THE HOP YIELD. STashlne-ton, SO.OOO. Haled Caltfornl 00,000 llalee, and Oregon, TO.OOO BtlM. . Prntking of tlio hop situation, Cap' tam (..eorK'e yoyo, 01 rortiana, says: "The situation of Oregon's bop crop this year U a poouliar one. Four weeks ago the most conservative grower or dealer had made up his mind that nearly 100,000 bales would be pro tlnceit in this Mate. The liops were on the vines, and no doubt the quality would have beeu excellent but for the heavy rains in August, which imparted new life to vines, and fresh strobiles began to set on laterals that could not have come to maturity at so late date. In addition to this, the core i the burr crew continuously under con ditions produced by the Aoguxt rains and the warm weather of this month. so that growers were confronted by problem that puzzled them. Kilns which in former years could be dried in 18 hours could not this year be taken off in less than 24 to 26 hours and in some cases even 80 hours were required to take off a flooring of moder ate size. Thin threw the drying ma chuiery out of shape. The hops, owing to the cool weather of August were lackward. Picking of them did not become general until about September 10, so that all large yards have suf fered considerably. Entire yards hav leen abandoned on account of the rapid spread of mold, with the result that the crop has been cut down to about 70,000 bales. The quality of these 70, 000 bales will range about 10,000 bales choice, 80,000 to 40,000 medium. and the remainder indifferent. "From what is known of other states, California has the best quality, and 60,000 bales is said to be the yield in that state. Washington's quality paid to be the same as ours, but as that state is seven or eight days later in maturing the crop west of the Caa cades, it is doubtful if it will harvest the quota accredited to her 50,000 bales. New York has one-third less this year than last, and the crop is said to have come down in very poor shape. English advices are contacting, The yield in England is said to be the heaviest in many years. One writer who is an authority, while very con servative, gives the yield as 1,100 pounds per acre. b England this year has 60,000 acres of hops. Such yield, therefore, if it is all gathered, will be nearly equal to British con sumption. Germany's crop is also above the average, but it is doubtful if she has many hops to throw on the ex port market. The market value of English hops today ranges from 2 15s to 4 10s per 112 pounds, but it is said that even these prices will not be maintained after the surplus of the United States seeks an outlet. As to this, however, there is no assurance "The points in favor of the grower are these: First, the old stocks have all been worked off, and the crop of the world goes to a practically bare market; second, times all the world over are better, confidence has been restored, labor is everywhere fully employed, and hence the consumption of beer is on the increase." Seattle Starch Factory. At the meeting of the Seattle chain bor of commerce at Seattle last week that committee reported in favor of aid' ing in raising f 25,000 for the establish' mint of a starch factory there. The proposed factory is to be built under the supervision of Mr. Hundhausen, of Westfalen, Germany whose family owns a secret process oi making starch that has been in use for 30 years. The process saves all the gluten from the flour, while the process now in use on the coast, saves little or none of the gluten. The estimated cost of build ing and running the factory is 27,924. It is estimated that a factory at that point could sell in round numbers one eighth of all the starch used on the coast, or per annum 600,000 pounds. This is an average of one ton per day and would require 1.33 tons of flour per day. To Hare a Begnlar Steamship Line. The Alaska Packers Association is making preparations to establish a regu lar steamship line running betweci. San Francisco and Bristol bay next summer. The company hag several canneries located on Bristol bay which are operated during the summer, but there has been no mail or passenger service from that place. The men en gaged in fishing there are shut out from the world while the season lasts. The association has recently let a contract with a Portland firm for the building of a steamer wheh will cost $200,000. Atlin Need Mora Court. A petition is being circulated in At lin asking for the appointment of a county court judge for that district. The need of such a court is imperative. Already there are 28 cases on the cal endar. This, in most instances, will work great hardship. In one case an old gentleman sued for 60 days' wages at 4 per day, in all $240. The mount being over $100 the matter could not bo settled in the small debts courts, and so the case pends. Six carloads of fancy liquors, weigh ing 60 tons, going to Dawson under special permits issued by Canadian government officials, went through Skagway recently in care of a convoy pf the United States customs inspector. Drn In Operation. A few days of warm weather have ripened the prunes at Boseburg so rap idly that the packers were forced to quit packing. L. Chapman sent one car to Montana and T. N. Segar, of Eugene, thrrfe cars to the Eastern states. Mr. Kiddle and Mr. Wonacott have started their dryers and all the other dryers of the valley will start up Within a few days. Good paper is made in Holland of die stalks of potato plants. Oregon'! Medicine Industry. Dr. J. A. Lamberson has "during the past few months bought for shipment near Lebanon, 840 tons of cascara bark, fur which he has paid $60 a ton, or a total of $34,000. He has also bought B0 tons of Oregon grape root, paying therefor $1,200. The doctor is also Investigating the market for fir balsam, having bought 66 barrels of that article paying $1,250 per barrel. Dr. Lam berson, who resides at Starbuck, Wash., states that lie is now convinced that the collection of medicine barks, to., will prove a permanent industry o that section of Oregon, GENERAL TRADE IS GOOD. Reaction In ttia Dtock Market Hat Bat Little street. K. G. Dun fc Co.'s weekly review of trade says: The reaction in tho ttoo market is not a sign of anything outside that market, but has caused manv to look for signs of a reaction elsewhere. Such signs have) been hard to find. It has been for months a wonder that the demand for products was sustained at rates exceeding past consumption in any year, notwithstanding the general rises in prices. But the demand does not appear to abate, and the rise in prices continues: Wheat exports fall a little below last year's, but in three week, flour included, have been 8,866,877 bushels for Atlantio ports, against 9,393,831 bushels last year, and 1,021,998 bush' els from Pacitio ports, against 907,961 bushels last year. But Western re ceipts have been 21,759,852 bushels, against 33,099,397 bushels last year, and even more impressive are the re ceipts of 13,616,032 bushels of corn, against 11,177,483 bushels last year. and the exports of 9,201,427 bushels. against 6,943,966 last year. Further government reports have been so credited abroad that cotton has risen to 6.63 cents, but It comes for ward more freely than in years of max imum crops. w hen men pay $3 to $5 per ton more than the latest quoted price for iron products in order to get early deliver ies, it is because delay is threatened on works or railroads or bridges, vessels or machinery, promising a profit many times the cost of a small fraction of the material. In such circumstances as in much of the reconstruction and ex pansion now going on, present cost counts for little compared with the earning power of the finished product in a time like this.

Johann Strauss, the waltz king, was scarcely laid away to rest la the .Fried bof when a series of disputes arose over his possessions. Strauss secured to his wife and stepdaughter, as well his sisters, moderate Incomes for life, and then made the Society of Friends of Music his heir-at-law. lie disinherited his brother, tho well known Eduard Strauss, and made no provision for the destitute widow of his brother Joseph. The chief effort to dis pute the legality of Straws' will Is to be made by h:s second wife, from whom he claimed that he was divorced. When Strauss contracted his second marriage both he and his wife were Roman Catholics, and were united In a Catholic church and with the rites of that religion. The Austrian marriage laws are exceptional'y severe, aud mar ried Catholics can In this country se cure a legal separation from one anoth er, but never an absolute divorce which enables them to marry again. The re sult Is that Koman Catholics who have secured a separation resort to all sorts of evasions of the law In order to mar ry again. Johann Strauss receded from Roman Catholicism and became a Prot estant then emigrated to the Duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Gotba, resided there for a period, obtained an absolute divorce from his wife and married a third time. This evasion of the Austrian mar riage lawsdeprlved Stratus of the court favor which be bad enjoyed, and It seems certain that In the strict legal sense his second wife Is his rightful widow, whereas his third wife, for whom he has provided, had no authen tic claim on him. The Austrian laws ol succession provide that a wife can nev er be disinherited, but has always a claim on at least one-tblrd of the prop erty left by her husband, so that the second wife of the great musician has every prospect of obtaining this share of bis wealth. At present she Is In poor circumstances, and earns her liv ing In a photographic studio In Berlin. Walla Plastered with Coin. Miss Daisy Dentz, of Dentzvllle, N. J., a suburb of Trenton, has prob ably the largest collection of coins In New Jersey. Some of them are many hundred years old, and tbey represent the currencies of nearly every country in the world. Some Idea of the size of the collection may be gathered from the fact that the celling of Mist Dentz's boudoir Is completely covered with United States money, while the four walls are hidden behind the coins of Asiatic, European, African and South American countries. There it considerable history attached to tblt collection, especially to the English coins, which were found near Prince ton in a queer shaped hat by one of Miss Dentz's relatives while In search of minerals. The hat Is similar In shape to those worn by the Hessian soldiers during the revolution and Is still hi Miss Detnz's possession. There are many valuable coins in her collection, and were she to convert them all into present American currency they would yield quite a snug sum. Philadelphia Record. The Wind Made Hnowbails. Last March there was a remarkable exhibition at Grafton, N. H of the comparatively rare phenomenon of "snow rollers." Freshly fallen snow was rolled by the wind Into Innumer able cylinders, some of them as large as a barrel, which dotted the bills and fields. Similar rollers have been seen In recent years In Connecticut, In Kan sas and In the State of Washington. The size varies with the strength of the wind.
