TIIE MORNING OliEGONIAN. TUESDAY. BEPTE3ir,EB 31, 1915. PRUNE CROP LIGHT Estimates of Northwestern Yield Are Deduced. DRYING NEARLY COMPLETED Output Js Now Figured at Twenty to Twenty-Two Million Pounds. Market Is Firmer Old Crop Surplus Gone. The Northwestern prune crop 1. not turn Ins out as well as It was thought It would, and mm a consequence estimates are being reduced. Well-posted prune men how place the crop figure at 20,000.000 to 22.000,000 pounds, whereas a month ago they looked forward to a crop of about 25,000.000 pounds dried. The reason (or the crop coming down lighter la not yet clearly understood, but the unusual weather conditions are held responsible. Many of the growers are now through with their drying operations. There is a lit tle activity on the part of buyers, as aresult of the reduced crop estimate., and the mar feet is firmer, prices to growers ranging from c to ',ic higher thon a month ago. The surplus of old-crop prunes on this Coast has been worked off, and according to advices from Ne York, spot stocks there have also been cleaned up. The New York Journal of Commerce says: "Kl.tty-flve hundred boxes of J 014 crop California prunes were sold in the New Tork spot market for export to Europe. 'The sale was said to have been made at the full mar ket iiuotatlons and practically effects a cleanup of all available supplies of the 1014 stock in this market The sale announced last week of 8000 boxes of 3014 crop Cali fornia prunes, added to the latest order, makes more than 14.000 boxes of prunes which have been disposed of to European sources within a week. "The heavy sales which have been mads to Ktirope within the past week are greater than for any corresponding time this Summer, nccordlng to the reports which have been issued. The largest total sales of one week previous to this, as announced by operators, was approximately 11.000 boxes. "There may be a slight purchasing in the New York market of very restricted stocks, but Interest from now on will probably be focused on the 1015 crop for early Fall shipments." WHEAT MARKET IS 'WAITING ONE Local Price Changes Are Irrrgulur ant! De mand Is Lacking;. The wheat markets In the Northwest were quiet yesterday. At all centers t!ie trade is In a waiting Attitude, pending the settlement of the Anglo-French credit ne gotiations. While it is not believed here that the loan will have any decided effect on grain values, yet traders are d'sposed to wait and see how the other markets net. At the Merchants" Exchange prices were Irregular, ranging from 2 cents lower to 1 cent higher than Saturday, but th;ra was n evident desire to transact business.

Estimates covering the 1915 corn' pack havo been reduced by conservative factor to 6,200,000 cases. Early estimates were for a pack of 8,000.000 cases. The 1914 pack was 9.7S9.O0O cases, and the average for the three years 1912, 1913 and 1914 was 10,060. 000 cases. Cold and unseasonable wot weather during the critical growing period for making sweet corn played ha-oo with the prospects In all sections of tho country. The tomato pack for 1915 gives every promlsvs now of not exceeding 7,.100.00O cases. Last year the total was 111. 222. Otto cases, and lua 1914 the total was 14.190,000 cases. Opening prices on 1915 walnuts have been named by the California Almond Growers Exchange. The new quotations announced were 15 cents for Nonpareil, 13 cent for T. X. L.. 13 cents for No Plus Ultra, 11 cents for Drakes, 11 cents for Lanquedocs and 8Vi cents for Hardshells. AH prices were made f. o. b. Coast, and a rebate of cent a pound will be allowed on all orders booked subject to approval of price If confirmation is made at once.. The prices are guaranteed against decline until January 1. 1916. Esti mates on this year's almond crop say that the coming yield will be one of the largest on record, though some sections within the past few weeks have reported a slight falling oft In the crop from the figures first g-lven out. The crop last year was very short, and the carryover In consequence amounts to practically nothing. HOP TRACING BETWEEN DEALERS Further Business in Sonoma Market at 12 Cents English Buyers Wait. The only business In the hop market yes terday was a transaction between dealers Involving 250 bales at .11 ',4 cents to the seller. Bids of 13 cents were made for tus sles. A California wire reported the sale of 120 bales of Sonomas at 12 cents. For Sacra nientoa Ilia cents was offered. According to a London cable English deal ers are. deferring purchases of American hops pending the settlement of loan nego tiations at New York and the restriction of the foreign exchange market to a more stable basis. A letter from a New Y'ork dealer esti mated the New York state crop at 10,000 bales with a poeelbillty that It will come down less. The Watervlllo Hop Reporter says of conditions in New York State: "There seems to be very little business transplrlns in the local market. A few sales of small lots, some of them "Early Clusters, are reported at from 22Vi to 25 cents. Dealers are apparently waiting for pressed samples before soliciting orders or making offers to tho growers. "Picking will be finished In practically all yards this week. The hops have come down considerably lighter than many expected, although the quality is in most cases fairly good." Beer sales In August, 1915, were 498.343 barrels less than in tne same month last year, according to an unofficial estimate. The showing was rather more favorable from a brewers' standpoint than in the two pre ceding months, as the July decrease was 850,532 " barrels and the June figures re vealed a loss of 131,381 barrels.

Strength in wheat did not develop much until near the end of the session. Not withstanding a show of strength at the outset, the market soon underwent a de cided setback. Influenced by the relative cheapness of Canadian prices and by the unpromising outlook for any Immediate en largement of export business from the United States. Corn swayed with wheat. Frost predic tions tendeii also at times to put the bears at a disad vantage especially at the start and the wind up. Oats held comparatively steady through out the day.

Dealings in stocks today were on a larger and more comprehensive basis than at any recent time, to the general accompaniment of higher quotations. To be sure, war spe cialties yielded none of their recent promi nence, but the undertone of the market waa strengthened by what seemed to be an in quiry from investment sources for the bel ter known railways and other Issues of rec ognised merit. Sentiment was encouraged by the course of foreign exchange, which again roso ap preciably on tho growing belief of a satis factory consummation of the Anglo-French credit negotiations. It is understood, how ever, that some of the more important de tails connected with that important under taking remain to be settled, such as the sum total and the exact purpose to which tjte proceeds are to be applied. External conditions, so far as they bore upon affairs across the water, exerted little Influence In either section, although Lon don once mora reported heavy tone for the International list. v Stocks, notably Smelting, which rose 3U to fc44, and the shares of other companies having Mexican interests, improved for the moat part, apparently, in recognition' of latest diplomatic developments affecting Mexico.
