MPORTS OF WOOL
Big Business Done Last Year
in Foreign Clips.
ALMOST THE RECORD
On-Third of the Product Coimumcd
in the United States Is Grown In
Foreign Countries Oregon
Hop Crop Is Expanding.
Woo Importations Into the United 6tate In
th. fiscal year Just ended exceeded those of
any earlier year except ISflT. when abnormal
import at lone were male In view of the pros
pective transfer of "wool from the free to the
dutiable lLat. The total quantity of wool
Imported In the fiscal year lurl ended wu
946.S0O.OCO pounds, against 1:6.000.000 in 19C8.
203.000.0CO In H9.0O0.0OO In 1905 and
8il.000.000 In 1887.
About one-third of the wool consumed In
the United State U Imported, the remaining-two-thirds,
speaking; in general terms, belnf
produced at home. Flfrure Juat complied
ly the bureau of statistics of the Department
of Commmaroe and Labor show that the
quantity of wool Imported Into the United
Etatea In the decade ending with the fiscal
year 1908 waa 1.824.000.000 pounda, of which
.bout 40.000.000 pounda waa re-exported. The
quantity produced In the United S la tea during
the ten years ending with the calendar year
1908 waa Z963.00O.00O pounda, of which
about 5. 000. 000 pounds were exported. This
snakes the total consumption of wool In. the
United States In the decade Just ended about
8.750.000.000 pounda. of which about 38 per
cent was Imported and the remainder pro
Cured at home.
During the Immediately preceding decade
that ending with the calendar year 1898 and
the fiscal year 1S98-99 the wool Imports ag
ar, rated, in round terms. 1.600. 000, 0X pound,
and domestic production 2.S30.ono.ono pounds:
and deducting the small quantities exported,
the consumption of wool In the United States
during the decade named Is found to be about
4.4O0.O00.0O0 pounds, of which 35 per cent
was of foreign production end the remainder
produced In the United States.
It thus appears that the average annual
consumption of wool In the United States dur
ing the decade Just ended waa about 475.000.
C pounds, of which a little over one-third
waa imported and the remainder produced at
home, and that In the Immediately preceding
decade the average annuA consumption of
wool was 440.000.000 pounds, of which the
importations and domeetio production showed,
respectively, about the same proportions as
In the decade Just ended.
The value of the wool Imported Into the
United States during the fiscal year Just end
ed was, according to figures published by
the bureau of statistics. 45.00O,O0O. against
t4I.5C0.000 In 1907. 4,2SO.0OO in 1805 and
IS3.2SO.OO0 in 187. the year of the highest
record of quantities Imported. The stated
value of the wool Imported Into the United
Elates during the decade ending with the fis
cal year 1909 was f213.0O0.O0O, and In the
decade ending June 30, 1S99, 360.500.000.
Of the wool Imported Into the United Slates
during the year Just ended, the United King
dom supplied over $19,000,000 worth, or more
than 42 per cent of the total; South America
about $8,000,000 worth and Asia and Oceania
ver il3.0O0.0OO worth.
HOP CBOr MAT BR 100.000 J1AX.ES.
That the Quality Will Be Superior Is Now
Almost Assured.
A crop of 1C0.0O0 bales of hops in Oregon
this year la a possibility. The dealers have
rot got their Ideas up to that figure yet, but
they are all Inclined to raise their late esti
mates, and a cumber of them concede that
the crop of last year, which waa about 93.000
bales, will, be surpassed. The frequent show
ers during the Summer months brought the
backward vines to about their normal condi
tion, while the fruitage Is better now than
It was a year ago at this time. The burrs
re not only better developed and more even
ly distributed, but are heavier In lupulin than
they were last year. It fa also likely that a
fuller percentage of the crop will be gathered,
unless something unfavorable happens at the
laet moment.
The crop scare, which agitated some of
the hopmen a short time ago, has about passed
wax. Reports at hand yesterday were that
yards which recently were seriously overrun
with lice are now almost clean, notwithstand
ing the fact that they were not sprayed. The
hot sun was responsible for the eradication of
vermin In such yard. In other yards, where
the vines were sprayed, conditions are re
garded as quite satisfactory.
Should Oregon have a full crop of hops of
good quality. It will be a matter of congratu
lation to all concerned, for It Is practically
soured bow that high prices will prevail as
result of the short crops In Europe.
The market at the moment is quiet, as Is ts
be expected with the picking season so near
at hand. One or two small contracts at 20
cents are the only transactions reported In
this state In the past week.
TONE OF WHEAT MARKET STEADY.
Fair Amount of Business Reported by the
Local Trade. t
Trade la the wheat market yesterday was
of good proportions, though It could not be
called an active market. A lively trade Is
looked for next week, when the best part of
threshing will be over In the principal dis
tricts. The tone of the market yesterday
was out steady and the Impression ts gain
ing ground that the bottom of the market
has been reached. Bluestem was quoted by
most buyers at 83 cents and club at 88 cents,
though some of the dealers held that 87 cents
eas full value for the latter.
Local receipts, in cars, were reported by
the Merchants Exchange as follows:
Wheat Barley Flour Oats Hay
Monday 31 2 1 1
Tuesday 21 4 A 9
Tear auo 42 A .. 2 22
Total last week . . . .64 10 9 14 93
WARM WEATHER SELLS FKt IT FAST.
Front Street Finds It Difficult to Get Suf
ficient Supply.
The warm weather has caused a strong
demand for fruits of all kinds and the
Front-street dealers find It difficult to get
supply sufficient for their needs. Tester
day's receipts were sgaln large but every
thing that was In good marketable con
dition cleaned up. Six cars of watermelons
were received and sold about as fast as
loaded.
The stock of peaches, both Oregon and
California, was Inadequate, but better sup.
ply Is expected from Ashland today. Craw
fords and Elbertas held firm at tl box.
There was a good demand for fancy grapes,
both Muscats and Tokays, but they were
scarce. A good many Malagas wene offer
ing and the best brought $1.25, but a large
portion of the last car was poor In quality,
having been picked in the wet. Black
graces wars abundant. The supply of black
berries continues light and they held firm
at 11.65 3 1-75 per crate.
The tomato market is weakening under
more liberal receipts, both of local and
of "California stock.
Good Demand for Poultry.
The demand for poultry exceeds the sup
ply and prices are ruling very flfm. Chick
ens move at 15 to 1( cents.
There Is a good demand for strictly fresh
eggs at 27" cents, but storage and Eastern
eggs are harder to dispose of.
Butter and cheese continue firm at un
changed quotations.

tendency manifested by the stock market
yesterday became more pronounced today
with -early declines In a majority of the
standard Issues. There was a recurrence of
rumors regarding the health of E. H. Har
rlman and the long continued drouth In the
Nebraska corn belt excited some apprehen
sion. There was a series of bear attacks which
converged largely around the Harriman Is
sues. The only prominent stocks to display
steadiness were New Tork Central and
Atchison.
There was a general late recovery which
had its Inception in a fresh buying move
ment In Union Pacific, The balance of the
active list moved along in sympathy, ths
net result being gains which ranged from
fractions In the Harriman issues to 3 points
In Chicago Northwestern and a point or
more In Atchison, New York Central and
the Steel Issues.
There was a statement from a represen
tative of the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion predicting a revival of the enormous
railroad traffic of 190 7.
Iu international banking circles there was
talk of a resumption of gold export to
Argentina. The money market was strong
with Indications of a stiffening of prices.
Call loans were again made at 2 per cent,
but this was the maximum figure.

WILL mm FLOUR
SORTHERX MILLS ARE ABOUT
READY TO RESUME..
Fair-Sized Export Orders Booked.
Strong Demand for Fruit.
Butter Is Firm. .
SEATTLE, Wash.. Aug. IT. (Special.)
Flour mills in Seattle and mills in Eastern
Washington will be In full operation by Sep
tember 1. The Centennial Mill Company will
start ito Ritzville mill tomorrow. Its Tacoma
mills next Monday and the Seattle mill August
30. The Hammond mill here commenced grind
ing in a small way Monday. Wheat receipts to
date have been too light to Justify grinding.
Millers have not made up their minds whether
to bleach for the home trade or not. Several
firms, however, will bleach for the export
tratie'. Some fair-sized orders for export flour
on a basis of $4.10 have been booked. The
season has opened much better than A year
ago.
Twelve -carloads .of watermelons received
hero yesterday and this morning were all
cleaned up tonight. Some stock today sold
as high as 2 cents, although 1C was the
general price. . Grapes are lower, with $2
about the top on the fanciest varieties. Owing
to heavy supplies of potatoes, prices have
dropped to a cent a pound.
Cants sold generally today at $2. The qual
ity of the receipts is better and the -demand
Is improving. Peaches are arriving too green.
Butter was firm today. Eggs were easier
on heavier receipts.
Considerable uneasiness is felt in Jobbing
circles over the delay In putting out salmon
prices, since the pack Is now pretty well de
termined. QUOTATIONS AT SAN FRANCISCO,
