Exporters are making some progress in loading the ships now here, but in view of the water-front strike they are malting no new tonnage en-KR'-ments and are doing but little In taking on supplies In the country. Moat of the busi ness in the interior is being done by millore, who are well supplied with orders. The sale of another cargo of wheat to Hongkong Is reported, but business with the United King dom is almost at a standstill. The general wheat markets showed some Im provement yesterday. At San Francisco there was an advance of over a cent, and the Chi- aco market moved up about hnlf a cent. Liverpool options were also a quarter higher and cargoes were quoted steadier at - London. The London Statist is out with an estimate that unless Russia enn make good her defici encies this year, from reserves from former year. ehe will have to import wheat. Ths rye crop this season it estimates at 40,000. 000 bushel less than the home consumption. CARMIC'IIAKIj Bl'YS HOPS. AVipan, Richardson '& Co.'s Agent Has Been Operating Quietly. SALEM, Or., K t. 17. (Special.) The en trance of Wigiin, Richardson & Co. into the bop market ia the most Important event in bop circles since harvest ended, and the dis covery today that the flrm'fl agent, John Car michael. has been buying created no small ptir. t'armlchafl buys exclusively for export to England and when he gets into the market at all -he buys in large quantities. This la well known, and consequently his present ac tivity is considered significant. Carmichael Is the mct extensive buyer in Oregon for export and has always bid above other deal ers when he wanted hops. This year the tirst news of hU activity came in the form of u report that he had overbid another dealer, for a Sllverton crop. fr which the first dealer thought he had olod a deal. K labor. Wolf & Xetter have been buying for export for several days, and now the. en trance of Wigan, Richardson & Co.. Into the market leaves no doubt that England will be a heavy buyer of bops. This will have a tiiiiulnting effect on the market and arouse interest on the part of American buyers who have not yet tilled their requirements. Car michael has been buying very quietly, evi dently with a desire to keep his movements from public notice, for the activity of Eng lish buyers alwuya makes the growers firmer holders. Five !Siile nt 16 Cents. Sixteen cents has been paid for live lots of hops in the pat two days, according to re ports received in the local market yester day. In each case the hops were of the fanciest export quality. This Is the kind of goods that the exporter that arc in the mar ket are locking for. and they say they are very hard to get hold of. Lower grades are being bought up at prices that vary consid erably. For the Homer tSoelet lot of 250 bales at Salem. 12 y cents was paid yesterday. The Uoelet lot sold last Saturday belonged to Peter Uoelet. Offers at McMinnviUe. M'MINNVILI.K, Or., Oct. 17. (Special.) A number of offers for hops at Id cents have been reported here today.

FLURRY IN CALL MONEY Session Closes With Slight Recovery From the Tate Decline Foreign - Trade Statistics for Month of September. NEW YORK. Oct. 17. The currents In the stock market were again sluggish today and transactions were on a small scale. "Within the narrow compass of the movement, however, it showed a reversal of yesterday's form. The undertone was heavy as contrasted with the resisting tendency of yesterday's dull market. Profits 1)ot scalping operators were very meager In today's market and them was little else doing. New developments with a general bearing on conditions were also scanty, although a few stocks were affected by special causes. Amalgamated Copper was moderately affected by the supposition that the dividend rate would be rained to 8 per cent at tomorrow's meeting of the directors or by the excited jump in the London copper market of over 3 a. ton In the price of the metal. New York Central was rather markedly heavy. This was attribu ted to selling of the stock against new stock subscriptions, the demand for the righta to subscribe proving unimportant. Consolidated Gas showed the further effect of the injunc tion to forbid the company from shutting off gas from consumers who refused to pay more than the 80-cent statute rate. The determina tion of Albany & Susquehanna stockholders to contest with the Delaware & Hudson, lessor, the saving of refunding at a reduced rate of interest had some reflection in the stock of the latter. The sagging tendency of the market was eomewhat emphasized by the flurry In call money to 6M1 per cent late in the day. At the same time money continues to go to the in terior in large amounts on the express move "ment. The shipment of $3,000,000 to Toronto to fortify the banks there is also against the local banks-. The couree of the foreign ex change market this week has indicated a check to the heavy remittances in payment of foreign indebtedness maturing and this would carry with it a cessation of the new borrowing from local banks to meet those foreign payments. Today's weekly statement of the Imperial Rank of Germany showed substantial recupera tion from the depleted resources caused by the October 1 settlements, and the Bank of Eng land added considerable to its bullion holdings. The downward course of sterling exchange In this market, however, is checked. The statement of our foreign trade for Sep tember issued by the Bureau of Statistics at Washington was scanned with attention for Its bearing on the exchange situation. The $3,000,000 increase in export for the month, due to manufactured exports, is contrasted with an expansion of less than $1,000,000 in imports, the large import movement having et in by this time last year. The Increase of $2,600,000 in the excess of value of exports for the month, compared with last year, must be regarded as but a moderate contribution to the expanded measure of our foreign borrowings for the liquidation of .which merchandise ex-, ports are relied upon. Moreover, the excess of gold imports for the month rose to $29,141,010 compared with $4,130,788 last year, the differ ence representing a reduction of our credit supply with foreign markets. The stock mar ket closed easy with little recovery from the late decline. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value, $2,088,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.
