WORLD'S HOP CROP
No Larger Than That of Last
Year.
AND IT MAY BE SMALLER
Between Futures and Spots In the
Local Market Clem Horst to
Try His Picking Machine
In Oregon.
Aa It 1 now between the contract and
the spot market In hops, there Is practi
cally no business passim- Almost every
fanner has found means to harvest his
crop and Is under no necessity to enter Into
. ). growers disposed
..11 nirked hons until ballni nas
r.nh.r. Oni or two small deals,
have been put throusr.. but the real open
Ins transaction Is yet to be recorded. It la
believed there are enouh orders in the
market to Insure activity when the ball la
once set rolllnc.
Klaber. Wolf A Netter received the fol
lowing cables from London yesterday:
Ensllsh crop la coming1 down as esti
mated. Choice firm, other qualities weak."
Mannheim market No change In market
to report."
-Nuremburg market Choice Arm, other
quantise weak."
Pflster WustU of Saaa. under date of
September 8. estimate the world's hop crop
ot 1908 as follows:

Thla total compares with 1.930.000 cent
ners produced tn 1807. or an Increase of
135. 0OO centners over last year. .
The world's crop does not exceed that
of last year." said Herman Klaber yester
dav. "Mister Wnstrs estimate of the
English crop Is 50.000 centners too hla-h.
Their American estimate la 80.000 centners
tn exceea of what will be produced. These
corrections In their estimates will bring the
world's yield down to last year's figures.
Furthermore, since their estimate was Is
sued, there has been unfavorable weather
on the Continent, which will no doubt re
duce the yield, so there will be less hops
grown in the world thla year than last.
"Picking returns coming In show an un
usually light yield In Oregon and we are
compelled to make a further reduction In
our estimates. Our maximum figures for
the American crop now ar:

"Western Washington will not raise to

practically all sold."
Clem Horst'a hop picking machine la now
being set up on his yard at Eola. where
It will be tested In a few days with Oregon
bops. A sufficient quantity has been left
unpicked to give it a good trial.
An Interesting report comes from Enr-

lish hopgrowers for a term of five years
for 5000 pockets of hops per year at 100s

per pound. Guinness brewery consumes
100.000 pockets of hops annually and uses
6 sounds to the barrel.

OA8CARA BARK MARKET ADVANCING
Demand From the East Improves North-
srest Peel light.
Tbe days for cheap caacara bark are over.
The market, which has been gradually In
creasing In firmness for several months, baa
now become strong, and with an active buy
ing movement on the part of Eastern con
sumers, there Is reason to believe that the
upward trend of prices will continue.
The peel In the Northwest this year '
rery light, dealers estimating It at only 15
to 90 per cent of the normal output. Spec
ulators are out securing all the stumpage
they can. so It la not probable that the
low prices of tbe last few years will be
seen again. Tn the local market sales are
befog made at 8 cent and upward to East
ern buyers, and as orders are Increasing. It
Is believed that Eastern manufacturers'
stocks are email. Tbe supply remaining on
, tbe Pacific Coast is in strong bands.

Poultry receipts were light yesterday, and
with a strong demand, the market waa very
firm. Hens sold readily at cents and
Springs at 14 cents. Geese were also in

WEAK SPOTSERASED
Upward Movement Is Again
Started in Stocks.
BUT TONE IS UNSETTLED
Rumors of Some Coming Announce
ment That Will Benefit the Mar
ket Call Money Rates Easier.
Bonds Are Heavy.
Nir.tr tobk. Kent. 18 The stock mar
ket today showed the relief offered by the
speculative liquidation which haa been ef
fected during the week. The pressure was
lightened, and the requirement of the short
interest left uncovered was sufficient to
cause some rally. The tone was unsettled
and uncertain, and the movement of prices
straggled and mixed to an unusval degree,
Ievelopments outside the technical specu
lative position of the market were not im
portant, except for an aasler tone In the
rate for call money.
Signs of further weakness were to be seen
here and there In the market. The lack of
action toward a disbursement of the Great
Northern ore certificates aroused the rear
that the dividend la to be omitted. Amer
ican Smelting continued to suffer from the
excess of the former speculation and in
some degree from a further marking down
In the prices of copper. Reports or copper
trade conditions were not encouraging and
the lapse of the demand for that metal
gives credit to reports of a similar lull in
the iron and steel trade.
A revival of the subject of increased
freight mum ! considered significant also
of continued unsatisfactory conditions of
railroad earnings. On the other hand. In
dustrious use waa made at the Stock Ex
change of rumors of some coming announce
ment that was to benefit the market, the
nature of which was not disclosed. These
rumors Increased the disposition of the
shorts to cover their contracts and with the
subsidence of pressure on the weak spots
the upward movement gained In dennlte
ness. Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value.
$1,970,000. United States bonds were un
changed on call.

fllled with the gropes In eight. Rush orders
were sent to both Oregon and Eaetern
Washington to get stock here for Saturday if

Potatoes are still weak on heavy receipts.
Oregon eggs were advanced' to 30c on the

gon eggs have been coming in better shape
lately and there la a better demand.
Wheat went up another ?c this morning,
closing on the Merchants' Exchange at 95c.

The call for bids by the Government for
19.000 tons of forage has already caused a
decidedly firmer tone in hay and oats.
GRAIN CROP OF WASHINGTON.
Stats Inspectors' Estimates of Wheat, Oats
and Barley Yields.
TACOMA, Wash., Sept. 18 State Grain
Inspectors King and Arrasmith estimate
the Washington grain crop at 2ll.i00.oou
bushels, which Is 27 per cent le?5 than last
year's. Its value Is about ,23.000.000. which
Is only $3,500,000 less than last year, owing
to the fine quality and good prices
After thorough investigation, the state
Grain Commission has decided not to change
the schedule of grades. The acreage this
year Is 313.000. 200 above laBt year s. and
the crop would have been tremendous but
for hot winds, beginning the middle of
MThe oat crop Is 7,350,000, about 2,000,000
abTne barleycrop is 5,700,000. or 260,000
above last year's.
The Inspectors say the Eastern Washing
ton banks never had so much money, and
that farmers never were so well fixed. They
regard the recent, panic as a blessing, in
asmuch as it hindered the farmers from
pursuing the unwarranted fad for expan
sion, begun a year ago. Last year's average
price of wheat waa 65 cents, and thla year s,
so far, is 77 cents.
