Careless Storing Responsible
' for Its Appearance.
SHOWS IN MANY SECTIONS
Growers Should Investigate the Con
dition of Their Warehouses
AVithout Delay English
View of Union.
A subject that IB attractinr mucli at
tention In tl. hop trade U the appearance
of blue mold on hops In many parta ot the
Valley. This mold or mildew comes as the
result of the warm, mol.t weather that oas
prevailed mo.t of the Winter. The only hops
affected are those that are Improperly
stored, but as there are many growers
who have not paid sufficient attention .to
the storing of their crops, it Is feared the
loss may be large. In Borne sections an at
tempt has been made to conceal the fact
of the appearance of the blue mold, but
the trade la fully awake to the situation.
Of nine lots bought by one dealer In the
past two weeks, parts of seven were rejected
because of mold. The trouble first appeared
In a few Isolated spots about a month ago.
but It Is now reported from many of the
sections. The last bad visitation of blue
mold In this state was In 183ft. Hops that
year sold by the bale. Growers who still
have hope on their farms would do well
to make an Inspection ot the bales and
they may save considerable depreciation In
the value of their goods if they act
promptly.
Dealers reported less activity In the mar
ket yesterday than at the close of last week.
Among the purchases were four carloads by
Hart & Hubbard at 8 to 8 cents. Ieaac
Plncus St Sons bought at Chehalls the Dob
Son lot of 106 bales and the Donohpe lot of
120 bales at 5V4 cents.
In Us issue of January 14. the Watervllle
N. T.) Times says of that market:
Since last Tuesday quite a brisk trade
has taken place on this market. In the
neighborhood of SOO bales having changed
hands. Many of these were purchased from
(rowers In nearby towns. About 8 or 9
cents was paid for the poorer grades and as
high as 14 cents was paid, but In the ma
jority of cases 10 to 12 cents was thw price
given, as there are few flrst-gTade hops
left to warrant paying the higher price.
The Syracuse N. Y.) Standard, in re
viewing the hop market, says:
In spite of New York's rapid slump as a
liopgrowlng state during the last few years
the state still holds third place as a hop
producer, and the crop this year netted the
New York farmers close to 52.000.000. For
the acreage employed the hop crop Is one of
the most lucrative of all agricultural prod
ucts, and It Is only arter a long and hard
fight that the New York farmers have yield
ed the supremacy in this product to the
ststes of the Northwest.
The English hop papers are devoting
much space to the proposed Pacific Coast
Hopgrowers Union, showing the interest
taken by the English growers and consum
ers In the movement. W. S. Harnett, a
grower of Sittlnghourne, Kent, In letter
on the subject to the Watervllle Times
writing of course from the viewpoint of an
English producer concludes as follows:
If I might he allowed to ad vis the "Hop
growers' 1'nlnn" 1 would suggest that the
Pacific Coast hopgrowers burn their sur
plus hops and reduce their acreage to the
point necessary to supply their home de
mand. Then, with tlieir 12-cent duty on
foreign Imported hops, they can regulate
their own market without outside Interfer
ence. ,
ONIONS ARRIVE FROM UNION COUNTY
Shipment of Red Globe Variety Offered
the I.ochI Tnule.
A car of oranges and two cars of swoet
potatoes comprised yesterday's arrivals
from the South. A car of Ilallowee dates
will be In . today and two cars of bananas
are due tonight. The sweet potato market
has an upward tendency and will probably
continue to advance as long as buyers will
pay the price. Quotations In other lines are
unchanged.
A car of Red Globe onions from Union
was offered to the trade yesterday. No
price was fixed on the lot. but onion men
valued them at somewhere between $1.50
and $1.75. Very little was doing In Valley
onions, which were quoted firm and nominal
at $2. Earn Broaddus, who has returned to
Portland from Los Angeles, says Oregon
onions will yet sell for $2.50.
Eg-jr Quotation Normal.
The egg market was a nominal affair
yesterday. Receipts were good, but the
movement was very slow, as retailers bought
from hand to mouth and there was prac
tically no shipping Inquiry. The usual quo
tation was 27 cents, but some dealers
would have cleaned up for less.
Poultry arrivals were light and as the
demand was limited, last week's prices were
till quoted.
Some city creamery butter la still being
offered at 35 cents, but most of the cream
eries are up to the top price. Front street
is weak.
Local Wheat Market Weak.
The wheat market Is still quiet and
doubtless will continue so until the foreign
markets Improve. The feeling yesterday was
-weak, in view of the decline at Liverpool,
but some purchases at Saturday's prices
were . reported, though other buyers quoted
lower prices.

. REDUCTION OF THE HOP ACREAGE.
Paul Hoist Says It Is the Only Salvation
for the Growers.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash., Jan. 20. (Spe
cial.) Along with the strenuous work done
by hop men of this district to unionize
local hop Interests, with a fair prospect of
success, come two or three Important state
ments from Paul R. G. Horst, of New York,
one of the leading hop dealers of the coun
try. Mr. Horst, on his way to Portland,
stopped here to ascertain the present status
of the situation. Mr. HorBt ridicules the
idea that the unionization of the hop
growers' Interests will effect the favorable
change in the market the growers desire.
"The only salvation, for the hopgrowers,"
says Mr. Horst, "is the reduction of the
acreage. There are on hand today 205.000
bales of the 1900 and 1907 crops. There will
be Imported about &5.000' bales of foreign
hops. In round figures, this makes 300,000
bales. The consumption will be about 2O0.
00 bales, but we will put It at 240,000 bales.
This will leave a surplus In hand of 00.000
bales, of which 8000 are held in the Yakima
district.
"The union of Interests between the
growers and brewers Is unbuslness-llke, and,
therefore, unreasonable. Wltn barley high,
malt high, prohibition curtailing the growth
of consumption . and wages constantly in
creasing, will the brewer seek to advance
the price of hops also?
"The brewer holds a surplus supply of
hops for one year ahead. Accepting the
statement of the authors of the union that
the dealers and others, apart from the
brewers, now hold a supply quite sufficient
for another year, where In this fact is
found any comfort for the grower? Add'to
this situation the fact that the crop of
1908 Is near at hand. What effect can the
influence of the union have on this condi
tion r As a holder of about 90,000 bales
myselfV I wish It were different, but this
state of affairs exists and no organization
of the growers can help It, no matter what
Its membership may please to do.
"The market Is overstocked. The only
way to reduce the stock,, aside from Its
regular consumption. Is to reduce the sup
ply. That means a reduction of the acreage
as the only salvation."

SLUMPIN SMELTING
Sudden Decline Carries Stocks
Down at the Close.
DULLNESS MOST OF DAY
Baltimore & Ohio's Report of Earn
ings in December Unfavorable.
Southern Pacific Strong
and Active.
NEW YORK. Jan. 20. The stock . mar
ket seemed Indisposed to move far in either
direction today, the many waverings of the
early pay of the day giving- way to marked
dullness until the sudden decline Just- be
fore the cloning;. The actual occurrence of
events, ant lcl Dated by successive advanced
buying, is likely to lead to heavy selling
to take profits. That such selling was In
moderate volume today might be partly at
tributable to the large amount of realizing
effected during; the last week. The con
clusive evidence, furnished by Saturday's
phenomenal bank statement, of the rapid
progress towards a condition of practical
redundancy in the money market was
clearly an event to schedule In the list of
hopes realized.
There were several elements of positive
depression with which the market had to
contend. American Smelting; broke with
some wiMness In the early dealings and
again at the cloea.
The statement of earnings for Icember
of the Baltimore & Ohio was impressive for
several reasons. Coming as the first of the
largest systems to make return for that pe
riod, it was not a cheerful index of the, gen
eral showing likely to be made by other com
panies. Its significance was enhanced by
the fact that only a small increase In the
operating cost figured in the result, which
was primarily due to the falling off in the
gross returns. The resisting power of the
market seemed to be negatively Indicated
by the fact that Baltimore & Ohio and
the United States Steel stocks were affected
only in a trifling degree by this incident.
On the other hand, the market was
sluggish In responding to some ot the fac
tors of positive strength. A strong sus
taining influence waa-offered in the absorp
tion of Southern Pacific on a rising scale.
A decision of a Federal Court in Missouri
against the state's effort to penalize the
transfer of suits by foreign corporations
from State to Federal Courts was made
something of as evidence of the judicial
safeguards against wrongful measures
against corporations.
Bonds were irregular. Total sbles, par
value, $3,820,000. United States 2s de
ci'iied per cent on call.
