It is etill on export proposition, but It Is believed that Karitern order will soon become a factor. With a good demand from the Ea.it, primes and th; lower graded will begin to find favor. At ttu- present time it is only choice shipping qualities that are being bought up. These command the highest going prices. There were rumors current yesterday that over 1G cents had been paid and it was said here that Burch. of Rickreall. had refused 17 cents. At Salem the report was thut he had i been offered 'j ct-nt better, Hn aftornoon die . patuh from that city eaid that iichmund an nounced he had order fur liMHl bales of choice hops at 17 cents. If any of the Portland deal- era were preparing to rai.se the limit, they t were nnt giving their business away. Several lut were purchased during the day by Kluber, M'olf & Net tor, among them the Br.da lot of 11.1 bales at Pllverton. the Kuclie and Aleher lots of 170 bales at Woodburn. and the Arel lot of I4 bales at Gervals. Krebs Bros, were ivportwd to have made purchases In the For est Grove section. There were rumors that ttte Fry it & Williams lot at Carlton had been toid for ltl'i cents. The following dispatch was received from . Salrm last night : "Salem, Or., Oct. 22. (Special.) The hop market at Salem took on a Mill firmer tone today when reports were received from sev eral sources at Dallas that 17 Vi cents was re fused today by Sam Burch, who has a crop of 324 bales of choice hops. The offer was made by Carmiihacl, representing AVigan, ltlehardon & Co., of London. This price prob ably marks the extreme top of the market to day, however, for the Burch crop is of extra quality. Seventeen cents is being offered free ly by three firms Wigan, Richardson & Co., Klaber. Wolf & Netter and Louis Lachmund & Co." In the past few days Carmichael has bought In the neighborhood of 2(X)0 bales of hops for export. Among the crops bought by him were the Foster crop, 248 bales; the Bell crop, 147 bale; the Plankfngton crop, 174 bales; Lee Jtrothes. 116 bales, all of Perrydale; the Kuens ting crop, 74 bales, at Gcrvais; the Morley crop, 58 balce, at Silverton; the Keding Bros.' crop, 114 bales, at Mt. Angel, all at 10 cents." The report In the local market was 'that bolh the Foster and Morley lota were secured at 15 cents. However, the market la exceed ingl y st rang and the growers, at least, are confident that the trend is upward. Yesterday's foreign advices were exceedingly satisfactory. A London cable reported re newed inquiry and a German cable announced an advance of 2 cents in the German market, due to the exceptionally heavy buying of choice tiermans for London account. Purchases of 100 bale of California hops were reported in a wire received in the after noon. A dispatch from Washington stated that there had been heavy buying of the lver Srade of Western Wa-htntcn. BITTKH MOVKS OCT WELL. I J ggs In Jom Supply and SU-udy Improve ment in Imiltry Expected The prospects are for a better poultry mar- ket this week, unless receipts should prove to I be heavy. 1 Errs were In good supply yesterday and held Steady. Butter quotations were urn-harmed. On Front street stock were large and the tone of the market was reported weak. The- city cream series reported a good movement. Some of the Jj'ortland companies. It la understood, are pre fparlng to advance to SJ'i cents, to which figure one local establishment went some time ri. The creamery at Damascus is also quot ing that price, Country store butter finds a food market, but arrivals are as yet limited. Plenty of Grape. The week opened tip actively in the fruit nd vegetable market. A large shipment of ; rapes, about 4K crates, arrived by express from California. Tokays and Cornlchons rought an average price of $1.26 and Thomp son's seedless $1.50. The grapes received by afteamer were not In good condition. One car tf green Valencia oranges and one car of awect potatoes also arrlvrd. Local vegetables Of all kinds were In good supply. Wonny Apples Condemned. Twenty boxes of wormy apples were con demned on Front street yesterday by County Fruit Inspector Delch. They were shipped In from Forest Grove and Wheatland. There are foma apple shippers in the country . who think the Inspector's duties are confined to peeping scaly fruit out of this market. He find wormy applet just as obnoxious as those jinfected with San Jose scale. Strong Iemand for Fancy Potatoes, i A strong shipping demand continues for the cst Oregon Burbar.k potatoes, and buyers are paying $1 to $110 for extra fancy lots. They report that the choicest kinds are very drffi fcult to find now. It W the opinion of the rade that good prices are likely to prevail intil the second crop begins to come in. ' Bunk Clearing.

STRONG Operators Scramble to Buy Back Stocks That They Sold at a Sacrifice Saturday Money Conditions Improve, NEW YORK. Oct. 22. There was a vio lent rebound in prices of stocks today which went far to wipe out the heavy declines of Friday and Saturday. The interval after the market closed on Saturday In a state of. de moralization, and when it opened today showed some important developments and gave rise to rumors of .others of still great er importance. The consequence was a re vulsion In sentiment which sent operators scrambling to buy stocks who had made desperate efforts to sell them at any price on Saturday. Results of the Bank of England's six per cent" discount rate In the world's mar kets were much less than were feared. In this market, call money, lending at 7 per cent, fell back promptly to 6 per cent, and later in the day to considerably below thai point. Very confident hopes were engendered, however, that relief measures would be forthcoming. The nature of this relief was left mostly in the realm of conjecture dur ing the day, although there was credible authority lor the current belief. The first of such measures to receieve attention was the rumored agreement of the Bank ot France to transfer as a loan $30,000,000 to $40,000,000 to- the Bank of England. There is great confidence that the Bank of France could finance bills maturing in the imme diate future in London and secure the privi lege of renewal for a defined period. Tnis had something to do with this sentiment. The failure of a Stock Exchange member was without ' effect on the market. The day's extreme advance of in Anaconda, 7 In Northern Pacific, 4hit in Reading and Northern Pacific, aA In Union Pacific, St. Paul, Amalgamated Copper and Smelting and 1 to 3 points- in many other active stocks served to indicate the Important ex tent of the recovery from last week's se vere losses. The market closed strong with the gains well maintained. Bonds were firm. Total sales (par value), $2,104 000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales.

S TRUST ULLIVA COMP ANY Begs to Announce that it is in the market for Eagle's Nest pairview Mining Company's stock and Lou Dillon Goldfield Mining Co.'s stock We bid 42V2 cents per share for Eagle's Nest Fairview Mining Company's shares in any sized blocks. If you have any of this stock you . desire to sell, notify us by wire of sales, attach your certificates to draft, and ship through the bank to us. The draft will be honored promptly upon reach ing us. We bid 32V2 cents for Lou Dillon Goldfield Mining Com pany's stock in any sized blocks. If you have shares in this company that you want to dispose of, notify us of sale to us by wire, attach certificates to draft and ship through your bank. -The draft will be promptly honored. We promoted these two companies during the past twenty days. Eagle's Nest treasury stock Was sold at 35 cents per share; Lou Dillon Goldfield treasury stock was offered for subscription and the allotment heavily oversubscribed at 30 cents per share. The Eagle's Nest Fairview Mining Company's estate at Fairview has improved so rapidly with development that there is a tremendous demand for the stock, and we can sell a great deal of the issue at prices much higher than we are now bidding for it. High-grade shipping ore has been en countered in the property, and if there is one thing more sure than another it is that the Eagle's Nest will develop into one -of the great bonanza silver-gold mines of the state and that the shares will continue to advance steadily until selling at par. ' If we had the treasury allotment of Lou Dillon Goldfield intact we could sell it within a few days. An unprecedented demand for this issue has developed, owing to the tremen-; dous mine showing the company's estate presents. Mining' men here are among the heaviest buyers of this stock. One of the most important developments on the property is the opening up of six feet of good ore by lessees on block No. 1. We are deluged with orders for Lou Dillon "at the market" and can sell many thousand shares at prices higher than our bid. WE DO NOT ESSAY TO CAJOLE STOCKHOLDERS OF THESE TWO COMPANIES INTO DISPOSING OF THEIR HOLDING. BUT IF THERE IS ANY OF EITHER STOCK FOR SALE, WE ARE ANXIOUS TO PROCURE IT. L M.

The tone of the Stock Exchange generally this morning -as more hopeful, operators having about concluded that the 6 per cent discount rate of the Bank of England would prove favorable in stemming the outflow of gold. -American securities had an exciting morn ing. Saturday's break in Wall Btreet caused a "heavy liquidation here, and there were many sales from the Continent. At the opening values were over a point below parity, but good support was soon forthcom ing, and there was quite a boom before noon, prices being rushed up two points from the lowest quotations, and the whole list prac tically recovered the parity loss. For In stance Union Pacific, which was offered at 184, rose to 187, and Canadian Pacific, which was offered at 176, went up to 179. 'Some good American buying orders helped the recovery, which also was aided by the report that the Bank of Fraace was, pre paring to assist the Bank of England to the extent of $30,000,000 to $40,000,000 In gold. All the pold available in the open market today. $1.2."0,OO0. was secured by the Bank of England. There was no competition on the part of the United States, and the price was reduced an eighth of a penny. Indicating the belief on the part of the bank that it will be able to bul!oup its reserve by securing the larger amount of the metal available next week. stocks on the Bourse today were 1 to 4 points lower during the first few hours, but later a better tone prevailed on London ad vices, and the losses were partially recovered.
