STILL HAVE HOPE
Hop Union Organizers Do Not
Give Up.
HOLD ANOTHER MEETING
Heavy Buying for London Account
by Bents Lachmnnd & Pincus
to Bo Paul Horst's
Representatives.
Th promoters of the hop union plan evi
dently have not given up hope of organizing
the growers, as a meeting will be lie.d at
Salem today at which it is understood ail
the temporary directors of the state will be
present. The general opinion was that the
movement had fallen through, when Conrad
Kreb announced Its failure a, week ago,
but it is said now that the organizers will
try to revive It on a smaller acreage basis
than was first proposed. Whether or not
they can enlist the co-operation of growers
now remains to be seen. It is so plain that
the cause of the depression in the market Is
verprdouction that it would seem the ob
jects of the association should be the reme
dying of this evil and to follow this course
the bylaws as proposed would have to be
radically altered.
The litigation between the Salem firm, of
iAchmund & Pincus and Paul R. G. Horst
fcas been brought to an end, and the several
oases In court dismissed. Lachmund 4b
Pincus will continue in the future to be Mr.
Horst's representative in Oregon. Paul Horst
is the boldest operator the market has ever
known and the trade is curious to learn
what his next move will be, whether he will
take the bear side, or in spite of the handi
cap of his present unprofitable holdings,
launch another bull campaign.
A considerable degree of activity is again
reported in the market at the low level to
which prices have fallen. Henry I Bents,
of Aurora, has in the last few days bought
for London account nearly 1000 bales at
prices ranging from 5 to 5 cents. Hart &
Hubbard are also buying, Henry Hubbard
having secured the I -an 5 St pooler lot of 106
bales at Salem at 5 cents and Ross Wood
getting a lot of 180 bales on the East Side
at 4ft cents.
There Is a little contracting going on on
the basis of 10 and 11 cents for three-year
terms. This forward buying Is to cover
sales previously made by dealers to brewers
and Is not, so far as can be learned, on
speculative account.
Ironmonger of London yesterday cabled
to Isaac Pincus & Sons, of Tacoma:
"Market is showing rather a declining ten
dency. Only a few dealers are in the mar
ket." ORKt.ON APPLES IN LONDON MARKET
Bt N towns Bringing 14s Per Box but
Much Inferior Stock Offering.
The latest weekly apple letter of W.
lennis & Sons, of London, says:
Since our last, we have very little to re
port from this side. With the exception of
Nova Scot lane, there have been very few
apples on the market. We have sold some
few Canadian apples this week. Baldwins
from ISs to 20s. and Greenings from 17s to
28. but the latter variety was not at- all
satisfactory, being very dull In appearance.
With regard to Nova Seotians, we have
bn making from liSs to 16s per barrel for
Baldwins, 15s to ls for Golden Russets
and lis to 14s for Greenings, but the bulk
of this stuff is coming forward in poor con
dition, being undersized and dull in ap
pearance. Maine Baldwins are selling from
13e to 1Kb per barrel.
Watsonvtlle Newtowns have been selling
t $s to 8s 6d for the 4-tler and 0s to 7s
for the 4H- For Oregon the top price ob
tained has been 14s per box, but there has
b?n a loi of inferior quality stuff here real
izing from Ss to Ss Od per box, 4 and 4 Ma
tter. There is a lack of good apples upon this
market, the great bulk of present arrivals
being very poor stufT and prices have been
ery unsatisfactory accordingly. The mar
ket is in good shape, and for anything of
tip-top quality, good prices can be obtained.
MOVEMENT OF EASTERN ONIONS.
More Coming to the Coast Than Expected,
but Market Is Firm.
The onion market was quiet yesterday, but
the few sales made were at the previous
prlre. Farmers are holding firm and will
only part with their goods at full values.
The movement of Eastern onions- proves to
be somewhat heavier than expected, but nan
not affected the market. One car reached
fsnattle recently, but three or four are due
there. Arrivals at San Francisco yesterday
were three can from Oregon and one from
the East.
The local produce market was active and
good progress was made in cleaning up the
previous day's receipts. No carlot arrivals
were reported, but one car each of sweet po
tatoes, cauliflower and oranges are due to
day. LOCAL WHEAT QUOTATIONS DOWN.
Pome tic Flour Is Also Weak and a De
cline In Probable.
Local wheat quotations were reduced 1 cent
all around yesterday. Buying was on a light
scaie ann rarmer s offerings were reported
very small. The trade, however, look for
a freer selling movement soon, owing to the
approach of tax time. There la a feeling
in some quarters that the slump in the world's
markets has about exhausted itself, and a
moderate reaction In prices can be looked
for.
The domestic flour market is weak and a
decline in prices in the next few days Is
probable. There is some inquiry for flour on
export account, but no business of importance
Is na.-wring here, though sales are reported
from the Sound. 1

PERCENTAGE IDLE MACHINERY LESS
Progress Slow in Wholesale and Jobbing
Icpartments.
NEW YORK, Feb. 14. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say:
"There is a steady decrease in the per
centage of idle machinery, especially in the
steel industries, which Increases the size of
payrolls and by raising the purchasing pow
er of the wage-earners, improves retail
trade. Thus far, progress is slow in whole
sale and Jobbing departments, but as retail
stocks are depleted there is more disposition
to place orders for Spring goods. v Reports
are still Irregular, some sections of the
country recovering more rapidly than oth
ers, and a few interior cities record business
even better than at this time last year.
"Hides pursue the usual downward course,
as receipts show the seasonable deteriora
tion in quality, February and late January
saltings finding scarcely any buyers.

BOPS SELL HIGH
New York Issue Brings More
Than Expected.
RECORD NUMBER OF BIDS
Stock Market Shows Much Under
lying Strength, With Pacifies
the Features Forecast of
Bank Statement.
NEW TORK, Feb. 14. The stock market
today was still regarded as largely made up
of a contest between professional parties in
the speculation with very small outside par
ticipation. The contest was waged with
varying fortunes and a good deal of ob
stinacy before each party obtained decisive
advantage. The number of shifts In the
course of the price movement up to noon
was unusual. At that time the bears gave
signs of being discomfited and the ad
vance in prices was quite aggressive.
The sentimental effect of the prominent
stocks which led the advance was consider
able, owing to the large speculative follow
ing always found in those stocks and the
inclination of operators in other stocks to
act in accordance with the movement of the
leaders. Thus, with St. Paul, Union Pacific,
the two Hill stocks and Reading moving
strongly upwards, the bulls had a formid
able Influence enlisted on their side. An ef
fective supplementary force was brought
forward In the United States Steel preferred
issues when the railroad stocks began to
show indications of sagging. There was no
special news to account for the strength
which developed. Closing up of short ac
counts was an effective factor.
Much discussion centered about the New
York City bond sale and current expectation
of a favorable outcome made a sustaining
element In the day's speculation. No details
of the average price of bonds were' avail
able up to the time the stock market closed,
but favorable auguries were drawn from the
large number of bids reported as coming
into the City Controller's office during the
day. News that the number of bidders had
reached the record of 1031. compared with
the previous record total of the September
bids, which reached 8S6, revived the late
strength in stocks. Later the stock market
became pronouncedly dull in the desire to
await information on the bond .sales.
Some remittance from abroad by foreign
ers desiring to participate in the new loan
was an element in the further decline in the
foreign exchange market, in spite of some
selling here for foreign account of
other American securities. Weakness
in the London market for copper
metal did not prevent the copper
Industrials from sharing in the day's rise In
prices. The local money market was un
affected seemingly by the demand to partici
pate in the New Tork City loan, money
continuing to loan on call at almost nominal
rates and the demand for time loans being
light.
Forecasts of the week's currency move
ment pointed to a cash gain in the neigh
borhood of $5,000,000. of which an import
ant portion was yielded by Subtreasury op
erations. This gain, in turn, is mostly due
to presentation for exchange into legal
tenders to serve In their reserves by the
banks of bank notes received in their in
terior receipts. Not only the large cur
rency redemption of bank notes but the
heavy deposits of lawful money at the
Treasury Department reflect the rapid rate
of retirement of bank notes from circulation.
Tomorrow's bank' statement in the new form
will have added Interest from the corapari
sons to be made with the first statement
last Saturday and also to the fact that in
terchanges between the banks and trust
companies, purely In preparation for that
Initial showing, will not throw out the
normal course of the week's banking
figures
The bid of 1.03377 by a syndicate for all
of the 50-year New York bonds ' was un
heralded by any rumor, and in itself secures
a better average price than, that, this ex
ceeding considerably the preliminary esti
mates by bond experts of what the bonds
would bring, which ranged from 1.02 to
a shade above l.Oi. The result clearly ex
ceeded expectations. The Jump in the old
4s to 1.064 at the last on the stock ex
change was testimony to this fact.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value,
$1,928,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

03ii(593c and closed at 93c
