HOP MARKET FLAT
Demand From the East and
Europe Falls Away. .
BREWERS WILL NOT BUY
Overproduction Makes Itself IFelt
Unusually Early In the Season.
Stocks on Hand on the
Pacific Coast.
The hop market, after a brave show of
strength for a rood part of the month, has
again flattened out. The demand, both
from the East and Europe, has fallen to
mall proportions, and with holders offering
freely all along the Coast, a weakened con
dition has become- inevitable. It may be
that something will occur later to help the
market, but as things stand today It must
be acknowledged that the prospect Is not
bright. This may not be palatable news for
the hopgrowers, but the fact speak for
themselves.
October, which Is regarded as the busiest
month of the year in the hop trade, is now
almost gone and there Is left on the Coast
approximately ieT.500 bales of hops of the
190T crop, as follows: ,
Oregon . . . ,
California .

Ttii. 1T.Kw hales is not the only weight
on the market, as about SO.000 bales of last
year's crop remain In growers or dealers
hands In the United States.
This great amount of hops would not
look so alarming. In view of the yearly re
quirements of the brewing trade, but for
the fact that the brewers profess to be
amply stocked with hops of prevlou years'
growths. Whether they are actually sup
plied as well as they say Is something only
the brewers themselves know, but it Is a
fact that the Eastern dealers are pestered
by Paclflo Coast dealers ottering hops, yet
no business results. It Is malt that the
brewer Is worrying about now. rather than
hops, according to the reports sent in by
hop traveling men. With the American
barley crop 81.000,000 bushels short of that
of 1908 and 1 per cent lower in quality, the
brewer has something else to think about,
evidently, than hops. The financial condi
tions In the East are another factor that
has to be reckoned with.
If there were fair chances of hop prices
advancing, there would certainly be specu
lation In the market. Last year the strong
est bull manipulative movement ever un
dertaken In the hop martoet was carried on
by Paul R. G. Horst. but it was unsuccess
ful, as everyone knows. Prices eventually
tumbled because there were too many hops,
"and but for Horst's strong buying they
would probably have tumbled sooner. This
year there are no Horsta to boost prices.
The law of supply and demand. In spite
of all manipulation, is certain, sooner or
tn nniki Itself felt. Last year the
enforcement was delayed, but this year it
has come sooner.
It Is the customary thing for growers to
blame dealers for bringing about low prices
There are certainly some short sellers in the
trade who would be Interested in seeing low
prices, but these shorts most assuredly can
not b controlling all the big dealers In the
worm, ana meee Dig uomci n, wn.u iwuuij
.TMnHATi Iiilva forecasted low rrlces for
this season..
' Every candid observer must acknowledge
that what the world's hop trade Is suf
fering from is overproduction. The evil is
the direct result of the high, prices of a
few years ago which Influenced American
growers to extend greatly their hop acreage.
Short selling, which the keenness of compe
tition in the trade has produced. Is but a
aide issue. The growers themselves are to
blame for the overproduction and they can
only right the market In future years by
crowing fewer hops. Most of them realize
this, but they want the other fellow to do It.
IRONMONGER'S VIEWS ON HOPS.
Gay the
Consumption In
Europe
Decreasing.
Practically no encouragement for an im
provement In the hop market Is held forth
to the growers by Thomas Ironmonger, who
s regarded as one of the best posted hop
men In London. Mr. Ironmonger, who Is
secretary of the English Hopgrowers' As
sociation, in a letter received by Isaao
Plncus & Sons, of Tacoma, says that brew
ers in England are heavily stocked with
hops.
After discussing the size and quality ot
the English crop and the 'unsatisfactory
opening of the market, Mr. Ironmonger
writes:
The main, question is: Do the brewere
want the hops? There Is a certainty that
the consumption of hops in England la
decreasing, and I think the same move
ment Is taking place throughout Europe.
' The other day I went through some cold
hop stores which were, tilled completely,
and when I asked to whom the hops be
longed. I was told that over three-fourths
of them had been long ago sold to brewers,
who did not yet require them. This, I con
sider very significant, and putting; together
II T ViawA - n. hH.X T am null. PDBV
to agree with you that the outlooa favors
the continuance ot low prices during the
(uimlnv i on vear.
I am frequently blamed by growers when
I put these apparent facts In the columns
of the Mark Lane Express, to which I con
tribute a weekly report on hops and the
trade. But I tell them that nothing can
be gained by concealing the truth, which
must prevail; though It Is frequently un
palatable. Some growers believe that by
making a noise they can regulate the sup
ply and demand, with their everlasting re
sults; therefore I am not altogether popular
with them, although occasionally one has
the honesty to admit that I am rlsht and
that It would have been more profitable If
they had followed my lead. However, I
am satisfied that facts will beat theories
In the long run, and shall persevere In my
course without bias, desirous as I am to
assist our growers by all legitimate means.
SOT MUCH POULTRY IX COUNTRY
Present Receipts Indicate Supplies Are Be
ing Cleaned UP.
Receipts of poultry yesterday were some
what larger than is usual on Monday, but
the demand was fair and they sold within
the previous range of prices. The indica
tions are that supplies In the country are
being well cleaned up and that prices will
be good during the remainder of the Winter
except for occasional brief periods when
there may be an excess of receipts. The
poor quality of the chickens coming to hand
shows the cleanlng-up process on the farms.
There were better receipts of eggs yester
day, but the demand waa active and the
market was firm.
The city creameries report a steady but
ter market and the dally make Is disposed
of without trouble. On Front street, on the
other hand, the tone is weak with the sup
ply heavier than the demand.
ONIONS FIRM AND POTATOES WEAKER
2To Trading Reported Under Way In the
Former Product.
There were no new developments In the
onion market yesterday. No business was
rnnnrti4. HftmiiflA thai oi-na. 4ii-a a
sell. The buyer who on Saturday made a
bona fide offer of J 2. 50 for 50 carloads made
the statement yesterday that he would pay
Tea more for 100 cars If he could get
them. This shows his faith in the future or
the onion market.
The potato market was quoted weak with
SI as the top. Idaho Is reported to be
shipping heavily to Los Angeles, where it Is
said the Idaho potatoes can be laid down
at $1.20 per hundred. Potatoes are selling
now at 70 cents f. o. b. Idaho Falls. It is
said there are over 1000 cars in that sec
tion to be disposed of. The only outlet for
them is Texas. Arizona and Southern Cali
fornia points.
As for the alleged shipments being made
from Idaho and Eastern Oregon to Kansas
City. It might be remarked that the Kansas
City market is quoted at $1.15 and as there
is a freight rate of 70 cents, the supplies
would have to be bought around 45 cents
for the shipper to come out even. As the
growers in the section named are asking 70
and 75 cents, It is difficult to see how such
business Is possible.

STOCK TRADE LIGHT
Business on a Small Scale and
Prices Higher. -
BUT CLOSE IS IRREGULAR
Dissolution of Bankers .Pool Causes
General Readjustment of Loans.
Rise In Price- of Copper on ,
Heavy Foreign Buying.
NEW YORK, Oct. 28. The stock market
was in & condition resembling suspended
animation at times today, owing to the re
straints placed upon the flow of banking
credits. The higher range of prices pre
vailed In spite of the scanty volume of the
transactions, and was an expression of the
confidence generally felt that the financial
crisis Is now under control.
This Influence, derived from the general
situation, waa modified to some extent by
the readjustment of loans on the stock ex
change, necessitated by the dissolution of
the bankers' pool, which supplied $30,000,000
to be loaned on the stock exchange last
week. The result was some dislocation In
the existing arrangements, which produced
an effect on prices of stocks, late in the
day. The dissolution of the bankers' pool
was deolded upon hecause the plan to Is
sue clearing-house certificates waa consid
ered to have done away with the require
ment for it. This was a matter the Im
portance of which was considered strictly
localized in the stock market, and It did
not modify the feeling of relief over the
measures taken for meeting the crisis In Its
larger field. In parts of the country where
currency Is In active circulation now In the
movement of crops, the greatest disturbance
occurred, the wheat market being one ot
its reflections.
Another development which came Into in
creased promtnence today, is the heavy for
eign purchases of copper, which have been
going on and which have wrought a re
covery from the long-continued decline m
that metal. Prices were marked up lo
per pound, both in the bid and asked prices
at the New York metal exchange today, and
there was a violent rebound in the London
copper market. The foreign demand ror
copper la reported to continue on the rising
prices and reports from the copper trade to
day alleged a substantial reduction In the
surplus domestic supply as a consequence.
This is accepted as an important Index ot a
basis having been reached for new business
in the copper industry, -and the additional
supply of exchange It promises gives en
couragement of the confidence that the gold
import movement, now Inaugurated, will
amount to large additional sums over those
already engaged, which have reached
$18,000,000.
London and Continental discounts rose in
response to our takings of gold and the
Continental exchanges turned strongly In
favor of London. The Bank of England did
not officially advance Its discount rate, but
was reported to be making no discounts
under s per cent. The stock market closed

TREATS CHILD LIKE DOG
Long Island - Woman's Antipathy
, Finds Outlet in Brutality.
NEW YORK, Oct. 28 The caso of
Mrs. Annie Mohr, of Corona, L. I.,
charged with compelling her 7-year-old
daughter to Bleep in the basement with
a mongrel house dog. and with other
wise illtreatlng the child, la attracting
attention because of the unnatural
treatment by a mother of her own
child. Her family Is in comfortable
circumstances, and there are two other
children, both of whom are well kept
and well clothed. Martha, the abused
child, Is the second child of the three
in the family. Both the elder and
younger sisters were In court when the
mother was arraigned, happy and smil
ing. Peter Mohr, fhe father, In testifying,
said his f wife took a strange, unac
countable dislike to Martha, and alt
efforts to overcome it were unavailing.
They finally gave the child out for
adoption, but Its foster-mother
soon died, and they were compelled to
take Martha back home again.
No amount of persuasion could in
duce Mrs. Mohr to accept the little one
as her own, and since then the child
has simply lived like an outcast. When
she appeared In court, her body was
oovered -ylth bruises, the marks of re
peated beatings, while she cowered in
fear every time an unexpected move
was made. In noticeable contrast to
her two sisters, Martha's clothing was
coarse and ragged.
The case Is still pending In court,
but meantime a children's society la
caring for Martha..

Chicago Grain Traders Have
Another Scare.
ALL TRY TO SELL AT ONCE
Rumors Current Xbat Banks Were
Calling on Elevator Interests to
Market Their Holdings.
Part of Loss Regained,-
CHICAGO. Oct. 28. Heavy liquidation, due
to the stringency of the .money market,
caused a 4-cent decline in wheat prices on
the local exchange today. The break came
in the first 15 minutes of trading, and was
followed by a quick rally of more than lc,
after which the market held fairly steady.
The early decline was caused by heavy sell
ing, brought about by the financial situation.
Rumors were current thaf banks all over the
country were calling on elevator Interests to
market their holdings and take up loans
which had been made on grain. During the
last half of the session cash houses and ele
vator Interests were active buyers of the De
cember option and this steadied the market.
The close was steady. December opened 24
to 8 a lower, at 96 to 8Sc. sold off to
96o and closed 2c down at 87c
The corn market fell sharply at the opening
because of heavy selling by holders, but be
came steady late In the day on buying by
shorts. The close was steady. December
opened H to o lower, at 57 H to 67140, sold
off to 66Mc and closed down o at 0114c.
Oats deollned 1 to 2o early in the day,
because of the weakness In wheat and corn.
The market showed little recovery from the
low point of the day and closed weak. De
cember opened to lHo lower, at 80 to 6OH0,
broke to 48o and closed 2o lower at 49c.
Provisions were weak in sympathy with
grain and because of the 60 decline in the
price of live hogs. At th close January pork
was off 22Ho. lard 714 to 100 lower and ribs
were down 10c .
