BANKS MOLD UP RICE
Southern Institutions Keep the
Market Steady.
MANY MILLS CLOSE DOWN
New Prices Named on California As
paragus Grain Markets Are
Slow Apples Venture of
Fruit Trade.
Although rle prices are low, because of
the bis crop in the South, the market is
.nevertheless in a very llrm position.
Advices from the South are that the banks
In many sections, particularly throughout
Texas, have loaned up to the full value, and
in some cases more than the full value,
of th rice- to the farmers. The farmer
are, therefore, rather indiiTercnt to the mar
ket, but the bank are seeing to it that
the market is kept steady. They are hold
ing back the bulk of the rousrh rice from
the mills, giving the mills only what they
must have, and aa a result many of the
p-IanLs have shut down. The bankers are
tn such a, position that they must stand
behind the market and consequently very
little rice is now being offered.
Reports from Colombo. Ceylon, are that
he cocoa nut planters of the island are
finding a better market for their produot
by making copra and selling it to the oil
refiners than by selling the nuts to the
dedicators. Cocoanut oil is now very high
.nd In strong demand. Cocoanuts are higher
In Colombo than for a number of years and
there is no prospect for a decline , in the
market until the new crop comes on in
April. Trices may then drop until the trade
is filled ud again.
The Hlckmott Canning Company, of Or
wood, CaJ., "has Issued its opening prices on
410 park asparagus. The prices are about
the same as at the opening last year.
FSE OF srLFITVR BY HOPGROWERS.
Some Remarks by K. C. Horet, Who Is Now
t In Kugene.
K. Clemens Horst, who is now In Teon
rflnn. writes for Una benefit of Pacific Coast
hop rowers on the question of sulphur, as
follows:
There are only four sources of the Coast
used sulphur: The Nevada and Kola, which
are always arsenic freo, and the Hakodate
and Plclly. which are loaded with arsenic.
The Hakodate and Sicily are all rlglvt to
use after they have been refined, but they
are never imported refined, and no matter
how bright and colory those sulphurs may
be. they aiv? so full of arsenic that thetr.
use will result In serious injury to the
reputation that Coast hops now enjoy in.
the United Kingdom.
Sulphur companies import the Hakodate
and Sicily sulphurs and refine thm. When
they are refined, they are practically free
from arsenic, and they are all right to use
for hops.
As near as I can team, all the sulphur
used by the hopgrowers In England ere re
fined sulphurs, and there is not now, and
never has been, any trouble with English
bops on account of arsenic, but it was quite
d liferent with Coast hops, as for several
years, up to two or three years ago, large
quantities of crude Hakodate sulphur were
Ufvnl by the Coast growers, and there were
no end of complaints and rejections of Coast
hops on account of arsenic, and the reputa
tion In the United Kingdom of all Coast
bops Buffered severely.
On account of the recent United States
customs ruling, that Kobe sulphur is refined
and must pay a duty of $8 per ton, there
Is great danger of Coast brewers going
. back to using the crude Hakodate, which
can be imported duty free, and I advise
all important Coast hopgrowers and hop
Aeaters of the seriousness of this matter,
so that no crude Hakodate or crude Sicily
sulphur will be .used, and so that bops will
continue to be free from arsenic and that
their pnesent reputation in the English mar
ket can be maintained.
rtENTY OF VEGETABLES AND FRUIT.
Market Is Better Stocked Than Since the
Holidays.
Front street was well etocked with fresh
' (produce yesterday. Among the arrivals
were two cars of cabbage and one car
each of celery, cauliflower and oranges.
There is due today a car each of oranges
end lemons, cauliflower and celery.
The demand at present Is quite good, but
mono business could be handled by the job
bers. All lines of truck, are firm.
Apples continue to attract most atten
tion In the fruit trade. A few straggling
Jots of the cheaper grades ana coming in,
but the country is evidently w?II cleaned
ip now of everything except the. good
keepers.
Th demand for oranges is still slow. Tha
quality of the fruit arriving is said to show
Improvement, but so many sour and frosted
oranges have recently been on the market
that the trade has been turnd against the
fruit. With a bettor grade of oranges now
coming along, the jobbers hope there will
fee a revival in the movement.
The three 'cars of bananas brought In
Monday afternoon proved to be all green,
and no ripe fruit can be offered before th
latter part of the week.
c.raix trade almost at standstill.
Neither Demand Nor Offer Ings In the Local
Market.
Business was exceedingly dull in grain
circles yesterday. Some trading was re
ported at Seattle, but in the local market
and up the country neither buyers nor
sellers seemed to be In evidence. Prices as
quoted locally show but little change, -
Receipts In cars were reported by the
Merchants Exchange as follows:

LOCAL EGO TRADE IS SLOW.
Better Demand Expected In the Poultry
Market.
The egg market was steady yesterday,
with a fair supply of ranch stock and a
moderate local demand. The impression
prevails on the street that present prices
cannot hold much longer.
Poultry of all kinds moved at' the former
prices. As the retailers bought sparingly
last week, the jobbers look for a better de
mand this week, but the buyers complain
somewhat of the prices demanded.
Butter and cheese were active and firm.
In country dressed meats, veal is still in
strong demand at 12 Vs cents for fancy, but
pork is less steady than it was and 11
cents was quoted as the top yesterday.

Cattle Iikely to Hold

The livestock market yesterday wa quiet
and the undertone steady to firm. A lot of
64 head of hofts brought 8.75. Fancy stock,
had any been available, would probably still
have brought which the trade now con
siders the top of the market. Cattle are
quoted at last week's range and the im
pression prevails that these prices will hold
for some time yet.

EARLY SALES ENORMOUS
Market Flooded, Western Railroad
Stoeks Being Especially Affected
With Rush of Liquidation Con
ceded to Be Speculative.
NBW TORK. Jan. 25. The drastic liquida
tion which was renewed in the stoock market
today forced prices' to the .lowest level since
the crest of the speculative wave was totiched
last August. Declines over night ran between
3 and 7 polnta in most of the active issues,
with, however, some conspicuous exceptions.
Instances were found 1n the Hill Pacifies and
In the Eastern trunk lines in which stocks
(had been persistently marketed in the period
preceding the present session of urgent pres- TV
sure.
The burden of discussion in stock market
quarters was- in the danger of collision of
corporations with the law and the activities
of the Government.
The attention paid to the . subject in the
dispatches from Washington aggravated -the
apprehension' which began to grow a-cute yes
terday. It was not until the statement on the
subject, made by President Taft, was published
that the pangs of the market were assuaged.
There was much confusion of cause and
effect in the hurly-4mrly of the market. There
was evidence, for instance, that the banks
were engaged in cleaning up the credit ac
counts, and were discriminating with severity
against such stocks as Justified suspicions of
pool manipulation.
The overhauling of loan accounts by the
banks had its incentive in part from appre
hensions aroused by the treatment of corpora
tions y the law, as well as by the criticisms
of the purely speculative position in the mar
ket. The substantial ground for the anxiety that
has grows up In the financial community is
the increasing belief that the Supreme Court
will uphold the Government in the American
Tobacco .case and leave the executive offi
cers of the Government no alternative but to
proceed against combinations and corpora
tion. Consideration of the expected dividend ac
tion on United States Steel practically dropped
out of sight and the stock market closed
with prices near the lowest.
Bonds were weak. Total sales, par value,
$5.13.000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

In a 6000-bushel deal In red Russian. This
amount was sold to an exporter at $1.06.

$1.16, but most millers would not offer
above $1.15. Barley was sold at $4?8.50 and
the most paid for spot oats was $31.75. Ad
vices from country points are to the effect
that grain shipments to tidewater points will
be light for some time. Some export flour
business Is exrpeeted'to be worked on the
recent drop.
.Shipments of ranch eggs from nearby
points were the largest today of the season,
but few eggs came in from Oregon points,
and with a greatly Improved demand, every
thing cleaned up and prices were advanced
to 37 centB tn some quarters. On the other
hand, one prominent firm announced that lt
would not advance the price above 36 cents
in the face of existing conditions. The but
ter market was not as strong today, and if
receipts continue to increase, jobbers state
that a drop will be in order.
A fresh shipment of Japanese oranges ar
rived, but prices were unchanged.
Fourteen carloads of potatoes arrived,
adding to the overloaded condition of the
market.
