Oregon Onion Growers Are
Averse to Contracting.
PROSPECTS ARE TOO GOOD
Only Agreements That Are Accept'
Die Are ior eea ana taiuum t
Purposes Steady Movement
In the Past W eek.
Representatives of several Oailfornla
onion dealer are BtlU trying to secure
contracts on the coming Oregon crop, but
without success. So far as can be
' learned, not a single contract has been
written for onions that will be put on the
market next Fall, but considerable seed
acreage has been negotiated for. In ad
dition to the 60 acres of seed onions con
tracted for by C. C. Morse, of San Fran
cisco, reported In this column a week
ago, the Braston Seed Growing Company,
of San Jose, is seeking to make a con
tract for 60 acres of seed In this state.
The Oregon Canning Company, of this
city, Is also negotiating for 60 acres of
onions for canning purposes. The canned
onions are bought mostly by the Gov
ernment for use of the Army. 6uch con
tracts meet with the approval of the
Confederated Onion Growers' Association,
but the members are a unit In opposition
to writing contracts for commercial
onions. They realize the splendid pros
pects for remunerative prices In the com
ing season and naturally want the
profits for themselves. Planting is now
general in the valley. The acreage will
be somewhat larger than last year.
Reports read at yesterday's meeting of
the association showed a further dwin
dling of the meager supply of last year's
onions left In the state. There are only
100 sacks left at Cornelius, the shipments
of the week being 100 sacks, which were
sent to Portland. Tualatin shipped two
cars at cents and has two cars re
maining. Cedar Mills shipped 1S2 sacks of
first-class onions at 3 cents and 75 sacks
of No. 2 stock at U4 cents, and has 375
sacks left. The shipments from Bcholls
were 75 sacks local and 650 sacks remain.
Sherwood disposed of a car In the pre
vious week at 2.55, another car is ready
to go, and there is about a carload left.
No report was received from Woodburn,
the only other section In which there are
any old onions.
lue local trade situation Is unaltered.
There is a moderate Bupply on Front
street and quotations are variously made
at from 8 to 4 cents. A car of Texas
Bermudas Is due In a few days and an
other car will follow It soon after. It Is
understood this stock will be marketed
4 at 6 cents. Samples have been received of
Bermudas from Thermal, Gal., but no
orders have been placed yet.
WEAK TONE IX BUTTER MATtKKT
Some of the City Creameries 8ald to be
Shading- Price.
The butter market was weak, but with
out Quotable change. There were rumors
that some of the city creameries were
shading prices, but the open quotation
was not changed. On Front street the
tone was easy and quotations varied con
jlderably. Eggs were steady, with the receipts
and demand about equal. The latter was
helped by some good shipping orders, but
for which prices might not have been
maintained.
Receipts of live poultry were slim and
the few chickens that came In were
eagerly taken up at full prices. Two carB
of Eastern dressed poultry are on the
way to Portland, one of which Is due
- to arrive tomorrow and the other a week
' later.
California prune Prospects Uncertain.
Mall advices from San Jose, Cal., say
that owing to the developing of the buds
It will be impossible to tell for ten days
whether or not the prunes will set well.
Many of the trees blossomed after the
storm, but a large portion o them were
already In bloom during the last part of
the bad weather. Whether these have
been damaged by the wet spell remains
to be seen, but so far all the trees have
a healthy look and seem to be progress
ing well. The aprloot crop In the Santa
Clara Valley will be very poor, the trees
being " mostly barren, although showing
signs of a crop in a few sections.
Strawberries Arrive More Freely. ..
California strawberries are arriving
more freely. A lot came up from Florin
yesterday, and notwithstanding the late
delivery they sold well at J3.76 per crate.
A car of Los Angeles cabbage was re
ceived and quoted firmer at Sft cents per
pound. There were no other heavy ar
rivals during the day. Four cars of
bananas came in last night.
Local Potato Market Steady.
There are no new features In the
potato market. Eastern stock continues
to arrive and meets with reaTly sale, as
Oregon potatoes are scarce. The San
Francisco market, according to a wire
received yesterday, was weak. Onions
were also quoted easy there, arrivals of
both articles being In excess of the de
mand. Bank Clearings.

I WAIT NG MOOD
Stock Speculation at New
York Almost Lifeless.
PRICES ARE HARD TO MOVE
Operators Seeking Xlght on the
Future Course of Events Before
Embarking on New Ventures.
' Bonds Are Very Sluggish.
NEW YORK, April 20. There was no
perceptible current in the pries move
ment of stocks today until the prices
stiffened slightly with a few of the
speculative features advancing. Tha
volume of dealings was lnsigrnificant.
The unfavorable bank statement was
anticipated and was ignored. In fact,
the weakening . bank position In New
Fork Is accepted as an Index of actual
relaxation of money conditions, since
the expansion of New York bank loans
Is due to the taking-over of loans from
Interior banks, which find no attrac
tion In tlie prevailing; low level of
Interest rates In New York. Trust
companies are also out of ths local
market, and the clearing-house banks
are left to meet the demand for cred
its and to accept the diminished in
terest returns. The prevailing ease of
the local money market Is having the
effect also of prompting the paylng-off
of maturing foreign obligations, as was
shown by the firmness of the foreign
exchange market today. The declin
ing money rates which continued In
London today do not seem to affect
the progress of the remittances to pay
foreign loans. The gain In cash by
the banks was nearly equal to previous
estimates.
Prices of bonds showed some slight
Improvement, but business in that de
partment was profoundly dull. Sales
of bonds were $720,000.
Dealings at the stock exchange this
week have been almost wholly in pro
fessional hands and have been on a
rapidly-diminishing scale. The appear
ance of the market approached semi
stagnation at times, the room-traders
themselves desisting from the appar
ently futile attempts to arouse any
outside Interest
One small failure by a stock ex
change house, while not Important in
itself, was regarded as significant of
the consequences of the severe decline
In prices. It goes without saying that
the market must bear the weight of
future efforts to repair damage and to
adjust crippled affairs, while await
ing a more favorable opportunity for
reduction of the burdens. This con
dition gives credence to all sorts of
rumors of financial embarrassments
and makes the market sensitive. The
present mood of the speculation seems
to be a waiting one, with a desire for
light upon the course of future events
before embarking on new ventures.
The money outlook is felt to be ob
scure still, and Is the subject of keen
scrutiny. Following last week's rec
ord loan expansion of the New York
banks, there has been a perceptible
hardening of the money market this
week.
The bond market has been dull and
sluggish and the undertone has been
heavy on that account. United States
bonds were unchanged on call during
the week. t

LOAN EXPANSION GREAT
INCREASE IN PAST WEEK OVER
TWENTY-FIVE MILLIONS.
One of tbe Results of the Easier
Money Market Gain In Cash
Agrees With Estimates.
NEW YORK. April. 20. The Financier
says: The offlclaT statement of the New
York Associated Banks showed, as the
most notable feature, a further expansion
of $25,347,800 in loans, following the unpre
cedented sain of about 837,000,000 record
ed In the previous week, making the
total Increase In this Item during the
fortnight $02,175,000. In this Interval cash
Increased a little more than $4,000,000. The
expansion in loans here noted was largely
the -result 1 of the recent shifting hither
from London, to take advantage of the
low rates ruling in our money market,
of large amounts of loans which had been
placed at the British capital on American
stock collateral. Such expansion was also
due to the fact that owing to the ex
tremely low rates for money on call,
trust companies quite generally left on
deposit their balances at the banks un
disturbed Instead of loaning their funds
at rates at least no better than those
that were paid by the banks on trust
company balances. The banks sought to
employ these increased balances throuah
liberal loaning at current rates on can,
and hence ihe remarkable Increase In the
volume of such loans.
The cash gain reported by the .week's
statement was $2,477,300. which amount
closely agreed with the majority of the
estimates that were based upon the trace
able movements of money. Owing to the
Increase of $26,601,800 In deposits, the re
quired reserve was augmented $6,623,400,
deducting from which the gain in cash,
as above, left $4,118,100 as the decrease in
surplus reserve to $11,704,825. Computed
upon the basis of deposits, less those of
831.012,300 public funds, the surplus Is $19,
607.900. The statement of the Clearing-House
banks for the week follows:
Increase.
Loans $1,126,004,900" $25,347,800

The Polk County mohair pool of 50,000
pounds of hair was sold to Herman
Metzger, of Portland, today at 80 cents
a pound net to the growers.
Sealed bids were first called for, but
the large number of buyers present did
not seem to favor that plan of selling,
and only one bid was received. The
bid -was rejected by the selling com
mittee, and the hair was then sold at
auction. The. price paid by Mr. Metz
ger Is practically 30 cents, as the
cost of handling the pool will be about
cent a pound. The next lowest bid
was 29 cents, made by Theodore
Bernhelm, of Portland.
By an arrangement between the
buyer and Secretary H. L. Fenton. the
growers will receive 30 cents net. The
growers decided, before receiving the
bids, to reject any offer under 30
cents and to ship the mohair direct to
the Eastern mills In the event that a
less figure than 80 cents net -was
offered.
Shearing Is about finished In Polk
County, and the mohair Is being de
livered at the various warehouses.
The growers are well satisfied with
the price received for the pool, which
Is three-quarters of a cent higher than
was paid for other Oregon pools this
season, and a full cent more than mo
hair has been selling for In the open
market.
