It is the belief of potato shippers that the
"'i"u auppiy in tni state, which now
amounts to about 20 per cent of the entire
nop. can be diepo-ed of through the South
western markets, unless holders advance their
prices above what the market will stand.
Quite a number of orders came in ycaterday
irom rscw and Old Mexico. Texas and Arizona
mums, inere in also more inquiry from
Northern California, and the- San Francisco
nwrket Is picking up and should remain In
fair shape, unlets exccMlve supplies are rushed
in from the North. It is understood that po
tatoes are being well cleaned up in that eec
Hon. which will provo a good thing for the

arc now busy with th.lr farm work, it is
not thought that any cxcceslve supply will be
rushed to market.
"The -movement to the Southwest." said Mc
Klnley Mitchell yesterday. 'Vhould pretty
Teu wean up the crop In this state. No great
advance In prices can be expected, but there
will probably be a fair market from now on
My idea Is that the California crop will be
late in coming on. and all the old potatoes
there will be used at home."
The potato tltuation is rtronger now in all
parts of the United States than it has been
at any time this srason. Along the Atlantic
seaboard there have been a number of sharp
advances, and these have stimulated the mar
keta further west. Mall advice Just at hand
from Chicago eay:
It is admitted that from now on the mar
ket will depenl on tho supply of potatoes yet
Je't in the growing sections, ir receipts should
show up a little heavy for a few- days and let
he trade get supplied It is thought price, will
go down a little anyway. But it is not ex-
pected that the market will ee much decline
he balance of tho srason. as it appear to be
a foregone conclusion that warehouse stocks
hroughout the country are worked down to
a clos point. This is true of practically
(very potato section where supplies are being
:rawn on by the local trad. From September
J up to March 29. 5S92 earn were received on
this market, as compared with 7228 cam re-cclx-ed
during the corresponding period one
year ago. This difference furnishes anjara
about the business transacted' here tlio pres.
-nt season, and when it is considered that
nearly every section reports favorable condi
tions during the Winter for loading and ship
ping it only lends emphasis to the statement
that a larger proportion of the crop was
- moved during the period indicated the latter
i lart of last year and the first part of the
present year as compared' with the move
ment of potatoes a year ago when more or
les trouble existed on account of cold weather
and scarcity of cars.
What the markVt will or will not do is a
hard matter to predict. If it is true that
practically all warehouse stock is cleaned up.
and it favorable weather should continue for
moving the potatoes left, providing they are
nf good1 quality, there does not sejm to be
much prospect for a decline In prices, but. on
the other hand, it U doubtful if the market
will go a great deal higher. Price have al
leady advanced beyond the expectation of even
the "wlae" ones and a number of dealer who
are in close touch with the situation admit
that they are- surprised at the caper the mar
ket has cut. New potatoes will not be mov
ing in a way that will bring them In competi
tion with old etock at the earlier before the
middle of May. and probably later. Some
dealers think that unfavorable conditions in
the South and Southwest will make potatoes
late in thoe sections, and should this opin
ion be well founded it Is possible there will be
mo montns ana a half left for selling old
potatoes.
BIG TRANSACTIONS IN HOPS.
AbOHt 2400 Bales Bought by Salem Dealer
This Week.
The facts of the flurry in the hop market
this week came to light yesterday. As was
surmised, there was a scramble by Salem
buyers to get in before the short supply was
entirely exhausted, but the volume of deal
lngs proved to be much larger than was
estimated. Instead of 1000 bales changing
hand, the Salem men bought between 2300
and 2400 baits since Monday.
Probably no one was more surprised at
the sudden demand than the buyers them
elves. They had looked upon the season as
practically closed, when all t once order,
from the East began to pour In. These or
ders were doubtless the result of tha sta-
tlstlcs regarding the remaining supply for
warded to the.. Eastern trade last week.
Of the Salem men who participated in the
buying movement. II. J. Ottenhelraer headed
the list with about 1000 bales to his credit.
These purchases are believed by local hop
men to have been made for Charles Werner.
Charles Llvesley, representative of the e!
Clemens Horst Company, bought between
TOO and S00 bates and Catlin & Linn se
cured about 600 bales.
Nearly all the purchases made during the
week were at 9 and OH cents, in addition
to the Mies printed yesterday morning. H
h been learned that Catlin & Linn secured
the Thlelion lot of 113 baits and the Kep
ringer lot of 100 bales, both at Gervale.
and OtUnhelmer the Henrlot lot of about
ISO bales at Cowlltx. all at 0 cents. One
interesting deal was the purchase by Lives
ley of Hlrschberg-s 1904s, 350 bales of them,
at 6 cents. This last lot ha figured In
more or less litigation and Its transfer al
most cleanr up the state of olds.
The supply of 1005s. by the big movement
this week, has dwindled to very small pro
portions. James Linn and Henry Otten
belmer went over their lists or growers
holdings yesterday morning and found that
between S500 and 4000 bales w.re left in
first bands. Just about enough to last an
other w.ek at the rate they hare been going.
ANOTHER DROP IN BUTTER MONDAX.
Top-Price Handlers Expect to MsdaUta Tal
aes Today.
It Is the btlier in the local buttsr trade
that the 36-cent quotation cannot b held up
after this week. Several of the city cream
eries are already down to 22 cents and all
but on. r the Front-strest commission
bouses art quoting that price or lower. The i
surplus Is growing and a decline that will
have affected all handlers Is looked for M su
dsy. Speculators arc tigusfng en the bottom
of the market being reached at as early
date.
Eggs hold steady at 16 cents with the rap-
ply and demand both good.
The poultry market shows so change.
Hens ere in small demand, aad weak, but
Springs sell readily at good prices. Geese
are in fair demand and ducks are Quoted
firm, as are fat dressed hen turkeys.
BARK OF GREEN TRUCK.
Practically No Vegetables Offertec Front
Street.
Front street is practically bare ot green
vegetables of every kind. A car of cabbage
and cauliflower Is due today and this is the
only relief expected before the aext tea-aer
arrives.
One car of oranges arrived yesterday and
the coming week will bring In four or five
.more, not near enough to supply the de
mand, even at the high prices now ruling.
Two cars of bananas reached the yards last
night and will be hauled this morning. The
Inquiry for bananas Is exceedingly strong, as
they are the cheapest fruit offering at the
present time.

NEW TORK. April 6. Mty oa call lent
at 31 per ctm oa the Stock Exchange, thux
keeping up the tendency cf a progreMlve rise
In the maxlsssi asoney rate for each day of
this week. The excess over yesterday's 30
per cent rale, however, as Is sees, was oaly
aomlnaj.
The severest airlareaer of the day was over
before the period at which the Surry had oc
curred. In previous Gal's ot the week. This
was due In large part to the fact that neces
sitous borrow eii were prompt to supply their
needs rather than wait until late la the day
la fear that rates by that Use would be
higher than yesterday and the supply ot
available funds reduced to-aarrow proportions.
The late Carries heretofore .have been lantely
due to this data of borrowers, -and the Qual
ity of their collateral has also played aa Im
portant part. The forehasdedssss oc borrow
ers today covered the requirements, while
there was stln plenty of time to make ar
rangements. The cosiequeace was a tbarp

Weklr Review of Trade will ear:
Opening of Spring trade Is not perceptibly
retarded br the rartlal Interruntlon to eoal
mlnlag. except in the Immediate vicinity of
antnracite miaes. Were it not for a feiv
labor controversies, the commercial horizon
would be doadlean.
That the year 190 started out to ecllcse all
record Is evidenced by bank exchanges belnsc
IS per cent larger than for the first quarter
ot tae previous prosperous year, while llahlll
ties of commercial failures averaged only St
cents ot each $1009 of solvent payments
tnrougn the deartag-houses. which Is the low
est commercial death rate for the first threo
months of any year. The average loss" If
autributed through ail the firms la business,
woojo b oniy to each concern, not a
serious burden to be boras by the mercantile
world. t
naunay earnings in Jiarcn were 6.8 per
cnt larger tnan last year, an foreign com
merce, at thfci port for the last week showed
gains ot $1,13960 la Imports' and $837,938 In
