Crop.
CLD "WHEAT IS SLUGGISH
For Club, December Delivery, 8 3
Cents Is Bid at the Board of
Trade California's Probable
Yield and Requirements.
Tradlnc in old crop what is on a email
scale in the local market On the basis
of forelyn prices exporters are quoting club
at Mr and bluestem at 8c. If they wanted
to buy any wheat, however, it is not prob
able they could et any at these figures.
In fact, a email sale of club was recently
made as high as b9 cents.
Interest centers in the marked for the
new .crop, in which very little business has
been done so far. The purchase of & small
lot of bluestem in the country on the basis
of 84 cents was announced yesterday. At
the Board of Trade. b3 cents was bid for
club December delivery.
Advices received from a California author
ity are that that state will produce 200.000
tons of wheat this year and wilt want
00ft tons. The California barley crop he
estimates at 450.000 tons and the require
ments 500,000 tons, while oats will yield
So.OOO tons anl 45.000 tons will be needed.
The Eastern and foreign speculative mar
kets were strong- yesterday. At Chicago
September wheat closed 1 cents above
Saturday's figure and December wheat
gained 2 cents. Liverpool wheat options
were 1 penny higher and cargoes advanced
6 pence. The tveekly statistics were bullish,
quantities on passage decreasing 2.S80.000
bushels from last week and 6.OS0.0OO bushels
from last year and shipments, though 545.000
bushels more than last week, were 2,2o:t.
ono bushels less than at the corresponding
date a year ago.
At yesterday's session of the Portland
Board of Trade the center of interest was
Decemher wheat, and prices were bid up
from 80 to 83 cents. September was nomi
nal at AO cents. From to $1.15 was
offered for September oats. December oats
at $1 20 were 5 cents higher than Saturday.
September barley was quoted lower, at
$t 05 and December was unchanged at $1.10.
These prices are understood as f. o. b. stor
age paid. Track prices are !H cents less.

INQUIRIES FOR LAST YEAR'S HOPS
English Trade Report Conditions in New
York State.
The most interesting feature of the hop
market yesterday was the lenewed Interest
reported in 1907 goods, believed to be for
export account. There was talk of some
contracting at 9s5 JH cents in a small way.
English bop trade reports bearing dates of
June 22 to 24. follow:
Wild. Neame A Co.. London There Is
very little doing on our market, and values
are unaltered.
Manger & Henley, London The Increased
Inquiry still continues for good quality hops,
and some fair lots have changed hands.
We have renewed reports of vermin from
some districts.
Cattley, Grldley & Co., Londc-n The con
tinuance of fine weather is favorable to the
normal development of the crop in England,
and trade under these circumstances is nec
essarily small. Prices, however, are main
tained, and god hops for holding over are
extremely scarce. Foreign reports and
markets are unchanged.
W. H. A H. Le May. London There it a
fair consumptive demard for this eoason
of the year for English hrps. prices of which
are very tempting, being about half the
cost of production.
Exchange and Hop Warehouses. London,
S. E. RusinesK remains fairly quiet, only a
few lots changing hands here and there for
Immediate consumption. Storks are vry
considerably reduced, and a difficulty is be
ing experienced among buyer to find suit
able hops to carry them on, consequently
prices remain firm. Reports from planta
tions show an Increase of fly all round,
otherwise the plant is growing well, but too
fast.
J. H. Meredith Co., Worcester Business
for Woieester remains in a very quiet con
dition, and values show no change. Last
week 32 pockets passed the scales. The
plantations continue to make rapid prog
ress, and In most ganlons the bine will be
well over the tops of the pole and strings
by midsummer day. s. far blight has not
increased so rapidly as usual, hut It is very
persistent and recurs after washing.
New York papers say of the hop crop
in that stnto:
The drought still continues and has held
the crop n check for the past few weeks,
but this is believed to be doing great dam
age to the vine as it has already made a
very rapid growth Clean, health v vines
are reirted from aM sections and as it
still lacks a week or more before the hops
will begin to come into blow there is little
that can be added further in regard to the
coming crop. W'aterville Times.
Growers report that the hop vines are
looking very healthy and are further ad
vanced than usual at this time of year.
Indications at this date point to an excel
lent quality but not an extia large yield In
Otsego County- Cooperstown Farmer.
Hops continue to look well, the recent
drought not being sever, enough to affect
them- There continues to be evry indica
tion that a good crop win b harvested in
this state. Cherry Valley Gazette.
FIVE CARS WATERMELONS RECEIVED
First New Yellow Onions Come in From
Walla WaJla.
Five cars of watermelons arrived yesterday
and found good sale at last week's pries.
A car of cantaloupes waa received and
cleaned up before evening at firm quota
tions, the best bringing $2.25. A car of
peaches, mostly St. Jeans, Uo arrived and
sold at 75 cents to $1. Loganberries were
fairly Arm at $1 for the best offerings. A
shipment of strawberries frtm Estacada w&J
quoted a't 75 cents to $1. Raspberries were
plentiful and lower, cherries were slow at
unchanged prices and ether smalt fruits
were steady.
Two cars of yellow Walla Walla onions
were received. W. B. Glafke, who received
the first car. reports an average crop of
fine quality in the "Walla Walla section this
year.
CHEESE IS FIRM AT THE ADVANCE
LocI Stocks Art Light and Nothing la
Coming From Tillamook.
The cheese market, as was announced
Saturday, went to a 14-cent basis yesterday.
The market was firm at the advance with
local stocks light. Nothing is coming out
of Tillamook, and San Francisco and the
Sound are drawing on that source f supply.
"o change was reported Jn the butter
Bltuation.
Eggs continued firm, with fresh No. 1
stock held at 23&24 cents.
Poultry receipts were nominal, and the
indications are for a good steady demand
for chickens this week.
Pacific Banana Companies to Merge.
DAYTON, Wash., July 13. If negotia
tions now under way materialize It Is prob
able that a merger will be affected between
the Mexican Pacific and Washing to Aca
pulco companies. Frank Ryan, of Seattle,
representing the Mexican company, was in
conference here recently with officials of
the latter company; looking to that end.
An effort is eing made to form a merger
of the companies, whose lands in Mexico
are adjacent. If the merger -is affected
the control of the banana trade of the Pa
cific Coast may pass into the hands of the
Mexican pacific Company.
Half a Hop Crop at Gervuis.
GERVAIS, Or., July 13. (Special.) In a
number of yards of this section hops are In
bloom and another week will find all the
yards in this condition. This would indi
cate that hop picking is only six weeks
away, or will begin about September 1.
Growers who have been interviewed state
that the prospects are for not more than
half an average yield, due principally to
missing hills. Cultivation has been slack
and plowedout yards are numerous.

NEW YORK, July' 13. The stock market
gave evidence of the relief afforded by the
sales to take profits in the latter part of
last week, that procees apparently having
been completed. The contraction in the vol
ume of the dealings was a warning of the
lapse of operations further into professional
hands with this completion of a customary
circle of a speculative enlsode. While the
market was narrow, there was a perceptible
growth of demand for stocks from new sources.

Last week's events in the financial dis

business and industry of the country and this
was reflected back today in the encouraging
views of the outlook for business and in

ehowed the influence of the improvement re
ported last week In Wall street.
The time money market was firmer as a
result of some large transactions in execu

balance of $3,423,288 at the clearing-house re
flected some large disbursements on account
of Government expenditures, as well as a
heavy redemption of bank-notes and pay
ments on account of gold for Seattle. The
banks are completing the repayment of Gov

call of the Secretary of the Treasury. It is
estimated that $7,000,000 has already been

The strength of the wheat market and the

the stock market, the Northwestern grangers
sharing fully in the day's strength. Much
attention was given to the published ex
changes between Vice-President Brown, of
the Now York Central, and Secretary Holle,
of the Manufacturers Association, of New
York, on the subject of an effort to make a
general advance of 10 per cent in freight
charges by the railroads. The contention of
the railroad officials that this advance was
a necessary alternative to a cut in wages.

CHICAGO, July 13. The wheat market was
active and itrorg; all day. Reports from
Minnesota and the Dakotas, claiming that tho
Spring- wheat crop Is deteriorating rapidly.

ready done placed the injury at 25 to SO per
