Or., Sept. 22. The weather during the week
was dry and warm and all that could be de
ilred for the completion of Fall work. There
were a few frosty nights In the eastern portion
of the state, but. so far as known, they did no
serious damage.
Hoppicklng is practically completed, and the
crop has been secured in good condition. The
yields continue below average, but the quality
Is satisfactory. Harvesting is nearly finished,
and thrashing has progressed rapidly. Oats
were slightly damaged by the rains of a week
ago, but not sufficiently to affect the total
yield to any great extent. Corn is ripening
nicely; the ears are well filled and the crop, on
the whole, is doing well. Field onions have
about all been pulled, and beans are nearly
ready for harvesting. The third crops of clover
and alfalfa are being cut. Potato blight con
tinues In the coast counties, and the crop in
that section will be below average. Digging
has begun in some localities. Pasturage con
tinues good, and stock is Improving. There
has been a slight shrinkage In the milk supply
in the "Willamette Valley. The harvest of
prunes Is well under way, and the driers are

General Crop Report.
WASHINGTON. Sept. 22. The Weather Bu
reau's weekly crop bulletin:
Notwithstanding the recurrence of light to
heavy frosts generally throughout, tho corn
belt, tho corn crop has escaped injury except
In the western portions of Kansas and Ne
braska, and in the Dakotas, Minnesota and
Wisconsin. While low temperatures have pre
vented rapid ripening, especially over the West
ern district, the crop as a whole has advanced
favorably. A large part of the crop Is now
safe, but the bulk of the unmatured will re
quire from one to two weeks of favorable
weather.
The weather has been favorable for the com
pletion of Spring wheat harvest on the Paclfio
Coast. In the Dakotas and Minnesota wheat
In the shock has been injured, and threshing
delayed by wet weather.
GOOD QUALITY OP HOPS.
Kola Nels Says Crop Has Turned Out
Better Tliun Expected.
SALEM. Sept. 22. (Special.) "The quality
of the Oregon hop crop will be much better
than we expected it to be when the rains were
falling just before picking time," said Kola
Nels, a. member of the firm of Fober & Nels,
Siopgrowers and buyers. "Many yards had
moldy hops," continued Mr. Nels, "but the
mold was not so bad as we 'were afraid it
would be. I have heard many dealers express
their surprise at seeing the hops coming out sp
well. The damage will toot be near so great
as In 1897.
"Eastern dealers are waiting for samples
of our hops, and I do not expect to see a
very active market until they have had a
chance to see what the hops are like. They
know that we have some mold, and they "nat
ural'.y hang back a little until they get the
simples. I believe they will find the hops
better than they are expecting to find them,
and that they will be pleased with the Oregon
crop. Samples of the best Oregon hops will
not reach England until after October 1, and
we cannot expect orders from these before
the samples arrive. Many dealers bellove there
will be an active demand from England for
our hops, and the market depends largely
upon whether that expectation shall be real
ized. "The Review of the hop market on the com
mercial page of todUys Oregonlan gives th'j
situation exactly as It is. All the dealers
have orders at 23 cents, and a grower with an
extra choice lot of hops could get 24. cents,
though this additional cent would be p&td as
a speculation on the part of the dealer. In
other words, while his orders might authorize
purchases at only 23 cents, the dealer might
pay 21 cents In order to secure an extra choice
lot, and If the price failed to advance he
would lose the one cent a pound.
"Judging by reports that have been received
since the hops have been picked, but before
they have been baled, I would say that this
year's crop In Oregon will amount to 75,000 to
80.000 bales. About 20 per cent Of these will
be strictly choice hops; 40 per cent prime
hops and 40 per cent mediums. In some sec
tions the crop has been lighter than it was
,laut year, while in others it has been heavier.
In the north end of Marlon County, for in
stance, the crop was lighter, while It was
.heavier all through the Independence country.
As a rule, the yards that were sprayed pro
duced the best hops, though I know of yards
that were not sprayed but produced crops of
choice hops. Some yards that were sprayed
late have mold. In all the yards where spray
ing was done thoroughly, and at the right
time, there is no mold. This season has been
a lesson to the growers, and I think that here
after owners of hop yards will spray at the
proper time, and in the proper manner."

INSIGXIFI-
Liquidation in United States Steel
Comes to an End Favorable
Nevrs From the Crops.
NEW YORK, Sept. 22. There was no change
today In the narrow and professional character
of the stock market. Thef dullness and lassi
tude were somewhat accentuated by tho occur
rence of the Jewish New Tear, which caused an
absence of a part of the membership of th
exchange Tho price movement was the same
as that of yesterday, the advance coming early
and tho reaction later, with final prices show
ing insignificant gains from last night.
For the first time in a. number of days United
States Steel did not touch a new low record,
and this was taken by the leaders to Indicate
that the liquidation in that security was over.
They marked up the rrlce accordingly, and the
advance In the general market was little more
than sympathetic Late In ' the day, urgent
selling pressure developed in the United States
second mortgage bonds. They were forced
down to 73, which is lower than their pre
vious low price. This prompted the traders
to throw over the stocks they had takon early
In the day. and wiped out the day's advance,
with the result that small losses are inter
spersed with small net gains. The buying
movement of the morning was largely, concen
trated, a single house being credited with the
purchase of no less than 50,000 shares.
There was little in the news of the day to
account for the movement of prices. The col
lapse of the efforts to save the Consolidated
Lake Superior Company from bankruptcy
seemed to have been discounted, and may even
have been a factor in the recovery of United
States Steel. The removal of the prospect of
the Immediate demands upon capital to keep
this company1 afloat seemed to afford a grim
sort of relief to the spirit of dread of corpora
tion requirements which Wall street has come
to. The same spirit was responsible for the
sharp drop In New York Central on the revived
reports that the company was negotiating a
large loan to provide for Its Immediate require
ments In connection with the terminal improve
ments In this city.
The news from the crops continued favorable,
the Weather Bureau's weekly report receiving
a bearish Interpretation both as to corn and
cotton. The grangers were well supported in
consequence throughout. A round million dol
lars was deposited at the Subtreasury tor tcio
graphic transfer to New Orleans, showing the
approach to the maximum flow for the season
of cotton crop funds. The market closed easy.
The late break in United States Steel bonds
caused a sympathetic weakness in the former
ly Irregular bond market. Total sales, par
value, $1,981,000. United States bonds were all
unchanged on the last call.

GOOD BUYING IX WHEAT.
Chicago Market Closes Steady, AVith
a Slight Gain.
CHICAGO, Sept. 22. There was good buying
In wheat early, after a moderately strong open
ing, based on fairly firm cables and good ex
port trade prospects, with December up lc
to c at 7878c, and soon going to
78c. The firmness could not stand against
tho fine weather and an easy tone In the
Northwest markets, due to the prospective mill
ers' strike, and prices went down before liberal
offerings from the Northwest and Southwest,
December touching 78c before the decline was
checked. A demand arose out of reports of
small receipts Northwest and heavy clearances
of flour, and the "natural reaction" theory ap
peared to Influence some buyers. December
went back to 7878c Late In the session
It dropped and closed steady at 78tj78c, with
a gain of c over yesterday. Trade was of
good volume.
Corn prices reached the lowest point touched
since the recent frost .scare, with December
down to 46c. but the decline was checked on
buying Induced by Indications of a break in the
present fine weather, decreasing receipts and
the excellent cash demand. Tho later tone was
better than has been in evidence for several
days. The later reports of damage by the re
cent frosts helped thestrength. There was a
large trade by "commission houses on both side
of the market. December showed a gain of
c at the close, at 47c.
Oats received good support by commission
houses and local traders on small receipts and
adverse, crop news. There was considerable
long oats on the market early, but the offerings
were well taken, and the close showed Decem
ber c higher, at 37c.
Provisions, except lard, participated in the
general advance, and the market was strong
on a steady hog situation and fair general de
mand. There was considerable selling of Octo
ber lard for the account of the smaller peaches
and that product showed a decline or ScrOcto
ber pork was up 23c, with 10c higher pn ribs.

Twenty-Seven CentN Was Refused
Yesterday In Sonoma County.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 22. (Special.) With
the completion of hoppicklng today In Sonoma
County, the greater part of the state crop has
been harvested. The yield is light, but the
quality and prlc have combined to eftrich the
grower-far beyond the ordinary season's' profit.
Those who have sold have' added materially to
their bank accounts. s Those who have held bid
falr'to do 'even better.
Where early In the season 25 cents was looked
upon as a remote possibility. 27 cents was re
fused today in Sonoma County. The reason
for the rise Is ascribed -to the failure of tho
crop throughout the world, which has occa
sioned an unusual demand from Europe.
