LONDON FUR SALES
Prices Are Compared With
Last Year's.
MANY LIMES UNCHANGED
Lower Range of Values la Predicted
at the March Sales, Owing to
' the Lighter American
Demand.
A report of th mid-winter fur sale in
Txindnn has been received by Herman
Metzr, of this city, and local prices on
furs are made to conform to the values
fixed there. The prices established at the
London sales of last March were repeated
on raccoon, civet cat, marten, white fox,
sliver fox, otter, bear and wolf. Muskrat
old 20 per cent higher than in January of
last year, and squirrel, gray fox and cros
fox 20 per cent higher than lat Marh.
Lynx advanced 15 per cent over the March
sales and skunk and badger 10 per ceAt.
The declines were equally numerous, the
greatest being on wolverine, which sold 20
per cent under the price last March. There
was a reduction pf 15 per cent on the
March price of fisher. Red fox, mink, wild
cat and house cat were 10 per cent under
the March figures, while beaver declined 5
per cent from the price realized at the
January, 1007. sale.
Mr. Met2ger said yesterday of the sit
uation: "While the prices realized at the Jan
uary sales In London are seemingly not
much lower, the American demand, owing
to the financial depression, has been very
slow, and lower prices are predicted for the
March sales."
POOR OUTLOOK FOB CASCARA BARK
PeI Is Likely to Be Largely Increased This
Year.
No hopes are held out by buyers for an
early resumption of interest In eascara bark.
The Eastern market is lifeless and all offers
made bring back the reply that manufac
turers are supplied for a considerable time.
It was expected that last Fall the demand
would absorb considerable of the stock held
on the Coast, but the money stringency In
the East prevented manufacturers from
stocking up. Then came the financial flurry,
which seemed to have totally destroyed 'any
demand whatever. The outlook does not
seem very promising for anything but low
prices to prevail, owing to the cheapness of
labor, which will have a tendency to over
stock the market again by the addition of
new bark to the stock of old bark on the
Coast.
Oregon grape root was very scarce in the
Fall, but the supply has since been In
creased, the slackness of work In other
lines setting many people to work digging
this commodity and prices are now largely
nominal.
There Is a good local demand for Oregon
fir balsam when put up In first-class clean
condition.
. HOPS ARE BULL AND WEAKER.
Growers Anxious to Sell and Demand Xm
Slow.
The hop market was exceedingly slow
yesterday and the feeling was weak. A num
ber of good lots are offering on the mar
ket at 5 cents without takers.
The following English trade reports were
re'eei ved yesterday :
Wild, Neame & Co., London Trade Is
again rather quiet. Buyers show little Inter
est beyond covering their actual require
ments. Values are unchanged.
Manger & Henley, London There Is a
fair amount of business doing at about the
same rates, which are very tempting to con
sumers. W. H. & H. Le May. London. S. E. The
low prices that are being accepted to clear
out growths continue to attract the atten
tion of consumers and several Important
lots have been taken. Occasionally choice
hops are Inquired for, when fairly decent
prices are obtained for selected parcels.
J. H. Meredith & Co.. Worcester Trade
remains quiet and the small consumptive
demand montly met out of merchants
stocks, the quantity of growers' hops pass
ing the public scales being quite nominal.
Good co lory samples are scarce and firmly
held.
OREGON ONION MARKET FIRMER
Strong Demand From the So nth and Growers
Are Not Pressing Sales.
A firm tone prevails in the onion market
and more sales at J 2.50, the price asked by
growers, are reported while the Northern
demand Is slow, as the markets there are
well stocked at present, the Inquiry from
the South Is good and is likely to continue
o, for only .a limited quantity of onions
are in transit. Stocks in Oregon are getting
in small compass and only at a few points
can carload lots be secured.
An Invasion of Eastern onions is no longer
feared and the matter proves to have been
more of a scare than anything else As an
experiment. It is believed to have been an
unprofitable one xro the persons concerned.
One car reached the Sound last Friday and
one or two more cars may come along, but
not enough to hurt. Very few cars of East
ern onions have been put on the California
market, and what were sold there were of
a quality that did not put them In compe
tition with Oregon onions.
GOOD SUPPLY OF GREEN PRODUCE
Front Street Stocks of Vegetables and Fruit
Replenished.
Trade was of excellent proportions In the
vegetable and fruit line yesterday, and the
Jobbers had a plentiful supply to work on.
The arrivals, some of which were due the
day before, were two rare of mixed vege
tables, one car of celery, two cars of
oranges and three cars of bananas.
The vegetable receipts were largely made
up of cabbage and cauliflower. Celery was
in strong demand. jSweet potatoes are about
cleaned up on the street.
Of the bananas that came In yesterday two
cars were green and In the other a few
were turning. The feature of the fruit
market Is the good demand for oranges, but
apples also sell well.
NO SNAP TO THE POULTRY MARKET.
Egff Prices Are Held Up by the Demand
Fr-am Alaska.
There were good arrivals of poultry yester
day, but the demand was not particularly
brisk, though previous prices were maintained.
Northern orders for eggs continue to be filled
ana tnese keep the market In steady trim.
The Sound buyers, however, are not so ready
to pay the current prices as they were. The
Immediate future of the market, therefore,
largely depends on the attitude of the North
ern purchasers.
The butter market is steady, with nothing in
sight to Indicate a change In prices soon.
With the city creameries, the supply and de
mand Is about equal, and on Front street the
better grades move freely.

LIFTED BY SHORTS
Covering Operations Send
Stock Prices Upward..
BUT GAINS ARE NOT HELD
Smelting and the Goulds TTnder
Selling Pressure Interest In
the Coming Bids on New
York City Bonds.
NEW YORK, Feb. 13. The early stock mar
ket today presented graphic evidence that an
Important proportion of the conspicuous sell
ing which carried prices downward on Mon
day and again in the closing dealings on Tues
day, must have been rather reckleea opera
tion on the short side of the market. "When
those sellers felt impelled to cover their con
tracts today, they found a scarcity of stocks
offering and a rather mercurial upehoot of
prices resulted. Almost equally striking was
the relaxed tone of the market when the needs
of the uncovered bears had been satisfied.
The Inference pointed to Is that while the
genuine demand for stocks for the present Is
light, the supply offering In liquidation Is
also scanty.
At occasional Intervals there are ealea tn
the market of special stocks that look like
liquidation and this is attributed to some
clearing up of loans in connection with adjust
ment of banking affairs holding over from the
troubled period of last Fall. With, this ex
ception, there does not appear any Important
selling, such ao would suggest a general in
clination among owners to reduce their hold
ings of stocks.
Very positive assertions on Monday that the
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific dividends
would be reduced accompanied the free selling
of those stocks. The declaration of dividends
on these stocks today at unchanged rates ac
cordingly caught an Important short Interest
uncovered, and they were foremost In the ad
vancing tendency. The coalers also were con
spicuous. Not a great deal of activity charac
terized the rise, and the subsequent sag was
preceded by a period of hesitation and dull
ness. Unsettling factors) were the pressure on
American Smelting and violent breaks in sev
eral of the Gould stocks with no apparent sup
port. Speculative operations in American
Smelting are large at all times and the mo
tives difficult to trace, but importance was at
tached to reports today of the retirement of a
conspicuous engineer from the service of the
controlling Interests in this company. The
weakness of the Gould stocks caused the re
vival of former reports of projects for new
financing by those companies. The day's de
velopments bearing on the general situation
were not important. Reports of some addi
tional mill resumptions also were made a fea
ture. - A fall in the price of copper, both here
and in London, was an Incident of the day
that did not conduce to holding prices of se
curities. There were operations1 in the outside market
today in the New York City "when and as
Issued" bonds at quotations from 1.04 to
1.04, which is higher thaH the average price
which bond experts expect to eee the bonds
sell for. A marked stimulation of investment
demand In general. It is believed, will depend
on a figure for the New York City bonds
higher 'than 1.03. That the bonds will be
abundantly subscribed for la taken for granted,
but more attention Is being paid to the price
they will bring. There was no revival of
strength In the later stock market.
Bonds were irregular. Total . sales, par
value, $2,092,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

day, with- the exception of a short period im
mediately after the opening. There was gen
eral selling throughout the session and the

Argentina for the week were 6,800,000 bushels,
which formed a new record for exports from
that country, also weakened prices greatly.

INSURANCE MEN INDICTED
Perjury Charged in Statement of
New York Company.
NEW YORK, Feb. 13. Indictments
alleging perjury were returned today
agralnst ex-Governor Foster M. Voor
hees, of New Jersey, and Frank H.
Combes, following- a grand jury In
quiry Into the acts of these two men
while they were officials of the Bank
ers' Life Insurance Company. Plead
ings to the Indictments will be made
probably on Friday.
The Bankers' Life Insurance Com
pany went out of business -some time
apo, and the allegations have to do
with acts committed prior to 1905 and
while Voorhees was president and
Combes eecretary. In the indictment
lt is charged that in 1904 the presi
dent and secretary swore falsely in
setting forth In a report to the State
Insurance Commission that claimed
dividends were not due to policy
holders. Northwestern People In Xew York.

CLEAR ISSUE II P.UHIQN
REPUBLICANS DECIDED AS TO
STATEMENT NO. 1.
Two Lists of Candidates to Be Voted
for at Primaries to Name Legis
lative Nominees.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 13. (Special.) Indi
cations are that opponents of Statement
No. 1 will have clear sailing in the pri
maries to be held in Marion County three
weeks hence, and that they will also have
undisputed control of the convention to be
held a week later. Advocates of State
ment No. 1 express an Intention not to
participate In the convention or prelim
inary primaries. That Is the natural at
titude of friends of Statement No. 1, for
they take the view that no convention Is
necessary or proper for the purpose of
nominating or Indorsing legislative candi
dates. Should there be a general move
ment for a state convention for the pur
pose of nominating candidates for Presi
dential electors and choosing delegates to
the National convention, advocates of
Statement No. 1 may participate in the
convention to that extent, but, according
to leaders on that side of the issue, they
will not recognize the right of a county
convention to Indorse Legislative candi
dates. It is therefore quite certain that the
convention will Indorse for the Legisla
ture five candidates who are unalterably
opposed to Statement No. 1. It Is also
certain, according to Alonzo Gesner, the
spokesman for the Statement No. 1 peo
ple, that there will also be presented In
the direct primary election a list of five
Legislative candidates who will sign
Statement No. 1, and the issue will thus
be clearly drawn and fought out.
The race for Indorsement will be on in
earnest during the week between March
7, when delegates will be chosen, and
March 14, when the convention will bo
held.

ment No. 1. M. Svarverud spoke for

vitation was extended for those present
to Blgrx up as members of the Lane
County Republican Club, and nearly
every man signed, including some for
mer Democrats.

DOGS. WORRY ASSESSORS
New Problem In- Placing Valuation
on Oregon Canines.
ALBANY. Or., Feb. 13. (Special.) How
to assess dogs Is a problem now worrying
assessors of this part of the state. In
accordance with the act of the last Legis
lature, declaring dogs to be personaNprop
erty, the assessors are required to list
them on the tax roll this year and the
way to classify, describe and value them
Is causing an extra expenditure of
thought and Is adding to the manifold
burdens of the assessors. County Assessor

laborating with the makers of tax rolls
of adjoining counties on the problem.
The main difficulty will be In describ
ing adequately this new class of property.
"Rover, Township 12 South, Range 3
West." or "Tiger, Lot 2, Block 68, Al
bany," are suggested .forms. Or John
Jones may be assessed with "one black
water spaniel," or Mrs. Smith with "one
bow-legged bulldog. .
Dogs range in value from 10 cents to
J2B0, and lt Is expected the value win re
lower about the first of March than at
any other period of the year.
The law under which the assessors are
obligated to place dogs on the tax rolls
is known as the shortest act ever passed
bv an Oregon Legislature. It was H. B.
271 at the session of 1907 and reads as fol
lows: "Be it enacted by the people of
the State of Oregon: Section 1. Dogs are
hereby declared to be personal property."
