18 STILL UNSETTLED
Early Gains in Stocks Are
Soon Dissipated,
CROP, REPORTS. MAIN FACTOR
GralB-Carryinff Roads Led im the
"Wealcness and Others De
clined la Sym
pathy. NEW YORK, July 2S. The stock market this
rooming showed the continuing; effect of the
clearing of the atmosphere which resulted from
yesterday's and Friday's failures and the mar
ket became Quite generally strong. But the
brighter sentiment over the outlook did not
hold Its fjll force throughout the day. There
was a rather pronounced reaction at the last
which wiped out the most Important part o
the day's gains and took a few of the grain
carriers a point or more below last night. Hew
York. Central was the conspicuous leader In
the advance, rising at one time 2 over last
aleht on buying reputed to be of the best
character. The sentimental effect on the mar
ket of the buying of this stock and of Pennsyl
vania and the affiliated stocks, as well as of the
coalers and the high-grade railroad stocks was
considerable. Atchison suffered most acutely
amongst the market leaders and its drop to
1 below last night upset the late market and
led the whole list downward.
The grain carriers were not standing at any
time, and were presumably affected by reports
of hot winds In the corn belt and by the
"Weather Bureau's weekly bulletin on corn and
Spring wheat. Reports of crop -damage were
reinforced by the upward movement of prices
In the grain markets and the' development of
profit-taking In those markets' did not save
stocks from the late reaction. The Improved
sentiment this morning was largely due to the
understanding that tho closing out of hypothec
cated securities for loans for both the failed
firms and for others under pressure for pay
xnent of loans on collateral for which the mar
ket- is not active, was to be suspended for the
present to await a more favorable market. Late
In the day there were Indications of a resump
tion of. selling out of collateral in some loans.
The buying through commission bouses was
reported to be better than for many weeks and
was hopefully regarded. But this buying did
not follow the market upwards. There was
evidence of a purpose to drive in the beare
n the calling in of stocks loaned for deliver'
on short contracts, and In the character of some
of the rumors which were set afloat. Thete
was a report of a private settlement between
the Union Pacific Interests of last week's failed
flrmi, looking to taking over of large hold
ings of Southern Pacific and the resumption
of business by the firm. This was denied when
the Union Pacific directors assembled to declare
tho regular dividends. Toledo, St. Louis &
Western was reported to have passed to Grand
Trunk control. An offer of 60 to Evansvllle
& Terre Haute was alleged to have been made
by an anonymous bidder. Colorado Fuel was
eaid to have acquired the Utah Iron Company,
and Its price shot up nearly a dozen points.
The other stories were effective in a varying
degree in causing sharp bidding for stocks,
The renewal of the steel billet pool seemed
to be hopefully regarded amongst iron and
steel company shareholders and stocks of that
group were quite generally strong. The time
money market was reported appreciably hlghe:
and some long-time loans were reported to have
been made below 6 per cent. Sanguine hopes
were expressed or a strong bank statement on
next Saturday. But the obvious fact was that
the demand from the shorts was growing satis-
fled and that the investment demand was not
.following the advance in prices. When trad
ers attempted to take profits on the day's, rise
the market .gave way and closed unsettled and

CLEARED THE ATMOSPHERE.
Severe Liquidation Has. Had a Good
Effect, Cheeking- Overspecnlatlon.
NEW TORK. July 23. While still averse to
placing their opinions on record, the conserv
ative banking interests of this city practically
agree that the events of the past fortnight
have done much to clear the atmosphere. A
few express further apprehension as to the
market's action, and there are intimations in
other quarter of a money stringency when
crop-moving time comes
jacoD -n. scnio, oi Auan, ixxa at w., saia
today:
So confident am I that all serious danger
Is at an end that I Tiave arranged to leave
town tonight for a month."
A. Barton Hepburn, former Controller of
the Currency, and now vice-president of the
Chase National Bank, said:
"The country has undergone an era of great
and genuine prosperity. As is always the
case, advantage is taken of such conditions to
promote a great many securities at greatly
Inflated values.
"We have gone too far and too fast. Credit
has been too much extended. A hardening
process which subjected securities to a level
that would determine' their proper value yas
bound to come and Is now in progress through
out the country. Under this pressure, railway
shares some of them have depreciated to a
point where, as an investment, they are at
tractive. Doubtless other securities will be
subjected to pressure, receding In value until
they reach the investor's point. Later commer
cial and industrial interests of the country
will doubtless undergo a similar experience.
Those who have made mistakes financially must
suffer also. '
"General business conditions, however, are
In excellent shape, the crops are so munificent
that it will be Impossible to produce anything
like a financial or commercial crisis, and peo
ple will have ample opportunity to put their
houses in order.
"The stock market has fallen 60 points with
out serious nanlc or complication, and the
business Interests of the country will have
equal opportunity to conform to the fall in
prices or to the reduction In the volume of
trade."
L N. Seligman, of J. W. Sellgman & Co.,
said:
"The severe liquidation has imparted a feel
ing of safety and security, not only among
the careful banking interests, but with the
prudent and sensible public Conditions which
brought about the liquidation resulted simply
from over-speculation. Fully $10,000,000 to
$20,000,000 of European capital has been sent
here for Investment within tne past week. I
can say that In case there should be any
squeeze during the next two months, the Treas
ury Department will offer prompt relief to le
gitimate financial interests.'

PORTLAND MARKETS.
Grain, Flour, Feed, Etc
There Is very little business In wheat, farm
ers showing unusually bullish views, which
prevents business being done on an export
baeis. Old wheat is very scarce, and San
Francisco millers are paying a high premium
over export values. New Walla Walla Is nomi
nal at about 72 cents, and new bluestem about
76 cents. Old wheat will comrfiand a premium
of about 6 cents per bushel. The barley market
is very strong, in sympathy with San Fran
cisco markets, and some fancy prices are re
ported paid up tho country. Flour Is firm.
but no advances are noted.

OREGON CROP REPORT.
"Weather Has Been Very Favorable
for Filling: and Ripening Grata.
The United States Department of Agricul
ture Climate and Crop Bulletin ot the Weather
Bureau, Oregon section, for the week ending
Monday, July 27. Is as follows:
-j.no xore pan or tne weeic was warm and
showery, while the latter part was clear and
cool, especially at night. The showers were
not heavy enough to be of benefit to. corn and
pastures, and In some of the coast counties they
interfered with haying. The hay harvest Is
now well advanced, and In the southern sec
tions many farmers have finished cutting their
second crop of alfalfa. The hay crop, as a
whole, will be less than last year, and It will
fall slightly below the average for the last
ten years. Pasture on the ranges Is drying up,
but it continues good In tne mountains.
The weather has been very favorable for
filling and ripening grain. The heads are of
good size and the berry Is plump, but the
stand Is thin, and consequently the yields are
falling below the average. The grain harvest
has become general In the Columbia River
Valley and lh southern sections, and well
started in the Willamette Valley. Oats prom
ise better yields than either wheat or barley.
The cloudy weather during the fore part of
the week caused lice to Increase In the hop
yards, and some spraying has been done. Hops
-continue thrifty, and no serious damage from
vermin has yet occurred. The crop Is not so
far advanced as usual at this season of the
year, and some fears are entertained that It
will not mature be forest he Fall rains begin.
Potatoes and gardens -artf" ddlng finely, but
the nights have been too cool tor corn to maks
rapid growth, and this crop now needs rain.
Field onions are reported to be generally in
good condition, although la a tew places they
are affected by blight.
A short crop of peaches Is being marketed.
and plums are beginning to ripen. Prunes
and pears continue to make excellent progress,
and these crops promise well. Apples are un
even, and an average crop Is not expected
During the past week high winds in the Grand
Rondo Valley have caused considerable green
fruit to drop.

ACTIVE, BUT LOWER,
Erratic- Market In Wneat aad Cora,
With Slight Losses Scored.
CHICAGO, July 2S. Trading In wheat was
active at the beginning of the session and
opening prices were strong, with September
V4?V4c higher at 7834 to 7854c. There were a
good many buying orders to be filled at the
opening and under this demand the market
was strong the first half hour, and September
sold at 76V'c. but the better prices brought
out many -jelling orders from commission houses
and there was also plenty of general liqui
dation which soon started prices on the down
grade. Later In the session the selling move
ment was increased under the Influence of the
Increase of 29,000 bushels in the world's vis
ible and also by the bearish construction put on
the weekly Government crop report, and In
consequence the market ruled quite weak.
After selling down to 77?ic. September rallied
slightly and closed at 77877Vic, a loss of Vi
QXc.
There was a large volume of trade In corn.
and although opening prices were strong, the
advance was not maintained, owing to heavy
realizing, by prominent operators.
Private reports of rain In Kansas, with pre
dictions of further precipitation for that state.
together with the rather bearish tone ot the
weekly Government crop report, were partly
responsible for the selling movement. Late In
the day the selling became more pronounced
and the close was at the bottom, September
being HSHc lower at 52Vic. after ranging
between 52 Vi and 53 vie
Although Arm. In sympathy with other
grains, heavy receipts, good grading and Im
proved crop prospects caused weakness in
oats late 'n the day, and lower prices pre
ailed the remainder of the session.
After iu111nr hetwren and 34e. Sentemher
oats closed uUc lower at 33V&C
Good buying by shorts caused strength In
provisions at the opening, with general ad
vances in all products. The strength in grains
and the smaller hog receipts were early influ
ences. Realizing sales caused a loss of part
of the gain. The close was firm, with Sep
tember pork up 12V&C at $13.62Vi: September
lard was 10$12Vic higher at $7.62U7.65, and

Hop
SALEM. Or.. July 28. Two weeks ago the
hop situation was completely In the hands of
the crowers of Oregon, who naa pooieo. neariy
all of the nnsold hops, amounting to over 3000
bales, and the situation had simmered down
to a waitimr same between the growers ana
the brewers, with chances in favor of the
rain-era. Recently, however, a break has Been
made In the ranks ot the growers, ana several
hundred bales have been sold, consigned and
shipped out of the state, greatly weakening
the position ot the growers. The Hopgrowers'
Association is still holding together, however.
and Secretary Wlnstanley U putting forth hta
best efforts to rally them to a final stana,
and with this object in view he has issued the
following circular letter to all the members of
the association.
"Tho combination of brewers and dealers
has succeeded In getting possession of the
hop market and manipulating it to their own
interest. They have succeeded' only because of
the credulity of the growers. The dealers have
stuffed the papers with lies and false repre
sentatlona in order to stampede the growers.
A few days ago every dealer in town told tho
growers 'the brewers did not need any more
hops: they are well supplied. Today, July
24, every man has an order, and is do!n.t his
best to cause the grower to sell his holdings.
If all growers would hold their hops, there Is
no question about the result. There has not
been a year since laic wnen growers couia
control the market so well as this year. Never
before were stocks so low as they are at this
time. Brewers must have these hops to mix
with the new crop. In order, to make beer of
a certain quality. Regarding the coming
crop there are four chances out of five for a
shortage. Oregon, 70,000; fcatirornla, 43.000
Washington 32.000; New York state. 40.000
total. 185,000 bales.
The United States will need for consump
tlon 200,000 bales for the year 1904. Engtand
has a doubtful crop of 400,000 hundredweight,
and requires for home use 800,000 hundred
weight. Germany's crop Is estimated at 25 per
cent less than last year, and there Is not a
crop In the world that Is not In great danger
from lice, which is sure to reduce this est!
mate. I respectfully submit this letter to the
hopgrowers and sincerely hope they will use
It for their own profR."
