ellKht Indications of improvement wre sven
In the English market yesterday and should
thing continue to brighten there, there will
be more Inducement to buy at thlfl end. With
a revival of activity In, the Northwest, higher
prices are expected to follow. Opinions in
the local trade vary as to the quantity of
wheat remaining in farmers' hands in the
three atatea. but a conservative estimate is
a sixth of the crop.
Most of the foreign grain men take a bullish
view of the situation. It la evident from the
manner in which wheat has been exported
from the Tnlted States that the reserves are
being reduced to very small proportions. The
exports cannot keep up much longer unless
the estimates of the crop were radically wrong.
In commenting on the outlook. F. Lenders
Co., ot London, write:
The position of wheat appears to us as
perfectly sound, and to be gaining strength
dally, so that wehave little hesitation In ex
pressing a favorable opinion as to future
prospects, and wo look for a largely Increased
consumptive demand both In this country and
on the continent, which will undoubtedly Ir-ad
to strong markets, and In all probability to
a further Improvement In values1.
Tht weather In Argentine appears to
have been favorable on the whole, but some
firm continue to receive rather disquieting
reports, one especially saying that 3( per cent
of the wheat and oats In the South has been
damaged through gales and hailstorms.
Anxious ns wo may nil be to regard thl in
formation n grossly exaggerate!. It would
at the same time be folly to ignore it, es
pecially In view of the vital importance to
Kurope of a large Plate crop secured in good
condition.
Let nm repeat once more that, if the r.no.000.
flW.000 or 7oo,0(rf quarters which Argentine
Is expected to supply ua with weekly were
to be augmented by liberal shipments from
North America. India. Australia and the Black
Spa. there might be cause for fear that
Kurope would not he able to stand up against
such supplies, especially at the present level
of values, but all evidence points to the fact
that exports from the sources mentioned are
likely to be of a dwindling character, and in
some cases practically nil. Argentine ship
pers ought to know this as well as anyone
t Ifo. and It will always be a matter of won
der to us why they never seemed thoroughly
to grasp the fact, as that country certainly
holds the key of the situation, and If they
had taken anything like concerted action,
they could easily have put the market up
to 45s or even 50s per quarter; that they failed
to do t h Is, Kuropean consumers may feel
truly thankful.
The news from India continues gloomy, and
the prospect of any wheat being successfully
grown for export doubtful in the extreme.
This, however, has been expected for ertme
time and has probably been discounted; but
the latest news from Russia Is distinctly dis
quieting. According to today's cable, ad
vtc there Is hurd frost In the greater part
of the Southwest, without snow covering, and
crop prospects are poor. Te principal Black
gea porta are still without arrivals from the
Interior, and; markets keep wonderfully Arm.
CAI'SK OF BUF MOLD IN HOPS.
Germ Get Into the Cone Before Picking
Time, According; to an Expert.
Trade was reported quiet In the hop mar
ket yesterday. The B. C. Horst Company
was eald to be buying, but the other firms
were mainly occupied in taking in previous
purchases. A wire from California reported
that market "sick" and placed the unsold
stock of ll7s at 28,000 bales.
In dlscusrtng the attack of blue mold on
hops, a well-known dealer said yesterday:
'I eaw this trouble coming as long ago as
last October. In fact, when I saw the first
samples ot the crop, I knew that unless the
hops were moved East promptly, they would
become Infected. The trouble is due to the
condition of the hop Itself and not to the
weather. We have warm, moist weather
every Winter, but if the hops are sound to
start with, there can be no blue mold.
"The disease for that is all it ts Is the
effect of the burrs getting their second growth
during the rainy weather at picking time.
This second growth waj clearly shown by the
dark brown color of the cones. When I dis
covered this color in the early samples I
knew that trouble was likely to come later,
for the conditions were Just the same in 1S99.
The mold first shows itself In the cone and
then npreads to the outer edge of the hop.
The climatic conditions, of course, have
caused the mold to get lte growth, but it
would not have appeared if the germs had
not already been in the hop. Frost seems
to check the spread of the disease by killing
the germs, and when blue moldy hops are
put In cold stomge their condition grows no
worse. High dried hops. I believe, are never
attacked."
OrTSIUE Hl'TTKK IN OTEBSt'PI-LV
Front Street Heavily Stocked, with. Ie
ntand Very Light.
Although there Is a firm tone in the city
creamery butter market, owing to the light
arrivale of cream that will grade as No. 1,
the Front-street market is badly overlooked.
Country creamery butter of excellent quality
I. being offered there at 30 and 3i'i cents.
The supply is beyond all local requirement
and as there is no outside outlet at the pres
ent time. It is difficult to see how the sur
plus can be dt.poscd of. Only a few brands
of outside butter are now held up to 35
cents. Commission men say they do not re
member when the market was so badly over
loaded before at this time of year.
Eggs arrive freely from all parts of the
Valley and etock9 are slowly but surely ac
cumulating. Local retulle:t buy very cau
tiously. In order to interest Northern buy
ers, it was found ne-essary yesterday Jo make
a further cut in the price, and some business
was reported done at 2GS cents on outside
account. The general quotation single caws
waa 27 cents.
The poultry market was dull, with receipts
light and the demand for chickens slow.
Ducks were in fair request. Turkeys were
almost unsalable.
A small California Inquiry for cheese is
reported, which hae had the effect of some
what steadying the market. The last steamer
out from Tillamook brought 600 cases.

Effect of Abundance of Funds
at New York.
GENERAL BUSINESS QUIET
Stock Market in Professional Hands.
Rally Low Point or Morn
ing Is Xot Held and Clos
ing Tone Is Easy.
NEW YORK. Jan. 22- Professional opera
tions dominated the stock market today.
There was a suspicion that tfVe turn In the
market was fostered by the strong fcnancial
lnteresta which have been given' credit for
the support of the market which had been
affective up to the end of last week. Con
ditions were not appreciably changed today
from yesterday.
Evidence accumulated of the piling of
money in this center, of the growing pres
sure to put it out in loans and of the in
creasing plethora In loaning channels which
Is resulting. The same tendency seems to
b quite universal and -reduction in the of
ficial discount rates of the Banks of Eng
land and France tomorrow was canvassed
aa a likelihood In foreign markets. This
development Is having its Inevitable effect
In Improving the demand for "gilt-edged,"
highly secured bonds of a seasoned capacity.
Information coming to hand today offered
little assurance for present expansion of
business activity, beyond the increase in
confidence of an early revival of demand,
for products to be stimulate: by the relax
ation in the money market.
The day's fluctuations were followed with
timidity in either direction and the substan
tial rally from the low point of the morn-
ng was not with any confidence, the closing
tone being heavy.
A brisk rally in the Rock Island collateral
bond issues was a feature of the bond mar
ket, which waa otherwise irregular. Total
ales, par value, $3,024,000. United States
registered 4s declined per cent on call.

COAL MIMES SHUT DOWN
Operators Claim Overproduction but
Ka.se Price Because of Shortage.
SEATTLE. Wash., Jan. 22. ( Special.
Declaring that the market Is overstocked
with coal, the Pacific Coast Company has
closed down the Lawson mine near Black
Diamond. The action throws out of
work several hundred miners, most of
whom have homes near the mine, and re
duces the production of coal by 400 tons
daily.
The action of the company is a sur
prise to the public, following as it dors,
the loudly proclaimed shortage of coal
which the officers of the Pacific Coast
Company warned the public would take
place this Winter. This loudly voiced
prediction followed an advance of $1 a
ton on the price of coal at the Pacific
Coast bunkers, and was made as an ex
cuse for such an advance In midsum
mer. The Lawson mine is a large producer
of the best grade of coal mined by the
Pacific Coast Company. Shutting it down
will materially affect the coal supply of
Seattle, and this action of the Pacific
Coast Company may result in a scarcity
of coal in a few weeks' time. Under
present market conditions. Black Dia
mond lump coal ought to be selling for
from $5 to $5.50 a ton at the bunkers,
instead of $7 a ton. the present price.
