PHIGES ALL A GUESS
Thanksgiving Turkey Market
Cannot Be Forecasted.
SUPPLY WILL, ;BE AMPLE
XJuyJng Demand Will Be Good, Un
less Quotations Are Too High.
A Few ' Eastern Tur-,
keys Coming.
TURKEYS Jobbers unable to forecast
Thanksgiving market.
POULTRY Better local demand for
most kinds.
EGGS Lack of uniformity In prices.
BrTTBR Market slow- and -weak.
FRUIT Cranberries have upward ten
dency .
VEGETABLES Now California cauli
flower arrives.
MEATS Market In satisfactory shape.
HOPS Salem dealer predicts early
advance.
V h jlrsalc poultry dealers and commission
mtrchan's arc receiving scores of letters from
farmers and country ehlppcrs. arklng "what
j?rie will prevail in the Thanksgiving turkey
market No definite answers, can be given.
as the dealers are very much in the dark as
to what the supply will be. The demand can
be pretty well forecasted, but no one has a
dear Idea of the volume that receipts will
assume, and the prices quoted will depend
entirely on the" supply and demand. The fol
lowing opinions .-were cxprescd- by the men In
the trade who will handle the bulk of the
tykey business this year:
TV". T. Turner Only one thing can bo said
with certainty, and 'that Is that the people who
ship In fat turkeys -will get the top of the
market I believe there will be plenty of
'urkcjs for thla market and I also look for
a good demand. Some Eastern turkeys will
be brought in, but not enough to cut much.
figure California will not buy so many tur
keys as last year in Southorn Oregon, an they
did not find the deal profitable then.-
Henry Everdlng It is almost Impossible to
say what turkey prices will be. We hoar of
many turkeys in the country, but many -will
also bo wanted.
J. H. Page The market cannot be fore
casted. If many come In prices will be low;
If not many are received, prices will be high.
I look for fair ThankFglvlng prices.
Bert Farrcll I look for prlees to rule about
the same a last year, when they were 22
ccnte, as I do not think there is any over
fuprly in the country. The demand will be
good unlcra prices are too high.
John A. Bell The market will probably
ranee somewhere between 20 and 25 cents,
but this is only a guess.
John Toft It ls impossible to .state what
Trices will prevail. The Indications point to
a gjod supply, as the season has been favor
able, and there Is therefore no reason to cx-p-ft
high quotations.
George II. Pearson The Indications are that
hi Thanksgiving turkey market will rule
firm, but there will be plenty to go around
f r oerybody. as there arc lots of turkeys in
the Valley.
H McCorquodale The demand should be
grcnter than last year, as there are more peo
ple in town, but the supply is up to the
average. I believe that prlccj will be about
23 cents around Thanksgiving.
HOP MARKET IMPROVING.
Joseph Harris, of Salem, Says - Prices Will
Soon Advance.
"The hop market looks better now than
it has at any time this season. There is less
disposition on the part of growers who still
have hoprt to do business, and buyers are com
pelled to go after them -when they want tho
goods. The growers arc finding out that the
situation rests in their hands and that it la
Ijow up to them to dictate what prices shall
be paid. Let them stand together and name
the price, and the market will be all right."
These were the words of Joseph Harris, of
Salem, at the Belvedere Hotel last evening.
Mr. Harris Is the Oregon representative of
Benjamin Schwarz & Sons, of New York, one
of the largest firms of hop merchants In
America. They arc among the heaviest op
erators this year, having bought 6000 bales
of hops In Oregon alone.
We are bullish on this markot," contin
ued Mr Harris, "because wc arc firm be
liever's in higher prices a conditions warrant
them- The low prices that are being paid
In Oregon are the result or manipulation on
the part of the short sellers, and this Is a
condition that cannot last much lonrer. We
have backed up our Judgment by buying heav
l'y since hops went Into the bale, having
taken on over 0000 bales and paid high price
for them.
"The market certainly warrants higher prices
In Oregon, because wc have the best hops
raised this year tho world over. There is a
"bg short Interest to be covered, and it Is
orJy a question of time until the short sell
ers will be compelled to get Into the market.
They must pay whatovcr prices the growers
demand. If the farmers .are willing Jo force
their hops on the market and sell low, why
they must take the consequences. But, T re
peat, if the growers will stand, together
and insist on reasonable, profitable prices,
they will get them. The shorts .simply must
have the hops to deliver 'or go out of business.
'Why cannot the grower do a little specu
lating now? He -was willing enough to act
the plunger when hops were at 30 cents, and
he certainly takes very little risk now. when
hops are selling for less than It costs to
raise them. If he holds for an advance. And
an advance is bound to come. "Within the
next three months you will ece prices materi
ally higher than they arc now.
"Tho greater part of the tolling up to this
time has been by growers who .were forced to
part with their crops, owing to having mort
gages on them. These weaker' growers have
now been weeded out. and It Is becoming
much more difficult to buy. A short time ago
the hop offices were crowded with sellers.
Now when a buyer wants hops he Is forced
to go to the country.
"I would like to state with reference to an
article In a Portland evening paper," In which
my name and that of our firm was used, that
there was no truth whatever in It. The sole
object of It was to do us an Injury and hurt
our reputation, which is one thing we take
a pride In. I know very well who is responsi
ble for" the attack and all I wilt say is that
It was a mean, contemptible piece of busi
ness. "
SHIPPING DEMAND FOR PRODUCE.
Car of New Los Angeles Cauliflower Arrives
More Cranberries.
An excellent shipping demand Is reported in
the fruit and vegetable trade, though city
business Is rather quiet. Among yesterday's
rail receipts was a car of excellent Los An
seles cauliflower, which was put on sale at
$1 7S-Q2 per crate. A car of new oranges was
hauled yesterday and the fruit was found to
be well colored.-. Another car Is ripening on
the track. A'ear of Eastern vcranberrlefl also
arrived. This article is decidedly firm, and
a further advance -Is expected. The Eastern
market Is quoted at $9.50310, and on a parity
cranberries -are worth S1212.S0 laid down
here, though some local sales are. being made
as low as $11.50. Prices on cranberries are
booming at San Francisco, quotations (stand
ing at $14015.
Will. CUT DOWN' HOP ACREAGE.
Polk County Growers Let XJo of a Number of
Bales at Top Price.
INDEPENDENCE, Or., Nor. 14". (Special.)
Growers here fell In with the proposal to
cultivate only half their acreage of hops, next
year. The matter was freely discussed among
hopgrowens. and , the .outtlng In two ot their
yards for 1906 was generally favored.
Klaber, "Wolfe & Netter made seme pur
chases today. TL D. Cooper let go of 102
bales. J. E. Hubbard DS. and Walter Roy

The jSlopcr & Patton-lot of J03fbales hae
also beeji sold to Phil Nela. The price Is not
made "public, but Is known to be better
than 10 cents. J'
A sujt Is threatened by George Dorcas and
E. M. Toung. agents of Klaber. Wolfe &
Netter. against Alva Craven for the delivery
of 00 bales of hops. Dorcas & Young al

state what his defense will he. Aa interest-.
Ing case of litigation is promised.
Poultry Market. Improves.
The demand for "poultry showed Improve
ment yesterday. Receipts were fairly good
and chickens cleaned up readily at somewhat
better prices. The Inquiry for turkoys was
not particularly brisk, but ducks and geese
were asked for.
Freth Oregon eggs .tvere quoted at a 2-ccnt
range, sales being made at 32 Vi. 33, 34 and
35 cents. At the" top figure the demand was
slow, jas fresh Eastern were offered- at a con
siderably lower price. . ,
The butter market was without change, the
movement being slow and stocks ample.
Dressed Meats Steady.
The "market for dressed meats shews no
change In prices. Veal is coming In sufficient
ly heavy for all requirements. The trade
could stand larger receipts of good hogs. Mut
ton is also in good demand, but not much
is coming in.

MONEY IS Ffl.SIFR
Relaxation of Tension Causes
Stocks to Advance.
RECOVERY AT NEW YORK
Liquidation of Monday Is 1'nctor in
Strengthening or Banking Posi
tion Less Prospect of Im
port .Movement of Gold.
NEW YORK. Nor. 14. Stocks made a vig
orous recovery today from tho decided weak
ness of yesterday. The relaxation . In the
money market was the nominal cause of the
movement, although the rates for' call money
during the day Indicated a degree of string
eney that had a decided restraint on any large
renewal of speculative operations. The rate
touched was IS per cent, aa against the actual
high rate of 20 per cent yesterday, not count
ing the flurry to 25 per cent Just before the
ek, ' which was regarded as having no slg
nlfleanee. But the high rate of today was
held only momentarily, and a very email
amount of money w&s placed at that rate of
Interest. Later In tho day, after the principal
demand had been satisfied, the rate fell be
low 10 per cent. This occurred much earlier
in the day than was the case yesterday, and
was the result of freer offerings of funds. The
actual situation of the money market, there
fore, was considerably ameliorated as com
pared with yesterday.
The liquidation affected yesterday of course
was a factor In the strengthening of the bask
Ing position. Large loans placed by foreign
capitalists also ployed a part. Reports were
current that plaelng of Canadian funds and a
movement of gold to New York from Can
adlan ports were factors at work In the
money situation. The circulation ot rumors
also continued of ultimate Intervention by
the Secretary of the Treasury to -ease the sit
uation in ease of any threat of dangerous eon
fequonces, although the reiterated Intention
of the Secretary of the Treasury to confine
any intended relief measure to the need of
regular business borrowers was again re
ported from Washington. Beside all thla
there was a growth of a feeling that the slt
uatlon did not call for an extensive bultduag
up of rererves by the banks at this time.
It was considered that the deficit In the legal
reserve requirement established on Saturday,
left the percentage of total reserves to deposit
liabilities at 24.76 per cent, while the percent
age of total reserves ever since September 1.
with ye exception of the week ending October
21. and that ended October S. was not below
26 per cent. The actual change In the con
dition of the basks therefore, was not great.
aside from the sentimental effect of the ex
lMenee of an actual deficit In egal reserves.
Speculative feeling was disposed to the View
that tho bankn were not called upon at this
time to go further than to repair the actual
deficit. The pressure upon the money roar
ket at this time Is recognized as due entirely
to the active business conditions, supplemented
by the speculative demand based on confi
dence In the general business session. This
condition explains the extraordinary expan
slon to which credits ot the bank have been
extended and these same condltlow are looked
to maintain confidence In the great volume
of outstanding credits. Nothing like distrust
has been cited as the cam for any of the
lean contraction which has been put Into
fsree. but simply the limitation of resources
to meet the extraordinary demands for credits,
However, the demand upon the bank reserve
continues, the operations with the sub-Treasury
since the last bank statement having caused
withdrawals already of $1,421,000 from, the
banks.
With lheeailng of the money. raleA during
the course of today, there was also a rally
la foreign exchange rates, and the prospect of
an import movement ot geld was thus dissi
pated for the present. The last prices for
stocks were the best and the closing was ac
tive and strong at uniform net gains running
from 1 to 2 pouiti for the principal stocks.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par val
ue. $4,110,000. United SUtea 2s and oM
4s advanced U and the 3s Vi per cent on
call, while the new 4s declined r4 per cent on
call.

Chicago 3Iarkct Closes With a 3Iod

Export Small Increase
In World's Visible.
CHICAGO. Nov. 14. Initial quotations In
the wheat market showed fair gatasL the May
optlon being up Ugc to ?5c. at SSUSSU
5Sic. The market at the opening was influ
enced mainly by the unexpected strength at
Liverpool, the weakness of yesterday at Chi
cago having apparently little effect on the
English market. According to a foreign statis
tician, the advance at Liverpool was the result
of reports from Argentina to the effect that
much damage had been wrought to the wheat
crop In the Northern districts by ralnct fol
lowed by frost. There was seemingly leys
uneasiness here over the money situation In
New York. This lack of anxiety was general
ly attributed to the fact that the majority of
tho weak holders had Hsposed of their lines
In the general liquidation of the past few
days. As 'the trnkm advanced, reports of Im
proved buyinjr on foreign demand gave lra
putua to the upward tendency of prices. At
New York 20 boatloads were reported taken
for export, while a similar amount was said
to have been shipped from Duluth to Great
Britain. Strength of cash wheat at Minne
apolis, resulting from an urgent demand from
mltters. woj a further Incentive to the pur
chase of option. Another bullish Influence
was the smalt Increase In the world-' visible
supply. Throughout the day shorts and com-mliriton-houaes
were active bidders. Offerings
at times were light. At SSSSic. May
reached the highest point of the day. Final
quotations were up -?ie. at 5Sc.
The corn market ruled firm throughout the
day. May closed sc higher at 454c.
Trading In oata was small, but the market
held firm In sympathy with the strength of
wheat and corn. May closed -"Jsc up. at 32ic.
Provisions were weak aa a result of con
tinued selling of lard by local paakers. A de
cline of lOo In hogs had a depressing effect on
the price of other products. May pork c!oed
10c down, kird off 5c and ribs 574c lower.
