Com mitments Over Sunday In View of Possibility of -Unfavorr able" Developments. NEW TORK. June 24. There was a paM today In the activity of the operattoos for advance la prices of stockr.- -and 'tat two hour session of the nock exheange was Quiet- a' disposition was shows to re duce ccmrnltrrjrnU In the market In view of the Sunday Interval. The clouds on the European political hori zon accentuated Ihls -tendency. A further sharp break In French rente and the further running off of the sterling rate at Paris were testimony to the acuteness of the anxiety over the relation between France and Germany. -British console were 'affected In less degree. Both of thes government securities rallied before the tlee cf the mar kets In London and Paris, but there was free selling here for foreign account and the possibility of unfavorable" developa'tits be fore Menday was canva-sed. The wheat and cotton markets showed a yielding tendency, and prospect of clear ing and warmer weather in the wheat bet were regarded with tatlifactton. but the commodity markets were ' also affected by pecul-itlve realizing IncMenr to the dosing of the week. The bank statement revealed a replenish ment of- reserve mueh larger than was an ticipated, the increase in cash averages reaehlng $7,512,200. At the same time a $2.000.0 toaa contraction operated to re lieve the reeene requirement In proporttoa. The favorable bank statement, however, was taken advantage of to pursue the prevailing disposition to realize and prices ran off afttr a partial recovery, clewing easy and at a soot the lowest all around. Total sales of bonds. par value. $1,457,000. A speculative leadership for an advance ia prices has asserted Itself In the slock mar ket this week and has moved prices upwards with aggressiveness and determination. The leadership is evidently in the hands of prac tical and skillful operators supplied with abundant means and organized to attempt aa extensive speculative campaign. Large orders have been distributed In concentrated form and give evidence of coming' front aa organized source. The advance In prices has rncouatered an important volume of realiz ing sales and ihese hate rather Increased as the advance extended. But offerings were absorbed and the boldness manifested by the buying has Impressed observers with the power and resources of the conductors of the campaign. Speculative sentiment has beea the more Impressed by the aggressiveness of the leadership owing to the fact that some of the Immediate news of the week has been unfavorable to the movement and has been Ignored. Probably the most striking feature of the I present stock market i its close conformity to what from past experience might be called the financial time-table. A mere or less protracted rise through the Winter aad early Spring; a more or less violent reaction, oc- ' earring In May; a, warm period during the I early part of June and then another term of j rising prices, these are the successive pro cesses through which Wall street has passed almost evey year since 1S0S and it Is pass ing through them again jhU season. The xpianatlon commonly given for the dull spell In tardy June Is that the market is walling on the crops. If the-crop euilook by the end of the month is good, the time has arrived when speculation can begin to dis count the effect that a prosperous harvest is to have upon dhe business of the country for the ensuing year. It is the promtae decidedly above the ordl nar' for a plentirut harvest next Autuma that has afforded the mala inspiration to this week's operating for the advantage of tae stock exchange. The chief point -that the price movement of the week has emphasized is that a market that has been liquidated arvc where holdings of securities have become strongly concentrated U la a position to dis tinguish the really important determinants of value and give them precedence over every thing else. The plain reasoning that has gov erned Wall Street for the past few weeks 1 that the outlook for the cropn Is excellent: that bountiful harvests mean beyond reason another year of great business prosperity; that this in turn will bring larger dividends to holders of stocks; that prices. In spite of their great advance, have not yet discounted these prospects for dividend returns. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. bid.

Our to Excoaa of Receipt Over Ship menta of Currency on the Interior Movement. NEW YORK, June 24. The Financier says this week: Though - a favorable bask statement was anttdpaied. because the' preliminary est! males which were based upon th traceable movements of money indicated a large Increase In cash, last week's official rtturn of the As sociated Banks disclosed a cash gain grtatly exceeding expectation. It being about $1,750. 000 more than the highest estimate. The toaa Item was. however, disappointing, in that it showed a contraction, whereas an ex paaston was looked for. The Increase In tur olus reserve was so large as to make the total more than double that shown In the previous week. The cash gain was $9,512. 200. and It was chiefly due to the excess o receipts over shipments of currency on the Interior bask movement and also to heavy disbursements by the sub-Treasury. The currency Influx was augmented by shipments hither by corporations of funds preparatory to the payment by them threugn the banks' of July dividends and Intereot; th sub-Treasury payments were heavy because of pensions, redemption of bank notes and settlements for mall transportation Incident lo the dose of the fiscal year. The deposits Increased $6.35.100. which was $933,900 be low the sum of Increase in cash less the contract too of loans; hence the statement made only a fairly good proof. Loans were reduced $2,048,200. which would seem to Indicate that contractions largely off set the expansions resulting from the loan ing of the proceeds of foreign financial bills, and also of the temporary deposits by cor porations of money preparatory to the later disbursements of dividends and Interest. It Is expeeted that la the current week such corporation deposits will largely Increase, and this gain should correspondingly Influence loans. The statement of averages of the clearing house banks of tnU rity for the week shows: Increase.

Smith Makes a Prediction as to 19 05 Market Values Early Buying by Brewers Can Be Looked For. PORTLAND. Or.. Just 21. iTo'the Editor.) I wsnt out yesterday aad examined tho RIs- j ley hopyard of 20 acres, b-tween Portland and Oregon City. I examined this yard sv- eral times last Summer, and then found near- j ly every hill alive and perfect, but now 1 find considerably over half of th hills ab solutely dead. On a row of 51 hills long run ning through the average part vf the yard there were- 43 dead hilts, la another row of 64 hills. 43 were dead, and 1 saw plenty of other hl!b that would run even sorse. As this is the only yard that t have had an or port unity ol thoroughly examining In Oregon, of course. I cannot say whether this feature Is general throughout the state. However. I am ie'termed by some of the most reputable and conservative dealers in Oregon that, thto : feature of dead hills is mere or lose general. and that there' are 3 great many spotted and pwieoKinK Jiw. Tae uee question win soon Become a se- rious problem, unless Oregon has several days of boiling hot weather, and that must come toon, a- the lice are rapMty drawing the vitality from the viae. A month later the vine would he mere hardy aad could better stand the effects of hce. but every da now under the present lice rood tea retards the future growth of the viae. The coaJtttns ..- lice In California are also reported much worse than in Oregon, especially in the Sonoma dis trict, which-- is the choice district of Cali fornia. I was. in Ca:ifcrE.a Ust wtik. ard the hlghu figures 1 ou.i g: i-n ihe 1903. erop from dealers was ab.vt trie rme as to 1Vj4. 3 nian of iiwm p.i it dc w 4.tn m 5-XOOO bales. From all th aexs I get of th EnglUh ar German croca. they .-r look .a? unusuaHy veil for this time f yesr. But w must cot forget the fact that .H England Ukes 40.000 to 30.000 bales of American Hops every year, regardless of any conditions jhe may have at home. Thto fact i aceooat-d fo.- in this way; There is a class of English brew ers who have become partial to American born, and they demand 40.00 to 30,006 bales of our hops every year, r'gardless of any conditions or values they may have at hcirw. New York State, at the best, will not have to exceed 50.000 bales la '1903. Altowlnz Cr- gsn 100.000 bales for 1P03. and Washington 40.000. we are then short of last year's pro duction in America about 23.0n0 bale. One year ago at this time there wer 13.He bales of oW olds in New York State which have r.QT all been used up. 1 came Into your market h-r t June at 20c for 904 contracts, and. in fact, was the first man that paid this figure, buying th Dobion crop la Washington. In a few dai Mr. Schwartz and others paid the same price. The priee gradually advanced to over 30e. On leaving the Coast for New Tork. in October. I advised the Oregon growers that !f they would stand together they would get stHl higher prices. The result was la.tt hy would not stand together and values began to decline. I will make a Dredletlon again for 1905. which Is this; Judging everything from the present outlook, there wlH be a time be tween now and September 15 when every grower who wants to sell will easily obtain 20 to 23 cent". It Is a well known tact that the market this year to full of short sellers, who have been waiting, ex pecting to cover their sales at 13c through contracts with growers. But I believe the Krebs movement wilt check further eemract Ing. I am basing my Meas on exltinz corMsHlons. Aa It Is now between hay and grass, there are a hundred aad. one things that might yt happen to further shorten the wortd'a crops. There will undoubtedly be heavy bwym by dealers early la the season, owing to the fact that brewers will be out of alt kinds of hops, and they will all want some early. I have bad the situation figured right, for tunately. for the past few years. However, this may be a year that my Judgment will be reversed. If It to. In the face of all the facts that are welt known today, I wlH make no further predictions. E. J. SMITH. LIVESTOCK MARKETS. Prices Quoted at Portland Union Stockyards Yesterday.
