Tlii Chrlrtmal turkey market ill Blow In

day mi Monday were comparatively light
and It Is a question whether many will come
in nday. 'With the light rece Ipta and a
fair demand prtcm were moderately Arm.
Vnst sale nvrfl made at 224 to 24 cent.
A few very choice lots brought 25 cents
and there were nome second-grade turkeys
fTered at 2rt cents.
Several of the large retailers secured their
supply direct frfm the country and conse
Ouently were not seen on the street. A
good portion of the Jobbing business was
done with outside points, so. on the whole,
the city market was a quiet one, as com
pared with previous seasons.
Very little Eastern stock was brought In
and so far as known no local storage tur
keys were put on sale.
The market for live poultry was rather
dull. Chickens dragged at last week's
Trices. The best demand was for ducks.

The Watervilk- Times of December IS said
of the New York market: Dullness and In
activity characterise the market here to
day. Thre is some little buying going; on
at former rates, but not enough to stimu
late the market Into any marked activity.
Little change Is looked for until after the
holidays. Holders of chol-e hops are still
firm and there Is little demand for the
poorer grades, so all that Is doing at present
Is In the good brewing grades, for which
10 to 1L cents Is paid, or possibly a liyle
less In some Instances.
Bernhard Ring writes from Nuremberg.
November 27. of the German hop market:
Our market was rather active In the
month of November and big quantities of
second-class .qualities have been cleared oft
f.r England. The stock of our market
shows, therefore, sensibly reduced; good
greenish hops especially are very scarce.
Tle attention Is repeatedly called to the
fact that actually the prices have reached
a level which Is the lowest one within the
last 20 years, and offers an unprecedented
opportunity to buy a second and good pro
duct at an extraordinary low price. We
actually pay, per &0 kilos, first cost;.

CKOP CONDITIONS IX ARGENTINA.
Wheat Vlrld as Kstlniated by the Gov
ernment. The reprc-seotatlve In Argentina of a New
York grain firm wrote of crop conditions
(rum Buenos Ayres under date of Novem
ber 8, as follows:
The recent government report estimates
the total acreage lost to the various crops
at 11 per cent. Figures recelwd since then
Indicate that tills percentage Is more nearly
10 per cent. Favorable rains, which fell
Just after tlw frosts over nearly the entire
country, minimised the damage and It will
not be nearly as great as it would have
been otherwise.
Uelow I give you the last government esti
mate of the crop (since frosts fell) of wheat,
linseed and oats: also figures showing the
actual outturn of the 1907-S and 1906-7
crop for comparison:

From the abowj you will see the govern
ment estimate of total output this crop Is
only slightly under last year's record-breaking
figures In wheat and linseed.
The general opinion prevails among tli
best-posted people in the trade that govern
ment estimate is not very far wrong. Pome
alarmists' ncports were sent out from here
to the effect that the crop was damaged ut
least 27 per cent and that loss to the crop
would be at Ue.st 1.000.000 tons of wheat.
These were authoritatively denied with'.n a
few days, but a difference of opinion as to
the extent of damage prevailed until the
government report came out.

Bri-k Demand for Frnlt.
Because of the delayed trains, thcrs wera
no carlot arrivals of fruit or vegetables on
Front street yesterday. A good supply was
on hand, however, and tbe holiday trade
was brisk. The principal movement In the
fruit line was In oranges, which were very
firm. Apples also nioved well. There was a
steady demand for cranberries, with the
basis of 115 generally quoted.
Green truck sold at Saturday's prices. The
potato and onion trade are alow.

Butchers and retailers were heavy pur

cents for fresh dressed local stock. It Is said
that IB cans of Kartern stock arrived within
the last week. The turkeys are In strong
demand, however, and no price cutting Is
expected. Whatever stock Is beid over will
be put In storage for New Yeans and the
regular Winter trade. Practically no Wash

fying to the fact that the supply is really
llmited. . . .
Today's advance on fancy Eastern V aah

SELLING IS HEAVY
Speculative Liquidation De-
presses Stock Prices.
ADVANCE WAS TOO RAPID
Effect on Market of Rumors of Har
rinian's Illness Money Firm,
but No Higher Gold
Taken for Export.
NEW YORK. Dec. 21. Today's stock mar
ket bore on the face of It Important specu
lative liquidation. Conjecture leas a good
deal divided as to the course of this liquida
tion, but there was no difference of opinion
as to the fact. The apparent disregard of
the effect on price of the selling lent plausi
bility to a favorite supposition that the hold
ings so'd out lia.l been acquired at an early
period of tbe advance In prices.
The formation of a powerful stock market
pool was rumored at an early period In the
Summer, having among Its several rut-posea
in demonstrate a return of confidence In the
financial outlook, with the object of culti
vating conditions which should conduce to
success In proponed financial quotations and.
in a general way, to give a start to the
restoration of conditions which had been im
paired by the financial upheaval of last year.
The stock market has given almost constant
Indication, ever elnce that period, of foster
ing protection against any factors of de
prespion and encouragement and Incitement
for buying and advancing prlcea
The eiart meaning of the present liquida
tion Is difficult to determine. That It is
prompted by fears of a backset In the
progress of Improvement In general business
Is not believed.' It Is attributed rather to a
recognition that the advance In prices .has
been carried beyond a point warranted by
progress In recuperatkin of bwinesa, even in
its most favorable aspect, as this point haa
been dwelt upon with increasing urgency
by the financial world. The steady, sub
stantial appetite of capital for Investment,
which Is a present feature of the situation,
testifies to the completion of fhe work of
restoring confidence. The rise In money
rates has done away with the urgency of
bankers to lend money, which was a positive
force for a long time in injecting resources
Into the stock market.
Rumors of the illness of E. II. Harrlman,
although authoritatively denied, had some
sinteter effect on values, which seems una
voidable in view of the almost fantastic ex
tent to which Mr. Harrlman's alleged single
activities fcave Influenced the rise in almost
every department of the list.
The nature of Andrew Carnegie's, testimony
in the tariff bearings at Washington served
to emphasize the feeling that the proposed
tariff revision is widening in Its scope and in
its expected effect. The confirmation of the
purchase of the Colorado Southern by the
Burlington seemed to hurt the Hill stocks,
whloh would presumably be the beneficiary
from a favorable result of this project.
The money market showed no further ad
vance In rates, but the sub-Treasury con
tinues to withdraw sums from the money
market and foreign exchange rose to a point
which enabled bankers to engage gold for
shipment to Parts.
The extensive short Interest built up In
the course of the day's selling made the
basis for the partial recovery, which much
lessened the- extreme losses. - The closing
tone, however, was Irregular.
Total ealea .of ponds, par value, $8,202,000.
United States bands were unchanged on call.

FALL PACK n LIGHT ORE

SOS ALONG THE COAST.
Total Output of the Two States Is
Less Tlian 100,000
Cases.
ASTORIA, Or., Dec. 21. (Special.)
There were 11 canneries and one cold-storage
plant operated on the various streams
along the Oregon coast during the Fall
season, which recently closed. The season
there, as nearly all other points, was a
comparatively poor one. The cannery pack
was 72.193 cases, or over 32,000 cases short
of last year,' when lt v,as 101,500 cases. The
Elmore cannery at Alsea was not operated
this year as it burned down early In the
Fall. There waa trouble with fishermen at
various points over the price of raw fish,
and the lack of rain during the fir3t part
of the season kept the streams low, pre
venting the salmon from coming in, so that,
at certain points, fishing was not com
menced until we'll Into October. The only
cold-storage plant In operation was the one
owned by Kyle & Son, at Sulslaw, and Us
pack was about SO tierces.
The estimated pack by each of the In
dividual canneries. In "full" cases of 48
pounds each. Is as follows:

At Gravs Harbor Elmore & Co. and tne
