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

mand Is Lacking;.
The wheat markets In the Northwest
were quiet yesterday. At all centers t!ie

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

cent higher than Saturday, but th;ra was

Exports from North America last week
Included 36.000 bushels of corn and l,82i,O0O
bushels of oats.
CORN AND TOMATO PACKS ARE SHORT
Opening; Prices Named on Almonds. With
Larger Crop.
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.

Reports of Alliance Between Bulgaria.

CHICAGO. Sept. 20. Rumors that the
success of the Anglo-French loan had been
assured helped give a lift today to the
wheat market here, and so, too, did reports
of an alliance between Bulgaria and Tur
key. Prices closed unsettled at the same
as Saturday nlgnt to Hlfc'sc higher, with
December I)3Vi03c and May U7c. Corn
finished unchanged to i c up. oats varying
from He decline to- down 2l4o to Be.
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. Seaboard inquiry was good
Speculative trade Ha provisions shrank to
a noticeable extent. The market gradually
worked lower under sales from scattered
holders and by packers.

New Hlgli Records Domes

NEW YORK, Sept. 20. 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.
New high records, some of which were
partly lost at the close. Included Stucfe
baker, with an extreme gain of lli nt 141;
Ooneral Motors. to 200; Willys Overland.
17 to 210; United States Industrial Alcohol.
6 to loii, and American Woolen. 2 to
40';, and such recent favorites as New York
Air Brake. 1214 to 13714; Bethlehem Steel,
u to o.jO, and Crucible Steel, 2, to P6Vk.
United States Steel led the movement
throughout, fluctuating within a range of
1. and closing at 7UV. a net gain of H.
The only heavy features were Colorado
Fuel and Great Northern ore. which re
linquished a considerable part of last week's
gains on denial of "combination" rumors.
Total sales amounted to P20.OO0.
Domestic news included Western advices
Indicating better and easier business con
ditions and improvement In the traffic sit
uation, due mainly tu heavier recclpta from
groin centers.
The bond market was firm, without spe
cial feature. Total sales, par value, agfjre
rfated $3,125,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.
