CROP IS WANTED AT LOW PRiCE NOW OFFERING American Brewers Seemingly Willing to Take Everytlilng In Sight, Pro Tiding No Advance Is Asked f' No ' Interest In Beat. ' . The bulk of tha Oregon hop crop Is now finding a very liberal demand In the ' local market at close to ISo a pound. Sales continue to be made from 10HO a pound upward with the prla clpol call around tne price first men tloned. , -- r ',. s ' : , There is very little Interest shown by the trade at present; for the-few lots of better quality, except by short sell ers and even these are seemingly In different as to the future. Whether this Is a bluff remains to be seen. American brewers are showing an In cllnatlon to take hold of all the cheap quality offered, providing the price Is right. This in Itself indloates . that slocks of hops held by beer makers are not nearly as heavy as had been gen erally anticipated. ' A New York mall advice under date of November 16, says of ths general situation: V 1 Rales. Receipts for week .............. 4,896 Receipts from September 1 2-8,882 Ruceipts same time last year.... 28,781 Exports to Europe for week..... 2,720 Exports, from September 1 ...... .17,174 Exports same time last year 10,845 Imports for weejp ............ , 717 Imports' from fentptamber 1...... 2,943 Imports same time last year,.., 748 'The situation In the Interior markets has not changed materially. Conditions in New York are also very similar. For the class of hops that comprise the bulk of the ramlnlng stock there is very little inquiry and values somewhat un certain, but choice growths are in small supply and held with some confidence, up to 27ft28c. Locally there haa been comparatively little new business. Fur ther important deliveries have been made to brewers on early contracts, and quite a good deal of stock has been shipped to Europe. This has given the appearance of some activity, but the fresh purchase's on either home or for eign account have been limited.

An Importation of $750,000 In gold from London was announced by a trust company today. There was talk on the floor that the U. S. Rubber would declare a 6 per cent dividend at Its next meeting. Canadian General Electric declared an extra dividend of 1 per cent today. Lo'uisville A Nashville earnings for the second week of November were $1, 209,105. an Increase of $82,930.

The lack of demand for Paclflo northwest cargoes abroad Is a dominating weak feature. While no change in prices is shown for the day. few dealers are really in the market at the present time. With Argentina wheat cargoes selling In Liverpool at extremely low prices, the outlook Is far from being a favor able one. Th situation throughout the world baa been erratic and until con ditions are somewhat settled and cargo buyers really find what the market is, little bidding can be expected. Market for oata continues to reflect much atrength locally as well as at other points along ths coast. Prices are holding unchanged at $26 to $26,60 for No. 1 feed. There has been no Improvement In the barley situation.

The driver and companions say they did not see the child, who was standing near the curb, and behind a telephone pole. Am the auto passed the front end of , the street oar, the child stepped from ths curb to the street. The driver forced the auto Into the street oar, thereby missing ths boy with the wheels. The machine Was so close, however, that the rear tia of the mud guard struck the child, knocking him to the "pavement. Ho was carried home, but died in a very few minutes. ' The driver and companions Immedi ately Went to the police station, re ported to Captain of Police Riley and said they would be at the Inquest 11. B. Spauldlng, 849 East Fifty-first street.' was a witness to the accident S.P. The establishment of saw mills on Southern Paclflo branch lines in Orepgm will be greatly encouraged by an an nouncement Issued last night by the of ficials of the railroad company, for It means reduced freight rates. The an nouncement follows; Tn line with the Southern Paclflo company's policy of developing the re sources of Oregon and enlarging, the distributing field for lumber manufac turers, It has been decided to readjust rates on lumber, and as early as pos sible, tariffs will bs amended so. as to apply the same rates from mills located on branch and subsidiary lines as Is now enjoyed by mills on the main line to polnta In California, Nevada, Utah west of Ogden, Arizona and New Mexico, were the main line rates are $6 per ton and over. In other words, the company will apply main line lumber rates from points now subject to addi tion of arbltrarles. This will Include mills on the Paclflo Railway A Navi gation company Corvallis St Eastern Railroad company and the Salem, Falls City & Western railway." COURT HOLDS AGAINST DOCK COMMISSION That the owners of property abutting the waterfront have authority to build wharves from the low-water mark to the harbor line was decided by Circuit Judge Morrow, in sustaining a demurrer to the suit of the state to be made a party to the injunction suits of William Retd and the Paciflo Milling & Elevator company against the dock commission and city. Judge Morrow stated; that he waa not called upon to decide upon title to the land, but that since the wbarfing privil ege had Oeen granted these owners by the legislature and had never been re pealed he saw no reason why owners should be denied the privilege even though they had never utilised it. The privilege was granted many years ago,-and in 14Z4 the leglsiatur granted the title to upiana owners to lands be tween high and low water along the rivers, judge Morrow held that should the position of the state be upheld that the act was against public policy it would destroy title to millions of dol lars' worth .of property and that such a question should not be decided by . a subordinate court but should be carried CUTS LUMBER RATES BRANCHES to the stiim-me -..ir.
