Th warm weatbtr of th past few day haa practically assured a fin bop crop, which will In Ian measure run to choice. Th cold rain bava jeopardised th whoie crop, bo that al ons tlm competent au- tborttle declared that SO per cent of th crop would be spoiled. That t haaa statemer-ts war prematura 1 shown by conditions today, wbea aphis and lie are practically eliminated. Crop esti mate run from 10.000. whlcb Is conserva tive, to lao.ooo bales, whlcb is a (eneral belief on the part of dealers. At th earn time, thcr Is a lift In th lut of th arowsr. Vale there te a msrksd chant of con ditions. It scams certain, that tb price will not be abov and may b below that' current last year. Th fact at th matter la tha dealers bav received few Inquiries from brewers, or from brewers brokers. This Is due In lera measur. to heavy purchase mad last year when hope were unusually cheap. Hornier, th bucbear of ths wheat mar ket has entered lb bop field, too, the queetloa of sterling xchBnge. Hop pries her, aa compared Tilth an llah prices, ar based on an exrhaniie of M HO to th pound sterling. With ex ehanre for 60-day blila down lo 4.S. it can easily be aea there I an sppreclabls dlffercnc due la prices on Ihst standpoint alone. For Instanc. with eslisn at ft "0. hops at PS ahl'llnrs sr equivalent to IL'O S per hundredweight c.Lf. lovndoa. Hlmllsrly at 115 shillings the equivalent Is 124 4. But with exchang down lo Its present fl-rur th erjnlvalent of j shillings Is but flpt.3 an1 of 115 shillings 123.77. While I ull Ceo! a re that th carry-over In lh United Kingdom Is not over hundredweights, benrs assert It Is around r' OOO htindredwslgbta. The 1V14 Kngllah crop by Board of Trade figure was oOT.Ooo hundredweights: bs deslers figures, whlrh are generally ac cepted In this country, W0.000 hundred weight. There was a probable carry-over, based on lbs chesp prtc of hops, of possibly loo. oon nundredwelgthe. although thla Is prob lematical and Is bssed on the feci that the conservative English brewer usually stocks up. Oa Board of Trad figures, tne net. im ports, thst Is. deducting the total exports from total Imports, were i:s.0oo hundred weights. This give a total of 7T9.0OO hundred- wcighta, from which th consumption, shown by official figure aa &."0.0oo hundredweights, should b deduclsd. leaving, point out the bears, a surplus of I'-U.Cejo hundredweights. The Lng;ih crop Is estimated aa irora "ino.iMiO to USO.OOO hundredwelgths. Accept ing lh former figure, lo which should be sdaod en esttmsted Import from Belgium of .0.000 bundredwelgths, lll.lKHI less thsn Imported by crest Britsln from that country Isst veer, there will be available In th 1'nlted Kingdom a total of ita.oou tundrsd-. eights. While the figure ar presented by deal. era, they are, in large measir. raiaai up by official government statistics. Turning to wis country, coneervouvo an- matea ahow: n , riaiem. 1JO.OO0 loO.IMNJ ........ , .......... 40.000 ; i.UOO Csllfornla . Oregon .... t sshlngtoa New York . A total of 31.1.000 bales. It Is not lo be expected th consumption HI b abov 200.000 bsles for domestic use. which wss the quantity used by brew ers last year, since ehlch more stste have entered lh prohibition column, 'inereiore. there Is an available surplus for export of 113 ooo bales, which at on and alx-tenths hundredweight to th bale, amounts to lb4.. ooo hundndwalgbla to b added to the l.'nlted Kingdom total of 040.000 nundred weightswelghts. making a final total of OKI.- ou hundredweights avallabl ' for British use. As h consumption laat year waa b.0.000 hundredweights, a paper surplus of 14o.vtHi hundredweights Is shown, which dealers In Portland declare is very conservative On the stmpt basis of supply and de mand, on tho fact that It now costs five cents per pound to put hops Into London blghsr war freights, on the further mstter ot falling exchange and oa the assertion that the war Is reducing consumption, dealers de clare a lower price will tak effect. Growers, nsturally. assert higher prices win rule, but It Is ' unquestioned that but few contract are now being mad. bPOT WHEAT BTILIa SLNKJN0 Uavar Cwallnao I Hold Out For Iftghe-r Jrlre: Market at lradlock With lh Portland market at 'a deadlock, with spot wheat at Portland under $1, and with a drop In prices bid of about 1 cent all around, th Portland wheat marks!

Reporta of Bumper Cereal Crop Aid in Lowering Market; Oats Also Are on Decline. CHICAGO. Aug. 20. Shrinkage of export demand, a circumslanue laid principally to the sinking of the Arabic and the Bovie, did a good deal today to lower the price of wheat. The market, although steady at the close, waa 1 to lo net lower, with September at 1.04 and December at $1.02. Corn showed, a setback of to o and oats of m shade to c In provisions, tho outcome received a 7c de cline to a rise of be. Aside from the results of German sub marine activity, the chief Influence on the wheat market was the bearish crop outlook in th Northwest. Rains in tho Winter crop states seemed to have had only a temporary effect in favor of the bulls. Assertions by a leading authority that the crop of corn this season would amount to 3,000.000,000 bushels tended to weaken the cereal. At first, however, the market wa. on the advance, owing to cool temperature, which were thought likely to hinder growth. Oats fell back with wheat and corn. Unsettling aspects of tho foreign trade counterbalanced in the provision market a lively attempt to lift price, on the ground of tho backwardness of the orn crop.
