17 THE MORNING OREGOXIAX, THURSDAY, JTJXE 25 190S. NO QUASSIA STOCKS Market Is Bare of This Hop Spraying Materia!.- TOO LATE TO GET SUPPLY Importers Failed to Order Any of Ue Wood, Thinking It Mould Xot Be Needed I.atest Ilt-cr Statistics. Orepron hopfrrovrrs who did not carry over from last year a supply of quassia chip for spraying will hav to do without the material this year, for the market Is bare of It. It is said there Is not a pound of quassia in wholesale hands on the Pacific Coast. The importers neglected, to lay In a supply, believing, from the discouraging reports of the hop trade, that there would not be enough hops grown to Justify the Importation even of a 'small quantity. Within the past few days orders have been coming in from Valley points and. from the Sound for quassia chips, but It Is too late now for the wholesalers to secure a supply before August 1, and the spraying season will be over by that time. Spraying Is usually done In the Northwest between July 1 and July 15. After hops are In the burr, spraying is useless. If weather condi tions should be right, which Is seldom the case, the vines would not require treatment, but all careful growers like to have a quantity of the material on hand for an emergency. "Although there are no qurfssia chips for ale," said 'William M. Whelan yesterday, "I think It will be found that most of the farmers have & sufficient supply on their farms to tide them over this year. Because of the shortage a few years ago, the ma jority of growers took the precaution last season to buy heavily. Those that have no chips will have to resort to other spraying materials." . DECREASE IX BEER COXSOrTTIOX Government Flfrnrea Show the Greatest Falling Off in May. Government figures Just received on the beer tax paid In May show the most serious shrinkage since the beginning of the pres ent year. The decrease In consumption, as compared with May, 1907, was 522,889 bar rels, or 14,320 barrels greater than the de crease in March, which was the banner month in this respect, of the year. The to tal decrease for the five months of 190S has been 1,371,011 barrels. The consump tion of beer in the five months compare with lest year as follows: 10O7. 1!WS. Decrease.

The spread of prohibi tion had no apparent effect In checking Its growth, es was shown by the Government returns of last year, and It was not until depressed business conditions began to be felt in the East that there was a falling off In the consumption. Climatic conditions have had something to do with the curtail ment of the brewery trade, but what has hurt It most has evidently been the clos ing down of factories and mills In the manufacturing centers. Until business re vives' there Is not likely to be any increase In boer sales. PLENTY OF FRTTT OF A IX KINDS Market Is liberally 6 applied 'With a Good Assortment, but Buying Is Slow. Although Front street Is liberally stocked wltn a full assortment of fruits, there be ing nothing In the list that Is not now available, the demand continues slack and supplies are moved with some difficulty. - A general scaling down of prices has been found necessary. The sharpest cut waa made yesterday in cantaloupes. Some old stock that had been carried for several days was sold at $1.23 per crate, while fresh goods were quoted at $2 2. 25 per crate. Most other California fruits sold close to the former prices. Strawberries are playing out fast, and the trade will be glad when the season Is over, as the attention of buyers will then be turned to other lines. A mixed car of Cali fornia decldous fruits was distributed yes terday, containing apricots, which were quoted at $1.15, Tragedy prunes at $1.25 Simona plums at $1.25, Red June at $1.10 and Abundance at $1 per crate. Three cars of oranges and one car of lemons also ar rived. No Nmr Feature) la Country Produce, The country produce markets fail to show any new feature. Supplies are sufficient for local requirements, but the buying- is not of a nature to 'justify any changes iu quota tions. Retailers are showing more interest in poultry than they did last week, but object to paying more for it. While the street Is no longer burdened with an egg surplus, this fact does not give the market any degree of firmness. Butter moves freely at the established quotations and cheese is steady, notwithstanding the free arrivals. Cereal Markets Qtiiet. The grain markets do not show much sign of activity. Wheat Is especially dull with prices entirely nominal. An easy feel ing pervades the oats and barley markets, in which the movement Is slack. The ex port flour demand oontlnuea very light. Salmon Brought Back From Europe. The strong position of the canned salmon market in New York Is shown bv the fact that nearly 50C0 cases of red Alaska salmon have Juet been reimported from England. They were bought in London at a cost equal to $1.42 lauded in New York. Sales of New pack Columbia Kiver salmon are reported from New York at $i tor flats? and $1.& for talis delivered, with the market firm. Bunk Clearings.

NO DISPOSITION TO TRADE Illness of Congressman Sherman and Death of Ex-President Cleve land Add to Gloom Xo More Gold Exports. NEW YORK. June 24. The complexion of the stock market today took on a color lesa hue and the trading flank almost to the point of Idleness. A large proportion of the day's scanty total of shares transferred were sold In the first hour of the session. This little spurt of activity subsided Imme diately and practical stagnation ensued. The extreme dullness Is not unseasonable. There were Items In the daily news which prompted a mood of dwelling on the muta bilities of human affairs and the uncer tainty of assuming an outcome seemingly In prospect. The serious illness of the Repub lican nominee for Vice-President seemed to have the effect of emphasising the situation Incident 'to the progress of a political cam- paign. while the death of ex-President Cleveland came as something of a shock to the public and had a material influence in deeping the prevailing mood. The an nouncement of the booking of return passage from Kurope for J. P. Morgan for tomorrow confirmed the assurances of the purely personal and family ground for his sudden return to this country In the midst of his usual foreign vacation. News of the discontinuance of diplomatic relations be tween the United States and Venezuela was Ignored, apparently. Weather news is scanned with constant attention and any movement In the com modities markets that may be relied on as a true index of crop conditions is looked for closely. London was said to be a buyer of stocks here on a moderate scale and this helped to an early show of firmness. The extreme ease of call money is attrib utable to some temporary accumulations in preparation for the July settlements. No engagements of gold for shipment by to morrow's steamers were made and this would.be the last shipment available lor the July settlement In Berlin. The gold export movement Is considered to be ended Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value, $1. 2.-4,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSINQ STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Pales.

Eugene, Or., June 24. (Special.) At the annual meeting of the Alumni Association yes terday the following resolution was adopted: Whereas, aurini? the recent campaign for the passage of the University appropriation bill statements were made that the alumni and friends of the University of Oregon are opposed to the development and per fection of the public school and high school system of the state, and Whereas, such statements are al together Incorrect. It being a matter of record that the University has always stood as a friend of the entire public school systrm, therefore be It Resolved, by the Alumni Association ot the University of Oregon that we pledge our continued support, both as an organi zation and as Individuals, to all measures that will provide additional funds for the common schools, and also for measures de signed to establish additional hih schools and to perfect these already established. We favor the raising of additional funds for the common schools, by indirect taxa tion as far as possible, and we alro favor the establishment of union high schools, to the end that all pupils who have finished the eighth grade may have nn opportunity of completing a high school course without leaving their homes We believe that the common school fund should be Increased to such an. extent that a very Hr-hool district in Oregon will a'ji to conduct a term of at least eight moni.s durlnsr the school year. 4 W believe that the State of Qrcfin SAN FRANCISCO & PORTLAND STEAMSHIP CO.

PENDLETON, Or., June 24. (Special.) Hermiston is the first town in Umatilla County to go entirely dry as a result of the recent prohibition election. The one lone bar in the new irrigation town was located in the Hotel Hermiston, and as it existed by virtue of a county license, granted before the town was incorporat ed, lt went out of business upon the. ex piration of that license. No attempt was made to secure a license from the Council,- as the hopelessness of securing one for even the few days intervening be tween now and July 1 was realized. Young Widow Tries Suicide. v SHERWOOD, Or., June 24. Mrs. Mis souri Smith, a young widow, recently from the East and in the employ of Henry Marsh, a farmer near town, made an in effectual effort yesterday to destroy her self by drinklnp creosote. Probably the effects of cocaine, administered for the extraction of her teeth, and an exces sive hemorrhage following induced the act. Prompt remedial measures over came the immediate ettect of the poison, and unless complications should arise, recovery is assured. FUEL TRUST SCHEME FAILS XO DANGER NOW OF WOOD AND COAIj COMBINE. Independent Supply Too Large to Be Controlled When Labor Is Plentiful. Threatened organization of a local fuel trilSt hflS hefn nvtfrtflH Qnrillnu tn inna f wood firms, and no danger of a strong eomoine is suspected until next Winter. Failure to control the sources of supply of wood is assigned as the cause of the case of arrested development that has attacked the fuel trust and it has not progressed beyond an embryonic state. With the financial stringency of last Winter, idle men were available in larger numbers than for the preceding year and owners of wood lands did not have difficulty In getting workmen to cut wood as had previously been the case for a long time. With property-owners .and holders of acreage end subdivisions near the city anxious to market their wood in order to get ready money and with a supply of men to cut it, a large quantity of fuel was thrown on the local market from so many sources that the believers in a trust could not control the volume of fuel offered. With many farmers bring ing wood into the city and delivering lt themselves, the wood-dealers realized they had to compete with unusual com petition and abandoned the effort to form a trust, at least temporarily. Wood-dealers say, however, that prices have not been affected, the different com panies charging from $4.75 to $3.25 a cord, according to distances of delivery. Until farmers and property-owners In need of ready cash stop cutting wood and delivering it throughout the city in dependent of the fuel companies, the fuel barons regard lt as futile to try to form an organization to control the supply and prices. Meanwhile, dealers are waiting to see what the Fall and Winter will bring forth and it is considered likely that when the large outside supply of wood stops coming in, city dealers will get together.
