THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, APRIL 25, 1914.
HOP GROWERS WAIT
No Pressure to Sell New Crop
in Oregon.
LOWER PRICES INDICATED
Dealers Figure on Possible Business
at 14 Cents, but There Are So
Sellers at This Price Spot
'.' Market Is Neglected.
J.
There la some interest displayed again
In the hop contract market, but there la
no particular activity in the demand, nor
Jii there any selllne- pressure on the part
of growers, jf business of any volume should
te -worked it -would proDably be at a lower
ranee of values. A few dealers are still talk.
Snip 35 cents, but he general quotation on
the new crop is 14 cents, with perhaps half
a. cent better obtainable on a favored yard.
While a number of growers have Indicated
- they would contract at the higher price
named, no offerings at the lower figure are
likely to be made.
The trade is divided in opinion as to the
advisability of taking1 on new hops at these
quotations. Aside from cases where pur
chases might be made to cover sales already
effected, such operations would be a pure
icamble. as the future of the market is
wholly uncertain. The crops, which are
yet to be made, at present promise very well.
Consumption may, or may not, be seriously
effected by the prohibition movement. An
other undetermined factor is the financial
and industrial condition that may result
front the wjar.
As for the spot market, it has completely
' flattened out- There are no orders on hand
now, so far as known, even at concessions
from lately prevailing prices. Not many
hops remain , in the hands of Oregon grow
ers., only about 6000 bales, and speculators
and dealers at the most do not have over
800O bales in addition. With an active
Eastern and foreign demand this quantity
WOiilri bn Iniilffnlfiranr whuii r-n m no rod
with the total crop, but with demand lack
ing and the new season drawing on, this
supply is sufficient to act as & depressing
weight on the market. Holders are making
no efforts .yet to unload at less than previ
ous prices, hoping that new-crop develop
ments will favorably affect the situation.
The coming month will throw some light
on this phase of the question.
LOOKING -AHEAD IN WOOL MARKET
Buyers Not So Certain as They Were of
the Future Prices.
Kastern wool dealers are beginning to
wonder whether or not they have paid too
much for wools in the West. They have kept
up with the advancers in growers' asking
prices and the market, particularly in this
part, of the country, shows no signs of re
ceding. At the other end, however, they are
commencing to figure on the possibility of
foreign competition when it comes to selling
the domestlo wools they have bought. A
writer In an Eastern trade paper says on
the subject:
t uDtrftGLmg operation, especially those
which have been without the least regard
to conditions in this market or the probable
future basis of wool here, are still open to
Criticism. The Pnrlv nnpralnrt Af wall ma
1st led with the prospects. In fact they be
moan having failed to buy more extensively
before the rates advanced in the West. Fur
thermore, the situation stands in their favor
for the moment in this center, with the
likelihood of a ready turnover of the firs
UTJvalS. at a profitable .lf.Vf.l-.nf nrfrM
"Conservative interests, however, see an
obstacle ahead for the wools secured at
higher prices. Foreign wools are going to
be a. substantial factor in the reckoning.
The first wools are expected to bring good
prices because of the demand for finishing
the season on lightweight goods. Manu
facturers may pay high levels on these, but
pressure will be exerted by them, so soon
'.as pressing needs are well covered. If deal
ers hold for prices not Justified by the con.
dltlons in the goods market, manufacturers
will have foreign wools upon which to fall
back."
WHEAT TRADE TjXDER DIFFICULTIES
Smallness of Stocks. Lack of Demand and
Buyers and Sellers Apart.
The wheat market has reached that
point where It is about as difficult to sell
as to buy. The demand is anything but
hrlsk .and efforts to dispose of even small
quantities in this part of the country meet
with failure, unless material concessions
are made. On the other hand, when a
dealer receives an Inquiry, which is some
thing unusual these days, he finds it al
most impossible to buy. unless he bids above
the market level for the grain. These con
ditions are tho result, not only of the In
activity of the market, but of the extreme
scarcity of wheat. The supply is so small
that not even a war scarce would bo likely
to affect prices. The cut in Oriental rates
produced only a-Wiomentary ripple on the
market, whereaVSad there been much
wheat left here, the freight reduction
would undoubtedly have, had wide effect.
There is still some inquiry on the Sound
for wheat for Oriental account, but none
here. The prices bid by the Japanese In
the North are not acceptable to sellers.
The California market continues firm,
largely because of the limited arrivals.
Weekly . foreign wheat shipments . were
na follows:

LAST BERRIES IN FROM LOS ANGELES
Heavy Shipments Will Arrive From Florida
Next Week.
Half a car of Los Angeles berries arrived
yesterday and cleaned up at $1.131.23 a
crate. This winds up the shipments from
that point as rains have checked the move
ment and Sacramento districts are now
offering plentifully. Part of a car came In
from Fresno, and sold at 1.751.90. A
full car of Fresno berries is expected to
day, A car of letture was received yesterday.
A car of yellow Texas onions Is due today,
a car of crystal wax onions on Monday and
a mixed car of yellow and white onions
from Texas on Wednesday. Vegetables of
nearly all kinds were scarce on the street.
No tomatoes will be available until the
middle of next week.
Poultry Receipts Are Light.
Receipts of poultry were lighter than
usual yesterday, but were of sufficient size,
as the demand was not strong. Prices were
- quoted unchanged.

quotations.

ed next week on the arrival of a large
hipment from Tillamook by the Elmore.

RETAIL TRADE GOOD
General Business Not Dis
. turbed by Mexican War.
STOCK MARKET UNSETTLED
Sharp Fluctuations in Security
Prices Paris May Withdraw Gold
Trom This Side as Sterling Ex
change Is, on Elxport Basis.
NEW YORK, April 24. Dun's Review to
morrow will sa,y:
General business Is not disturbed by the
Mexican trouble, but temporary unsettle
ment prevails in financial markets. Prices
of securities fluctuated sharply at times. Po
litical influences had some effect on rates
for money, which advanced slightly.
There hss been an Insistent continental
demand for gold at London and It Is the
expectation that Paris will shortly begin
to withdraw the metal from this side, as
sterling exchange Is now virtually on an
export basis.
Changes in strictly mercantile conditions
are of mixed character, with the backward
Spring tending to hold progress in check.
Failures this week number S33 In the
United States, against 307 last year and
40 in Canada, compared with 46.
TRADE CONDITIONS LITTLE CHANGED
yarmer Weather and Ciood Crop Prospects
Help Some Sections.
NEW YORK, April 24. Bradstreet's will
say tomorrow:
Aside from an Improvement noted in retail
trade west, northwest and southwest, the
result of warmer, more Spring-like weather
and flattering early-crop prospects, trade
and industry has not shown any particular
change this week. Indeed the quieter con
ditions heretofore ruling have been rather
accentuated by the uncertainty evident as to
the outlook for war or peace, and aside from
a slight, apparently temporary fillip given
commodity prices and some bear drives
against prices of securities, 'the situation,
broadly speaking, shows few new develop
ments. For the week, failures are 318, against 273
laat year; wheat exports 2,764.010. against
.404,024; bank clearings. $3,086,185,000.
an. increase of 14.2 per cent.
EUROPE SELLS STOCKS
FOREIG.V UNLOADING AGAIN DE
PRESSES WALL STREET.
Mexican Crisis and Illness of Austrian
Emperor Cause Uneasiness Abroad.
Low Prices Start Buying;.
NEW YORK. April 24. European selling
waa largely responsible for the general de
cline in stocks today. Foreign markets were
nervous over the Mexican crisis and tho de
pression due to this Influence was Increased
by the Illness of Emperor Francis Joseph.
Europe unloaded slocks here steadily, tell
ing for foreign account was variously esti
mated at 30,000 to 00.000 shares.
The market at the opening followed the
lead of London, where prices of American
stocks were marked down. Trading during
the forenoon was unusually active. There
appeared to be a more general fear In the
financial district of a war and liquidation
was more widespread. " A new low average
for the downward swing was reached.
The lower Jevel attracted buying and led
to short covering. This increased demand
for bqth accounts checked the decline and
in the afternoon there was a rally. Towards
the close, however, prices eased off again.
Canadian Pacific waa again thrown over
in- large amounts by European holders and
was also sold here by Montreal. It was
forded down more than 5 pomts and reached
the lowest price at which it has sold since
It became a 10 per cent stock. New Haven
also developed pronounced weakneas. as did
Mexican Petroleum. Smelting and Southern
Pacific, which are affected by the Mexican
trouble.
Bonds .were lower, with active selling of
some high-grade Issues. Total sales, par
value. 2.2UO,00O. Government bonds were
again depressed, with most pronounced
heaviness in Panama 3s. United States 2s
coupon declined 4 and the 4s V4 on ealL
Panama 2s fell United States 2 regis
tered declined ?i on actual sales and 3s
coupon 74.

WHEAT OFF ON RAIN
Downpours Cause Further
Weakness at Chicago. .
SELLING NOT AGGRESSIVE
Good Authorities Ieclure Abandoned
Acreage Will Be " Very Small.
Consignments Sent to Balti
more as Supply Point.
CHICAGO. April 24. Wheat prices turned
downward today on account of the general
rains supplementing the much-needed mois
ture received during the previous 24 hours.
Selling, however, was not at all aggressive
and the close was steady at H to tc net
decline. Other leading stapk-s. too. all
showed a setback corn iVjc to i c,
oats a shsde to He and provisions 3 to 20c.
The downpours In the West and South
west resulted Immediately in extensive sales
of cash wheat to come here from Kansas
City. Besides, good authorities were quoted
as declaring that abandoned acreage would
now be very small. Considerable Interest
was taken In a report that consignments of
No. 2 red Winter had been made from To
Ido to Baltimore. notwithstanding that
Baltimore prices are nominally lower than
quotations at Toledo. Millers explained
that Baltimore may be a more Important
point soon tor Army and Navy suppllea
Corn went lower In consequence of a fall
ing off in cash demand both Bast and West.
In the provision pit the offerings for the
packers and other longs were too heavy to
be readily absorbed. Higher prices for hogs
failed to act as an offset.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Commissioners Decide They Cannot
Take Funds From Road Appro
priation ow.
No additional sums will be appro
priated by the County Commissioners
for the Gresham Fair or the Land Prod
ucts . Show. Each of the organiza
tions will receive half of the 3S000
available for such purposes.
Request was made by the committee
front the land show for 3000 of the
32500 that they lid not use last year,
and which subsequently waa trans
fered to the road fund, but tho Com
missioners refused this request on the
ground that they could not transfer the
money back from the road fund. The
sum went to this fund automatically
when not used by the Land Products
Show.
Under the provisions of an act passed
by the 1913 Legislature, 310,000 was
available for agricultural and livestock
displays, one-half of this to go to the
Pacific International Livestock Asso
ciation. The remaining 35000 and 33000
provided in the budget for the Uresham
Fair was all that the Commissioners
would give to the two organizations,
and a Joint committee appointed sev
eral days ago reported yesterday that
they were willing to divide the total
amount. Representatives of the Land
Products Show promise to double or
triple this amount.
Members of the two committees
were: H. A. Lewis, president; F. A.
Miller. R. W. Gill and G. F. Johnson,
of the Gresham Fair Association, and
J. S. Beall. president; C. Chapman.

CANADIANS WANT TO HELP
Those AVlio Saw Service in South
Africa Would Aid America.
LEWISTON, Idaho. April 24. (Spe
cial.) That the Canadians are In
hearty sympathy with the United States
In the present difficulty with Mexico,
was the assertion of Walter Sangster,
of Anatone, who has just .returned
from an extended visit in Alberta and
British Columbla.
The English people and Canadians
are as keen about the unsettled condi
tion of Mexico as is the United States,"
said Mr. Sangster. "The sentiment In
Canada is strongly with the United
States and the Knglish people have ex
pressed a hope that the scope of oper
ations may be extended until England
will be allowed to join with the United
States in clearing up all of the rebel
lious countries to the Isthmus and even
into South America. They regard the
rebellions in Mexico, Central America
and the South American countries as
holding back the development of the
richest sections the world possesses
and that the time has come for the
nations to take a hand in restoring
order.
"At Lethbridge there are 100 men who
saw service in South Africa who are
ready to come ovor the border and ten
der their services to tho United States
as soon as a call for volunteers is
made."
