BUYERS DQ NOTHING
Boston Wool Men Are Inactive
in Eastern Oregon.
GROWERS ARE INDIFFERENT
Xo Business of Importance Kxpected
Before Scheduled Sales Days.
Shearing of Mohair Is
Delayed Somewhat.
No movf has reen made yet by either buy
er or pollers to open the wool market in
this state. Several representatives of Boston
houses are in Eastern Oregon, but none of
them has yet ac-ompllsh'd anything. While
they may succeed In picking up a fw lotM,
the changes aro tliat there will he n busi
ness of Importance prior to the scheduled
nlr days. Both growers and dealers ap
pear indifferent to the present quoted prices,
one regarding them too low and the other
too high. The prediction is freely made in
the trade that the market In the Valley will
open lower than last year.
The Eastern markets are dull, the large
quantity of clothing wools still unsold hav
ing a tendency to depress things. .The active
feature of the market at Boston Is the de
mand for imported stock. Summing up the
situation, the latest Issue of the Boston
Commercial Bulletin says:
The season in American wool now draw
ing to a close has not been a prosperous one.
On some of the supplies handled there has
been a loss, while others have netted only
a modest profit. Money 1 still high and
not very plentiful. Both buyers and seller3
are hampered on this account, though easier
conditions are expected after April 1. New
contracta are not, therefore, closed easily
nero In the East. All the leading consum
ers aro well covered, and can stay out of the
market for some time. In the meantime
dealers will be anxious to close out supplies
of old wool to make place for the new clip.
OREGON ATTT.ES ,IX LONDON.
Trice Realized on Southern Oregon New
tons Not Very Sat isf actor'.
Dennis & Sons, fruit brokers of London,
report the following prices on Southern Ore
gon Newtons sold about the middle of last
month :
Eden Valley orchard (E. J. Do Hart): 288
boxes 4 tier at lOs 6d.
Snowy Butte orchard (F. H. Hopkins): 62
boxes 90s, at 10s; 347 boxes 128s, at 10s;
108 boxes 173s. at lis.
9. I Bennett: 30 boxes 4 tier, at 10s.
J. C. Tore: 4 boxes 3 tier, at 0s 9d; 59
boxes 4' tier, at 10s.
Notwithstanding the lateness of the sea
son, the apples were In very good condition,
but prices cannot be considered satisfact
ory. A sale pries of 10s means about $1.30
f. o. b. Medford, after deducting all charges.
Including commissions.
Some frosted Newtons are now being mar
keted in England at very low prices, but
the above fruit fortunately escaped ffVst
damage and were good keepers.
TOO MANY HOTS TRODTJCED.
Mr. LUlenthal Revises His Former Estimate
of Consumption.
NEW YORK. March 30. (To the Editor.)
Referring enco more to our letter of Jan
uary 2.1. we write again to assure you of the
sincerity of our motives In advising grow
ers as we have done.
Tt seems now that our statement of facts
was conservative, that our estimate of the
crops was too low and that, above all things,
there Is little doubt of the Inaccuracy of the
statement of those who attempted to as
perse our suggestions; particularly in respect
to the "deficiency of 23.000 bales."
We atlll say to growers that, if their only
hope rests upon Providence destroying their
neighbors crops, they are working; upon un
sound economical principles.
The consumption of hops Is not bearing
out even our contention of a 10 per cent in
crease. The output of beer has grown since
September 1. 1906, In comparison with the
previous year, about $ per cent. If the 1907
crop is as large as the 1906, and coming,
as it will, upon a surplus of nine months'
supply in breweries, I can see but one re
. suit, and that Is abnormally low prices, un
less the growers retrench their culture and
Improve quality at the expense of quantity.
In tny opinion, the Pacific Coast growers
are growing too many hops by 25 per cent.
ALBERT LILIKNTHAL.
RK KIPTS OF EtSGS FALL OFF.
Hatty Supplies Are Not Sufficient to Meet
tho Iemaml.
For soma unaccountable reason arrivals
of ggs have fallen off and dealers are
again unable to fill all their orders. Ad
vices from the country are that stocks are
not being held back, nor Is there any buy
ing In the producing districts by other mar
kets than Portland, as was the case recent
ly. In View of this condition. Front street
prices were advanced yesterday. Quota
tions, as given by the leading dealers,
ranged all the way from IS to 20 cents.
though there were probably no actual sales
at the latter figure, and not many at the
former.
Chickens wore In very strong demand and
as the supply was limited, quotations were
sdvanced. Other kinds of poultry were not
in request. Chickens are now selling higher
In this market than turkeys.
There waa no change In the butter mar
ket, which was generally reported weak.
Cream receipts are constantly growing. On
Front street, supplies of butter are begin
ning to accumulate.
BEDROCK TRICES ON HOTS.
Yakima ; rower Makes Sale in Tacoma at
414 Cents, Medium.
TACOMA. Wash., April 5. (Special.)
Isaac O. Plncus & Sons, of Tacoma, have
purchased from C. 8. Mead, of North Yak
ima, 100 bales of good medium hops, paying
4 cents a pound. Not since 1895, when
the bottom dropped completely out of the
market and the growers were unable to get
more than cents a pound, have good me
dium Yakimas sold as low as i centa a
pound.
Mr. Mead Is one of the largest growers
In Eastern Washington, and the bulk of
his crop was sold to Isaac Pin us & Sons.
This lot of 100 bales was the last Mr. Mead
bad left
The hop market shows no signs of Im
provement anywhere. A cablegram received
by one of the local dealers from England
today read: "Market very dull; it has the
appearance of further decline." k
Prime hops are now quoted at 5 and 6
cents and medium at 4 and 5 cents.
WILL NEED OREtiON POTATOES.
-.in Vranclco Dealer Advises Farmers of
This State to Plant All They Can.
SAN FRANCISCO. April S. (To the Edi
tor.) As we know that The 1 Oregonian has
the biggest circulation among the farmers,
I write you thi to encourage the farmers
to plant alt the potatoes that they can. as
the Islands in California have all been
flooded except two. and the only country
that we can depend on for late potatoes
will be the State of Oregon.
We have Instructed George Herren, man
ager of our Portland branch, to Inform all
the farmers of the situation in California,
and. we hope that the farmers will, for their
own benefit and ours, plant all the potatoes
they can. as we will need them.
JAMES 11UXUNS COMPANY.
Only l ancT Potato Are Firm.
While fancy Oregon potatoes are turn in
the San Francisco market, the lower grades
are not faring so well. They are coming
Into competition with Eastern potatoes, of
which large quantities have been ordered
by the Californlans. As the Eastern mar
kets, are lower and stocks there are ex
cessive, it Is feared the Minnesota and Wis
consin shippers will also try to dump heavy
supplies on the Coast. According to San
Francisco wiresyesterday, fancy Oregon
Burbanks were in demand at $2.50. This
grade is scarce both in that market and In
Oregon. Ordinary Burbanks were slower
sale at $2.30 2.40.
Mohair Market Nominal.
Shearing of goats is delayed by the
stormy weather. The market, while firm.
is entirely nominal. In the East there is
but little trading in old stock, but this
has not affected values.. Mohair quotations

dition and one over the Southern route that
was dead ripe. The street was better sup
plied with asparagus, which lost some of
its firmness. Spinach from Walla Walla
w as also firmer. Other varieties of vege

PUBLIC TAKES HOLD
General Buying of Stocks at
the Advance.
TRADE IS ON LARGE SCALE
Harriman Pacifies Are in Special
Demand Improvement in the
Money Market Is the
Ix-ading Factor.
NEW YORK, April 5. Operations for the
advance were very aggressively pursued In
the stock market today, and wide additions
were made to yesterday's gains in prices. No
change in conditions from those of yester
day were apparent beyond the continuance
of the relaxing tendency in money. This
was, in fact, regarded as the keynote of the
situation and gave an impetus to the move
ment In stocks.
Commission houses reported a general re
vival of interest in the market on the part
of clients of the speculative class, an ele
ment, regarded from the stock market point
of view, as making up the general public,
whose entry Into the market is regarded
always as marking an Important stage in
speculation. The appearance of this ele
ment was taken advantage of, as usual, for
some heavy profit taking on the part of a
professional element, including board room
traders and those having first access to the
actual operations.
The manner in which this profit taking
again was absorbed proved Impressive to
speculative sentiment and was assumed to
Indicate the re-entry into the market of
some of the large financial powers which
have led great speculative movements in
the past. The size of Individual transac
tions, the congestion of the dealings In a
few special stocks, and the sensational
movements In such stocks gave the impres
sion of participation in the dealings by or
ganizations or Individuals possessed of re
sources far beyond the ordinary. The action
of the market under such forces takes on a
more or less axtifiicial character and reflects
active manipulation as well as genuine
marketing of the securities and Is for that
reason viewed with some suspicion.
Enormous operations centered in the Har
riman Pacifies and in Reading, suggesting
the resumption of market operations by
forces which havo been quiescent in the
trading for a considerable time. Southern
Pacific shared ful.y in the movement and
was regarded as giving the motivo for it in
its extraordinary showing of. net earnings
for February published yesterday. A re
bound In the price of copper in London was
responded to by the rise In Amalgamated
Copper here. Many other movements cen
tered around these or followed from their
influence. This made up a market of great
L variety and irregularity, the rise in fresh
stocks being taken advantage of to market
others.
The prospect of a very strong bank state
ment tomorrow was an influence in the deal
ings. The subtreasury has contributed to
the banks since the last statement was com
piled $12,175,000 and it is believed these
measures brought about the actual gain in
cash for the week, as the movement of cur
rency to and from the interior seems about
to have balanced. The easing of the local
money market has had the effect of check
ing the flow of currency to this center and
New York exchange at Chicago has fallen
back to par. It was announced today also
that all of the gold engaged in London last
Monday for shipment to this point had been
resold in that market.
Another helpful factor In the strength of
the market was the settlement without a
strike of the wage dispute on the Western
roads, it was significant of the chanted at
titude of the speculation that no accQunt
was taken of the increase In operating cost
to the railroads Involved In the advance in
wagee granted in the settlement. The large
selling to take profits during the day was
skillfully conducted, and the market closed
irregular and considerably below -the best
prices.
Bonds were strong. Total sales, par
value, $2,942,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

SEASONABLE WEATHER CAUSES
FRESH SPURT IX TRADE.
Distribution of Spring Merchandise
Is Up to Expectations Commod
ity Exchanges Again Normal.
NEW YORK. April 5. R. Dun A Co.'s
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
Trade responds to seasonable weather, the
distribution of Spring merchandise fully
equals sanguine expectations and country
merchants purchase liberally from whole
salers at leading centers.
In structural Iron, San Francisco contin
ues a feature, and much railway bridge
work is contemplated.
Country hides declined sharply and some
further concessions have occurred in packer
hides because of the indifference of tanners,
yet tho tone Is better on account of the
easier money market.
Commodity exchanges have resumed nor
mal conditions and prices show some recov
ery from the unsettled position after the
Easter holidays.
TRADE REPORTS HIGHLY FAVORABLE.
Full Order Books and Backward Deliveries
Are the Rule.
NEW YORK. April 5. Bradstreet's to
morrow will say:
Despite somo crosscurrents in the demand,
due mainly to the withdrawal of the Easter
stimulus to trade and a succeeding spell
of cold weather, the developments of the
week have been mainly favorable. Chief,
perhaps, of these Is the final satisfactory
settlement of the Western railroad men's
demands by arbitration. All reports as to
trade at wholesale and in Jobbing circles
In the first quarter are in a high degree
favorable. Reports from most leading in
dustries are still of full order books and of
backward deliveries. Leather and hides are
quiet.
Business failures In the United States for
the week ending April 4 number 137,
against 166 last weel: and 151 in the like
week of 1900. Canadian failures for the
week number 29, as against 21 last week
and 17 in this week a year ago.
Wheat (Including flour) exports from the
United States and Canada for the week end
ing April 4 aggregated 3,460.872 bushels,
against 2,135,816 this week a year ago. For
the past 40 weeks of the fiscal year the ex
ports are 134,051,917 bushels, against 108,
144,572 in 1905-19O6.
Bank Clearings.
NEW YORK. April 5. Bradstreet's Bank
Clearings Report for the week ending April 4
shows an aggregate of $3,066,411,000, as
against $3,083,200,000 last week and $3,134,-
603,000 in the corresponding week last year.
Canadian clearings for the week total $64,226,-
000, as against $75,350,000 last week and
