NO CHANGE IN CONDITIONS Picking Is Practically Ended In This State Frost Does Xo Serious Damape to Onion Crop. Poultry Is Weaker. Thsrs i no movement yet worth mention ing In new Oregon hops. The harveet has been made and precedent were worth anything, activity would at this time be pronounced. A It la. however, there la practically no demand from the Eaat and none at U from England. The dealer therefore, have plenty of time to Indulge In speculation as to the future of the mar ket and the cause of the present Inactivity. lhe feeling In the Portland and Salem trade yesterday was Inclined to be bearish, llopmen who a week ago were optimistic have for the time being become discouraged, etlll. conditions have undergone no change and there la apparently no more reason for the bearlahness now than there was for extreme bullishness last week. It 4s the rtervous disposition of the average hop dealer that causes him to be so easily swayed In his opinions. There la no mys tery about this market. It Is merely a case of a short crop In this country, a big crop abrosd and no demand at present anywhere. There were no Important developments of any kind In the situation yesterday. Pick ing came to an end In the afternoon in the Krebs yard, one of the last of. the big yards to finish. At some of the smaller yards, where picking was delayed, the effect of the frost was to be seen in red hops. Ad vices from Yakima were of a further in crease In the crop estimate of that section. The following cables were received yes terday. London Market for low qualities has de clined. Market continues very dull.

The China steamer takes out 60,000 barrels of flour to Oriental ports, but at the moment the market W quiet. The demand from the Asiatic markets Is limited and at the high prices arked Is likely to continue so. Silver Is low and this curtails the demand. Tno spot wheat market was very 'quiet yesterday.

Hot house lettuce has become plentiful on the treat and Is quoted at $191.25 per box. ONIONS NOT HI KT BY FROST. CTod In Bewvertoa Section Was Not Affected. A. J. Fanno returned from his onion farm at Beaverton yesterday and reports that the crop In that section was not Injured In the least by the fcost. At Sherwood, according to a grower of that district, there was con siderable damage done, as the bulk of the crop tad been pulled and not over 10 per cent of It housed, and what was exposed was frost-hlttten. The Sherwood onions that suf fered, however, were probably those that were pulled too soon. POULTRY DEMAND FALLS OFF. Market Takes a Weaker Turn and Prices Are Shaded. The poultry market took a weaker turn yesterday. Most of the large buyers were out of the market and the extreme prices recently quoted had to be shaded to effect sales. Hens were generally quoted at 13hi U cents and Springs at HHfflo cents. The egg market Is Arm, with an upward tendency, due to the scarcity of No. 1 local stock.

Eggs Barely Steady at the Extreme Top Quotation Scarcity ' 'of Poultry. ; SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 25. (Special. ) Frosts last night did great damage to vegetables around Seattle. As a result, there was a much nrmer tone In many lines today. Tomatoes wre decldodly firmer and corn was also stronger. Following a 4-cent advance this week, fresh eggs were barely steady at 39 cents today. Some believe the price waa put too high as the demand for the best J'gga has fallen off In the last few days. There Is likely to ba an advance In butter to morrow. Good hens sold as high as 17 corns today. There Is an Increasing scarcity of hens and Oregon shippers are not furnishing much poultry at present. Heavy receipts of veal forced the pi.fce flown from 12c to ll1 cents: The decline, however, la considered only temporary. Wheat was stronger today. Bids of 96c for bluestem were refused. The bulk of the trading was done In club and red Russian. QUOTATIONS AT SAX FRANCISCO. Prices Paid tor Produce la ibs Bay City Markets. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2f.

LESS IDLE MACHINERY Volume of Retail Bnsltess Is Stead ily Increasing; Healthier' Tone Reported In the Iron and Steel Industry. NEW YORK, Sept. 25. Tt. O. Dun Co. s weeklv review of trade tomorrow will say: "While the temperature has been too high for best results In Fall retail trade, the volume Is steadily Increasing and manu facturing plants have extended operations atlll further. Most Jobbing houses report a tendency to prepare for the future on a larger scale, and woolen mills have less Idle machinery. Several orders of Importance have been placed this week for finishing steel, and the usual supplv of small contracts appeared, but the waiting attitude Is still conspicuous among the' large buyers, especially the rail waya Foreign business Is now nearly normal and much more steel Is under con sideration for export. Including rails for Canada. ' As a rule, however, the railways are not buying beyond absolute necessities. WESTERN TRADE ADVICES GOOD. Encouraging Reports From the Pacific Coast Cities. NEW YORK. Sept. 25 Bradstreets to morrow will say: While events generally tend toward eteady. If slow. Improvement, purchasing In wholesale snd Jobbing lines and at several large centers Fall trade, notably In drygoods, has reached and passed Its maximum. Taken as a whole, trade, in a few Instances equal to a year ago at this date, la generally below the normal and the approach of the election has a tendency to discourage all but abso lutely necessary purchases. Western trade advices are good, as a whole, though house trade Is on the -wane and traveling salesmen are relied upon to take care of reorder business. There Is very general agreement that stocks are small In retailers' hands and color to this Is given by the many orders given for Immediate shipment, which throw unusual burdens In turn upon Jobbers, wholesalers and manu facturers Pacific Coast trade reports and those re ceived from the Spring wheat Northwest are gene.-ally encouraging.

About three-fourths of the arrivals, however, were of Inferior grade, and whatever firmness there was in the mar ket largely vanished as a xesult of the un loading of these undesirable shipments. Here tofore most of the complaint has been over the quality of the cattle and hog coming to hand, but now dealers also" have occasion to kick about the grade of sheep being mar keted.
