EXCESS OF HOPS
World's Production as Figured
by a German Expert.
ABOVE TEN-YEAR AVERAGE
Crops of the European Countries
Compared With Last Year In
dications Are for Low
Prices Again.
The following article from the Baazer
Hopren Brauerseltung of Saax. Bohemia,
dated August -- 100. giving the world'!
estlmst of the hoi. crop of ibub. " com
pared with the crop of 1907. has been
A translated by O. Muecke. of thla city. in
Tlgure are given In xentners. eaual to 50
kilo, or 110 pound English. The figures
In parenthesis Indicate official return" of
the crop of 1907 In xentners. The article
follows:
Th iwMnt inri.ment weather ha now
chanced for the better, and although the
temperature la not quite normal yet. It
mmi beyond any question that with" the
healthy and vigorous stand or the nopvines.
any serious damage could occur, and we
may now consider It an assured fact that
thla year's hop crop will exceed In quality
that of the previous year and also the aver
age of the last ten years. The world's hop
crop will not only fully satisfy the con
sumption, but will leave quite a consider
able surplus for conserving purposes; there
fore, there is no doubt that we have to
reckon with very moderate prices, and a
proof that our growers are already con
vinced of this Is the fact that In countries
where early hops are available, like In
Wurtemberg. Styria and Hungary, they
are being readily parted with at exceedingly
low prices.
We might Just as well save ourselves the
trauble of going Into detailing the estimates
of all the hop-growing districts, but In order
to comply with the requests of a number
of our friends we will give a short review.
The German Empire, aa the most impor
tant producer In Europe, enjoys a splendid
stand of Its hopyards; In all Its different
state, which grow hops, a larger crop Is
expected than In 1907; we estimate the
total at M4.000 xentners against 4S3.000
sentners last year, of which Bavaria alone
will hare 32.1.0OO sentners (27l.ooo. Wur
temberg 75.1X0 (S3.000). Baden 37.0O0 (30.
f"W). Alsace-Lorraine 103.OOO (P6.000), and
the North 24.000 CJO.000). The most favor
ad district seems to be the Holledau. This
eomprlses the hop lands In Upper and Lower
Bavaria, and expects on Its acreage of 10.100
hektara (about 25.000 acres) at least 140.
Ooo centners U2K.40O I. y); the few bales
which already have reached market, were
of exceptional choice quality. Estimating
for the German production of 70.iHKI.000
hektollters of beer (nearly 60.000.ooo bar
rels) the requirement of 875.000 xentners.
the empire will have a surplus for export
of 100.000 sentners.
The Austro-Hungarlan Monarchy, with an
area In hops of about 25.000 hektars (1
hktar equal to nearly IV acres) expects
830.000 xeninere. against 290.000 xentners
last year. Of this quantity Bohemia alone
will have 2SO.000 sentners. against 211.000
last year. The prospects are especially
favorable In the famous districts of Saax
and Auscha; the quality promises to be en
tirely satisfactory.
Of other hop-producing states on the Eu-
Mgropean continent France expects about the
wim quantity aa last year. Belgium and
Holland perhaps 40.000 xentners more, Rus
sia, however, about that much less. The
total production of the European Continent
may therefore b put down as 1.147,000 xent
ners as agairst last year's 1.014.OOO sent
ners. This excess of 133.000 xentners would
not cut much of a figure, but as England
expects at least 100,000 xentners more-than
In 10O7 and as we are depending with our
aurplus upon the British Isles, export will
only be possible at very low prices, so much I
1 less so. aa the brewers there are carrying
Into the new campaign large stocks, mostly
Americans.
- The United 8tates of America, according
to official returns, have raised In 1007
F.20.OOO xentners of hops, of which fully
1OO.00O xentners wen shipped to Great
Britain. The estimates for 1908 vary great
ly: but If we strike the average of -the dif
ferent seemingly conservative estimates, we
arrive at a quantity of about 42O.0OO sent
ners. which means 100.000 xentners less
thin last year, and this encourages some
what the hope of our friends who do
an export business to America. The export
-, of Oerman hops to the t'nlted States In the
reriod from September 1, lOOi. to June sit.
IftOS. amounted to 41.619 xentners. Finally
not forgetting Australia, with 12 to 13.000
sentners. we arrive at the total from the
morld's hop crop of 1908 of around 2,000.000
sentners of 50 kilogrammes, or 110 pounds
each, which, sgalnst 1.929.000 sentners In
1907 shows 71. IKK) xentners more, and an
excess of 230.000 xentners over and above
the average of the last 10 years of 1,770.000
aentners.
Not being sanguine In our expectations
as to prices, the beginning season Is not
likely to bring us any surprises, and If deal-
era, producers and consumers. Instead of
fighting and antagonizing each other, will
go hand In hand and every one do his duty
to avoid excesses as either hulls or bears,
the rich crop' of 1108 will Anally quietly pass
Into the hands of consumers at prices ade
quate with existing circumstances.

WEAK CXDERTONE IX SPITE OF RAISE
Conditions Become More I'nsettlrd la the
Local Butter Market.
Conditions In the local butter market are
somewhat unsettled. 8everal of the city
creameries that have held back to the 30
cent quotation, yesterday advanced to 81 V
cents, and the two largest Valley producers
have raised to the same price. This puts
all the leading brands on a parity and to
all appearances Indicates a firm market.
Back of this firmness, however, are cer
tain factors that are likely to undermine
Its strength. While there is something of
a shortage now. which In certain quarters
Is rather acute, the make Is Increasing to
a noticeable degree, and that It will con
tinue to Increase from now on Is to .be
taken tor granted. The Puget Sound mar
kets, according to the latest reports, have
been weakened by the receipt of a fresh
supply of Eastern butter and. It la feared,
may cease to be a buyer of Oregon butter.
Eastern butter la also coming Into thla
market more plentifully and Eastern dealers
are making renewed efforts to place stock
nere-
A year ago similar conditions prevailed In
the local Held and the creamery men. by
holding the prlca up too long, brought on
a flood of butter from the East with dis
astrous consequences. They are not likely
to pursue the same course this season.
Therefore, when stocks begin to pile up a
backward movement In the price can be
looked for.
BCYER8 AND SELLERS ARE . APART
But Only a Quart- of a Cent Prevent
Bnainea at the Board of Trade.
Only a quarter of a cent separated the
views ef wheat buyers and sellers at the
Board of Trade yesterday, bat this differ
ence proved Insurmountable, and In spite of
the efforts of Secretary Muller. no business
resulted. December wheat was offered at
93 V, 94 cents and the bids ranged from
92 to 93 V4 cents. September wheat was
nominal at 90S cents bid. Oats and barley
were firmer.
A branch office of the Western union
Telegraph Company was opened on the floor
of the Exchange yesterday for the benefit
of the members.
The spot grain market was quiet and tin
changed.
The receipts for the day were 131 cars
and S4.533 sacks wheat. 1 cars and 463
sacks oats. cars and 835 sacks bafley. 610
aacks flour and IS cars hay.

HOP PICKING BROWS VP LIGHT
Yields Are Not Coming Down as Well as
Expected.
Tard reports received yesterday were to
the effect that hops are coming down
lighter than expected. Picking will be
general all over the state today, aa many
of the larger growers will begin thrlr har
vest this morning. A few will not start
until Saturday or Monday In order that
the hops may ripen fully.
fntll we get more specific reports as
to the yield." said Herman Klaber yes
terday, "we are not Inclined to reduce our
estimate for Oregon below 90.000 to 100.000
bales.
"Reporta are coming from the East of
offers by dealers as low as 8 cents deliv
ered to brewers, which means that the
dealers expect to cover their short salea
at about 6 cent.".
Foreign cables received by Klaber, Woir
Netter yesterday were as follows: "Lon
don market closed dull with less Inquiry-"
"German market Is declining." "Bohemian
market closed dull with less Inquiry."
Pfelater Wustl. of Saax, write to Kla
ber. Wolf A Netter under date of August
22 thst the Austrian crop Is estimated at
330.000 centners, of which Bohemia will
produce about 260,000. They add: "There
are 25,OQ4 hectara (37.500 acres.) In hops
in Austria. Mostly favored are the yarda
of Saas and Auscha. On account of the
greatness of the world's crops and the
large stocks In brewers' hands, prices of our
hops will probably be a little lower than
In 1907."
Otto Heller, of Prague, sends to the firm
this estimate of continental crops: Austria.
317,000 to 350.000 centners; Germany, 620,-
000 to 563.O00. France. ' 70.000 to so.ooo:
Russia. 55.000 t 60.000; Belgium, 70.000
to 80.000; a total of 1.032.000 to 1,132.000
centners as against 1.005.000 centners grown
last year.
PEACHES HOLD STEADY IN PRICE
Receipts Are Large and the Demand Ac
tiveCantaloupes and Melons Weak.
Another big lot of peaches came In yes
terday, mostly small In slxe. Prices held
the same as on Tuesday. 30 to 70 centa,
with the bulk of sales at 50 cents. The
demand was strong and nearly all the ar
rivals were moved. Large receipts are ex
pected again today.
There was a good demand for grapes
and the market was steady. Tokays sold
at 81.60 and Muscats and Malagas at II 23.
Local grapes sold around 75 cents for the
most part. A car of California grapes waa
due, but failed to arrive. Cantaloupes and
watermelons were weak.
Ranch Eggs Are Very Scarce.
nAalnta nf nrpviin ,,,, v.aterdav were
only 118 cases. The demand waa good
for both ranch and Eastern stock, and
prices were firm
Poultry arrivals were not heavy, but the
Inquiry was slow and prices were barely
steady.
Chees Is moving fairly well at steady
prices.
Hops Light, bnt of Fine Quality.
CANBT. Or.. Sept. 9. (Special.) The
hop crop In Canby, Barlow and Macksburg
districts will not bale out over one-half
that of last year. With some of last year a
yards Dlowed ud entirely, others reduced
one-half or more and that part of the yards
that is left with many missing hills, it Is
easy to see that the crop output In these
districts Is going to be light. A view of the
yards within the last day or two shows
most yards with light yields, but good
quality. Picking Is well under way, the pries
being 40 cents per box.

ADVANCE IS STEADY
But Stock Market Rise Is
Charged to Speculation.
SALES MADE IN A CIRCLE
July Earnings of Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific Show Gains
Otct liast Yer Money
Market Unchanged.
NEW. TORK. Sept. 8. An unusual thing
about the current upward movement In
prices In the etock market la the freedom
with which admissions are heard of tho
part played by professionalism. Admonitions
to this effect are common In the news of
the market letters and advices sent out by
commission houses to their clients or pre
pared for general public circulation. A
small company of very wealthy capitalists
Is given credit for the Summer rise In
prlces.a and there Is no disguising the be
lief In' the large part played by manipula
tion in the advance. Even Mr. Harrlman
himself, while asserting his faith In the
value of his properties, aa reflected In the
advancing quotations, has given public ex
pression to his conviction that much of the
market activity In shares represents salea
''made In a circle."
There was little news today aa usual to
explain the upward movement of stocks.
Both Union Pacific and Southern Pacific
reported earnings for July and showed op
erating costs cut down sufficiently to more
than overcome the decline In gross earnins-n
and to establish gains over July of last
year. The Western Union statement of
earnings for the September quarter had
some effect on sentiment with Its transfor
mation of a deficit last year of $1,961,581
Into a surplus this year of $769,148. But last
year's operations of the company were
hampered by the telegraphers' strike, leav
ing the comparison of no value as a reflec
tion of business conditions In general.
The day's crop news did not quiet the
feelings of anxiety over the corn crop
Copper was lower in London. The day's
changes in the money market were not
perceptible In the quotations. Salea to real
ize profits had some slight effect In reduc
ing the days advances.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value

EXPECT BUYING OUTBURST
SEATTLE AVHEATDEALERS LOOK
FOR ACTIVE TRADING SOOX.
Transport Dlx Will Take Last of
Government's Oats and
Hay Supplies.
SEATTLE, Wash., Sept. 9. (Special.
The local wheat market Is nervous. While
there Is little trading on the exchange,
dealer feel that there should be more ac
tivity than Is apparent, and are momentar
ily expecting another buying outburst. Mil
lers do not believe that flour prices will
stay where thev are long.
The oats market is fairly strong, due
largely to the fact that the Government
transport Dlx is soon to load 1500 tons
for the Philippines. This will clean up
the Government's contracts out of last sea
on' crop. Considerable hay 1 also to go
out on the Dlx.
Fruits were weak today In all depart
ments. Large quantities of peaches forced
prices down in spite of a heavy demand.
Poultry held firm at yesterday's prices.
Veal is not quite as strong. Cooler weather
has brought out heavier receipts.
