Leaden ef the Buy In. The leaders of the late buying of theae choice hops are Isaac Pincua 4 Pons of Tacoma, E. Clement Horat and Klaber, Wolf A Nefter Co. , The latter firm Is especially active of late accord ing to reports, and In order to get select quality has been forced to pay it higher range of values. Outside of these urgent deliveries which the trade " believes the firm is compelled to make at this time, the members of the Klaber,: Wolf & Net ter organization are very bearish In their views. Principal among the members of the firm i Wurman Klaber. formerly of Tacoma, Mr. Klaber is one of the big growers of Washington who la umisuany Bear ish and who recently gave out discour aging statements to tne growers to in tin. thAm n rtlnw tin their varda. 1 this happens Mr. Klaber will be greatly benefited, as his yards are well taken care. of. . , , Another of the most bearish ones vhn have nf lata been fflvlnc the grow ers all sorts of nice plow-up stories, is K.

Hu Be Scheme to roroe Growers. The bearish activity of these two big firms is believed to be simply a scneme of the leaders to cause the small grow ers to plow up their hops so the big ones can "corner' the market. It Is known that if low prices are continued for awhile many srrowers will be forced tw bo out of business and their yards will be purchased for little or nothing by the leaders. Of late there have been several advertisements in the papera asking for yards to rent.

While there is a difference of opinion regarding whether the cattle market will do better In the nar future aa re gards prices, the trade Is Inclined to ' tne opinion that good rat aleers will find a very liberal clemsnd. 'The bis- run in the cattle market la about over," says 8. P. Uould. Of Hen- son & Ouuld, this morning. "From this time forth we can expect a better class of stock and arrivals will not be so heavy.v Those who were forced to ahiD their cattle on a glutted market, have aireauy aone so, and witnin a snort time we - will llkolv he irwttinir noUi- lng but the flnlHlied stuff.

Arrlv- is nave been decreasing or late and even -now select wethers are easily dis posed of at SHc while ordinary stuff hangs around J'c. The lambs arriving rrom the valley are too big and for this reason no improvement In that line is at present anticipated. Oood Hogs Holding All Klgrht. -"While there Is a much softer tone In ordinary hogs, good quality Is finding a sale. The course of the local hog mar ket for the near future is hard to pre dict. "This is the time of the year when hogs usually sell lower here, but there Is a very good tone In the east snd this may hold any possible decline here In check." Lee M. Lacy, of Hunt & Lacy, says regarding the livestock situation: r'Good hogs are r,till finding a de mand around $7 but poor stuff Is some what neglected at the lower range. "Prime, fat arid heavy steers are mov ing' off freely when reported In the yards and If the stuff is first-class there is no trouble in getting $4.25. It takes something select, however. Personally. I do not believe the cattle market will advance for awhile." J. F. Flint sent in supplies of hogs and calves for the local market. A year ago today all lines were just bdoui steady.

There was little doing In either the cash or future deliveries either on the board of trade or elsewhere. Ex porters continue to purchase dribbling lots of wheat in the interior, but none of them are paying over use ior ciuo and aome are not willing to give that sum. Growers, however, are firm in their views around the higher figure and no sales under 88c have been re norted for the sDot stuff. There was nn chunare in bid or ask values for fu tures on the board of trade today, trade reflecting the -usual Monday aunness. There is a slight weakening of hold ers on October oats, but there was no business passing on the board of trade todav. Bidders were bidding former nuntatlons. Cash barley market Is firmer, with some small business, reported for the day. There waa no onange in values on the board or traae. Millfeeds are still so scarce end high that much complaint Is coming from the dalrvmen. With the prospects or a slight decline In butter prices, owing to the importation of eastern supplies at materially lower values, cream pro ducers are likely to receive a lower figure instead of an advance asked for. According to information received to day a large per cent of the green silo feed whlcrrls usually put up the latter part of September was caught by the recent frost and ruined. With oats selling to feeders at $33 a ton they are indeed in hard luck. Board of trade -prices today: j i CLUB WHEAT.
