THE MORNING . OBEGOMAX, THURSDAY, JANUARY 16, 1908. 13 HOPS ME WANTED Steady Demand for- Spot Goods' and Contracts. CHOICE GRADES SCARCE Association Talk, Says Krcbs, Has Stimulated Efforts of Dealers to Secure Kuture- Crops. Advance In Onions. A good dwnand for hops continues In evi dence and more or lews active buying is reported from several sections. Moat of the transactions latrly have 'been around 6 cents. The Inquiry for choice goods Is very strong, but these descriptions are almost unobtaina ble, though the Inferior qualities are freely offered for sa!e. Some heavy buying is now being done by the E. C. Horst Company, whow recent purchases aggregate over loco bales. The George Miller lot of 72 bales, at Keedville, was bought yesterday by Ernest WHIb for Horst. Contracts are still being sought for, prin cipally by Salem dealers, who are offering 10 and 11 cents for three and Ave years. A few one-year contracts have been written at 0 cents and C. I. Fttchard, of Indepen dence, made one for a conKlderabe amount at 10 cents, which la the higheet price so far reported paid for 1IK)8 hops alone. While growers, generally are ready to accept current prices for 1907s, they are not so willing to contract their future crops at Vhe cost of production, in view of ths promises of better values held .out by the promoters of the growers' association. "Hop-growers are certainly unwise in mak ing contracts while the association is in pro cess of formation." said Conrad Krebs, one of the leaders in the movement, yesterday. "They, have only to wait a short, time to be assured of the success of the union. That It la going to mean higher prices is appar ent to the buyers, who are industriously en gaged now In getting all the hops they can on contract. Kefore this association, talk was heard, no one, wanted contracts at any price. Now there is a scramble for these ctieap con tracts before it is too late. "I notice the statement made by Mr. Pin cus. of Tacoma, that if the union undertakes to grade the crop, It will be December before th hops are on the market. He is entirely m'rong. Sampling will be much quicker when the association is formed than under the pres ent system. The association will have a com plete line of samples 15 days after harvest and by the end of CVtober can have every crop graded. Tho grading will be dono by experts who are members of the. association, and as the earn pies will bo numbered ia owners known only to the directorsthere will be no opportunity for crooked work In classifying.' ONIONS ATAN ADVANCE. Tw Curt Reported Sold nt 93.15 Better Ienuuid for Apple. Tho sals of two cars of fancy onions at 2.15 to a local shipper was reported yes terday, but most of the buyers say they would hesitate to pay this price In view of tho largo supply lately sent to California, even if growers, were disposed tp let g0( at the figure named, ; Which they ore not. A good demand Is reported for choice potatoes, both on local and shipping account. Tho vegetable market is liberally sup plied and moit sorts sell well at strong prices, except hothouse lettuce, which, be cause of the abundance of other truck, move slowly at reduced quotation. The 0 ale of sweet potatoes has been "checked by the. high price to which, this article has risen. Some Improvement is reported in the de mand for apples and there is more move ment In the better grades, now that cheap apples are about gone. Yesterday's arrivals Included one car of lemons and two of oranges. Bananas were due on last night's train. feLOW MOVEMENT TN POVXTRY MARKET Eggs 'Taken I p Batter In Anticipation of Colder Meuther. Receipts of poultry were moderate yester day, but business generally was slow. The strongest demand was for broilers, ducks land goeso. More activity whs noted In the egg mar ket, buyers showing a disposition to stock Alp In anticipation of colder weather. The better buying had the effect of arrest ing the downward tendency of the market. Butter held about steady and no change in prices Is looked for In the Immediate future. Receipts of veal were large, but the mar ket held up well. Hors were in fair sup ply and , still quoted weak. Mill feed Very Firm. Buying In the wheat market Is on a mall scale, according to the local trade, and tho tone of the market Is about steady. Mill feed Is very firm and higher, owing to an active demand and light supply avail able. Bank Clearing. Clearings of the Northwestern cities yes terday were as follows: Clearings.

Very CLOSING TONE IRREGULAR Advance Proceeds Far Enough to Bring Out Liberal Sales to Take Profits Flow of Money to New York. NEW YORK. Jan. IS. The reactionary movement of the market became more pro nounced today and prices gave way rather decisively. The fall was rot precipitate, however, and the measures of support were not abandoned. There were points of strength in the market, the marking up of Industrial stocks being Intended rather obviously for sustaining effect against-the profit-taking sales which were in progress. The turning In the course of the market was not attended by any marked change in the tenor of the news, but was accounted for rather on technical grounds, the ad vance having run a sufficient length to bring out- ales to take profits, while- the buyers facilities were no less striking than last week'. Interest rates were lower for all classes of loans and. the call-loan rate at the stock exchange showed a rapid ap proach to absolute ease. No official infor mation Is obtainable as to the clearing house loan certificate issues, but it is admit ted that these instruments are in progress of rapid retirement, the rate of which has been sufficient since last Saturday's bank state ment to Insure the total extinction of the whole issue in a few days' time. The reflux of funds to banking reserve centers deprives the dlscuBslon of the un favorable course of the Government revenues of any disturbing effect. The growth of the deficit in the Government revenues, which has now reached $12,000,000 .for the fiscal year, compared with a surplus over expenditures for the same period last year of $23,000,000. while the free cash in the Treasury is less than $8,000,000, makes it certain that large calls must be made on the banks for the surrender of Govern ment deposits In a short time. Frjm other indications it Is ev'.dent that not only are banking deposits returning free ly to New York, but that bank circulation is contracting materially. Current re demption of National banknotea is running very large, the total thus far In January, according to yesterday's statement' of the United states Treasury operations, having reached nearly $13,000,000, or considerably more than $1,000,000 a day. The action expected tomorrow on the Amalgamated Copper dividend is awaited with Interest, in view of the examples of re duced disbursement on copper securities which have been offered. Reading was bid up -lth great determination In the last half of the trading and the low prices to which stocks fell in the course of the selling were partly repaired In sympathy. The closing tone, however, was Irregular. Bonds, irregular. Total sales, par value, $3,872,000. United States 3s declined Vi per cent on call. ' CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low.
