15 TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAN. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 27, 1909. GROWERS DS Hop1 Farmers of Oregon Can Make the Price. MARKET AT TURNING POINT ETery Kxport Dealer In the State Is After Hops Good Demand . Also Come From the East. "Oregon i the lowest hop market tn the world, but buyers will certainly not pay mm than sellers ask." Albert T.ilienthal. Mr. LUtenthal. In a telegram to The Ore-a-onlan. takes a correct view of the hop situation. The Oregon market -la what the Oregon growers will make it. Hops are selling for it cents tn California and S cents In New York. There la no earthly reason why dealers should be' able to buy hops In this state for :n oents when the crop of Europe Is the smallest on record. Pacific Coast hops today liould command at least SO cents, and would, if thp growers. 'who have the key to the situation In their own hands, would only say the word. Tha past two or three days has seen a steady Improvement In the market. The demand is stronger . and broader and the prices offered are from 1 to S cents hlghor all around. Jt can be stated on the nest authority that every export dealer In the state Is now In the market; and what Is more, they are after actual purchases and not consignments There Is also a better Inquiry from the East-rn trade and the price limits are steadily being raised. Purchases by If. l Hart In the past week haw aggregated S0 bales. Included In Mr Hart's purchases were the following lots: At Hlllrboro. Blersdorf. S3 hales; Sin clair. 5 bales; Bennett. 40 bales. At Cor nelius. Buchanan. 4S bales: Burtlln. 70 bales: Lafolette. 20" bales; aleo 500 bales In the) Aurora section and three lots aggre gating 243 bales In other parts of the state. Among tha latest transactions In Washing-ton was tha purchase of the Mushier crop of 210 bales at Chehalls by lsaao Plneua eV Sons. The Kentish Observer of November 11 aays of the English market: With a ateady demand for 190B English hops, tha growth Is passing Into con sumers' banda at gradually advancing prices, and stocks are so far reduced that there la practically no chance of any re duction in quotatlora taking place. Tear lings and older hops are now In demand, and are fetching enhanced values. Conti nental markets are ateady. the demand foT homo consumption having revived since the recent slight depression. American prices are slightly lower but still too advanced to compete In this market. BIAESTEM IS IX GREAT DEM.4M). Steady Advance In ITk-e In All Northwest ern Markets.

ALL LINES ARE ACTIVE Business Especially Good in the Western Markets Continued Im provement In the Footwear and Leather Trades. NEW YORK. Nov. 28. R. G. Dunn si Company's Weekly Review yof Trade tomor row will say: Favorable industrial conditions remain unchanged and production is now proceed ing at an enormous rate. All through the West, the talk of the people is concerning things actually produced and wealth created from the soli. The recent warm weather checked activity In some mercantile lines, and high prices and speculative develop ments work unfavorably In others, and this gives the Impression of a pause In busi ness revival, but the basis facts still point to a remarkable Industrial expansion. The heavy demand for steel products continues -nd some reports Indicate that specifications and new orders thus far this month have been even greater than the remarkable tonnage booked In October. Contemplated construction work will call for large amounts of material. With a new and higher basis for cotton prints effected this week. a somewhat smaller volume of business by Jobbers than customarv Is reported. although 100.000 pieces were sold by Fall River converters of fine cottons who have been increasing their contract obligations. The demand for woolens and worsteds continues active, one leading woolen mill running a larger per cenlage of Its looms than for many years past. Trade In the West is especially active, notable In dress goods. Cotton yarns are quiet while the woolen and worsted ysrns are easier, although underlying conditions In all divisions of the yarn market con tinue strong. Trade continues to Improve in footwear, and business at present Is of larger pro portions than at any other time within the last two years. All kinds of domestic hides have held steady, notwithstanding that the quality is growing poorer. WESTERN TRADE REPORTS ARE BEST. Undiminished Activity In Buying- of Steel Product. NEW YORK. Nov. 2. Bradstreets tomor row will say: Colder weather and the approach of the holiday season have continued tn stimulate retail trade and measureably Improve re ordering trade with jobbers, while rains or snows hsve checked excessive growth of or Inex-ct damage to Winter wheat and have given a good quantity of moisture to the growing plant. tn wholesale trade there are some inti mations of cross currents, tending to re strict fullest activity. The high price of cotton is still responsible for some curtail ment of output and also some hesitation on the part of buyers. Western trade reports reflect slightly more optimism than do those from the Eastern seaboard. Industrial reports an generally of large output for the season, though here again, as Tor instance in the case of iron and steel, undiminished activity in buying is noted in finished products, while the raw material market, particularly pig iron, is quieter. Production and shipments are at record heights. Collections are good, except where, as in points In the Northwest, producers dis play a tendency to hold hack supplies.

Result Is a Belter Feeling in Stock Market Money Is Relaxing. NEW YORK. Nov. 26. The chance for con templation afforded by the Thanksgiving holi day evemed to have resulted in an almoet en tire disappearance of apprehension over the Standard Oil decision, which, has been an un settling influence in the market through the present week. The abatement of uneasiness over the effects of the decision was owing to a large extent to the removal of doubt over the project to consolidate the leading copper Industrie. The constant gatherings of in fluential copper men in company with the bankers credited with the authorship of the project, fosters -the belief in the continued efforts to work out the combination on the lines offered by the flnsncial min.ls In the formation of the United 4states Steel Corpora tion. The estimates of the week's currency move ment show a decided reflux of funds from the interior today with the waning of the crop movement, which is one of the first signs of relaxation of the money market. The strong exhibit by the Bank of England was a reassuring factor In the money market, al though the retention of the official discount rate la read as an expression of continued distrust of the political outlook, as shsped by tfie budget controversy. There was a sudden rloe in the Chicago, Rock Island It Pacific Railway bonds, secured by St. Louis A San Francisco stock as col lateral. Bonds were strong. Total salos, par value, $3,692,000.

Trade in Produce More Active Thau Expected Damage Dono to Potatoes. SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 26. (Special. 1 Bluestem wheat sold here today at $1.15. Little or nothing is doing In the cheaper varieties, since exporters are practically out of the market. Traffic troubles have de layed shipments to Seattle. Trade in produce markets was more ac tive than expected today. Poultry moved well. Eggs were In exceptional demand at top prices. Receipts were light. Last night 1500 pounds of turkeys were shipped In time for the Thanksgiving trade, but were delayed on account of wrecks. Recent frosts and floods have done con siderable damage to the potato supply, both In Eastern Washington and In the White River Valley. Impassable roads are also making It Impossible for farmers to ship. Tubers were slightly firmer here today, as a result, some sales being made at $17. Onions are In oversupply and moderate demand. Oranges move better since the recent re duction. Hides are very firm, as high as lji-i cents being paid for the best packer stock. QUOTATION S AT SAN FRANCISCO.
