FICK1NG WILL OPEN SOON Oregon's Yield Expected to Excel That of Last Year and Pacific Coast Crop AVill Be Normal. Price Uncertain. Oregon cop crop should be worth $2, B00.000 to the state thls year. This Is an estimate made by reliable Portland dealera and based on an anticipated yield of 113,000 bales and a price of 10 cents a pound. As a matter of fact, the yield, from present Indications, will prob atlT be In excess of 115,000 bsles. and, while Quotations are still a matter of doubt, there s a possibility of prices equaling those of last I ear. which ranged around 12 cents, with top uotatlons here at 14 cents. The Paclflo Coast crop this year, it Is estimated, will practically equal that of last rear. In California a alight falling off In the wield as compared to last year is antici pated, the crop estimates at present being J10.0OO bales. In Oregon, however, present indications are that the crop will be better and in Washington the crop will be about the same as last year's, approximately 8S.000 bales. Report coming- from various sections of Che United -States indicate that the yield will be about the same as last year with gv possibility, at least In some acctlons, of a higher grade of hops. Market conditions are still causing some Concern to hop men. At present there Is ery little movement of hops, practically no ales of the 1916 crop being reported. This is to a great extent owing to the near ap- f i roach of the harvesting season, the major, ty of dealers preferring to wait until they know what the market will develop. How ever, there Is also an admitted lack of Strong demand for hops at the present time. The majority of the brewers, it is declared, have purchased hops sufficient to last until after the harvesting season and as a conse quence they can afford to wait before mak ing any purcsasea, , The hop market Is, of course, handicapped toy the war conditions In Europe, but these same conditions prevailed last year and, in spiie of them, the hop market remained f :iirly good. Practically the only new con dition which faces the hop men this year la the restrictions placed by England upon the Importation of American hops. How ever, the English crop this year is reported to be small and it is believed cannot supply the demand.. As a consequence It is felt that the arbitrary restrictions will be re moved later In the season, thereby opening up that market lor tne American proauct- The acreage of hops tn Austria has been , reduced this year to about one-third of the customary acreage, according to reports re liig of acreage, will mean that a normal ever, will not affect the hop situation here except in case of a speedy termination of the European war. However, this shorten ing of acreage will roea nthat a normal acreage cannot be regained again for possi bly two or more years, with the possibility that market conditions within the next few years for the Pacific Coast product may thereby be affected. McNeff Brothers, hop dealers, of Port land, have prepared a chart showing the prices prevailing on hops for the past 25 years that they have been in business in Oregon. It shows that the average price on hops during that period was 144 cents. The highest price was during the months f November. December, January and Feb ruary, 1911. when the 45-cent figure was reached. he lowest price was In March, 13U5, when hop quotations dropped to 1 cent a pound. It Is said that If a period of S3 years had been taken instead of 25, the average price would have been still better, as In 1&S2 hops Vers quoted at $1.05. An average of 14 cents, however, is considered good, taking Into consideration that It costs the grower approximately 8 cents a pound to produce the dried product. Of this figure, 4 cents a pound goes for the Clicking and 1 cent for the handling of the product after being picked, the remaining 8 cents being for cultivating and training and spraying of the vines. The latest reports from Oregon yards are that the hops . are going into the burr In sjood shape. Lice are bothering in some of the yards, but as yet practically no mould haa developed. Picking is expected to be gin early In September. Picking will become general in California about August 15. With the beginning of the harvesting of the crop there it la anticipated that something like a fixed quotation for the 191ft crop will be obtained, thereby giving hop men an idea ct what the market will develop. WHEAT MARES FURTHER ADVANCES 15 luce tern Only Variety Which noes Not Go lp in Local Market. Advances on all grades of wheat, with the exception "of bluestem, developed at the noon session of the Portland Merchants Exchange yesterday. Bid prices on the low er grades of that cereal Jumped from 1, to 2 cents over the quotations prevailing on the preceding day. The advances made were: Portyfold and club, lh-a cents, and red fife and red Rus sian 2 cents. Yesterday's wheat quotations are: Bluestem, $1-17; fortyfold, $1.14H. club, S1.12H: red fife, $1.13. and red Rus sian, $1.1.'. Excitement In wheat circles was not so intense yesterday as on preceding days, vhen heavy advances were scored on alt prades. Sales, too, were reported to have been cut down a little and dealers were rot purchasing so readily. Sales were also curtailed by the difficulty of coming to an tinderstand;ng on quotations with the pro ducers, owing the unsettled state of the tnarket. Some dealers reported that a prevalent opinion among many of tne farm ers that prices would go still higher was making It difficult to secure grain at the going quotations. However, ia spite of this, tome substantial movements of the cereal were made In some of the grain centers of the Interior. Report coming from Chicago served in ft measure also yesterday to dampen the ardor of some grain purchasers, and soms uncertainty was felt as to the future move ment of quotations. In spite of the many factors entering Into situation the mar ket continued fairly strong. The market for oats continued fairly strong yesterday at previous quotations, $2S being the bid price for mat cereal at the Merchants' Exchange. Considerable move ment of oats was reported, with a healthy market condition. Barley also remained steady at Terminal receipts In cars were reported by the Merchants" Exchange as follows: fortland Friday. 14 1 8 7 ear ago 24 2 2 1 3 Season to date.. .409 20 248 238 21'2 Tear ago 7S 74 113 84 251 Tacoma Thure... 13 1 s &r ago 10 1 8 Reason to date. ..481 8 .... 24 144 Sear ago 654 23 .... 24 192 peattle Thurs... 12 2 4 43 ear syo 11 2 9 8 17 fcason to data. .493 19 234 143 804 Vsar ago SSd 44 800 116 S43 CROP CONDITIONS ARJD BEPOBTED T ark of Rain and High Temperatures Af fect Some Districts. A report of crop conditions in the United IStstes tor the week ending August 0. is sued by the American Steel & Wire Com pany, of Chicago, says: "The West. Central and Southwestern States are suffering for want of rain and ex tremely high temperature at present, while a portion of the New Eng'.and states, to- (-ether with the Southeastern and Gulf states, are suffering from a severe flood damage. Grain crops, with the exception of corn, are being harvested under the most favorable conditions, while such crops a, cotton, tobaoco and truck produced In the South and East show larff percentage of damage. Hay croo U unusually heavy Spring wheat rust condition are noted, only in the Dakota." FIRST CAR OF YAKTM A. FEARS COMES Shortage of Cars Continue to Hamper Movement of Fruit. The first carload of Takima pear of the season has been received in Portland and resulted to a certain extent in relieving- the pear situation here. Previous small ship ments had been received from the same district during- the past few days. Fear quotations remain at $1 to $2. Fruit men report being hampered to a great extent by the shortage of cars, and this, to a great extent. Is preventing the customary movement of shipments. Grain men are also interested in this situ ation, owing to the fact that the majority of the grain movement will be by rail this year, necessitated by the inability to se cure bottoms. As yet. however, shipments of grain have been small. WATERMELON DE31AJO IS KOW GOOD Large Shipments of Tomatoes Result In . Lower Quotations. As a result of the warm weather condi tions now prevailing commission men along Front street report a good demand for watermelons and cantaloupes. Quotations remain firm at 14 to 1 cents for water melons and 90 cents to $2 a crate for canta loupes. Further shipments of tomatoes nave re sulted. In the lowering of quotations to from 40 to 90 cents a crate on that vegetable. Cucumbers are quoted now at 40 to 60 cents a box. J Bank Clearings.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11. The course of prices In today's trading indicated rather plainly the uncertainty and confusion preva lent in speculative circles. Opening prices were firm to strong, these giving way to general recessions and points of weakness before midday. Later the movement became more Irregular, rails as well as specialties often pursuing opposite dlrections.s Reading, again the market leader. Im parted strength to the entire list In the final hour, when it recovered from it early heaviness and advanced three point to 103. Other rails were held In partial check by conflicting rumors affecting the mediation conference, but hardened at ths close. Among the specialties General Motors was the outstanding feature. The preferred shares rose 4 points, with avsrag gains of two points for 6tudebaker. Maxwell and Chandler motor. Similar gains were made by kindred issue on the curb, 8 tuts scoring a new high record at 66. Equipment and munition issue ware visibly strengthened by the remarkable an nual ea miners of American Locomotive, which showed a five-fold Increase over the preceding year. New Yrk Air Brake, which Is in receipt of further foreign con tracts, gained six points, with one to three points for other shares of the same grop. United States Steel varied only fraction ally, and closed at a slight advance, but Bethlehem Steel gained 13 points, with a moderate advance Id Crucible SteeL Shipping shares repeated their eecent ac tivity, but proved more than ordinarily sus ceptible to realizing sales. Coppers were more firm, but made little headway, despite the enormous foreign de mand for the- refined metal. Sugars and petroleums fluctuated within narrow limits on light dealings. Total sales of stocks amounted to 345.000 shares. Bonds were irregular, with a slight eon cession to Anglo-French 5s. Total sales of bonds, par value, $2,720,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call, but ths coupon 4s advanced 1 per cent on an aotual sale. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Bales. High. Low.

In a few places In the West, it is true, there Is a disposition to await corn crop development. Incidentally, merchants ex cursions have brought numerous buyers to leading; market, with the result that house trade in dry goods, clothing and shoes has expanded In noteworthy degree, and the fact that road sales are growing satlsfao ftorlly suggest that interior distributors fear St goods famine in textiles later on.
