Importation of frfrman Hop One Caum of the Peprepslon in the Indntry In This Country. Ths uhTTimte on hop f Cfl ftrni stats committee on tariff revision ha prepared a report, which will be sub mitted t a meeting- of the g-ensTal com mittee at Fen Frnncturo Ortober Ift. The report r com mends that wie duty on foreign hope, which Is now 13 cents, be raised to 24 eenta a pound. .The committee finds that the production of American kops In tha laet three sea sons was aa follower Tear.

U X.IO OOO l07-8 8.493.2T.5 2.000.000 Becaaea of unprofitable market, the re port eaya, the American rrower are prac tically on tha of bankruptcy. The cause la largely the Importation of so many fore lien irrown hopa A doubling of the tariff would keep down the Imports and at the eame time would not lessen the ot ammecfe revenue. The report says: "It Is the well eettled policy of thle ro-r eminent to levy the heaviest ratea on all luxuries Imported Into this country, and the lowest ratea on necessities, and It can well be said that foreign hopa are fad and come under the classification of luxuries. Thla being true. they. like other luxuries such as silks, diamonds, precious stones and foreign wines, should have the very largest rate of duty possible placed on them, not only for the protection of the American grower, but for revenue purposes as well; and If there are some people In America who will Indulge in luxuries by the consumption of foreign and domestic beers, made In whole or In part from foreign grown hops, they should not. and probably would not. hesitate to pay all that may ha axked for the Indulgence of their luxurious tastes. "We therefore auggest ar.d request that In the revision of the tariff about to be msfle the duty on foreign hopa be Increased to double the present amount, and the rate f ved at 24 cents per pound, while the d.ity on foreign beers containing foreign hops shouM also ba advanced proportion ately." The committee constats of TT. E. Lovdal. Max Wolf and E. S- Woodward. They have delegated Herman Klaber. of this city, to take up the work In Oregon, and the matter will be laid before the hop growere of thla state for their Indorsement. EIGHT-tXXT OFFERS FOB BIO CROPS McLaughlin and Rmv Reject Bide an Their Hod. OfT-rs of 8 cents have been made by Klaber, "Worf - Netter for the Rose and McLaughlin hop crops, but they were de clined. These are two of the largest lota In the state and aggregate 2S00 bales. McNeff Bros, bought at Aurora the Roach lot of 70 bales, 88 bales from Mc Gonegal and a lot from Meachler, In, all about ltW bales, at 77kc The following cables were received by Klaber. Wolf A Natter yesterday: "London Market rather quiet; choice firm, other qualities weak. ?au Market very dull. "Mannheim No change In market to re port. "Nuremberg Market continues ry quiet. Hop market conditions tn EttgTaod were reported by the Kentish Observer of Octo ber 8 as follows: The demand for hopa Is gradually In creasing, but Is confined to finer qualities, the supply of which In the present growth Is somewhat limited, and maintain full quotations. Medium sorts are selling more fre!y. but at prices that are a serious loss to the producer, and which will Inevi tably cause a further reduction In the acre age under cultivation. The color and qual ity of the Continental and American crops do not at present favor much trade la them on this market. The prices quoted to growers are for large lota of choice East and Mid Kenta from S2 10s to 3 lOo per cwt.: specially choice parcets, ti; choice Sussex. 13; medium. 2 5s; low class brown bops, II to It 10s per cwt. The latest London trade circulars say In part: Wlld-Neeme Co.: There la a good de mand for the best samples at an advance la values Trade in other grades continues very restricted, but a better tone generally prevails on our market. W. H. H. I-e May: The demand la chiefly for the best quantise of each dis trict. The brown samples are not meeting with much Inquiry yet. Manger Henley: Choice hops are scarcer than ever and comrnand full ratea. Mediums do not move much yet. Cattley. Ortdley Co.: There Is consid erably Increased demand for choice English hops, and their scarcity has led to rather improved values for thla class. For other kinds there la but a slow demand, at rather nominal valuea Foreign marketa are also quiet, especially for English ac count. Exchange and Hop Warehouses: There la considerably more activity upon the market In good, bright samples, and a good quantity haa been sold during the week, prices being well maintained. There is aleo a demand for the medium quality, but buying In these Is slow, whilst lower end Inferior qualities are untouched. Buy ing in yearlings continues.

PORTLAND LIVESTOCK MARKET. Prices Current Locally on Cattle, Sheep and Hog. A weak feeling prevails In the livestock market because of the unloading of too much Inferior stock here. The lower quo tations on hogs and cattle, made Wednes day, were In force yesterday, but In the case of hogs It is probabta there will be a further reduction. Sheep hold steady, as the supply is not excessive. Arrivals yea terdav were 240 cattle and $40 hoga A dispatch from Kathlamet Falls says: Stockmen report an Improvement In the rattle market in the Klamath basin. In the early Fall there was little demand for stock except first-class stuff, but now the California buyera are taking what la usually considered average beef. A few carloads of prime byf were shipped from thia sec tion to Portland, where the price and tha sales wre a little better and quicker than In Oakland and Sacramento. Many of the stockmen of Klamath and Lake counties have purchased hay and will feed much of their stock through the Winter so as to have it in good condition for the early Spring markat. Most of the alfalfa hay grown under the Klamath reclamation pro ject has been purchased by stockmen, the average price being $1 a ton. The following prices were current on live stock In the local market yesterday: CATTLE Best steers, $3.754; medium, $3 2T. 3.60; common. $3 3. 25; cows, best, $2.7313; medium. $2.50 ? 2.75 ; common. $2 C2.50; calves. $3 50tf4.5").

BUT HOLD MARKET STEADY Sales Are Made In a Skillful Manner IVhJch Shows the Work - or Ex pertsDay's News Is Gen erally Favorable. NEW YORK, Ort. 22 A procfM of !g tlon of pMi!atlT proflu wu In progree. In today rtock markat and lt effect on price, waa quit, clearlr manlfeat a, th day vent on. Transaction, during- tha flrat hoar were 00 a very large aeal. and th, market had all the appearance of great rtreng-tb and ani mation at that tlma. Teiterday'a Irmooatm tlon of rerlred Interest and rtrength had tha effect of attractive new lot of buyer,, largely on a minor apeculatlve bajr!a Ware hotvea and eommlealon houiei reported a considerable Increase of volume of order, from outride sources. It was this demand that was fed by distribution of selling or ders, to the relief of the burden of holding of the speculative element that has conducted the recent campaign. The reaction which followed lacked explanation la the new of the day quite as much aa the rise of yester day. . The two movement,. In fact, were quite generally recognized aa complementary part of the same speculative operation. The skill and address with which the move ment was conducted gae evidence of the experience and resource of th, leaders and gave rise to aupposltlons that notable oid hands at thl work were coming back Into the market, after a period of withdrawal and abaenc, from Wall street. Dealings contin ued much congested In a few stocks, but tha manner In which new stock were made ac tive and strong to divert attention from realizing sale, where the advance has al ready occurred, strongly recalled the favorite method of some of the older leaders of speculative movement. When the realizing waa deterred and the professional element of the room trade attempted to follow the move ment by short rales, the market fell Into dullnesr. The profit-taking was not puehed urgently at tha expense of values. Advices concerning the copper trade gave ome ground for assumptions of actual bet terment of conditions and prices of the metal were marked up again, both here and In London. A story cams from London that a powerful combination had been formed among American producers of the metal to maintain prices. Local confirmation of th!s report was lacking, but a aubetanttal expan sion in demand from consumers wa reported and some heavy sales were said to have been effected at a high price. The weekly reviews of the Iron and ateel trade were regarded as favorable and a good effect was produced by further orders for equipment by soma of tha railroad companies. An Item of the day' news that had a cheer ing Influence was the purchase of some large order of print cloth for future delivery from the New England mills. Rain, in the West were of good effect, although the lack of them In the Ohio Valley was tlll an influ ence in strengthening the wheat market. Bonda were Irregular. Total sales, par value, Sa,5&,000.
