hore Inquiry for One Year and
Term Hop Contracts.
RICES ARE ADVANCING
orthuehtcrn Wheat in Firm Hands.
California Potato Crop Pros
pects Egg Market on
Verge of Break.
There Is renewed inquiry for one and
hree-year contracts In the hop market.
number of buyers are out trying to do
uslness in this line, but they find some
irriculty In executing their orders. The
idependence section in the past few days
as been flooded with offers of 10 !i cents
r the 1909 crop' and 11 M cents has been
tered for three-year terms. A 50,000-
itind one year contract was closed with an
dependence grower at lOVic. There are
iso rumors that 10V4 cents was offered in
lat section and. in fact, one or two con
acts, though not of large size, have been
ritten at that figure.
In the spot market the only recent sale
cported was the Oswald West lot of 122
ales, at Corvallis, which T. A. Uvesley
eo. paid S cents for.
California advices are of a firm, but not
ctlve. market there. In New: York State,
rie unsold stock has been reduced to 2000
ales, according to all authorities. Of the
irrket the Vatcrvllle Times says.
1 he conditions reported last weplc rMH
ontlnue in this place a good demand
ilthout any goods to Bupply the demand,
folders of the few remaining hons iefi
a this town are still firm in refusing IS
ents' for their crops. Offers to contract
ops at lo cents for the next three years
ave been made to growers here, but we
ave heard of no acceptance of thoiA r.t .
era There is little that can be reported
n this market for the rest of the season,
or the crop Is practically sold out.
SHIPPING DEMAND FOR POTATOES.
larfcet Is Firm, with Steady Buying: For
f-alirornia Account.
The potato market was firm, with a good
emand for California account. Buying
rices in the country ranged from $1.25 to
1.35. Farmers do not show much readi
es to part with their supplies, even at
hese good prices.
The Sacramento correspondent of the Call-
ornla Fruit Grower says of potato crop
rospects in that section:
There will be a late rrnn nnn . trrto
hortage In the nroilucttnn nf r.nt o . ...... in
his district this season, and the reports
ent out from San Francisco as to the
mount or tmi snortage are verified by local
ealers. No potatoes have been nlnntpii i
Sacramento County yet, and planting can-
ii !. u-kiii rnr a weeK or ten days, even
vith favorable yeather. as the long con-
inuea rams and the overflow of sume of
he potato lands have mal tHe enil tnn
fvet to be worked. The estimates made
place the number of sacks of potatoes
available in California and Oregon at the
riruenc iime at ouu.ijuo. The consumption
s li.uuo sacks a day, so the shortage bv
luly 1 will amount to considerable x nw
potatoes will be available before that date.
There was a somewhat better feeling in
the onion market with a more general de
mand.
LOCAL 'WHEAT HOLDERS ARE FIRM.
Offers of (1.08 Are Made For Club Coarse
Grains Strong.
There were offers of $1.08 for club wheat

SEATTLE. Wash., March 9. (Special.)
The first new potatoes of the season reached
here today from California. The stock was
In good condition and was distributed at
8 to lO cents per pound. Old potatoes were
not as firm today, owing to the Increased

of the market here, which la taken to mean
that they are anxious to empty their pits
now.
Egg prices will be lower In the morning
at 2. cents This Is due to the filling of

butter will he shipped before the eml of

BUYERS HOLD ALOOF
Lack of Interest in Stock
Speculation.
TENDENCY'" IS DOWNWARD
Decision in Missouri Rate Case Re
garded as of Tar-Rcaehinp: Im
portance to Corporations.
Outward Movement of Gold.
NEW YORK. March 9. The stock market
shows with growing clearness that substan
tial financial Interests are holding aloof. Yes
terday's wae the sir.aUevt day's business lnce
the period preceding the National election and
the character of the market from week end
to week end Is even more like that of last
Summer before the National conventions had
ben held than the pre-election period.
Financial authorities consider that the
United States District Court decision yter
lay again. st the Missouri rate law Is of far
reach ing importance, not only to the rail
roads directly concerned, but in Us indica
tion of the judicial safeguards against sim
ilar legislation elsewhere. The attempt to
day to extend the moderate effect of thia
decision, which was felt yetnerday, proved
fntije. its influence may have been Im
paired by the news of a similar measure In
progrr.s In the Kansas Legislature and by
an attempt to paw a new li-cent fare bill In
Pennsylvania or by the consideration that the
Mis-ouri case it subject to an appeal. Ru
mors of a coming bond issue by the Missouri
Pacific and the Union Pacific had a moder
ate strengthening effect for a time, but did
not last.
London bore most of the strain of the con
vulsive demand f'r gold from New York in
the panic and drew on the continental cen
ter to replenish Its . supplies. When the
current of the movement Rhffted from New
York again, lnuon used its command of the
movement to divert the gold to other cen
ters in payment of Its obligations The ship
ment tomorrow of gold from New York to
London, therefore, represent In some ways
the resumption of norma! conditions between
the two market-. The fact that two months'
merchandise exports from this country have
fallen $43,uOO,Ooo in value below those for
the same period last year, while Imports In
the pame comparison have increased 4;i,ix.M.
000, makes the reason for the movement
plain. Continued liquidation oi foreign hold
ings of American securities and some Ameri
can participation In foreign loan suUrcrlp
tloru make up additional requirements for
remittances abroad.
Money rates were q notably lower today,
both on call and on time. Lat prices of
stocks were around the lowest of the day.
Bonds were Irregular. Total -aIes. par
value, ?3.2!7.0(t0. United States bonds, is
registered, 'as registered and the ts coupon,
advanced x per cent on call today.

Livestock receipts yesterday were unus
ually heavy, but there u a good .lersmnd
for the better grades in all lines and
prices were well maintained. The receipts
for the day were 325 cattle, 750 sheep. IOO

The Prinevllle Journal says:
Stroud Bros, and William Davenport, of
Prinevllle. recently purchased over loo hsad
of fat hogs from different ranchers about
Madras, and the first of the week loaded
them into freight wagons bound for the rail
road and have shipped them from Shaniko
to the Portland yards. The price paid was
from 4"4c to 4 c. while the shippers expect
to receive about 7c live weight in Port
land. The trip from Madras to Shaniko bv
freight wagon necessitated the unloading
of the hogs at Cross Keys for feeding onu
night. Shaniko being reached the follow
ing day. There were four six-horse loads.
Tom Stroud and William Davenport ac
companied the shipment to Portland. This
manner of taking the hogs to Shar.iko is a
new plan, but is thought to be a successful
one. Driving the hogs is a slow process
and they lose much weight besides requir
ing several days' feeding. Freighters who
are going Into Shsnlko without lods are
glad to haul the hogs In their wagons at
c r.ound.
