The local apple market fe-flrm Xer good stock. The supply In the state is rapidly cleaning up and nearly all the desirable apples have al ready been shipped. The Hood Hirer supply Is running low and practically all the South ern Oregon crop has been disposed of. The few large lots remaining in Eastern Oregon are being tnored to Montana. Of aS total crop in the state of approximately 300,000 boxes, 100,000 boxes were shipped to Eastern points, the best being forwarded from New Tork to London, and about the same quan tity was sent to the San Francisco market. The movement toward the latter place has not yet ceased. California has been, the best outlet xor Oregon apples this .season, owing 'j iit- tiup xanurc m eiaic as enowing i -i i . 3 . . .. . ...

O.VEIDA. N T.. Jan. 16. (To the Editor.) This month has so Tar seen about 10.000 bales a' hops taken by dealers to fill January sales, while they liave mofctly been bought from spec ulators. This one feature causes a strong situation, as no one gets weak-kneed as quick as the speculator. As I understand the situation now, there are out one or two speculators left that are carrying any stock to speak of and after this month the dealer will have to go to the grower Xor the future wants. The whole situation today (now that the speculative feature is removed) lies entirely in the hands of the growers and If they hold rut until April or May they have everything to gain and nothing to lose. As It Is now a one-sided play, with every thing In the growers' favor, there is no io Mbillty of hops easing off In price more than Xrt-m. 1 to 3 cents at the most. There is every possibility of their going 10 to 20 cents lr pound higher. The London market advanced its .quotation r. shillings today, which in Itself Is a etrong feature There ar but 2500 bales left in New Tork State in growers' hands and very few in spec ulators hands. There have been 2500 bales bought from growers here in the past three weeks, o the grower of the Coast have not"i !ng to contend with now but their own ac tions for future development of market prices. I knew of two dealers that have 1800 bales - deliver in February and they have them a'l to buy yet. There are also some large . r liveries to be mado in March, much larger r-r'ibaMy than in February. "We should go Jrto the 1905 crop without a package of old Lone In existence. E. J. SMITH. WOOL MEN ARE CNEASV. Luke County Grower Fear Tariff Re vision. LAKBVIEAV. Or., Jaiu 21. (Special.) The tariff revision agitation is giving rise to some uneasiness in tho woel market. Lake -County -)iecpnin are watching the situation closely. and If the President succeeds In calling Con gress tegothcr before the 1905 clip can get Into the han4 of manufacturers, they fear a fall n the price. On the other hand, if It appears impe4ble for tho President to get an extra tension t aet en the tariff question before Oc- ober. kepmen leok for even better prices than are now effered. Judging from the ef forts at local buyers to pick up clips, there will be very little unsold by the time shearing c ommcneec.

Wheat unchanged, Blue- stem, 90c, club, 83c PRICE LEVEL GIVES WAY STOCKS WEAKEN ON APPEAR ANCE OF 1ANK STATEMENT. Large Expansion in Loans Believed to Be Preliminary to Great Project in Corporation Finance. NEW YORK. Jan. 21. There was a good deal of commotion and some confusion in tha active two hours of trading in today's stock market, but the important changes of the day were confined to a few stocks. The further buoyant rise In the Northwestern grangers was in connection with another rise In the North ern Securities' on the curb. The general level of prices, however, was maintained with dlffl- culty and gave way entirely on the appearance of the bank statement, disclosing an unex pected loan expansion of 934.474.700. This, is far in excess of any previous week's Increase in the loan Item during the history of the clearing-house and it was further notable for the fact that the Increase In loans has been made by the three or four largest banks In the clearing-house,' In which usually concen trated the greatest syndicate operations of the country's most powerful financial groups. Nothing has appeared on the surface to In dicate Into what channel this enormous exten sion of credits may be turned. There have been several bond sales during the week, but suffict tT acnr forproruon. of the loan expansion. Some part of the re- sources thus expended may have gone for the payment of maturing American railroad notes and bonds held abroad, and it Is known that w cmp.uj wau wr mc yurea vestors which are to fall due In a short time. But there will be room still for the supposi tion that .some great project of corporation finance is In progress or being worked out. Compared with this week's great loan in crease, that for the week ending January S3 last year comes nearest to an equal amount. when the bank loans Increased $30,663,300. The only other parallel occurred during the Spring of 3901 preceding the great flotation era, when for eeveral weeks the clearing house banks made increases In the neighbor hood of S30.000.000 in their loans. Today's stock market closed active and easy. Total sales, par value, S5,330,ooo. Dealings at the Stock Exchange this week have expanded to an average of over 1.000,000 shares a day, and the growth In the volume of the bond dealings has been more notable with an Increased health In the demand for Investment issues along with the continued activity In the more speculative bonds. But the tone of the stock market has shown much Irregularity and unsettlement. Tho volatile spurts la & few very active stocks have not carried the general list along Wth them, ana the special movements have se:-ved to beget doubt and suspend rather than encourage gen eral demand for stocks. The money market has been unruffled by all adverse Influences, such as the withdrawal of 10 per cent of the Government deposits from the National banks and the continued outflow of gold to foreign markets. But the heavy Influx of money from the interior to this point has been sufficient to glut the money market. By the falling off in railroad traffic and the easing of the car shortage, the gross earnings for the second week of January do not Te' tain the excess of recent showings over last year. The gold proauction xor American b for the year Just closed Is found to nave risen to a new high record. It Is believed that some light Is thus thrown upon the freedom of the outward movement of gold. With the value of our December Imports lifted to a record figure for a single month, and with tne enormous ehrinkage in the value or cotton ex ports by reason of the fall in. price, we i err.ee rde balance In our favor fell more than S4&000.000 below that of the uecemoer neeew-inir ihus exslalning much of the per- utent strength of the foreign exchange market. The eonflietlne Influences at work have acted - n.n,.clv &rent on the powerful . efforts " Price r,lther tban to mny-ao-Wve de- Plon and the undertone of the marxet nas lieen firm.

Large Increase In Loans Probably Due to Syndicate Bqrrowlng. NEW TORK. Jan. 21. The Financier, dis cussing the weekly bank statement.! says: xne statement showed a good balance, the I sum of the gain in loans and o' cash being I only S25T.900 rreater than the (no-.V in Tfae expSLJ13loa ,n , 6, 474 700 was most llkelr larrelr due n miiini. was most likely largely due to syndicate bor rowing, though the principal banks were al most daily in the market with offerings loans at call, some considerable portion of which must have been placed: possibly also the rates for collateral loans for fixed periods may have induced borrowing by stock ex change operators If not by commission houses, fiie latter, however, to a moderate extent The cash galas were doubtless augmented through sub-treasury operations, including the return to the banks from Washington cf the pro ceeds of National bank note redemptions which have latterly been quite large The move ment of currency from the Interior also con tributed to the cash gala. The statement only partially reflected the surrender of 10 per cent of the public deposits under the November call, which matured last week, the reduction In this item being only $1,552,600 compared with the previous week. Interior banks have, however, effected sur render of their quotas of public funds through their New Tork correspondents. That the state ment was favorable, considered from the buy ers point of view, goes without raying. Lend ers, however, regarded It as unfavorable for the reason that It contributed to greater mone tary congestion. Comparisons show that eight banks expanded loans by $32,600,000 net; five banks gained $9,400,000 net cash. One of the banks showed an Increase of $15,000,000 in loans.

The gift was from the members of the board of directors and executive force, and the presentation was made at Mr. Ladd's home. The loving-cup waa presented to Mr. Ladd by Robert Livingstone, who in a brief - ad dress spoke of the faithful and earnest work which Mr. Ladd had rendered the organization, j y Ready for Artillery. Company II added another victory to Its indoor baseball record last evening at the Armory by defeating Company C with a score of 30 to 10. At the first the game promised to be a hotly contested affair, but "C" showed team weakness and soon the last year's champions were snowing their score deeply under. Austin for "H showed up In the pitcher's box as he did last season, put ting 13 men out at the bat and gave no one a base on balls, while Pugh, of "C," struck out six and walked rive of "H's" men.
