THE MORNING O REG ONI AN. FRIDAY, JULY 10, 1903r 15 .CAUSE 0FTHE8LUMP Hops Go Down on Improved Crop Prospects, GROWERS WERE MISINFORMED Uah FV Pox,- of Xe-iv York, Dlacnsse the Situation in Europe Profit In Raiaing Hops Even at Low Prices. In the Orst half of 1003, according to R. Q. Dun & Co.'s report, there were 5628 commer cial failures for $00,787,200 in amount of lia bilities, compared with 6165 bankruptcies In the corresponding months last year, when the defaulted indebtedness amounted to ?G0,374, S5C. "While the decrease In number was about 0 per cent, the sum Involved Increased a sim ilar percentage. This is due to several large failures. Separating the half-yearly record Into the three chief divisions. It Is found that there oc curred 12S0 defaults in manufacturing, with a total loss of $26,135,144, as compared with 1418 last year for $24,940,020. Traders sus pended, to the number of 4038, against 4410 a. year ago, and liabilities were $30,544,443, against $29,145,022. The third commercial sub division contains brokers, transporters other than railways, and similar concerns that can not properly be Included In either of the two principal classes. Of these firms 310 failed with debts aggregating $10,117,073, as compared with 305 In 1902 with liabilities of $0,249,435. Banks and other fiduciary Institutions sus pended with defaulted indebtedness of $0, 495.716, a most-gratifying return when com pared with similar liabilities of $16,797,763 last year, or $15,83989 In 1901. There was an Increase of ten in number over the bank ing defaults last year. On the Pacific slope the failure statistics wro remarkably uniform with last year's. Utah decreasing about as -much as California increased. The record for the Pacific States follows: Number. Liabilities. 1003. 1002.

On the contrary, while no great crisis or widespread calamity'' menaced the Nation's business, there were many exceed ingly unfortunate occurrences, some of suffi ciently disturbing character to produce ex treme conservatism. Doubtless this very cau tion is responsible for the comparatively light insolvency returns. Disasters due to the ele ments were more numerous than usual, floods devastating many sections, while tornadoes, fires and drouth caused havoc at other points. Industrial wars were frequent and costly, a vast army of wage earners voluntarily reduc ing their purchasing power, and of necessity curtailing the consumption of all products ex cept the bare necessaries of life. Sensational manipulation of the staple .commodities, not ably cotton, exerted much influence beyond the Immediate vicinity of the leading ex changes. Liquidation of securities.- averaging $15 per share for the CO active railways dur ing the halt year, followed a Tall it about' $10 a share during the closing months of 1002, yet this enormous shrinkage in the market value of stocks brought no such failures as would have occurred under similar circum stances In preceding years.

MARKET TURNS WEAKER PRESSURE TO SELL NEW YORK CENTRAL AND STEEL STOCKS. Further EnKaKmcnts of Gold for 12x port Add to tke Weak Tone Bonds Arc Heavy. NEW "YORK, July 0. The stock market de veloped rather acute weakness today, end, the volume of sales rote to more than double the recent average. The liquidation In New York Central and the continued pressure to sell United States Steel were the disturbing fac tors. There was no definite news to account for the marked weakness of New York Central, but the tape was regarded as giving ground for ominous conjectures. These took form in various surmises, as to the measures to be adopted by the corporation to secure the cap ital which will be required to carry on the vast terminal and other Improvements which have been undertaken." The fact of this cap ital requirement is well known, and the vari ations In today's rumors had to do simply with the manner of raising it. There were rumors of a projected issue of new stock, of a bond Issue and of a temporary loan on the secur ity of notes. The recent experience of the Pennslyvanla In floating its new stock does not offer encouragement for a similar under taking by other railroad corporations. The usual parallels were also drawn between Pennsylvania and New York Central, which have- been selling near a parity, while the former Is paying 6 per cent with the flotation of Its new stock achieved and the latter is pay ing 5 per cent dividends with the new capi tal requirements yet to be met. The downward plunge of nearly 4 points In New York Cent ral was the event upon which the whole mar ket hinged. Selling of tne steel stocks was aggravated by the Iron Age's showing of Incieased blast furnace capacity on July 1, the Increasing rate of accumulation of pig Iron and the slow re cession In the steel market. Pig Iron was marked down during the day and rumors wero current of a cut in steel billets at Pittsburg. United States Steel sold within a fraction of its low record level, and the second 5s sold lower than ever before. The announcement Just before the close of the market of the engagemnt of $2,000,000 In gold for export SaturdaV helped the late weak ness. With the movement of currency from the Interior arrested and with a loss Indicated already to the Subtreasury of $2,468,000. In cluding payments for gold exported and a sur plus reserve last Saturday of less than $S,000, 000 in banks, the influence of the future gold outgo reported .may be understood. The con tinued drain upon New York banks Is In strong contrast to the prompt and enormous recuperation shown by the Bank of England and the Bank of France In their weekly state ment today following the semi-annual settle ments. Develonments in the cotton and grain mar kets, the news of the crpps and statements of railroad earnings' were entirely ignored in tn day's stock market. Declines of 1 to 2 points were quite general, and St. Paul. Reaaina, Norfolk & Western. Colorado Fuel and Ten nessee Coal suffered even more severely. The bond market was heavier, and sharp declines were scored In some Inactive mort gages. Southern Railway, St. Louis Division 4s, dropped 251. Total sales, par value, $2,- 555,000.

The extreme weakness today of New York Central stock, together with a further decline In the company's 34 per cent bonds, gave rise to all sorts of rumors. some of them hlhgly Improbable, in the finan cial district. From a semi-official source It was learned that within the next three months the Central directors will recommend an Issue of new stock to pay for proposed terminal Improvements In this city. It is not unlikely that a holding company may be organized to carry out these plans. New Issues on German Bourse. BERLIN, July 0.

After September had sold nn to 78c there was a reaction on liquidation, but the market at no time showed weakness.

All Leading- Cereals Arc Strong Weather Too Cool for Active Frnlt Trade; SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. July 0. (Special.) The market was stronger for all leading cereals. Farmers deliveries were small. Thu wheat harvest returns reveal much deterior ation of crop. Shippers were active buyers of wheat and barley In the country. Low freights are causing good Oriental movement In flour. Bran was steady. Corn was higher. Hay was firm for choice grades and easy for lower. The market was. well supplied with Sum mer fruits, though receipts from river dis tricts were lighter. Bay counties are now shipping apricots freely. Prices for nearly all varieties of orchard fruits and berries were easy, except fancy lots. Good shipping pears. apples, peaches, plums and prunes were In fair demand tor tomorrow's steamer for Sound ports. Watermelons, cantaloupes and nutmeg melons, chiefly from Southern California, were In ample supply, but the weather was too cool for active trade. Lemons were better cleaned up and firmer. Other citrus fruits were un changed. New potatoes advanced sharply on light re ceipts and .'good shipping demand for Vic toria. Old Oregon Burbanks on the Columbia ore not yet unloaded, but the market has weaker symptoms. Onions were easier. Other vegetables, excepting fancy tomatoes, cu cumbers and squash, were generally easier. Poultry was In more demand and steadier. Butter was In better outside demand and a fraction higher, but the supply was ample. Cheese was firmer, as the production is de creasing. Eggs were strong and again ad vanced.

METAL TRADE REVIEWED. Demand for PIsr Iron Not Keeping; Pace "With Supply. NEW YORK, July 0. Our monthly blast furnace statistics show a considerable Increase In the operating capacity from 3SS.000 tons a week for the coke and anthracite furnaces on June 1. to 403,833 tons on July 1, says the Iron Age. The June production of all Kinds of pig Iron was 1,717,000 gross tons, as com pared with 1.756.000 tons In May, the latter, however, not Including the steel works making their own Iron. This would Indicate that consumption Is not quite keeping pace with the supply, which probably will be conceded Is the case at the present time, when labor trou bles are so much Interfering with the normal use of material. The pig Iron markets, although they show & little more animation, are still In an unset tled condition. There Is a good evidence that a great number of makers In some districts ore still hunting for orders, and melters are regulating their orders accordingly. The out side Southern furnaces have been getting pretty close to the basis of $13 for No. 2 at Birmingham, and there Is some curiosity to see what the associated makers are going to do about 1L A meeting Is to be held In Chicago this week. In the East the Northern furn aces have been leading the market, and some of them are making lower prices than tho Birmingham equivalent. The steel market Is quiet and Is receding slowly. An Increasing number of producers who have until now needed all they made are In a position to let the rolling mills have oc casional lots, so that the offerings are mora liberal. Production, however. Is falling ort. The plate and beam associations have met. but no change In prices has been adopted. The smaller bridge and construction shops seem to be making low prices to secure work. this having the effect of causing buyers to hold off. Tbo amount of tonnage on the whole being placed In the majority of branches of the nn- nlshed iron and steel trade Is light, and soft spots are appearing In a number of directions. As an offset. It may be observed that output will probably be light for some time to come, since labor is difficult to keep longer In vaca tion time, and many mills are In need of a gen eral overhauling. "Wool Markets. LONDON, Jujy 0. The offerings at the wool auction sales today numbered 12,310 bales. Trading was brisk throughout. Merinos wero in active request for the home trade and the Continent. A large supply of cross-breda. was offered, and France was a free buyer with the home trade and the Continent taking fair quantities. Scoureds wero in active de mand at the highest prices of the series. Cape of Good Hope and Natal greasy was not wanted, and most of the offerings were bought in. America took several lots of merinos and good medium crossbreds. ST. LOUIS. July 0. Wool, unchanged; ter ritory and Western mediums, 1618c; fine me diums, 14615c; fine, 13$15c. Coffee and Snsrar.

Sllverton Appeal. The wise old fellows shake their heads when we speak of this rapidly growing Cascade country and say that there will be a reaction. They claim that after the Lewis and Clark Fair everything will drop out of sight again, but we think this an extreme view. There may be a temporary check to our rapid evolution, but that will be all. Even if the Presidential election brings another panic, as Is possible, we havd no need to fear anything like a long continued stagnation. Very active work is now going on. Merchants, farmers, traders and even newspaper men are doing exceedingly well, and, though there should come a severe reaction, we are. even now, ready to meet almost any kind Chamber of Commerce of a panic, and bo ready to "go it" again "when the times comes to 4bob up serenely. Don't get frightened at pros perity. A proper amount of caution Is necessary, but fear is the worst kind of reaction and is out of place In times like these. Move up! COMPLYING WITH THE LAW StandardOil and Other Corporations File) Articles at Salem. SALEM", Or., July" 9. (Special.) The Standard Oil Company, as It will be known officially in Oregon, is an Iowa corporation, with a capital stock 'of only $1,000,000. This Is shown by its articles of Incorporation and declaration of inten tion to do business in Oregon, recently filed in the office of the Secretary of State. The name of John D. Rockefeller does not appear in the list of officers or directors, though the copies of articles of incorporation show that at one time John D. Rockefeller was a director In the company when an Increase was made In the capital stock. The Standard Oil Company which ha3 filed articles In Oregon has its principal place of business In Council Bluffs, la. It is evidently a company organized to con duct a pnrt of the great business of the larger corporation of the same name. The directors are; W. H. Tllford. of New York, president: H. M. Tllford. of New York, vice-president; C. M. Pratt, of Glen Cove, Long Island; L. J. Drake, of New York, E. C. Halsey, of Balmar, N. J., and "W. S. Miller, of Council Bluffs, la. The latter Is secretary and treasurer. George C. Flanders, of Portland is agent for Oregon. One by one the large foreign corpora tions are filing their declarations and complying with the requirements of the Oregon corporation law. Nearly 2000 do mestic corporations have filed their an nual reports, and more are coming in everyday. Nearly all of those that are actively engaged In business will have complied with the law when the last day of grace expires on July 20. Those that have not -yet filed their reports are de linquent, but they will not be subject to a fine until July 20. A few days ago the officers of an Oregon corporation wrote to Secretary of State Dunbar asking what they would better do about complying with the corporation law. They said that their attorney had advised them that It Is unconstitutional, and that they need not obey it. Mr. Dun bar replied that It was not his business to give advice for the guidance of others, but he remarked that It is always best for a man to follow the advice of his at torney, first being sure, however, that he has a good attorney. The Secretary of State added further that the largest cor porations in Portland, who employ the best attorneys, are complying with the law. DATES ARE ARRAXGED.
