.THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1909.
HOLDS PRICES DOWN
One London Firm Manipulating
Hop Market.
KEEPS THE BREWEfcS BACK
Sold the Current Crop Short at Low
Price and Is Now Trying to
Prevent Values From
Advancing.
What bu puzzled hop dealars all over
tha country, and particularly o the pacinc
Coast, has been the course the market ha
taken since tha completion of harvest. With
the world's production less than the require
ment add an actual shortage Indicated
even allowing for the supplies .carried over
from previous growths prices have shown
an Inclination to stand still rather then ad
ranc. a they should under the circum
stances. It was plain from this halting
action of the market either that the position
had been figured out wrong or that force
were at work to keep prices down. As the
trade has every means of learning the al
most exact outturn of hops ths world over,
and the carryover surplus has also been es
tablished approximately." it seemed incredi
ble that an error could have been made in
the reasoning of the speculators, who have
been Investing millions in hops. Therefore,
the suspicion has been created that some
dealer, or combination of dealers, has been
manipulating the market.
That the stagnation In the price move
ment has been due- to the latter cause has
now been established beyond diepute. The
great bear In the game is a London dealer,
one of the largest dealers in the English
metropolis, and a man who annually han
dles thousands of bales of Oregon and Cali
fornia hops. It baa been discovered that he
1 heavily short on the 1900 crop, and as he
has an Important following in the English
brewing trade, has been able to keep the
brewers out of the market up to the present
time. There is also reason to believe that
one or two other large London dealers are
on the short side and engaged in the same
aay in trying to bear the market.
This explain the inactivity of the ex
port market at this nd, and, therefore, the
Inability of prices to rise. American dealer
at the Eastern seaboard are naturally in
terested In seeing prices kept down and do
nothing to counteract the English manipula
tion. In the meantime, the speculative ele
ment is hanging on grimly and show no
sfsn of weakness, and the larger growers
are backing them by their persistent refusal
to soil. If statistics count for anything,
there muat be a reaction before long, and it
will not be in buyer' favor either. There are
a!o important firms, both In America and
in England, that are likely to enter the
market at any time and turn the tide to
holders' sdvantage.
WHEAT PRICKS ARE FTRATLY HELD.
Farmers' Idea Not Weakened by the In
active Market.
The wheat market wa qule yesterday,
both hers and in the country. In spite of
the dullness, however, it was not possible to
buy wheat under the price current last
week. The coarse grain were also quiet
and firmly held.
There were no new developments in the
flour situation on Puget Sound. Two of the
larger millers are still .holding to the cut
price. It Is possible the trouble wilt be
pstched up this week.
The weekly wheat statistic of the Mer
chant Exchange follow:

PRODUCE MARKET WE IX SUPPLIED.
No Scwrrlty of Fratt or Vegetable, Not
withstanding the Blockade.
No produce has arrived from California
by Vail for several days, because of the
cave-In down the line, but In sptte of the
fact, the market Is getting along very well.
Local receipts have been large and a good
supply of southern truck ha come in by
boat, so no one Is suffering. In fact, there
were more fruits and vegetables on the
street yesterday than the trade needed. The
demand, as has been the case for some time
past, was ltgt. but prices were held
steady.
Among the receipts of the day were a
car of New Jersvy cranberries and three
cars of bananas. The latter were in fine
condition.
EG;s AKE STEADILY ADVANCING
Krrsh Oregon Stock Quoted a High as 42
. cents Chickens Weak.
Some of the Jobbers advanced Oregon
eggs yesterday tu 4JS cents, but the general
quotation remained at 40 cents. Supplies
were so smill as hardly to be a factor in the
market.
Receipts of chickens were large for Mon
day. The market has not yet opened and
there wa practically no demand. Expect
ing free receipts all of this week, some of
the handlers were dipoed to shade price
to Vi cents yesterday. Turkey were firm
at last week's prices.
Butter stocks were more liberal than last
, week, but the market be'.d firm, so far as
the city produce wa concerned and hold
ers of outside creamery were not disposed
to make concessions on fresh good.
RECENT HOP SALES LN OREGON.
Transfers Made at I hit ton, forest Grove and
McUinnvUle.
Amoi.g the transaction in the hop mar
ket yesterday was the sale of the Weston
lot of lOO bales at Forest Grove to a Salem
dealer. The price was reported to be 234,
rents. H. L. Hart bought 4S bales from
Jame Martin, of Dayton, at 3 cents, and
4" bales from Daniels 4c Bishop, of Mo
Minnville. at 24 4 cents.
Klaber. Wolf Netter's London cable
read: "Market firm but quiet. Prices unchanged-
Mail advices from New York note the
purchase by the Anheuser-Busch Company
of 1200 bales of states at 3f&3 cents In
Otaego County. This deal has stiffened the
market in thst section of yew York State
and at the same time reduced the unsold
stock In first hands to about 25 per cent of
the crop. In other sections of the state the
market la quiet but firm for choice grades
and easy for inferior qualities
Unsettled fttate of Sngar Market.
As was previously announced, one of the
outside Jobbers doing business here yester
day made a 10-cent cut In sugar price and
Is reported to have done an active business
dnrlng the day. The cut wa not openly
met. however, by the local wholesalers, and
the market, therefore, continues a unset
tled as ever.

BUYING BT SHORTS
Sends Stock Prices Up at the
Opening.
BUT CLOSING IS EASY
Course of Foreign Money Markets.
Amalgamated Copper Strong on
Combine Rumors Pres
sure on Steel.
NEW YORK, Nov. 8. Th. initial upward
Impetus to stocks today came from profes
sional buying- to cover short contracts and
was based upon the decision of the Imper
ial Bank of Germany to leave its mini
mum discount rate unchanged. The clos
ing was easy.
The weekly return, of the Imperial Bank
of Germany showed that the bank bad
regained but Sl.Me.200 of the S10.5M.000 In
gold lost last week. The Bank of Eng
land secured the 2,S1G.OOO of South Afri
can gold available in the London market,
but the London control of New York's gold
was reasserted In the resumption of outgo
of gold to South America, engagements of
more than $1,000,000 being announced for
that destination for shipment on Wednes
day. The Bank of England also borrowed
from the London open market. The move
ment of the sterling exchwnge rate at Paris
which advanced a full centime to above the
par of exchange, raised discussion of a
possible movement of gold from Paris to
London. Exports of train are now run
ning heavy and making exchange.
A notably strong feature of the market
was AmalKamated copper. The influence
back of this movement was the persistence
of rumors of the progress towards a work
ing agreement for various interests. A lull
in the sales of pig iron since the first of
November was an item which may have
aggravated the selling pressure on United
btates titeel.
The late rise in call loans to 5 per cent
also was against the market. Foreign ex
change rose strongly in tne face of the
stiffening of the money market, and New
York exchange at Chicago fell back to 45
cents discount per S10O0.
Ttnnrik wprt ste&dv. Total sales, par
'value. S3.03J.000. United states bonds
were unchanged on call.

SILVER CUPIS OREGON'S
State Wins Trophy for Exhibit at
Dry-Farming Congress.
KLAMATH VaLLS, Or., Nov. 8. (Spe
cial.) Caleb T. Oliver returned last even
ing from Billings, Mont., where he at
tended the Dry Farming Congress, taking
with him a collection of agricultural
products from Klamath County, collected
by himself from non-irrigated farms. The
only other Oregon exhibit was from
Crook County, the two exhibits aggregat
ing not more than 1500 pounds altogether,
while there were exhibits from the West
ern and Middle States and even from the
British possessions.
Mr. Oliver says the Oregon exhibit was
greatly admired and the feeling was gen
eral that Oregon was justly entitled to
the silver cup valued at J250, awarded
for the best exhibit from a single state.
