I f . . . ... o .....,, f i ,a n o In r. - . lines this morning was lack of 'Stuff. Commission men had numerous calls for dressed veal and hogs, but nothing in the market, and all. that CQifld be done was to hope for something on the next train or boat. It is expected that be fore evening the situation will be im proved, - , . GOOD TRICES OFFERED Front street Is offering good prices for dressed-vial -ami peffcy fancy- veal bringing 13 ntsand pork 104 very readily, if farmers hnve anything in these lines ta, ship, now seems the time, for it Is expected that the market will be weaker ntxt week, the heavy demand at this tinie being due 'to the great number of - people "Jn the city at tending tne JilkH' convention. POULTRY SELLS READILY There was a big call for poultry this morning and rather few chickens in 6ight. The market cleaned up fiiu- Sat urday evening, leaving very little on band for this morning.

While rluesp Is firm no change in quotations -was noted this morning. EGGS ADVANCE Effort was made this morning to hold egKS at 21 and 25 cents, it is said that there are plenty of rs'ini epics sn tli Held and that these will he disposed of If the Oregon product is quoted hnh enough. There is reason to btliv that the market will be lower next week. BERRIES IX DEMAND There is a pood demand for nil kinds of berries ri'ul valu. s arc holding up vU, rspbrries, lloknrrlA, currant and loganberries selling- at $1.75 and $2.

Posted and Refuse Low Prices Offered. The hop market for 1911 hops has bean quite actlva-danng th paat week. 1 upwards of 600 bales or more having been disposed of, which included the following lots to different buyers: Slo per Brothers, -73 bales, to Wlgans Klch ardson & Co., t7c, Independence; Otto Hansen, 104 bales to Kola Nels Hop Co. (Private terms), Salem; 90 bales (lo cal dealers' stocTtV to Horst Co., 29c, Portland; 80 bales (Forest Grove dealer), H. L. Hart; (private terms); 63 bales, Chester Murphy to McNeff Bros, at 30c. Salem. 1 Sales ot other small lots brines down the unsold stock to around 400 bales, and with several firms trying hard to buy theso unsold lots it is almost cer tain there will be a complete cleanup of 1911'Oregons within the next 10 days. The above sales will hardly bear out the bearish reports that are still wide ly circulated to the effect that spot goods must' find Its level as based on contract hops. - Such arguments ara ab solutely ridiculous and for the reason that lr a brewer needs hops now, it stands to reason he is not forced to buy contracts, but - h certainly would bo forced to buy spots to ki:ep his plant working, and then again It's safe to say hs is not buying apota unless he .is forced to do so and in such cases he Is compelled to pay the price asked. The report that large blocks of 1911 hops wore offered at 25c la absolutely false In every rei-pect. but if the case was nut the other wav around It would he right and that is, offers were made for everything remaining. ine most mat can bo said of such reports Is that they lack sense, truthfulness and one of these. days "the source of supply" will wal up to find out they will" have an awful lot of explaining to do to right them selves before the public, while The Jour nal will continue to print unoiasen re ports and seek tho truth at all times. The contract market continues to he very firm and 21c wns offered in sev eral cases yesterdav and refused, while bids of 20 and 20c have been turned down r eht alone bv holders. What nop have been sold during tho past week or so at 20c or less have been "reported ones, not bona fide by any meana it is a matter or recora mai ouyerti have taken over the very small yards and anion ir them those rated "undesir able." They were glad to get hold of anything In the way of contracts a.'.d aro still hoiinding growers, of fdiing 20c and 21c. Under tbesn circumstances it goes without saving that the contract market I is anvthlnc: but dull.

Such arguments do not hold water Famous Warship Admired by Throngs; Vandalism Re ported on Ship. While an enormous crowd of people visited tho battleship Oregon, lying at anchor in the harbor yesterday after noon, tli o attendance was comparative ly small this morning, probably owing to the fact that but few people knew that the historic old fighter was to be open to the public In the morning dur ing her stay here. Customs Inspectors figures for the numoer oi people who wvni nuuniu nat"ef!nlP lM morning were juu in round numbers. Tha hours fixed for 5 ! morning visits to the war vessel are Sslfrom 9:30 to 11:30, but no one will 29 j v,n nnnu.-od to land on the float or so aboard after 11 o clock, in order Tor the officers of the Oregon to have time to clear the decks by 11:30. For the same reason visitors will be allowed to go " aboard In "' fK'"irfeYn6on'''"oRTyr"'bi' twee 11 the hours of 1:30 and 4:30, that the decks may be cleared of the crowd by 5 o'clock. It Is estimated that over 5000 persons yesterday toolt advantage of tho oppor tunity to visit the fighting machine which bears the nama of this state, and which maJe. the run, now famous In his tory, around the Horn to participate in the" battle of Santiago in 1S93. nld and young, they crowded the decks of the battleship and It Ib safo to lay that not a nook or cranny of the big ship was overlooked by the eager throngs who plied officers and cmw with innumerable questions. The crowds of people were handled over two gangways, ona being for those arriving and another for those who were leaving the ship. The float placed alongside the port gangway of tho Oregon was filled from the time the first launch was al lowed to land at 1:30 and continued so until all were required to leave at 5 o'clock. Tire launches and other small craft reaped a harvest and there was a continuous stream of them from ship to shore all afternoon. Unfortunately some of the people who visited the battleship went with the de sire to leave with a souvenir of some kind and as a result many small parts of guns, machinery and other thlng3 order disappeared so that It was necessary for the officers of the Oregon to give orders that a strict watch be kept to prevent the vandalism. Courtesies shown by officer and crew to vlaitor were conspicuous and every effort was made to explain part of the ship both on the topside and below the decks.

OREGON SEATTLE IS OUT TO 1 Potlatch Men Not Fighting San Francisco Just for Ad vertisement; 1913 Conven tion Is Good for Several. The only thing the only possible thing that could have don It drowned the buzz of political conversationalists of Hello Bills at the Elks' grand lodge headquarters at tha Multnomah hotel today. There were several hundred of them talking most ' ait ilay, and last night, boosting some candidate for of fice, rapping rivals, shouting tor some prospective convention city, or euloglz lag their own town. Tho only possible thing was the ad ministration band, made up of about 25 leather-lunged musicians who marched into the hotel lobby, lour abreast and playing loudly, to the front of various incoming lodge delegations, which trailed along in the rear. 4 But the oand was on the job only a few times and as a result the poll ticlans had by far the bettef of It. Seattl Out to Win. Seattle today definitely set at rest all speculation as to why tha Potlatch men announced their intention of cap turing the 1S15 convention. They de care they are not opposing San Fran Cisco lor tho convention, merely for the advertising auch a btep might yield. Judge Hickman Moore, formerly mayor of Seattle stated flatly that Seattle really was In the race and that 400 more Elks would soon reinforce the Seattle contingent to Impress on the grand lodge this fact. The Seattle delegation has opened headquarters in the Multnomah In fur therance of their campaign. "Seattle la certainly out for the 1815 convention. We served notice some time ago that we would be in the field. despite San Francisco," said Judge Moore. "I do not believe tha grand lodge In 1914 will do the unprecedented thing and choose an exposition city for the 1915 convention. We are going to win." "Fudge," broke In a Californlan stand ing nearby. "Just you wait until the San Franciscans get here and Seattle can look for a real enjoyable time." General Gordon, head of tho Atlanta delegation called a meeting of the At- lantans this afternoon to consider whether Atlanta would go into the field against Rochester for the 1913 conven t'on or keep up Its campaign for the 1914 reunion the fiftieth anniversary of the birth of the order. It was gen erally believed that Atlanta would keep up its present fight. Three delegates from Louisville. Ky., arrived today and Immediately informed Robert Frown, chief Justice of tho grand forum, past grand exalted ruler and a resident of Louisville as well, that Louisville could be counted on making a fight for the 1914 reunion against At lanta, Baltimore and Cincinnati. The Louisville lodge has $50,000 pledged al ready toward a fund to entertain the grand lodge, and declare that the con ventlon Is thwirs, the moment the lnvl tation is extended.

They are glad he will be chosen unanimously and sorry they spent so much on useless campaigning. BRIDGE OF GODS TO BE PRESENTED TONIGHT The first of the last two perform ances of "The Bridge of the Gods," which la being reproduced specially for the Elks' convention, will be given to night on Multnomah Field, the sec ond performance being set for Wednes day. A stage setting that has cost $25,000, set off by hundreds of performers, con tributes to making "The Bridge of the Gods" one of the great successes of the convention. Amone the -most notable of the scenes will be the eruption of Mt. Hood as a volcano, and the consequent de struction of the great stone arch whlci- inuians aeciare once eireicnea across the Columbia "the bridge of the gods." The death of Chief Multnomah, fol lowed by the impressive ceremony that is reminiscent of the Norse the placing of his body in the flaming death canoo which passes over the waters, is one of the most picturesque features of the performance.
