The grocery trade has been agitated during the -week by the news from Hawaii of an In crease In the price of raw sugar In the Islands from SH to 3 11-10 cents a pound, due to a greater demand for sugar because the canning season Is at hand, and also to the report that sugar-raisers of Europe will form a selling combine, all sugars to be sold by one firm. Tae result Is a marked strengthening of the situation on the Coast, and the belief Is gen iral that something is going to happen In the near future. The canned corn market Is also In ft stats of excitement. Following the ad van ca la spot standard "Western came private advlcee yesterday from the largest corn dis trict In Iowa that wind and hall had de stroyed the growing crop. This looks very much like short deliveries from packers, The produce trade during the week has been active, with large arrivals of California and early Oregon fruits. Farm1 produce has not moved so freely. Wheat has ruled aulot, as the country has been' pretty well cleaned up. The hop market Is weaker on the Gov eminent report of a large crop in this state. Much business is passing in wool and at "bet ter figures than a week ago, WHEAT The market Is almost at a stand still so far as old wheat is concerned. Sup- piles in the country are meager and business is at a low ebb. The few transactions re ported are .for milling account. Some future business is being done in new wheat, but the aggregate of trading is small. Harvesting is under way in the wheat belt, and the results generally surpass early expectations. ThQ Washington weekly crop bulletin said "The week was favorable for grain of all kinds. Winter wheat is ripening and cutting has ' begun on the lower and lighter lands. The harvesting of Winter wheat will be gen oral during this coming week. Spring wheat has imprpved under the favorable weather. and U beading out nicely. There has been no injury from hot winds during ths past three Weeks." The Idaho weekly crop report says: "Some wheat and rye have been harvested; some light grain has been cut for hay; the condition of grain is somewhat uneven, but the general crop is thought to be equal to the average." The Oregon weekly crop bulletin said: "Spring and Fall wheat continue to All and ripen nicely; tho heads are full and the berry Is plump, and if it were not for the stand being thin the crop would be up to the average. Harvesting will become general this week." Discussing European crop conditions and markets, J. W. Hush, of London, writes in the Northwestern Miller of July 13: Since June 10 we have had hot, forcing weather, which has probably come Just in the nick of time to save the wheat crop from more or leu serious disaster in both this country and France. On the other hand, heavy rains have seriously prejudiced the ops, now about ripe, in Roumanla and parts of South Russia. Our market, however, never could withstand 'the effects of hot forcing weather, and it Is more prone to weakness in the face of the decline in the American markets this week, where we looked for strength owing to the small stocks on hand and the reported critical condition of the Spring wheat crop, owing to the lack of rain. Nevertheless, it Is -tolerably apparent that speculative buyers on this side are quite de termlned to wait for more definite news re garding the American crop before operating at all freely- There are many who believe that the next few weeks will show how seri ously lnjure4 the French wheat crop Is, in splto of tho present more flattering reports; and there are also many who still expect that thfc- American Winter wheat crop, especially in the Southwest and Illinois, will not come up to expectations, and that little. If any. more wheat will be grown this year on the American Continent than last year. Meanwhile, with the exception of Russia, which must have large stocks of old wheat on band, although they are not visible in the ports, the offers are very scanty. Argen tina has probably only about 2,000.000 auartera left to snip to Europe during the next six months, and the quantity afloat from the Pa cific Coast lor the United Kingdom is only au.uw quarters against 1,480,000 last year. India, however, has a big surplus and has r already .shipped, since April 1, 353,000 quar ters, against 567.000 last year. As I have frequently pointed out In these letters, tne present seasons European re quirements havexeeeded all expectations and will exceed any year's Imports, even that of 1697-180&. the previous record year. It need not be deduced from this, however, that the demand is overtaking the production of wheat In a general sense; such a condition of things would, of course, result in a much higher level or prices man at present obtains, or has obtained for some years. Circumstances, such as dear potatoes and a large proportion of unsuitable wheat In Europe the past season. have helped to bring about the present state of affairs. The actual Imports in the ten months ended May 31 in ten principal countries compare as follows for the last three years: 1002-03, 1001-02, 1000-01, qrs. qrs. qrs. .20.533,000 10.132.000 10.705.000 . 1.310.000 763,000 676.000 , 0.3C2.000 S. 160.000 3,735.000 United King.

The Imports in June and July have been yen large, and tho total for the whole season will doubtless exceed 55,000,000 quarters, while non-European countries, such as China, the Brazils. Africa, Australasia, West Indies, etc, will have received about 8,000,000 quar ters, thus forming a grand total of 63,000,000 quarters, or over 1,200,000 quarters per week. Bearing in mind that France and Germany will next season require more than In the present season, and maktRg allowance for Australasia being at least self-supporting next year. It seems to me quite probable that the requirements of thajmportlng countries in the coming season will be fully as large as in the present one, in which case he who adopts the bear tack on a 725,000.000 bushel American crop may be scrry for his acts. FLOUR, FEED, ETC. The outlook for the export flour trade is particularly bright. Bus-, lness is good and would be heavy, but for the lack of supplies The. demand Xrom China and Japan is heavy and orders are too large to be filled. As it is. steamers sailing from Portland this month and next will go out with full cargoes. The -local flour trade- is steady at unchanged prices. Mill feeds of all kinds ait firm and will be so for the next month. Barley is also strongly held, but oats are only steady. Hay also weakened under heavy receipts of new hay in the past weefc, but old timothy is Arm at the moment. The tendency in "the hay jnarket is downward. HOPS No change has taken place In the local bop market during the week. The tone is easy, and a number of sales have been made at 15 cents. The Journal of Commerce of July 17 reported the New York market as dragging. That paper said: Private advices received from the Coast con tinued to report "favorable prospects for the crop In Oregon and Washington, with no changes in the outlook In California. The tone of the market was unsettled; sales were reported of prime to choice Oregons, presum ably to the extent of 300 bales, at 15 to it4 cents. These purchases. It was reported, were for export to London. Some of tho trade, however, claimed that this buying for London must oe speculative, as their cable advtevs received" from the English market reported a slow condition of business, with prices on a basis which did not warrant the prices paid on tne coast. California, It was stated, of fered the ordinary and medium grades of Sac- ramentos at 13 and 14 cents, and the bette grades of Russian Rivers and Sonomas at 15 to aO cents. The Waterville Times of July 14 said 'of crop conditions in New York: It is generally admitted that thora will be a short crop of hops throughout Central New York the largest estimates not being over uu.uw oaies. aaras in tne main iook. wen. but thero is such a great difference in the growth and vigor of tho vine. In some there Is growth enough to promise a fair yield un less something unforseen occurs, but there are so many yards that have such light growth that it is not possible for them to produce much of a crop. The newest yards which failed to get deeply rooted before the dry spell and the very oldest and more worn-out yards seem to be the poorest this yeaiy WOOL Tho wool market is active and strong. Some big transactions are under way at higher prices, and when they are consum mated, not much wool will be left in the country in first hands. As was reported in the dispatches, the Boston wool market dur lng the week was unusually active, but not much business was done there In the Oregon product. The American Wool and Cotton Re porter of the 16th Inst, quoted Oregon wools at Eastern seaboard markets: Eastern staple. 1618c; Eastern Oregon choice clothing, 140 15c; Eastern Oregon average, 18ffil4e; Eastern Oregon heavy. 12gl3c; Valley Oregon No. I, 10820c; do No.. 1020c; do No. 8, 1819c; valley Oregon lambs, 16$17c While most of the pool sales In the North west resulted satisfactorily to growers, such was evidently not the case at Elgin, accord lng to tho Recorder, which says: The wool, sale here last week was a dismal failure, from .the producers' standpoint, at least. Less money was offered than the grower couiq nave sold for prior to placing bis wool in the warehouses here. Had "he sold when the buyers visited Wallowa County he would have saved warehouse rhurrn nnrf incran,v which will now amount to over $2 per ton. What the outcome will eventually bo remains to be seen, but it now looks as if the grower who refused to pool his wool and sold on the mar ket will be the one to pocket the most profits this year. Those in the pool may come out all right, but from present Indications the price of wool will have to come up quite & little ir they realize as much as they could nave soia for individually, several days since. and it now looks as if the pooling business will De a thing of the past so far as a mn, Jority of the Wallowa County woolgrowers are concerned. rnvvuvti Another exceptionally active week has kept the fruit and vegetable men busy. Watermelons are the center of attrae, tion just now, and several carloads reach Front street dally. The practice of selling melons by weight meets with general favor among Jobbers. The melon market, on the whole. Is very firm, as a growers conblne has been formed in California to hold prices on a steadier basis. Plums, apples, . pears and peaches are arriving freely from the South ern state, but of the latter only Crawfords find favor, as early Oregon clings are becom ing plentiful. Other fruits of all kinds are in good supply. Vegetables as a rule are steadily quoted. The market for farm produce continues even and without feature. The demand - for poul try is not so strong as in the earlier part of the month, but prices ore fairly well main talned. Receipts of eggs at present are'equal to tho demand and the same Is true of butter, GROCERIES, MEATS, ETC As before noted, the sugar and canned corn markets are exceedingly strong. Otbej staples remain practically t last quoted. Prices on new to matoes will ba announced shortly. Live and dressed meats are moderately act ive. Dressed veal , and hogs are quoted Arm and others steady. Eork products are as quoted a week ago.

Rumors of Financial DlflBcaltles Fall of Corroboration Increase la Erie's Dividend Rate. NEW YORK. July 22. The price- level of se curities made some recovery . today in an Ir regular market, une opening rue met re newed selling, especially In the United States Steel stocks, which caused a wavering in the whole list. With a relaxation of the urgent pressure upon theje stocks, the market took on a better tone and started more steadily upwards. There were occasional slight re actions, but trading fell away to nominal pro portions at the recessions, within the last hour of the session. At the time the market paused for a time and then turned downwards on a growing volume of selling and closed easy. The principal active stocks had been lifted from 2 to 3 points over last night, and the reaction left them, not more than half of the extreme gains. The upward movement of prices was accom panied by as llttlo news as the recent severe declines, but the pressure to sell was not felt and a partial rebound was normal. The de mand from tho shorts was an Important cle ment in the buying, as a matter of course, after so violent a decline as that which has been occurring. No other Inducement to cover shorts was needed than the failure to dis lodge stocks with the recent customary ease. The alarming rumors of financial difficulties, which were numerous yesterday, tailed of cor roboration today, and this formed a negative Influence on the buying side of the market. Some of the commission houses profess to have some' buying orders of an Investment character. These were not In large amounts and they did not follow the roarlSt far on any advances. The rise In the dividend rate on Erie first preferred from 1 to a 4 per cent basis, made Itself felt to some extent on the market. Many past hopes of dividend Increases raised by the large surplus earnings reported by various railroad companies, have been held In abeyance since the period of putting sur plus forcings back into Improvements began. Some of the high prices of last year In stocks were based upon probable dividend increases. which were confidently counted, upon, and comparatively few of which were realized. Tho Erie Increase Is the first Incident to revlV any hope-that some of these expectations may be realized later. In spite of the prevalent competition lor ready funds among railroad corporations. The early strength in the grain market was logically against stocks, but It was ignored, and the late reaction In grain failed equally to hold stocks at the top level. There was a notable falling- off In the number of Inactive stocks to chow wide declines on the market ing of small blocks Colorado Fuel preferred was tho only notable example. 100 shares of that stock selling 2 points under the last pre ceding sale. The active bond Issues were firmer, butthe market was higher. Total sales, par valut, $2,175,000. United States bonds were all un changed on the last call. STOCKS.

Sep tember was a shade lower to a shade higher at 76407&Hc, and sold, up quickly to 76ftc On the advance, however, pit traders sold freely and support was lacking. The result was an easing off In prices, which was fur thered later In the market by the Unloading of long lines and by selling orders from St. Louis. September went down to 75c, where commission houses checked the decline and carried' the price back to 75Hg754c. the clos. lng figures being at 7575"4c. Trade was active and offerings of good volume There was a good country and commission house demand for corn early on increasing reports of uneven crop and the market showed strength. The break in wheat later brought out liberal offerings, and the advance was poon lost. September closed steady with the loss of He at 40"4c Trade In oats was largely local and prices were somewhat better. Continued support by local bulls on unfavorable crop advices saved the market from a severe break and the close was at a gain of c for September, at 22H 032c Provisions were strong, due to fair local buying and an absence of outside liquidation, together with a better feeling in the hog mar ket.
