Kay takea exception to the esti mates of a New Tork dealer. 530.000 bales for the American crop, printed In this pa per yesterday. Mr. Bay aald. 1 do not think the American crop will exceed 205.000 bales, allowing 85.000 for Oregon. 70.000 for California. 13.000 for Washington and 83.000 for New Tork. Hop In this state are going to coma down light. The resulta of the first few days' picking In our yards do not show aa heavy aa we expected. I think the market will open at 8 centa I hear predictions of a decline to very low prices, but I do not think hops will go lower than 6 cents, aa It la not likely the growers will force their crops en the market this season. If the English crop proves to be of poor quality wa may ha an advance." A London cable received by Klaber. Wolf A Netter yesterday said: "Weather Is fav orable for the crop. We do not alter our estimate of the crop. Market ateady at unchanged prices." Another Knglish cable to the same firm follows: "Crop haa been eomewhat In jured by unfavorable weather. Damage only nominal. Estimate crop at 500.000 to 525.0OO cwt. Average English hope sell ing at 8T shillings (8 eents." The firm's continental cable aald: "Con tinental markets firm for choice and weak for other qualities. Market Is expected to decline. Crop will be large."

OTHER ISSUES NEGLECTED Decline In Reserve of New York Banks Xot Considered Impor tant (government Crop Report Xot Liked. NEW TORK. Sept. 8. Undisturbed ease In the money market and aggressive strength In the Harrimaa stocks were the sustaining Influences in today's etock market. The In fluence waa moderate In Its effect, an over whelming proportion of the day' bisslness being In the Harrtman themselves or In stocks In soro way affiliated with that name. United States Steel was the only addition of flrst-clsew importance to the list. Dealing elsewhere were dull and the prlc mpvement narrow. The Harrtman stocks failed to exert any pronounced sympathetic effect, even In th groupa In which similarity of conditions would place them. In the transcontinental group ther wa an early advance In the Hill stocks, but even thl wa ascribed to the assurances offered ' by Mr. Harriman. In the Interviews) reported with him that mutually helpful Intention now ruled between the two controlling railroad powers thus represented. Atchison and St. Paul, usually In close sym pathy with the group, were comparatively norlected. In the trunk line group the same peculiarity was manifested. The rise In Erie and Baltimore Ohio was frankly at tributed to the Harriman dominance In those properties and other stocks In the trunk line group were stuggtoh and dull. The coalers, which are affiliated with those two stocks In another connection, were equally Indiffer ent, th activity In Reading being at some expense to Its price. Pennsylvania and New York. Central scarcely moved. The Immediate new development affecting the Harrlmans wa the confident and cheer ful tone voiced by the head of the system In public Interview on his way home from hla vacation. Intimation that Southern Pacific had soma financing In propped seemed to be of as good effect on that stock aa wa th assertion that Union Paciflo needs had been supplied In it effect on that. Material development affecting value of securities were lacking after the lapse of three day sine th preceding dealings on tn etock exchange. The decline In the sur plus reserves of the banks, show by the Sat urday bank statement, were not considered Important, In view of the large proportion of reserve still held. Th hardening of the foreign money markets, while It pulled np the rata of foreign exchange In this market, was without apparent Influence on our money market. London baying of stocks was said to play a part In the strength of some of the low-priced railroad stocks. The strength In the exchange market, however. Is attributed by exchange experts to remittances for Ameri can securities sold by foreigner on account of the firmer money rate abroad. The Government report on condition of tlie grain crop waa not liked. The condition of corn was not accepted a threatening; any disastrous ontcome of that crop, but a re vision of earlier and more heopeful views wa Impreesed aa a .necessity. Tha Spring; wheat figures helped to lighten the chilling effect on speculative confidence. American Locomotive suffered from fear of a coming reduction in dividend and -American Smelting from distrust aroused by a resump tion of advertised tlpa to buy the stock. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value. $4,400,000. United States bond were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. 111.1.
