OfJ THE OTHER SIDE
More Optimistic View of the
Hop Outlook.
OPINION OF HARRY HART
What the Growers Stand to Ixse by
Abundoning Their Yards Esti
mates of the, English and
American Crops. '
Harry L. Hart, of this city, one of the
largest hop buyers on the Coast, takes ex
ception to the statements made In an inter
view printed yesterday morning regarding
the hop market outlook. Mr. Hart said:
"The estimates given appear to me to
be too high. Our correspondents In Eng
land place an outside figure on that crop of
400. 000s centals, with indications that it will
not exceed 400.000.
"Mall advices of today to two Portland
dealers reduce the New York crop estimates
to 35.000. California cannot harvest over
70.000 bales under most favorable con
ditions. . whllfr Oregon's uncultivated and
plowed-out acreage will exceed 15 pv cent.
Of the acreage that remains, a bisr per
centage has been so carelessly cultivated
and trained that It will be impossible to se
cure pickers to harvest them, owing to the
light crop and high weeds in the yards.
Even the most conservative estimates do j
not look for a crop of over 100.000 bales, ;
and this only In case that everything is ;
picked.
"The Question of . picking will bear a
little consideration. A large grower of
Oregon has Indicated his Intention of
paying $1.20 per hundred. It is al
most an assured thing now that .Wash
ington ' fwhich will only harvest 15.000 to
17.000 bales, will pick for 75c or at most SOc.
California growers are agttatlng an SOc
price. If Oregon growers are compelled to
pay even $1 per 100 pounds, it will place
them in bad shape to compete with the
neighboring states, their hops, or those of
them that are harvested at all. costing
nearly cent per pound more than Cali
fornia and Washington hops. In addition
to this, it will mean that a certain percent
age will not pick at and If prices should
advance during or directly after picking
time, they will lose the benefit of theli
profit and actually lose the 2 or 3 cents
per pound that they have paid out for culti
vation, training, etc.
"The Prohibition movement has gained no
strength the past two months in fact,
Texas, heretofore one of the most radical
states In this regard, recently voted on
state-wide prohibition and the measure was
defeated derisively. It is more than likely
that the 1008 consumption of beer will show
a gain over 1007. instead of a losa as an
ticipated. "It does hot seem good policy to advocate
the abandoning of yards by the growers of
this state. The few thousand bales thus
lost would In no wise affect the markets
of the world, but would simply mean a loss
to the growers of this state and hurt Ore-,
gon's industry. There ts little to be gained
by looking on the dark side of the situation;
there Is a 100,000-bale shortage in the Uni
ted States this year, a-i compared with the
11)07 yield; this will only be partially made
up should England harvest her full crop.
With enormous crops last year, growers
who sold early, as many did. could have
realised 0 to 10 cents, notwithstanding that
the two previous crops were large and the
late-market prices very low, thus enabling
the brewers to stock up' heavily. This
brewers' stock" bogy ts a very Intangible
argument used by the bears to put the hop
grower to sleep. The fact remains that
there Is no reason why any commodity
should not realise for its producer the cost
of production and a nominal profit of 3 to
15 per cent.
NOT MUCH WHEAT CHANGING HANDS.
But Buyers- Are Offerine eeljr In All
4 Parts of the Country.
Offers for wheat are being freely made in
the interior en the basis of the local quo
tations and tn some Instance higher, but
from what can be learned in the grain
offices here, the amount of business trans
acted has not been large, as farmers are
by no means ready sellers, even at the ad
vances quoted by some buyers.
Not much change was shown in the course
of grain prices at the Board of 'Trade. Sep
tember wheat opened and closed at the pre
vious day's prices and there was no altera
tion In December values. September oata were
stronger at the close, with $1.17 Va bid and
the same price was offered for the December
delivery. For September barley $l.li was
bid and $1.12 for the later month.
Receipts for the day were 11 cara and
2435 sacks wheat.. 1 car and 140 sacks
oats. 3000 sacks flour and 2 cars and 250
bales hay.
The range of futures was as follows:

terday with the arrival of a car. and Stand
ards were quoted at $2.50 and ponies at $2.
Five cars of watermelons arrived and met a
strong demand at the previous day's price.
A shipment of casahas was received and
they were quoted at $2.73 per doien.
A mixed car of peaches and seedless
grapes came In. the latter selling at $1.30
to 1.75. The peaches were Elbertas and

ureson pearhes gotng at 73 cents to $t.
Otherwise fruit prices were not changed.
An express shipment of sweet potatoes was

WESTERN WOOLS IN THE EAST. .
Light Transactions In Oregon and Territory
Clips.
Mall advices from Boston report a late
sale of 10.000 pounds of XXXX scoured
Oregon wool on private terms. In grease
Oregon wools there have been no further
sales of staple. A large amount previously
sold from this year's clip has yet to be de
livered. Most sales were at 18 to Ittc, and
the scoured cost Is estimated at 3S to 0Oc.
For territory wools, the Eastern market,
though quiet. Is steady and fairly firm for
staple descriptions, tne carry-over supply of
which is limited. There la no prospect of im
provement in clothing "wools of average
type. For fine around 43c is the highest
scoured basis that can be obtained. Fine
staple Is quoted on the basts of 57 to fiSc.
not yt having reached 6O0 on actual sales.
But that is the goal sought when the de
mand Improves. A good trade in half-blood
clothing at 17 to 18c In the grease and 43
to 47c clean Is reported. About 50.000 lbs.
medium staple sold on the basis cf 52 to
63c Montana wool in the original bags has
changed hands at 19 to 50c for clips on the
fine side. -
Poultry Market Breaks.
The poultry market broke yesterday, hena
dropping to 12 Si 12 V cents and Springs to
1J.7 cents. Other descriptions were very
slow and weak.
Egg receipts were 266 cases, but very few
extra were available and they sold readily
at 25 cents. In the quotation list printed tn
this paper eggs will hereafter be graded.
The butter and cheese markets were firm
without further change. Butter receipts
were 8S boxes.
Sale of ForeM Grove Hop.
The hop market' is very quiet as regards
both spot goods, and contracts. The only
transaction reported yesterday was the sale
of 38 bales of Idols by J. It. Hoffman, of
Forest Grove, to H. L. Hart at 4 cents.

TRADE IN SUSPENSE
Wall Street. Awaits Settlement
of Gould Financial Affair.
MARKET IS NEARLY IDLE
Selling Pressure Cease3 W hen. Prices
Move Downward Coppers Are
Strengthened by Rise in
Price of Metal.
NEW YORK. July 30. The stock market
was much neglected today and for a large
part of the time was practically idle. Influ
ence on this result was attributed to a fuel
ing of suspense- of the withheld announce
ment of the plan of settlement of the Wheel
ing & Lake Erie note maturity. News of
he sett lement was expected before noon.
but when a further postponement was an
nounced all disposition to operate In the
market seemed to be lost. The show of
strength in the Gould group kept alive a
supposition that the forthcoming news would
be helpful to values. The reticence of all
persons directly connected in the negotia
tions, however, and the variety of rumors
in circulation as to the probable outcome
indicate so much uncertainty that specula
tive operators hesitated to commit them
selves. Aside from this special cause for a lull
in activity, the trading seems to have
entered upon one of the usual between
periods of hesitation and seeking for new
initiative. The cessation of the guying of
stocks which has resulted from this state
of the market was not followed today by
any important selling. When a recession In
prices occurred the selling seemed to be sus
pended entirely. Professional traders, how
ever, had a suspicion that any advance In
prices was taken advantage of to distribute
stocks. The quietness of the market was
believed to be In accord with the desires
of important financial interests who are sup
posed to deprecate undue speculative excite
ment at this season of political activity ana
of developments believed to be working out
as well In railroad affairs. - -
Some influence afterward was caused by
the published announcement by the Attorney-General
of the intention of the Presi
dent to push with renewed vigor aJl cases
pending against railroads ror granting re
bates or like offenses. There is some appre
hension tnat tnia mood of the Government
authorities may affect the desire of the rail
roads to advance freight rates, of which a
benevolent view from the Interstate Com
merce Commission was at one time counted
on.
The copper stocks showed considerable
strength. The further rise in the price of
the metal helped this movement. There
were some reports of damage to Spring
wheat from rust, which had some effect on
the price of wheat and was an influence on
stocks. Last prices of stocks showed some
declines from yesterday as a rule, but the
nuctuations were so constant and narrow
as to leave little significance in the day 'a
changes.
Bonds were lrrerular. Total sales, uar
vaiue, iui,uw. united mates oonas weie
unchanged on call.

Salmon Canners Are Doing Better
Than Last Year Alaska
Fish Is Strong.
ASTORIA. Or.. July 80. The fishing
season on the Columbia . River has ad
vanced to a point that lta mild-cured, or
cold atorage. pack, can be estimated with
assurance of denniteness. It will be about
3000 tierces short of tne park ol last year.
and Its total will be a little over
tierces. The cannery pacK to date is 111
advance of last year and with another
month to run and promise of good Ashing,
the pack is expected to reach proportion
that will be able to satisfy the demand.
Prices for Alaska fish have not been
fixed, but the Eastern buyers are beginning
to nibble at $1.20 per dozen and the price
will be near that, as. the cannery men are
holding out firm, as It Is well known tnat
the market is cleaned 'uo of last year's
park, or practically so. This will be good
news to all the local people interested in
Alaska canneries, as the latest reports from
the .ortn are to the effect! that th. pacK
will be large.
SEATTLE EGG MARKET WEAKENS.
Shipments From Portland Cut Down the
Extreme Price.
SEATTLE. Wash., July 30. (Special.)
Owing to receipts of fresh eggs from Port
land today, due largely to yesterday's ad
vance, the market was inclined to be weak
here all day. Only a few houses sold their
best stock at 31 cents. The old price of 30
cents was almost gerferal. Deaters doubt if
the market can be forced much higher for
some time.
Poultry was scarce today, especially hens,
which were In good demand. The tendency
Is for a higher market. Eastern car receipts
have been light for some time, and the im
pression prevails with dealers that the
concern that has been handling carlots of
Nebraska poultry Is likely to Quit that
business soon.
Wheat is more active. Millers are good
buyers and some grain Is being purchased
for export. Receipts of oats have been
heavy this week, 12 cars arriving yesterday.
Berries were steady today with rasp
berries held at $1.50 1.75. There Is a good
demand for loganberries, which are scarce.
More Eastern Washington cantaloupes ar
rived today.
Veal is stHl scarce at 11 cents for the
best. Dressed hogs are also scarce.
Marketing- LewiHton Valley Peaches.
LEWISTON, Idaho, July 30. (Special.)
The Fruitgrowers of Lewiston Vallcv are
now certain that all capacities for handling
the peach crop will be taxed to the utmost
to care for the crop that will be ready for
harvest in the next few weeks, the total of
which is placed at from 800 to 1000 car
loads. Warned by the lack of facilities In hand
ling the cherry crop, the growers of Clark
ston today met to form another shippers
organization, and will appoint one of their
association to go into the market territory
and direct the carload movement. Aside
from the fact that there are three canneries
In this section, the growers are preparing
to put tn dryers and handle a large portion
of their crops In this manner.

timent Coarse Grains

CHICAGO, July 80. The wheat market
was strong all day with the exception of a
brief period of nervousness at the outset
when prices dropped a trifle below yester
day's closing quotations. The dominating
factor during the entire session was the
situation in the Northwest where the new

ing injured by black rust. A falling off in
receipts in the Southwest helped to Inspire
bullish sentiment. There was liberal leal
lztng. but all offerings were readily absorbed.
