15 DRIED FRUITS FIRM ining Co. iullfrog Rush Rumor of Corner on California Evaporated Apples. PRICE ADVANCES SHARPLY THIS MOKXLNG ORECJOMAX, SATURDAY, JNO VE31BKK 1U, 1U06. Bullfrog Rush M Mining Co. Strong Export Demand for the Fruit In the East Oregon Prune Crop Being Cleaned Up Itapidly. Practically all lines of dried fruits show much firmness, but the greatest strength is In tile apple market. Advices from the East, say that the export demand there is strong and that higher prices are predicted. On top of this comes a rumor from Cali fornia of a corner in the apple market by packers, who have advanced the price 1 ;ent in two days. These developments have caused great interest In the local situ ation, as values in this state will be af fected sympathetically. Oregon has a fine crop of dried apples this year, and the holders confidently expect an Improvement In prices. Prunes are also looking somewhat better all along the line. Stocks are being cleaned up fast and very few desirable Idts re main in growers' hands In Oregon. The Job bing trade is also nearly over, and it is merely a question now of packing and ship ping the remainder of the crop. Advices received from San Jose are to the effect that several of the large packers had prac tically cornered the market for Santa Clara prunes by liberal purchases from growers, which they were storing in San Jose. It was said, that these packers are now holding about 25 per cent more stocks than would he called for by the normal requirements. .lkes by wire from Sonoma County were that practically all of the stock In growers' hands thero has been cleaned up. I'l.KXTY OF HOI'S ARE OFFERED. Crimen Now Show More Desire to Pell lmdon Market Declines. Hop dealers report It easier to buy in this state than sell In toe East. Growers' views In many cases have been lowered, but the llca:i of "the Eastern trade have been re durrt to an even greater extent, and there Is still a margin between the prices of buyers ami Kellers that prevents much business. Growers do not feel like sacrificing their h.ips In the face of the short English crop, but Incy.src that If they sell at all, they iuut do it at the unsatlsfactpry prices that are offered them. Pome of them who are fln-imlully able to. hold will do so until tv.'. :iiK. when It Is hoped that the scarcity of liony. will have , affected prices, but the great majority will find it necessary to re n'lz? on their crops before the year ends. It .an he truthfully said that the dealers of I'i'i-tland and Salem are doing what they can to hold the market up, but it is a hope less task when nearly all the other mar kets of the world are weak and depressed. New York, alone, of the great hop centers, is showing strength, the strong buying of Brewer Busch having lifted that market cent or two. The principal activity in this state yester day was In the Aurora section, where the growers showed much eagerness to sell. The prices paid there ranged from 12 to 14Vi cents. The most important was made by a Chinese lessee on the Crisell place, who sold 112 bales to John Carmichael at 14 i.i cents. Another sale in Aurpra was the Fred Gclsy lot of 5 bales, for which l.achmund & Pincus paid 14 cents. Klaber. Wolf & Netter bought the Newton 4 Downing lot of 09 bales at Whltson at 15 cents, and several other lots, all export goods. Mrs. Edith Linton, of Eugene, sold 100 bales at 134 cents, but the name of the buyer was not learned. A report from Grant's Pass said that Horst bought 50 bales from Henry rtuch. also another lot of 83 bales earlier In the week at the same price. A cable from Thomas Ironmonger, re ceived yesterday by Isaac Pincus & Sons, said: "The London market has declined 10s. Very little doing, buyers holding off waiting for lower prices." The Continental market was quiet but steady. Steamer Vegetables Delayed. Trading In fresh produce was only fair ye.steiday, so far as city business was con cerned, but country orders were good. There were no car lot receipts. The steamer Roanoke, due today, has a lot of California truck, consisting of sprouts, peppers, - to matoes, peas, beans, persimmons, pome grunatcs and grape fruit. Four cars of bananas are duo today. Sweet potatoes are scarce and the market is practically bare of oranges. Poultry Market Clows Weak. As receipts of poultry were light yester day, stocks were practically cleaned up In spite or' the light demand. The market, however, doted easy. Thre were no changes In the egg market. Hutter is moving out freely and as the supply of cream has been checked some what, the tone of tho market Is steadier. Sharp Advances In Fish, Sharp advances are reported from the East in practically all grades of canned and salted fish, owing to the phenomenally short catch on both shores of the Atlantic. Many orders cannot be confirmed on sar dines and sprats and in some cases where the orders have been confirmed they can not be filled. ' 1 PORTLAND QUOTATIONS. Grain, Flour, Feed, Kte.

TO THE PUBLIC: We desire to state that the use of our names in the 'advertisement of the so-called Union Securities Company of Nevada as directors of the the Bull frog Rush Mining Company, in which it is stated the six million dollars' worth of ore is already blocked out in this property, is unauthorized, and that, according to our best information, the statement is absolutely and un qualifiedly false. - , The property is unquestionably a splendid prospect, and during the, course of its early development held out great hopes of becoming a great mine, but at this time the best average assays obtained in the lower workings are from sixty cents to one dollar per ton. There is a large quantity of ore that has been opened up in the winze and upper tunnels which gives asays' of from fifteen to thirty-five dollars per ton, but this, in itself, after deducting the cost of mining and milling, does not establish for this property a valua tion of $825,000. which, on a capitalization of 1,500,000 shares, at the par value of one dollar, offered at fifty-five cents per share, would be the case. We retain our positions on the directorate of the Bullfrog Rush Mining Company for the piesent, 8, in order to protect important interests, but we warn anybody who intends investing in the stock of the Bullfrog Rush Min ing Company that if he does so it is at his own risk, nor do we in any way indorse anv other venture of the United Security Company of Nevada, of whose responsibility we know nothing.

Additional Relief by Treasury De partment Expected Poor Bank Statement Looked For. NEW YORK, Nov. 9. Today's stock mar ket was of much the same character aa that of yesterday. Better resistance was shown, however, to depression,. In spite of the aggravation of the money stringency. Money on call went to 12 per cent quite, early In the day and to 15 per cent before the close. The strength of the time loan market was also Increased and the payment of premiums over the legal Interest rate ex tended in some cases to loans for the six months' period. Loans for 60 and 00 days were on a 7 per cent basis. The .expectation became general that a weak showing would be made by the banks In the weekly statement tomorrow. The outgo to the Interior has gone on this week and with the absorption by the sub-Treasury promises to diminish the cash reserves of the banks by between J2.000.00u and $3,000,000. It Is to the change in the local market, however, to which most importance Is attached. The action of the money mar ket for the last day or two has suggested that the banks are beginning to feel at last the pressure upon their resources, due 'to the transfer of loans from London to this market In connection with the large reduc tion -In the account of American securities supposed to have taken place in London at the last stock market settlement. It has been the subject of puzzled conjecture In the financial district that no effect has been shown on the loan Item of the banks In the last two statements as & result of thla shift ing process from London to this market, fe'o far contrary to expeotatlon was the bank showing in the last two weeks, that there were not lacking those who maintained today that tomorrow's statement would show a continued contraction In the loan item. There was a. marked difference tn the tone of the money market today, however, from that on the days preceding the former bank statements. Northern Pacific was again a point of resistance to tho depression In the market, with no news beyond the reiteration of the rumor of a coming "melon cutting." The report of the determination to capitalize the Pullman surplus and to distribute It to stockholders gave some sympathetic cre dence to the Northern Pacific report. Pull man rose sharply at the opening, but fell violently afterward. Reports were circulated of Intended resistance to the form of tho proposed bonus to stockholders on the part of an organized majority. American Woolen extended Its breaks of yesterday on account of the decision to increase the Issue of pre ferred stock. This stock subsequently ral lied. The resistance to the decline and the tendency toward recovery were due to the positiveness with which reports were made that additional relief for the money market by the Treasury Dipartment had been de termined upon. It was even asserted that the Secretary of the Treasury was in the financial district. These reports failed of conllrmation. The foreign exchange rates were affected by the local money situation and declined in spite of the rise in sterling rates both at Paris and at Berlin. The private discount rate also rose at Psris. The week's exports of grain showed a material decline from those of last ,wcek, amounting to :::;7.1;i bushels in the case of wheat and to 4"J!1,207 bushels in the case of corn. The recovery in the money rate, after easing off. unsettled the closing, which was heavy and lifeless, and left net changes mixed. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $1,:I44.000. United States bonds were un changed on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Amalgamated Cop. 45. Coo lllvi 110 110T6 Am, Car & Found, o.too 43 43' 4:jv do preferred lol Am.
