

It is expected that this will show the effects of the large operations Incident to the beginning ot the fiscal year, as was the case with re turns of the Bank Of England and the Bank of France, which were made today. Both Insti tutions showed a declines in reserve, the Eng lish bank of rearlr 2,000.000, and the French bank a slightly smaller amount, and both institutions showed an enormous expansion of credits. But the process of repayment of these extended accommodations was proceeding both In Paris and London. In New York the max imum call loan rate today was -4 per cent. compared with 6 per cent yesterdaj? and 10 per cent Tuesday. A bank statement unfavor able on it face is not likely, therefore, to bo a factor In the speculation. The easy money market failed to help the Btock market. There was no urgent pressure to sell, but the buying demand was almost Imperceptible and prices sarged heavily throughout the ses sion. The approach ot the holiday was a posi tive influence on the dullness and especially as many members are preparing to leave town tonight until next week. It will be difficult to hit upon any of the factors as the dominant cause of the weakness, but sentiment in spec ulative securities over the future of values is undoubtedly discouraged. London reported some selling of Americans on fears of a dis turbance of our relations with the Russian Government, butt there was no trace of this feetlng In Now York. Reports ot plans of reorganization for additional Industrial com binations and the terms proposed created a dis tinctly bad impression, although the securi ties effected are not dealt in on the Stock- Exchange. The weekly review of the Iron trade, the favorable news from the crop region and the day's reports of railroad earnings. Including the Pennsylvania decrease for May, effected no aticistance In advancing prices. In the bond market some of the older Issues tended downward. The semi-annual interest of 1 per cent came off the New York Central general mortgage 3s, and they sold at par for the first time In their history. Tho Issue of this refunding mortgage late in 1S95 was re garded as the opening of a new era In our financial history and was one of the notable events heralding the following" period of pros perity. In ISfO they sold as high as 113H. and last year as high as 109. They sold earlier this year at 101, which was the pre vious low record. Total sales ot bonds, par value, $1,725,000.
