TUB MORNING OBEGONIAN, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24: 1903. 13 MOREHOPSPLANTED Two Thousand Acres of New Yards Will Bear This Year IN THE WILLAMETTE VALLEY Increased Acreage in CuIIfornla and Washington Situation Stronger Than It Ilni lleen for Twenty Tears Slump In Ess Market. The high prices brought by 1002 .hops will doubtlesslnduce many growers to Increase their hop acreage this year, but It will not affect the 1003 yield, as It requires two years for vines In this climate to reach the b taring stage. Many new yards were set out last Spring, which will produce In the coming Fall. It Is ectlmatcd that 2000 acres were set out tn Oregon In 1K02, but the Increase In yield, supposing weather conditions are repeated, will do little more than offset the deterioration of old yards. Hops quickly drain the soil of Its chemical elements, and, as the Northwestern growers, have not-been fertilizing on scientific principles, the yield of their yards has been gradually decreasing, some hopmen estimating the decrease at 10 per cent per year. Still there will be some Increase oxer the produc tion of last Fall If the weather Is satisfactory. In California, the Increase will be larger In proportion, as the vines bear a fairly good crop the same year they are planted. The follow ing table shows the acreage la the three Pa cific States la 1002 and the estimated acreage this year: 1902. 1933. Oregon 17.000 19.000 California . 8.500 Washington 0.000 5,700 In Its review of the bop situation, the Boston Commercial Bulletin says: The situation has not been as strong la 20 years as It is today. The Increase in the con sumption of malt Hquots all over the world, more especially In the United States, perhaps, together with the small amount of hops car ried over .from last season and the failure la the New York State crop this season, has caused prices of not only new bops, but old olds, to Jump higher than even the shrewdest dealer or grower anticipated six months ago. For the past six or seven years the prices realized by growers for bops have not been high enough to Induce new men to enter the Held, and many of the old growers have either died or cone out of the business, and given their ground over to something else, which, for the time at least, showed them better results. Meanwhile the consumption of malt liquors has been Increasing: therefore, as one of Boston's largest dealers expresses It, "the higher prices have not been brought about by speculation, but are due to natural causes that Is to say, supply and demand." The latter pari of last reason certain dealers saw that prices must go higher, but even these men did not expect to see the price of choice hops over .20 or 22 cents a pound. Since Spring there has been no offering of 1901 hops worthy of mention, and brewers were forced to buy old olds. Not only Is the 1901 crop practically exhausted here, but other growing countries have carried nothing over Into this season. The shortage In this year's crop is placed at C5.000 bales, and most of this loss was brought about by the blight to the New Tork State crop early In the Summer. "Last year New Tork furnished 63.000 bales towards the world's supply, while this year only about 22, 000 bales were gathered. The Pacific Coast crop as a whole turned out very well. In some sec tions on the Coast a slight falling off In the yield was reported, while In others there was a little Increase, .so that in the aggregate there was an average crop harvested. This esti mated shortage of,G5tO00 bales, means a loss of about J000"cars. ' When last year's crop was put on the mar ket dealers were anxious to sell at 12 cents a pound, but now they are asking brewers from 30&32 cents, and In some Instances even higher prices have been obtalnet A year ago dealers could go Into the country and find no trouble In picking up thousands of bales of old hops, while today It Is a difficult matter to get any thing at all. Old olds have Jumped In price from $1 a bale to 3 cents a pound a year ago to SQ12 cents a pound today, and very few can be bourn t under the outside price. Brewer are using old olds today who have not used any for 20 years, as there Is no available sup ply of either 1899, 1000 or 1901 hops. As soon as they realized how grave the situation was they began to buy almost anything marked "bops" to mix with the new bops, and by so doing bringing the cost down to a lower aver age. In 1S78 the output of malt liquors In this S country was 3,000,000 barrels, while the figures for the past year touch 43,000,000 barrels. Meanwhile there has been no relative Increase In the yield of hops. This shortage la the sup ply will be felt for"" a number of years, and for the next two years at least prices will be high. The growers have made the most money out of this advance, as they were far-sighted enough to ban: on to their hops. Of course this more than doubling of prices will cause many to start raisins hops,, but It takes .fully two years for' the new yards to amount to anything. The brewing Industry has been spreading out to all quarters of the globe during the past few years. Breweries have been started up In very warm climates by the aid of lee plants, and these plants must draw their supplies from this country of Continental Europe. The Eng lish crop this year Is smaller than last year's. the figures being 300,000 hundredweight, against 660,000 hundredweight last year. This reduc tion of over one-halt has brought about in In creased export aeroana nere, Many of the dealers have been hit hard this season. Several made contracts to deliver choice New Tork State hops to brewers at IS cents, and thought they were getting a good price, but today they are going round trying io gee me Drcwers to let tnem out. SLUMP IX EGG MARKET. Receipts Are Largely j.n Excess ot the Demand. The expected slump in the egg market-has coma. Receipts have been heavy for a week or more, 'and are now In excess ot consump tion. The market was relieved last week by "heavy shipments to Alaska, but as that demand has been satlsfled-and there' is no further out let for large orders, local stocks have begun to accumulate. A few sales were made at the opening of business yesterday at 25 cents, but by noon the market had dropped to 2214 cents. One fairly large order was Oiled la the after, noon at. 21 cents, and -before the close of the day offerings were made at 20 cents. Some of the trade were accused of helping the decline by Juggling with packers. There is 'little doubt that prices will continue to drop until the bottom has been reached. There Is a dif ference of opinion as to what that figure will be, but the prediction Is made that 14 cents will be reached before the market recovers. Retailers are buying only to fill Immediate wants. British Imports of Frnlts. The Imports of fresh fruits and nuts Into lh United Kingdom for the calendar year 1902 amounted In value to 0.008.070, as compared with 7.324.218 In 1901 and 7.453,615 in 1900. The Hems Include apples, apricots, peaches, bananas, cherries, currants, gooseberries. grapes, lemons, oranges, pears, plums, straw berries, almond nuts and others used as des sert and unenumerated. The re-exports of fruit last year made a total In value ot 157.4S3; In Wl. 131.488. and In 1000, 162,2S0. No cured or canned fruits are Included In the totals given. Coconnnt Outlook. The report that the crop of cocoannt very short Is accepted by some persons Inter ested as correct, wnue others are inclined look upon It as one of the common moves boost prices end support the market: The reg. ill n r nrlrM. It la xnM a r t-ln, m,l.,.u.j .firmly, and there Is no Immediate Indication or an advance. Idaho Fruit Shipments. "Horticultural Inspector MePherson rays that Idaho Is coming to the front as a fruitgrowing country. Return of brchardlsts for last year were over tl.OOO.OOO. and tho output this year Is likely to be doubled. Over 45,000 acres of and Is la fruit, and about 2500 carloads vert ihlFped out of the state. The northern part of the state runs to apples and pears, the southern to prunes. Prunes were shipped Into Oregon, which Is a prase country. Some blight appeared on pear trees, but this can be stamped out before' It becomes serious. Orecon Prone Crop. Oregon prunes have practically all been mar keted, and It may now be said with consid erable assurance that the crop aggregated more than the estimates which have been heretofore accepted as reliable. The whole outpu,t of the state for the past season, says the Oregon Ag riculturist, has been la excess of 13,000.000 pounds. While a small crop. It was far re moved from a failure. The quality of the Italians was unusually good, and the average packing was better than ever before. Holiday Not Generally Kept. The holiday was not observed to any large extent In the Jobbing trade. All the produce houses were open and most ot the merchandise concerns did business, up to the usual hour. The freight depots were open, and the boats all ran oa regular schedule. The banks were closed during the day. and the wheat exporters and some ot the large shipping offices closed at noon. The Eastern and Coast exchanges were all closed. PORTLAND MARKETS. Grain. Flour. Feed. Etc, The wheat traders took a holiday yesterday, but the market ha been so lifeless for a week past that their absence was not felt. The Hour aad feed markets were slow. Concerning the Argentine export surplus of wheat, tho New Tork Evening Tost says: "The usual weekly revision of the estimated exportable sur plus In Argentina was Issued today. This time the total Is placed at about 74,000.000 bushels. or from 4.000,000 to 0,000.000 bushels lets than estimated a short time ago. Of course, any one at all familiar with the crude conditions prevailing In that country, especially as to the facilities for gathering crop statistics and In formation, know how little credsnce can be placed on all such estimates. In view of' the numerous overestlmatlons la former years, con servative traders are Inclined to ihe opinion that Argentina Is not likely to export over 65,- 000.000 bushels during 1903.

LIAR AS WELL AS THIEF Fox' Swells Robbery of Jewelry About Seventy-Fold. DENVER. Feb. & A young; man Btirlnjj his name as Fred J. Fox walked Into the Police Station Just before 1 o'clock, this morning- and said he wanted to surrender. He, told Captain Leo that be was wanted In Detroit. Mich., for the theft of $2,500 worth of diamonds. Fox said he worked for Charles Rice, wholesale and retail jeweler, and often rhade large purchases of roods for him. About six weeks ago, he says, he went to the firm of Horace W. Steere and got possession of diamonds valued at the amount given above. Then he left the city and went to Kansas City, where he disposed of the diamonds for $17,000. He came to Denver, be says, a month ago, and had $11,500 when he reached here. He says he still has the' money, and will use It In trying to get out of the trouble. When searched not a cent was found on his -person. He smiled at the captain who conducted the search and remarked that a day sooner would have netted c different result. DETROIT. Feb. 25. Instead of being wanted tn this city for the theft of $22,600 worth of diamonds, as' ha told the Denver police, Fred J. Fox will be brought back here on a warrant charging him with -stealing a little over $300. At the office ot H. W. Steere the dispatch paying "Fox had stolen $22,300 was laughed at. He secured only four-diamond rings valued at a little over $300. One of these he pawned before leaving town. The police will send an officer to Denver.

DEATH HAS NO TERRORS Mnrderer Ileldlntt Rexards Ills Ap proaching Doom With Unconcern. Murderer A. I Beldlog appears to look forward peacefully to his approach ing end, and Is expected to die bravely. He Is somewhat thin and pale from long confinement, but he eats heartily and sleeps about IS hours out of 21. He has but few visitors beciuse Sheriff Storey does not permit strangers to see him out of Idle curiosity. Beldlng does not wish to be Inter viewed by newspaper reporters, because he does not care to talk about himself nor the crimes which he committed.
