CANNED FRUIPPACK
Will Be Nearly as Large as
That of Two Years Ago.
AND ARE SUPERIOR IN QUALITY

EKect of Child Labor Law
on Iho Industry.
Estimated output of canned fruits and
vegetables In Oregon and territory
tributary to Portland this year a'nd
output in two preceding years:
Cases.
1003 110.000
1002 80.000
1001 .-..11S 000
The output of canned fruit In Oregon this
season, while not ec.ua! to that of 1801 In
Quantity, will be superior In quality to any
thing produced in this state In the history of
the industry. The two canneries In this city
and the plants at Llnnton, Salem, Eugene,
'Ashland and Vancouver, seven In all, will turn
out close to 110,000 cases, as compared with
an output of 80,000 cases last year and 118,
000 cases two years ago, when, the production
was tho largest on record.
There will be a medium pack of cherries,
a. good pock of strawberries and the Average
quantity of pears will be put up. The pack
of peas will be about 30 per cent short of
last year. Other vegetables are not handled
In large quantity by Northwest canners. except
tomatoes, of which considerable are packed at
tho plant at Ashland. These goods, however,
do not find their way Into tho jobbing trade
here, but are disposed of In Ashland's local
territory. Prices for the list rule a little
higher than last year, and the increased price
seems to affect sales to somo extent.
The cost of packing In Oregon this year has
'Seen increased by the higher price of the
raw material and the additional cost of la
bor. The child-labor law passed by the last
Legislature affects the packing industry heie
as well as In Illinois and New York, not
withstanding the business Is conducted on a
smaller scale In this state. The provisions of
the Oregon child-labor law follow:
"No child under 14 years of age shall be
employed in any factor', store, workshop, In
or about any mine, or in tho telegraph, tele
phone or public messenger service.
"No child under the age of 14 years shall be
employed In any work or Arm for wages or
other compensation to whomsoever payable
during the hours when the public schools of
the town, district or city in which he or she
resides are in session.'.'
Child labor is thus prohibited In the fruit
canneries while It is permitted in the drled
irult industry, hopyards and orchards. The
came class of labor Is employed and the con
ditions that govern It - are practically the
same. Labor In the canneries as well as in
the bopnelds and orchards Is on the system of
piece work. It is very light work and "the re
muneration depends on the capacity of the
worker. They can do as much or as little as
they see fit. In the canneries In this city
the women and girls practically chose their
own hours, stopping when they are tired. Fur
thermore, the bulk of the fruit packing Is done
during the Summer vacation time and can
have no effect on the. schooling of children.
The real cause of the opposition of the pack
ers to the working of the now law Is that it
places the Industry at a disadvantage in vlevr
of the fact that no similar law exists In Cali
fornia, our principal competitor In the fruit-
packing business. The market Is made by the
total pack of canned goods In the country.
Oregon must meet the competition of other Pa
cific Coast states and the East in order to
move her goods. Anything that will tend
to Increase the cost of production hero will
tend to limit the output. If all localities had
the same law, of course the packers here would
not be affected. As It is, the canners of this
state think the child-labor law should havu
made an exception of employment in the fruit
packing houses, but since the law stands, they
are willing to abide by the consequences, not
agitating, as in the East, for an evasion or
modification of 'any particular provision of it.
Of the canning situation la the East, tho
Trade, of Baltimore,, says:
In fruits, the situation Is becoming clear as
to peaches. The verdict has to be rendered
at this time, that in this Chesapeake region
there are very few peaches of any kind upon
the trees. There was no great June drop to
record because there was no fruit upon the
trees to fall off; what fruit can be found is,
however, naturally, of a superior size and qual
ity, but this -will hardly compensate for tne
loss of the bulk of the crop. We know of
peach trees that usually bear well, upon which
but half a dozen peaches can be found, and
while they are of extraordinary size, such, an
ettect is disheartening to tho growers. Under
these circumstances the cheaper grades of
peaches will increase in value as' far as spot
stocks are concerned, and as the apple crop
will certainly be below the average In quantity
and quality, we will probably want peaches
badly before next Bummer's crop comes 'round.
In nearly all sections the quantity of straw
berries that has coxno to the canners has been
extraordinary, quality generally being deficient.
Raspberries have been somewhat more normal
and blackberries a good average.
WITHDRAW FR03I POOQL.
Change In the Hop Situation
at
y North Yakima.
NORTH YAKIMA. July 27. (Special.) A
new condition of affairs has arisen In the
hop situation in the Yakima Valley during
the last week or so. Of the pool of growers,
roost of the smaller holders have given notice
of withdrawal, though there does not seem
to be any more of a disposition to sell than
there was before. Someof the larger hold
ers maintain that they will not part with
their hops till the price goes tip again, and
they think theysee indications of a rebound.
There is also considerable talk of organizing
a hopgrowers' union during the coming year,
as the growers of the valley have never been
organized and they believe that such an or
ganization would be of great benefit to them.
Conservative- estimate places this year's crop
at from 12,000 to 13,000 bales, the same as
last year. A number of holders in the neigh
borhood of Zlllah this week sold 112 bales to
McNeff Bros. The price Tjald was not divulged,
but it is understood to have been about 16
cents.
BUTTEVTLLE HOP DISTRICT.
From One-Half to Two-Thirds of an
Average Crop Expected.
OREGON CITY, Or.. July 27. (Special.)
"There will not be to exceed from one-half
to two-thirds of an average crop of hops this
year," said Francis Feller, a prominent hop
grower of Buttevllle today. Mr. Feller gives
as a reason for the reduced yield the failure of
a great number of the vines In the majority
of the yards to .grow this .season. In many
yards, he says, there are fully 50 per cent
of the hills missing. Mr. Feller reports that
lice have appeared in large numbers in many
yards In the vicinity of Buttevllle. The reas
onably cool weather of the last iwo weeks,
he says, bu been favorable to tho propaga-
tlon of this pest, and unlets the weather be
comes extremely warm, accompanied by hot
wind, be predicts that more extensive dam
age trill result to the growing crop from this
source. With favorable weather conditions that
will accomplish the extermination of the Ilea !
and the proper maturing of the crop, Mr.
Feller predicts that the hops that will be har
vested will of a splendid quality.
Mr.- roller, who Is treasurer of the Oregon
Hopgrowers' Association, says the associa
tion will be continued again this year. By
pooling their Interests, the growers have been
enabled to purchase necessary harvesting sup
plies at reduced cost, although the efforts of
the organization at disposing of4 its hops have
not been us satisfactory recently as the . In-,
terested growers had "hoped for.

MARKETCLOSES STRONGER
WEEDING-OUT PROCESS CAUSES
SENSIBLE RELIEF.
Early Losses Dae to Announcement
of Stoclc Exchange Failure Are
Entirely Wiped Oat.
NEW YORK, July 27. In spite of, or prob
ably because bf. two additional failures on the
stock exchange E. S. Hooley & Co.. of this
city, and William Bassett. of Boston today's
stock market showed very general improve
ment and the situation, as a whole, was viewed
with more cheerfulness. The Hooley failure
was regarded as an Inevitable sequel to that
of W. T. Stow & Co., which came last Fri
day. The failure of Mr. Bassett was wholly
unimportant one of the day's Incident.
The market displayed a hesitating tone at
tho outset, many of the railroad stocks show
ing fractional declines. Slignt Improvement
soon followed, but prices fell off 1 to 3 points
in the active list, with even greater declines
in the specialties, as soon as the Hooley fail
ure came out. Evansville & Terre Haute a
Hooley specialty, declined &V& points, and tho
entire list reflected considerable contusion.
By the end of the first nour. the situation
seemed well in hand and prices advanced, save
In a few Instances, where pressure continued
to be directed at several stocks. The Bassett
failure announced at noon caused hardly any
excitement. So far as known, Mr. Bassett
has no outstanding contracts in this city.
Further Improvement was shown by the mar
ket In the last hour. Even Evansville &
Terre Haute recovered all but 1 point of Its
loss, Des Moines ic Fort Dodge, another Hooley,
stock, gaining 4 points. While somewhat ir
regular at times, the list made a number of
material net gains. These Include advances
of 2 per cent or more In the active railway
list: Brooklyn Rapid Transit, 2; Consoli
dated Gas, 2r Lackawanna, 9; Delaware t
Hudson, 414; Minneapolis 4t St. Louis com
mon. 3, and Iowa Central common and prw
ferrcd, 1 and 2 points, respectively. A few
high-class Industrials made gains, notably the
Westlnghouse issues, 5 points; General Elec
tric, 3; United States Steel common. 1& and
the preferred, IK.
On the other hand, some other industrials
finished the day. with severe declines. Shares
of the Rubber Goods Company and the United
States Rubber Company, in which the firm of
Talbot J. Taylor & Co is said to be Interested,
sold at better prices.
The falluro of Hooley & Co., announced
shortly after the opening this morning, renewed
the . feeling of nervousness, and prices were
again forced to ft lower level. There were vio
lent declines In some of the stocks. In which
the failed firm was Immediately interested. A
number of standard railroad stocks at the
same time sold 'down from 1 to 2 points under
Saturday's level. But even during this period
of initial weakness, there was manifest a good
absorption of stock and points of strength per
sisted against the depression. Later in the
day, when it was said no further failures
would be announced, the tone of the market
became very strong and the early losses were
wiped out, even in the weak stocks, while the
general level of the market rose to a substan
tial level over Saturday nignt.
The demand was especially conspicuous for
New York Central, St, Paul, Southern Pacific
Reading. Illinois Central and stocks of a like
substantial grade. Some large orders were
executed In all of these stocks and at other
points throughout the market. Some prices
ended the day from 1 to over 3 above Sat
urday's level for prominent stocks and at a
much wider advance for the less active secur
ities. Some of this buying was to cover short
contracts, and a considerable portion of it was
by professional operators for a turn in the
market on the long side. But there was an im
proved demand for investment, both in stocks
and bonds, and stock exchange commission
houses showed an increased confidence in ask
ing their customers to buy. Only a few of tho
Inactive stocks showed such violent falls as
havo characterized the recent market, which I
pointed to a conclusion that there was less
pressure to close" out unmarketable securities
figuring as collateral In lots and Improve.
ment In facilities for securing accommoda
tion.
The recent contraction of credit In the stock
market has been largely due to distrust of
such operations as those In which the recently
failed firms have been largely engaged. In
volving, as they did, inflation and manipula
tion of tho values of securities. The letting
out of this Inflation has really brought a sense
of relief from the oppression of artificial con
ditions hanging over the market and sustained
with difficulty. These held-over projects were
quite apart from the earlier ones In which
the syndicates were successful In holding up
prices until their holdings were taken off
their ba,nds, and which have left behind them
also their train of financial distress and dis
appointment. But with the passing of the
syndicates' interests In these and the abandon
ment of the artificial supports, stocks have
been allowed to sink to the level natural to
changes In their status. Tho recent failures
represent the abandonment of efforts to sus
tain by main strength the prices of securi
ties, tho market for which has passed, and
the closing up of affairs which resulted is tho
cause of sensible relief In the market. The
market closed quiet and steady and only
slightly below the top level.
The bond market continued rather Irregular.
Total sales, par value, $3,225,000. United
States bonds were unchanged on last call.

SPOT AND SPECULATIVE WHEAT
STRONG AT SAN FRANCISCO.
Portland Steamer Takes Fair Quan
tities of Fruit New Potatoes
Firmer Butter Easy.
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal.. July 27. (Special.)
This has been an exciting' day In the -local
grain pit. The strong cash situation caused
a further rapid advance In spot and specula
tive wheat and barley, the latter holding Its
gains the best. Shippers short of . cargoes aro
reported paying fancy prices In the country.
Oats were firm. Flour was strong. Bran was
well sustained. Hay was In much larger re
ceipt, but steady.
Fruits were in moderate local and shipping
demand. The Portland steamer took fair quan
tities. River boats with heavy supplies of
peaches arrived late, causing a sharp drop in
prices. Apples, pears, plums and prunes were
In large supply and easy. Apricots are still
accumulating on account of the bear tactics
of local canners. Nectarines and early grapes
are moving slowly. The weather is still too
cool for much activity in melons and all kinds
were weak under large arrivals. Berries were
In smaller supply and firmer. Mexican limes
were steady. Other citrus fruits were quiet.
Bananas were unchanged.
New potatoes were again In good demand and
firmer. Onions were barely steady. Green
corn was easier. Tomatoes arrived heavily and
sold lower. Other vegetables were In good sup
ply and generally weak.
Poultry was still quiet and nominal, with re
ceipts light. Butter was plentiful and easy
outside of a few special brands. Cheese was
firm. Eggs were firm, but buyers were hesi
tating, as liberal supplies of Eastern are close
at hand. Receipts. 70.000 pounds butter, 32,
000 pounds cheese. 26,000 dozen eggs.
