Similar Conditions Prevail In Wash
ington Only 4 000 Bales of 1913
Hops Now Kemain Unsold.
Conditions In England.
The lone spell of dry weather It cutting
down tha Oregon hop crop. First estimates
were of a yield of about 130.000 bales, but
well-posted hop men now declare that If
rain does not come soon, the crop may be
reduced 20,000 or 30.000 baleF. The yards In
nearly all sections are showing the effect of
drouth.
Similar reports come from Washington,
particularly in the western part of the
state, where the plant Is showing the effect
of blight. Warm dry weather is also re
ported In California.
The stock of 1013 hops In Oregon has been
reduced to 4000 bales. The C. A. McLaugh
lin crop of 1400 bales at Independence Is
being shipped to London and deals were on
yesterday for the transfer of a number of
other largo lots In that section. It Is not
known whether or not these hops ave been
-sold outright or are Lelng shipped on con
signment, but the belief prevails that they
were sold.
A few orders for the new crop at 14 to
14 cents are on the market, but no busi
ness Is passing In futures.
The following cable was received by Mc
Neff Bros, from London: "English crop pros
pects very favorable."

l imit-, of Mn.t Dealers are 81 for Club and
VHi for Forty Fold.
The limits of most of the wheat buyers
vescerduy were si cents for club, fcl' cents
for forty fold and 64 cents for bluestem, but
these prices were exceeded in some Instances
by at least half a cent. Puget Sound mills
were reported to have paid still more lor
wheat. Trading was heavy and would have
been larger but for the bullishness of farm
ers. Local receipts. In cais, were reported by

FrospeclUe Indian Jute Crop.
The near approuch.jf the India lute
forecast, conduces to lower prices and at the
moment sellets are again Inclined to meet

not assist selling, says the Glasgow Herald.
The following estimate of the probable

yielded S.500.U00 bales; lust Dulses crop
was sown and washed out to the extent of
l.OuO.000 bales; sowings this year are In
excess of last year, say 1.500,000 bales; crop
expected. 12.000.000 bales. There has
been Ideal weather for the crop all along
uuad any Utile demage done has been re
paired. Onion Orosrm I're-Klien Crops.
In an attempt to take advantage of the
market before competition arises, local
onion growers are endeavoring to pre-rlpen
their crops, say the Lodi Sentinel. The
tops are smashed in an effort to check
growth and then the onions are dug and
allowed to dry for a day or two, the tops
being used to prevent burning. Onions in
this way have been made firm and ripe
enough to stand shipment. Onions are going
rotward at from 12 to 20 cars a day In
spile of the warm weather.
Countiy Produce Markets Steady.
Receipts of country produce were not
heavy and the market was steady through

THE MORNING
STOCKS GIVE WAY
Crisis in Europe Causes Prices
to Crumble Fast.
SELLING ON LARGE SCALE
Foreigners Dispose of Over Million
Shares During Day Steel Re
port Not Issued Until
Session Is Over.
NEW YORK, July 28. To find a par
allel for the panicky conditions which swept
over today's stock market, it is necessary to
go back to the Autumn of 10", when se
curity values crumbled away because of
disastrous domestic conditions. The Im
pelling factor today was the war crisis In
Europe.
The day opened with another low range
of prices for our stocks in the London mar
ket Initial prices here were In no Instance
as iow as those recorded abroad, although
declines of 2 to 3 points were general.
It was not until midday, when Austria's
attitude became known, that the market
here was seriously affected. Although all
foreign markets were closed, outpouring of
stocks for London, Paris and Berlin became
more urgent, until they reached the max
imum proportion of 300,000 shares in the
final hour and over 1, 000,000 for the day.
The shrinkage of values was materially
assisted by short selling and impaired mar
gins. Canadian Pacific fell until It yielded
a total of lt points, with 4 to 6-polnt
losses In all parts of the Internationa! list.
Apprehension was Increased by future heavy
gold exports to Paris and London. Foreign
exchange rates were utterly demoralized.
Many brokers declined to make quotations
at all
The selling gathered greater Impetus In
the final dealings, being coincident with
rumors that Russia had agreed to support
Scrvla. At this same time word came from
Montreal and Toronto of the premature clos
ing of the exchanges in those cities. There
were fitful rallies of a point or two from
the low, but these were offset by continued
offerings with an exceedingly weak close.
United States Steel's quarterly statement
was not Issued until after the session here
had terminated.
The bond market followed the course of
stocks with some sharp recesslona Total
sales, par value, S3, 300, 000. United States
Government coupon 4s declined 14 per cent
on call.

OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, JULY 29, 1914.
Oregon without any of the aids of
civilization, has nothing on the small
boys of Seaside, as they are maKing
daily records catching smelt with their
bare hands from the briny deep.
Larger fish and ealions chase the
smelt in shore and they become
stranded in the shallow water or
snared among the boulders and are
then an easy prey to the active
youngsters.
