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.

BULLS IN CONTROL
Stock Prices Are Persistently
Pushed Upward.
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.

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.

Japans' Struggle With Panic.
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
