NO WOOL SALES YET
Eastern Oregon Market Has
Not Opened.
BOTH SIDES HOLDING BACK
Only a Few Small Transactions Are
Reported in the Valley Re
markable Lambing In
crease This Season.
No prn3rpR3 has been made yet in open
tnjr up the Kastern Oregon ti ool market. A
number of buyers axe on the ground, but
they do not appear to have orders and are
merely looking over the situation. The
general impression Is that buyers and sellers
are apart, but whether this Is so and how
far apart they are are uncertainties, as no
offers to eell or to buy have been made,
f far as reported here. There la no doubt,
however, that the growers would like to
last yeax' prices repeated and U is
equally plain that the buyer expect to
operate on a. lower basts than laat year.
Should rhe market run below the 1909
level, the lona may be made up by the ex
traordinary lamb lnff increase this season. In
anany whole sections the increase Is from.
0 to 30O per cent and one point reports
aa Increase of 105 per cent. Twins are a
frequent occurrence end there is an au
thenticated report of triplets on one ranch.
Shearing is general In Kastern Oregon. In
the Willamette Valley shearing has begun
In a few localities. The only valley sales
reported are the clip of a few small bands
of mutton sheep.
Shearing is now being done in Nevada.
Utah, California. Texas and some parts of
"Wyoming and Idaho, while In the Middle
"Went some sheep are being shorn, says the
Boston commercial bulletin. Despite the
fact that wool is coming off the sheep's
back in so many sections, a comparatively
insignificant quantity Is being bought. In
Utah, a limited quantity was bought this
week from the flockmastera at 15 to 1
eents for the poorer clips and at IT to 18
cents for the better lots. In Nevada buyer
and seller are still apart on prices, while in
Texas, Wyoming and Idaho no transactions
are reported. A little is being done in Cal
ifornia at prices that do not meet with the
approval of many Boston dealers. The
tcrowere of Wyoming are asking from 20 to
35 cent a pound for their 1910 clips and
buyers are not operating.
It Is believed that the ea-me unwilling
ness of Rastrrn. dealers to pay the prices
that the western sheepmen ask will result
in an unusually large number of guaranteed
consignments this seaon, as well as in
creased shipments to the warehouses owned
by sheep interests. The wool dealer con
tends that he cannot pay the extreme prices
demanded by the flockmaster, for wool
must be on a reasonable basis during the
coming light-weight season If worsteds are
to retrain their position or supremacy. Ac
cording to the Bulletin, it is unquestionably
true that the wholesale clothiers were in
fluenced in their purchases of heavy-weight
requirements by the high price ruling on
-worsteds, and to offset the possibility of
another season of comparative inactivity In
the worsted mills, wool merchants should
arrange a reasonable trading basis equitable
to both grower and dealer, and one permit'
ting the worsted manufacturer to buy raw
material for next season at prices permit
ting him to sell goods In substantial volume.
KNGI.IS1C HOP MARK2ET IS FIRM.
Hut Trad Is on a (Small Scale, as Stocks
Are Light.
The Kentish Observer of April HI eald of
the Knglish hop market:
With a steady demand for useful copper
hops tho supply has become very scarce, and
prices are consequently very firm. Tiest
hops are comparatively cheap, the supply
being greater than that of the lower qual
ities so far as English hops are concerned.
American and Continental markets are very
short of best sorts, which fully maintain
their quotations, bxit lower qualities are
weak and In small demand.
The latest circulars of the English hop
factors say:
Wilde, Noarae & Co.. London There is
a fair amount of Inquiry for the time of
3-ear, and values are unaltered.
Manger ft- Henley, London. A quiet tone
prevails. The small business done is of a
hand-to-mouth nature only. Prices remain
unchanged.
W. H. & IT. I,e May. London. There is a
tetter tone n the market in consequence of
more general inquiry for most descriptions
of hops. A fair quantity was taken by con
sumers last week principally out of mer
chants stocks. Growers holdings are ex
tremely small. A quiet business has been
doing during the pat week, chleflv from
merchants' stocks, although 100 pockets of
growers' hops were weighed. Buyers are
oniy laKing nops for present wants.
BITTER PrrPLY CLEANS CP WELL.
Active Demand for Cheese, but Stocks Are
Large.
The butter market was quoted steady to
firm. Although production is now near the
maximum, the daily make el-cans up easily
and soma of the city creameries are run
ning short on their orders, while there is
no surplus of outside brands. There is also
an active demand for cheese, but. stocks are
fairly large.
ine egg market was steady. Average
dally receipts now are not heavy, nor Is
the demand at all keen. I'oultry cleans
up easily at full prices.
The demand for country dressed meats Is
abating, but prices still rule high. Fancy
small hogs bring IS cents, but hogs weleh
lng 20J' to 300 pounds are hard to move at
3 to 4 cents less than this price. Veal is
steady at 11 cents and Iambs at 10iJia cent
STRAWBERK1KS ARE STILL LOW.
Kren With the rVettcr Weather, Stocks TK
Not Clean Vp.
The strawberry market did not show
much improvement yesterday in spite of
the more favorable weather, as the supply
was still In. excess of the Asmand. Low
prices were again quoted. Oregon sold at
$3 a crate. Florins at 66 cents to $1.5-0 and
Los Angeles berries at 50 75 cents. Stocks
did not clean up. Large reoolpts are looked
for today and tomorrow.
Among the miscellaneous receipts w as a
mixed car of head lettuce and cabbage,
The latter was disposed of quickly, tout the
lettuce dragged.
Dull Businee in Grain Market.

Shares Jump.
NEW IORK, May 5. Today' stock mar
ket showed a decrease In the Influence of the
reports of sales of larg. Issues of American
i-mcurltles1 abroad, -whica electrified the market
yesterday. Various considerations entered
Into the moderating of this Influence, but
lessened appreciation of .the practical Impor
tance of the development vu not one of "them.
The market closed buoyant with restored con
fidence. There was apprehension at first that yester
day's reports might have been exaggerated in
several particulars. A. to the amount of
the sales, some of the estimate which al
leged an amount well over ,f 100.000,000
trained credulity.
Late confirmation of the St. Paul band sale
animated the whole market. One reason for
withholding confirmation was that announce
ment, had been premature, leaving the clos
ing up of negotiations incomplete. Another
modifying factor was the absence of knowledge
of the terms on whiah the sales were being
made. Broad Intimations that attractive
prices were necessary in order to enlist the
buying by foreign bankers left open the prob
lem of the final effect of the transaction on
existing issues and their current prices.
An impression .ot around also that loan.
with the new securities as collateral, rather
than outright sales, would be found Involved
In some of the reported operations. A still
more potent modifying factor was the extent
to which the rapid rise In prices yesterday
and at the opening today was discounting the
favorable effect of the bond sales to foreign
ers. The atl-onr return of the Ranlc of "Enc-lHnfl
demonstrated the effective recuperation of the
Xjonaon money position and its complete readi
ness for the government fiscal operations for
whloh it was prepared. New Tork bankers
maintain an attitude of some reserve reerard.

extended loan condition of banks through the
