None waa good enough to slilp to nearby points and Front street therefore handled only .,4 a sparing aniuu.ii. ' , ' ; , . According to producers, moat of the strawberrlea left on the planta are al ready beginning to rot, therefore the aiiuauoti ik extremely critical. There have been only a nominal amount of ilarKa or WUHona available in the mar keta recently, but the demand for these varietlea la very heavy. Most of tint stock came forward in extremely poor snaps toduy. witn growers selling on the market at 76c to 86o for best offer ings. It la now estimated that fully half of thla year's strawberry enm In the Willamette valley rotted, which means that the marketable output waa not nearly aa heavy aa a year ago, although there was every Indication earlier In the season that the output would be nearly double that of a year ago.

The only draw back haa beer, the recent libera selling In the country at extremely low figures. Aa long as eastern milling Interests can secure ail the fleece, they need at extremely 'low values, they are not likely to force their bids higher. Their immediate needs are being taken care of by the feeding of Pacific northwest sheep men, therefore they continue , to hold down the price lid here. The Boston representative of The Journal sends the following message re- garaing tne situation there: -Boston, Mass., June 21.

HOP TRADE IS STRONGER Efforts to secure contracts on the coming crop of hops at 16c a pound are not productive of much good, because growers are not willing sellers at this time.

Stock market wss severely depressed on heavy liqui dation for both foreign and domestic ac counts. Induced in great part by the un easiness on the other side over the prob able outcome of the July settlements, preparations for which are now in prog ress, and by the announcement that the Interstate Commerce Commission would not grant a reopening of the advance rate cases, but would Inaugurate a new hearing under the auNplces of Its own experts. In addition to the foregoing there waa a disposition to regard the latest turn in the developments In currency and banking legislation as somewhat un favorable In the sense that the appoint ment by the president of six directors of the proposed federal reserve board would serve to Inject politics Into bank ing to a degree that would tend to aggravate financial operations. Heavy selling took place In Union Pacific on feara that the forthcoming decision ln connection with the dissolution matter will be unfavorable.
