Till! OREGOXIAS. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 11. 1007. 19 L ARE READY TO SELL Some Hopgrowers Seeking the Market ' DEALERS ARE GOOD BUYERS Prices Itule Strong, AVith 10 Cento Paid for Export Quality Sta tist ics of a Tacoma Firm. A eonfrnlcrabl amount of busing developed In the bop market yesterday. Growers were rIi4T to sell than they were la the first part of the week and dealers found less diffi culty in filling' the orders they have been car ry in. Ten cent waa the top price paid. At this figure Kreba Bros, are reported to have , bought two lota at Forest Grove. A 200-bale transaction between dealers was aim closed at 10 cents. A. J. Ray ft Son bought 146 bales from M. H. Parkin, of Galea, at cents, and a 130-bale lot at Sllverton at 84 cejjts. George Uvealey Is reported to have "bought over 200 bales at to 84 cents. O. TV'eld ner ft Co. secured 79 bales from Hearst A Wiley, of Aurora, at 9 cents. George Dorcaa paid 9 centa for an export lot of 120 bales at Mt. Angel. In Washington, Iaaao Plncus ft Sons bought 170 bales from Jim Pert! eld, of Buckley, at 7 cents and McNeff Bros, se- cured the Knox lot of 110 bales at Yakima at 9 cents. In a statement In the Tacoma News, Isaac Plncus ft Sons estimate the total 1907 crop 'of the United States at 298,000 bales as follow: New York. 40,000; California, 87,000; Oregon, .00; Washington, 36,000. Thia firm puts tre crop at a higher figure than any other firm that has yet gone oa record. The state ment says In part: The market opened with the usual demand for a few early shipments and this demand, together with some manipulation, has forced prices up to 9c and 8Hc but owing to a sudden change for the worse In all foreign markets, there has been a reaction on the Pacific Coast and today the market Is quiet. The little derusmd that there la, Lf for export hr "d only the choicest quality will com mand the prices mentioned. On account of the difficulty in Interesting brewers. Eastern dealers will not operate and short sellers are offering hops freely at 10c to 11c, brewery de livery, usual terms. f History lei repeating itself. The large grower-deaIers of the Pacific Coast are advis ing growers to hold their hops, while making every effort to unload their own stock. When the grower gets ready to sell, he will find brewers well stocked with 1907's and will be forced to soli at whatever price Is offered. Holding hops in the past has proved a costly experience, and there Is no reason to believe It will be otherwise thl year. The situation In a nutshell Is that after the three high years of 1W2-3-4, there was a tre mendous Increase In acreage all over the world, and we are now suffering from over production. There Is but one salvation from the standpoint of the grower, an d that Is a heavy reduction In acreage in all hop-growing sections of the world. TJntil this hap pert. brewers will hold the whip hand and get hops at their own price. T. 8. Van Oivdal, of North Yamhill, -write to The Oregonlan as follows: Hops are practically all In the bale in this locality and the shortage is far greater than the lowest estimate made before picking. R. J. Hutchcroft and two other leading growers here have made a house to house canvass and Mnd that there are 1441 bales less of hops than In 1906 within six miles of North Tain hill. In 1906 there were 6011 bales, and In 1107 there are 8570 bales and 289 acres left un picked. J. "W. Beavey. the largest grower of Lane County, has tabulated the crops of that county and find they amount to about 7000 bales. Last year Lane County produced over 000 bales. ' tVHEAT FARMERS SLOWER TO SELL. Most of the Grain Left Now Is 'in Strong Hands. Another advance of a cent took place In lha wheat market yesterday. Selling Is not going on as liberally In the country an has teen the case lately, and the volume of business, therefore. Is not so large. Most pf the weak holders have sold out, and the farmers that still havetheir crops are gen erally in good financial condition to hold cn. The ear situation Is not giving much trouble In the country, but the congestion at the terminal yards here Is worrying some cf the exporters. OREGON KOG9 D1TFF1CTTLT TO OBTAIN, large Receipts of Poultry Present any Im provement in Market. Receipts of country ranch eggs have fal len almost to nothing. The few dealers that have any such stock on hand hold It -firmly at 35 centa Eastern eggs are also Quoted firmer. Arrivals of poultry continue In excess of requirements and the market Is given no chance to Improve. There Is some Inquiry for large hens and young turkeys, but other Inscriptions are not asked for. The butter market was without new fea ture. A very steady feeling prevails, but no Intimation Is given of any coming ad vance in prices. t Fruit Trade Is Slow. Loral grapes continue to be a glut on the market. Hales were made yesterday around l5tf40 cents per crate, but all the arrivals could not be disposed of, even at this I rice. The better varieties of California grapes held thott own but trade was slow. Apples are arriving more freely and soil well Peaches, cantaloupes and melons are In but little demand. Hank Clearings.

TS But Majority cf Stocks Close at Lower Prices. FURTHER URGENT SELLING Housecleanlrig Being Carried On by Commission Houses Prospect of a Severe Strain on tlie - Money 1 Market. NEW YORK. Oct. 10. There was som further urgent liquidation conducted at the ttocK Excnaoge today, wntcn caused vio lent declines in many sections of the list of securities, although at others some show of stability was made, partly because -necessary liquidation In some stocks had already been effected, partly by reason of miytng by uncovered shorts, who had followed the pre ening decline, and partly. It was assumed, by reason of supporting measures placed In the market by friends of various securities. Some violent contrasts in the market were the consequence. ' Industrial stocks, as a group, were very weak, and the movement In some of theru gave cleat evidence of a process or noose cleaning on the part of some commission houses, which had grown weary of carrying stale accounts or were prompted to take In sail and to compel their clients to do bo. It was -reported that In some loans that were maturing severe discrimination was exercised against some of the industrial storks which figured ias collateral. The motives for this cleaning-up process were not indicated by any Immediate news of the day, but the condition of the money market and the prospect of additional strain there were believed to ne oaca ox um action. The fact that call money holds firm near 8 per cent, as it has done since the flrBt of the month, In Itself proves dis couraging to the carrying of quiescent ac counts. An incident was the heavy sell ing of United States Steel preferred, which carried It down to a level where the rate of dividend returned Is no higher than on the common stock. The notaoie reature of the market was the resistance or. some of the stocks which are favorite mediums of the most active speculation and whicA ended the day at substantially higher prices than last night. Bonds were heavy. ioiai saies. jw '" $1,542,000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING. STOCK. QUOTATION a. Sales. High. "oSi" 32 Low. Bid. Adamr. Express Amal. Copper ....73,100 Am.
