TIE MORNING OREGOXIAN, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1908. 15 HOPS LEFT ON HAND Nearly 40,000 Bales of.'07s, 8000 '06s in Oregon. SHIPMENTS FROM STATE 6inc the Beginning ' ot the Crop YearAbout 90,000 Bales Have Been. Sent East by Rail. Stock9 In Other tates. The over-supplied condition of the hop market, and consequent lack of Improve ment in values. U disclosed by atatutlca Jut compiled, based on the rail movement. These figures, while betieved to be close, are subject to revision, as the completeness of the estimates is dependant on a positive knowledge of the supplies still to be moved, and such statistics are not yet available. The trade, however. Is making good prog ress in the compilation of the farmers re serve figures. . Since the beginning of the present crop year, the rail shipments ot hops from Or egon have been approximately 90,005 bales. The movement by months follows, the Jan uary shipments being the quantity already sent out and the three remaining days of the month estimated: Bales. BoTitember ' J'i October is'v'S November laws December T.inn January 5'5(l0 Total 00 095 Of the total shipments to date about 9000 bales were of the 11)08 crop. About 10.000 bales of 1007 hons are In warehouses throughout the state, stored on Fastern account or, held by 'speculators. The quantity hold by farmers is estimated by the Portland trade at about 30.000 bales and by the Salem trade at 10.000 bales less. Most of the Portland dealers now base their statistic, on a total crop of 130.000 bales, while those of Salem, who figured, at the opening of the season, on 100.000 to 110.000 bales, will now concede at least 120.000 bales as the state's total yield. On Sep tember 1. there were 17.000 bale, of the previous crop on hand and about 8000 bale of the 1O06. still remaining unsold. Practically one-half of the surplus In the Pnlted States is In Oregon. a Is shown by "the following table tin bales) of unsold ,t0clU,: 1907.. lOOOs. 3H.0OO 8.000 Oregon . . w0 B,oo Washington oa'ooil 10,000 r fnmm . ... -rr- New York 3.000 Total -0 -1-000 The American hop state, last Fall har vested about 300,000 bales. Three-quarter, of the crop has passed Into .consumer hands, and as the buying season la sup posed to be over, the question that con fronts both dealers and Brewers now 1. what to do with the remaining quarter. I.ITTU! I'OINO 1XWUEAT MARKET Cause of the IX-prc-lor. ta the Foreign jttniin Trade. Trade is exceedingly dull In the local wheat market, with both buyer, and .oiler, apparently Indifferent. Former price, were Quoted yesterday. Commenting on the depression In the English market, Bcerbohm wrotee: Prices are not easy to maintain In face of the favorable crop repot ts from the Ar gentine and the continued enormous output of Hour from America and Canada, and tne probability that there will be ""la or no wheat from India this year and very re ?.ri"ted supplies from Australia is lost sight or in the contemplation of these- present facts, in the past four week., for Instance. America and Canada have sent to Europe no lee. than 2.TSO.UOO quarters, out of total shipments from all countries of 3.40O.OO0 nimrtefs; thus nearly 75 per cent is the pro portion from America and Canada. Doe not this Indicate extreme scarcity in other countries apart from America! In view or the fact, however, that a very big Argentine crop la now assured wllh possible surplus of lfi.000.000 quarters, compared with 13.o, 000 quarters last year, the trade la asking how long these large American shipment, can continue. It being reported that an Im portant decrease In these exports will be the sequel for renewed strength and activity In the market. The question Is not easy to answer, but if the official estimate of the lart American crop can be relied upon the surplus from that crop haa already been exported and a considerable Inroad upon the reserve stocks carried over from last sea son haa already been made. ORANGE MARKET 18 ADVANCING. Frlree Higher In California Because ot the Continued Rain. The orange market Is firmer all along the Coast. Pricea have advanced in California because of the steady week of rain, and the local situation haa been strengthened by the cleaning up of most of the cheap stock that waa held here.

These bananaa were less than five days in transit from Los An geles and were not expected until today.

ADVERSE NEWS IS OFFSET V Operations Center Largely In the Reading Issues Effect of Divi dend Announcements Money Rates Are Almost Nominal. NEW TORK. Jan. 28. The strength shown by stocks today was considered to be due to much the same causes as yesterday, the fostering measures by harge banking and capital Interests against an undue effect from unfavorable incidents and the needs ot an- uncovered short Interest belns; regarded as prime factors in t advance. The rise was followed with reserve by the speculative element and an alertness to take profits kept The action of the Cleveland, Cincinnati, j Chicago & St. Louis directors in repuans the dividend on the stock from 2 to 1 per cent for the half year had a chilling effect on sentiment, chiefly by reason of the severe effect on the prices of ths stock Itself. The earnings report of the company was pub lished at the same time and ths heavy In road of operating expenses and fixed charges on the funds available for dlvldents caused apprehension that a general tendency might be illustrated by this case. The effect was partly offset by the simultaneous increase in the dividend on the New York, Chicago & St. Louis second preferred stock, a sub sidiary Vanderbllt company. A cheerful effect waa produced also by various reports from scattered sources of resumption of operation, by factories which have been closed down, although this Influence waa modified again by contrasting reports of continued reduction of shop forces by some of the large railroad systems. Estimates from official sources of the de crease in freight-car movement east of Al toona seemed to show that the rate of shrinkage In January was elonslderably greater than In December, the December movement showing 35.O0O less cars than the preceding December, while preliminary esti mates of the January movement show a de crease of 60,000 cars from the January pre ceding. , Report, of an advance in the price of copper by the selling agent of the prin cipal producer was a factor In the strength shown' 6jr the metal stocks. Including Amal gamated Copper and American Smelting. The supporting operations centered largely In Reading. The decrease In the borrowing demand for stocks In the loan crowd re flected the diminution In the short Interest in the market and the tone waa affected by this as the day proceeded. Money continued to lend at almost nom inal figures on call, and the time-loans market waa still soft and yielding, with little demand for funds of that class. The measures of support for prices reasserted their Influence after a reaction on profit taking and the market closed firm. Bonds were strong. Total sales, $4,646. 000. United States 3s advanced H per cent on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Low. Bid. Sales. High. Adams' Express , Amal Copper Am Car ft Foun , do preferred . . .

REPAIR EAST SIDE STREETS DISTRICT TO PREPARE FOR . ROSE FESTIVAL. United Push Club Appoints Commit tee to Take Up AVork and Dis cusses Other Questions. Some of the plans for the Rose Festival, especially those relating to the participa tion of the Kast Bide in that event were. explained at the meeting of the United East Side Push Club last nisht by W. P. Strand'borg. He said that the rrt of the parade that could pass through the Bast -Side would be the automobile division. In which there would probably be 500 or 600 machines, making a decorated procession about five miles long. Mr. Strandborg said that the East Side should get its streets In good condition, "make prepara tion to decorate the line of march and provide Illuminations. Along the line of the suggestions, Jo seph Buchtel and O. B. Heintz were ap pointed to wait on the Warren Construc tion Company to ask that the paving of Grand avenue be expedited and also ask the Executive Board to have Bast Morri son street repaired. C. C. Chapman made a short talk along this line and commended the clubs in general for their work. J. H. Nolta reported that a proposition was pending beforethe Council to appro priate $50,000 with which to purchase rock- crushers and quarries. The club passed a resolution ' urging the Council to make the appropriation. J. Frank Perkins was added to the rock-crusher committee, as he announced that a quarry and plant located at Mllwaujde could be secured by the city to begin operation without delay Dr. C. H. Raffety, of the .vater Board, was present, and reported on the condi tion of the fund for laying mains. , said that there was a great number of applications for water mains on file, but only those ot special merit could (be grant ed, owing to the lack of funds. He thought about $300,000 would be available for lay ing mains during the present year. M. G. Munly, of the North ilast Side Improvement Association, reported that the petitions for the bridge across the (Willamette River, north of Sullivan's Gulch, had been prepared, and would be circulated at once. It was announced that the same course would be taken with reference to the new Madison-street bridge. The meeting adjourned to the second Tuesday In February, when plans for participation In the Rose Festival will be adopted.

TOURIST RftTES HUT 20 THIS YEAR REDUCTION MAY COME" EARLIER. Request for Change to Accommodate Rose Festival Traffic Will Be Made of Association. Efforts will be made at the quarterly meeting of the Transcontinental Pas senger Association to put in the regular Summer tourist rates earlier than usual for the benefit of the Rose Festival. It Is believed that the effort will be success ful, and if this Is the case it will mean a greatly increased travel through Port land during June and a very large at tendance at the Rose Festival. The association will meet at Coronado, February 6. A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent for the Northern Pacific, and John M. Scott, assistant gen eral passenger agent for the Harriman lines In this territory, will attend the session, leaving Portland next Saturday night. In former years, the special Summer tourist rates, for first-class travel, have been inaugurated June 1 and continued until September 15. It Is the plan or the Portland representatives at the meeting to have the special rates put in force May 20, instead of June 1, ttHis giving the Eastern tourists time to reach Portland in large numbers by the time the Rose Festival opens. In addition to this tourist rate, which is perhaps of chief interest among the business matters to be considered, there is a mass of routine passenger affairs that always come up for settlement at the regular sessions of the transcon tinental association.
