MARKET ON EXPORT BASIS
Bayers' Efforts to Tick Up Bargains

ticipated Flour Quotations
May Be Bowcrcd.
Testei-days local ncat market was an
unsatisfactory affair. Prices were handi
capped at the start by the break at Chl
eafo. due to the tishtenlne of export
llocksde. Buyers In this market evidently
thought they had sellers at their mercy, but
this did not prove to be entirely the case.
Jiids were sharply reouced. In some cases
brim 1 and 17 cents under the prices
offered Saturday, but sellers made no such
concessions. Where actual transactions were
closed, the declines were only 5 to 7 cents,
and asklnc prices, as a rule, averaged only
4 cents under those of last week.
There was a steady export demand on the
market and buying- was not done as easily,
perhaps, as the purchasers anticipated. The
uansactlons in detail were:

The blutstem sale noted above was 7
cents under Saturdays price. May forty-fold
sold cents lower, club 5 rents lower and
red Russian was down 0 cents.
There is no reason for wheat selling
cheaper than the present prices, as the
market la on to export basis and Europe
still wants grain. There is a scarcity of
tonnage just now, but stilus will be coming
along later, and but little wheat is finding
Its way out of the Interior.
Tbe oats market Is holding fairly steady,
but there is no demand for barley and it is
""he patent flour market Is also' weak
and local quotations are likely to decline
In the near future. The cut in prices may
be mO centB or even-40 cents a barrel.

Contracts Are A1m In Demand, but O.rotvers
Are Holding 1 inn.
There was a good Inquiry yesterday on
the market for spot hops and a big re
duction coulr be made In the small avail
able supply, but holders decline to eel! at
going prices. Contracts are also wanted.
kut few can be bad.
California reports told of the sale of 200
bales of the Okl crop of Sacramento to
Lhlmann at 10'i cent, and the purchase
by Marks of 575 bales of Tehama at OVi
rents. The Walervllle Hop Reporter says
ef the Jiew York market:
We can learn of but one sale since
ur last repoiV that of Patrick Ryder's
I'j of TO bales. The price Is not given, but
Is understood to be about In line with other
reoent sales.
The market As lifeless, no Interest ap
parently being taken on either aide and
tho little spurts of activity shown from
week to week are but of short duration.
"1H understood locally that several grow
ers are contemplating plowing up their
liops this Sprif. or at least, a considerable
part of their acreage. Opinion seems to
be divided as to tho wisdom of this action,
however, and It is possible when the time
comes that the total acreage will be re
duced but little.''
J-OREIGN CROP CONDITIONS NOT GOOD
Y rather Is Unfavorable In Most Parts of
Europe.
Foreign crop conditions are summarized
br Broomhall it follows:
United Klngiotn Rains hindering farm
Trora and preventing wheat sowing. This
Is causing apprehension as to acreage, and
many are estimating an acreage only equal
to that of last year. Conditions very un
favorable on bottom lends.
France The agricultural outlook Is only
fair. The government has released terri
torials to assist In sowing and threshing.
JSatlve supplies are more liberal. The acre
age planted will be short and the yield
light.
Germany Crop accounts are good and a
lull acreage Is expected. "
Austria The government is taking steps
to plant a large acreage to Spring grain.
Hungary Seeding is as yet on a very
small scale. Weather unfavorable.
Russia Snow cover holds except In the
extreme south. Prices of wheat and oats
advancing. All grain la stagnant, with very
little moving.
Australia. Weather unfavorable. Our agent
estimates the Imports at 1. 730.000 bushels.
Argentina Rains have checked the move
ment of wheat and oats. Prices are firm,
with shipping difficult. Estimates of til a
exportable surplus of wheat and oats are
being further reduced.
India Wheat offers are increasing and
cheaper.
Itsly Continuous rains In the center are
very damaging to wheat. Imports con
tinue unabated.'
Spaln The weather Is fairly seasonable,
out dryness Is reported over a wide area.
