17 THE -MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY. MARCH 26, 1907. TRUCK IS SCARCE No More California Vegetables Until Friday. STEAMER LOT CLEANED UP Shippers Buying Potatoes Freely at Higher Prices, but Outlet Is Hard to Get Slow Trading in the Hop Market. Portland will have something of a vege table famine this week. Stocks had run low when the steamer goods were distrib uted yesterday, and as the tiantlty brought up was not heavy, the bulk of it was cleaned out as soon as it was put on sale. The next t earner is not due until Friday, and as there is no rail communication with the South, this market must depend on the few loeal varieties arriving for Its supply. Prices were Arm all through the Hat and seine descriptions were quoted higher. Com mon asparagus, though fairly plentiful, ad vanced to 1214 c and fancy bunch asparagus sold readily at 15c Celery, of which there wan a carload on the boat, was quoted up to $i. Rhubarb was also higher. A car of bananas came in over the north ern route and found a good market await- Ins it. No other fruit was received. There ro enough oranges in town to last a few d ays. LIGHT TRADING IN HOP MARKET. JkfcNeff Get Lblmann Agency for Western Washington. The hop market was quiet yesterday and the only buyers known to be operating were lWcKinley Mitchell and Ed. C. Warren. Mr. Mitchell bought three Iota aggregating 121 bales at Sherwood at 8 Mr cents. One was a M-bale lot grown by William ' Weston and another Herman Schmidt's lot of 32 bales. Mr. Herren bought 66 bales from Louis Kell, S6 bales from Henry Ehlen and 26 bale from A. Krause, all of Aurora, The price was said to be 10 or 10 cents. George Dorcas, while in Portland Saturday, completed arrangements with Simon TJhlmann, of New York, whereby McNeff Bros., of Puy allup, will act as agents In Western Washing ton of the firm of S. & F. XJhlmann. H. L, Crtder. of Dallas, writes to The Ore- gonlan that in the list of hops left in growers' hands, recently printed in this paper, Dallas was credited with but 50 bales, whereas there were at least 630 bales in the warehouse there. The error was discovered by hopmen later, and in a revision of the list brought down to yesterday it was found there are till about 682 bales unsold in that section. It la probable that when the final lists have been checked over by all the dealers,' the total surplus will prove to be larger than was expected. The Eastern hop trade is very much inter ested in the operations of Paul R. G. ILorst, which are as great a mystery there as here, The New York Journal of Commerce of re cent date says; "Various rumors are afloat, chief among them being that the buyer Is backed by Western capitalist; that he is backed by local bankers and that he Is buying for some of the large English brewers. Whatever purpose he may be operating for, he Is certainly taking on a great many hops, and It Is a matter of surprise to the trade that the market has not advanced to a marked extent." In a succeeding issue that paper said: " 'Owing to the recent buying here and In Oregon, the market has a steady undertone, but pricesi do not advance aft it is believed they should in view of these purchases. For this reason the opinion prevails in some quar tern that there are more hops on the Coast than Is generally believed." BUYERS ARE A-FTER POTATOES. Shippers Are Loading Up, Although Trans portation Is Not Easy. Notwithstanding the difficulty of making potato shipments to California, where high prices are prevailing as a result of the rail road blockade, buyers In this section are still vigorously at work and In their competition to secure potatoes have eent the price higher than It has been any time this season. Choice stock Is being bought up at from $1.25 to $140 and for fancy lots as high as $1.75 Is being offered. The docks are full of potatoes awaiting ship ment to San Francisco, but only a compara tively small part of the accumulation Is go ing through. It is estimated that the Colum bia tonight will not take over 3000 sacks and only a small quantity can And space on the Roanoke. About two cars of onions will also go out by boat ton U tit. Oregon onions reached the 2-cent mark In San Francisco yesterday. BITTER IS AS SCARCE AS EVER. Movement From California Interrupted by the Blockade. The recent advance In the butter market has not brought about much relief to the local trade, as the tying up of the railroad has prevented the bringing in of California butter by rail. Some butter will be received by steamer, but the arrivals of outside product will not be frequent until the Southern Pacific ia again in commission. In the meantime, city and Valley brands are scarce and the market rules very firm. Arrivals of eggs were small yesterday and with a better demand the market stiffened up. The Impression prevail that prices will ease off again after Easter. Bank Clearings Bank clearances of the loading cities of the Northwest yesterday were Clearings. Balances.

NATURAL EFFECT ON PRICES Collapse of the London Metal Mar kets Is One of the Most De pressing Factors in the Speculation. NEW YORK, March 25. Today's stock market defies any clear analysis. The sur face facts upon which there is no room for dispute are that there was an unbridled Im pulse to sell securities and an almost entire paralysis of demand. The consequences to prices were such as might be imagined. That any urgent necessity was forcing holders of securities to part with them did not appear from any facts known to the public. The banks were not calling loans and the with drawal of credits by money-lenders could not be ascribed as the Impelling cause of the slump. Of course, the violent decline and the shrinkaKa in collateral caused a read justment constantly of loans and this shrinkage, of course, forced vulnerable hold ings upon the market In the course or. tne fall. But stringency of money was not the primary cause' in forcing liquidation. So far as the dread of failures at the coming stock market settlement in London and Ber lin was concerned, the situation was admit tedly Improved over last week. Early prices of Americans reported from London, showed some violent rebounds from Saturday's closing- level here," and Berlin was reported to be buying American securi ties In London. Reassuring advices 'from the highest quarters in the financial world abroad were received as to the improve ment in the situation. Berlin was alleged to have completed necessary arrangements for the approaching settlement which has been the dreaded point. Rumors of an important bouse in London in financial difficulties were said to be disproved by the most careful in vestigation. Large orders were expected in this market to buy stocks for foreign ac count, but had hardly more than a momen tary effect on the prices. One particular In which London did offer an acutely depressing factor was in the dis order in her metal markets. Obpper and tin both showed heavy declines and specula tive commitments in the copper market were said to be involved. The large spec a latioR In copper securities in this market had been based upon the confident assump tion of better conditions in the metal mar ket. This confidence was shaken and the metal industrials proved extremely vulner able as a consequence. Including United States Steel stocks. Large pooled holdings of these securities were believed to be touched by the demoralized declines. Hold ers of Amalgamated Copper and of United States Steel seemed to be suddenly awak ened to the recollection of past perform ances In those securities following the quick transformation from the condition of great prosperity in their trades to acute depres sion and rapid shrinkage of earnings. The operations of the bear contingent in the market are believed to have taken upon the nroportions of a saturnalia. Individual operations upon the short side in at least one instance were believed to be of prodi gious proportions. The operations seemed to be entirely unopposed on behalf of the con trollers or outsiders in any property. A striking feature of the situation seemed to be the cons-n"us among the larger interests that supporting measures would be futile to check the selling' frenzy. Engagements of gold In London for Im port and additional latitude allowed by the Secretary of the Treasury in the security for Government deposits, although promis ing to help the money market through. were entirely Ignored. 'Influential men In the banking world did not hesitate to charac terize the selling as prompted by "Insane fear. Information from commission houses of the terms on which some of the selling orders were couched, gave color of this characterization. Fears of a coming pros tration of business and of the stripping of powers of management and control from corporations were alleged as principal grounds for the alarm. It was late In the day before prices reached the lowest level, but the actual clos ing reflected a nervous feeling among shorts In the feverish rebounds caused by their rush to take pronts. Bonds were weak but not notably active. Total sales, par value. $3,392,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Low.
