There are going to be. m developments In the hop market in the next few days, or present Indications are decepll. The un dercurrent of the market Is exceedingly strong, and It would occaalon no surprise If quotations on tha new crop were lifted sev eral cents In the near future. There were orders yesterday at 21 cents In thl state. In Washington and In California. There Is also good reason to belleva that soma of these order are for export account; In fact, the sale of a contract reported In these columns Sunday Is understood to have been for account of a Olasgow dealer. C.tmatle conditions yesterday were perfect for the growing crop. A large number of yards recan picking; In rarloni parti of tha Valley. vis Tork bop crop conditions are reported by the Waterrille Times of August 24 as follows: The rains of last week hrve brightened un the hop yards In this vicinity consid erably and they certainly ok good at the present time. Owing .to a not over vigorous foliage the hops stand out clesrly and look clean and bright, and thus far are entirely free from lice or Might- If nothing occurs to change the condition of things there wilt be an extra fins quality of New Tork State hops picked this Fall. Growers should, however, realise that green Picked hops do not make first quality. Much Judgment should be exercised In both time and manner of picking writing until they are ripe and then picking them clean. The best Judges say that at the present rate the yards are maturing they should not be picked for two wetks. Hops are later, and. therefore, greener than usual at this time of year. The Cooperstown. K. T-. Farmer. of August 20, said: William S. Bailey, of Springfield, baa sold to G. Hyde Clarke his luou hops at 2K" per pound, Heavy rains of the present week have suppr:cd the motstura the vines needed. The crcp promises the best qual ity Jhat It has had in 2 vears. The quan t.:y from present Indications may equal tiiat of last year. HEAVY TRADING IN PEACHES. Bat Movement Would Be Ijirgcr If Price Vere Lower. -pr trade In peaches waa heavy yester day, but receipts were large and not all the stock was disposed of.

ALL PARTS OF LIST GAIN rnion Pacific Is tho Leader In the Movement OptlmUtlc Traffic Predictions by Eastern Railroad Officials. NEW YORK, Aug. 30. The clearing up of the atmosphere of gloomy apprehensions re garding the condition of E. H. Harriman waa manifest In financial circles well In advance of the opening of the atock market today. The frllht which seized the atock market community Friday right would have been dis sipated before the market closed Saturday., had the session extended to the afternoon hour usual on week days. Aa it was. the after noon period on Saturday and the Sunday In terval snw a steady growth of confidence that the danger of Mr. Harriman') condition had been exaggerated. The frankness of friends and members of the family of the financier. In contrast with the mystery which had been wrapped about the subject elnce his return from Euror and disappearance from public view, take the ground from under the feet of alarmists and rumor mongers. The over-extended short interest waa un serious, aa the first prices quoted at th, Stock Exchange this morning showed an Instantane ous cancellation of a great part of the heavy losses suffered in the sharp decline of Sat urday. The hort themselves contributed to thlsi showing by their scramble to obtain stocks, warned by the tenor of the news from Arden. and the preliminary advances estab lished in the London market before trading had been resumed In New lork. me ttarn- WA nninrflllv most affected, but lUMIl ffn-nww " ' the buoyant tone was common to the whole list. tuning gains of 1 to more o points over the closing price of Saturday were general throughout. fnlon Pacific was a dominant Influence In the market throughout the day. Its occa sional reactions on profit-taking brought a pause in the general movement and when ita advance wu renewed aggressively, ins " list responded, although in lesser degree. Union Pacific touuhed 2o2 and closed only M below that. There were no new features In the news to explain the recovery In prices, aelde from the changed view oHE. II. Harrlman's physi cal condition. Some of the Eastern rail road officials advanced the suggestion that two more weeks of the rate of expansion of tho freight movement In the last fort night will see a shortage of ears on their lines. The seasonable Xightentng of the money market, which continues, and the unstable level to which prices had advanced, are given their due Influence in the reaction. With tho covering of a large line of shorts, the keen ness of the late demand abated considerably, and the appearance of Mr. Harrlman's dic tated etatement was coincident with a final rally to a strong uprising. Convertible and speculative bond were steady. Total sales 3.200.0U0. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

CAUSES BREAK IN PRICES Declines at All tho leading Grain Centers of Europe Also Add to the Weakness at Chicago. Xo Export Trade. CHICAGO, Aug. 80. Wheat was weak' all day. owing to general selling, based on bearish reports of various descriptions, chief among which were declines at all leading European markets, including Liverpool, where prices were off ld to ld. The surprisingly small decrease in the visible supply of wheat In the United States helped to steady the mar ket In the final hour. The liberal movement of wheat in this country wan again an Important factor In the situation. The primary receipts were consid erably lrr excess of the arrivals for the cor responding day a year ago, a large part of the grain being reported at Minneapolis. Large quantities of wheat were reported en route to the latter point and arrivals there tomor row, lt was estimated, would be much more liberal. As a result of these predictions, cash wheat at all Northwestern centers was ex tremely heavy. Continued reluctance of for eigner to purchase American wheat also had a depressing effect. Great celling pressure wae on the September delivery and that option manifested the greatest weakness. Corn, was weak. Declines of lc to lc in the price of the cash grain helped to weaken the options. The May delivery displayed rela tive strength and closed at a gain of sS c, but other options were unchanged to c lower. Trade In oats was quiet. The market closed with prices unchanged to c higher. Provisions closed 5c higher to 7o lower. The leading futures ranged aa follows: WHEAT. ' Open. High. , Low. Close.
