Some of the outside millers, however, have been talking of . 15-cent advance and It will de velop today whether they will make their prediction good.

That there is no scarcity of hop-pickers this season Is shown by the rapidity with which A. J. Ray & Eons' big wltchhaxel yard has been picked. Work began In the yard just ten days ago and last night the last hop was picked. The crop amounts to 108.000 pounds, equal to the quantity grown last year. However, about 10.000 pounds of last year's crop was left on the vines and it took three and one-half weeks to gather the remainder. The better time made this year was due to the abundance of help. The quality of the wltchhaxel bops Is fin. There Is not much business) stirring In the market yet.

DUE TO POLITICAL SCARE Talk of Harrlman and Hill Weakens the Confidence) of Speculators. Market Full of Stop- , Loss Orders. NEW YORK. Sept. 17. An upward reaction In prices of stocks In the early part of today served to demonstrate that large speculative liquidation was waiting to take advantage of the better prices. A violent relapse from the advanced level was the consequence. The market proved to be more honeycombed with stop-loss orders than bad been supposed and the bears had good success la covering these and precipitating; some disorder In the efforts to execute them. The decline In prices waa generally ac cepted In the Wall street district as due to a "political scare." although that term was somewhat variously defined. It was agreed. however,' that it emanated from the expres sions of discontent with political conditions and with the apathetic spirit of the cam palgn In the West, which have been uttered for publication by various Influential financiers, among whom E. H. Hanimen and Jaraes J. Hill are conspicuous. The opposing; views of whether these expressions represented real solicitude over political prospects or a tactical maneuver to dispel the apathy of the cam palgn came Into agreement on the point of their purpose to effect a checking of -4he speculative demand for stocks. The supposition that these high financial authorities were no longer committed to an opinion of unmixed confidence In the specu lative outlook Is sufficient ground to shake the speculative fabric, as they have been credited with the largest part, both by advice and by action. In lifting prices to the level Unfavorable dividend prospects continued staple of discussion today and bore especially on the three great Northwestern systems which have mads the largest expansion In their share of capital In contrast with heavy shrinkage in earnings since the financial de pression. Advices from the Iron and steel trade em phasized the slowness' of the recovery, and another reduction In the price of copper at the New jork Metal Exchange served as an admonition of the same effect. Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value, $3,680,000. United States 2a advanced and the 4s per cent In the bid price on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low.
