Baontr ho papers tell of a meeting hold
? New York growers at Otsego at which
. I- Leek, of Richland Springs, submitted
Man ftr -Vevatin the market. Reporting
b atK-rttoc. one of the papefw said:
"" the plan of tho proposed association.
"ctt grower la to receive 20 cents per pound
:or Mft hope, regardless of quality, and the
payments therefor are to be mado monthly
fra December 1 to July 1. At that time
Jl the hops remaining in the hands of the
ojmoeaaUoR are to be divided among tho
Wrwers. As the supply u to -be regulated
Hv the demand, it le thought that the brewers
wilt be glad to take the small furplus In
lew of the advantages they will gain.
If the association should be formed its
working would be wmcwhat after the fol
lowing: Every grower raises and bales his
nope and out of his crop be takes three Bam
i4e Ave Inches square. Upon each sample i
Haced the grower's name, address, the num
her of bales and the numbpr of pounds in all
ne f the mmplen Is then sect to each of
the centra! offices, to bv located in New York,
Son Fmacisco and Chicago.
" At the central ofllce an Inspector separ
ate the MHtpic Into three different grades,
t he oM itt IK. 20 and 22 cents. When a
brewer peleci a sample the information is im
m4tately wlrod to the other two offices so
ibat eenfurkm may not arise. The growers
receive Jhair pay In dividends at tho end of
each month an explained.
"In regard to the expense of organizing It
the opinion of the promoters that the
money saved each year by each grower In
marketing bl hops will more than cover. In
the aggregate, the cost of building and cqulp-
i4ng the contra! buildings, while It la thought
thai the nale of the sample will pay the
-alartee of the officers and employee of the
etetteB.
TMa ptan will no doubt work beautifully
as eoon as Mr. Locke can find the brewers
h will ry the 18. 20 and 22 cents.
KGG IlKCEirTS HEAVIER.
Market Appear to Be Again on the Down
ward Grade.
Receipts of eggs were heavier all around
ertordny and the tone of tho market was
therefore weaker. Some small talcs were re
vorted at 17 cent, but the ruling prico was
16 Vk cents. A Kront-strcct weekly price cur.
rent says of the situation:
"'Market firmed up somewhat in conse
quence of cold and threatening weather, but
for the past two or three dayB. since It be
came apparent that nothing very severe was
o happen, buyers have been cautious, know.
ng full well that production would not te
materially decreased, and that when It
again became warmer receipts would be
rry large. Wc sold a few at 17 cents, but
"he market cased eff to 10H cents and we
lok for another drop In a day or eo, for we
tllcve that shipments will be vers heavy
"W e advise shippers not to hold It will not
lay at this time of the year, alse we are
l-adly mistaken."
A ' kinds of poultry were firm and the re
c!ptK were much below requirements.
Butter waa steady and unchanged. Tho
weather had no appreciable effect on
ocal cream receipts.
rOTATO MARKET DEPRESSED.
n FmncWo Shippers Advised to Go Slew
irkh Their Baying.
The depression has become acuto in the
potato market. San Francisco shippers have
almost ceased buying and as they have re
duced their prices but little stock is being
offered. One leading shipper yesterday re.
c rived the following California advices
Tfcta market is in a demoralised condition
and the most desirable grades have now
dropped & cent. The trado is loaded np on
OrogoM and at a time we thought the mar
vt vauUI lsnnrove it has Instead taken a
turn for the worse. 94x carloads of Oregonc
wert oa-rrted over from feat week and eight
more ears, arrived on the 1Kb. bes!dee 3W
tacks -on the Tertian boat a ad ltm from
oo Bay. mMc that day's 'arrivals afcewt

the rest of the season. Tho best thing the
farmers can do Is to consign the rest of
their holdings anV take their losses, for wo
can sec no sign of improvement.
It is also said in the trade that the late j
cold snap has hindered many buyers from
operating as they arc afraid of getting
nipped stock.
MOHAIR IS WEAKER.
Dcalerh Estimate That Thin Year's Require
ment Will Be Smaller.
The fact that & surplus exists of last
year's mohair clip of 400,000 pounds, more
than the total output of Oregon, gave buy
ers in this market somewhat of a shock yes
terday. It was known that there was some
carry-over stock, but Its largo proportions
was not suspected. This surplus sufficiently
explains the easier tendency of tho Eastern
market, which has been noted in the trade
papors for some time. Trices were accord
ingly reduced here and dealers quoted 2328
cents, according to quality. It was stated
that Eastern manufacturers would not pay
within 4 cents of last year's prices. How
ever, the Oregon market has not opened up
yet and actual values will not be determined
until tho buyers get to work. The strength
or weakness of the market will naturally de
pend on the character of 'the competition.
rrndi rroaiice Mores Better.
Tho milder weather caused much improve
ment In the fruit and vegetable trade yeh
terday and business was reported to be fully
50 per cant better. Cabbage and other green
stuff and oranges moved freely. A car of
cabbage, and cauliflower will arrive today
and the steamer will have a general assort
ment of small truck.

DAY IN STOCK. 3LARKET.
FIttrry in Call Money Hate to Nine
Ter CcnL Emphasizes Weak
ness of the General List.
NEW YORK. March 15. According to the
alternating movement of the stock market.
which has become notlceablo this week, prices
ehould have advanced today In reversal of
the late decline of yesterday. As a matter of
fact, a tendency towards recovering -became
faintly perceptible In the market after some
early extension of yesterday's decline. There
was not sufficient motive power in the vol
ume of transactions, however, to give the
movement of prices much headway. The re
covery was also impeded by the continued
liquidation in some of the public utilities
stocks. The dullness of 'the market was so ex
treme as to leave the trading absolutely Idle
for long perlOJ during which not a. single
transaction was recorded on the tape. Some
of the prominent stocks which take their
place occasionally as market leaders were
dealt In for only a few hundred shares, some
of them not opening until the final hour of
the session, whllo In a few cases the day
failed to yield a single transaction. The
continued collapse In the Chicago Union
Traction shares caused come anxiety aa to
possible consequences where these securities
figure as a basis for credits. The relapse in
People's Gas was regarded as sympathetic
partly on account of liquidation Induced by
the fall in the traction sares. and partly by
the sentimental effect of disastrous conse
quences possible from hostile municipal ac
tion. -The continued liquidation in Consoli
dated Gas and rumors of a varying cut in
the dividend rate reinforced this Interprets
tlon.
Along tho same lines was the report that
railroad officials, both of Western and East
em lines, are dUctuslng the advisability of
a voluntary rate reduction as a. concession
to public opinion as x possible means of avert.
lag some of the proposed measures of re
striction or refutation of corporations. The
etagnant market was attributed partly to the
reassembling of the United Jimeworjcera- Con
ventlon and the desire to await the outcome
of Its deliberations.
The call money market held Its firm tone
today, the rate rising to 9 per cent during a
late flurry. The day s dtviaena disburse

ard Oil Company, were estimated at OTer (18,-
000.000. The sub-Treasury look upwards of
(1.000.000 from tho money market on the
day's operations.
Notwithstanding the rise In the money rate.
foreign exchange continued to advance strong
ly. Foreign markers were au inclined to
harden, and Paris renewed Us demand upon
London for gold. Foreign markets are aub-
lect to the varying wnnence or a threatened
recurrence of the Moroccan crisis, or with any
promise of the clearing up or that question.

The Influence of the collapse in Chicago
Union Traction stocks was emphasized by
