THE MORNING OKEGONIAN. FRIDAY, JANUARY 16, 1903. ' 13 t . i v. i mi. v vw . i i HOPS ATTWENTY-SIX Sale Reported in Salem Top- Price, at OTHER OFFERS AT SAME.FIGURE Growers Look for an Early Advance to Thirty Cent Dcalcrti riold injr Their Stocks lor a Rise. . SALEM. Or., Jan. 35. (Special.) A Bale of bops at 2Gc was reported In Salom today, but the names of tlio parties to the transaction were not learned. However, David Craig, of Macleay, and Al Jerman, of HowelL Prairie, today refused 2Gc for their holdings. The 8a- lem hop market Is more firm than It has been before this season, and the prospect for an ad vance to 30c within a short time Is considered certain. In discussing the situation, a prominent local dealer today said: "The German market has continued to ad vance until now It Is at the highest point It has been any time this year or slnco 1800. Brewers have bought very sparingly so far this season, and It Is evident that they must come Into the market soon for their requirements. vo havo exported to date only 5,000 bales, of hops to England, and there Is no question but what England will require 30,000 bales add! tlonal to make up for her shortages at home. She cannot get them from Germany, as that market Is too high, and all the hops are needed at home. In fact. It Is reported that German hops arc being re-Imported into that country England will, therefore, havo to look to the Pacific Coast for her hops, and 30,000 bales will make a big hole In the Coast stocks. "AH this is causing the price of hops to ad vance slowly but surely. Every dealer in Sa lem has orders, but buyers find It difficult to secure anything, as growers are determined to hold out for all thcro Is In their hops. It Is reported that one firm bought a lot of hops today for 2Cc, and David Craig, of Mac! cay, as well as others, claim to have been offered 20c today for their hops. Al Jerman, of Howell Prairie, today refused 2Cc for his 240 bales. It Is also claimed by thoso who are In a posi tion to know that certain dealers are compelled to have hops by February 1 to cover sales made early In the Fall. The growers seem to be aware of this, and are determined to make such dealers pay dearly for their short-selling. The majority of the growers who have choice hops are holding for 30c per pound, and as they have the key to the situation, it is not at all unlikely that they will secure it." It is reported that Fabor & Ncls, a local firm, received an offer a fow""days. ago of 25e per pound for all of the hops that they have. The offer was rejected. Few sales are being made in the Salem market, but, so far as reported, the price has been from 2523c per pound. It Is the purpose of the growers who aro in terested in the enactment of a law by the State Legislature -providing for a hop Inspector, to present the bill at the annual meeting of the Hopgrowers Association, that will be held in "Wbodburn on Thursday, for the Indorsement of the organization beforo the measure Is Intro duced in the Legislature.

Control of the Property Belnpr Ac quired Through tae Preferred Stocks The Money Situation. NEW YORK, Jan. 15. There was very little character to today's stock market, as is sum clcntly Indicated by the volume ot dealings, which fell to about the 500.000-share mark. The subsidence of tho recent furious activity In the trading in Erie left little to the market. This sudden subsidence had a good deal to do with the feeling of suspicion which repressed the dealings In stocks. Yesterday's transac Uons In Erie of over 200,000 shares, at a net change for the day of. "4 point, struck the trad ers as not consistent with the Idea of compctl tlve buying of tho stock for control. This sus plcion was reinforced by the action of the stock this morning. After a momentary advance of a small fraction, the price fell back to below last night in a way that suggested realizing. Explanation for the shifting of the buying to the preferred stocks, which were both strong, was sought in statements that the control ot the property was really being acquired through the preferred stocks, but the higher prices In comparison of these stocks and tho comoara' tlvely small volume of their total outstanding issue did not commend this view to the traders, The continued liquidation in Reading also ere aiea a Dad impression upon speculative sent! ment, and this Impression was not dissipated oy me marking up today of Ontario & West ern in tho anthracite group, and the advance In Chesapeake & Ohio and Hocking Valley in tho soft-coalers. Rock Island and St. Paul continued heavy, with important sentimental effect upon the rest of the list. The result was a narrow and sluggish market, with only few stockB InfluencedlSr sneclal causes.

Today's statement of the Treasury shows: Available cash balances $212,824,715 Gold 107.154.859 FUEL DOMINANT FACTOR. Responsible for Present and Future in the Iron Trade. CLEVELAND, Jan. 15. The Iron Trade Re view, in its issue this week, says: Consumers of pig Iron and of finished iron and steel are still holding aloof from the mar ket, though tho volume of Inquiry would Indi cate early needs of considerable proportions. Fuel is the dominant factor, as It has been for more than a year; and as it Is mainly respon sible for present prices it bids fair to prolong substantially this level for some distance into the new year. Buyers distinctly avow their expectation of lower prices, yet some of them are making contracts for several months ahead, while others pay the market price for a few weeks' supply and retire to await develop ments. Foundrymcn aro In a position to appreciate the argument of blast furnace men that with coke at double the price of a year ago, and In the Eastern States with foreign iron laid down at more than barely competing prices, even after the $4 duty is paid, the new year does not atTord the profit of the latter months of the old. But foundrymen. in turn, find that with pig iron and coke both far above the con tract prices of 1002, they cannot get nrlcea for castings that will give them the margin they had In 1002. The question comes back" as in 1902 to the supply of coke that will bo available for fur nace and foundry. Southern furnaces conferred again about prices last week, but no change Is announced, and $18018 60 Birmingham con tinue to be quoted for No. 2 foundry for the second half of the year. For the first auarter ouu"u is the range; for tho second quarter, $19. The market meantime is narrow, but pro ducers being, well booked ahead are not mak ing concessions. German and MIddlesboro irons are still In moderate demand In the East, and recent sales indicate rather firmer prices, due to the In fluence on ocean freights and of renewed efforts to Import coal. Southern furnaces meantime are doing little In the East, and are, therefore, the more strenuous-In their objections to the further proposed advance of 50c on pig Iron, which the Southern iron committee is said to consider. The Bessemer Iron market Is Inact ive. Recent sales establish the price of $22 at furnace for tho first quarter and $21 60 for tho first half. With the cominir in of niw fumar-Kn the United States Steel Corporation will havo additional pig iron capacity of 600,000 tons a year by April, and is likely to require little If any iron from merchant furnaces.

The easy tone was quickly dispelled, however, on a good demand from the leading long, and the buying from that source wos continued throughout the entire day, It being reported that over 2,000.000 bushels were added to his line. Covering by shorts and buying by commission houses caused a sharp upturn near the close. Strong markets in the Northwest and a good foreign demand were also strengthening Influences.
