The first Bale of spot hops of th 1006 crop
vu reported yesterday. The E. Clemens
Horst Company bought the Eastern lot of 23
bales of fuggles at Eugene. The price was
not made public, but it la said 18 cents had
been offered for fuggles in that vicinity.
A aample of Burst's Wheatland hops was
eeen at the office of Klaber, Wolf and Netter
yesterday. They were very attractive and for
early balint were better than for some eea
eons past.
A London cable stated that picking would be
general in England next week.
Some of the plantation reports In the Kent
ish Observer of August 16 are here given to
show conditions aa they .existed then In the
Engliflh yards:
Ashford District The hops in the well-managed
gurdens of this district have improved
considerably of late, and I think where the

average peracre will be very small
t I cannot state the amount until
.ops are more developed. There Is
hardly any mold.
Blddenden The hops in this parish axe com
ing out slowly and the shortness of the crop
becomes more apparent daily. There may be
a few pieces that will grow 10 cwt. per acre,
but more none at all. I should think 3 cwt.
per acre would top the average. To make
this pay we ought to have 12 per cwt. Not
many years ago in a year like thia hops would
make 15 to 20.
Canterbury The situation ha undergone but
little alteration singe last week.. . The best
bine Is ding fairly well, and hops are grow
ing out, but there Is a very unhealthy look
about some 'grounds, owing chiefly to the ab
sence of rain. It is quite certain now that the
average yield per acre will not exceed that
of 194. and it may be considerably less.
Iavingtoh The vermin seems to hav left
the hps at last, but bine is very slack and
crop prospects are not nearly so good as in
VJ04.
Eaerton It Is estimated that the crop In
this parish will not exceed from 2 to 3 cwt.
per acre, though there are a few that look

growths, rang'r.g from 10. to 15 cwt. per
acre, but as the bine Is short, generally speak
ing, the total crop will probably hot be more
than half that of last year.
From a number of trade reports printed In
h Observer, the following are taken:
It Is now plainly visible that the comin
hop crop will be the shortest for many years;
some of the beet-tended gardena are holding
eir own, but many are giving in. Business

The picking will commence between the 20t.

report favorably, and the picking of the ear
lies has already commenced. German reports
are also more cheering and sneak of a gen
eral Improvement. Picking will be late this
season. France expects about as many hops
as 1905, and Russia will. grow not many less.
Nineteen hundred and five hops are In less
demand, but stocks on sale In Saaz and
Nuremberg are very short.'
APPERSON CROP SOLD.
Lachmond A Pincns Secure the McMlnnvill
Hops, Afoo the Myers Lot.
SALEM, Or., Aug. 30. (Special.) The EX
C. Apperson hop crop, at McMlnnvJUe, which
has been reported sold several times, was
purchased today by Lachmund & Pincus. The
crop amounts to about 25.000 pounds and sold
for 20 cent. The quality Is choice. A crop
of primes owned by R. F. Myers, at Jef
ferson, 20,000 pounds, was bought today by
the same firm at 18 cent a
A cablegram from England today eonflfms

oiltry la Good Demand With Some Quota
tions Higher.
. Eggs sold all the way from 2Zh to 25
?nts yesterday with most of the business
-wine at 23 ifr and 24 cents, a cent more being
-ked occasionally on single cascs.
The poultry market was active and prices
advanced by some dealers, though re
r.its were somewhat larger than they had.
n. The weekly market letter of a Front-1,-et
firm said: l
As we predicted, the market has been very
od this week and while receipts have been
f etty heavy, all have been used and more
ire wanted. Hens of good size are in de
isnd at 14 cents, and large Spring are
rm at about the same price, with a slight
iidvance in some cases. Ducks are also In
ood demand. Geese sell well at 8 to 10
s.entfl. We are getting but few turkey, and
.Id. if fat. are firm at 15 to 16 cpnu. Large
j'spring turkeys will sell at from 20 to 22
-ents. It sterns to us that there should be
some fine large young turkeys In the market
m v this time. We are of the opinion that
is market for all poultry will be very goou
the coming week, and that those who have
nice hens and large Springs will make no
mistake In shipping freely.
No further changes occurred In the but
ter market. One commtssloa firm reported
a large stock on hand and prices at 47 4 50
cents a roll. Others had light stocks and.
quoted up to top city creamery prices.
ROGUE RIVER WATERMELONS.
First Car of Season Proves ' to Be of Ex
cellent Quality,
The first car of Rogue River melons of the
season was recel-d by Dryer O'Mallory & Co.
yesterday. The crop does not promlae to be
very plentiful, but the quality of the first lot
shipped here could not be surpassed. A car
of Oregon melons from The Dalles arrived a
few days ago. Cantaloupes were !n over
supply and sold at all kind of prices from
$1.50 downward. Some very scrubby lots were
turned over to the hawkers at 25 cents a
crate. A car of very fancy cantaloupes from
Payette arrived last night. A fair quantity
of peaches came up from Southern Oregon
points and cleaned up well. Some Tokay
grapes arrived from that section and brought
$1.25 to $1.50, according to quality. Black
California grapes carried over from the last
were quoted at 75 cents.
No California produce Is expected by rail
before Tuesday owing to the landslide.
Good Demand for nressed Meats.
A good firm demand exists for fancy veal
at full prices. There is also a steady in
quiry for solid, medium, and small hogs. Of
the veal market a dealer eays: "We have been
short of veal for a month or so, and while
we have spent many dollars in postals and
other ways trying to gather up a lot of them
before everyone begins to ship them In, we
have had but little luck, and are still very
short, although good prime veal are selling
at 8c."

CALL LOANS HIGHER
Money Conditions Govern the
Stock Market.
DEMAND STERLING LOWER
Opening Strength in the Active List
Gives Place to Ail-Around Weak
ness, and the Close Is
at the Lowest.
NEW YORK. Aug. 30. Money conditions
governed today's stock market. Call loans at
8 per cent, time loans showing a hardening
tend-ency and the threatened obliteration of
last week's low bank reserves were condi
tions that could not be Ignored. The foreign
exchange situation, with a further heavy de
cline in demand sterling to 34.S4.23, caused
Increased perplexity. This Is almost on &
parity with the rate of last April when Sec
retary Shaw was Induced to "facilitate" gold
Imports and while much talk of impending
negotiations continues to be heard, of actual
engagements there were none up to the close
of the market. v
The local banks reported a further loss to
the Subtreaaury, the total thus far aggre
gating over 4.000.000, or within $250,000 of
their free resources, ss disclosed by the last
bank statement.
Our market got its early strength from
London, which - reported . generally higher
prices for Americans and heavy buying orders
for this account. Business here started olT
with a rush and materially higher prices ail
through the . active list. The greatest gains
were made by the Hill Issues, Union Pacific,
B. & O. and St. Paul, these advancing from
1 to 5 point. The market continued ani
mated, though somewhat confused all through
the first hour, when ' an opening rate at 6
per cent for call loans brought heavy selling
for pronts. Thereafter the market was dull
and narrow, though showing some renewal of
activity In the late session when Harriman
lrsues advanced to new high record figures.
The market became heavy In the last hour,
when call money advanced to 8 per cent,
prices dropping from 1 to 5 points all around
and 'closing weak at the day's lowest quota
tions. In some quarters there was a dispo
sition to attribute this in a measure to the
possibilities arising from the reception ot
Bryan's speech in the evening.
Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value,
the new 4s a point on call.

Sentiment in Chicago Wheat
Pit Becomes Bearish.
IS MUCH PROFIT-TAKING
Selling of September Option Inspired
by Fear of Large Deliveries Next
Saturday December Grain
Closes Half Off.
CHICAGO. Aug. 30. Sentiment in the wheat
pit was bearish all day. the market being In
fluenced largely by a decline of ftd in the
price of wheat in Liverpool. Throughout the
session there was liberal profit-taking in Sep
tember wheat, selling being inspired by a fear
of large deliveries on September contracts next
Saturday. Elevator lntereata were the chief
buyers. The close was easy. December
opened a shade to 3Vc lower at 73674c,
sold off to 73&c and closed 9'8 lower at
73 He.
The corn market was weak. Profit-taking
In the September option was a feature. De
cember opened unchanged to c higher at
