THE MORNING OltEGONIAN, FRIDAY, XOVE5IBER 13, 1914, 19 HOP BUYING BRISK Over 2000 Bales Are Taken in i Northwest. LOW GRADES ARE CHEAPER Heaviest Business In Wstrn tVasli- ington Since Opening of Season 1 Is Dono by 3IcXeXf Condi- L.. tlons in England. The hoo market woke up yesterday, and trad in if t-tas on a. heavier scale than for the past two weeks. Over 2000 bales changed ' bands In this state and in Washington. Choice hops are still rather firmly held, but tnere was more pressure to sell the lower jrradea. and the cheaper prices at which these are now available has Induced buy true. Ordinary urime hops are quoted at 6 to 8 cents, but for the best remaining . lota. 10 and 11 cents and probably 12 cents Is obtainable. The largest business- done in Western Waahtnrton since the crop was picked was closed yesterday by McNeff Bros., who fcouKht 700 bales in the Ortlng section, comprising the crops of Charles Rries, J. C. X-lndsley. F. s. Miller and Copelands. This firm also bought 300 bales of Oregons, In cluding the crops of Herman Schmidt, at Aurora, and Jones at Kewberg. The J. W. Seavey Hop Company pur chased 600 bales in Washington and Lane counties at 8 to 11 cents. A Banks report stated that H. I Bents had obtained 40O bales in that section at S and 8M: cents. Kn gland Is supplying the British colonies freely out of her large crop, and prices in the English markets are as low as in this country. Over half the English crop has been sold to date. Late circulars from Lon don dealers say: Cattley, Gridley & Co. Trading during the past week has been principally in the best English bops that can be now found. Strictly choice are already exceptionally scarce, and when found full prices are paid for them. A, large Quantity of medium hops Is still on hand, in some cases pressed for sale, thus resulting in lower offers being accepted. A good demand exists for the cheapest Qualities, and prices of such are fully maintained. It is calculated that con siderably over half the crop Is now out of planters' hands. Cables from the Pacific Coast report little business as yet for Eng land, as their currency still remains above that which rules here, and the quality 'of their crops is not generally good. Wild. Neame & Co. There has been a further absorption of East and Mid Kent v srrowths at current rates. The general trade Is inclined to be somewhat slow. Thornton & Manger General trade con tinues very dull, price apparently not af fecting the demand. Choice hops are still In request and fully maintain their value. A limited trade passed in the lower de scriptions. Manger St Henley The demand, continues for choice Geldings, which buyers find, dif ficult to meet with. The general trade for medium and lower grades keeps steady. W. H. & H. Le May Whilst the general trade has been aulet during the past week, the demand for the choicest qualities of all districts continues, prices for which are very firm. Values of f medium and low qualities sire slightly in favor of buyers. RECOVERY IX LOCAL WHEAT MARKET Prompt Delivery Prices Bid Vj on Mer chants Exchange. The local wheat market yesterday recov ered what it lost on the preceding day. Bid prices were raised from half a cent to cents. Salea on the Merchants Exchange consisted of 600 bushels -of prompt club .t 91.14, 50O0 bushels of prompt fortyfold at SI. 17 and 5000 bushels of December blue- stem at $1.19. Red wheat, both prompt and future delivery, was also bid up. The barley market was likewise firmer, with a dollar more offered for brewing and to cents advance in . bids for feed barley, Id ill feed was neglected. The improvement In the wheat market appeared to be due to the half cent advance at Chicago. The London cargo market. however, was 3d lower.

Por the first time in the history of this market Oregon butter is being shipped to the East. - Two carloads of storage butter have been dispatched by a packer and its destination Is supposed to be Chicago. The movement is understood to be in connection with the buying of butter and eggs in East' em markets for shipment to England. The movement of butter from this state likely to have some influence on the local market, as production la steadily decllntn now and the market .is gaining in strength Ko intimation is 'given, -.however, of any early change in prices. Eggs continue firm and fresh Oregons are very scarce, but storage stock is offered freely. Poultry was weak yesterday and chicken j Dec prices were demoralized, riens and springs May sold on the street at a cleanup price of 10 cents.

Including the publication of prices, - was signalized by lively trading on the curb market today. The features were the various subsidiaries of the Standard Oil Company, some of which changed hands at prices considerably above the prices quoted at the close of July 30. when the outside maricet suspended operations because of the war. Other stocks of an industrial or mining character were active, hut the real business. which attained fairly large proportions, was in the oil Issues, for which an out-of-town inquiry was reported. Many stock exchanee houses were repre- seated on the curb and much of the days 1 business seemed to be based on Investment demand. The better tone of this market caused & further rise In listed stocks in the unofficial market, and a new high record for the new city three-year 0 per cent notes. An important development toward the re sumption of regular operations in the lead ing financial markets of the world was recorded today, when sterling exchange fell io normal rates ior tne nrst time since mo begfnninr of the war. Cables on London were auoted at 0.87 and sight drafts at 4.87. There were heavy offerings ot bills. but buyers were scarce, a fact which tended to confirm the belief prevalent in many centers that local banking interests with foreign obligations had purchased more ex change than they had found was necessary. Another feature bearing directly upon this development was the call by the bank ing syndicate, which recently sold $100, 000.000 New York City A per cent notes for payment of another installment to meet maturities falling due In London and Paris. With this subscription, fully three-fourths of the entire $100,000,Guo will have been paid, causing further heavy gold exports to Ottawa. ETxchange on Germany fell to a new low fisuro. the decline being attended bv renorts of the establishment of ad ditional merchandise credits by Hamburg and Frankfort Interests. There were further Indications that prep arations were, beinr made quietly to re open the stock exchange, presumably on a restricted basis, with dealings only for cash. Authorities of the exchange today not only removed the ban prohibiting the publica tion of curb auotatfons. but announcement was made that some houses with exchange memberships were reinstalling private wires to out-of-town points. On the other band, advices from London were of a less reassuring character, so far as they had to do with the resumption of market dealings there. The government's refusal to extend the moratorium woul4, it was feared, necessitate more liquidation, especially in American issues. For the first time in some weeks the Bank of England railed to show a gold increase in its re turns: instead, the bank lost about 11. 000.- O00. Incidentally showing a slight falling off In liability reserves.

In his annual report submitted to Governor West, Corporation Commis sioner Watson says the corporation de partment Is the biggest money-maker for the state of any administrative de partment. He reports that from June 1913, to June 30, 1914, a net sum of $286,116.30 .was turned into the State Treasury By the department. The re port says that, deducting $3605 received on account of 1915 license fees, the net gain is J81S1.D7, or which S6374 repre sented preliminary statement fees under the blue sky law. Permits were Texused 33 applicants during the year, and S85 for the sale of securities were granted. Corpora tions having an aggregate authorized capital of $17,555,500 reduced the capi talization, says the report, to $5,093, 475. Permits granted authorized the sale of $71,365,986 par value stocks and bonds. "The department." -says the report, in one year has driven from the mar ket as a lawful subject of sale $27,878,- 00J of securities in worthless or fraudu lent companies, and has stopped the di rect offering of $6,697,833 of such se curities. Considering the escrowed se curities and the capital wiped out by reductions, a total of approximately $59,564,104 of worthless unproved se curities has been taken from the Ore gon market by tbe tilue sky law." The Commissioner in recommending amendments to the blue sky law sug gests incorporation in the act of fea tures of the postal fraud statutes ot the Federal Government and the Eng lish companies act.
