BUTTER IS UP ON
City Creamery Price Will Be
Advanced 21 -2c Today
LOCAL SUPPLY RUNS LOW
There May Be a Decline When the
Fall Kains Come,, but .Values
lu the Late Winter Will
' Be High Again.
The market price for city creamery but tor
win get as high as 37 i cents today. The
Haze) wood Creamery will put that price
into effect this morning. There ha been a
feeling in the trade for several days past'
that an advance was imminent, but most or
the firms were opposed to going any higher
now.. One of the smaller companies, th
Damascus Creamery.- raised its price to
cents several day ago, but the large city
creameries took no notice of the price then
In their transactions. Today's rise will,
however, generally affect the price of but
ter fat.
The i-eason' that 1b given for the advance
of 2fcents Is the shortage In the local but
ter eupply, the decrease in the cream out
put and the continued strong demand, both
locally and on shipping account. Several or
the creameries are known to have difficulty
In filling; their orders with top grade butte
and there is comparatively little secona
grade or Eastern butter to take Its place
' The new price would, of course, tend to in
vite shipments of Eastern butter, but wltn
the present wire trouble such business can
not be promptly attended to. However, It
Is only a question of time before a consid
erable supply of the 'Eastern article is on
hand, provided, of course, that the Chicago
market has not materially changed in th
lan few days. A reasonable quantity of
Eastern butter would be welcomed to make
up the deficiency in the home product, but
If much should come along it might have
effect on the market.
When the Fall grass appears, which willv
be in a month or six weeks. It is likely
that butter prices will decline temporarily,
but everything points to high values again
In the late Winter months, as reserve stocks
in' the East, carried against Winter re
quirements, are not as large as usual.
BREWERS' HOP STOCKS NOT LARGE.
W. J. Llvesley Says There Will Be a Good
Demand In the Early Market.
W. J. Llvesley, a hop man of Seattle, who
was in the 'city yesterday, says that clean
picked hops' of choice quality should bring
11 or 12 cents this Fall.- Mr. Llvesley has
been on the road as a hop salesman for the
past nine years and Is well qualified to talR
on the much discussed question of brewers
suppllesi He says that stocks carried by
the brewers at the- present time are not
large.
"The main thing for the Oregon grower
to do," said Mr. Llvesley, "Is to pick his
hops clean and turn out as good an arti
cle as possible. 1 believe, also, that the
grower who sells early will sell the best."
A cable was received ysterday from Iron
monger, of London, as follows: "Weather Is
unsettled, wet and cold and unfavorable for
growing crop. Market is dull with only few
buyers."
The only transaction In the Oregon mar
ket for some time past was reported yester
day. John Carmichael bought the Larsen
crop of 213 bales at Sitverton at 5 cents.
The following reports of the condition of
the New York crop are from the latest pa
pers of that, state; -
"Hop-growers-still report yards clean and
healthy, free from blight of all kinds ana
growing nlcoly. Picking will not begin be
fore the early part of September. The hot
weather of the'paet few days has been bene
ficial and the estimates of the yield are
not materially changed, about two-thirds of
last year's crop being the popular opinion."
Watervllle (N. Y.) Times. .
"Hops are coming on well but a Ugh
yield is certain. The quality promises to
be good at this time." Brookfleld Courier.
"The vines have made a good growth con
sidering the late start. They are not
heavy, hut if they fruit well will promise a
good crop. With a good heavy fruitage
they may yield three-quarters of last years
crop." Cooperstown Republican.
''The hop bine in this section Is- not as
thrifty as It was last jar. The recent wind
etorms have injured the blows, which wer
not as hardy as they have 'been In recent
years. The yield will be considerably short
of what it was last year. Schoharie Stand
ard. Bernard Bing writes from Nuremberg, un
der date of July 30: "I beg to Inform you
that prospects for the coming crop in Bava
ria and Bohemia are very favorable. The
vine has reached the top of the poles and Is
looking very vigorous and perfectly healthy.
Favorable weather provided, we expect an
excellent crop both in quantity and quality,
with reasonable prices.- Stock of 1906 hops
nearly exhausted; tendency is quiet and
prices declining."
SALMON PRICES MUST BE HIGH. :
Output of Canneries Not Equal to Consump
tive Requirements.
In view of the short pack of Red Alaska
Salmon which according to advices received
from Behring seas amounts to but 273.000
cases, a great deal of speculation Is being
indulged In by the trade as to the probable
opening price and the date of its anncnince
' ment. In the East there is a rumor that
the Alaska Packers' Association has named
a price of $1.15 f- o.b., but this is denied by
the J. K- Armsby Company, the soiling
agents of the Association. F. A. Aplln. ot
this company, Is credited in the trade press
with the following statement regarding the
salmon market:
"It is Bafe to say that every case of sork
eye salmon canned on the Puget Sound this
year will cost double the .price that the
packers will receive" for it. ' The packer or
Alaska ealmon will not fare quite so badly,
but he faces a serjous loss. If our figures
as to the probable pack of British Columbia
and America - are - correct and they cannot
be changed very milch comparison with the
past will be of interest.
"The total pack of salmon for the yeat
1!03 was 3.606.411 cases; 1004. 3.323.054
cases; 1905. 4.630.685 cases; 11)06, 3.774.423
cases.
"The stock of salmon in distributors'
hands Is the lightest In years. These nat
ures show that the pack for the four pre
ceding years has . been nearly 15.500.000
cases, showing an average consumption or
over 3.8O0.000 cases, against an estimated
pack this year, of probably not to exceed
two and a half million cases."
GROWTH OF THE CH1TT1M TREE.
Said to Replenish Its Bark at Certala
Searfbns.
In some parts of --Lane County the chit
tlm bark craze of a few years ago has about
stripped the country of the available eupply.
but In the vicinity of Deadwood. In the
northern part of the county, a good deal Is
raid to be left, says the Salem Journal. The
fact of the present scarcity of the bark Is
not vital, however, for the reason that It
does not take chittlm long to grow again.
Along the banks of the sloughs or around
the fences the brush will spring 41 p before
the rancher realizes his good fortune, that Is
If it has been plentiful In his section. It
springs from the seed. Frequently if a
tree. Is cut down, the nexf Spring will see a
clump of chittlm spring up around .th
stump. This kind Is not so valuable, how
ever, as is the tall .kind that grows in
shaded forests.
At certain times, when the sap is running
fast, all the bark may be stripped off the
trunk of a chittlm tree and the tree will
.not be killed, a second bark coming out at
once. This is in June, as a rule. Dogwooa
has the same quality.
It used to be that men that made their
living gathering chittlm bark filled up their
bags with dogwood and alder as well. The
local buyers could get rid of it as chittlm
and did not care. Often It is said th
smalj limbs of the chittlm trees were broken
up into small blocks and sold, for the bark.
LARGER RECEIPTS OF POCLTRY.
Fresh Ranch Egg Are Scarce and Finn
Cheese Sells Welt
Receipts of -poultry have been heavy so far
this week and should they continue large
may weaken the market. Up to the pres
ent trme prices have continued 'steady.
There was nd change In the egg situation
yesterday.. Receipts were light and th
market firm. Most sales were at 25 cents.
Tne cheese market has a strong tone wltn
the demand Again active, as stocks are
cleaning up about as fast as received.
Cantaloupes From Hood River.
Peaches were quoted steady yesterday
with receipts of about the average siz.
Pears were weaker; under rather heavy arri
vals. . The demand for watermelons was
brisk and there was plenty to fill all orders.
Among- the cantaloupes received was a
large shipment of very fine stock from Hooa
River which wae quoted at $1.50 ft 2 pet

STOCKS IN DEMAND
Good Buying Orders Lift
Priges.
MARKET CLOSES STRONG
Active Issues Advance One to Two
Points Over Monday's Quo
tations Undertone Is
Healthy.
NEW YORK. Aug. 20. A change in senti
ment appeared In the stock market today and
in place of the violent liquidation of the pre
ceding days, a good' Investment demand ap
peared, which had a healthy effect on prices.
Buying continued good up to the close, which
was strong.
During a part of the day Union Pacific
was subjected to much, pressure, but on the
rallies it responded with the remainder of
the list.
The oDenln was- at a generally higher level.
Union Pacific gaining lis points and the other
active Blocks lesser amounts. A sharp and
successful drive against Union Pacific, Read
ing and the metal Industrials was then ln-1
augurated, which caused a sharp ran in
oriees. a score of the leaders losing a point
or more. This was .succeeded by a brlBk
rallv. led bv Union Pacific, and many BtocKs
advanced from 1 to 114 points. The demand
subsided with, the. rise, but later In the day
buying orders became more aDuncant, caus
ing a material rise In prices. All the impor
tant railroad , and metal stocks sold above
yesterday's closing. The upward movement
proceeded until the list generally was quoted
from 1 to 2 points over last night's prices.
The closing was strong and fairly active.

XO DECLINE IX MARKET ON
9 GRAY'S HARBOR.
Some Camps Are Closed and May
Not Open Until Spring Cali
fornia Orders Continue.
HOQUIAM, Wash., Aug. 20. (Special.)
The price of logs on Gray's Harbor still re
mains firm and! there Is little chance for a
cut In the price during the Summer. No. 1
fir still commands the top-notch price of $12
per thousand, while spguce Is selling at $10
and cedar at $12. The latter has taken a
jump from $0.50 .to the present mark during
the past three months. The low price quoted
on cedar some time ago was due to the fail
ure to find a market for this wood, owing to
the general shutdown of the shingle .mills.
Spruce has dropped 50 cents per thousand
since July 1, but should the manufacturers
obtain cars so that this could be manufac
tured and a market -cached, the price would
soon reach a higher mark.
Not all the camps are running in this lo
cality at this time and the shutdown wil
probably reach over the entire Winter, while
those operating might possibly continue until
the California market becomes glutted again.
CALLS FOR AX HEROIC REMEDY.
Drastic Liquidation the Only Means of
- Righting Markets.
Henry Clews, of New Tork, writes of
financial conditions, under date of August
17, as follows:
"We have had another week of general
and drastic liquidation. Since the opening
of the year there has been a shrinkage in
values estimated at approximately $:,o00,
000,000. That such a tremendous shrinkage
in a little over seven months could take
plac'e on the New York Stock Exchange
without bringing on paiic and universal dis
aster is almost beyond belief, and had any
prophet the foresight or the course to hav
predicted such results last December, he
would have been treated as a subject fit for
the asylum. Nevertheless, the fact remains
true that Wall street has endured a shrink
age in values fsa exceeding that of any
panic on record, and this without any seri
ous failure thus far. The fact that these
losses have been endured without disaster i
remarkable testimony of strength in th
financial situation:- Losses have fallen
upon those best able to bear thewi, and the
causes are now beginning to be clearly un
derstood. General excesses, such as the
over-ex tension of credit, over-Issue of se
curities and over-conf idance, have been th
main and the natural reasons for recent re
action. - , -
Of course with the market in a hyper-sen
sltlve condition, investors and speculators
alike are naturally more or less frightened
at the "anti-corporation crusade. There
have" been some rather indiscreet official
utterances concerning the Government's pol
icy in prosecuting corporations; and tne anti
railroad feeling displayed in many of the
States Is naturally disturbing at this time
Nothing; however, that the Administration
could iave raid or done at' this time could
have "-tucked the recent downward move
ment. Liquidation from natural causes
was lne able It has been predicted In
these advloes for months past as the only
means of l irhtlng the money and security
markets. Whether the cure Is complete oi
not remain to be seen. It is doubtful if
liquidation has yet run its full course, and
If not, still lower prices must be anticipated
although we may have a fair temporary re
covery. The remedy for corporation law-breakers
Is punishment by imprisonment of the gulfty
lndlviduals connected therewith. - If the
Government and state officials will an
nounce this as their future policy, confc
dence will at once return to the stock mai--ket
and securities be In demand for In
vestment. Corporations whose officials are
found guilty should also be taxed for all
legal fees and court expenses. Big money
fines fall mostly upon Innocent stockholders
who have had nothing, whatever to do with
the wrong acts, hence big fines as a penalty
depreciate values as they threaten confisca
tion, while imprisonment in place thereof
will advance them, as It puts them on a
more reliable and honest basis.
It can scarcely be imagined that the blow
which has fallen upon Wall street will not
ultimately affect general business. With the
heavy losses which have fallen upon wealthy
men and large corporations, there must fol
low a sharp .contraction in new enterprises!
and improvements at me. time thought nec
essary will be indefinitely postponed. This
InevitaMv m-ars a lessened demand foi-materiais-
mil lobci. Prices are already
yielding on some manufactured prodtict,
owing to the falling off in demand; and It
remains to be seen what will be the attitude
of labor if a business reaction really sets lh.
There are - no immediate indications, how-
ever, of any general recession- Trade ia still
active in. the interior, and the fact that
the masaes are well employed at good wage
encourages tn hope of a large consumptive
demand for all the ordinary necessities of
life. The demand for the luxuries will, or
course, tie curtailed.
The railroad situation Is somewhat per
plexing. Our roads continue to show large
gross earnings, and an abundance of traffic.
The latter, however, is noticeably less press
ing than a year asro and most of the roads
are beginning to seriously feel the great
increases in expenses due to the recent con
eei-lons made to labor. During the flrsx
six months of the year, the gross earnings
of the New York Central increased over
$4,000,O0l, or about per cent,, while ex
penses increased $6 500.000, or over "0 per
cent: the result being that net earning felt
off $2,500,000 compared with the same hair
year of l!Kti. As a result, it Is estimated
that the company only earned about on&
half of the 3 per cent dividend payable foi
the first half year. On the Pennsylvania
system gross earnings Increased $14,200,000
In the first six months of the year; but ow
ing to the enormous increase in operating
expenses, the neti earnings increased only
$1,200,000. In view of the increased obliga
tions which the railroads have been obliged
to assume on account of new note and capi
tal issues, it will be seen that the financial
outlook from the railroad point of view Is
not very satisfactory.
The outlook for the market Is still unsat
isfactory. Prices are very low and there are
plenty of eood stocks which are really ver
cheap from the investor's point of view. The
monetary situation, however, has not yet
fully righted itself, and further liquidation
uvonks more than probable, with intervening
rallies of more or less Importance. Such
being the cane, it is inadvisable to go too
heavily Into debt. - Should the money situa
tion become acute. Secretary Cortelyou will
no doubt aid the money market to the ex
tent of about $50,000,000, but while call
money continues as abundant and as easy
as at present, there is no necessity for im
mediate action.

ANTICIPATE CAR SHORTAGE
Harrlman Officials Expect to
Handle Wheat Crop Easily.
' Extraordinary efforts will be made by
the Harrlma-n officials in the Pacific
Northwest to keep freight cars moving
during the crop movement, so that aJI in
terests of the three Northwestern states
may be furnished an adequate number of
ears to carry cm the business of the Fall
and Winter months.
General Manager O'Brien, at -a meeting
of the heads of departments of the- Har
rlman lines yesterday. In the Worcester
building; urged all to do their utmost
to keep freight cars moving and prevent
delay . In loading and in unloading as
well as in transit.
Perhaps the chief reason for this move
ment, aside from the desire to prevent
the recurrence of former car shortages.
Is to avoid penalties under the reciprocal
demurrage law, which provides for fines
in case cars are "not delivered within a
short time after they are ordered by
any industry.
Mr. O'Brien said yesterday that ar
rangements will be made to bring a large
number of foreign cars this way from
California during the wheat movement
and it is expected that about 125 cars a
dajf will be available to handle the wheat
crop. Unless very unusual conditions
ariae, he expects the Harrlman lines will
have all the cars needed during the
crop movement.
BIG FUND TO ADVERTISE CITY
St. . Paul Will Spend $50,000 a
Year for Three Years.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 16. (Special.) The
permanent work of advertising the
city of St. Paul, which involves the
expenditure of $53,000 . a year for a
period of three years, has been in
augurated with the election of Curtis
I Moaher, who has been actively con
nected with the advertising and pub
licity work of the Northern Pacific
Railway, as manager and director of
the campaign. Mr. Mosher is an old
time newspaper man. and has been an
active member of the Town Criers'
Club of St. Paul, the advertising or
ganization which for 18 months has
been working with the bureau In per
fecting what advertising experts have
termed a model city advertising cam
paign. St. Paul will advertise for investors
to utilize opportunities the city pre
sents; for men to build -the 5000 new
dwellings for rental purposes which
are now required, and many other
specific needs of the city, all of which
tend to its growth in industrial and
commercial Importance and In popula
tion. Specific things are to be adver
tised. The plans adopted are based
on the principle that the city should
advertise nothing on which it cannot
"make good" to the fullest extent, and
that' city advertising is designed first
of all to bring a man and an oppor
tunity into touch each with the other.
Mr. Mo'sher will establish offices in
the Endlcott Building at once and the
campaign will be actively prosecuted
from the start- Ample furtds to cover
the work of two years are in the
treasury and all the important details
of the work have been definitely de
cided upon. Two months of prelim
inary work have already been com
pleted, in which advertising experts
and business men donated their serv
ices. This work was unusually suc
cessful and has produced splendid re
turns. The publicity bureau will divide its
work into three distinct parts, one cov
ering direct National advertising in
carefully selected mediums, one cov
ering , an infinite variety of special
lines' of work, and one comprehending
the establishment of conveniently lo
cated visitors' rooms, where strangers
in St. Paul may be made to feel at
home and may be furnished informa
tion and other courtesies. A carefully
perfected office system has - been
adopted through which follow-up work
will be conducted. The bureau will
work In close harmony with the St.
Taul jobbers' Union and the Business
League of St. Paul, tw powerful or
ganizations which will render valu
able assistance in follow-up work and
In problems involving commercial and
industrial development.
The St. Paul publicity bureau has a
membership of 42, representing 22
commercial organizations, each of
which is participating in the city- ad
vertising work. The advertising fund
has been collected without popular
subscription and without personal
solicitation. It represents the volun
tary contributions of business houses
and individuals.

A. D. Charlton Answers Communi
cation of Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber of Commerce is in re
ceipt of a letter from A. D. Charlton,
generai passenger agent of the North
ern Pacific Railway Company, . in re
sponse to its communication regarding
the poor train service between Port
land and Aberdeen. At .the present
time it la necessary that passengers
from Portland change trains twice be
tween these two points. In his letter
Mr. Charlton says:
"This question has been up for some
time past and a thorough investigation
made In regard thereto. The service.
as existing at the present time is ttte
best that can be done in connection
therewith, as 1t is impossible to oper
ate any additional trains over the main
line between Portland and Centralia, in
addition to which there is not enough
business to justify an exclusive train
between" Portland and Aberdeen."
This matter will be referred to the
trustees of the Chamber of Commerce
at heir next meeting.
