The final estimate of the wheat crop ot In
fnr the season of 1901-2 has Just been given
... tur, statistical department of the Gov.
ernment of India, The yield Is estimated at
6.008.9S2 fens 'of 2240. pounds, being 450.g0
m less than the previous year and about
600.000 tons less than the average for the pre
oortinp 10 vears. The estimated area is given
at 23.300.000 acre, or 300,000 acres more than
the previous year, and 2.000.000 acres less than
.1 rnr iho nrfcpdlntr 10 years. The
rhi or what we call the "Winter crop."
is -nlanted in India in October and November,
ccts its start from the moisture held in' the
soil from the monsoon, and is nourished either
by irrigation or tho Winter rains. It is gen
crallv harvested in the month of February.
and is superior in acreage, yield and quality
to the Summer wheat crop, called kharlf.
which is sown in the month of June or Just
before tho monsoon rains,
The season under consideration was on the
whole unfavorable for the growth of wheat.
and in Western and Central India conditions
were disastrous." The monsoon of 1001 termi
nated early, and the Winter rains were an
almost complete failure, except in tho United
Provinces, where there was some rain, and
the crop, aided by liberal irrigation; was bet
ter than the average. In the Punjab and the
northwest frontier province, whence so much
of the wheat exported from India Is drawn, a
poor harvest has been gathered. In Bengal,
also, the drought was injurious; In the Cen
tral Provinces the yield is belter than in re
cent years, but the harvests are limited in
comparison with the results before seasons
of drought and scarcity set In. The failure Is
very great in Bombay, Berar, the Nizam's ter
ritory. and Rajputana, where the injury done
by the drought was completed by the depre
dations of rats ana insects,
The wheat yield of India in 1900-1 was 6,765.
717 tons, and in the preceding year 6,523,023
tons
The following figures give the exportation of
wheat from India for the past seven years:
Tons.
1803-00 600.146
1S00-07 i i 05,028
1897-9S 118,630

1699- 1900 485.204
1800-01 2,601
1001-02 366.091
It will be noted that In one year only does
the trade approximate 1,000,000 -tons. It is
doubtful whether the exports of this year'
wheat will exceed the restricted trade ot last
year.
According to the Modern Miller's report, crop
prospects are as follows: The weather con
ditlons continue to Interfere to some extent
with the seeding of Winter wheat. In some
sections the soil is too dry and in others too
wet, but the work is progressing, and there
Is ample time to get the next crop In the
ground. The deliveries ot wheat by farmers
are small, as there is a disposition to bold
the stacked wheat."
The Department of Agriculture of the North
west Territories Asslnibola, Saskatchewan and
Alberta has Issued its first official bulletin of

wheat for 1902. Tho -summary, with compari

FLOUR Flour prices have been maintained
In the past week, best grades being quoted
. at ?3 05 to $3 60 per barrel. But little is
coming in from the interior. The Oriental de
mand has not opened up fully yet, but may
be expected to soon. Various causes have op
erated to restrict the inquiry from Asiatic
markets drought, plague, cholera and other
epidemics but telegraphic reports indicate that
the situation is Improving, and the purchasing
classes will soon be in better condition to draw
on Pacific Coast markets for supplies. In this
sonnection it may be mentioned that two mod
ern flouring mills with American machinery
have recently been constructed at Harbin,
Manchuria, one with a capacity of 250 barrels
nd the other of 600 barrels a day. They are
operated by Russian millers, and 'e product
Is said to be very satisfactory. The buildings
are covered with American iron roofing. The
flour from these mills is going Into the; mar
kets ot Manchuria in competition with flour
" from- the United States.
Broomhall's Com Trade News, of date of
August 10, says of the foreign "markets:
Notwithstanding the late reduction In the
millers' limit for their bakers' grade flour, con
sumers have not thought fit to come into the
market at anything like an encouraging rate.
and as the reduction alluded to was by some
considered ill-advised, Liverpool millers have
today put their limit back to its previous level
by establishing a rise ot Gd per sack. There
has been an entire absence of speculative buy
ing, and the business transacted on the spot
has continued to mark the unsatisfactory rut
In which the trade has moved so long, and
which now for some time past has constituted
Its most notable feature. It was thought, and
not unreasonably so, that with small available
stocks in the hands of Importers, and also in
view of the very small provision which con
sumers have made for themselves in the past.
that a better demand would have been experi
enced for the milled article, but such ex
pectations were entirely dispelled by the re
cent' collapse of wheat prices in the States,
since when there has been no confidence on
this side of the Atlantic, and holders of for
eign flour, while not pressing their holdings,
were' obliged to make certain concessions in
order to effect a trade.
Pacific Coast flour Is not offered for ship
ment, and parcels of this quality on the spot
move very slowly at about late rates, but bona
fide purchasers of lines would, no doubt, have
little difficulty in obtaining concessions. The
trade in French flour is very small. .Shippers
offer top brands at 22s delivered here, but
this Is about Is too high, and keeps the article-,
from competing successfully with Amer
ican brands. Offers of Hungarian are put
more liberally upon the market, but most of
these are for September-December shipment.
There Is also a fair quantity offering for August
shipment at a premium ot Is per sack over the
former position, but buyers are not anxious to
take hold.
OATS AND BARLEY There has been only
a limited trade in data during the period under
review, and no shipping demand to speak of.
Receipts at this point have fallen off consid
erably. Prices offered by dealer of late have
been so low that growers' hesitate to market
their stocks; while- holding back for better
prices, no reasonable offer Is refused. Tester
day best -white oats were quoted at $1 per
hundred and gray 6 cents less. The demand
for barley for export purposes holds Its own.
and thus the competition holds prices steady.
HOPS This Is the critical time in the hop
market, in so far as prices are concerned. It
Is the period at which It is almost Impossible
to make a quotation. New hops have not be
gun to arrive in quantity sufficient to make a
market, and contracting Is a thing of the past.
The best and. in fact, the only thing that
can be said of the market Is that prices are
nominal, say at 20 to 22 cents. There are no
buyers, brewers or others. In the market.
Picking throughout the Valley is under fair
headway, and by the close ot the week the
work will be general. The crop gives every in
dlcatlon of being the finest In quality pro
duced In Oregon in 10 years, if th present
favorable weather holds out, as it gives every
promise of doing. Even should some rain
come, the effect need not be serious, as the
yards are practically free from vermin.
Of tho situation in New York, the Journal
of Commerce of September, 6 says:
The only new feature was the receipt of
cable advices from Germany reporting a dull
and sagging market. London cable advices
also reported a quiet market, and gave an es
timate of 300.000 hundredweight as the prob
able yield of the growing English crop. The
advices received from the state reported no
changes in the crop outlook, the yield com
ing down below general expectations. Lice In
some sections, it was stated, were beginning
to decrease. Coast advices report firm markets;
crop prpspects continued favorable. The local
market was unchanged. Demand continued
light, brewers generally being disposed to hold
off and await developments, and there was no
trading in consequence among dealers. Old
olds were in fair demand and firm.
The 'Cooperstown Otsego Republican of Sep-
tembr 3 says: "Hoppicking is now In full
blast, but it will be a short Job. In every
case that we have heard of the hops are turn
ing out much lighter than expected. It Is
probable that the crop will be less than a
quarter qf last year."
The Cooperstown Freeman's Journal of Sep
tember 4 says that the hop crop Is turalnar out
less tjian was estimated a month ago; will be
from one-fourth to one-third that of last year,
and the quality, as a rule. Is rather poor.
WOOL There is but little to report in wool
locally. The market is decidedly qulet and
prices are without change, Valley "being"quoted
at .12 to 15 cents, and Eastern Oregon at
8 to 14 cents. A little more Interest has
been shown in Oregon wools in tho Eastern
market. The American Wool and Cotton Re
porter, of September1 4, reports:
Clothing Oregon has sold at 4S-50c. clean,
or at 14316c In the grease, accordlmr to
shrinkage. For a heavy shrinkage wool, 14c is
a fair price, if no staple. We note one sale
of 15,000 pounds of strictly clothing Oregon,
old wool, grading fine and fine medium, at
about 60c Staple wools have sold as high
as 18c, to cost 5263c clean. In Valley wools
there has been practically nothing doing.
The Reporter quotes Oregon wool In the
Boston market as follows: "Eastern staple, 16
18c; Eastern Oregon choice clothing, 14015c;
Eastern Oregon, average, i314c: Eastern
Oregon, heavy, ll12c; Valley Oregon No. 1,
1020c; Valley Oregon No. 2, 1920c; Valley
Oregon No. 3, lS19c; Valley Oregon lambs,
1617c"
FRUIT The season for the dealers in fresh
fruit Is at its height. The produce district
on Front street is crowded from morning until
night, and working overtime is an every-day
experience. Prices vary somewhat, but In the
main are well held up. Yesterday's receipts
were unusually heavy, especially of apples,
melons, pears and peaches. Arrivals Included
one car of bananas, three cars of watermelons
and one car ot peaches. All the produce that
came in was taken care of. Secretary Lam-
berson. of the State Baord of Horticulture,
places the total value of this year's fruit crop
in Oregon at not over $2,000,000, against a
product last year of $2,375,000. Last year the
state produced about 22,000,000 pounds of
prunes, whereas this year he thinks the crop
will yield between 12.000.000 and 15,000,000
pounds. Pears are a light crop all 4over the
state. In the southern districts the yield will
be 6 per cent of normal, and In the Valley
25 per cent.
POULTRY. EGGS. ETC. Chickens are sell
ing better than they were" a week ago, and
the market is. in better shape. Last week it
was badly overstocked. The large market men
who have cold-storage facilities bought heavily,
and the result was apparent with the opening
of the present week, whenJyrlces stiffened up
materially. Enough eggs are coming In to
meet all requirements, but not enough to lower
quotations. Fancy creamery butter is very
scarce, and correspondingly firm In price.
Other grades are taken up as fast as received,
More butter is going from Portland into the
country this Summer than ever before, the
opening of the hoppicking season creating quite
a demand for It.
MERCHANDISE Practically no change can
be recorded in staple grocery prices. A good
trade, both locally and with the country. Is re
ported. Eastern sugar markets developed con
siderable strength during the past week. The
bulk of sugar received came principally from
Cuba and went direct to refiners, they having
purchased extensively of Cuban sugar early
last month. The free movement of Cuban
sugar, however. Is about over. Stocks of the
island have been reduced to 183,000 tons, and
exports last week dropped to 19.800 tons, com
paring with 37,300 tons for the previous week.
With the supply ot Cuban sugar rapidly ap
proaching a point of exhaustion, refiners will
have to turn their attention elsewhere. Java
sugars. In a measure, will supply their re
quirements, there being at present 225.000 tons
afloat for the United States from Java, and
this sugar should begin to be avallablo during
tho current month. Although refiners are m
derstood to be fairly well supplied with raw
sugar for both their current and near-by future
wants, they were. ready buyers on the b&sm
ot 3 7-1 0c for centrifugals 06 degrees, which
shows an advance of only c from the lowest
prices touched, apparently being of the opinion
that It was not only good business policy
amply to supply themselves with raw sugars to
rhest the heavy demand now being experienced
for refined sugar, and which Is expected to
continue throughout the month, but also &
good Investment to purchase sugar at Its pres
ent low cost.
TJie fruit crop this season. It Is generally un
derstood, was an unusually large one, and it
is therefore expected that the demand for
sugar will be proportionately heavy. The fcolnt
also is made that In many sections of the
country the crops are late, and that therefore
the active' demand for sugar will be carried
later Into the Fall season than usual.
MEAT AND PROVISIONS During the
past week the meat and provision merchants
have enjoyed something of a boom in trade.
Receipts of beef and veal have been large.
and prices very satisfactorily maintained. Very
few hogs have come In that have been saleable,
but It Is expected that after harvest they will
begin to move better. A slight decline tn lard
prices is noted; otherwise quotations have un
dergone no change, since the last weekly re
port. PORTLAND MARKETS.

news was encouraging, and early advices told
of a truce between the Pennsylvania and Gould

advanced oyer a point each,
and -the Gould stocks also gained.
In the same move. Improvement was shown
by St, Paul, Louisville & Nashville. Rock Isl

of fhi xtfvai and Iron trade.
In the miscellaneous list, the shares of the

WASHINGTON. Sept. 10. The monthly re
port of the statistician of the Department of
Agriculture shows tho average condition of
corh on September 1 to have been 84.3, as
compared with 86.5 on August 1. 1002; 51..
.nirmhur 1. 1001. 80. o at tne corresponu-
mr Ant in 1000. and a 10-year average of 78.8.
The average condition, harvest of Winter
and Serine wheat combined, was 80, agnlnst
82.8 last year, 69.6 In 1000, and a 10-year aver
age of 78.0. Pennsylvania ana, aiuornia re
nnr n mints below the 10-year, average. Iowa
12 points below, and Kansas a condition of
49.23 points below tne lu-year average ui mo
state. t .
Th avBrmro condition of oats when har-
ti-ns ft7.2 against 72.1 last year. 82.0
In 1000 and a 10-ycar average of 79.7. While
correspondents report the harvesting of an ex
ceptlonally large crop of oats, there are Indi
cations that the crop will be very deficient In
nolnt of duality.
The acreage of clover seed had been con
siderably reduced since last year, only two of
the principal states Maryland and Ohio re
porting even a small Increase. The other Im
portant states, except Kansas, In which state
tv,. .rn in th name as last year, report de
creases. In California. Utah and Colorado
conditions are below their 10-year averages,
while all other states, except Maryland, in
which state the condition Is the same as the
10-year average, report conditions above such
averages.
During August the condition of hops declined
1 nolnt in Oregon and 8 points in New lone,
and improved 2 points In California, while the
condition In Washington remained unchanged
during the month.
Of the states having 4.000.000 trees and up
wards of apples, 11 report an improvement in
condition during August. All but six of the
Important apple-growing states report condl
tlons ranging from 7 to 42 points above their
10-year averages. Reports as to the produc
tlon of peaches, as compared with a full crop
in the Important peachgrowlng states, range
from 10 per cent in Illinois to 00 in Oklahoma.
In all but eight of the states having 2,000,000
trees and upwards In 1890, a production ex
ceeding the 10-year average Is probable. In
all the states in which the production of
grapes is of more than local Importance, the
condition Is equal to or above the 10-year
Efveroge.

THE RANGE WAS NARROW
SCARCITY A STEADYING FACTOR IN
CHICAGO WHEAT PIT.
Attempt to Break Prices by Heavy
Selling Failed to Brlnsr About
the Expected Slump.
CHICAGO. Sept. 10. The scarcity of ahlpplng
wheat was the principal steadying factor In the
wheat pit. Cables were firm, but the weather
was about all that could be expected. An at
tempt was made early to break prices by
sales of 500.000 bushels by a leading elevator.
The fact that there was no appreciable slump
in this drive seemed to indicate to the bulls a
strong position of the principal grain. In con
sideration of this Influence and the small
Northwest and primary receipts, prices rallied.
The character of the buying after the eariy
pressure was very good, but fluctuations Were
narrow. December started wa'ttc lower 10
shade higher, at 6363c. sold to 63c, and
closed steady, a shade up. at 6Sc.
The absence of any damaging frosts in tne
corn belt started a small early selling move
ment in corn. Country offerings dried up ap
nreclablr. however, and bids for more stuff
started a firmer tone. Cables were steady, and
nromlnent bull gave good support. Septem
ber closed firm. c up. at 58c. December
closed easy. c lower, at 424"3c
Oats received fair support by a heading pro
fessional, and prices were steady on the
weather. September closed firm. c up. at
34c December closed steady, a shade up, at
31031c.
Provisions were very dull and weaK. Jan
uary pork closed 7c down, lard and ribs 2c
