WILL BE INDORSED TODAY Stops Taken Fully to Protect Inter ests of Buyers and Sellers on the Exchange Xorthorn De mand for Butter. The grain rules under which business at the, Board of Trade Is to he transacted, have been Anally completed by the committee appointed for that purpose. At a meeting: of the committee, held at noon yesterday, the finishing touches were put to their work and the reflations will now go before the board of directors for their final approval. The directors will meet today and pass upon the matter. Following the signing of the rules by the different members of the trade, the department will be organized and everything will then be In. readiness tor conducting exchange business on ap proved lines. The rules have been .so thor oughly discussed from every point of view that they can be considered fair to all the Interests concerned. In addition to the provisions previously enumerated In these columns, the committee has fixed the fees of the inspector at $2 per car for Inspection and ?t per car for weighing. It Is provided that any country shipper can demand an official Inspection by the chief Inspector of the exchange at his own expense, notice of which must be given to the consignee at the time of ship ment. The Inspection expenses are to be settled by the receiver for account of the shipper. Where goods are sold on the track for future delivers. 10 per cent must be paid on demand on shippers' weight, the balance to be settled for when the t goods are weighed. At anytime a car is delivered the seller may. at his option, have one or more of his representatives to sample and weigh the grain while the car Is being discharged. A clause will be provided which stipu lates the penalty for not living up to any of these rules. This regulation will be similar to that of alt other grain exchanges. No Important changes were made yester day In the official quotations of the produce or grain departments. The following offers were posted: Offer to buy K0O tone No. 1 feed barley, December delivery, f. o. b. Portland. Offers to sell $00 pounds dried prunes: 3000 pounds Oregon llmburger, 16c; 20 cases full cream cheese, . lKc. AMERICAN HOPS IX. ENGLISH MARKET Abenrdlty of gome of the Statements Made by Ajfitfttom. f The lateet Issue of the Kentish Observer contains the following letter from M, H. Rus & Co. of Ixmdon n the subject of the "dumping" of American hops In Eng land: Sir Gilbert Parker appears to "have been badly Instructed when questioning the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and we shall he obliged if you will Insert this correction, for the hop trade Is quite depressed enough by the licensing bill and to quote such im portation figures In Parliament makes out things even worse than they are. Sr Gilbert said that in The lawt three neks Simk tons . of American .hops . have been dumped "here to be sold at 25s per cwt., and that in the next fortnight something like a further 15,000 tons would be dumped here. The figures are absurd and If uncon tradicted will hurt this market. The total hop imports from ail psrts for the three weeks commencing the 22d of March were only 41,417 cwt.. according to the Board of Trade returns, last week's oniy n cwt. The whole of the hoo Imports from all parts for the whole of thin wpason to date are only 20T.4H3 cwt.. and the former flKure contains the much -talked of big shipment of old American hops which has been made so much of and Is not even on offer. To talk of ir,000 tons (300,000 cwt.) be ing dumped here in the next fortnight is an absurdity. The unsold stock of the United States probably does not reach a quarter of that figure. Our total imports from all tarts have never reached .100.000 cwt. In any one season, except that of tne memoranie famine year, .when England only grew about 120,000 cwts. ORKGON STRAWBERRIES DECLINING But Prices Are St ill Too High to Make Much Business. Oregon strawberries are slowly getting down to popular prices. Because of mo: liberal receipts. the ma met yesterday dropped to Stfli.tO cents per pound. Call fornla berries continued In light supply and sold at $1.75(52 per crate. Heavier arrivals are expected today and from now on. this fruit should be abundant. Cherries do not move well and their size and quality will Itave to improve before there Is much de mand for them. Three cars of bananas ar rived yesterday, also a straight car of Iefftngwell lemons. The lemon market Is very firm here and Is 35 cents higher in California. A car of cabbage was received, besides some small shipments of green truck. A car of California Bermuda onions Is due today. Hop Crop Conditions In New York, Of hop crop conditions In New Tork State, the vVatervllie Times says: With "the mild weather of the past few nay work nas oeen quite general in the hop yards. Grubbing has commenced and th roots fthow up well. having come through the w inter in excellent condition. Wherever the hop yards have been retained they are being worked with the same care as in former years and if the opening up of the hop hills is any Indication of a good yield, the coming; crop bids fair to equal tnose or former years. Northern Demand for Butter. There Is a strong demand for butter for shipment to the Sound and to Alaska, and this Is keeping creamery stocks well cleaned up and prevents any accumulation on Front street. Steady prices are the result. Emr continue firm at the old price. Some dealers are storing and this keeps down the surplus. Very little poultry has come In this week and the market continues firm.

DRIVE BEARS TO COVER Several Railroad and Industrial Is sues Touch the Highest Prices or the Year Preparing for the Harrlman Bond Issue." NEW YORK, May 6. Prices for stocks were advanced again today with every evi dence of effective control of the marHet on the part of the advocates of high prices The buying was largely professional and protective, although the persistence of the advance had the effect of inviting 'me out side participation: Apparently some demand remains to be satisfied from the uncovered ahort interest also, in spite of the heavy purchases for that account whoch have fol lowed' the considerable rise in prices and the bear failures at the stock exchange, which served to sharpen demand from the shorts. it Is evident that bear operations have followed the advance In the expecta tion that It would culminate and thus afford fresh sustaining force for tne market, aa the rise compels their covering. Various railroad and industrial stocks to day touched the highest price of the year. The trans-continental group offered con spicuous examples. The market revolved about the Harrlman issues to a large extent. The report durins; the day that the Union Pacific directors were to meet tomorrow pointed to immediate prospoct of the bond lseue authorized by the stockholders May 5. It la a very common assumption that extensive messures are belns; used to foster the strength In the stock market In prepa ration for this bond lseue. AiTv-ancIng prices for stocks whet the appetite for new issues, whether of stocks or bonds. Additional sales today of' New York City revenue bonds on a 314 per cent interest basis, compared with 3 per cent for the first portion of the issue. Indicated the favoring conditions of the new caoltal issuee. The process of realizing profits in new issues was accompanied by some irregu larity of price movement tn the regular bond market. There was nothing In the money market to account for this or to seem to threaten the success of the Union Pacific bond Issue for lack of abundant money supplies. Discount rates were in clined to yield both In London and Paris, and the rise in the sterling exchange rate at Paris was a measure of the relaxation of the demand from that center on London for gold. The strength of the stock market -was by no means uniform, nor did it spread through the list until after a period of irregularity ahd hesitation. Copper rose in London, and the American Smelting Com pany advanced the price of lead here. Some buying of stocks was baaed on the expecta tion that the Government report on crop conditions to be given out Friday, will prove favorable. Determined support was extended to the market up to the end of the day. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value. .S.KIXi.OOO. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

SEEK ENTRANCE TO CITY Suburbs Want Better Water and Fire Protection. The annexation campaign in the south eastern suburbs. Including sections 7. 8. 17 and 18, and part of section 5, was opened Tuesday night at Woodmere. un der the auspices of the Mount Scott An nexation Club. O. N. Ford presided, and first introduced Green C. Love, who made a plea for annexation to Portland on the ground that the section needed increased water supply, police ana nre protection and sanitary regulations anu street im provements. Mr. Love cited the recent fire at Kern i'arK, which swept away several houses as showing the need of fire protection. These things, he said, would not immediately follow-annexation. but would come in the course of time. John Bain spoke on the moral side of the question, and declared that the cen tral district of Portland needed the puri fying influence of the- residence suburbs to maintain a better public standard of morality. Ben Riesland also talked on the advantages of annexation. It was reported at the meeting that the water company would not be able to fur nish water for irrigation this year, and this was held up as one reason why the district should vote for annexation at the June election, as it would be two years before another vote could be taken on the subject. Those present were almost unanimously in favor of annexation. The next meeting will be held at Woodstock. May 13. Arrangements will be made later for holding an open-air meeting at Kern ; Park. The committee having the campaign in hand will dis tribute annexation buttons. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS MacRae Vert, trustee, et al.. to Her man and Anna K.linKe. tots i to a 14 15 17. block 99.

TOKIO, May 6. The amelioration of the financial depression monopolizes the at tention of capitalist, throughout the coun try. The conditions are ascribed to the addition of government measures without consulting the capitalists. Government bonds are below SO, the standard valuation hitherto has been 90. Financiers are conferring with the finan cial department with the object of restor ing confidence. A banker connected with the movement said to the Associated Press: "Japan's finance does not contains an element injurious to the national credit. The prevalent feeling is due to ignorance of the actual state of the national treas ury, but our delegates have matured plans, the adoption of which will certainly remove suspicion, and an economic im provement will soon- follow. Financiers will shortly pass a resolution which . the government, I am well advised, will ac cept. The result of the present confer ence will be published in June." Tobacco Trust Prosperous. . NEW YORK. May 6. The American Tobacco Company today declared a quarterly dividend of 24 per cent and an extra dividend of 5 per cent. This is unchanged from the corresponding quarter of last 'year."
