FIGURES FOR CALIFORNIA
Heavy Rain Storms in the New York
Producing Section Small Local
Demand for Spot Goods
or Contracts.
A cablegram from their London office was
received by Klaber. Wolf & Nettle yesterday,
which reported very little Ilea In the Eng
lish hopyards and estimated the English I
crop, with a continuance of the present
favorable weather, at 450,000 cwt.
M. J. Netter, of this firm, has reports
from California that the Eaoramento dis
trict will have soma of the new crop ready
for shipment In the coming week. He
states that there are about 21.000 balea of
1906 hops remaining In growers hands in
California.
J. M. Splcer, who formerly represented
the California . branch of Kluber, Wolf
Netter, has come to Oregon to represent
this firm In the Independence and Dallas
sections, with headquarters at Independ
ence, where he took up his duties yester
day. Mr. Spicer has had many years' expe
rience in the growing and Inspection of
hops and haa been held In much esteem by
California growers. He Is certain to be
come a favorite with the producers in the
section in which he will hereafter operate.
E. M. Young, who formerly attended to the
firm's buying . in that section, haa given
up the hop business to engage in other
pursuits. - .
Another change in the hop trade of much
' Interest to growera is the formation of a
partnership between Harry L. Hart and T.
Henry Hubbard, two . of the best-known'
dealers of the state. The firm has Just
opened an office in Salem and later in the
season will establish another branch in
Washington, either at Tacoma or Puyalluu.
The market has ruled dull this week, both
for spot and contract hops. The only trans
actions reported yesterday were in the Ger
vals and Woodburn sections, where T. A.
Llvesley & Co. bought about 200 bales of
1906s, including the two Reuben lots, at
prices said to be and 6 cents.
The prevailing moist weather, it Is feared,
will bring a renewed attack of vermin In
the Valley yards, but a brief rainy spell so
far ahead of picking time does not cause
much uneasiness to farmers.
A press dispatch received yesterday from
Sacramento said:
The hop crop this year will, It is said,
be about 25 per cent less than that of last
year. Local dealers estimate that the en
tire yield of the stale will not pass 80,000
bales. It Is figured that Sacramento and
Yolo Counties will produce about 27,000
baies. Dealers, though they admit that
the hops are of excellent quality this year,
are offering hut 7 cents a pound and no
sales or contracts are reported.
. Conditions in New York 8tate are thus
reported by the Watervllle Times of Au
gust 2:
There is no change in the hop situation
here with the exception that some of the
yards were badly whipped by the strong
winds that prevailed here early in the
week. Heavy -rainstorms have been almost
dally occurrences here, and this morning
tome hall fell. As . f ar -as can be -learned,
the yard? in this Immediate vicinity were
not damaged by it. The heaviest part of
the storm, seemed to pass north of thin
village, but as yet no reporta of damage
have been received.
FRONT STREET BUTTER ADVANCED.
Easier Tone in the Cheese MArket Eggs
Show Improvement.
The best outside brands of butter nave
been advanced on Front street to the top
city creamery price. With one or two ex
ceptions, all the local creameries are now up
to 32 M cents.
The demand for cheese is not as active as
it was last week, and this has given a degree
of easiness to the market. In some quarters
it is thought probable that the price may
recede a cent. The weakness, however, is
only temporary, from all Indications, as the
supply both here and at the factories is
limited. i
Improvement is perceptible In the tone of
the egg market, especially as regards No. 1
stock, for which there Is a steady demand.
Less effort is being made to force the sale
of seconds, as the futility of such course
has been demonstrated. A good many East
ern eggs are being offered, but the trade
does not take kindly to them. From now
on the marker for atrictly fresh ranch eggs
should continue in satisfactory shape.
Arrivals of poultry yesterday did not quite
?ome up to requirements and the market
ruled steady at the quoted prices.
BULLISH VIEW OF COFFEE MARKET. -
Strong Undertone Indicated by the Statis
tical Position of the Article.
A bullish view of the future of the coffee
market is taken by one of the leading
brokers of New York, who says in his latest
weekly circular:
If the current crop in Brazil is either
much smaller than anticipated or late in
coming to market, the supplies, of coffee
available for contracts in the nearby months
In this market are much below what they
ought to be. A similar condition exists In
Europe, even where the supplies appear - so
large, as in Havre, and still all months sell
at the same price; but the position there is
a good deal like It Is here, the available
coffee is controlled by the Government of
San Paulo, and the speculators who sold
there or here, have little or no coffee to
settle their contracts with. In transferring
spot months to futures they no longer get
the heavy premiums formerly existing, and
this makes the position of the entire market
very different from the past year.
It is very difficult to control stocks at
high prices, but at very low prices as at
present It is quite easy. With prospects of a
smaller crop than expected for the current
season, and recent and present unfavorable
weather for the growing crop, the holders
of spots here and In Europe will find a
steady demand for consumption, notwith
standing that both here and in Europe the
interior buys from hand-to-mouth only; the
fact is the great majority of the trade have
no stocks.
Cool Weather Checks Melon Trade.
The change In the weather put somewhat
of a damper on the fruit trade yesterday,
particularly in the melon line. Other va
rieties were still in good demand. The in
quiry for peaches was active, but receipts
have become so free that a gradual scaling
down of prices is necessary. Crawfords and
Elbertas are bringing $1.25. but other grades
sell as low as 75 cents. The day's receipts
included three cars of watermelons and one
of cantaloupes.

AND PRICES TAKE TUMBLE
Bears Make a Fierce Onslaught on
the General List Increased
Pressure on Money Market
Also Has Effect.
NEW YORK. Aug. 7. The squall which
broke over the stock market today has
been brewing for several days and there are
not wanting observers to contend that the
seeds of trouble were sown in the Ill-ad-Vlsed
market movement to advance prices
which was embarked upon under flam
boyant auspices late in June. The market
commitments now holding over from that
pericd, besides the embarrassments of the
money and capital agitation, which were
then perfectly well foreseen, have been
overtaken by the bad effect on sentiment
of the renewed outbreak of hostility against
corporations.
The stock market was disposed to view
with, mild disquiet the news of the enor
mous fines levied on the Standard Oil Com
pany by Judge Landls last Saturday. Every
day since then, however, the dally news
has consunied large space with the an
nouncement of new .-measures or plans in
pursuit of the railroads or other corpora
tions. The reiteration has got on the nerves
of Wall street, and the disposition to sell
has been increasing, and the decline in
prices has gained cumulative velocity, as
is the way with falling bodies, the outcome
being a spasm of liquidation today.
No one questions that there was large
and important liquidation in progress, al
though the part played by the bears In
forcing prices lower and in precipitating
the liquidation was also obvious. ' The bear
erement had grown cautious after the con
siderable decline that has . occurred this
week, and especially after the small dis
turbance in the early London market today.
American securities were pronounced a
brigh't spot in the London market, and
there was some buying for foreign account
here. The result was the show of strengtll
in the early part of the day and some de
mand from the shorts to cover. This ap
pears later to have been a device on the
part of the more influential bear leaders to
shake off a weak following.
There were signs enough as the morning
advanced that Important liquidation . was
still In progress. The onslaught of the bears
thereupon was fierce and the slump in
prices somewhat alarming. The market
proved to be honey-combed with stop-loss
orders, refuting the common supposition of
its sold-out condition. Gossip of several
days past was revived in full force bf the
scallng-down of or closing-out of speculat
ive accounts following a recent return from
Europe. The stocks most affected by the
weakness were those identified In popular
estimation with the stock market activities
of the Interests pointed to in-, this gossip,
notably Union Pacific and Keading. copper
was also depressed.
The subject most talked of was the -probable
further course to be taken by the agi
tation agairst corporati6ns and the 'meas
ures likely to be next promulgated against
them. Stocks of companies supposed to be
vulnerable to such proceedings as issued In
the $29,000,000 fine against the Standard
Oil Company were conspicuously weak. The
industrials, aa a group, were greater suffer
ers than the railroads. The copper group,
sugar and some of the railway equipment
stocks, including .General Electric, sold at
low prices "for the year. In the railroad
list this was true only of the Southern
group, although other prominent stocks ap
proached the level of the Marcn panic, re
ports of the conference of State and District
Attorneys of the Mississippi va.iey xo con
cert further measures against corporations,
the Alabama indictment against the -South
ern Railway and reports ol conterences aiso
onion corporation advisers to devise pro
tective measures fed the apprehension on
the sublect.
The late rise In call money to 6 per cent
reflected the Increasing pressure on re
sources there and time loans were strong
and the demand active. Discounts weio
also hleher -in London and Paris, and ster
ling exchange at Paris declined, the move
ment tending toward the point of attrac
tion, gold from New York. Grtat Northern
subscribers to new stock had an Install
ment nf S3.000.000 to pay today. On Frl
day there falls due $15,000,000 on Union
Pacific convertlDie Donas, ana-an i nurmH
of next week $10,000,000 of Southern Pa
.ift preferred stock subscriptions. The
obligations thus accruing- necessitate . ro
prvfi in hand to meet them, and this
cause may have figured In the day's llqui
H.dnn in stocks. The fall in New York
exchange in Chicago to 50c discount was the
Index of another source of pressure on New
York money resources. CoppeV was again
weak in London.
Last prices represented rallies on short
covering of 1 to 3 points and the fact that
such net declines remain as on in union
p-m 4 In American Smelting, SV In
Amalgamated, 8 In Sugar and between
2 and 8 In Reading, St. Paul and the Hill
stocks Is evidence of the violence of the
day s decline. The closing tone was un

lies held. - ,

II HANDS OF BEARS
Chicago Wheat Market Ham
mered Down Vigorously.
SLUMP OF OVER TWO CENTS
Enormous Lines of Wheat Sold by
Discouraged Longs Weather
Favorable for New Crop.
Receipts in the Southwest.
CHICAGO. Aug. T. Heavy realizing sales
caused a slump of more than 2 cents In
the price of wheat today on the local ex
change. t At the close the September de
livery was off 2 cents.. Corn was down
c. Oats were up c to c. Provisions
were 5c to 22 c lower.
The wheat market today was completely
In the hands of the bears, who peunded
prices vigorously. Commission houses also
disposed of enormous lines of wheat for
discouraged longs. The conditions In this
country favored the bear side of the mar
ket, the weather in the Northwest being
favorable for . a new crop, and the receipts
of new wheat in the Southwest showing a
constant increase. The severe break in
prices In Wall street also had a depressing
effect on the wheat market. The market
lacked substantial support, the principal
demand coming from shorts. The close
was weak and at the lowest point of the
day. - September opened a shade to
c higher at 90c to 90c and declined
to 87 a 88c. where it closed.
The weakness of wheat and Increased
country holdings caused bearish sentlmetit
In the corn Dit. The late strength in oats
partially offset these influences and prices
rallied somewhat from the low point of the
day. The close, however, was easy. Sep
tember opened unchanged to c higher at
55c to 55c, sold of fto 54c, and closed
at 54 c.
The oats market was extremely erratic.
1 The market was weak early in the day be
cause of heavy llquidatory sales, but later
prices rallied sharply on buying by bears.
During the remainder of the day, despite
several slight breaks, sentiment continued
bullish. The market closed strong. Spot
opened unchanged to e higher at 48c to
43 c. sold between 42 c -ana 44c, ana
closed at 436 45c.
Provisions were wean on scatterea selling
by longs. A 10c to 15c decline in- the price
of live hogs was largely responsible for the
weakness. At the close pork was off JJc.
Lard was down 5s and ribs were 7c lower.
