London Dealerjr Seeking Con
signments of Hops.
HOPE.;TO BREAK MARKET
Expect to Get Enough Supplies in
Oregon in This Manner to Tide
Them, Over New Oranges
Are Arriving.
Trad in the hop market continue alow,
with a rather slack Eastern demand, but
holders are buoyed up by the hope that
export buyers will roon enter the market,
and when they do it will be the signal for
others to get in as well.
Several deals were reported yesterday, including-
the purchase by Catlln & Linn of S3
bales at Grants pass at 23 cents, and the
ale of the Brown lot of 53 bales at Inde
pendence to Julius plncus at the same price.
Mr. ptncus also bought several lots aggre
gating 175 bales at 21 to 23 cents.
California advices were firm and it was re
ported that 24 rents was paid in Sonoma.
From Washington comes the report that
Ijaac Plr.cu & Sons have contracted for
MW bales of ipio Yakima hopa at 16 cents.
Just when the foreljrn buyers will enter
the market is a question, but dealers who
are watching their movements believe the
data is close at hand. In the meantime.
however, the agon's of two of the London
houses are trying to pet consignment In
this state. Yesterday they made offers of
29 cents advance on consignments to large
holder at McMlnnville, but without success.
Their object, probably. 1s to get enough
cheap hop to tide them over for the pre
ent. hoping that when they finally begin
buying th market will have been weak
ened so that they can pick up bargains
The Oregon growers, however, have had
enough experience in consigning hops to
London dealers and are not likely to be
caught by the same trick again.
The closely cleaned-up position of the
New York State prop, is shown by the fol
lowing statistics of unsold hops by counties.

In t he New York auction of Tuesday that
California lemon sold at $1.75 for fancy
nnd that Boston paid from $."..30 to 10.50 for
Interior lemons. I have talked to several
shippers about the present situation and
And that they are not at all excited. They
tl! me that there is no immediate r1!ef in
t;ht and that prices wilt be no lower this
month on account of the light pick here
and the llcht supply in sight from abroad.
The last report from Sicily were to the ef
fr:t tht there were. on hand and available
for shipment within the next 3ft days. 13.000
boxes of ifmons us against 41.000 boxes at
this time lat ycur and 3K.OO0 boxes in 1007.
You will note that the movement from Cali
fornia has been very light. 0 cars from the
1st to the 8th inclusive as against l:t for
that period last season. The main crop both
In this country and Sicily comes in begin
ning about December ftrst. sometimes earlier.
As the lemons are picked green they mut
have time to color before being shipped. The
pickings here are getting heavier with evcy
week and the color is being forced. I should
say that by the first week in December the
price ought to be considerably easier and
In another week or two would have, fallen
oft very extensively."
The grape, market cleaned up well, as
receipts were light. It Is probable there will
be no mor carlot receipts of grapes from
California, owing to the rain In that state.
WHEAT FARMERS ARE BULLISH.
rterline t Sell at Current Offered Price.
Oat and Barley Strong-.
Trade In the wheat market was of small
volume yesterday, not so much for a lack
of demand as because of the firmness of
eller. In the country the feeling Is very
bullish and the offering of present prices to
armors is a waste of time. Quotations at
this end. how ever, are slow to go up.

Thriihle in the California Walnut -irrower'
Assciatfon Is t hus explained by
Wright's Los At.ge'es Citrus News- Letter:
The asso. tat Inn walnut-growers feel that

resent Attres went into the nice tins at Los
Ange'.es. at which pries were made, with
Instructions to get 12c if possible and not
to accept anvthing less than 12c They
were overruled however. an1 a price of
11 4c wa made. The growers who have
remained loyal to the associations have
disposed of all their nuts at this price, less
the per -ent for selling end 14 pvr cent
for cash- The independent grower? sr.d the
association growers, who have seomled have
received 11 and 12o for their nuts without
having to pay the C per cent for Felling.
So many of the association growers wont
over to the independents that It Is now aid
the associations will nut be able to deliver
all the nuts aold. but will pro rata t'.ietr
holdings among the buyers. The independent
shippers are quoting 12 4c with no dis
count jtopr fr cash.

REMAINDER OF LIST DULL
Foreign Lenders Said to Be Offering
Funds at New York Bank
Statement Shows Surplus
Is Conserved.
NEW YORK, Nov. 13. Copper stocks fur
nished the object of a speculative diversion
today in th dullness which held the general
list. The return from abroad of a number
of capitalist credKed with a deciding voice
in negotiations believed to have been under
way for consolidating copper interests was
made the occasion for the demonstration id
that group.
Statements were made that foreign lend
ers were offering funds in New York and
that the great private bankers were ap
plying resources to the protection of the
call-money market. There wa a large now
of gold into the Bank of England, largely
from the Bank of France. Account was
taken of an additional drain already in sigm
on New York bank reserves. Prospects are
that further guid will go out to South
America, besides engagements already made
do not figure in today's bank siatement.
Trade reports were encouraging and re
turn of October gross earnings of railroads
were sufficient to Indicate a high-water
mark for that month.
The fact that no call loans are made at
the stock exchange on Saturday left the
market without an accurate index of the
tone, but a strong demand for time loans
was reported. Loans for &) day were made
at 5 hi per cent and that rate was asked for
80 days.
The appearance of the bank statement
confirmed the confidence of those who had
expected the surplus to be conserved, the
enormous loan contraction reported operat
ing in fact, to add substantially to the
margin of the surplus.
' Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value.
$2,043,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call from lat week.

LOANS ARE CUT DOWN
rXEXPECTED SHOWING MADE
BY NEW YORK BANKS.
Reduction of Deposits Lessens Ke-
serve Requirements and the
Surpluses Increased.
'
NEW YORK, Nov. 13, The Financier will
aay:
It hAd been expected the statement of the
New York Associated Banks for the week
ending November 13 would prove interesting,
hut nothing quite as striking as the changes
actually made had been anticipated.
Current opinion here was that the transfer
of loans from Tondon to New York this
month were heavy and the loan item of the
New York banka would ahow large Increases
In consequence. Contrary to expectation,
however, loans of the Associated Banks have
not been expanded and the current statement
shows a contraction In this item of $o9,602.
400. one of the heaviest decreases on record.
The known movement of money foreshad
owed a decrease in the holdings of specfe
and legal tender and the contraction of
$5,353,500 in cash holdings waa in harmony
with actual bank conditions at the end of the
week. Deposits fell off $46,735,000. This,
of course, reduced reserve requirement nearly
$12,000,000 and the surplus reserve, which
at the end of the previous week was under
$3,000,000, .rows $8,330,250, making the pres
ent surplus $10,826,575.
Just where the loan burden of the banks
had been shifted is uncertain. ' hut it Is evi
dent the outside Institution in this city have
not assumed It, since the loan of the trust
companies rose less than $1,500,000, wbJl
their cash holdings fell off more than $2750.
000. Their . net deposits decreased $6,S77.200.
The rise of call money on Fr1dy to 6 per
cent cannot be said, in the face of a bank
showing like that of Saturday, to Indicate
that thi rate is normal.
The statement of averages of the
Clearing-House banks for the week shows
that the banks hold $6,76J,000 more than
the requirements of the 25 per cent reserve
rule. This is an increase of $1,728,425 in the
proportionate cash reserve as compared with
last week. The statement follows;

Sharp Break at Chicago Due
:' to Weather Conditions.
CLOSE ALMOST AT BOTTOM
Selling Is Persistent and Support Is
at Xo Time Vigorous Pro
vision Market Is Very
Excited.
CHICAGO, Nov. 13. Wintry weather in
th Northwest wa one of the factors re
sponsible, for a sharp break in wheat price
here today. Oata were affected by the slump
fn wheat and closed easy, hut corn closed
firm. Provisions were again excited and
firm and closed S to 50 cent higher than the
final figures of the previous session.
The wheat market was weak all day. owing
to persistent hammering by bears and to a lot
of week-end liquidation. This selling count
ed heavily against the market, as eupport was
at no time vigorous. Newa of the day was
almost exclusively for the bears although
demand for cash wheat at outside markets
was still fairly active. Foreign news was
bearish, the Lives-pool market showing de
clines of ,9'i. owing to' favorable crop
reports from Argentina and Australia.
Weather conditions in this country and Can
ada were such as to inspire -considerable sell
ing. ' a drop in temperature in the Northwest
being considered a forerunner of an Increased
movement of Spring wheat, while wet weather
in the Winter wheat states put the cmp in
good condition to withstand the Winter. The
range on December fc.r the day was between
l.bo and J1.0614. The close was almost
at the bottom, with December at $1.0&!.
The corn market was firm. The market
closed firm, unchanged to &c higher.
Trading in' oats- was of small volume and
the market was inclined to sag because of
tha weakness of wheat. Prices at the close
were unchanged a shade lower.
Provisions were strong. During the flay
January pork sold between $21.55 and f-2.
The market closed almost at the top.
