HOP MEN EXCITED Farmers Now Looking for Further Advance. 40 CENTS IS PREDICTED Brwrr Already In field and Said to B Of fe ring 4 Cent- for Hop Id Btlrt German Crop 60 Per Cent Short. Almost tererish Interest continues to predominate In the hop market, and rowers as well as dealers ars active to a defre bordering upon excitement In their efforts to take advantage of poasrble st ances In price. Owing; to ttr feeling; of certain that the price will go above Si cents, yesterday a sales at that flerure wers fewer than on the two prevloua days, w hen dealers bought on that basts. The present situation has g-ven the farmers much cause for elation. They are collecting an advance, of from 10 per cent to 19 cents a pound on all sales made to many Portland buyers. It wss reported yesterday that spec ulators have entered the field and that they are seeking to buy hops at almost any reasonable figure, even hinting that they will bo above the market. However, growers who are short of ready money and the many conserva tive ones wlfh cash In their pockets prefer to trade with those who give them a cash payment to bind their bar gains. Continued drouth In Germany strengthens the bull movement locallv. The crop there will be. more than f0 per cent short, acoordlnr to latest esti mates. Hop statistics figure that the world's supply will be more than J00. 000 bales short. Brewers have entered the market ear lier than usual. Their agents are said to be figuring on rontracts of 44 cents for spot goods, which farmers declare la equivalent to V rents on their mar ket. The certain shortage has forced the brewers Into the field earlier than usual, aod If competition between them becomes keen the price will advance and the farmers will reap the benef;t- More than 100.000 pounds were pur chased by local dealers yesterday. Mo Neff Brothers, of Portland, who set the pace In paying J4 centa. yesterday bought the crops of John Farley, of Pallas; Hugh Fmlth. 8. IX Pteffey and Louis Larhmund. of Dallas. O. M. Beck er, of Mount Angel, and 'red Pchmldt of ilcKee. TVIIE4T N1UR LITTLE EASIER. Eacevraglng Tro Resort. Have Bearish .ffrrt Barter Kinase. Reports from Chicago and from the principal crop-producing districts of the Northwest had a bearish effect upon the local wheat market yesterdav and a a whole the situation was a little easier. rarmsra. however, are not concerned ahout prices and not until they start to offer their crops for sale will there be a chance for a break in the present deadlock. Ml.Iers are Inclined to dis credit tl:e adverse reports from for eign countries end In view of the de cidedly encouraging news from Can ada they predict a slight reduction as soon as the grain begins to move. It was reported yesterday that several of them had reduced the limit that they will pay. There has been little trading In either wheat or barley. However, the berlev market strengthened while wheat weakened. Reports of high prices thst sre being paid In California for all kinds of barley had a bullish effect here. With the difference In freight rates figured In. local barley men declare that II 40 la Sacramento la not in excess of what similar grades will bring here. This Is on a basis of tie a ton for Northwestern barley, they ssy. However, Portland dealers re fuse to pay 130 for feed barley. Farm era a ay they will get that price before much more of It moves. There Is virtually no business In eat.

Further ehlpments of Oregon peaches are expected here this week. The pre vailing attractive prices are expected to remain the market figure and consid erable business will be done. Loral dealers cleaned up their stocks In splendid ehspe yesterday, and now sre prepared to handle the coming week a bualne.e. All portions of the Faelflc Coast will contribute to the supply this week. California hae been making regular shipments for the past few weeks, and the Oregon peach has been In the market ever since the ses son ripened. 'With the advancement of the eeason the Oregon product will be more than ever In evidence. Peaches from Washington also are finding their war here now. A shipment of (00 cratea of pine apples was reoelred here yeaterday. Peara have been attracting consider able attention recent 1 v. Good Bartletts brought as much as J SO a box.

Fsrmers In the Willamette Valley now sre beginning to lay plane for the disposal cf their year s crop, and within the pext few weeks many of them are expected to make contracts with local huvers Several Urge consumers In Portland are getting ready to contract for their Wlnter'a supply.

There were iil head of fair to choice quality hogs and 111 sheep on the list of yesterday a loral arrivals. Previous contracte already have dla poeed of the pork stock, while the sheep went through to Idaho for feeding. Very few Northwestern hogs have been received at the local market thla week.

UNION PACIFIC SUFFERS rYlck'g RtMlremrnt Hg Vridegppe?ad Effect Parchaeee Ate Heavy, F?ven London Placing I jar (re Orders Ste-rl Improve. NEW TORK. Aug. 11. With practi cally no cessation the stock market continued Ite purging process today. Prices fell with greater precipitation than at any previous time In the pres ent movement and losses Increase! until they ran from 23 to. 10 points compared with a fortnight back. In shares which for years have ranked among; the certain dividend payers, lieilon Paclflo was again the weakest stock, opening with the greatest loss and yielding over four points In the first 1U minutes. The gelling of thla stock, which amounted to 102.000 shares In the first hour was the moat persis tent and gave rise to a variety of rumors which dealt In part with house of International fame as well as with concerns and Individuals of far less prominence. There wss no known developments over night to which the renewed sell ing might be attributed, but the retire ment of Mr. Prick from the Harrlmsn directorate waa again referred to as an indication of the attitude of the substantial Interests. London which seldom participates In this market on a Saturday, was again reported purchasing but the extent of Its operations was probably negligible. The market rallied very generally before the end of the first hour but thin waa followed by another move ment In Union Pacific which sent that stock lower. At that level buying odds again lifted the list until some Issues notably United Steel, were above the prevloua days close. Bonds declined with the stock market. Total sales par value 11.110.000. United States Government bonds were unchanged on call. Cl.081.Na STOCK QUOTATIONS.
