0 THE STJXDAY OREGOXIAN. PORTLAND. OCTOBER 4. 190S. HOPS CUE HANDS iT - About 5000 Bales Sold in the T Past Week. KlABER BIGGEST BUYER Foreigners Likely to Find the Crop Cleaned Vp AVhen They Come Into the Market Delayed Receipts of Produce. In apite of the apparent qaiV"" "f " -,p mark;. supplies passing out of first hand, at quit a rapid rale. A con servative e-tlmat. of the tola! sales In the past week la MOO bale. At the crop Is l'ht and prei-lnus cnntrartlng took large por tion of th. supply off the market, the sur rlu. ava:lable probably not over 30.000 Uln-cMKcl last long tf th buying con tlnu at th am rat a.

The Ore-ron market la Ilk a:i th other marketa of the world In o- rprt. choice hop are Terr Brm and lower grades very weak. Th heaviest ooeratlona In the nate are credited to Klaber. Wolf Netter. It la reported their purchaaea In the laat three lava amount to over 3000 bales. A good many small lota taken on by other dealer, are understood to b for their account.

He Is looked upon this season aa a speculator -who la buying aolely against the future. Paul Horst tried th aame scheme two years ago. but Horst groe-.lv underestimated th crop and cam out loeer Everything thla year aeems to favor speculative operations. Th only cholc Farlne Coast hops to be had are Oregon, and that the limited quantity produced her will be called for by brewer goes without saving. Th bulk of thee hop aeem to be passing under the control of Klaber and lila aasoclatea. When the English Arms, with their proverbial slowneas. come into the market for their annual aupply of Ore gone, they will either hav to buy them from Klaber or bid up sharply for what la left In th country. In either cae bene fiting th big holder. According to the English hop papers, th quality of th Kngll.h crop of l:n I reedlnrtr '.pott.-d. the bulk of th crop bavin been badly .polled by th storms early In September. This fact probably accounts for the Inactive condition of tha London market. Th latst weekly trade rwrulara of a few of the London hop fac tors lollow: Wild. Neame Co. There Is a fair in quiry for the best samplea which come to hand very .lowly. Other grade are neg-l-cted or only meet with attention at decidedly unremuneratlve rales. Manger Henley There Is a good de mand for th beat hope of all districts; other grades are difficult to move. W II H. 1.

The demand for th brightest is good and the brown ones are taken at relative values. Exchange and Hop Warehouses Business In the new crop haa now commenced, anil there Is a fair demand for good, quality olory hops, but the market at present .s sparingly supplied, some business haa been transacted In yearlings.

HARRIMANS LEAD RISE Improved Baslnests Conditions Help the Cause Along: Increase in Im migration Shows End or Period of Depression. NEW YORK. Oct. J. The stock market continued to feel the reviving enect of yes terday' stimulation of speculation In Union Pacific by the showing of August net earn ings by that road. Union Pacific continued to lead the market and to exercsse a dom inant aympathetlc effect on the whole llot. The close sympathy shown by Reading and St. Paul Mock gave the Impression that the same money forces which co-operated to further the late advance were again active by moving toward the aame end. In the search for motives for thi supposed resumption of speculative leadership of the market, the moat dwelt-upotl was the In creased satisfaction on the part of operators with th present outlook. Note waa made of th fact that Immigration statistic show that the tide has again ahlfed to the side of a preponderance of In come ra, after having ruled the other way ever aince the period of In dustrial depression set It. A recession In the discount rate at Berlin ahowed th' passing of the strain of the ex traordinary requirement of th October set tlements.

The latest stories of the weather were brought in on the Moltke, of the Hamburg-American Line, which haa arrived from Cherbourg, and the Maracas, of the Quebec Steamship Company, which has reached port from Trinidad.

The weather became so bad that Captain Dempwolf concluded to oil the waters, many barrels were poured through the hawser pipes. The passen gers were then treated to an unusual sight that of a ship proceeding in a smooth sea while the waves at a short distance rose far above the decks. Following this blow the weather calmed until the ship was near the American coast, when she ran into a spectacular electrical display, which lasted for hours and brightly illuminated the sea for a great distance around the vessel. The Maracas for 12 hours was In a hur ricane that at times, according to Cap tain Klrkby, blew at the rate of 90 miles an hour. The eeas and wind tore loose the tarpaulin covering her hatches, flood ing her hold and confining the passengers to the cabin. UNIQUE EXPOSITION OPEN Ideal Homes to Be Portrayed in London Show.

PERPETUAL MOTION TOY Frenchman Invents One Which Has Been Going Three Months. PARIS. Oct. 3. (Special.) The annual competition for new toys, organized- by M. Beptne, the Prefect of Police, was opened in Paris on Friday in the Tuiler ies Gardens. The 'inventions" this year are, as usual, amusing and topical. Aero planes are largely represented. One of these, made by M. Debrun, an ex-pro-fesiwr of physics, is a little masterpiece. It is an almost exact reproduction of the Delagrange machine, and has a very small electric motor. Held by an almost invisible steel wire, the aeroplane flies, rises and falls and even changes its di rection. M. Brge has made a toy called the "vapiano," with which he solves the scientific problem of ''perpetual motion." The vapiano is based on the tension of certain bodies produced by humidity. Tha apparatus is composed of a disc with a hole in its center and supported by eight strings around an axle the extremities of which rest on pivots. Underneath there is a basin filled with water. The strings, moistened and drying alternately, cause the apparatus to move "perpetually." One of these toys has been in motion for three months already.

On the first occasion he gave the police a chase throuKh the most populous streets of Brooklyn, threw himself into the water, regained terra firma and disajkoeared. Some time atterwards he was again arrested and was being carried to Lonit lslanj for embarkation to Italy, but somehow managed to evade his captors. The third time he was actually placed on board a homeward-bound steamer, yet he succeeded in freeing himself from his fetters, reaching land and hid ing himself in the docks until he found an opportunity for getting clear away. LONDON FULL OF HUNGRY More Than 2000 Men Apply for One , Job Paying $4.50 a Week. LONDON, Oct. 3. (Special.) The distress In London at the present time 1 defies all description and thousands of families here are actually on the point of starving to death because it Is next to tmpssible to get employment. A sig nificant illustration of conditions here was afforded the other day when one of the hospitals advertised for a porter, who was to receive the magnificent sal ary of $4.50 per week. At 8 In the morning the hospltnl was besieged by a corps of men numbering over 2000. Only young men from 18 to 20 were invited to apply, but others, who had long since passed the required age, had evidently resolved to try their luck. From the great crowd some 300 were paraded for Inspection, and of these about -50 were invited into the hospital, the others departing in despair. Among the destitute are many American citi zens who left the United States when hard times set in, hoping to find work here, and who are now as anxious to return to America again. The Ameri can Consulate is doing its utmost to assist the distressed, but the means at its disposal are far from sufficient. International Diamond Cnlon. THE HAGUE Oct. 3.
