THE MOBKiyg OREGOffl-Ay,, TUESDAY, MAY 10, 1904. 1& OPS ARE MOVING lut All Transactions Ara Be tween Dealers, BREWERS NOT IN THE MARKET Crop Prospects Could Not Be Better- plow Trade Reported In the East and Abroad-Local Produce Quotations. Several lota of hop, aggregating about 1000 bales, have changed hands during the past peek at 25 and 25 cents. This Increased movement does not point to any better condi tion In the market, however, as consumers were sot Identified with the transactions. The sales were by one dealer to another, and 6how a rather weakened feeling on the part of those who let go. That others have plenty of confidence In the future of the hop market was evidenced by the promptness with which the offerings were taken. Crop prospects from the various districts are entirely satisfactory. The vine Is making thrifty progress and conservative hop men tee no reason to alter their estimate that the coming crop in this state will exceed 100.000 bales. Eastern and foreign mall advices report (trade dragging. The. New Tork Producers' I Price Current of April 30 said: The market continues In about the eairc dull rut that has characterized the trale ever since the middle of January. Brewtrs are all complaining of slow sales and show no disposition to operate, while there Is little Incentive for trading between dealers. The only business we have heard of on the local market was the sale of ICO bales last Sat urday of medium to prime Orcgons at 26c. The only encouraging feature In the situation is the comparatively moderate remaining stocks, and this fact keeps holders of fine gradea steady in their views as they claim all will be wanted sooner or later and they are In hopes that with the advent of warm weather and Increased consumption of beer brewers will be compelled to operate as the latter gen erally have allowed their stocks of hops to run down quite low. In this state growers have at last been enabled to get In their yards and report tho roots to have wintered very well. Advices from Germany report splendid growing weather and prospects favor able, but nothing doing In 1003 hops. English advices continue to report quiet markets. Liv erpool cable quotes Oregons 5 15s 0 15s. The following English reports were printed I In the Kentish Observer of April 21: "Wild, Neame & Co.. London There Is very I little sign of any renewal of activity on our market, and values continue unchanged. "W. H. & H. Le May, London The trade re- I mains quiet, the Inquiries noted in our last resulted in some small consumptive trade be ing done at current rates. Manger & Henley, London The demand con- Itlnues quiet and the. actual business doing Is for present requirements only. "Values remain practically unchanged. Exchange & Hop "Warehouses, Limited, London There Is practically no alteration as to the state of the market to report. Business remains quiet, only a small consumptive de mand paeslng, chiefly for the middle-class hops. Owing to the reduced supplies buyers experienced a difficulty in selecting their re quirements. J. H. Meredith & Co., "Worcester Business has shown very little improvement since Easter, the demand being of a retail char acter only, but thirty pockets of growers hops ponied the public sales last week, of which 20 were weighed on Saturday. Owing "to the scarcity of supplies holders are unwilling to make any concession in price, while consumers will only do business on their own terms. Work Is making good progress in the planta tions, and from all accounts the roots seem to have cut well, there not being so many dead hills as might have been expected. rOKTXAXD MARKETS. Grain.

S490HC ANNIVERSARY OF PANIC COMPARISONS BETWEEN CONDI TIONS IN 1S01 AND NOW. No Relief From the Apathy of the Stock Market-Steel Bonds Re- cover a Point. NEW TORS, May 9. There- was no relief today from the apathy of the stock market, which was at about as low an ebb as Satur day. The anniversary today of the panic of 1901 was the occasion of much discussion and moralizing, and of many striking compar isons. The fact was not lost sight of that excesses such as those of the Spring of 1901 may be counted on with certainty to bring reaction to such lethargy as now prevails, although It may be deferred by manipulative devices, such as caused the abortive "booms" which have occurred in the market since May 9, 190L The discussion of the present has to do entirely with the ability to main tain present rates of dividend dlstrubutlon rather than with roseate prospects of Increased disbursements, and strict attention is given to actual returns of earnings and traffic movement. The week's expressions from traf fic officials continue the showing of a declin ing level from last year, with a high level of operating expenses remaining In force. Re ports of coming retrenchments In more than one Important system were current and some hope was felt that benefit would result to the net returns. , The slight upward tendency of prices seemed due rather to the lntermlttency of the mar ket following the decline of last week than to any change of sentiment. The decline In the bank surplus last week and th contin uing factors which caused it give ground for reflection over the future of the money mar ket, although Its immediate ease Is un ruffled. There were no movements of general importance. A recovery of a point In United States Steel second fw was the feature In the bond mar ket. Total sales, par value, $1,900,000. United States 3s registered declined X per cent on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Bales. High. Low. ClOBe. Atchison do preferred Baltimore & Ohio.. do preferred Canadian Pacific... Central of N.

With easier cables, heavy world's shipments and a large Increase in the amount on passage, the wheat market opened at a decline from Saturday's closing figures, the July option being 4o to HQ lower. During the early part of the session the mar ket was dominated by the bearish foreign sit uation. There was considerable long wheat offered for sale, bat the demand 'was com paratively light. In consequence of the poor support, a further decline in prices was made, July selling off to S5ic As the session ad vanced the domestic situation forced Itself more prominently upon the minds of traders, and damage reports -were still being received and sentiment suddenly changed. Prospects of' a bullish government report tomorrow started liberal covering by shorts, which re sulted In a weak rally. After selling at 8649 SGc July closed at 864c During the early part of the day the corn market sympathized with the weakness In wheat. Later, the local crowd became quite active buyers, resulting in a firm tone. July sold up to 4S3c and closed at 4S&C The -same Influences that affected the corn market were seen in the trading In oats. Clos ing prices showed little change from Satur day's final quotations. July closed at 384. Provisions had a firm undertone throughout the entire day. The feature of trading .was the buying of pork by ehorts. The late strength in grain had some effect.

TBEASTJBE NEABXY LOST. Relic of Chinese Dynasty Discovered Through Smelting Company. SAN FRANCISCO, May 9. The Call this morning says: A massive gold seal worth Intrin sically $5000 and one of the priceless treasures of an ancient Chinese dynasty has been offered for sale in this city to a local smelting company. "Word was sent from there to the Chinese Consul-General. He deciphered the worn inscriptions upon its head and declared it was one of the most valuable relics of an ancient Chi nese dynasty. He said the gold came from the great range of the Khinga Moun tains and the sands of the Gobi Desert, and was gathered by hand from the rocks and channels more than 4000 years ago. Melted and refined in one solid mass, the artisans of those ages carved the inscrip tions upon the gold that have formed the official seal of tne dynasty for thousands of years, until more modern times and a greater sway caused a new imperial seal to be developed. Then the seal was dele gated to the nearest nephew of the Em peror as bis official signature. The seal was subsequently wimdrawn from sale by its present owner, who professes to have picked it up in China. It is said the Chi nese Consul-General has guaranteed the payment of $10,000 for it, which Is twice its intrinsic value if melted up. Veteran In Navy Desires to Retire. NEW YORK, May 9.
