New York, Sept. 12.-The lew York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Today's stock market bore much the
same aspect as that of yesterday, that
is to say. the bear traders continued to
play IN the weak spots, pressing them
down two to five points, until the gen
eral list finally gave way at midday
and yielded two to three points. The
early trading was moderate in volume
and prices were irregular with strength
underlying the steel and copper shares,
the latter being in demand for a per-
iod because of the probability of an
early announcement of the government
price for the red metal and also be.
cause of a better outlook in the labor
situation. The increasing price of sill
yer was also a factor. However, the
coppers and steels alike yielded with
the rest of the list at midday in quite
active liquidation. There appeared to
be very little news to account for the
extreme depression, although the Rus
sian situation is still a blanket dampen-

Hogs.
The packers seemed determined to
keep the toboggan well creased under
the hog market. We did not find the
opening market in Portland as strong
comparatively as it has been for pre-
Yious- weeks. The supply is fair and the
demand is good, and in spite Of the
weak opening, the days bargaining
developed a fair market, extending to
$I7.25. Quotations: Prime light, $16.75

Hop pickers by the score,
Wanted at orce to pick the crop,
On the Willamette s shore,
And transportation at fair rates,
Was offered unto me,
For any point from Portland up,

Watchout, catch her,
Jump aboard the boat,
We are the ~jolliest, happiest crowd,
That e'er was afloat.
The music it was lively,
We felt so gay and free,
On our passage up from Portland,

Shere were more got on the boat,
And some one in alarm cried,
Wen never keep afloat.
But after we had started up,
No danger could l see,
On our passage up from Portland,
To E'O'L Lee.
Chorus
When we got to Butteville,
We heard a mournful song,
They do not pay enough down here,
We are going up along.
We landed too at Lincoln,
And more pickers there did see,
On our passage up from Portland,
To E'O'Lee.

We passed the town of Salem
In the open light of day,
We could see the heights of SINNERS

Loom up across the bay.
West Salem too, and Stringtown,
We crowded forth to see,
On our passage up from Portland,
To E'O'Lee.

Sure it is the finest country
That e'er | have been in,
For all you need to start on,
Is a rooster and a hen.
A little patch of berries,
And from care and want you're free.
You can take the boat to any point
From E'O'Lee.
