13 THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 1908. OUTS ARE HIGHER Strong Demand Coming California. From BARLEY MARKET FIRM Opening of the Hop Markft Expect- ed Dally Active Inquiry for Fresh Frnlts Dairy Pro dace Is Firmer. Ther la a good California demand for oat which I keeping price up firmly. Tn local consumption demand 1 alio good and la likely to Increase, as the season progresses and railroad development work start. What has given most strength to the market Is the fact that practlcallr no oats of the old ercp wera carried over, whereas a fair sur plus was confidently expected. Buyers have therefore been compelled to depend almost mli-elv on offerings of new oata Prices quoted yesterday were $2S.80e:9 per toir for No. 1 white and I27.Oi2S for gray. At the Board of Trade the feeling wa de cidedly strong, bid showing an advance of ZH cent over Saturday" close. Barley Is also firm but rather Quiet, a offering are light. There was a weaker tendency In the wheat market at the Board of Trade. The beet offer for December wheat waa S3, with C3a asked .Receipt for the day were 120 cars wheat, B car and 00 sacks oats. 72 car barley. 30 aacks flour and 18 cars and 1T3 bales bay.

Hop-plcklng Is In full swing In all parts of Oregon today. The weather could not be better for the harvest and the few samples that have already come In show almost per fect quality. Whatever may be the quantity raised it is a certainty that the Oregon crop of 190S will be superior In quality. In a few yards where picking began early in the week some progress has been made In baling. The opening of the market may be looked to. any day now. There were no reports of business In this state yesterday, but between 500 and 6uO bales were sold in Washington at 6i and T cent. In Its Issue of August 27 ths Kentish Ob server, said of tbe Br.gllth crop: The condition of the hop crop la hardly so favorable a a week ago. The low temi-rarure that prevailed all lent week encouraged the mould, which In some grounds has become serious. Added to this is the damage caused by the boisterous winds of the last few days, the hops In exposed plantations being bruised, an I branches broken ofT. There Is little doubt that the general qualMy will not be so nni frmly good as at one time seemed probable, thoueh on the whole It will be a much better quality crop than has been grown for some years pset Indeed, the bulk of the Bramllng and Fueaie are better grown out nd richer In condition than for the last ten or twelve erasons. in regard to the quantity, we eon eider a fair estimate to be 14 cots. pr acre, h!rh. on an estimated acreage of 3S.0O0 acres, would be 632.000 cwts. The Observer print a letter from tha sec retaries of th Worcestershire and Hereford shire associations, representing a quarter of the total acreage of England, that the crop In those districts cannot exceed 9 cwt. per acre. LOCAL BCTTEB SCPTLY IS LIGHT. Trice at the Moment Are Firm, but Future Is Vnrertaln. Ther Is a difference of opinion in the butter trade aa to the future of the market. Supplies at th present time are light and some of the cannerymen are finding diffl- j culty In ailing their orders. It is feared, however, that any advance In prices would be ill advised at this time, as It could not be maintained. The Seattle market already show sign of weakness and ahould prices ther fall back to 30 cents, the current local quotation of 81 H cents would be shaky. There 1 no abatement of the firmness In th local egg market, which la lightly sup plied with fresh ranch stock, for which there Is a good demand. Poultry receipt fell off yesterday, but th demand waa alio alow. Prlcea wera un changed. Prawn Market Hold Steady. Receipts of peach eontlnu very large, bat the demand la about equal to th sup ply and price show little change. Quota tions yesterday ranged from 35 to T3 cents. Pears were very plentiful and weak at 50 T5 cents. Other fruit held about steady. car of California onlona is due today. There waa an adequate upp:y of all kinds of green truck. Receipts of Produce.

The "talent" that entertains the patrons of Chicago's 400 nickel theaters proposes to strike Monday for increased salaries. About 900 'of this class of "artists" are employed in the city. They have cir culated a petition for signatures agreeing not to work for less than $20 a week, or $33 a week for teams. They are nearly all members of the Actors' Union, but the constitution of that organization forbids the fixing of a wage scale, so the present move is being taken independent of the union.

As the session advanced offerings became more liberal and before the end of the day mere than 6.OO0.000 bushels. It was claimed, had been sold by about a dozen traders.

NEY EXPECTED STOCK VALUES ARE DEPRESSED AS CONSEQUENCE. Transactions Ar at Prices Below Those of the Preceding Day. NDW TORK. Sept. 11. Th action of th. stock market today was a striking te-tlmony to the Important part played by cheap and abundant money supplies In tha movement which has carrlred price to Uieir current high leve'.s. The stiffening of the money mar ket was very moderate In degree and the available supplies remain far from tha point of exhaustion. The Inroads making on that supply establish Its declining tendency, how ever, and speculators today continued to par more for loans on call than for many months preceding. Tbe apprehension that the forces of depletion may cause still higher rates proved a formidable "weight upon speculative sentiment. Estimates ny the accepted authorities of the week's currency movement to and from the interior indicated the turning of the tide away from New York, the excess of ship ments from the city having reached the neighborhood of $2,000,000. Losses on mib Treasury operations, which amount to $2,327, 000, are extended by payments to the Gov ernment of drafts on New Tork correspondents) to pay Internal revenue taxes which make their appearance only when a demand for THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL BANK PORTLAND, OREGON UNITED STATES DEPOSITORY CAPITAL AND SURPLUS, $1,000,000.00 OFFICERS J.

TRAVELER'S CHECKS v Issued for use on the AMERICAN CONTINENT or in any FOREIGN COUNTRY, cashable without charge or identification. cash at Interior points is felt. There has been a marked decline also In the dally average of National bank-notes presented to the sub-Treasury for redemption, which sre features of the season when Interior bank re shipping this form of currency to New Tork. . , Bank-notes of the United states Treasury fund still stand at upwards of $52,000,000 in spite of effort of extra clerical forces to keep up with the sorting; of these bill for return to the taaulng banks. This compares, with a maximum of over 67.000 of these notes 1 the general fund In July, but it also compares with only 110.000,000 in the period before the reflux from th circulation began after the panic. The faot that only about 117,000,000 of th SSO.000,000 bond-secured circulation put out following the panic ha been retired by the issuing banks explains this automatic pressure to get out of circu lation. The rise in call money yesterday was trace able to calling of loans by one of the bank engaged in accumulating exchange for the redemption of New York City revenue bond In London on November 1. There were no reports of actual calling of loans today, but the supply of bank money offering on call is said to be less and this created fears of a definite turning away from great ease in the situation. Various reports were current of the enor mous volume of loans outstanding on call by the bank most closely affiliated with the group of capitalists credited with the con duct of th upward movement of prices dur ing the Summer. The control of the situation ihus centered in a few hands causing un easiness over the possible effect of a change in the market of so powerful a combination. The passing of the dividend on the Ameri can locomotive tock yesterday made the other railroad equipment stocks weak and the Inference from this were not helpful to the Iron and steel group s a whole. Reading got some occasional benefit from the further consideration of yesterday's decision against the validity of the commodities clause of the Hepburn act. While the market was irregu lar at times, the day's business was don below yesterday' prices and the prevailing tone was weak. Bonds were irregular. Total salea, par value, $3,ttoo,00u. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CiXJSINU STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. Bid. Amal Copper .... 2tt.2uo 7tVa 16 7Bi Am Car & Foun. S.lioO u 3sfe 3Vs do preferred 102 Am.
