past week ha. enabled harvesting to ad
vance rapidly and much of the rye crop

There axe fewer complaints heard regarding
the outlook for wneat. The outlook for oats
Is good.
Roumama. Hungary and Italy The recent
showers reported have been beneficial to
corn. The condition of wheat 1. unchanged,
which wa reported last week as being un
favorable. Russia It is genrally xpected that there

RECORD MOVEMENT IN WOOL MARKET
Cloee to 40.000,000 rounds Sold In Boston
Last Week.
There was a veritable boom In the Bos
ton wool market last week, according to
the Boston New. Bureau. Between 35,0(0,
000 and 40.000.000 pounds were disposed, of
by dealers, which la the largest amount, of
the staple to be sold In any single week
for several years. During the week the
American Woolen Company cleaned up the
market of Montana wools by the purchase
of about 25.OO0.000 pounds. It Is estimated
that In the four markets. Boston, Philadel
phia. Chicago and St. Louis, over 50.000,000
pounds, or about IS per cent of the entire
domestic cUp of the country were disposed
of rn the six days of last week.
Of the total American clip of between
Rno.000.000 and 310.000,000 pounds this year.
Boston dealers secured somewhat like 200.
000.000 pounds. Of this amount they have
already sold to consumers between 50 and
60 per cent, or around 100.000.0i10 pounds.
As a rule dealers are not sold up to this
extent until the middle of October. In
fact. It 1. considered satisfactory if sales
by . the middle of August amount to 10 to
15 per cent of the total holdings.
In the recant pjriod of activity, which
ha. extended over a period of four or five
weeks, and reached Its greatest height last
week, the American Woolen Company baa
taken by far the greater part of the wool
transferred. While prices were practically
CO per cent higher than those ruling a year
ago and are In fact near record prices, they
are only 5 to 10 per cent higher than In
1907.
HOP CONTRACT MADE AT 0 CENTS.
Condition of the Growing Oregon Crop,
Red Spider In Germany.
Word was received from Independence
yesterday that Miles Porterfleld had con
tracted to deliver 20,000 pounds of new
hops to Klaber-Wolf A Netter at 20 cents a
pound. This is the first new business that
las been reported for some time.
The crep news that came In yesterday
was more or less conflicting. While the
lice are decreasing in parts of Washington
County, further up on the west side there Is
little or no Improvement to be seen, while
on the east side of the river some localities
are raid to be In bad shape. The safety of
the crop, as a whole, depends on the weather
that prevails from now until the end of
harvest.
A letter received yesterday from Wild,
ICeame A Co., of London, estimated the
English crop at 1S0.0OO to 220.000 cwt. The
lower of these two figures is 20 000 cwt.
below the lowest prediction heretofore made
by any of the English dealers. A London
cable yesterday reported the weather In
England unfavorable, while a German cable
said red spider had appeared on the con
tinent. ESTIMATES OF THE APPLE CROP.

RALLY AT THE CLOSE
Wall Street Cheered by News
From Harriman.
SAYS CONDITION IS GOOD
Rebound in Prices of Union Pacific;
Southern Pacific and Other
Shares That Had Been
Depressed.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23. From the Irregu
lar and reactionary course of prices today.
It is clear that the stock market is still in
a highly sensitive state and depends largely
upon the developments of the next few days.
Foremost among these Is the health of
H. Harriman, concerning which the usual
conflicting rumors were again current.
The day brought the usual grist of over
Sunday news. Traffic officials of tho lead
ing railroads in the Middle West are virtu
ally unanimous in their declarations tnat
business Is steadily mounting higher, In
some Instances beyond all expectations, with
an especially large movement in merchan
dise. Berlin cables were optimistic.
Taking its cue from London, where Amer
icans especially Union Pacific were active
and strong, the New York market began
operations in much the same fashion. The
advantage was fleeting, however, as vigorous
selling of the Harriman Issues soon wiped
out all advances and by noon prices of
Union Paclflc and Southern Pacific were
under last Saturday's lowest quotations,
while strong pressure was being exerted
upon Reading and United States Steel.
Coincident with the decline In the Har
riman Issues was a statement that no
changes would occur In the dividends of
Union Pacific and Southern Paclno at the
directors' meetings tomorrow.
In sharp contrast to the other railway
shares was the strength of the Gould issues
Texas & Paclflc Wabash and Denver &
Rio Grande.
Prices rallied somewhat before the last
hour, when the "street" received word that
Mr. Harriman had sent assurances to his
associates of bis "good condition." For a
brief time this news was without effect, but
In the final trading there were sharp re
bounds In Union Paclflc. Southern Paclflc
and United States Steel, xwrhlch carried them
well above the previous high prices of the
day. Other stocks moved in sympathy, in
cluding Reading. Rock Island. Chicago &
Northwestern and Chesepeake & Ohio. The
rally was in progress when the market
closed.
Aside from a shipment of $200,000 gold
to Panama to meet canal pay roll re
quirements, the money market developed
no new features. Call money varied from
2 4 to 2 4 per cent, but time accommoda
tions were in light demand, with no change
The bond market was easy, with only
moderate dealings. Total sales, par value,
$3,285,000. Government bonds, steady. ,

erage 1000 Cars Daily.
CHICAGO, Aug. 23. Wheat was subject
to general seeing pressure all day and an
extremely heavy tone prevailed. Selling
at the opening was inspired chiefly by de
clines "In the price at all leading grain cen
ters of Europe, due partly to heavy ship
ments from Russia, but later the unusually
liberal movement In this country, particular
ly In the Northwest, was the principal weak
ening faotor. The predictions were made
that the arrivals at Minneapolis and Du
luth would soon average 1000 cars a day.
During the day September sold between
97c and 99c, while December ranged
between 94c and 5c. The market
closed with prices only a trifle above tho
low mark. September being at 64o and
December at 94 c.
An official prediction of showers In Illi
nois, Iowa and Nebraska prompted liberal
selling of corn, which resulted in declines
of more than lc in all deliveries. The cloee
was weak at almost tho bottom, lc to
19s14c below Saturday's close.
Liberal receipts, present and prospeotlve,
caused active selling of oats by cash In
terests, resulting In a sharp decline In all
options. Th market closed weak with
prices lo to 14c below the previous
close.
Provisions were Arm on a 60 to lOo ad
