HOLD FOR ADVANCE
Eastern Reports Cause Better
Feeling in Wheat Trade.
BUT BUSINESS IS SMALL
Ilalnfall In the Interior Is General.
Foreign Crop Conditions.
Active Demand for
Green Produce.
The local grain offices had report! from
the interior yesterday that the rainfall
wm general. Coming at the opportune time
It made the prospects decidedly bright;
No weakness was occasioned, however, as
these conditions were more than offset by
the strong; ad-rices for the East. The
big advance, at Chicago led to a much bet
ter feeling on the part of speculative holders
and growers, who are now more inclined
to hold on and ask for better prices. Bids
were not raised by local buyers and busi
ness was small. Bluestem was quoted at
tl cents and club wheat was held at
78 cents, though there was a sale of club
at San Francisco on tha basis of 76 cents
I. o. b.
Foreign crop conditions are summarized
by tha Liverpool Corn Trade News as fol
lows:
United Kingdom The outlook for the
crops is fair. The weather continues sea.
sonable.
France There have been heavy storms.
with excessive moisture, and there are some
complaints of rust and a thin plant. In
the north and east the outlook is fair to
good.
Germany The rye -jrop is suffering from
continued drouth as well as Spring crops,
but Winter wheat is claimed to be un
harmed. There is an improved foreign de
mand. .
Roumanla Heavy rains still continue to
fall, which have become excessive In some
parts and causing deterioration to the grow
ing crops.
Russia The weather In the southwest is
very favorable and tbe crop outlook good.
Supplies at the ports are small.
Italy In the south there has been a heavy
rain, which is unfavorable for the crops; in
the north, the crop outlook has improved,
while in the center the outlook is only
moderate.
India Indications point to an early visit
of the monsoon, which has caused moderate
selling by holders.' .
Argentine The weather In the south is
very -dry, which is causing some anxiety.
There was not much doing in the local
oats or barley markets, and both were
quoted weak.
Local receipts In cars were reported by
the Merchants' Exchange as follows:

HOP INDUSTRY IX AUSTRIA.
Special Protection for the Saaz, Auscha and
Danba Product.
In answer to an inquiry. Consul J. I. Brit
tain furnishes the advanced statistics cover
ing the hops and hop trade of Austria
Hungary during the past year.
It is said that the finest quality of hops
produced in Europe are grown in Bohemia,
vis, Saaz, Auscha and Dauba, respectively.
In order to protect the two first-named of
these from fraudulent imitations, there is
a special law which authorizes the official
inspection and sealing of each package of
hops therefrom, the cost of which is about
51 cents per 220 pounds. In order to pre
vent frauds the Bohemian hop producers are
endeavoring to procure the enactment of an
inspection and sealing law, which will ap
ply to all hops produced In Bohemia, as
well as those from Saaz and Auscha. The
exports of Bohemian hops to the United
States in 1908 amounted to $492,271, against
a total of 686.837 In 1909. While the value
was greater in- 1909 the quantity was less
than in 1908. .
Owing to the failure of the crop in 1909
the prices were very high. During the hop
season in 1908, September, October. Novem
ber and December, the average price was
$18.07, $16.24, $14 and $11. IT. respectively,
and in 1909. $40.60, $48.72, $50.34 and $48.61
for the same months. At times choice
Saaz hops sold In 1909 at $60 and even $70
per 100 pounds.
The following statement shows the acrer
age planted and the yield of hops in Austria
Hungary in 1909: '

Fresli Eggs Are Scarce and Firmer.
No Change in the Butter
Market.
SEATTLE, Wash., June 20: (Special.)
Twelve carloads constituted the fruit receipts
today, of which cantaloupes1 predominated.
Strawberrries were stronger and higher. The
supply is becoming dally more reduced, while
the demand tor canning purposes is Increas
ing. There waa an uplift to $1.50(31.75 per
crate. Peaches dropped from $11.10 to 86
cents to $1. The supply is practically equal
to the demand, the quality being universally
good. The first Wenatchees appeared on the
market today 'and readily changed hands at
$1.50.
The potato andonion market, with a car of
onions) and seven carloads of potatoes as the
new arrivals today, was unchanged.
Local fancy eggs stiffened slightly , on In
creased scarcity. The market is being sup
piled with Oregon and Iowa and Minnesota
eggs, which are regarded by buyers as of
equal quality. There was no change in the
butter market and cheese was firm.
Today was a first-class clean-up for late
Saturday arrivals of veals, the street having
been depleted of its 3.6-hour-old supply. The
poultry season for Springs, with a' general
small size and light weight, has reopened.
Tho quantity, however, has been fair.
