EVERY YEAR BIGGER
Surplus Only Is Making Prog
ress in Hop Industry.
OPINION OF P. M. R'OONEY
Growers Mufct Supply the Check to
the Increasing Excess by Jlc
duclng Acreage Smaller
Demand Is Predicted.
A reduction of hop acreago In the Western
Lata, Is imperative. In the opinion of P. M.
Ttooney, who has had large experience in the
handling of hop, and has made the business
a subject of close study. In a letter written
to one of his California hop-growing friends
ho gives the following figures and facta In
jupport of hla contention:

'Assuming the figures herein given to be
correct," wrote Mr. Rooney. "(not saying any
thing about 20,000 or 30,000 bales that were
bought two years ago by a prominent dealer,
most of which he still holds), the question now
arises., why should growers grow hops the
coming season with starvation prices staring
them In the face?
"There is no question about our having a
surplus of at loivst 87,000 hales at the be
ginning of our next crop, and if the doaler
referred to has on hand only 20.000 hales,
this will leave us a surplus of 107.000 bales.
California will grow 100,000 bales thlo year and
New York CO.UtO bales. We will Import at
least 10,000 bales, making with surplus on
hand 277. 0C0 bales. As our consumption Is
only 210,000 bales we would already .have a
surplus, not counting Oregon and Washing
ton, of 37,000 bales In the United States.
"Hut say wo export 80,000 bales, which Is
very doubtful, ae Kngland has had two suc
cessive small crops, and as usual will re
cover on the third, mo6t likely, we will then
huve left, not counting a bale from Oregon
or Washington. 107,000 bales."
Mr. Rooney estimates Washington will grow
at lea.t 40.000 bales, making with the 1007
surplus, 237,000 bales, against a normal
consumption of 240.0CO balrs. which, because
of the prohibition movement, is likely to be
reduced at least '80.000 bales to 210.000. In
other words, Ignoring Oregon production en
. tlrely, there will be a surplus of 27,000 bales
at the next harvest. Oregon, at. the very,
least, he says, will produce 100,000 bales
(and possibly 150,000 bales) and on the lower
estimate It will leave a surplus of 127,000 bales
to be carried over to th 1000 crop, larger by
10.000 bales than at the beginning of the IOCS
crop. ,
Therefore, his advice is that . the growers
who are carrying 1907 should ' get out from
urder without delay, as he predicts the time
is not far distant when "cents per pound"
will be a -thing of the past, and all deals
will bs made on the bas-ls of "so much per
bale."
lXrCAL GRAIN MARKET VERY DUTX.
Former Prlcea Quoted. But Farmers Are
Slow Kellers.
The grain markets were very dull yester
day. Wheat buyers quoted last week's
prices, but reported offerings by farmers
decidedly light. It is evident. In the pres
ent mood of holders, that buyers will have
to raise their bids before, much business re
sults At the moment, however, the market
wears a sick look, and as long as Argentina
continues such a heavy shipper, there is not
much chance for improvement.

Eastern Prune Market Poor.
Trade advices received from the East note
a, most unsatisfactory condition in the prune
market. While the situation, under normal
conditions, - would be regarded as strong,
statistically. In view of the lightness of Job
bers' holdings and the depleted condition of
stocks on the Coast, the market has never
theless been weakened by the pressure to
sell, with no corresponding vigor to the de
mand. Eastern jobbers are making an ef
fort to clean up' their supplies of 1900 stock,
and this, together with the lots rejected or
turned down out, of the 1907 crop, -consequent
on the financial stringency in Novem
ber and December, has a depressing- effect
on values. Pricos are, of course, more or
less nominal, owing to the dullness of tirade.'
Eggs Decline Steadily.
The egg market shows increasing weakness
because of the liberal arrivals and slow buy
ing. Most of the business was done around
24 cents, but one house cleaned up late in the
day at 23 cents.
The poultry market was in good shape for
the few coops received, and steady prices are
looked for this week. ,
The surplus of butter on Front street- is
not as large as a week ago and the ton of
the market Is. In that degree, improved. The
city creamery market is quoted steady to
firm.
Freeh Produce Demand Good.
Business was of good proportions in the
fruit and vegetable line, yesterday. The
day's receipts Included one car each of tan
gerines and sweet potatoes,
San Francisco advioes reported several cars
of Eastern onions about . due there, which
took soma of the firmness out of that market.
Locally the onion trade was quiet. Potatoes
are dragging, with no tops of a resumption
In activity unless a lower freight rate to
Southwestern points can be secured.

PRESSED FOR SALE
Stocks Put on the Market at
Declining Prices.
FEELING OF APPREHENSION
Speculators' Faith in the Karly
Restoration of Normal Condi
tions Is Shaken Weakness
. in the Bond Market.
NEW YORK, Feb. 10. The activity In
atocks. which revived towards the end of last
week, was notably extended today In the form
of selling orders and a deep cut waa made in
prices jn the course of the day's" operations.
Stocks were industriously pressed for sale
from all sides and as the demand was quite
Inadequate to absorb these sales, there was a
rapid decline In prices, with only oocaelonal
check caused by the operations of professional
operators.
There was no striking new item of news to
account for the apprehensive spirit reflected
In the action of the market, but it was due
to accumulative effect from misgivings felt
for some time," while the influence on prices
was aggravated by the sudden abandonment
of a position on the-long side of the market
which had been persisted in by" a speculative
element. That element has been hopeful that
the episode of last Fall In the country's
finances was due to causeless fesrs and mis
conception of the true strength of the bank
ing position, and .that Its effect on general
trade and business was immediately to pass
away with the demonstration of the causeless
ness of the fears which prompted what was in
effect a universal run on the banks of the
country. It is a trial of the faith of these
looking for this quick revival of Industry when
the money situation has become normal again
to face the'returns of continued shrinkage in
railroad traffic, reduction of factory forces
and general lethargy In demand for products.
The resulting discouragement is having the ef
fect of driving some of the former hopeful
speculators to the other extreme, where they
profess to see only gloom and prospects of
an indefinite prolongation of the depression.
Such a position is quite characteristic of a
large class of speculative operators.
The Impression of hostile influences on the
side of politics was heightened by the official
recommendations for greater rigor in the col
lection of the stock transfer and franchise
taxes in New York state. Declining railroad
earnings brought Into question future dividend
disbursements. The shrinkage in profits also
adds to the importance of the large financing
which presses upon many corporations for set
tlement. The Friday sale of New York City bonds is
looked to as an important Index of conditions
in the bond field. A pronounced success for
that issue at liberal premium would be greatly
reassuring, but the recent decline In the older
New York bonds with the approach of the sale
has affected confidence In the outcome. The
decline in the older city bonds was arrested
today In spite of the general weakness. The
principal eufferers in the day's losses were
stocks .which have been favorite mediums for
a previous speculation for a rise. Some of
the day's declines outside of these will be
found moderate.
Bonds were weak. Total sales $2,006,000.
United States 2s registered advanced hk PeT

Bearish Most of
the Day.
CHICAGO, Feb. 10. Wheat opened on
general profit-taking, based on declines in
European markets, and on the bearish char
acter of the weekly statistics. World's ship
ments were mere than 500.000 bushels In ex
cess of what had been estimated, and the
amount on passage Increased 3,512,000 bush
els. There was a mild rally during the first
hour, due to covering by shorts, but the
market again weakened about the middle of
the day and sentiment continued bearish
the remainder of the session. The heavy
tone of the New York stock market had a
depressing Influence late In the day. The

and then declined to 0096c. The close

Oregon Growers Urge Fulton to Op
pose National Aid to Prohibition.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 10. (Special.)
Nearly 1500 hopgrowers have signed
telegrams to Senator Fulton asking
him to oppose National legislation in
tended to aid In the enforcement of
Prohibition laws In force In the several
states. It Is believed by the liquor peo
ple that this showing on the part of
the hopgrowers of Oregon will convince
Senator Fulton that Oregon Is not in
sympathy with the Prohibition move
ment, and that the interests of his own
state will be best subserved -by his
acting In conjunction with those who
oppose the "dry" wave that Is sweep-,
ing the country. Many of the telegrams
have already been forwarded, while
there are hundreds still here ready to
be gent.
Conrad Krebs, a prominent hopgrow
er and dealer, has had cha'rge of the
work fit securing the signatures of
growrs and forwarding , the telegrams.
Formal telegrams were printed on tele
graph blanks and mailed -to 1500 hop
growers, with the request that they
sign the same and return to Mr. Krebs
by mall. Mr. Krebs says that not all
the growers have responded, but the
greater number have done so. In al
most every Instance, the grower who
responded signed the telegram.
.."In a few instances, perhaps a dozen
in all," says Mr. Krebs, "the growers
replied that they do not believe In the
liquor business, that they want the Pro
hibition movement to succeed and that
they will not sign telegrams asking Sena
tor Fulton to oppose the movement. They
say that if the Prohibition movement destroys-
the hop industry they are will-

MOB OVERPOWERS TROOPS
Takes Negro Prisoner From Militia
and Lynches Hlra.
BROOKHAVEN, Miss., Fe'lj. 10. Ell
Plggott, a negro, was taken from the
custody of a Jackson military company
and a posse of deputies and hanged early
today. The miltary company was over
powered by a mob of over 2000 citizens. A
number of shots were fired and two mem
bers of the mob were wounded. Piggott
was accused of assaulting Mrs. Willams.
a young white woman, several days ago,
and was to have been tried today for his
crime.
Piggott reached Brookhaven from Jack
son shortly after 7 o'clock, in custody of
Sheriff Frank E. Greer and under the
heavily armed escort of the Capitol Light
Guards of the state, ordered into service
by Governor Noel to protect the negro
during the trial.
When the soldiers and the negro pris
oner alighted from the train, the furious
mob surrounded them instantfy and a
fierce hand-to-hand conflict ensued. The
soldiers clubbed the members of the mob
with their guns. The fight lasted only
five minutes and the militia started with
the prlsonor to the courthouse, when the
mob, reinforced and reorganized and
utterly infuriated, rushed for the prisoner,
dragged him to a pole and hanged him.
THANKS NORTHERN PACIFIC
President of Merchants National
Bank Appreciates Friendly Action.
Appreciation of the friendly action of
tlie Northern Pacific Railway Company
In helping out the Merchants National
Bank was expressed yesterday by Presi
dent Watson, of the closed institution.
The bank was the local depository of
Northern Pacific funds and throughout
the trouble the railroad company was
very loyal to the institution. '
"When the run started on the Mer
chants National Bank," said President
Watson, "the Northern Pacific, instead
of withdrawing its deposits, kept increas
ing them. By the time our bank was
forced to close, the Northern Pacific had
three times its normal deposits and was
in fact the biggest depositor we had.
This certainly showed the good will of
the company and that it wanted to help
us all it could.
."Not only that, but when we asked the
company, together With other depositors,
to sign for time 'certificates in lieu of a
part of its deposit, the officials imme
diately signed up for the total amount
of the Northern Pacific balance, to
gether with fcrafts they held from the
Merchants National drawn on New York.
The bank fully appreciates the treatment
it has received from the Northern jra
ciflc Railway."
