Bulk of Crop in Harrisburg
Section Moved.
BUYERS PAY 22 AND 221-2
Demand for Later Hops Is Held in
Check by TTncertalnty as to
Vields in This Country
and Europe.
All the remaining crepe of Fuggle heps
but three in the Harrtsburr; section vera
bought yesterday. The prices paid wara 13
and 22 cant.
No trading waa reported In tha late crop.
Thera wara order at 18 to 19 cents tor con
tract, but growers would not aell at these
prices. It looks now as If operations will
be suspended until tha hops ara In the bale.
Conflicting advices ara arriving aa to the
alia of tha European crops and this keeps
buyers in the air. Letters from abroad
also Indicate that there Is the same differ
ence of opinion aa to tha probable extent
of the American yield. Consequently the
market la in a waiting attitude and until
something more than mere guesses can be
put out. buyers are certain to pursue a
conservative policy.
A cable received front Alost yesterday re
sorted that in tha Hallertau and other im
portant districts the crop waa suffering
from a bad attack of red spider and tha
weather was hot. 'The crop waa coming
down below estimates. In Belgium 150
marks was paid, which i equivalent to 84
cents. These are hops that compete with
Americans in the London market.
Brewers ara always Inclined to take a
bearish view of the crop situation, yet the
London Brewers' Journal says:
"We have rarely experienced so much
difficulty In estimating the crop as we have
this season. It Is abundantly palpable that
there cannot be such a large production as
there was In 1912 namely. S73.43S cwts.:
tha difficulty Is to judge approximately how
much short of that quantity It will be. We
shall, perhaps, be somewhere near the mark
If wa put it at about 800.000 cwts. more
or less.
"The demand for consumption, acting on
excessively small stocks, has caused prices
to rise considerably. The position la ac
centuated by reports from the Continent. Ac
cording to all estimates there will be a
serious shortage' there and instead of this
country taking from that quarter some
200.000 cwts., as we did last year, the Con
tinent. In all probability, this year will be
Importers from us."
Tha Maidstone Oasatte of August IS said
of tha crop prospect In England:
The natural progress of the plant has
been seriously delayed and It le not yet pos
sible to say how small the yield may prove
to be. Tha one thing certain Is that the
crop will be considerably below an average,
and It must fall short of last year's yield
by 20 or 25 per cent per acre at least. A
good deal of speculation Is taking place In
the shape of bets and even money has been
laid against an all-round Euglish crop of
m cwts. per acre. To sum up the general
r. ports from all districts, growers may. If
granted favorable weather, eventually se
pura a crop of about 9 cwts. per acre, but
If the cold snap continues much longer even
this estimate may have to be considerably
reduced.
"If the English yield is less than half a
Ion per acre (which seems now to be a
certainty and the Centlnental yield only
equals half that of last year, prices equal
to those secured late In the season of 1911
will be more than Justified."
A circular received from Cattley. Grldley
A Co., of London, says:
"In spite af the cool and cloudy weather
those plantations that have been thorough
ly cleansed of the blight have made prog
ress during the week, and, with normal tem
peratures and conditions, give promise of
quite a full average crop, though scarcely
as heavy as last year. The slack and blight
ed plantations show little change for the
better. The harvest will be rather later than
usual. Continental reports speak of more
favorable weather conditions and some Im
provement In most districts, though blight
has dona much damage. Estlmataa still
suggest a good half of last year's produce
on the whole. All markets are quiet, but
firm, with stocks of last year's and old hops
very short Indeed.'
CANTALOCPES FBOM PAYETTE COME
Peaches In Large Supply and Active De
mand Tomato Lower.
The first car of Payette Valley canta
loupes was started for Portland yesterday
and will reach thia city Monday. The Idaho
cantaloupes long ago established a reputa
tion for excellency and their arrival on
the market Is always eagerly awaited by
tha trade. Usually they sell at high
prices, but the growers have made reason
able quotations this year and the first ship
ment will be put on sale here at 11.75 w 2 a
crate.
Tha market waa well supplied with other
cantaloupes yesterday and $1.00 was the
top price. Inferior cants sold aa low as
$5 cents. Turtock cantaloupes of good
quality are still coming along and sell well.
Two cars were received yeaterday and two
mora are rolling.
Tha peach market was in good shape,
with a big atock on hand and an active de
mand. Among the receipta waa tha flrat
car of Taklma Elbertas, which sold at S3
ta TO cents.
Tha tlrst straight car of Muscat grapes
also arrived and they were quoted at $19
1.25 a crate.
Tha banana market could not well be
weaker. Seven cars were unloaded yester
day "and nve more are due today.
Thera haa been an overstock of tomatoes
an tha market all the week. Yesterday two
full ears arrived from Dlllard and prices
went to pieces. Offerings were made at
low as 30 cents a box. '
A car of sweet potatoes arrived and they
were quoted lower at 82 85 a crate.
EXPORT IXOrn TRADE SLOWS DOWN
lacertalnty as ta Freight Rates Checke
Business.
Owing to tbo uncertainty regarding the
steamship ratea to prevail In October and
November, export flour buying, which has
not been brisk at any time this season, has
some to almost a complete step. It Is be
lieved that when the freight altuation Is
settled the Japanese buyers will show in
terest In the market, and It la alas likely
that within a month the Chinese demand
will revive.
Tha wheat market continues quiet. So
gar as club Is concerned, the undertone of
the market is easy and 79 cents is quoted
as full value, but bluestem is firm at 63
' cents. The spread between club and blue
stem is gradually widening and It is net
thought that It will get closer.

ALMOND" ARE ADVANCING RAPIDLY
California Reports Short Crop and Market
Tancnee IS Cents.
Tha almond market la advancing rapidly
because of tha short crop In California, i ..e
present local quotation on IXLs Is 20 cents.
Foreign advlcea eay the crop of Tarragona
almonds will be a large one. and it may be
that Importations will ba brought Into tha
Western markets.
Walnuts continue firm and scarce. Man
churian nuta are being largely used on the
Coast In the absence of native stock.
As the time for the heavy consumption
of Brazil nuts draws near, tha position as
regards this commodity becomes more clear
ly defined, and It la easy to eee that the
stock of good nute of the new crop la not
sufficient for the usual Fall requirements
and prices naturally have a hardening ten
dency. An advance of half a cent a pound
both for the medium Paras and the large
Manaos Is noted. Stocks are small, and with
any ordinary demand would become
exhausted long before the holiday trade
waa actually over.
Poultry Scarce and Higher.
The poultry market was firm and higher.
Not enopgh chickens were received to fill
orders, and choice hens sold readily at le
cents.
Dressed meate were also firm, with fancy
veal bringing 18 centa. Pork was quoted
at 12 cents, with an upward tendency.
The egg market was firm at unchanged
prices. There were no new developments la
the butter or cheese trades.
Whits Beans Are Weaker.-
The crop of beans In California, while
short of last year's. Is nevertheless coming
down better than was expected early in the
seison. and as a consequence, prices have
declined from a quarter ta half a cent.
Ismail whites are now quoted by Jobbers at
6 cents, and large whlteo at cent.

TRADE IS GROWING
Commercial Operations in East
on Larger Scale.
TARIFF INFLUENCE SMALL
Expansion of Business Helped b)
Improved Monetary " Situation.
Iron and Steel Conditions
Better Than Expected. .
KEW YORK, Auc. 20. Dua'i Bavltv will
say tomorrow:
Evidences of reviving commercial and In
dustrial activity atMdily multiply and bust
ness optimism is becoming widespread.
The restrictive Influence ot tariff revision
Is somewhat less manifest, and the expan
sion in trade Is facilitated by the improved
monetary situation. Increasing preparations
for remote needa being stimulated by the
broader absorption of commercial paper at
lower rates.
Conditions In the Iron and steel trades
have been rather better than expected this
month. Reports from the dry goods mar
kets continued gratifying.
A generally improved comparison with the
two preceding years is shown In bank
clearings thla week, the total at all leading
cities amounting to fi.4uO.2Se.805. an In
crease of .4 per oent over last year.
Failures this week numbered against
trl last year, and 8 In Canada, compared
with 27 a year ago.
TEXTILE MARKETS ARE MORE ACTIVE
Mills, Instead of Malting- Ceaceeeiaau, Ask
Higher Price.
NEW YORK, Aug. 29. Bradst reefs to
morrow will say:
I n some respects trade reports suggest
somewhat more irregularity. Western ad
vices Indicate conservative buy ins, pre
sumably a reflex of repents of reduced crop
yields, but at the same time they proclaim
that the trade Is equal to or in excess of
that done at this time last year, when op
erations certainly were growing. Oa the
other hand, the more important Eastern
markets, particularly those having to do
with textiles, display more vim, house trade
has enlarged, and mills. Instead of making
concessions, are insisting upon higher
prices.
Failures for the week were 2U9. which
compares with 28 In liU2.
Wheat, Including flour, exports from the
United States and Canada, for the week
eggregate 7.042.1b4 bushels, against 3,45,
134 last year.

Sentiment In Wall Street Remains
Hopeful, Altliong-h Advance in
Prices Is Checked,
NEW YORK, Aug. S9. Speculation failed
to maintain today the brisk nu. .i vMt.r.
day. althoush the recent gatna were well
ueia. in tne aDsence or definite news from
Mexico, and with ae striking developments
In any other quarter. Incentive (or active
trading was lacking.
Beara attempted to depreea the list at the
opening, but the market was too strong tor
them, with Smelting, Steel and the coalera
in the lead, highest prices of the present
movement were reached. Later In the day,
owing to realizing and the weakness of a
few storks, the list moved slowly downward
with Increased heaviness toward the cloat
which, in many cases, eliminated the earlier
gaine.
Sentiment remained hopeful, despite the
failure of the market to continue on Its
upward course and bulllshly Inclined trad
ers maintained them. The market was In
a better position than It had been for some
lime. Improvement of the Investment
market la Indicated not only by the broader
demand for standard dividend-paying shares,
but In the ready absorption of recent bond
and note offerings. Although no figures re
garding subscriptions to Union Pacific's
holdings of Southern Pacific will be avail
able until next week, the auccesa of the
offering was said .to ba assured.
The bond market was Irregular. Toledo

lice captains and other city employes

SURVEY MOTES ARE GONE
Extensive Engineering Work Mai
Have to Be Done Again.
Because some petty thief needed a
coat, engineering; work costing hun
dreds of dollars may have to be done
all over by the Oregon Electric Com
pany. Three men searched the grass
along ths river front all yesterday in
an effort to avoid this necessity, but
to no avail. Police detectives have
been appealed to but have not made
any progress as yet.
While working on the new right
of way south of Jefferson street,
George E. Thompson, an engineer, re
moved his coat and laid it by the way
side. In the pockets were all the field
notes of an extensive piece of sur
veying just ' completed. When Jdr.
Thompson returned the coat and the
notes were gone. Unless the notebook
Is found the entire survey must 'be re
peated. .

c to e He up and provisiosn 2Htf5c to
2a. higher.
Lower cables started com on tha dawn
grade. September being particularly weak
at a decline of St to Sc. Shorts, how
ever, began to cover early and tha whole
list rallied after a little further dip In
8eptembr. Estimates from Kansas brought
an upward trend that lasted through the
sessien with only minor setbacks. Bullish
sentiment waa aided by an expert estimate
that the lowest forecasts ot tha crop In the
entire inited Estates nitnert. made were
substantially correct. It waa aleo pointed
out that no Improvement' In weather could
now hel matters any.
September wheat lad the other months,
suffering only 1-lttc net less on tha daVe
operations, against a loss of SBlio for
December and We (or May, Strength waa
given ins near month by purchases of 1.
ooa.000 bushels by a smail group of pit lead
era snd commission-houses. Tha lowest
prices for wheat reaehed thla year were re
corded today, easy cables being the chief
bear factor and this made buying attractive.
Elevator buying of oats lifted prlceaa after
an irregular opening.
Buying of lard, attributed to leading
pacaers, nsipea tne tana or provisions. Sep.
