v BUTTER IS UP AGAIN
City Creameries Advance Price
21-2 Cents.
QUOTATION NQJ GENERAL
Demand Holds Steady While Supply
Is Decreasing Condition of the
Hop Crop Very Active
Trade in Fruits.
An advance of 5 cents a roll In city
creamery quotation! was announced yester
day morning. Three of the city creameries
raised thetr prices to 32 cents a pound,
and the others will be In line today or to
morrow. The advance has been expected by the
trade for several days, though It is said that
with moat of the creameries no shortage
has existed. Some, in fact, ha-ve been rather
long on butter, and theBe, doubtless, do not
take kindly to the change.
The principal reason for the new price
put out yesterday morning was said to be
the continuance of a strong Alaska demand
in the fac of a seasonable decrease In the
cream supply. Pasturage is becoming poor,
and for the next two months harvesting ope
ration and hop pickinp in the country will
not only lessen the supply of cream, but wilt
also cause a. demand on this market for
vti utter to supply these sections. In addition
to these factors, the Eastern butter market
has taken on a stronger tone, private wires
yesterday quoting 25 cents as the lowest
price at which the best butter was offered.
There was no change in the Front street
situation, where the supply and demand
were about eq,ual, but it is probable that
the higher city creamery prices will soon
have an effect on outside butter quotations.
HOT WAVE HELPED THE HOP CROP.
Killed Off the Vermin and Dried I'd the
Honey Pew.
Local bop dealers who visited the country
Sunday report that the hot wave of last
week was of inestimable benefit to the grow
ing crop by killing off practically all the lice
and drying up the honey dew. The members
of the trade continue to be wide In their
estimates of the coming yield, their figures
ranging all the way from J35.000 to 160.000
bales. The market rules quiet, botfi for spot
goods and contracts.
A dispatch from' Tacoma contains the fol
lowing news of English hop conditions:
Reports from the English hopyards are
more encouraging for the American growers,
and they are feeling a little better over the
outlook. The prospects are not so bright
now in England.
One of the local hop firms cabled its Lon
don correspondent asking for an estimate of
the. English crop and about the expectations
there. The. following reply was received:
"Crop prospects are uncertain. Growers are
alarmed at lice. Hops are backward. Un
der the most favorable conditions crop prom
ises to be 73 per cent larger than last year.
The latest issue of the Waterville (N- Y.)
Times says of the crop in that section:
The yards which have looked promising
from the beginning still look fine. The early
hops are In blow and the yards are free from
vermin of all kinds. The hopgrowers' picnic,
which is held each year, was at Sylvan
Beach on Saturday. The event calls out a
large aggregation of men. interested in hop
culture. . Whwi asked regarding the pros
pects for the hop crop this year, the men
seemed unanimous in the opinion that there
would be but three-quarters of a crop har
vested this year. A pcneral report has been
made of a good condition of the crop over
the whole state, . but evidently from the
statement of the men Saturday, the crop in
this section is less than the average. In
Bourkvllle the yards ar a little better than
in the rest of this and Madison counties.
Waterville strikes about the general average
with the rest of the district. Many of the
smaller growers are discontinuing the grow
lnv of the hops, it was stated, because the
cost of the harvesting often exceeds the sum'
which the goods bring In.

PLENTY OF FRUIT ON THE STREET.
Watermelons, Cantaloupes and Orchard Va
rieties in Abundance.
Yesterday's receipts of fruit included five
cars of .bananas, three of cantaloupes, four
of watermelons and two of peaches, besides
a large quantity of small fruit received by
express. A considerable number of other
cars of fruit are rolling and will arrive in
trie course of the week.
The market became overstocked with
cantaloupes, and to prevent a further de
cllne it was necessary to pass on a portion
of the fruit to the Sound. A good many of
the California cantaloupes came from the
Corning section. The Dalles also sent in a
good supply, which Tanged In price from
5. 'J 5 ft 2 50 per crate. The California cants
sold from $2 to 2.50, according to quality.
The two cars of California Crawfords
that were expected proved to be Elbert as.
They were offered at $1.25(9' 1.40 per box.
The bananas were in fair condition. Grapes
were 'more plentiful and there was a strong
demand for them at 1.50(E?2 per box- Crab
apples were also in better supply and
brought 5060 cents
Heavy receipts of tomatoes are reported
and prices are consequently low, good stock
being quoted at 50?75 cents per box. The
market is glutted with cucumbers of all
sorts. Green peppers are on hand from The
Dalles at 101? 12 cents per pound and okra
sell" at the same price.
Long nd Short on Egg.
Front' street egg handler, are about
equally -divided In their opinion as to the
condition of the market. Some of them
have more eggs than they can dispose of.
while others are short. Quality la still the
main factor in the situation. There Is a
steady demand for No. 1 stock and none at
all for secoads.
A little poultry came In and it moved
readily at former quotations.
' The cheese market was strong with sup
plies light.

EFFECT ON STOCK. MARKET
Government's Policy Causes Dead
lock in Securing Capital for En
. terprises Strained Money
Situation Aggravated.
NEW YORK, Aug. 5. The dullness of the
stock market was greatly Intensified today.
This proved to be the principareffect of the
news developments which the market had to
face this morning, although there was some
active selling at the opening based on
them, and at the closing. Influenced by the
weakness of United States Steel, until tjie
decline became precipitate. There was little
disposition .to support the market, ' and the
break in prices, in consequence, was sharp.
The volume of the selling proved light, aud
after this sivasmodic price readjustment,
support appeared, and some subsequent re
covery. During the noon hour the total
transactions were lens than 7000 shares of
all stocks, a rate of lethargy rarely seen
at The stock exchange.
Although the levying of maximum penal
ties on the Standard Oil Company or the
convictions for rebating had been dis
cussed as a possibility and had figured
in the speculation on Friday, the actual sen
tence of the court was not known In Wall
street on Saturday in time to afford oppor
tunity for market operations based on- IX.
The sentiment of the mcident was Increased
by the publication Monday of the report
of the Commissioner of Corporations, ar
raigning the Standard Oil Company for Its
business methods and Its exorbitant profits.
The effect was to revive the- conviction of
the determination of the Federal Adminis
tration to push the prosecutions of corpo
rations with unabated vigor. From the
viewpoint of capital, great injustice has
bee'n attributed to this course, causing the
deadlock .In securing capital for. enterprises.
Speculative sentiment was discouraged ' by
the prospect offered of that factor being
brought Into prominence again.
Saturday's, bank statement offered small
encouragoment for more cheerful views of
the money outlook. It is expected that loss
of cash last week based on the known
movements of money which failed of reflec
tion in the bank statement, will be thrown
over into' this week's statements Reports
from the interior are of a sustained demand
for money, which is likely to increase at
an early date with the beginning of the
marketing of the crops.
Traffic officials of the railroads report
the merchandise movement well kept up,
but the movement of grain thus far ts re
ported disappointingly small. A number of
net earnings of railroads for June were re
ported during the day, and some of the
stocks of the. companies reporting suffered
sharp declines. In general, the expansion
of operating expenses continues so great
as' to affect the net showing unfavorably.
Reports of a threatened miners' strike in
the Pennsylvania coal regions were a minDr
factor of depression. ' The labor situation
In the Lake Superior iron region was said
to be working out satisfactorily, and a
point was made of the large part played by
the plans for a new steel rail company in
the falling off of July orders of the United
States Steel Corporation. The stock weak
ened, however, late in the day and re
newed the weakness in the general list aftsr
some recovery from the- first decline had been
felt. The prices were lower late in the day.
losses running between .3 and 4 points for
Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, St, Paul,
Reading and American Smelting, and 1 to
8 points In the active list generally.
The bond market was more actively easy
today, and declines .were general in the
Issues that usually figure In the day-to-day
trading. Total sales, par value, $754,000.
United States 4s declined per cent on
call.

DROP OF TWO CENTS
Rapid Increase of Receipts
Weakens Wheat.
EASY MOST OF THE DAY
Depression in Price at Chicago Is
Aided by the Sharp Slump in '
Oats, Caused by the ..
Heavy Selling.
CHICAGO. Aug. 5. An increase In the vis
ible supply of grain and primary receipts
caused a decline of almost 2c in the price
of wheat In the local market today. The
market opened weak because of favorable
weather in the Northwest for the growing
crop. Within the first 15 minutes of trading
prices advanced moderately In sympathy with
a eharp upturn in oats, but the stronger tone
soon gave way to renewed weakness, Which
endured for the remainder of .the session. The
heavy tone was" due largely to the rapidly in
creasing receipts of new wheat, although a
severe slump in oats added to the weakness.
The market closed weak and near the lowest.
September opened ft to ftc lower, at 91 to
92ftc, advanced to 92ftti92lsic and then de
clined to 90C The close was at 9101ftc.
The corn market was strong early in the
day, but later prices eased off and the greater
part of the gain was loM. The break In oats
brought out liberal realizing sales during the
last half of the session. The market closed
steady. September opened unchanged to ftc
lower at 5454c, advanced to 55c and
closed at 55ftn55c - .
Intense excitement marked the opening of
the oats market and the nrxt price, showed
sharp advances. Before trading commenced
the pit was' overflowing with, traders and
brokera, who had orders to buy at the market
price. The filling of these orders sent prices
up more than 1 cent above the close of Satur
day. The buying was led by a number of
bulls, who have been giving the market active
support during the last few weeke. The mar
ket became very weak late In the day on
profit-taking sales and closed weak, although
prices were a trifle above the close of Satur
day. September oats opened ftSfte to
c higher at 44ft to 44c, advanced to 48fto
and then declined to 43ftc. The close was at
44c. .
Provisions were weak the greater part of
the day on dealings by local packers.. At the
close pork was off 2ftc. lard was 6c lower
and ribs were 7ftc down.

Held on suspicion are James, Jacob
and Bertha Markowitz, brothers and sis
ter of the dead girl. The crime occurred
at a very-short, distance . from where
Dlna Gllman was assaulted and mur
dered some months ago.
Gordon, also known as "Cohan," went
out walking along a lonely road near the
National Soldiers' nome yesterday. He
was accompanied by. Anna Markowitz
and her younger sister, Bertha. They
had walked to a lonely spot when the
crime was committed. What took them
to this place has, up- to this time, not
clearly developed. The story of Bertha
when she rushed breathless and terror
stricken to the Soldiers' Home, was that
while her sister. Young Gordon and her
self were strolling along a secluded path
a highwayman slipped unhearu behind
Gordon and struck him with a black
jack. Gordon, she said, turned about
and as he did so, the highwayman shot
him In the stomacn.
As Gordon fell, she says, the man made
a dash for either herself or her sister. She
ran screaming from the scene In terror,
leaving her elder slater, Anna, to her fate.
Bertha said she did not Btop until she
reached the Soldiers' Home, where she
gave the alarm.
The Sheriff was notified and a posse
formed. They found Gordon almost dead.
A trail showed where Anna had been
dragged. They followed the path and
came upon the body of the girl lying In
the weeds. Her clothing had been near
ly torn from the body. The arms were
crowded down over the eyes, as if to
shut out a terrible picture. There were
evidences of a fearful struggle and of an
assault. The girl was dead from strangu
lation. The Markowitz brothers and Bertha
later called at police headquarters to see
what had been learned about the crime.
Questioned, the brothers are said to have
admitted that their mother objected to
further attentions being paid by Gordon
to Anna. The brothers would not deny
that they had followed their sisters, Anna
and Bertha, into the woods when they
went with Gordon.
FOREST INCOME DOUBLES
Over Million and Halt for Fiscal
Year Oregon Stands High.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Aug. 5. The total receipts from
National forests for the fiscal year ended
June SO, 1907, were $1,529,917. more than
double the receipts for the preceding fis
cal year. Under the Fulton amendment to
the agricultural appropriation bill, 10 per
cent of this total goes to the respective
states for use in maintaining schools and
public county roads.
These receipts are derived from the sale
of timber, the use of the range, etc. The
Forest Service, In calling attention to the
receipts, states that with few exceptions
the heaviest receipts come from states
where, by act of Congress, no more forest
reserves can be created.
The total receipts in Oregon last year
were $139,808, of which 10 per cent goes to
the various counties tn which reserves are
located. The Washington receipts were
$37,315, and In Idaho the total was $191,229.
