Portland, Or., Oct. 1. The hop market is beginning to show more signs of life. There are not many dealers In the market who are known to have orders, but a few are out looking for purchases. The price be ing offered, however. Is low, gen- I orally around 7 cents. Kluber, Wolf & Netter have done considerable business In the punt two days, securing about 400 bales nt 7 and 7 14 cents. Farmers are Blow sellers at these prices and It Is doubt ful If ninny would let go now, even at an advance. While there is more stir In the market, It cannot be called active in any Bense of the word. It Is ex ceedingly difficult to Interest East ern brewers In new hops, even at the very low prices now offered them. Harry L. Hart, who has returned I ' from an extended Eastern trip, re- ; ports tho Eastern brewery business very quiet. Tho brewers are well , stocked with hops and appear to i tally indifferent when they are ap j preached on the subject of new bus 1 Incss. Mr. Hart believes that lndus j trial conditions In the East and not i prohibition are responsible for the ' falling off In the sales of beer. It Is conceded on all hands thnt if an English demand for Oregon hops should open up, the market would quickly assume a different appear ance. At the moment, however, this lOngllsh demand Is lacking and that there Is no hops for an Immediate revival In trade Is Indicated by the following London cablegram re ceived yesterday by Klnber, Wolf & Netter: "Market stagnant nnd sales diffi cult. Huyors are holding off expect ing lower rate. Market continues In a very depressed state." Wells Bros., of this city, have the distinction of making tho first ship ment of new Oregon hops to the East. The lot comprised 102 hales and was from tho Independence sec tion. Crowding Apples on Market. Producers are crowding the mar ket with apples and for this reason buyers are Inclined to purchase In very small lots In the hope of ob taining lower values In tho near fu ture. Apple organlintlons are hold- lug out for hlith prices on the better! grade of fruit, but sales up to thlsi time have been nominal. The recent sale ni noon river Is understood to be considerably below the flunres nf"'"'r ,"n; K"iy. .um IJU...U per ton; a year ago, so much so that Hie aaso-1 elation Is not Inclined to make ,). price public.

One of the largest local buyers of recent vears staled today that he Intends to hold nloor for a while and see what the market Is going to do, because pres ent prices are far out of line of his understanding. Some fancy (Irnvcnstcln. recently arrived from Hood river, have not been meeting with the favor of pre vious years and no sales hnve thus fur been reported beyond $1.50 and It lakes something select to land a buyer at this (Igure.

Tomatoes are in smaller supply with price firm unchanged for the day. Poultry Market 1st Ih-aiiBltiK. The .poultry market shows a drai ning disposition. A number of re ceivers are still carrying over arrivals from last Friday and Saturday be cause they were unwilling to accept the market on Saturday. Since that time there has been practically no purchases the market seldom open ing until Wednesday morning. Springs are showing the greatest weakness and for these are price Is only a fraction higher than for hens; some buyers not being willing to pay anything additional. Truck Ociienilly Plentiful. In vegetables of all sorts the sup ply Is good, and in some lines abund ant, with prices tending downward. Local lettuce has been plentiful for some time, the head sort selling at 25 to 30 cents a dozen, and hot-house stuff is now beginning to come In freely. This Is quoted at 75 cents to $1 a box. I'rlces were unchanged. Cabbage and cauliflower are coming freely, but the latter crop Is In need of rain, and In the event of con tinued dry weather may prove short. Kastorn Kggs Find Rood Sale. The arrival of a car of eastern eggs yesterday caused some sellers of local stock to weaken in their views, but the general trend of val ues Is showing no change. Late ar rivals of Eastern eggs show good quality and this is inclined to hold In check any further advance In lo cal production. CoJincd Salmon Market StlffiT. While trade is nominal at the mo ment in canned salmon, the market is taking on a firmer tone. The re cent loss of about 10.000 cases of this year's Alaska pack takes that much stock off the market, and mused some of the weaker holders to stiffen their views considerably. Portlnnd Lives )ck Market Portland Union Stockyards, Sept. 30. The livestock market Is In fine shape for sclera quality ari commis sion sellers say thut supplies offered are very light. There Is too much poor stuff coming and it is this qual ity that finds no favor at all with buyers in fact It Is very hard for receivers to dispose of them at pres ent quotations. "The market is good for what Is called good stuff," Bald S. P. Gould, of Benson & Gould, this morning. "Every line Is included In this, the demand being good for everything that has the quality. For best stuff prices are holding right at the top. This is especially true as regards the hog situation. In that market prices are away up In the air, and may even go higher. Much depends upon the Eastern values, for in a sense Portland will follow the quotations ruling there. How ever, almost everything depends up on the class of stork local people ship nere. II it is tirsi class me marsei will stand up and may go higher, but if It is poor they now absolutely re fuse to look at this class of stock." Kollowlug is the general range of values on stork ruling In the yards for lato shipment: Hogs Best east of mountains, $7 lii $7.25; ordinary, $6,756 $7; block ers and China fuls, $6; stockers and feeders, $5.

McDon ald, of Multnomah county, has draft ed a bill which be will introduce at the legislature next winter, having for Its purpose the utter extermina tion of the "coffin tack" in the Beav er state. Even substitutes for cigar ettes will be placed under a ban, and any one caught giving or selling the "makiugs" will be subject to a fine, and If the fine is not paid, theu off to prison he (or she) must go. Con servative statistics show that 500,000 cigarettes are smoked daily in Ore gon. These figures may reach 800, 000, for the 500,000 daily consump tion is based on 40 per cent of the smokers smoking only ten of the "tacks" a day, and any cigarette smoker will confess that ten "cigs" a day Js a niggardly allowance, and should be 20 or 30. Then again, more than 40 per cent of the voters use cigarettes and many who are not voters are heavy customers. The "makings" sold in this state In a week run Into several thousand dol lars, bo the passing of the proposed reform measure of Representative McDonald would cut deeply Into the profits of the tobacconists. The bill, which was prepared by an attorney and sent to Mr. McDonald for his ap proval, follows the Washington law. McDonald, who Is now In Curry coun ty on his vacation, has written that the draft of the measure Is satisfac tory to him, and promises that it will be one of the first bills introduced in the coming session. The bill does not prohibit the smoking of the "cof fin tacks," but It makes the secur ing of the materials difficult, almost impossible, in fact. Says the bill: "It shall be unlawful for any per son, by himself, clerk, servant, em ploye or agent, directly or Indirectly, upon any -pretense or by any device, to manufacture, sell or exchnnge barter, dispose of or give away, oi keep for sale, any cigarettes, or any paper made or prepared for the pur pose of being filled with tobacco for smoking; any person for violation of I the same will be guilty of a misde- meaner, and upon conviction shall I for the first offense pay a fine of not less iiiiiu 9a, nur inure uiuu iuu, and costs of prosecution, and stand committed to Jail until such costs are paid; and for the second and each subsequent offense shall pay upon conviction a fine of not less than $100 uor more than $500, and costs of prosecution, or be Imprisoned In the county jail not less than one month or more than six months; provided, that the provisions hereof shall not apply nor Interfere with the sale or or disposal of by any person in this I state to any person outsldo this state.
