Spot Transactions in Wheat
and Hops Are Few.
BIG YIELDS ALMOST CERTAIN
Interest in Premier Ccrcnl Hni Shift
ed From Old to New Season Good
Salmon Catch and Active Wool
Movement Help Trade.
Old stocks of wheat and hops are so
nearly exhausted that dealers are now
centerlnz their efforts on the coming
crops. There Is still an active move
ment tn wool and trait, and the sal
mon rack Is ahead of that of a year
ago, with steadily Increasing prices.
-tl
The 1902 Oregon -wheat crop Is still some
stages away from the warehouse, and the hop
crop is still "a'-srowln' on de vine," but In
terest In both of these great staples has shifted
from the small amount of spot business possible
to the new crop. In the case of wheat, a crop
which will be very close to a record-breaker Is
practically assured, and as the outlook Is fa
vorable for good prices, business men and
farmers are alike nleased with the situation.
In the case of hops, new-crop contracts con
tinue to be written at record prices, and the
crop is coming along in excellent shape. For
spot business, -wool, salmon and fruit are at
present contributing more of the sinews or
trade than ever before at this season of the
year. Eastern buyors are taking all of the
wool that is offered at full prices, and It is' a
case of buyers hunting the sellers, instead or
Vice versa.
The crop of small fruits, with the exception
of cherries, has been marketed at the best
averago price received In many years, and
clear profits of $200 per acre on -strawberries
oro not unusual. The market for oats, which
Was very strong so long as the British and
American Governments were both in the field
as buyers, has flattened out, and prices are
weak, with a big crop coming on to still fur
ther depress the market. Old potatoes are prac
tically off the boards, and the remaining stocks
are so slight as to render quotations of little
value. New Oregon potatoes have appeared,
and the market Is also well supplied with new
California potatoes at gradually declining
prices. Butter and eggs are firm and higher.
Poultry Is steady, with the exception of ducks
and geese. In groceries, there is a big demand
for staples, but no material change in prices.
WHEAT The local wheat market is drifting
along undr easy sail, with hardly enough busi
ness dolnc to enable an accurate Quotation to
Tie obtained. The first cargo of the season
was cleare yesterday, but It was purchased so
long ago that it has no bearing on the present
sltuatlbn. and nearly all of the exporters are
somewhat indifferent about buying wheat un
less they can secure It on a basis that will ad
mit of a profit. It is oomlng out so slowly that
it would require a ldfts. time to get a cargo
together, and wheat under such circumstances
never commands the figures which are obtain
able when it is forthcoming in round lets. Quo
tations are nominal at G5GGc for Walla Walla,
with quite a premium over these figures being
paid for milling purposes, whenever anything is
needed for that purpose. Valley for export will
not command much of a premium over Walla
Walla, but during the week sales have been
made to Valley mills on the basis of 70c Port
land. Freights continue weak, and a few charters
havo been reported recently around 2Ss.
Freights at this figure lookvery attractive, and
csperially so when they are compared with
the average for the past few years, and the
prospective big crop Is considered. At the
same time, some of this apparent strength evap
orates when the statistical position of ships is
considered. The surplus over and above the
supplies in sight for the Coast a year ago is
now la excess of 125,000 tons, or practically
200,000 tons carrying capacity, and even under
the most favorable circumstances from now on.
the crop of the Coast will not exceed, if it
reaches that of last year. Reports from the
Interior are nearly all to the effect that the
crop is coming along in excellent shape, and
the damage to Winter wheat caused by too
much rain has-been more than offset by the
benefits to the Spring grain. The season hns
drifted around to a point where the liability
lor not winds is greatly lessened, and even
should they appear, much of the wheat will
be beyond tho danger point.
The wheat situation abroad is thus reviewed
by F. Lenders & Co., of London, under date
of June 10:
In France, where the weather has been of a
particularly dlragreeable type, it is a well
known fact that the reserves ot old crop are
reduced to very small quantities, and as the
crop is now approaching its critical neriod.
farmers, no doubt, will be less inclined than.
-. ffl WOrt VXIK OTtn .I.... , . , .. ...
..-. . -..i. mui miak U1CJ I1UV6 jell, UI1UI
they see how the new crop progresses, and this
has led to a general advance in prices until
quotations are now only about Is 6dff2s under
an Import level, with the added duty of 12s 4d
per quarter. If the weather should take up
and remain fine until the harvest Is secured.
Of course. everything will be well, but a con
tinuation f unfavorable conditions would com
pel France almost immediately to become an
Importer, and as the rest of the Continental na
tions have little to spare until their crops are
assured, we might very easily see an advance
1 of several sailings a quarter. Without some
stimulus of this kind, however, there seems
nothing in the position to warrant a material
advance from the present level of values, be
cause, although the world's visible supply is
very moderate, and compares favorably with
previous years. " European stocks are being
.steadily augmented, and It is somewhat sig
nificant that Germany has resold a few cargoes
recently, which shows confidence in the growing
crop, and a feeling that supplies have already
been contracted for which will meet all re
quirements until the new crop has been gath
ered. So far as the United Kingdom is concerned,
there is no fear of any scarcity, but as regards
prices, everything turns on tho weather up till
harvest. We pay no attention to weather fore
casts, Lut simply repeat the fact which we
mentioned some weeks ago, namely, thaw for
the past six years we have only had the equal
of five years' rainfall, and a wet season is
fully due to restore the average, and average,
as everybody knows, is one of Nature's most
derpotl- laws.
HOPS Activity in new-crop hop contracting
continues, and so eager are buyers that prices
are steadily advancing. The outlook for a good
crop In this state is quite favorable, but New
Tork will have a very short crop, some of the
papers from that state predicting less than one
third of a crop in some sections. The E.
Clemens Horst Company, of San Francisco,
has Issued a circular which contains come

Tr-e havy crop for the years 1803. 1604 and
1S03 were the result of greatly increased acre
age Sn hops caused by the high prices that
ruled in 1S90. In the three years mentioned
a vast surplus of hops was carried over and
prices ruled much belowthe cost of production, I
the result was that In the Spring of ISM the.!
hop acreage was plowed Up to so large an ex
tent as to make the annual production ot hops,
from an Including 1800, less than the annual
requirements. This short production was not
felt until within the past few months, as the
surpluses accumulated by the crops of '93. '04
and & have, with the crops grown since then,
covered the requirements.
At the present time, however, practically all
of the surplus stock of new hops, old hops and
hop extract hava been used up, and when the
1002 hop crop Is harvested, there will be a
clean-up of old stock in America such as has
not been known for 20 years.
For tho comlfcg season, even should the crop
conditions be Ideal, and a maximum crop
raised, there would not be over 210,000 bales
produced on the acreage now in hops, and
this production Is insufficient for the ordinary
requirements.
"The realisation of these conditions is the
cause of the present price of hops in the
United States being about 100 per cent higher
than were the prices last Fall.
During the past 10 years the Pacific Coast
hops gained an Immense hold on the English,
ahd even the German markets. Last season,
notwithstanding the enormous crop in England,
tind the fact that American hops cost over 50
per cent more than English hops,, the exports
from this country (over and above the Imports
to America), were 63,000 bales. And of the 1002
Pacific Coast crop, heavy contracts for English
brewers' account have alretdy been made, and
are being made as fast as the growers will sell
at reasonable figures.
The English crop this year will run much
shorter than the 1001 Crop, find the Indications
are that their demand for 1902 American hops
will be much greater than for the 1901 crop.
In making'up the estimates for exports of 1002
crop, we have taken the same amount as ex
ported in 1001. Thus far contracts of 1002
crop for English account greatly exceed those
for 1001 crop at same date last year, and the
present demand is larger, but as the American
shortage will curtail Miipments abroad, the ex
ports for 1802 cannot be safely estimated at
this time.
During the past 10 years the net exports

States have been:

POTATOES AND ONIONS New Oregon po
tatoes are now coming to market, and are aid
ing the California product in crowding old po
tatoes out. The new-crop Oregon are not so
well matured as the California spuds, but they
sell at the same prices, both being quoted at
?1 25 per cental. California onions are plen
tiful at lri 25 per cental.
VEAL AND PORK There Is a firmer feeling
In the market for veal and pork, and both are
again selling at figures In excess of those
scheduled by tho local butchers' association.
Best small veal will command 8c, and good
block hogs are in demand at VnC Ordinary
stock of both veal and pork sells from lp
lower.
BUTTER The butter market is pretty firm
on best grades, and some of the dealers who
handle fancy selects with an established trade
are reported to be crowding tho limit of open
quotations and securing more than, 22c per
pound. Ordinary grades of creamery are sell
ing at 20c. but the standard grades more all
right at 2214c per pound. St6re butter, which
has been very firm for a lonfr time on Account
of a good California demand. Is a little weaker,
although It is still moving at 15lGc -per
pound. There is always a good demand from
San Francisco for butter which is not good
enough to sell in this market, the large num
ber of vessplsalllng in and out of that port
taking this kind of stock as eagerly as the
better grades.
EGGS Light receipts and a good demand
have started eggs on the up grade again, and
sales were made yesterday as high as 22J4c for
strictly first-class candled stock, although some
dealers obld at lower prices, the figures In
some cases being shaded to 21c Other dealers,
however, state that they have outside orders
which will take all of the eggs they can get
at 22c. and better, and there is accordingly
more firmness In the market than there has
been for a long time.
POULTRT The strength of the chicken mar
ket did not fade out With the Fourth-ofJuIy
festivities, for the National holiday left the
street so well cleaned up that there has been
a scarcity and high prices all of the time
since. Old chickens in good order move read
ily at $5f5 50 per dozen, and Springs sell from
?2 B04 50. according to size and condition.
There has been no improvement In the mar
ket for webfooted fowl, and ducks and geese
are botff obtainable at the lowest prices of the
season. There is no demand for turkeys.

IMPORTANT FACTOR OX SELLING
SIDE IN STOCKS-
Operations Are "by Speculative Ele
mentNot Favorable to Furtke
Advance la Prices.
NEW TORK. Jaly 0. The selllfir of stocks
today was obviously by the speculative element
which bought previously on the prospect of a
rise, their motive being, of course, to take
profits. Whether any active developments bear
ing upon values were considered Is not clear.
But there were one or two considerations which
might be construed against a further advance
In prices. .The marking up of St. Paul and
New Tork Central, together with some of the
eoft-coal stocks that were strong yesterday,. Is,
perhaps, sufficiently explained as a measure
of manipulation to facilitate the taking ot
profits elsewhere. Some of the high-priced In
dustrials worked higher oh what had the ap
pcaranco of Investment demand.
The proposed suit to enjdln the payment of
a dividend on United Slates Steel, common.
cam In for some figuring as to Its motive by
officials of tho corporation, and the advance
in the stock was apparently intended as a no
tice to opponents of a purpose to protect the
stock on the market. Of the factors making
for the selling side, the continued heavy move
ment of dlmnn- to flilfnffrt tm nn Imnnrtnnt
one It is stated that about $1,500,000 went
to that point from her today. The exigencies
of the corner In the July option In corn are
supposed to account tor this heavy movement.
The failure to advance the Louisville & Nash
ville dividend rate to a 6 per cent basis was a
disappointment to some speculators who had
acted on "tips," but there was no general ex
pectation of any advance. The very heavy
Government disbursements are favoring the
money market. The prolonged advance In. Mis
souri Pacific made the weighty reailxtng In
that stock particularly heavy, and the bears
made a renewed attack on It, and also on West
ern Union and Sugar, the former on the termi
nation of contracts with the Pennsylvala road,
and the latter on the large capital embarking
in it. Amalgamated Copper was sold on ac
count of the declining tendency of raw copper.
The bond market was rather quiet and ir
regular. Total sales, par value, $3,275,000.
United States bonds unchanged on the last call.

The forced closing out of Kaffirs was con
tinued this morning, and the market looked
panicky at first. South African magnates
came to the rescue and supported their special
ties. AH of a sudden there was a swng of
the pendulum, and the frightened bears has
tened to cover in active shares like East Rand

RAJX BOOMS WHEAT.
Ilnsli of Sbortit to Cover Further
Helps Prices.
CHICAGO, July 0. Wheat opened active and
strong, prices being nearly lc above yesterday's
Close. Excessive and general rains throughout
the country was the exciting factor. There
was a good commission-house buying for coun
try account, local Interests were bullish and
bought freely, while shorts fell over them
selves In an endeavor lo get to cover. Brad
street's report that the world's stock for the
Week had decreased over 8,000.000 bushels was
ateo a strengthening feature. Fears of a
change In sentiment over night, should the
weather be favorable, caused somb realizing
toward the close. September opened c to
c higher, at 7373c, and on active de
mand advanced to 7474c. but weakened
later on heavy realizing, and Closed c higher,
at 73S73)ic.
Trade In July corn was practically at a
standstill, shorts apparently sharing for a
better opening, and the bull crowd elmply
awaiting developments. The opening figure on
July was lc below yesterday's close, at Sc.
and, although there was eome grain offered at
SSc, Scarcely any was bid In. The close was
at the opening figure. September closed with
a gain of c, at 6161c
Oats were excited with the new July selling
to 51c. or nearly 5c higher than yesterday'
close, and the more distant futures also ad
vanced sharply. Heavy rains were responsible
for the upward trend. September closed strong
and lc higher, at 34c

Versatility of nn Important- Memoer
ot New York's Syrian Qnnrter.
New York Evening Post.
His first name is Mohammed. He Is an
acrobat, horseman and sword player by
training-, but a candy-ma"ker by choice.
One season he Is a circus star, and an
other he Is the chief attraction in a sea
side museum. Occasionally he is tne Idol
Of the small boy in a vaudeville theater;
but no matter what the engagement, the
rest of the year he can be found In the
Syrian quarter of New York attending to
his trade. It takes considerable skill to
make sweetmeats good enough to receive
the approval of Arabs, and Mohammed
belongs to a family which for long gen
erations has held a high reputation in
this field of domestic Industry. His chief
productions are like the common confec
tions known as Turkish paste. The llke
nes? Is, however, superficial. American
Turkish piste Is made of glucose, starch
and a little flavoring, but the Arab con
fections contain fine gums, white flour
and all sorts of fruits and fruit Juices.
One of them will bear comparison with
what 13 known as fruit bar, so far as the
variety of the nuts and other fruits is
concerned, but Instead of being hard It
Is soft and yielding, the connecting ma
terial being a sweet and pleasant gluti
nous substance, whose manufacture is a
secret known only to Mohammed.
He makes odd little cakes, some of
which are sweet and mottled with thin
pieces of dates, figs and almonds. Others
are half-bitter, and seem to contain
sprigs of parsley, dashes of lemon and
other acid and sub-acid vegetables. Nic
est 6f all are the crisp circles which are
found In every Arabian and Egyptian
bazaar. They are made of coarse flour
and egg, a little salt and sugar, and fine
ly minced boiled vegetables. The effect
of th'e mixture 13 pleasant to both eye
and palate. The crust is a golden brown
mottled with brownish green, and the
Interior Is white and gold speckled with
vary!ng tints of green. The flavor of the
vegetables and the spices Impregnates
every atom and makes the cake an ad
mirable appetizer. Queerest of all Is a
confection which looks like twisted old
fashioned molasses candy, but is really
a cake, being made out of hard wheat
with a little .- .veetenlng. It Is fried In
boiling fat like crullers, and when thor
oughly cooked Is a3 crisp and dry as a
Saratoga chip. Far off In Asia these
confections are comparatively cheap, but
In the metropolis they cost more than the
average goods in bakeries.
New Jersey has ranked sixth In valuo
of manufactured products for 40 years.
Tho wage-earners of the state are 12.8
per cent of the total population, and
among them are 50,000 women and 8000
children.
