THE SUNDAY OREGOMAX, rORTLAXD. NOVEMI5ER 10,-1010. 23 CHECK IS GIVEN TO !E over that of the dull weeks just past. blocks, while nowhere dangerously low, have evidently diminished materially, and buyers have come into the market to fill actual needs. It seems likely, therefore, that a. period of some weeks of consider able activity may be expected. When Buying Stops Growers Offer for Less. Storms Damun Argentine Crops. Crops In Argentina are in danger, ac cording to a cable from Broomhall, which says: A cable Just received from our agent at Buenos Ay res says that torrential rains are now falling over a large part of the country. In the north this is damag ing the growing crops, which are about ready for the reaper. A port strike is now pending and railway transportation is be coming very difficult," RAILS SUSTAIN MARKET STOCK TRADING SLOWER AND PRICES IRREGULAR. 1-MAN MARKET ON COAST Futures Are in Better Position Than Spots With English Buyers Steadily Bidding Higher. Apple Market Steady. The apple market wa steady-but auiet. Spitzenbergs were quoted at a range of L'.50-3, Jonathans at S1.75a.75, North ern Spy at Kings, fancy at $2.50, and cooking apples at $1.25lt50. . car of Arizona seedless grapefruit is due Thursday. They will sell at S4.75SS box. The advance ceased for the in the price of hops has time bemaj and some of the growers are offering their crops at tower prices than they asked a week ago. It was largely a one-man market here and In California, and when the single large buyer stepped out. operations in spots practically came to a stop. As against sales at 86 to 87 cents a few days ago, hops can now be bought on the market at 82 to 83 cents. There seems to be no occasion for alarm, however, as the remaining supply Is exceeding small and the few growers who held and cannot sell now may realize more for their hops be fore the next crop comes than has been paid any time yet during this remarkable year. Only about 400 bales of the 1918 crop are left in growers' hands in Oregon, and dealers' holdings are very small. Cali fornia has been cleaned out of its best hops, only one crop remaining unsold in the Sonoma section. While spots have weakened a trifle, con tracts have gained in strength, though not much business in futures is being worked. The prices offered by most deal ers for three year contracts are 43, 40 and 35 cents, with one buyer bidding 50, 40 and 30 cents, which averages the same. In California a few two-year term con- trnrt have been written with the 1920 crop eliminated. WEATHER FAVORS POTATO DIGGING Supplies on Local Market Are Liberal and Values Steady. Potato digging has been more extensive during the past few days of favorable weather and supplies on the local market have become liberal. Seven cars of Ore- cons were received, also four cars of Washingtons, of which two were diverted. The demand was good and the market steadv.

Bond Values Are Generally Firm. "Weekly Bank Statement Is Disappointing to Traders. NEW YORK. Nor. 15. The final ses sion of the stock market was character ized by dullness and general price irreg ularity. Adverse labor developments early in the day, as Indicated by the course of the coal conterence, and another break in foreign exchange prompted further selling. Kails sustained the market, so far as it showed any recuperative power, but even those issues dropped when the demand ceased. Tne few noteworthy rallies in cluded General Motors, which made up almost all of its 6-point decline, and Mexican Petroleum, which reversed Its 5 point loss with a fractional net gain. Sales amounted to 500, 0U0 -shares. The bank statement was disappointing In the sense that the actual loan contrac tion of about $66,000,000 was accompanied by a decrease of almost $50,000,000 in actual reserves. At the same time clear ing house banks decreased their reserves in the local federal reserve bank by slightly over $50,000,000. Bonds were firm, further gains being made oy issues of the secondary railroads and international flotations, but the lib erty group was again inclined to ease. Total sales, par value, aggregated 17,-550,000. do 2d 414s 93.0S N P 4s do 3d 4i8 l4.0i N P 3s do 4ih 4s...3.1l;pac T A T 5s.

Senate Confirmation of Appoint ment Early This Week No Opposition Develops. WASHINGTON. Nov. 15. Lester E. Humphreys of Portland, Or., was nom inated today by President Wilson to be United States attorney for the dis trict of Oregon in the place of United States Attorney Haney, resigned. Thre has never been any ques tlon that Lester W. Humphreys would be named to succeed Bert E. Haney, who tendered his resignation some time bko as United States attorney. The appointment has been held up be cause of the absence of an executive session of the senate to confirm Pres ident Wilson's nomination. Belief was expressed yesterday in Portland that the president's nomina tion would be confirmed early this week and that Mr. Humphreys would take the oath of office during the fore part of the week. Then is no opposi tion to his appointment by the Oregon senatorial delegation. P.arnett (roldstein was appointed United States attorney last week by Federal Judges Bean and Wolverton to serve until Mr. Humphreys' ap pointment should be confirmed. Mr. Uoldsiein is expected to remain in the office under the new appointee. cational and welfare work in Brazil for many years. WOMAN DROPS TO DEATH! Attendants Witness Fall From Fourth tory Window.

The stock mar ket this vrek sulfered one of the heaviest reversals and liquidating movements since the close oi the war. -Technically, how ever, the situation is improved, because It 1h realized that tightening of credit fa cilities and resultant reduction of bank loans will tend to check speculative ex cesses. The eiiect will be felt in all im portant trading centers throughout the country, it is held. Aluch of the money now employed In the stock market repre sents actual purchases of securities for the strong boxes ol investors. The strength of transportation shares is regarded by conservative interests as one ot the most favorable aspects of the situation. Accumulation of these issues was taken to be a direct reflection of congressional legislation in process of com pletion. During the week speculative stocks broke 10 to SO points. Loses in several con spicuous instances were far greater. Call money rose to 30 per cent, a record top figure since the panic of l'J07, and the money market- was swept clean of time funds. Figuring at the lowest quotations of the week's trading, most of the sub stantial advance accumulated In the bull movements of September and October were wiped out. Taper profits of millions ot dollars evaporated. An aggressive short interest assisted the drop. Seeking the most vulnerable points. Pools and professional were hit hard. The buying of rails, especially seasoned shares, did much to bring partial readjustment. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.
