19 TIIE MORNING OREGOXTAN. FRIDAY. JUNE 19, 1908. DUTY 15 HOT LIKELY English View of Proposed Hop Protection. COMMITTEE STILL SITS Kentish observer Declares Growers Can Get No Relief Until Unionists Get Back to Power Active Trade in Fruits. At this distance it is impossible to say what action will be taken by the British Ifovernment in the matter of the proposed 40s duty on American and other imported hops, but Judging from the .comment of the English papers there is not much prospect of the growers getting the desired relief, which, while it might help them materially, would give a body blow to the hop industry of Oregon. The Kentish Observer, published In the heart of England's principal hop producing section, sa.ya editorially: It is said to be "understood on excellent authority" that while the majority of the eelect committee on the hop industry, being pledged to free trade, cannot see their way to recommending an import duty on foreign hops, there is a general feeling in favor of legislation compelling the foreigner to mark his hops, and also against the nee of hop substitutes and suDnlements. We of this I Journal have never expected that the com mittee would support the demand for a auty It would be hardly likely that anything In the nature of protection even for such a special and limited industry as hopgrowing would be conceded by Radicals steeped to the lips in Co bd en ism. Whether the two re forms' which the committee Is said to be favoring would be of much help to the in dustry remains to be seen. The marking act ought certainly to be extended to foreign hops, and the use of snbstitutes for hops in brewing should be regulated by" law, though we question very much whether a pure ber bill would be of any great advantage to the growers. As we have so often declared, only an Import duty could restore prosperity to the industry, and this will never come until the Unionists get back to power. The Parliamentary select committee con tinues to hold sittings at Iondon and will probably sit all Summer. At one of Its recent sessions, the star witness was John Gretton, a member of the Bass firm. Mr. Gretton is also a member of the commit tee. He said that It was necessary for his firm to purchase only the best material and with them price was a secondary considera tion. The qualltv of the English hop 'was slowly but steadily deteriorating. Year by year they found it more difficult to buy fine Knglish hops.. The reason for the deteriora tion, in his opinion, was the method of cul tivation in order to produce a large crop, which had resulted in overforcing the plant. He agreed that there was a decreased de mand for hops used in brewing, and thought It would be a good thing for the hopgrow ers, the brewers and the public if the use of substitutes was prohibited. If the price of hops were increased owing to a duty of 4s, the cost per barrel of beer to the brewer would be increased 7,d or 8d. rIn the case of Bass the extra cost would be Is 3d per barrel. G. Bird, hop factor, attributed the depres sion In the hop industry mainly to over production, although he pointed out that there was also a smaller demand, owing td Improved methods of brewing. He regarded a 4Mi duty as likely to be only a temporary 1 0 palliative. FRESH FRUITS ARK IX DEMAND. New Apples and Fre Peaches Anions; the Latest Offerings. TheYe was an active demand for all kinds of fresh fruits yesterday and prices were well maintained throughout the list. The day's arrivals included a car of canta loupes and a mixed car of peaches and plums. The first new apples of the season were received from California and" were quoted at $2 per box. A small shipment of Triumph freestone peaches was also re ceived and brought $1,40 per box. The strawberry market ruled firm all day. At the morning market sales were at $1.201.65 per crate and price quoted on the street were $1.401.75. Practically everything cleaned up. Some of the offer ings showed the effect of the rain, but gen erally the berries were in fine condition. A, shipment of Mercd tomatoes was re ceived and brought $1.22 per box. Coach ella and Brawley tomatoes are quoted, at $2.25 per crate. IMPROVEMENT IX THE HIDE MARKET i'rioem Have Not Been Materially Advanced, but Feelins Is Better. There is considerable Improvement noticed in the hide market. Prices have not been . materially advanced, but there Is a better feeling all around. The Eastern demand Is steadily enlarging and the effect is shown In the stronger markets on this Coast. Ad vices Xrom Chicago under date of June 13, follow: The domestic hide market continues strong, although the Increase in receipts of cattle during the first part of the present week has led tanners to believe that prices on packer hides will not advance any further, and they are holding out of the market as a rule at the increased rates that are named by the packers. Tanners of late have been operating more heavily In foreign hides, -which they have been able to secure to good advantage, even after paying the duty. Reports - are current that total salee of wet salted River Plate hides to one tanner aggregate 0,000. Chicago packers are asking high prices for late salting hides, and are holding native Bteers at lMVfec, heavy Texas at lftc, butt brands and Colo rados at 12c, branded cows at 10c and heavy native cows at 10c. About 50,000 were sold at these advanced prices. Country hides have shown more activity during the paet week, and prices have stiffened up on these somewhat. The receipts of common varieties of Latin-American dry hides con tinue small and the market is firm on those at the last, advance of hie. BEST WOOI.

HAY PRICES ARE EASING OFF. Large Crop of Cheat Wilt Have a Tendency to Keep All Values Down. Hay prices are easing off as the time for the marketing of the new crop approaches. Dealers expect new hay to open at quota tions materially less than those now cur rent. There will be a big crop of cheat this year, and as this always ranges around $10. It will have a tendency to keep prices on timothy down. Last season there was hardly any cheat marketed, the crop having been frozen out. There Is only a nominal local demand for oats and barley and these markets are weak. Trading in the wheat market has become very quiet since the California demand fell off. Country Produce Trade Drags. There was not much life in the country produce market. Receipts of poultry were large and as the demand was small, prices were weak all around. Eggs drag along at the previous quotation. Butter continues firm without change in price. The cheese market is inclined to be weak. Bank Clearing.

JET CHANGE SMALL Stock Trading and Price Move ment Narrow. IN PROFESSIONAL HANDS Bulletins FVom Chicago Convention Made Basis of Operations Bet ter Crop Reports Have Some Influence. NEW YORK. Juno 1R. The narrow re striction of the price movement continued to be the feature of the stock market to day. Yesterday's downward tendency was not far extended before the movement turned and prices hardened again. Dealings were so Insignificant in volume that the fact in Itself deprived the movement of im portance. Professional operations of the smaller sort apparently made up the whole market Bulletins from the Republican convention were made the bf.sls of some of the oper ations of this kind. The adding of some quaiirying pnrases to the antl-lnjunction plank of the platform, as first- presented to the committee, and the Inclusion of a pro testation of party devotion to the authority and integrity of the Judiciary were hailed as an evidence of control over radicalism. Opinion over the wheat crop prospects also had an Influence in the recovery of prices from the early depression. Immedi ate weather news indicated a passing of the conditions from which damage has been feared. The views of the steel trade Journals on the eATects of the cut in prices of pro ducts were not hopeful, and another decline In the price of copper metal In London was reported. The metal stocks, however, were prominent in the late recovery of prices. The money market here continued easy. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,855,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. Hfeh. Low. Rid.
