TWENTY-TWO CFNT8 FOR HOPS.
Market Shows an Vpwartl Tendency Ex
porters Have Orders.
There is a feeling in the hop trade that
the market is on the eve of another up
ward awing. Th tone of the market la
decidedly firmer than it was last week and it
la gaining in strength every day. The ln
Qulry has steadily improved and with so
many buyers In the market It la natural
that they should begin raising their bids.
Last week 20 cents was the best the dealers
could offer, and the first of thla week they
were bidding 21 cents. Yesterday a bona
fid offer of 22 cents was made for a large
blook of choice quality. These offers are
not producing much business, as tho holders
hare faith In Ihe coming of a higher mar
ket. In addition to the several dealers that
have American orders it is known posi
tively that most of the exporters are now
In tlta market. Some interesting develop
ments In the buying line are expected in
ths near future.

AWAIT OPENING OK GOODS MARKET.
Eastern Manufacturers Not at Present Buying-
Wool Freely.
BOSTON. Jan. 7. The Commercial Bulle
tin will say on the wool market, Satur
day: Manufacturers are awaiting the opening?
salo of new heavyweight goods. before buy
ing further supplies of wool, and the mar
ket Is, therefore, comparatively quiet. In
terest continues, however, in sample lots
of rteeces. California, AustseUlan and Mon
tevideo wools are moving at full rates.
Everything points to continued firmness In
values with renewed activity as soon as the
goods market becomes active.
The shipments of wool from Boston to
January 6, inclusive, were 3,774,510 pounds,
against 2.982,780 pounds for the same time

MESSAGE NOTNEWS
Wall Street Knew the Presi
dent's Opinions. "
SMALL EFFECT ON STOCKS
Trading:, However, - Almost Ceases
After the Message Is Published.
Easing: of Money Market
Helps Sentiment.
NEW YORK, Jan. 7. Whatever may be the
effect finally of the President's message on
the stock market, it cannot be supposed there
wae anything ia It that was news in that re
gion. The full text of the message was dis
tributed to brokers offices within a few mln
ijtes after ita delivery to Congress, advance
copies' having been on 'hand for that purpose.
The preparation of the document, moreover,
has involved such" widespread consultation and
such free preliminary discussion by the author
in public addresses that scarcely any passage
of It could be regarded B9 a novelty.
Ever since the conference of railroad presi
dents at the White House last Monday, the
stock market has devoted most of its atten
tion to taking measures prompted by the views
of the forthcoming paper. The result was een
In the state approaching idleness Into which
the market fell after the message was pub
lished. In ths movement of special stocks here and
there which occurred during the week. It Is
possible to suppose that action was prompted
by particular paseages of the message.
Putting aside the question of how far spec
ulative action may have anticipated the effect
of the mes&age, the opinion Is clear that grave
weight must attach to the comprehensive and
reasoned plan set for Congrees for dealing with
the corporation problem. The means of com
piling with the proposed law for Federal
charters received more attention than any
other phase of the subject.
The easing of the money market helped the
speculation. The ruling rate for call loans
was below 6 per cent for the first time during
the week.- Preliminary estimates of the
week" currency movement pointed to a heavy
cash gain by the banka. the high call loan
rate early in the week having served, appar
ently, to attract large sums here from the In
terior. The cash g-ain 'was an element In
rallying stocks later in the day.
Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value,
?3,713,uv0. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

CHICAGO. Jan. 7. There was a large vol
ume of trade in wheat today. A forecast of
Irjs Inclement weather to come, together with
milder Northwest temperatures tQduy, prom
ised larger -movement of the crop, which had
a bearish effect on the cash wheat market.
The range in prices was f'c. May showing
the greatest spread from $1.134 to $I.15Vi
The nearby option, however, quickly receded
from the high point and closed weak at
$1.131.13.
The corn pit continued to be the spectac
ular arena, a new high point being estab
lished in the May delivers. Heavy feeding
and crippled rail service cut down offerings
and kept the market strong. The new high
point for May was C94c The more distant
future reached yesterday's high level of 69c
The final figures for May were e$g8'&c,
'c higher. July was a shade higher and
September unchanged.
General speculative trade was large in the
oats pit. In pite of the enormous lusinew,
the range was comparatively" narrow. The
market 'aed. off toward the close of the ses
sion and final figures left May 'Sho lower
and -September .c higher.
Provisions ranged from 2oc lower to 10c
higher.

CODD YEAR ASSURED
Business Outlook Could Hardly
. Be Better.
IRON TRADE IN FINE SHAPE
Flood of Orders Booked in Past Two
Months Indicate Kxceptlonally
Heavy Consumption This
Coming Year.
NEW YORK. Jan. 7. R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly trade review tomorrow will say:
Not In a ha!f decade has a. year opened
with the business outlook so generally aus
picious as 1910. Some of the perplexing
Issues that contributed to the crisis of li0
still remain unsolved, while the question of
high prices has become more acute, but tt
would seem as if business confidence were
not going to permit these things to interfere
with further progress of industry and com
merce. The optimism which usually prevails at
this season is apparently well supported by
economic facts. In the great iron and steel
trade, which Is so basic, this spirit of op
timism Is particularly conspicuous. Condi
tions are not so pronouncedly strong tn some
otber departments, bub with favorable agri
cultural conditions, and with no event, po
litical or otherwise, to Impair the confidence
of business men In the credit structure,
there seems to be no reason to doubt a good
year.
The hide market is dull and weak, with
transactions light and unimportant. All
kinds of foreign hides are easier.
OPTIMISM PREVAILS IN 'ALL LINES
Heavy Consumption of Iron and Steel Prod
' nets IvOoked, For.
NEW YORK, Jan. 7. Bradstreefs tomor
row will say:
'Ihe year opens with a perceptible lull In
trade, though with optimism the underlying
element in all lines. Severe cold weather
and heav snow, sleet or rain storms haVe
checked transportation and retarded coun
try trade, though more or less immediate
benefit to retail trade in eities has accrued
from the impetus given the demand for
Winter goods.
Wholesale lines have been generally
qulef, as salesmen are not fully in their
fields of activity. Collections are rather
slower, and classed generally as only fair,
due no doubt to interruptions to the" move
ment of mulls and of farm products to
market.
Railways are reported to be holding back
some orders for material and equipment,
pending a clearer view of the attitude of
the National Administration regarding rail
way legislation.
For the time being, the iron and steel
markets are relatively quiet, but sentiment
as regards 101O is optimistic. A flood of
orders was booked in the last two months,
and prospects favor an exceptionally heavy
consumption this year.
