Higher Prices and Export In qulry Is Active Tivenlj-FlTe Cents Refused in California. Offers of 23 and Zi cents were made and refused for choice hops yesterday. The market was exceedingly strong and buying was as active as tho firm views of growers permitted. A 'much larger business could have been put through had holders been dis posed to sell more freely. The steady ad vance of the past few days, however, has tightened the growers, and unless the ad vance continues another deadlock Is In sight. The Indications point to an advance and both buyers and sellers look for a 25- eant market here In the next few days. California wires said that 23 cents was offered and refused for the Flnley crop of 1000 bales of 8onomas. Twenty-four cents was freely bid In the Mendocino section. The demand from the East was good and buying limits were higher.' The chief strength of the- market, however, came irora the stronger tone of English advices. McNeff Bros operations were large, their purchases at 22 to 3 cents Including the following Yakima lots: Moxee Hox Com pany, 800 bales; Cobum, 85 bales; Pollack, 274 bales; Dave Harvey, 60 bales; Tom Fear, S3 bales, also 123 bales at Tamplco. Among their Oregon purchases at these prices were 4 SO bales from Kennedy Bros, and the Sweeny lot of 109 bales, both at Woodburn. Klaber, Wolf & Netter also bousht heav ily at 22 to 23 cents, among ' the lots se cured being those of John Parsons, of Hills boro, 10O bales; Raymond Bros., of Forest Orova, 83 bales; J. F. Love, of Forest Grove. 3150 bales, and the Aurora crops of J. -P. Killer. 224 bales; J. C. Momaw, 74 bales, and Scheer & Yergen. 140 bales. H. L. Hart purchased 000 bales at prices ranging up to 23 cents. Louis Lachmund's buying on Sunday and Monday amounted to 80O bales, but the details were not learned. A small lot was reported taken ty a local speculator at 24 cents. Dealers estimated the unsold stock In Ore gon at only 30,000 to 35,000 bales. In Yak ima 5500 bales are In farmers' hands and not over 600O bales are left In Western "Washington. An optimistic view of the future of the market, from a grower's point of view, is taken by a London authority, who writes: "The London hop market is experiencing a crisis unprecedented since the famous season of 1SS2, when hops attained a price never reached before or since. "For several years English hops have been plentiful, but of a poor quality, and the ruling price was so low that all of the weaker growers were driven out of business, leaving only the Independent farmers in the field. This season the crop in England and Austria Is very short, and the market had hardly opened when prices began to oar. In the United States the crop Is plen tiful and good and almost from the open ing of the market the price on the otuer side has been 10 cents lower than here. In spite of the high price, no hops have . been brought to market, and tho surviving growers are enjoying their vengeance to the fullest extent. All of them can hold on as long as they please and with the season two weeks old there are no signs of weakening on their part. The only fcuyers who are happy are those who fore saw the conditions early enough to buy American crops in-advance, some of whom have made fortunes on their dealB. "Other buyers are very pessimistic over the situation and declare that the cheap ness of hops In the United States cannot save the situation long, as the price there is bound to go up as soon as the American growers realize the situation here. Some of the dealers are already predicting that the price will finally surpass the historic level of 1SS2; MILL FEEDS ARE STRONG IX PRICE Market Likely to Advance in Next Thirty Days. The wheat market was quiet at the open- Ing, but tho tone continued firm as a con sequence of last week's buying flurry in the country. Prices were quoted unchanged. Oats and barley were quiet. Millfeeds of all kinds are firm. There Is a good demand, which is taking up all tho surplus, and higher prices are looked for In the next 30 days, unless more export flour business develops. The Oriental,de mand for flour at the moment la slow. I'atent flour prices are unsettled 'by some cutting by country mills. Local receipts.

Pearson, ho has Just re turned from an extended trip through Cali fornia. Mr. Pearson said: ' "There is a good orange crop on the trees In Southern California, but the quality is generally poor and Is running to small sizes. This Is the consequence of the freeze last Winter, followed by the dry Summer. South orn California will have an 80 per cent crop. The crop In the North Is large, and Tulare will have the heaviest yield in the history of tho county. The first important ship ments for the North will start the middle of this week. "Lemons will be scarce during the coming season. The large packers will again control the output, as they alone saved their crops There will b a good yield of grapefruit In California, but the trade on this Coast pre fers the Florida article. "Apples around Watsonville are very scarce and are all In dealers' hands. There were large crops at Julian and Oak Glen, In Southern California. One Los Angeles tlrm will get 250 cars of apples from Its . orchards. "Vegetables In the San Francisco territory ar scares. Practically nothing . but caull- flower is available. They are shipping In cabbage from Oregon and Los Angeles Is doing the same. Rains In the pass week, however, will help the situation' somewhat. Northern California will have a normal crop of celery, but the celery crop In South ern California is a poor one." Foreign Butter Will Arrive Today. The first shipment of New Zealand butter will reach this market today. The trade has no definite idea yet what effect the Importation will have on prices. The mar ket, however. Is Inclined to be weak. Prices yesterday were unchanged. Eggs were scars and firm at the old quotations. Poultry and meat receipts were small, as usual on Monday, and Saturday's prices were repeated.

PRESSURE IS NOT SEVERE Small "Recovery Is Scored Toward Knd of Session Mexican Situa tion and Salt Against Har vester Company Are Factors. NEW YORK. NOV. 3. .Intrlhin. Teannnsa was made by stocks today to the depressing character of news affecting speculative opinion. Tha market was Impelled on a downward course at the outset by the de cline in American stocks at Londan, which was supplemented by moderate selling here for foreign account. At home, much was made of tho reported determination of the Government to adopt a sterner policy In dealing with the Mexican problem. The highly unfavorable bank statement of last Saturday, showing a deficit, also af fected the market adversely. Call loans were renewed at 6 per cent. It was ex pected, however, that the return of funds put out to meet November 1 payments quickly would eliminata the small deficit. Call funds broke late in the day to 2 per cent. The brief filed In the suit to dissolve the International Harvester Corporation was cited as another cause of depression. The street regarded the statement of the Gov ernment's position as Indicating an uncom promising attitude In enforcement of the Sherman anti-trust law. Particular atten tion was drawn to the Government's report for disintegration of the company In such a manner that "no two disintegrated parts shall be acquired by or come under the control of companies under common control or Influence." The decline In stocks ran from one to two points amone vlrtuallv all nf ty,m r,"su' was not severe and there was a "'"" recovery toward the end. Mexican Petroleum broke 11 to a new low record at 44 S. the break being influenced by the failure of the directors to act on the divi dend on -Saturday. New Haven broke through SO for the first time and both the old and new convertibles also reached new iww points. The bond market wan t, ti ,,.,.. t- tal sales, par value. 11,700,000.

JULY OPTION IS STEADY Goo Weather In Winter Belt aivi Probable Free Movement in North west Are bepressing Influences. Export Demand Lacking. CHICAGO.- Nov. 8. Wheat weakened to day after an early show of firmness and the market closed easy, HVic lower to that amount 'net higher. July being the only op tion to show strength throughout the ses sion. Corn closed at a net uplift of c to H9c oats were off H7Uc to H(?MiC. Provisions finished 2 Vic to 12 Ho up. On reports of slow cash trade In the Southwest, where arrivals showed an in crease, demand slackened, and wheat, which had been partly helped In Its upward trend at the first by early strength of corn, eased off considerably. Good weather In the Win ter belt and continuance of favorable con ditions Northwest for free movement . of grain also served to take the edge off the market. Absence of export demand was an other factor that aided the bears. Although corn closed at an advance over the previous day's wlndup, the market had lost considerable or the strength it exhibit' ed at the beginning of today's session. Oats followed the course of other grain and sank at the close, after early strength. Provisions ruled firm throughout on bull ish statements of stocks. The leading futures ranged as follows: WHEAT.
