SELL ONIONS FUST
Growers Are Taking Advan
tage of Present High Prices.
BIG SHIPMENTS MADE
Twenty-three Cars Disposed Of by
Farmers In Last Two Weeks.
Only 55 Curs Reimiin
Vn-oll in Oregon.
Oregon onion. growers ar selling et
a rapid rate, showing a wtUingneas to
fake advantage of the high prices now
pruvaillns. The "smallness of tlio
tocks remaining insures -a. firm posi
tion for the market, unless shipments
from outside points should berome.
heavy sooner than expected, whilr
the manner in which other Oonst
markets are absorbing the shipments
from here shows' that no fear Is to
he felt In the Immediate future from
the results of the present free move
ment. In the past two weeks S3 cars of
Oregon onions have been sold by grow
ers, according to returns made at the
meeting yesterday of the Confederated
Oiitnn-Urowers' Association. All these
ears have been shipped, together wlcta
11 cars bought previously, making u
total of 34 cars of onions that have
gone out of Oregon In the two weeks.
Of the S3 cars sold, about half brought
the top price, 12.50, and the others
which were, sold early in this period
went at the llgure then current.
The association estimates 55 cars of
onions left In first hands in the state
and something over 20 cars held by
buyers, which arc now being shipped.
As the consuming trade so far has
taken all the onions shipped at a rising
tale of prices, there is no reason to
believe the marketing of the remainder
will adversely affect values. In some
rtuarters of the trade it is considered
likely a further small advance may
take place, hut other dealers consider
the top of the market to have been
reached. The only unfavorable factor
in the situation Is the offering of
onions on the Coast from other sec
tions It is suid that the California
and Texas crops will be ready for sale
earlier -than usual. Japanese onions
will also be put on the market before
long, a earlot being due here March 1.
on the steamer Numantla Kastern
onions have also been offered some,
what freely on the basis of Jl.40Stl.60
f. o. b. Chicago, with a freisht rate of
90 cents.
CONDITION LONDON APPLE MARKET
Quality of Oregon Newtown Not Equal to
I'oruier (hlpmeuts.
The weekly apple report of W, vcnnis
& Sons, London, says:
'"We are glad to say that our market
has been a gradually advancing one for
tho past ten days, and 'that really good
No. I fruit shows a vej-y considerable
rise in .price. There has been during the
past week an active demand for Can
adian Greenings. No. 1 grade, the best
duality of which have been, selling from
20 to 21s-per barrel; Baldwins, "No. 1,
from 17s to 3tfs; Golden Kussets, from 17s
to Sus, and other No. 1 grade stuff has
shown a similar advance in price. On ..ie
other hand, whilst we -have had better
prices for No. 3 grade than those recent
ly ruling, the advance has not been so
marked as in the better grades. Indeed,
there is such a lar.ie quantity of this In
ferior stun coming forward from Nova
Hcolia as keeps the demand for that ar
ticle fully supplied. What will be wanted
from now on to the end of the season at,
we are inclined to think, good prices,
will be really first-class No. 1 fruit. .
"In box apples, the situation Is also
better, but unfortunately much of, this
fruit Is arriving very unsalisfaotorily as
to condition. Oregon Newtowns are for
the most part, even when sound, distinct
ly Inferior in quality and general ap
pearance to those of previous years,
whilst in addition, we regret to say, many
pa reels are arriving In a very wasty con
dition and have tho appearance of having
been affected by frost somewhere en
route before shipment. Really good Ore
gon 4-tier frjilt- Is selling at from ISs to
14h per box, but there are many of in
ferior duality selling at from 10s to lis,
and wasty parcels at much below these. '

Hujers Taking; "Tin Offered I,ot at In
changed Prices.
Hops are going out of lirst hands at a
very satisfactory rate, though the surplus
Is still too heavy.' The demand Includes all
grades, wltii most of the inquiry coming
from the Eastern trade. The export de
mand Is small.
The Quoiig Hlng lot of "210 bales at Sa
lem has been bought by William Brown &
Co. at J'i cents. Catlin & Latin bought
the Spaulding lot of 51 bales at Salem at

Stevenson Brothers secured llsiales from
Krusc at o cents and Metzler the Stang

"By next Thursday or Fri.lav," said
Conrad Krebs, at the .Belvedere Hotel
yesterday, "we will know just where lue
hop growers--union stands. We are tabu
lating the acreage of the state and .wheri
tho figures. are all in. if the comparison
of acreage signed up for the union .s
not favorable, the Idea will be given up.
If it Is favorable, you may depend on
It, no time will be lost in putting tho
union on an active business footing. New
members are being secured daily, several
hundred acres having been added to t.ie
toll today."

LAST PRICES LOWER
Stocks Under Selling Pressure
and Demand Torpid.
SUDDEN WEAKNESS SHOWN
Some of the Liquidation Attributed
to Foreign Account, and Wall
Street Blames President for It.
Bank Statement Confused.
NEW YORK. Feb. 1. Demand for
stock was torpkl today and prices
drifted downward. Sudden weakness
was marked at different t(me and In
special stocks. Some of the selling:
was attributed to foreign account and"
TVall street expressed fear that dis
trust of American securities, as a re
flection of the tone of the President's
message to Congress yesterday, was
Indicated by this selling. A reviving
demand for' American securities abroad
is hoped tor as an aid to absorption
of contemplated new capital issues, and
any check to the demand would be a
discouraging factor In the financial
outlook. Stocks of companies with new
Issues in the market were conspicuous
in the decline, notably Missouri Pa
cific and the Rock Island issues. Some
of the Industrials were weak also In
connection wlth suggestions that they
mlirht be the object of fredi proceed
ings by the Federal Government In
line with the policy formulated In the
President's message.
There wag much discussion of the
formal announcement of the determin
ation of the United States Steel Cor
poration and other leading Interests In
the trade to maintain prices.. . The ad
vantage of stable conditions in en
couraging future committments In
business affairs Is the feature of this
policy, which receives -approval. There
Is tho recognition, however, that It is
by curtailment of output and preven
tion of accumulation of stocks that
pursuit of the policy Is made feasible.
The effect of attempted economies of
the railroads to meet contraction in
their earnings offers another feature
of the situation which Is given consid
eration. Reports of some resumptions
among mills In the steel trade proved
of no effect in holding prices, nor did
the opinion of the mercantile agency
reviews, pointing to an Improvement in
commercial lines. Selling throughout
tho list was freely in force in the lat
ter market and last prices were not
far from the lowest.
The bank statement showed the ex
pected increase in cash holdings, but
the averages were confused by the de
duction from the average accounts of
the four minor banks which have been
closed since the last statement was Is
sued. The completion of preparations
opens the way for a report next week
to the State Banking Department of
the -condition of state banks and trust
companies, thus providing for a com
plete exhibit -of the local money situa
tion each week.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par
value, $2.00,000. United States 2s de
clined and the 4s registered J4, while
the 3s advanced A per cent on call
during the week.

WHEAT PIT NERVOUS
-But a Stronger Under-Current
Is Apparent.
TENDENCY TO ADVANCE
Improved Demand . for Wheat and
Flour by Exporters Creates Good
Feeling Late in the 'Session.
Effect on Other Grains.
CHICAGO, Feb. 1. The wheat market
opened firm on corerhig by shorts, .de
mand being based oA a steady market at
Uverpool and on much smaller receipts
In the Northwest. Sentiment continued
quite bullish for a time, but towards the
end .of the first hour prices broke sharply
on renewed profit-taking by several of
the large holders. The May option showed
the greatest loss, the price dropping lc
below the high point of the day. Shorts
again bought freely on the break, which
soon caused the recovery. Throughout
the remainder of the session, the market
was very nervous, but buyers seemed to
predominate and prices were inclined to
advance. Late news told of an iiBproved
demand for wheat and flour by exporters,
and this helped to create a firmer. fetling.
The close was steady. May opened "Js'S'Jic
higher at 9HJJ96c, sold oft to iH?i- and
closed at 95"sst96c. .
.Corn was Inclined to follow the course
of wheat prices. The market was firm
at the start in sympathy with wheat and
on maller local receipts than had been
expected. Prices slumped following the
break in wheat, but rallied again owing
to a fair demand front 4-horts. Tho close
wag steady. May opened -xif-Sc higher at
t9a59c. sold up- to 5!c and then de
clined taiAc.' The close was at MviUWc.
There was a moderate trade. In oats and
the market was influenced almost en
tirely by wheat, and corn. May opened
unchanged at 51e, sold up to 51c and
then declined to 5074c The close was at
51c.
Provisions were quiet owing to the fact
that traders generally were disposed to
await the monthly statement of stocks
in store. The market was steady the
greater part of - the day. At the close
May pork was off 12Mr'3c at $12.07
J12.10, lard was higher at J7.67 and

The injured received slight burns, and
cuts and none is in a dangerous condi
tion. All of the dead except Mrs. Bert
lived in Kansas City.
The fire started from an explosion of
natural gas in the basement at 3 o'clock
this morning. The flames and dense
smoke spread .quickly throughout the
bulldinf?, and before an alarm could be
given ail means of escape by the ordinary
exits had been shut off. The live persons
who lost their lives were asleep on the
third floor, and all save Mrs. Bert were
burned to death in their rooms.
The injured slept on the lower floors and
in the basement. M,ost of these escaped
without aid. fighting their way through
the flames and smoke. The liremen were
able to rescue others from the burning
building.
Mrs. Bert lost her life In trying to
arouse the Inmates.
There were 22 persons in the build
ing when the fire broke out. Most of
the roomers worked at night as wait
resses and cooks at nearby hotels and
restaurants, and had retired only a
short time previously, and they were
deep in slumber. This fact doubtless
accounts for the inability of Mrs. Bert
to awaken them. .
The Jjuilding was one of the oldest
In the city and was a veritable lire
trap, and when the firemen arrived it
was) then already doomed.

The Hague Peace Meeting Kespon
Bible for World's Good Condition.
CHICAGO, 111., Feb. 1. "To the Hague
conference we are indebted more than
any other cause, that the entire civilized
world is enjoying the blessing of gen
eral peace," said Jacob M. Dlcinson,
a representative of tho United States at
the first peace meeting, to the members
of the Industrial Club of Chicago at the
eleventh annual dinner of the organiza

dent of the American Bar Association,
and general counsel for the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad Company, and was heard
by more than 1C0 persons. Ho reviewed
the peace conferences of 1818 and 1907
and . declared that their influence has
been of vast importance to the civilized,
nations.
"No one but a dreamer," said Mr. Dick
inson, "ever expected all war to be abol
ished. The world was not expected to bo
petrified into states in their present form
without the possibility of chungu of ter
ritory."' Mr. Dickinson paid tribute to Pres
ident Roosevelt and John W. Foster for
the efforts they made to make results
of the Hague conferences lasting. It
was by reason of the Hague conference
in 1907, he claimed, that president Roose
velt was enabled to intervene between
Russia and Japan. The conferences also
had stopped the forcible collection of
debts by European nations" from South
American powers. Since the first Hague
conference. 50 arbitration treaties had
been made. Great Britain had been a
party to nine. Russia to three. Germany
to one and France to seven. Tho United
States, for various reasons, had made
