English View of Proposed Hop
Protection.
COMMITTEE STILL SITS
Kentish observer Declares Growers
Can Get No Relief Until Unionists
Get Back to Power Active
Trade in Fruits.
At this distance it is impossible to say
what action will be taken by the British
Ifovernment in the matter of the proposed
40s duty on American and other imported
hops, but Judging from the .comment of the
English papers there is not much prospect
of the growers getting the desired relief,
which, while it might help them materially,
would give a body blow to the hop industry
of Oregon. The Kentish Observer, published
In the heart of England's principal hop
producing section, sa.ya editorially:
It is said to be "understood on excellent
authority" that while the majority of the
eelect committee on the hop industry, being
pledged to free trade, cannot see their way
to recommending an import duty on foreign
hops, there is a general feeling in favor of
legislation compelling the foreigner to mark
his hops, and also against the nee of hop
substitutes and suDnlements. We of this
I Journal have never expected that the com
mittee would support the demand for a auty
It would be hardly likely that anything
In the nature of protection even for such a
special and limited industry as hopgrowing
would be conceded by Radicals steeped to
the lips in Co bd en ism. Whether the two re
forms' which the committee Is said to be
favoring would be of much help to the in
dustry remains to be seen. The marking act
ought certainly to be extended to foreign
hops, and the use of snbstitutes for hops in
brewing should be regulated by" law, though
we question very much whether a pure ber
bill would be of any great advantage to the
growers. As we have so often declared,
only an Import duty could restore prosperity
to the industry, and this will never come
until the Unionists get back to power.
The Parliamentary select committee con
tinues to hold sittings at Iondon and will
probably sit all Summer. At one of Its
recent sessions, the star witness was John
Gretton, a member of the Bass firm. Mr.
Gretton is also a member of the commit
tee. He said that It was necessary for his
firm to purchase only the best material and
with them price was a secondary considera
tion. The qualltv of the English hop 'was
slowly but steadily deteriorating. Year by
year they found it more difficult to buy fine
Knglish hops.. The reason for the deteriora
tion, in his opinion, was the method of cul
tivation in order to produce a large crop,
which had resulted in overforcing the plant.
He agreed that there was a decreased de
mand for hops used in brewing, and thought
It would be a good thing for the hopgrow
ers, the brewers and the public if the use
of substitutes was prohibited. If the price
of hops were increased owing to a duty of
4s, the cost per barrel of beer to the
brewer would be increased 7,d or 8d. rIn
the case of Bass the extra cost would be
Is 3d per barrel.
G. Bird, hop factor, attributed the depres
sion In the hop industry mainly to over
production, although he pointed out that
there was also a smaller demand, owing td
Improved methods of brewing. He regarded
a 4Mi duty as likely to be only a temporary
1 0 palliative.
FRESH FRUITS ARK IX DEMAND.
New Apples and Fre Peaches Anions; the
Latest Offerings.
TheYe was an active demand for all kinds
of fresh fruits yesterday and prices were
well maintained throughout the list. The
day's arrivals included a car of canta
loupes and a mixed car of peaches and
plums. The first new apples of the season
were received from California and" were
quoted at $2 per box. A small shipment of
Triumph freestone peaches was also re
ceived and brought $1,40 per box.
The strawberry market ruled firm all
day. At the morning market sales were at
$1.201.65 per crate and price quoted on
the street were $1.401.75. Practically
everything cleaned up. Some of the offer
ings showed the effect of the rain, but gen
erally the berries were in fine condition.
A, shipment of Mercd tomatoes was re
ceived and brought $1.22 per box. Coach
ella and Brawley tomatoes are quoted, at
$2.25 per crate.
IMPROVEMENT IX THE HIDE MARKET
i'rioem Have Not Been Materially Advanced,
but Feelins Is Better.
There is considerable Improvement noticed
in the hide market. Prices have not been
. materially advanced, but there Is a better
feeling all around. The Eastern demand Is
steadily enlarging and the effect is shown
In the stronger markets on this Coast. Ad
vices Xrom Chicago under date of June 13,
follow:
The domestic hide market continues
strong, although the Increase in receipts of
cattle during the first part of the present
week has led tanners to believe that prices
on packer hides will not advance any
further, and they are holding out of the
market as a rule at the increased rates
that are named by the packers. Tanners of
late have been operating more heavily In
foreign hides, -which they have been able to
secure to good advantage, even after paying
the duty. Reports - are current that total
salee of wet salted River Plate hides to one
tanner aggregate 0,000. Chicago packers
are asking high prices for late salting hides,
and are holding native Bteers at lMVfec,
heavy Texas at lftc, butt brands and Colo
rados at 12c, branded cows at 10c and
heavy native cows at 10c. About 50,000
were sold at these advanced prices. Country
hides have shown more activity during the
paet week, and prices have stiffened up on
these somewhat. The receipts of common
varieties of Latin-American dry hides con
tinue small and the market is firm on those
at the last, advance of hie.

HAY PRICES ARE EASING OFF.
Large Crop of Cheat Wilt Have a Tendency
to Keep All Values Down.
Hay prices are easing off as the time for
the marketing of the new crop approaches.
Dealers expect new hay to open at quota
tions materially less than those now cur
rent. There will be a big crop of cheat this
year, and as this always ranges around $10.
It will have a tendency to keep prices on
timothy down. Last season there was
hardly any cheat marketed, the crop having
been frozen out.
There Is only a nominal local demand for
oats and barley and these markets are
weak.
Trading in the wheat market has become
very quiet since the California demand fell
off.
Country Produce Trade Drags.
There was not much life in the country
produce market. Receipts of poultry were
large and as the demand was small, prices
were weak all around. Eggs drag along at
the previous quotation.
Butter continues firm without change in
price. The cheese market is inclined to be
weak.

JET CHANGE SMALL
Stock Trading and Price Move

IN PROFESSIONAL HANDS
Bulletins FVom Chicago Convention

ter Crop Reports Have
Some Influence.
NEW YORK. Juno 1R. The narrow re
striction of the price movement continued
to be the feature of the stock market to
day. Yesterday's downward tendency was
not far extended before the movement
turned and prices hardened again. Dealings
were so Insignificant in volume that the
fact in Itself deprived the movement of im
portance. Professional operations of the
smaller sort apparently made up the whole
market
Bulletins from the Republican convention
were made the bf.sls of some of the oper
ations of this kind. The adding of some
quaiirying pnrases to the antl-lnjunction
plank of the platform, as first- presented to
the committee, and the Inclusion of a pro
testation of party devotion to the authority
and integrity of the Judiciary were hailed
as an evidence of control over radicalism.
Opinion over the wheat crop prospects
also had an Influence in the recovery of
prices from the early depression. Immedi
ate weather news indicated a passing of the
conditions from which damage has been
feared.
The views of the steel trade Journals
on the eATects of the cut in prices of pro
ducts were not hopeful, and another decline
In the price of copper metal In London
was reported. The metal stocks, however,
were prominent in the late recovery of
prices. The money market here continued
easy.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $2,855,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.
