I The large falling off in exports of hops from
ustro-Hungary In 1902. according to Consul
'nttH, was due chletly to the small crops In
tat country, while at the Mime time Germany
luced very large crops and required but a
nail quantity of Au&tro-IIungarlan hops.
(The foreign figures on the world's crop agree
lory well with the views accepted In this coun-
, except that the American yield Is placed
low, as fully 30.000.000 pounds were raised
the United States. Estimates of the hop
Induction of 1903 indicate u good increase over
ist year's yield. The figures, as closely as
hey can be etated at this time, follow:
Pounds.

Allowing for tho error In. the American flg-
lire? before quoted, it will be . Been that the
production this year will be 8.460.000 pounds
larger than last year, but 20,000,0u0 pounds
belaw the output of 1901. It may be stated
that tho figures from Australasia and "other
bountrles" have no bearing on the .world's
narkcts, as tho hops there raised are con
sumed ".orally and do not come Into competl-
itlon with those of the great hop countries.
Idaho Crop Report.
Tho Idaho weekly crop bulletin says in part:
I Harvest cf small grain Is practically com
plete iti the western portion of the State, and
Is rrogresslng rapidly elsowhere. Itcports in
dicate that the crop is very uneven, but that
in general It will be about average: the qual
ity is good; there is soma complaint of darn-
Inge l- halL
Se-cnd crop clover is maturing in favored
I sections, except where water Is falling, second
crop alfalfa is yielding well; third crop alfalfa
is growing rapidly: much of the wild hay
crop has been harvested. Local rains have
bencfltcd ranges In southeastern districts; else
where the range is falling rapidly.
notwithstanding the faot that ranges are
rapidly falling, stock Is thriving in most sec
tions, and is in good condition for shipment;
in a few localities, however, cattle are suffer
ing, and in some Instances are leaving the hills
and causing trouble by breaking into fields and
damaging growing crops.
"Wheat Snlen nt Moro,
MORO. Or.. Aug. 27. (Special.) Seventy-flvo
cents a bushel was twld Jere for bluestem
wheat. 70c for club. The wheat crop turned
out rauc.li better than expected. Barley and
oats have done well. X. W. Thompton raised
JO bushclfe of oats to the acre on tome land
otvjied by the Eastern Oregon Land Company.
HAKVKST NEARLY EXDED.
lllckreall Farmers 1'rcjinrlnfr to Sow
Pall Grain.
RICKREALL, Or.. Aug. 27. (Special.) By
the end of the present week "the grain harvest
will be over and farmers will begin active
preparations for the sowing of fall grain. The
crop of 1903 has been an excellent one. as far
as this part of Tolk County is concerned, and
the money realized from the sale of products,
has moro than recompensed the farmers for the
poor returns of recent years. Although no record-breaking
yteMs are reported, the general
average of grain has run higher than that of
any year since 1890. J. J. Huron, who has
farmed in this vicinity for a number of years,
reports a. yield of W) bushels per acre on 22
a -res of spring eats, and on average of 25
bushels per acre on fall wheat. Man farmers
repart average yields of 25 bushels per acre for
-a beat and 35 bushels for oats, while others re
port an average of 30 bushels for wheat. Near
ly u".l of the grain that has been threshed is
ext-'.Knt in quality. The Rlckreall Milling
rar.y Is paying 75c per bushel for wheat.
FIRST HOP SIUP3IENT.
Thirty-live Utile of 1003 Crop Leaves
lJnjrene.
SALEM, r, Aug. 27. (Special.) The first
sh!,-mer.t 21 OS hops wns made today when
Joseph Harris, of this city, agent for Be&Ja
c:a Schwartx & Son, of New Tort, shipped
the Sweeda crjp of 35 bates from Eugene.
The h-i are of the Fuggles variety and well
rrjitjred They are frre from mold and bright
a- 1 oean. Tho price was 22 cents, which Is
t"- tp ot the market for any variety. Fuggtes
t'pi do not ordinarily bring as good a price
as tho common cluster hops, but in this case
tl-e 1 : I'rought n gond price, because they
were rrady for shtpment early. Fttggles hops
mature from one to two wfcs earlier than
tha Erglfsh clusters. There are only a few
growers in the state who raise this variety.
The ricking season this year will he a long
one, f :r many growers wai begin early so as
to lessen the danger of Injury from meW.
These growers wU Sutoh picking about tho
toe others legln. and pickers who wish to
do tan work in two yards In one season.
Early ricking will also he of advantage to
the growers because tlwty find it eatUr to
secuie vl'Vers. There has been a wish to
sec -re work in the large yards where the
bops are known to be heavy, and some of the
smaller growers have found it impossible to
engage workers, even when 50 cents a box
wo offered Only by beginning early and
finishing before the more dcslrablo yards begin
con they lndifce people to work whea-e the con
ditions are unfavorable. Owners of yards
bearing good crops have bad no difficulty thus
far la securing pickers.
Hop Pool a. Success.
WOODBURN. Or.. Aug. 27. Word baa Just
been received hsre from M. H. Durst, who
baa charge of the Oregon 3000-bal bop pod.
Mr. Durst wires that be has disposed of 500
bales at a figure that will aet the growers 22
cents per pound. This is .xaore than the pro
ducer? anticipated, baring been Informed by
dealers only last week that they would receive
no more than the money already paid, by Mr.
Durst, who advanced between 16 and 1714 cents
per round. The success of Mr. Durst is an
entering wedge or another pool tills season.
Notwithstanding the rains, bops la this sec
tion are .showing up fairly well. Some yards
report a little ir-old. "While pickers have been
arriving on every train, there still seems to be
a shortage.
"Weather Conditions Better.
INDEPENDENCE. Or.. Aug. 27. (Special.)
The weather cleared up last night, and the
bop and grain crops will be nearly up to tho
average. Wherever mold has made its appear
ance the owners of these yards are making
preparations to pick immediately. Within the
next four or five days, at least, five yards will
bo picking around here. Most of the growers
state that their hops received practically no
damage from the rain, but reports are brought
la that a few of the yards nave, considerable
mold. The thrtchlnc outfits have all gone to
work again, and there waa no damage dons
to the grain in this section from the rain.
Washington. Crop Report.
The Washlngtoa weekly crop bulletin says
in part:
Winter wheat cutting is finished, generally,
and threshing is well under way. Spring wheat
cutting is progressing finely; in 6ome local
ities it is half done, in others not more than
oue-fourth is cot. Although the hot winds
may have burnt late wheat & triflo in gen
eral, it was too far advanced to be injured.
The yield, as far as may be Judged from what
threshing has been d&ne. has proven better
than was expected. It is from two-thirds to
three-fourths of aa average crop, and of su
perior quality. In the western iart of Doug
las. County, where the wheat lfl better than
in the eastern part, there will bo a good ave
rage crop. Cutting began a week ago. Spok
ane County was earlier than tho other coun
ties this year, and shows better results. In
Walla Walla County the harvest Is about one
half completed.
Potatoes and garden vegetables have dona
splendidly, although of late it has become
rather too dry for them. The lack of rain is
beginning to tell on pastures, which ore be
coming dry and short. Some plowing has al
ready been done, although the ground is too
dry for It. Ilain at present time, although
it would be beneficial to fruit, late vegetables
and pastures, would interfere with harvest
ing and cause serious damage.
Peaches are a very good crop this season
in the irrigated districts, and pears are a
heavy crop. Melons have done unusually
well. Over the state in general apples will
not be a heavy crop, but pear and plum trees
are heavily loaded. Prunes are beginning to
ripen.

JLIVESTOCiC MARKETS.
Receipts and Ruling; Prices at Fort-
land Union Stockyards.
It was a quiet day at the Portland Union
Livestock Yards yesterday. The only receipts
were five horses. Quotations of stock were un
changed. The following prices were quoted at
the yards:
CATTLE Best steers. $3.75; medium, $32
3.50; cows. J2.50gr2.75.
HOGS Heavy (175 pounds and up), $6.25;
medium fat hogs. $5.5050.
SHEEP Best wethers, $2.75; mixed sheep.
$2.50.
Interior Cattle Sales.
Advices from Pendleton say that J. C Loner-
gaa will ship eight cars, or about 200 head, of
fat cattle to Seattle on Friday next. The ship
ment was bought In the country at the head
of McKay Creek, and all of the cattle are in
good condition and young. Mr. Lonergaa re
ports that there are plenty of cattle on the
market, and that the price has fallen la tho
last two weeks. The buyers are now offering
$2.50 per 100 for .cows, which is lower than the
market has been for several years. Steers are
selling for $3.50. which is lower than the price
at this time last year, when the sold for $3.65
and 53.75.
J. a Mitchell, a cattle buyer of Gazelle. Cal.
has contracted for the purchase of tho fat beef
cattle to be turned off by the stockmen from
their ranges south and cast of Ashland this
Fall. The heaviest growers are the Barrons.
Nells and Barnaburgsf and with the smaller
growers there will be a total of probably 1200
bead to go to market under this contract. De
livery will begin at Ashland about September
10, and Mr. Mitchell will ship direct to Oak
land. CaL The price to be paid for top steers
this season is 3Hc gross, the same as last
Fall, but the market for fat cows and culled
steers, for which Mr. Mitchell last year paid
314c also, is down and the growers of that sec
tion will this year get only 3c for this grade of
beef cattle.

BliSMALLEST INTHREE YEARS
LITTLE INTEREST IX STOCK DEAL
ING AT .NEW YORK.
Trading" hy Professionals Makes Up
the Entire Market Easier Tens
In Time Money.
NEW YORK. Aug. 27. Dealings la stocks
were smaller today than for more than three
years past, the aggregate oeaiings reocniag
only about 150.000 shares. Trading by profes
sionals made up the entire market. They at
tempted la the early dealings to continue yes
terday's downward course, and succeeded to
the extent of a point in a few prominent
stocks. Covering of shorts before the end of
the day caused a partial recovery of the de
clines, and the market closed dull aad heavy.
and not appreciably changed from last night's
level. The dwindling Interest la the yacht races
did not result la an)- Increased attention to the
stock market, and many of the members who
came down this morning did not stay the day
out.
Tho preliminary annual statement of Erie.
showing nearly 4 per cent earned oa tho com
mon stock, accorded closely with expectations
and resulted in profit-taking soles, which car
ried the price at one time a point under last
night. Disappointment over this movement
was reflected in depression at other points In
the market. News of the murder of a United
States Vlce-Coniut In Turkey was assigned as
the motive for some selling here for London
account, but the incident awakened HtQe ap
prehension in our own market, where it was
assumed that the Turkish goernment would
make all the reparation demanded. The day's
weather map was regarded as unfavorble for
grains. Some selling orders attributed to Phil
adelphia account were commonly supposed to
be due to the exigencies of the coming reor
ganization of the Consolidated Lake Superior
Company. The trade reports in iron and steel
were distinctly more cheerful and indicated a
growing demand at the concessions now "ruling.
Foreign banking houses continued to make
loans here. In spite of the large withdrawals
today of gold from the Bonk of England. This
hod the effect of causing a somewhat easier
tone in the time money market. No large in
terior demand for currency is yet evident,
while la the week ending August 30 of last
year there were large transfers both to New
Orleans and to Chicago. Previous to that week
last year there had been the usual assurances
that Western bank reserves were so large that
a small requirement of Eastern reserves was
probable. But for the Week ending August 30,
New York bank reserves declined $3,003,400.
September C there was an additional sblnkage
of JS.795.SO0. On September 13 the decrease
was $7,039,200. and on September 20 a further
decrease of $7,331,700. with a deficit below the
legal reserve of $1,842,050. This occurred not
withstanding a loon contraction from August
30 to September 20 of more than $22,000,000.
The severe experience of this precedent more
than anything else has prompted the con
servative and cautious attitude of the banks
recently, and although the usual movement of
currency to the interior is now expected, the
opinion Is brewing that the banks have so
carefully provided for It that they will be able
to meet requirements without a severe strain
on the money market.
There was slightly more breadth to the bond
market than to the stock market, but it was
dull and Irregular. Total sales, par value,
$1,095,000. V
United States bonds were all unchanged on
the last call.

CHICAGO WHEAT MARKET.
Prices Strengthened on Reports of
Crop Dnmnfie.
CHICAGO. Aug. 27. Crop reports, rain dam
age in Nebraska, strong outside markets and
better cables all made for an extremely strong
wheat market, and but for the great amount
of long wheat that came out, a much larger
advance would have been recorded. September
at the opening showed an advance of 140-lsC to
04c at S10Sl4c. and selling up quickly to
814c while December touched S3c The sell
ing then became of such Influential character
that prices broke to 604 and S214c respectively.
Near the close, however, the selling ceased
and a firmer feeling became apparent, carrying
prices back to 8114c for September, a gain of
54614c and 2140S24o for December, 4054c
over yesterday's close.
Part of the early strength In corn was due
to the sympathy with wheat, uncertainty as
to thax effect of the heavy rains West, and
fears of cold weather to follow were also in
fluential factors. September finished 14c up,
at 51c; December closed at 51140314c a gain
of HSttc
Oats followed wheat, early prices being the
best. September closed 14014c up, at 374c
Decmeber closed unchanged at 3614c
Weakness In the hog market caused easier
provision prices as a rule, although there was
some early strength on short covering In lard.
Offerings were free, and the closo showed Sep
tember pork down 15c; lard 5c up. and ribs
7Vfrc lower.

grades of peaches, pears, plums, apples and
grapes moved slowly. Strictly choice offerings
sold welL Buyers ara not eager for wlno
grapes, as the season has not fairly opened.
Ripe quinces were in more demand. Water
melons had a better tone. The Santa Rosa
crop of melons is a failure. Cantaloupes and
nutmegs were In oversupply and weak. A car
load of ripe Central American bananas sold
readily. Citrus fruits were quiet and easy.
Potatoes were steady for River stock, and
weak for Salinas.. Sweets were abundant.
Onions were too plentiful and lower. Toma
toes again declined under excessive supplies.
Green corn, peas and all kinds of beans were
weaker.
Poultry was firm for choice young fowls and
large hens, otherwise easy. Another carload ot
Eastern is due. Fresh butter was dull and
unchanged, with liberal withdrawals from cold
storage. Cheese was easy. Eggs were firm.
Receipts 29.000 pounds butter, 74,000 pounds
cheese. 20,000 dozen eggs.
Fall wools are arriving slowly, mostly de
fective grades.
