GROWERS' POOR OUTLOOK Englishmen Vainly Trying to Get Relief From Their Government, AY bile Brewers .Fill Storage Rooms at Iledroek Prices. The English h'ipBnweis have -worked themselves up Into a frenzy over what they term the "dumping" of American hope on their market. They are still holding indig nation mtinjrs in the various hop counties an4 loudly clamoring tor relief from the government in the shape of a -iO-shilllnjr tariff on imported hops. The parliamentary Investigating committee has held nessions f r two months pant and heard a lot of evi dence, hut an most of the commlsalonflrs are free traders, nothing Is expected to come of the inquiry- Some t ran ice statements have been made by English irrowera at the committee hear ings. The burden of most of the evidence .has been that Oregon and California grow ers can produce hops cheaper than the Knpltsti planters, because the labor on this toa t Is d one by Oh i nese. A Cra nbrook grower and brewer named Winch declared to the committee: "1 have letters begging me to buy 20,000 buiea of 1906 Oregon at 2im a cwt. I won't have them they're like so many black currant leaves." The Hop growers' Defense Association stated that re turns it has received from every parish, in Kent shows that 51524 acres of hops have been grubbed since October :Oth last. The committee says that immediate action (s necessary to save the industry from utter ruin. At a mass meeting in Canterbury, it was proposed that a delegation of 50,000 hop-pickers march to lndon, surround the House of Commons and proclaim their grievance. While the English growers are making ell this outcry, they overlook the fact that one principal cause of the depression Is the fact that more hops are produced annually, even with the industry languishing in Eng land, than are required. America is not dumping more hops in England than for merly, in fact, the shipments run about the same year after year. The English- brewers are at the bottom of the trouble. Where they once used several pounds of hops to t he barrel of beer, they now follow the American brewery method of using only a fraction of a pound. On both sides of the Atlantic the brewers make a practice of stocking up heavily when prices are cheap and with their storage facilities they are Independent of the market when hops are scarce. The English beer-makers are now providing against the lean years of the future, many of them having an lS-months supply, and some of them a reserve stock sufficient fop 24 months. H. E- Freeman, manager of the London office of Klalrer. Wolf & Netter, haa been tolling the Englishmen a few things they did not know before, in a. recent issue of the London Morning Leader, Mr. Freeman said: There are several causes for this depres sion. The brewers do not buy so freely as they used to. The consumption of hops in this country has declined from cwts. in I'.mh, to 5T0,St;o In 1JHJ6. The foreign impor tations have also something to do with the depression. Hut there Is another cause of greater -con-setu-nee, viz., the system of cold storage v which the hrewers are made practically independent of the new crop, in the old days, the brewer was forced every year to buy new hops to mix' with the old ones. Now he is independent, because he can bring hope of older date out of cold store, which ere practically as good as new hops. In proof of what he saJd about the sale rf goods below the cost of production, Mr. Freeman mentioned that good English cop per hops wrtre heiug offered on the English market today at from oAs to 45s per cwt., which oi, to pick and market alone, 30s a cwt., thus leaving practically nothing for expenses up to picking time. So much Is being said aa to American 'dumping" of hops that It is worth noting that, according to Mr. Freeman, Pacific Coa.it hops are fetching practically the same prices as the fame quality of English goods. The price of pacifies, he said, on this mar ket today Is il? to 4"'S per cwt. That Is prac tically the same as English hope of the same qurtllty. - Mr Freeman has his own Idea of the genes-ia of the Adriatic shipment. "These bnp." be pointed out. '"are HHWt goods, which, hclaiiR t.v ruul R. (1. Horst. They wore bought by him in the season 10O8 at very high prices. He had speculated on t hm. and had been holding on to them, although the market has been going against him., and nw Mr. Horst believes that a duly on hop may be Imposed at any mo ment In England; and with that idea he has sent all these yenrllngs over here. He will probably hold them In the expectation of a duty belnc put on hops which will enable him to ohtain a higher price for them. It la quite an abnormal Incident which Tins never been known before in the history of the hop trade, and will never probably be known again. As a matter of fact Ameri can imports of hops, taking a series oft. ears, are stationary. The American grower cannot extract much comfort ' from the reports of depres sion In England. The cause of the present condition is world-wide, and the only rea son they make so much noise about it is because they feel it keener there as hop growing Is more costly in England than anywhere else. Too many hops are raised, in Oregon and tn every other country, and there must be a general readjustment of supply to demand before the Industry again becomes profitable to any but the short sell ers. The latter are so sure the UHiS mar ket will be an exceedingly low one. owing to overproduction, that they are already making contracts with brewers to deliver Oregon hops in the Fall at prices several cents leas than growing co-st, ajid these shorts figure on making a handsome profit on the transaction. ORA(iK MARKET W11X ADVANCE. Culifornta's Supply off Navels la Almost Kx ha uted. According to California advices received yesterday, a sharp advance in the orange market is imminent. Navels will be practically cleaned up by May t, less than 500 cars re maining In the state. Seedllnga and sweets are very ftrmly held by growers and packers. Three cars of oranges reached Portland yes terday. Threeoara of bananas came In in fine con dition. A car of Eastern Oregon apples waa unloaded and another car Is to arrive. About U0 crates of strawberries were received and they sold at $l-75Jf225 per crate. Small vegetable were in plentiful supply and generally steady In price. A car of Texas onions was received and quoted at the former price. NKL1JNG OFFERS AT BOARD OF TRADE lrtod Attendance of Grain Men at Morning SrMslon. There was a good attendance of grain men at the Board of Trade yesterday and a fair amount of business was done. Only a few produce dealers were on the floor. Anionic the out-of-town members who were present were J. M. Shelley, of the Eugene Mill Jt Elevator Company, and "V W. Ray mond, of the Peacock MLjls, at Walla Valla. The following offers to sell were posted: 2dv000 pounds prunes, sacked, 4 He; 145 pounds dried apples, 8c f. o, h. Sheridan; 10 caaea candled eggs, 17 He; 1 drum Wisconsin Swiss cheese, ISHc; 5 cases block Swiss cheese. ITHc. Wheo Firm but No Higher. , Ko further advance was made in local wheat zrloe yesterday, ChougJb. treat strength was shown by markets elsewhere. Prices here are still above export values and are set by tbe operations of millers and buyers for the California trade, who assert that conditions do not yet Justify any rise in prices. There were no new developments in the foreigfn flour situation. Oats and bar ley were firm and unchanged. YAH BECOME FIRM ONCE MORE. Poultry in Good Kupply. bat Hard t More. Batter Piling Vp. Eggs turned Arm on Front street yester day and sales were made at 17 and 17 H cents. The local demand was fair, but there was not much shipping inquiry. Re ceipts were light. A moderate supply of poultry was offered, but buyers were slow. Some sales of fanfcy hens were reported at 15 cents, the general run going at 14 cents. A weak tone prevails In the Front-street butter market as receipts are larger than the demand. The city creameries quote their market steady. Bank Clearings.

NEW YORK, April 12. The most Import ant Influence in the tock market todar iru the S-iO.OOO.OOO Pennsylvania bond Issue, an nouncement of the details of which stamped It as of first-rate Importance in its bearing on the financial situation, present and pros pective. This Importance was attached to it primarily, because It marks the first sale of a long-time security by the railroad cor poration In a period of many months, during which recourse has been had necessarily . to short-term note issues bearing enormous rates of interest. The sale of a long-term railroad bond Issue to a syndicate of bankers, therefore, was regarded as highly significant of the definite period of an era of impaired or sus pended credit for railroad corporations which made severe difficulties for them in the carrying on of Important activities in Improving and extending their capacities. The fact of a large portion of the new bonds having been placed abroad aroused hopes of the opening of a way to tap the great stores of foreign capital to aid in the resumption of profitable activities In this country. The Pennsylvania issue, at first-rate security bearing 4 per cent, and sold at a discount of several points, shows some marked con trasts with the stagnant money markets which facilitated the Vanderbllt refundlngs in March of 1&7. The day's market was dull and reflects no expansion of interest beyond the narrow pro fessional limits in which It has been held for sometime. Money on call was slightly firmer, influ enced by the large engagements of gold for export, which reached $5, 500.000 for tomor row's French steamer. Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $:i,3O8,0O0. United States bonds were unchanged on call. . . CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales.

NEAR OPTION IN DEMAND Small Receipts In North-west and Firnuiess of European Markets Give It Strength New Crop News Affects Future Sales. CHIOAGO, April 22. The market for wheat, though Irregular, was decidedly strong the first half hour, owing to an urgent de mand for the May option. Small receipts In the Korthwest and the firmness of European markets were the factors on which thade mand was chiefly baaed. Liberal sales or the July and September deliveries and late news regarding the new crop in the Southwest, tended to offset the effect of congestion in May. The market closed irregular. May be ing firm and July and . September barely steady. May opened a shade to o higher at W4 6 9:c. advanced to m'o and closed at Mc. July sold between 7Hc and 88c, and closed at Corn was weak almost all day because of heavy selling of the July and September deliveries by leading commission-houses. The bull leaders made little pretense of support ing the market. May. opened He lower at 6ouc, sold at ATc and then de clined to oAfcc and closed at 66 oofte. Oats were firm early in the session, owing to the bulfre In wheat, but the late weakness of corn had a depressing effect. May opened He higher at 53Hc And closed steady at S3c.
