THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1903.
HOP TRUE WAITING
Lack of Business Discourages
Some Dealers.
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.
Nuremberg Market very dulL
Mannheim No change to roporL
ORIENTAL, r lyOl K TRADE 13 LIGHT.
Iss Price or Silver Curtails Demand.
Wheat Market blow.
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. A few sales were reported, but
the aKgrcgate was smalt.
There were no sales at the Board of Trade
yesterday. November wheat mas offered at
V-lr and December at file. One hundred
tur.s of red Ruasslan was offered at 89c
track. For November oats gl.&O was bid
and 11.65 asked. December oats were of
fered at S1.67H. with tl.63 bid. Barley
was unchanged, with bids at 1.2St, and
sellers at SI. 30.

Frost Damage Canses Tomato Market to
Jump.
Grapes were about the most plentful arti
cle In the fruit market yesterday. Receipts
of local grapes, principally Niagaras, were
Tory heavy, and they moved around 45ff50
cents per box. Wordens and Concords were
quoted at 20S-22H cents per basket and Dela
ware at 174 cents. California grapes wers
toady.
Peach receipts have fallen oft materially
and fancy Elbert as now bring T5 cental com
mon sorta selling as low aa 35 cents. Good
Sartlett pears move fairly well at $1 and
Fall Butter and other varieties at 75 cents.
There Is ao demand for dead ripe pears.
Tomatoes have taken a Jump to 6075 cents
per box. as the frost put an end to the crop
and the only tomatoes now available are
what were picked before the frost. 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.
City butter continues scarce and firm, but
uniform prices are not quoted by the cream
eries. The cheese market Is steady to firm, with
a fairly active movement.

HIGHER PRICE EXPECTED IX
SEATTLE TODAY.
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.

BUY MORE FREELY
Jobbers Prepare for the Fu
ture on a Larger Scale.
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.

PORTLAND LIVESTOCK MARKET.
Prices Current Locally on Cattle, Sheep and
x Hogs.
Livestock receipts yesterday were the
largest of the week. 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. Tre arrivals of the day consisted of
45 cattle. 350 sheep and lambs and 2O0 hogs.

Undertone Is Bullish, but Selling
Prevents a - General Advance.
Sharp Rise at Liverpool.
Buying for Export.
CHICAGO, Sept. 25. The market for wheat
was erratic and Irregular. It started with
an advance, lost it, regained it, and then
let go again, all without any particular

to $1.01ii only to rebound to $1.02K(1.02.
The close was at $1.01l,1.01H. under yes
terday. The undertone, however, seemed to
be bullish, but the readiness of longs to take
profits on bulges prevented this sentiment from
maintaining prices, Liverpool closed sharply
higher; export sales for the day, unconfirmed,
were placed as high as 100 loads; flour sales
at Minneapolis were still heavy; Northwest
receipts were likewise; hesslan fly reports
arrived from the Southwest; the Italian crop
was said to be 40.000.000 under last year and
weather was reported Inimical to the move
ment In the Northwest.
' December corn prices covered a range of
cent and showed the Influence of wheat
throughout the session. September closed c
higher, but December finished the day un
changed and May was up a shade.
Oats reached a higher level early in sym
pathy with wheat and corn, but prices rs
L ceded later when trading quieted. There was
a fair shipping demand. Closing prices were
easy; December, hihio under yesterday.

Small Operators Have Difficulty In
Following Them Effect of
Copper Advance.
NEW YORK, Sept. 25. Professional op
erators In the stock market have come to
practical agreement In calling It a Standard
Oil market. The attention of the specula
tive element was wholly centered today on
efforts to determine what Standard OH bro
kers were doing. This was because of lhe
conviction that the. market is under the con
trol of a combination of capitalists having
affiliations with the Standard Oil Company.
The followers of ths speculation had to be
nimble to follow the contradictory evidences
of what these millionaire operators might be
doing. -
The market was in a constant state of hesi
tation and unsettlement throughout the ses
sion. Open selling of large amounts cf

by the houses which were the largest biyets
yesterday broke prices from the brisk early
advapce. The openness of this swing ;fcB
