Strong Demand Coming
California.
From
BARLEY MARKET FIRM
Opening of the Hop Markft Expect-
ed Dally Active Inquiry for
Fresh Frnlts Dairy Pro
dace Is Firmer.
Ther la a good California demand for
oat which I keeping price up firmly. Tn
local consumption demand 1 alio good and
la likely to Increase, as the season progresses
and railroad development work start. What
has given most strength to the market Is
the fact that practlcallr no oats of the old
ercp wera carried over, whereas a fair sur
plus was confidently expected. Buyers have
therefore been compelled to depend almost
mli-elv on offerings of new oata Prices
quoted yesterday were $2S.80e:9 per toir
for No. 1 white and I27.Oi2S for gray.
At the Board of Trade the feeling wa de
cidedly strong, bid showing an advance of
ZH cent over Saturday" close.
Barley Is also firm but rather Quiet, a
offering are light.
There was a weaker tendency In the
wheat market at the Board of Trade. The

HOF BALING HAS BEGUN.
Actual Opening of the Oregon Market Ex
pected Any Iay.
Hop-plcklng Is In full swing In all parts
of Oregon today. The weather could not be
better for the harvest and the few samples
that have already come In show almost per
fect quality. Whatever may be the quantity
raised it is a certainty that the Oregon crop
of 190S will be superior In quality. In a few
yards where picking began early in the week
some progress has been made In baling. The
opening of the market may be looked to.
any day now.
There were no reports of business In this
state yesterday, but between 500 and 6uO
bales were sold in Washington at 6i and T
cent.
In Its Issue of August 27 ths Kentish Ob
server, said of tbe Br.gllth crop:
The condition of the hop crop la hardly so
favorable a a week ago. The low temi-rarure
that prevailed all lent week encouraged the
mould, which In some grounds has become
serious. Added to this is the damage caused
by the boisterous winds of the last few days,
the hops In exposed plantations being bruised,
an I branches broken ofT. There Is little doubt
that the general qualMy will not be so nni
frmly good as at one time seemed probable,
thoueh on the whole It will be a much better
quality crop than has been grown for some
years pset Indeed, the bulk of the Bramllng
and Fueaie are better grown out nd richer
In condition than for the last ten or twelve
erasons. in regard to the quantity, we eon
eider a fair estimate to be 14 cots. pr acre,
h!rh. on an estimated acreage of 3S.0O0 acres,
would be 632.000 cwts.
The Observer print a letter from tha sec
retaries of th Worcestershire and Hereford
shire associations, representing a quarter of
the total acreage of England, that the crop
In those districts cannot exceed 9 cwt. per
acre.
LOCAL BCTTEB SCPTLY IS LIGHT.
Trice at the Moment Are Firm, but Future
Is Vnrertaln.
Ther Is a difference of opinion in the
butter trade aa to the future of the market.
Supplies at th present time are light and
some of the cannerymen are finding diffl- j
culty In ailing their orders. It is feared,
however, that any advance In prices would
be ill advised at this time, as It could not
be maintained. The Seattle market already
show sign of weakness and ahould prices
ther fall back to 30 cents, the current local
quotation of 81 H cents would be shaky.
There 1 no abatement of the firmness In
th local egg market, which la lightly sup
plied with fresh ranch stock, for which
there Is a good demand.
Poultry receipt fell off yesterday, but
th demand waa alio alow. Prlcea wera un
changed. Prawn Market Hold Steady.
Receipts of peach eontlnu very large,
bat the demand la about equal to th sup
ply and price show little change. Quota
tions yesterday ranged from 35 to T3 cents.
Pears were very plentiful and weak at 50
T5 cents. Other fruit held about steady.

The dvnce of the Fall season and the no-,

for a further moderate expansloa in Jobbing

pecially marked at Western Paclflo Coast and
Southern centers, but th point la mad that

Actors Threaten Strike.
CHICAGO, Sept. 11. The "talent" that
entertains the patrons of Chicago's 400
nickel theaters proposes to strike Monday
for increased salaries.
About 900 'of this class of "artists" are
employed in the city. They have cir
culated a petition for signatures agreeing
not to work for less than $20 a week,
or $33 a week for teams. They are
nearly all members of the Actors' Union,
but the constitution of that organization
forbids the fixing of a wage scale, so the
present move is being taken independent
of the union.

ALBANY, Or., Sept. 1L (-Special.) L.

FAILS TO RALLY
Slump in Wheat Caused by
Heavy Selling.
CLOSES AT THE LOWEST
Five Million Bushels Disposed Of in
the Chicago Market De
mand for Cash Grain
Is Lighter.
CHICAGO, Sept 11. The wheat market
opened firm, with prices a shad lower to
Ho higher and during the firt hour
freeh gains of nearly lc were made in all
deliveries as a result of active buying by
the leaders. The bullish enthustasm seemed
to be based on the firm demand for flour
In the Northwest and the brisk Inquiry for
cash wheat at all the principal centers in
this country. On the contrary, the Liver
pool markot was easy and the movement in
the Northwest was again exceedingly liberal.
Recetpta at Minneapolis and Duluth today
were more than four times as large aa they
were for the corresponding day last year.
As the session advanced offerings became
more liberal and before the end of the day
mere than 6.OO0.000 bushels. It was claimed,
had been sold by about a dozen traders.
These heavy sales caused a slump In prices
late In the session, from which tha rrtarket
failed to rally, htsw York reported 12 boat
loads had been taken for export, but locally
the export business was at a standstill. De
mand for cash wheat here wa tarn at
yeterdays prlcea Outside market for
cash wheat wer firm early, but weakened
later In the day. The market closed almost
at the bottom.
All deliveries of corn sold at new high
record marks for the season. September at
one time selling at SI He. December touched
70c. and May 6SWc. The fresh advance
today waa due to an active general demand,
based on the reported drouth in the corn
belt. The market closed easy, with prlcea
14 He lower to e higher.
Extreme dullnesa prevailed in the oats
market. At the sample tables, cash oats
were firm to V4o higher. The market closed
easy at net declines of X c to He
Trading In provisions was active and th
market waa strong all day. At the close

NEY EXPECTED
STOCK VALUES ARE DEPRESSED
AS CONSEQUENCE.
Transactions Ar at Prices Below
Those of the Preceding
Day.
NDW TORK. Sept. 11. Th action of th.
stock market today was a striking te-tlmony
to the Important part played by cheap and
abundant money supplies In tha movement
which has carrlred price to Uieir current
high leve'.s. The stiffening of the money mar
ket was very moderate In degree and the
available supplies remain far from tha point
of exhaustion. The Inroads making on that
supply establish Its declining tendency, how
ever, and speculators today continued to par
more for loans on call than for many months
preceding. Tbe apprehension that the forces
of depletion may cause still higher rates
proved a formidable "weight upon speculative
sentiment.
Estimates ny the accepted authorities of
the week's currency movement to and from
the interior indicated the turning of the tide
away from New York, the excess of ship
ments from the city having reached the
neighborhood of $2,000,000. Losses on mib
Treasury operations, which amount to $2,327,
000, are extended by payments to the Gov
ernment of drafts on New Tork correspondents)

cash at Interior points is felt. There has
been a marked decline also In the dally
average of National bank-notes presented to
the sub-Treasury for redemption, which sre
features of the season when Interior bank
re shipping this form of currency to New
Tork. . ,
Bank-notes of the United states Treasury
fund still stand at upwards of $52,000,000 in
spite of effort of extra clerical forces to
keep up with the sorting; of these bill for
return to the taaulng banks. This compares,
with a maximum of over 67.000 of these
notes 1 the general fund In July, but it also
compares with only 110.000,000 in the period
before the reflux from th circulation began
after the panic. The faot that only about
117,000,000 of th SSO.000,000 bond-secured
circulation put out following the panic ha
been retired by the issuing banks explains
this automatic pressure to get out of circu
lation. The rise in call money yesterday was trace
able to calling of loans by one of the bank
engaged in accumulating exchange for the
redemption of New York City revenue bond
In London on November 1. There were no
reports of actual calling of loans today, but
the supply of bank money offering on call
is said to be less and this created fears of a
definite turning away from great ease in the
situation.
Various reports were current of the enor
mous volume of loans outstanding on call by
the bank most closely affiliated with the
group of capitalists credited with the con
duct of th upward movement of prices dur
ing the Summer. The control of the situation
ihus centered in a few hands causing un
easiness over the possible effect of a change
in the market of so powerful a combination.
The passing of the dividend on the Ameri
can locomotive tock yesterday made the
other railroad equipment stocks weak and the
Inference from this were not helpful to the
Iron and steel group s a whole. Reading
got some occasional benefit from the further
consideration of yesterday's decision against
the validity of the commodities clause of the
Hepburn act. While the market was irregu
lar at times, the day's business was don
below yesterday' prices and the prevailing
tone was weak.
Bonds were irregular. Total salea, par
value, $3,ttoo,00u. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.
