THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 190S. 17 GRQWER5HQLDFIRM Onion Men See Better Prices Ahead. BUYING AT A STANDSTILL Future or tlio Market Depends on Weather Conditions In the East. New Crop Onions Not a Factor Yet. Onion buylnp has come to a stop in this, territory. On the bal of the San Francisco market, buyer cannot pay over $2.10 and lee a profit, and aa this "sure Is out of question with the growers, nothing Is being done. The 30 odd cars left in Oregon are widely scattered thoughout the onion sec tions and in no case are Individual holdings large. Therefor the growers run little risk In holding and may profit much If circum stances favor them. The presence of Eastern onions on the Coast is the only disturbing factor. The recent rejection of this class of goods has discouraged the movement somewhat and a very slight advance in the Eastern market would check the movement entirely. Such an advance, however, depends largely on weather conditions in that ter ritory. A change to higher temperature would speedily bring it about. If onion prices In the East are raised 10 or 15 cents, and some buyers look for such a change, the markets on this Coast would be at the mercy of the Oregon growers as soon as the present Eastern stocks are ex hausted. The California trade is in a posi tion now to respond readily to such a situa tion, but In the North there are a good many Eastern onions on hand. Seattle has received ten cars, of which two were re jected and It will take some time to work these off. There will be no new California onions on the market before the tmlddle of March. As for Texas Bermudas, advices received yesterday .said It would be March IS or April 1 before they could start shipping to the Pacific Northwest. These new onions will be high in price and will have little effect on the general market. The only thing the Oregon growers have to fear la the Incoming Japanese onions, and what their quality will be on arrjval Is unknown. COAST HOP MARKET STAGNANT. No Demand Now From the East or From Europe. There is no life In the hop market at pres ent. The Eastern demand has almost en tirely ceased and nothing Is doing on ex port account. The best hops left In the state are offering at 5 cents with no takers. The same condition prevails in California where choice 1907s are freely offered at S cents and olds In abundance at Hi cents. In Washington there is absolutely no mar ket, old traders say they never saw a time when things .were so dead. In the meantime the growers are prepar ing to raise another bumper crop. Cultiva tion is under way in many sections. Whether all the hops grown will be picked, however, is another question. Picking money was hard to get last year, and will doubtless be harder to get this year. It la understood the banks will not take hops as collateral, and It remains to be seen whether the farmers will be willing to mortgage their lands to produce what may be an unprofitable crop. Growers are making efforts to contract on a 10-cent basis but find little encouragement. BUTTER FIRMER OS FRONT STREET Several Country Brands Are Advanced. Eggs 8eU Leaver. While some of the city creamerymen are looking for lower prices In the near future. Front street has suddenly taken on a stirrer tone. Several of the best brands of Outside creamery butter, which have been selling at 70 cents, were advanced to 75 cents and another Valley brand was raised from 60 to 70 cents. This advance la due to lighter stocks on the street. Another half-cent drop was noted in the egg market. Some Puget Sound houses, in reply to offers, said they were securing sup plies at San Francisco under the Portland quotations. There was a good Inquiry for chickens and the light receipts were readily disposed of at unchanged prices. Other kinds of poultry .wers In fair demand. RICE MARKETS ARB ADVANCING. Only Three Months' Supply Is Left In the South. From the bet information received by the trade, stocks of rice in the South are sufficient only for three months' consump tion. The mllls are turning; down offers from brokers without exception. Samples coming forward show a steady advance In values, and the mills will not accept offers at less than the Hat. Good grades of Japan seed rk-e in the South are worth 4 cents and Honduras head rice Is also very firm, in fact, all grades show an upward tendency. As the new crop will not be in until No vember, It is evident there will have to bo large Importations from Japan la the mean time. Veoistaiu.es from walla walla Seattle Anxious to Consign Lettuce Ad vance in Celery. Among the vegetable arrivals yesterday ere new spinach and green onions from Walla Walla. The former sold at $1.25 per crate and the latter at 40 cents per dozen. Seattle dealers are anxious to ship or con sign hothouse lettuce here, but the local market is overstocked. Celery is quoted firm at 94.75 for the beat. Another car arrived from tho fcouth yesterday, also a car of sweet potatoes. Ono car of oranges was all tlfe fruit re ceived in the carlot line. Bananas are about cleaned up. Apples are In good supply and sell fairly well. Bank Clearings. Cleurlngs of the Northwestern cities yes terday were as follows: Clearings. Balannes.

SHORTS RUSH TO COVER Decision in Illinois Central Case .Lifts the Harrlmun Issues Cop per Industrials Are Strong. Expect Good Bank Statement. NEW YORK,. Feb. -20. It was only -after considerable hesitation and several false starts that prices moved decisively upwards in today's stock market. The early tone was unsettled and irregular, and there was re newed realizing at the close. Advocates of higher prices seemed to be In dread that some outbreak of special llqui datlon might meet them, as was encount ered yesterday In the Gould stocks and the Interborough Metropolitan bonds, and which mads the upward movement abortive before the end of the day. But no such obstacle in tervened today, and the turn against the short Interest was successfully 1 achieved, the covering demand. Xrotn that element, when it commenced to retreat, aiding ma terially in advancing prices. The approach of a Saturday holiday increased the dispo sition of the bears to reduce their commit ments. The one Item of news of any Importance which might be assumed to offer new con ditions was the decision of the question of the right of the Harriman interests to Vote their holdings of Illinois Central .stock, which was contained In the opinion deliv ered in the Illinois court. The outcome was viewed In the financial district as a method for the settlement of a disputa which has been an unsettling. Influence In other quar ters as much from the fact of being kept open as from any questions at issue in the case. There was but one sale of Illinois Central stock Itself today, and that at a decline of one point from the previous sale. Union Pacific, In contrast, was bought heav ily. Inferences were sought to be drawn of a. bearing of this decision on the right of Union Pacific to receive the Southern Pacific dividends, which the B'ederaf Government authorities seek to enjoin, although the Illi nois Central suit hinges on a state law of Illinois only. The assumption of the large part played by short covering In the advance was cor roborated by the special strength shown by some stocks regarding which developments occurred which have been subjects of ex pressed fears previously Baltimore & Ohio has been weak at various times on reports of new financing. Today's announcement of the sale of $6,000,000 of one-year 5 per cent notes, however, was followed by a vigorous advance in the stock. This road also came forward today ttmong the first with a state ment of net earnings . for January which, while they showed a decrease of $987,S59 -to $1,012,575, compared with last year, were apparently not so poor as the previous pro fessional Belters of the Btock had feared. tocks associated with the copper indus try showed aggressive strength, in propor tion to their recent acute weakness, point ing to the same conclusion of repurchase of stocks by bear operators. This group was affected also by a strong rebound in the London pries of copper, the first Interrup tion to the downward course of that metal which lias occurred In many days. Reports of new arrangements for the selling agency of some of the leading copper interests wers interpreted as indications of the approach ment of those interests to closer relations. Assertions were in circulation, which could not secure official sanction, pointing to an Improvement In- the January net earnings of the United States Steel Corporation over the December showing. The Substance of President's Roosevelt's letter to the Commissioner of Labor, giving Instructions for an investigation ot pro posed wage reductions by railroads, was known yesterday and was ground for some of the short selling of stocks then and added to today's requirements of the shorts. Predictions of a strong weekly bank state ment, which will be given out tomorrow, were made, owing to the apparent gain of between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000 cash by New York on the week's currency move ment. The professionalism of the market was Indicated by the disposition to take profits late In the day. Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value, $3,026,000. United States 2s registered ad vanced , the 2s coupon and the 3s 4. the 4s coupon 4 and the 4s registered 1 Vx per cent on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. . Closing Sales. High. Low. Bid.
