To care for purchases of equipment
more advantageously, the Supple-Ballin

SAX FRANCISCO. Aug. 1. (Special.)
mm uie gradual Increase in the vessels

within another month are certain to exceed
all past records for the number of ships
errlvlogand sailing, total tonnage of ships
and also for tbe amount of Incoming and
outgoing freight via water. The figures for
July are more satisfactory than for several
months, for they show that 563.568 tons of
steamers and 7.87 tons of sailing vessels
arrived during the 31 days.
According to the maritime department of
the Chamber of Commerce tbe business for
August win be increased to considerable
proportions on sreount of the restoration
of the vessels of the East Asiatic fleet.
wblcb may be utilised by the shippers. These
bave a capacity of something like 75,000
tons.
Large suras obtained from the Government
for carrying malls overseas is to be a thing
of the past, in the opinion of the operating
shipping men of tbe port, who today dis
cussed the recent ruling of Uncle Sam re
garding compensation that may be collected
for rendering mall service on ships. The
order coming from Washington states that
where competition Is lacking. or the rate
Is excessive, the Postmaster-General may
order a steamship concern to carry mall
and receive only such rate as Is paid for
carrying express or freight. The shipping
men say that there will be no evading the
order.
Owing to the organization of a . union.
the dock clerks of the port are now receiving
better compensation than ever before in
the history of sblpplnr. and tbe result is
that It j not as difficult as formerly to se
cure men when they are needed. The rate
for work varies, but nearly spproxlmates the
compensation accorded to the husky steve
dores, who about hold their own with the
men la tbe shipyards.

THE WEATHER.
There was never a time when the hop
market was in so unsettled and uncertain
condition as now. This, almost wholly, is
due to the general advance of prohibition
and prohibition sentiment throughout the
country and legislation, accomplished and
prospective, by Congress against the manu
facture and sale of liquors.
Commenting on the outlook for the hop
Industry in this state, a local dealer said
yesterday: . fc
"To tell tbe plain trtith. there is no hop
market. The prices that are being quoted
from time to time are purely nominal and
they mean but little. Business in our lice
is so completely upset that we hardly.know
where we are or how to proceed.
"As everybody knows, the states, one by
one, are lining up for prohibition, and there
is little room -for doubt that through their
action nation-wide prohibition, soon or
late, will come. On top of this, to make
matters still more difficult and uncertain
tor us. Congress Is taking a hand In the
matter and endeavoring to get a bill through
to halt the manufacture and sale of all
kinds of liquors immediately . as a w,ar
measure, Independently of the action of th
states.
"The chances are that a measure provld
Ing for National prohibition during the
period of the war will be put through both
houses before the end of the year. The
President, of course, may veto that measure,
If It is put up to him, for it is well known
that he is opposed to having any prohibl
tion provision attached to an agricultural
appropriation bill and believes that the regu
lation of the liquor traffic now may, with
safety, be left to the states. And, again,
he may not veto it; so there you are.
"Another difficulty that has developed,
and one that naturally hits the hop Indus
try, is the action taken by the Fuel Ad
ministration in cutting down the allowance
of coal to the brewers of the country 30
per cent. The brewer's problem, in a large
measure, also Is the hop-grower's problem,
and as matters now are going the outlook
is a far from favorable one for the men
who have millions Invested in the two In
dustries.
"Hop-picking In California ordinarily be
gins about August 10 and in this stats
around September 1. but this" year the grow
ers don't know whether to go ahead add
gather their crops or not. so dubious is the
market outlook. The question of financing
tbe gathering of the crop in itself Is a seri
ous one. for the banks now are far from
willing to advance money for the care of a
crop whose value is altogether conjectural.
Local dealers are quoting prices around
10 cents, but declare there is nothing doing,
and it seems that no effort is being made in
any quarter to put any business through.
It is reported that a few small lots of 1017s
were disposed of recently at prices around
10 cents for which a year ago as high as
40 cents was offered.

Port Officials Expect Shipments Totaling;
z,mw,vuo xtusneis xnis season.
In a statement issued yesterday. Chairman
Frank J. Miller, of the Oregon Publio Serv
ice Commission, announced that Astoria's
port officials this year expect shipments of
grain aggregating 2,500,000 bushels, and the
prediction la made that this will mark tbe
beginning of the diversion of grain ship
ments from Puget Sound to the Columbia
River. At the same time he announced
that a grln 'lnepection bureau la to be
established at Astoria.
In his statement Mr. Miller says:
"With a view of diverting grain ship
ments from Puget Sound ports to the Colum
bia River. Astoria haa lust completed an
elevator with a capacity of 1,000.000 bushels
and has wharflng facilities for 600,000 bush
els In sacka The port officials inform me
that they have received assurances from
grain dealers that 2.500.000 bushels of grain
will be received at the port from the grain
country adjacent to the Columbia River this
season, and in my opinion it marks the be
ginning of the shipment of grain down the
Columbia insteaa oz over tne mountains to
Puget Sound porta Heretofore the Port of
Astoria baa had practically no facllltlea for
handling grain shipments.
"The new elevator will be opened August
13, and by then the grain Inspection bureau,
which the commission will furnish the port.
will have been established and ready for
buslnesa The bureau will be put in charge
of an experienced grain man as chief deputy
and be will obtain the necessary expert
grain samplers and graders. The grain In
spection department of tbe commission Is
oDaratlng on a fee basis, and I am satis.
fled the fees of tbe Astoria bureau will be
sufficient to defray Its expenses. If there
la any deficit at the end of the season
Astoria will reimburse the commission, its
officials having offered to do that."
