NEW YORK. Sejt. 25-(P)-Stocks
toppled today as the
French financial crisis seemed to
presage imminent devaluation of
the franc or establishment of a
gold embargo.
Losse3 among leaders ranged
from fractions to 2 points gen
erally, with a few declines much
wider. Some shares managed to
weather the storm with moderate
gains. .
The reversal came in the face of
highly cheerful domestic business
and Industrial developments.
Industrials and rails bore the
brunt of selling, although utilities
were not far behind. Recently
strong specialties were among the
first to go overboard.
Unload Comes Fast
Somewhat surprisingly, the list
exhibited a moderately upward
tilt at the start. The unloading
started in the second hour when
offerings came eo fast the ticker
tape fell about 3 minutes behind
floor transactions.
A mild recovery movement get
cnder way later in the session.
But the volume dwindled apprec
iably and only a handful of losers
were able to finish above their
lows of the day.
The Associated Press average of
0 stocks suffered a net loss of 1.3
points at 67.1, the largest dip
since August 21, last. Transfers
totalled 1,513,930 shares against
1,193,840 yesterday.
Down 1 to 2 or so were U. S.

Hop Markets
Still Advance
4-Year Contract on 1 500
Bales Written but
Price Secret
Pacific coast bop markets eon
tinued to advance during the week
ended September 23. reflecting an
improved demand from domestic
interests, according to tbe weekly
bop market review of tbe United
States bureau of agricultural ec
onomics. Prices in the principal
producing areas of tbe three coast
states were 1 cent to 2 cents
higher compared with a week ago
reaching new high points for the
season to date. Trading was act
ive in California and Oregon mar
kets at the higher values, with the
comparatively light supplies of
1936 hops reflected in additional
interest being shown in 1935 and
1934 growths.
Oregon markets were very firm
during-the period and 1936 crop
hops advanced around 2 cents
per pound tb growers, compared
with the previous weeli. Trading
was active with sales by growers
including 906 bales of 1936 crop
Clusters, of which 456 bales net
ted 42 cents to 43 cents, with
150 bales bringing 4 4 cents,
and 300 bales at 45 cents per
pound. 128 bales of 1935 crop
Clusters were sold at 30 cents per
pound, net growers. 250 bales of
1934 crop Clusters brought 20
cents and 175 bales of the same
year sold at 20 cents per pound
The market for the week was
featured by the reported writing
of a four-year term contract cov
ering 1,500 bales, for the years
1936-37-38-39. The prices how
ever, on this deal were not yet
available. All of the above sales
were reported for domestic in
terests, with foreign demand gen
erally lacking.
Fuggle Bring 42
Washington markets were also
reported firm and higher. No re
ports were received covering sales
during the week in the Takima
valley, but 113 bales of choice
1936 crop Fuggles brought 42'
cents" per pound, in the Puyallup
valley of western Washington.
California hop markets contin
ued their upward trend during the
week, with the relatively light re
maining supplies of 1936 hops
meeting improved demand. Prices
advanced lc-2c per pound to a
new high point for the season.
Trading wag active with 860 bales
of 1936 hops sold by growers in
price range of 43c-46c per
pound. These sales included 140
bales In Mendocino county at 46c,
200 bales in Sonoma county at 45c
375 bales in the Sacramento val
ley at 4 5c and an early period
sale of 140 bales at 43c in the lat
ter section. At the close of the
week, coastal county growers were
receiving bids of 4 6c per pound,
but were generally asking around
50 cents. 5
The small remaining supplies of
1935 hops were firmly held with
sales confined to 166 bales which
netted Sonoma county growers
32c per pound. Somewhat great
er interest was shown in securing

of older growths and the general
market tone was somewhat firm

1935 and 1936 hops.
New ' York Mart Firm .
i The New Tork hop market con-
tinned to hold very firm in sym
pathy with the Pacific coast and
prices on offerings from first
hands have advanced another cent
per ponnd for both old and new
hops. Local brewers are buying
ahead quite freely although cool
er weather and a lighter output of
ineir proauct is restricting tneir
business. Beer consumption dur
ing August amounted to 5,928,390
barrels compared with 6,401,262
barrels a year ko. Imported hops
continued . slowbut prices were
well maintained at former levels,
due to firmness in European mar
kets. Ou Sept. 23, domestic 1936
crop hops were quoted to the trade
at New York at 61c-54c, for prime
to choice, 39c-41c for 1935 crop
prime to choice, 36c-38c for med
ium to prime, and 26c-29c nom
inal for 1934 crop. Imported hops,

Child Is Saved
After Overcome
- By Fumes of Gas
SCIO, Sept. 25. The 5-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Stuart
of Sanderson's bridge, nine miles
southwest of Scio, was found un
conscious in the seat of a car at
the farm home Wednesday. In
vestigation revealed that the child
had taken the cushion from the
seat and had also removed the
cap from the gas tank beneath the
seat.
The boy peered too long into the
tank and was overcome by fumes
from the gas. First aid methods
were applied with the result that
the boy regained consciousness at
times, and was hurried to the of
fice of Dr. A. G. Prill here. Med
ical aid saved the child's death,
in the opinion ot Dr. Prill, who
has practiced in this county for
more than 40 years. It was the
first case of the. kind he had ever
contacted, he stated. - i

Wheat Prices

Exchange Rate Uneasiness
Tumbles ; Values to
1 2 Loss -
CHICAGO, Sept. 2 5. -(-Severe
: unsettlement of European
exchange rates did much to tum
ble wheat values down 2 cents
a bushel maximum today.
Collapsing of the wheat mar
ket accompanied heavy selling
both of commission house hold
ings and of grain futures owned
by a number of the larger pro
fessional traders. Overshadowing
all other factors were indica
tions 4 of a major financial crisis
in France.
Rallies at the last in Chicago
wheat prices, were only fraction
al, notwithstanding that earlier
the Winnipeg market had climb
ed to' new high levels for the sea
son, and that today's export pur
chases of Canadian : wheat were
estimated at 1,500,000 bushels.
Closes 2 Cents Under
Wheat here closed nervous,
l-2 cents under, yesterday's
finish, ' September $1.17 4 - ,
December .$1.15 - , May

cember 42, land rye showing
M to 1 cent setback, December
82. Provisions results were un
changed to 7 cents lower.
September corn was in anxious
demand from traders, who wereJ
short, and who have only tomor
row in which to settle their ac
counts except i by- actual ware
house or track delivery." Other
wise corn, oats, and rye took
their cue mainly from wheat
weakness.
Provisions averaged lower with
grains.

Said Way Down

morrow:
"Demand for wool has slack
ened appreciably' While the mills

the basis ruling a week ago.

been no special activity in the
staple this week."
The Bulletin will publish the
following quotations:
California: Northern. 83-85;
