' IN ALL PARTS OF STATE I'.vcry I'uri'lia Supposed to lie Made for the .ccount of Klaber, Wolf & Xettor Mystery Surrounds the Deal. There was no pause yesterday In the activity of the hop tnirkrt. As was the esse Saturday, nearly everything bought was by or for Klaber, Wolf A Netter. Par ticulars of their business were not obtainable but It was understood their purchases dur ing; the day amounted to about 1000 bales. The priors paid were not known, except In the caae of a few small lots, and these were at the figures current last week. Th buying- was don In nearly all sections, but was heaviest around Sllverton. The operations of the firm aroused th greatest Interest In the Portland and Falem trade and there were many jruesses as to the reason for the heavy buying. The gen erally accepted belief was that It was purely for speculative account, though a few dealers were of the opinion that the firm was buy' Ing to cover Its contract requirements. M Klaber would throw no light on the mystery. The hopnn of Salem and Portland hav been engaged In the past two weeks check Ins; up their sample bots In order to rlva at a definite estfmatp of the size of this year's crop. WHEAT PRICES ARE MAINTAIN En. Loral Market Not Affected by Changes Elsewhere. The decline In foreign and Eastern whea' markets yesterday would have Imparted an easier feeling to the local market, but for the lightness of supplies In this sectlcn. There was some Inquiry for wheat from Moxleo and Texas, but in general the mar ket waa very quiet. The coarse grains maintained their former strong position. Prices above a parity with the Portland market were reported paid in the Interior for oats In small lots and aym pathetic strength was given to the barley- market. Sales reported at the Board of Trade were ?i)0 tons of February-March oats at I32.V and ?00 tons of March-April oata at $33. Prices posted at tno Board were: WHEAT. Bid. Asked.

There is a moderate demand from South ; western points for Oregon potatoes at the prices now current. This demand la likely t to continue throughout tho season and ship pers look forward to a good business with lhat section unless prices are raised at this end. which will make It impossible for Western Oregon stock to get into those mar kets. Farm Produce Is Slow. The week opened quietly in the market Tor farm produce. Receipts of poultry were very light and the little stock that was carried over from Saturday seemed suf ficient for the demand. Eggs moved slowly at last week's prices. Firm conditions prevailed in the butler and cheese markets. Changes In Provisions.

' CALLMONEY HIGHER Flurry Has Effect of Depress ing Stock Values. LOAN RATE GOES TO 3 1-2 Strong Spots Appear in Market, t'ntll Sudden Relapse Comes at the End Standard Oil Klses Above 700 on the Curb. NEW YORK. Dee. 14. Speculative oper ations In stocks were restrained by the out look In the money market, but In the absence of actual withdrawals of credH there was no Dr3ssure to sell The mark- Ing up of prices here and there In the list was a 'sustaining Influence and facilitated what prom-taking sales were made with out much effect on prices until a rudden re lapse at the end, which wiped out in gains. There were a number of development In the news which helped to advance prices and these were supplemented by rumor which got some acceptance. The report the subtreasury operations revealed th principal factor of depletion of bank re serves In the rain of Saturday by that Institution of $10,523,000. bringing the loss of the banks to the Government for the new banking week to $15.3:17.000. These changes are due to the payments for subscription to the Panama canal bonds, wnich are ex pected to run through the present week This sum. added to :he $3.90u.OO0 gold shipped to Paris on Saturday, which has not yet figured In the bank statement. stands opposed to a surplus reserve of th banks on Saturday of $16.8119.825. It 1 manifest, therefore, that further resources for speculative operations are dependent on a shifting or loan accounts. Call money went ua. to 3!4 per cent compared with 5 per cent last week as th highest. The Braxllllan coffee loan. Issued In London today, will be offered to New lork participants to the extent of $10,000, 000 during the week. The sale of $5,000,000 bonds by Pennsylvania subsidiary compa nies was announced during the day. The possibility of a check to the gold ouLgo was a factor in the strength show by the gtock market. Much importance was attached also to the filing of freigh changes with the Interstate Commerce Com mission by the Trunk Line Association, th Central Freight Association and the Trans continental Freight Association, thus em bracing all the principal railroads of the country. The astounding yield of the country agricultural products, summarized In th annual report of the DepRrtment of Agri culture, made for cheerful views by the property noiuers. One of the day's incidents that had sensational effect on the speculation was me rise in me price or (Standard oil In th curb market to above 700 for the first tlm In over three years. A report that th- Pennsylvania Railroad had placed Its stee ran orovrs ror tne year was DromDtlv de nied Dy tne president or tne railroad com pai y. The Supreme Court decision, exempt Ing E. H. Harrlman from the obligation to answer queries of the Interstate Commerce 1 ommission. was regarded as a steD toward rcKiriciun or ine power or tne commission. American femeltlng was the weakest fea ture ana was sold down to successive lower stages from the general distrust of the price ir.Ti cumpmpu witn earning power and ulvl aend prospects. This, coupled with the flurry to 3 per cent in call money, caused toe late orenK in prices. A number of lm portant declines was ftie result. Total sales of bonds were s.t Aon nnn i-nl ted States bonds were unchanged on call.
