SOME
HOP
BUYING
Sale of 400-Bale Lot at
Grants Pass.
CONTRACT MARKET QUIET
I'arm, Moist Weather Increases
Vermin Crop Conditions in Xcw
York and Europe City Pro
duce Trade Light.
Several dealers are in the -market for
107 hops, but most of the business pass
Ma; ta between dealers. The only growers
ranaaction of Importance reported was the
ale of the Hannagan lot of 4UO bales at
grants Pass at 5 cents. The purchaser
ras either Hart or Herren. Neither of these
entlemen was In the city yesterday and
Ihe exact facts could not be learned. The
Inquiry for contracts at 10 cents waa not
ttrong, though It was learned that some
business was done at this figure In the
Wheatland district.
Cable advices received yesterday reported
favorable conditions generally in Europe. A
New York dispatch said the drouth in that
state had been broken. Conditions In Ore
ion were not materially changed from a
week ago, except that the moist warm
weather has increased the vermin in many
yards.
The following English, plantation reports
are from the Kentich Observer of July 2:
Ash ford The hops have made great
strides during the last week, and are now
in many gardens well over the top wire,
while In others the bine it a little below. In
plte of the cold winds at the end of last
week the hops are of a good color and there
) not much vermin, consequently no wash
ing has yet been done.
Betherarien The btne looks less healthy
than It did a week ago, and warmer nights
and genial showers would be an advantage.
There is scarcely any vermin as yet.
Canterbury KasterJy winds and cold
foggy nights do not constitute hop weather,
yet the best managed gardens are holding
their own. A good rain and warm nights
are much wanted. Some gardens which
have not been, well done are beginning to
show signs of slowing down.
Edenbrtdge The drying winds and hot
sun are making the .weak bine look sickly
and yellow.
Maidstone and District Although the de
velopment of the bine has been slightly
checked by the strong northeast winds and
the cold nights, the prospect continues very
satisfactory. There is but little vermin,
and It Is hoped that no washing will be re
quired. A full crop seems to be assured.
Selling The hops In this parish are do
ing exceedingly well and give promise of a
good crop. Indeed there is enough bine to
grow an over average one, and it Is prac
tically free of vermin, while mould is non
existent. The long spell of northeast wind
has slightly affected the color, but this will
soon be remedied by a few warm days and
nights.
Sussex Hop bines still healthy and grow
ing. Midsummer laterals appearing. The
gales and cold nights have checked them
hut little. Ladybirds seem hungry and hunt
ing for what they can't find.
Tenterden (Weald) The growth has not
been so fast during the past week owing to
the northeasterly .winds and the low night
temperature. The foliage looks rather yellow
in places, but there Is no access of vermin.
vVoodchurch The sheltered and well-cultivated
grounds look well, but where they
are exposed to the cold northeasterly winds
there Is some loss of color.
WHEAT CROP RK PORTS MUCH BETTER.
Rain Has Been General In Eastern Oregon
and Eastern Washington.
Crop reports from east of the mountains
received yesterday by D. A. Pattullo, of
Balfour. Guthrie & Co., were nearly all
favorable. The rainfall haa been general
both north and south of the Columbia,
and where it has not come too late, the
precipitation has been in sufficient quantity
to do much good. Umatilla, Heppner and
Walla Walla have had good rains as well
as Columbia, Garfield and the Palouse. In
Franklin and Adams, however, it la too
late to do much good. -Some of his corre
spondents reported that the only danger
now was from hot winds immediately fol
lowing the rains, but this occurrence la not
likely.
Little or no business Is under way in
new wheat In the Interior and until the
crop Is well secured there will be no ac
tivity. Ths market for old-crop wheat Is
vary dull.
Wheat was quiet at the Board of Trade
yesterday. September opened a cent lower
at 79 and closed at 80 cents. September
oats were 5 centa lower and December de
clined 3 centa from Tuesday's price. Barley
was unchanged.
Receipts for the day were 2 cars and 635
sacks wheat. 1 car and lift sacks oats,
cars barley, cars flour and 4 cars hay.

Local Trade Is Slow Because of the Grocers'
Picnic
Local trade In fruits and vegetables was
quiet, as the grocers were out of town on
their picnic, hut there was no abatement
of shipping orders, and Front street kept
busy.
1oganherries were In large supply and
weak at SOfffOOc. Raspberries were also
lower at 0c. A few crates of strawberries
came In and were moved around 1.40.
Among the cherry receipts was a good
shipment of "Lamberts, which were held at
10c a pound. Other varieties were slow at
23c. Wenatchee apricots were quoted
lower at $1.2o, owing to the large supply
of California cots on the street. Some
prunes were received, mostly of the Tragedy
variety, which were offered at 91 1.25 per
box. Plums are about cleaned up. A car
of -.'rawford peaches and a car of water
melons arrived last night, and two cars of
watermelons and two of cantaloupes are
due today. Three fresh cars of bananas
will be on sale this afternoon.
Eggs Hrm at 25 Cents.
The general egg quotation yesterday was
25c for fresh Oregons. Receipts were light
and the demand good. Eastern eggs are
offering on the etreet at US Vic.
There was a strong Inquiry for poultry,
and as arrivals were small, prices were
firm all through the list.
There was no change in the butter or
cheese markets.

YEAR'S BEST PRICES
General Lifting of the Level of
Stock Values. .
STEEL IS THE LEADER
Railroad List Helped by the Read'
jnstment of Freight Rates En
gagement of Gold for Ex
port Is Without Effect.
NEW YORK. July 15. There were no
strlklnszly new developments to account for
the further advance In irices of stocks
today. The buying was based on the gen
eral Improvement in the speculative situ
ation. Commission houses reported some
moderate and scattering Increase In orders
from miscellaneous sources. but the
transactions remained largely In pro
fessional hands and partook of the
manipulative character usual In that class
of operations. The decisive fact stood out
prominently, -as waa the case yesterday,
that Increased selling pressure was slight,
as the level of prices was lifted, thus leav
ing the way unobstructed for a continu
ance of tne advance. There were occasion
ally setbacks in the movement, which
seemed to te due as much to pauses in the
bullish operations as to any active selling
pressure
In United States Steel there was some
manifest selling to realize, part of It coming
from foreign quarters. This was absorbed
and the common and preferred continued up
to a new high price for the year. These
stocks constituted an effective leadership
for the whole market. their persistent
strength having a strong sentimental influ
ence In maintaining prices elsewhere. Amal
gamated Copper, National Lead. Central
Leather and United States Rubber ' wer6
examples in the class of Industrials which
went to the highest prices of the year.
The railroad list shared in the day's
strength, but offered fewer instances of high
record prices. However, Union Pacific (al
lowing for a dividend reduction). Northern
Pacific. Atchison and, Canadian Pacific were
at the year's best prices today. The Can
adian stock is helped particularly by favor
able reports of the wheat crop prospects in
Its territory and by the rapid development
of some of that territory.
Crop' news generally was favorable to
day, as was Indicated by the decline in
prices of grains. The generally cheerful
view of prospects which is obtaining a
foothold in financial circles was fostered
by confident views expressed in published
Interviews by several leading financial au
thorities. Probably some part of the underlying
strength of railroad stocks is due to the
conviction that the process of readjustment
of freight rates Is being worked out by the
railroads of the country, which will result
in an increase of the revenues derived from
their trafTlc. News of the filing of notices
with the Interstate Commerce Commission
of new rates shows the movement to be
widespread and, the changes to represent
Increases as a rule. While nothing like a
general increase has been attempted thus
far. It is not believed that the result will he
sought in a piecemeal manner. Shipping
interests are by no means agreed with the
contention of the railroads that these In
creases can be Instituted without percep
tible effect on prices of commodities and
can thus hope to escape complaint and
criticism while enabling the railroads to
cover the margin of fixed charges and mod
erate profits without cutting down wages
of employes. In spite of protests of ship
pers in various organizations. It is evi
dent that the increases in freight rates are
going on and the effect on security prices
is unaenlaoiy favorable.
The quick sale of the Delaware & Hud
son bond issue and the advance In the pre
mlum on the new bonds in the market
had some helpful influence. The engage
ment of $900,000 gold for export to Paris,
being all the bar gold procurable, was prac
tically Ignored in the stock market. Repay
ment of the quota of Government deposits
called for by the secretary of the Treasury
was completed today and preparations were
completed for the 95 per cent payment of
the subscriptions to the Union Pa
cific bonds tomorrow. With th
effect of these transactions and the
Delaware & Hudson bond sale barely per
ceptible in the money market, the gold ex
port excited no uneasiness. A break of
four points in the Rick Island collateral 5s
was a disturbing element in the later mar
ket. In which a considerable reaction oc
curred. Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $3,696,000. United States bonds weie
unchanged on call.
