The FrpMh hop crop, as was expected, prove to bo almost a. record -breaker In point of smallnefia. The official figures of the British government, mado public yesterday, how that for 24 years there 1ms nut been such an unsatisfactory output. The following London cable was received by Klaher, Wolf & Netter, of this city, yes terday morning: '( rovernment's estimate of English crop is 246.0.Vi cwt., or 3tj.ClJ cwt. lts than loot. This Is the h-west estimate of Kiigli-sh crop in 50 yeais. except In J.o'79 and 182." Joseph Harris, of Slem, representative of Benjamin Schwa r:i & Son, received the follow ing London cable: "Official estimate of English crop is 2H,'..K cwt. Market is Arm."

Hnpgrowing countries of continental Europe this year pro duced only atniut half a crop and the Amer ican yield was only about the average. Yet piicrs hrive been held down around 14 and 15 cenl s and no one wants hops even at these llj: ur . Several reasons are advanced for the pe on liar conditions fx listing In the market. The principal one is that brewers arc carry ing largo reserve fbcks of lat year's hops, estimated by some hopmcn to lie the largest quantity carried by the brewing trade In many ears. Roth brewer and dealers are alo liberally supplied w 1th contracted hops. The lack of interest Miown by the Eastern trade In Oregon hops up to this time is attributed in part to the fact that New York State this year raised a large crop of superior quality, while many of the reports that have gone out from thlfi Mate are that thn Oregon hops are potty. When a representative line of sam ples is at the di.ipo.sal of the Eastern hopnien they will very soon find that there are plenty of good hops to be had in this state. "With the market so uncertain, speculative buyers refrained from taking hold, believing that still lower prices would result from the Inaotlvity. The lack of general demand will doubtless, if it continues, cause many grow ers to try to sell, but there are others who believe that a healthy reaction is bound, to come later and they cannot be frightened into parting with their goods at present prices. This Js especially true of the holders of choice hops. It has all along been aaid that tho English demand would, ba late, but when it does come It will make its presence felt. It 1 to be hoped that the buying movement that was Inaugurated by Salem dealers yesterday afternoon marks the beginning of a period of activity. , Salem Dealers Birring. 6AXEM, Or.. Oct. 11. (Special.) Conrad Krebs bought 20a bales of hops from Otto Hanson today at 15 4c. Jtwph Harris bought UK bales from Fred Doze at the same pries. POULTRY U.YRD TO MOVE. Prices Weak in Suite of Small Receipts Fggs Steady. In spite of a marked falling off In re ceipts of poultry, the market continues in a bad way, a9 the demand Is exceedingly light and mocks can only be cleaned up at con ceptions. The outlook i& not good for im provement this woek. Eggs rule fairly active and prices are main tained. " There Is considerable complaint of the quality some of the ranch stock re ceived. The butter situation shows no change. Only one city creamery has o far advanced iu quutati'-n. On Kront street stocks were large est onlay and the tone weak. The future of the market k pendx largely on the weather for the next few weeks. Northern Potato Crop. hienso Packer has been can .usMinsr i?to hM In Indiana. Iowa, 'the Da- k "VsbV ' Minnesota and Wisconsin. Nearly all of tts rp'M-t.s mention damage of some sort to the crop and few if any of them indicate that thre will he a full yield. In fact, the niojt important feature of the reports In gen eral if that sniy h moderate crop is expected. ThT Is considerable difference in the reports in t he matter of prices, but this is largely .iue to the fact that the active shipping seH Fnn hns not commenced yet, and, as ue-uully, the early Kales are at irregular prices. A IV told, the report h Indicate that there will b nothing like a bumper crop of potatoes in the territory covered by the inquiries. I-'Ive Cars of UanunaH Due. Five cars of bananas are due tonight, four from Port Litnon and one from Honduras. There were no carlot arrivals of fruit or veg etables yesterday. The produce trade was plow, being adversely affected by the stormy weather. PORTXANP QUOTATIONS. Grain, Flour, Feed. Etc.

UNSETTLES THE MARKET Character of Trading Continues to Be Spotty Kise In Bank of Eng ' land Discount Rate Does Xot Affect Money Market. NEW YORK. Oct. 11. Th day'B stock market had abundant evidence of . strength, and vhll, there was no actual rLslna tendencr. prices held firm until the drive aeainst the market In the la8t hour. The eharaeter ot the tradluir waa not much changed and was etill nott3'. The buyinff waa spasmodic and came in large orders and gave the impression of coming from identical sources. The ef fective demand converged also on a few stocks. Ueneral developments' had little bearing on the day's market. The news which developed last night of a failure tn the Cuban-American trade. Involving between $3,000,000 and H.000, 000, seemed to be completely Ignored. The rise of a full 1 per cent to 6 per cent xn the Bank of England discount rate did not cause a ripple In the stock market either here or in London, having been certainly anticipated. The rebound in sterling exchange rates today waa violent here and in Paris and Berlin and showed the imperative nature of the demand of the financial centers for the recall of re sources. In this market it made itself felt by heavy remittances to pay maturing indebt edness. The absence of effect on the local money nmrket in face of this process was re garded as reassuring. The sterling rate at Paris jumped to the gold export point and It Is that point that is looked upon as likely to come to the relief of London's need for replenished reserves. The Knglish bank's $12,5-7,050 decrease in bullion brought its proportion of reserve to liabilities down to 35.45 per cent from 38.50 per cunt last week. Iast year in this week the pro portion was increased from 3b per cent to 41 hi- The bank sent another tl.oCO.Otio bul lion to ligypt today. There was a general re sponse, tn foreign discount to this action by the Bank of Enaland. Interior exchanseil on New York still rule at a discount, and $."jJ0.000 was transferred from here to Chicago today through the sub-Treasury. The continued deposit of Government funds with the local banks served to keep the local monev market replenished. The event of the day which attracted most Kpeculatlve interest was the rise In United States Steel to SO. Speculative sentiment watched the action of the stock at that point as a guide for future prospects. It was known that enormous selling orders at that price would have to be encountered. On the other hand, it was argued that if the stock rose through that obstacle successfully tho way would be opened for a considerable further ad vance in the stock. When it touched JO and then rell back there was a perceptible back set in the whole market. Pressure ' was most pronounced anainst Union Pacific and rumors were circulalea of an intended Government process against the company. The Department of Justice at Washington, however, denied this. Shorts cov ered and made a vigorous rally In Union Pa cific, but the earlier gains in the market had been widely impaired and the closing was Ir regular. Honds were irregular.
