THE HOP YIELD. Wsatfclataw, M,M Balee; Celltorala, N,M IUIm, eaS Orrjo, TS.OSv Kale. Speaking of ths bop situation. Cap tain Georjre Pops, of Portland, says: "The situation of Oregon ' hop crop this year is a peculiar one. Four weeks ago the most conservative growvr or dealer bad made op his mind that nearly 100,000 bale would be pro duced in thit state. The hops were ob the vines, and no doubt the quality would have been excellent but for the heavy rains in August, which imparted new life to vinea, and fresh strobiles bean to set on literals that could not have come to maturity at so late a date. In addition to this, the core of the burr grew continuously under con' ditions produced by the August rains and the warm weather of this month, so that growers were confronted bv a problem that puzzled them. Kilns which in former years could be dried in 18 hours could not this year bt taken off in less than 4 to So hours, and in some cases even SO hours were required to take off a flooring of moder ate sUe. This threw the drying ma chinery out of shape. The hops, owing to the cool weather of August were backward. Picking of them did not bscome general until about September 10, so that all Urge yards have suf fend considerably. Entire yards have been abandoned on account of the rapid spread of mold, with the result that the crop has been cut down to about 70,000 bales. The quality of these J0 000 bales will range about 10,000 bales choice, 80,000 to 40,000 medium, and the remainder indifferent. "From what is known of other states, California has the best quality, nd 60,000 bales is said to be the yield in . that state. Washington's quality is said to be the same as ours, but as that state is seven or eight days later in maturing the crop west of the Cas cades, it is doubtful if it will harvest the quota accredited to her 50,000 bales. Kew York has one-third less this year than last, and the crop is said to have come down in very poor shape. English advices are conflicting. The yield in England is said to be the heaviest in many years. One writer who is an authority, while very con servative, gives the yield as 1,100 pounds per acre. England this year has 60,000 acres of hops. Such a yield, therefore, if it is all gathered, will be nearly equal to British con sumption. Germany's crop is also above the average, but it is doubtful if she has many hope to throw on the ex port market. The market value of English hops today ranges from 3 15s to 4 10s per 113 pounds, but it is said that even these prices will sot be maintained after the surplus of the United States seeks an outlet. As to this, however, there is no assurance. "The points in favor of the grower are these: First, the old stocks have 11 been worked off, and the crop of the world goes to a practically bare market; second, times all the world over are better, confidence has been restored, labor is everywhere fully employed, and hence the consumption of beer is on the increase." ImUU Starch Faetory. At the meeting of the Seattle cham ber of commerce at Seattle last week that committee reported in favor of aid ing in raising $25,000 for the establish ment of a starch factory there. The proposed factory is to be built under the supervision of Mr. Hnndhausen, of Westfalen, Germany whose family owns a secret process ot making starch that has been in use for SO years. The process saves all the gluten from the floor, while the process now in use on the coast, saves little or none of the gluten. The estimated cost of build ing and running the factory is 27,924. It is estimated that a factory at that point could sell in round numbers one eighth of all the starch used on the coast, or per annum 600,000 pounds. This is an average of one ton per day and would require 1.83 tons of flour per day. To Have Befnlar Steamship Line. The Alaska Packers Association is making preparations to establish a regu lar steamship line running betweeL San Francisco and Bristol bay next summer. The company has several canneries located on Bristol bay which are operated during the summer, but there has been no mail or passenger servioe from that place. The men en gaged in fishing there are shutout from the world while the season lasts. The association has recently let a contract with a Portland firm for the building of a steamer wheh will cost $200,000. Atlla Need. More Courts. -A petition is being circulated in At lln asking for the appointment of a county court judge for that district. The need of such a court is imperative. Already there are 28 cases on the cal endar. This, in most instances, will work great hardship. In one case an old gentleman sued for 60 days' wages at $4 per day, in all $240. The amount being over $100 the matter could not be settled in the small debts courts, and so the case pends. Six carloads of fancy liquors, weigh ing 60 tons, going to Dawson under special permits issued by Canadian government officials, went through Bkagway recently in care of a convoy sf the United Btates customs inspector. Dryers 1b Operation. A few days of warm weather have ripened the prunes at Eoseburg so rap Idly that the packers were forced to quit packing. L. Chapman sent one car to Montana and T. N. Segar, of Eugene, three cars to the Eastern States. Mr. Riddle and Mr. Wonaoott have started their dryers and all the other dryers of the valley will start up within few days. Good psper is made in Holland of the stalks of potato plants. Oregon's Medicine Industry, Dr. J. A.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review says: September is the 12th cousecu tive month in which the volume ot business, both at New York and out side of New York, has been greater than the same month of any previous year. In the IS months, payments through clearing houses have been $$9,800,000,000, against $61,300,000, 000, in IS months, ending with Sep tember, 1893, an increase of $28,400,- 000,000, over 46 per cent. When the tremendous expansion be gan, men called it replenishment of long-depleted stocks, then for a time it was called a era it outburst of specula Hon, and when demands still expand ed, some permanent increase of busi ness was recognised as a result of in creased population, earning better wages. But the demand still grows, now ranging about 60 per cent greater than in 1899, while population, ac cording to treasury estimates, is 16 per cent greater, and wages equal, it not over 10 per cent greater. A recon struction of business and industries, of producing and transporting forces, is in progress throughout the land, with results which none can now measure. Ths wool market ia active, with a general advance, aggregating about H cent on washed fleece combing, the en tire list quoted by Coates Bros, proba bly averages about hi cent higher. Cotton opened the crop year at 6. 95 cents and has risen to 6.87, although about a quarter more has come into sight than last year from the greatest crop on record, and stocks here and abroad commercial and bill, are 658, 000 bales greater than a year ago. Corn is unchanged in price, and still m large foreign demand, exports hav ing been in four weeks 12,155, 90-1 bushels, against 8,133,641 last year. PACIFIC COAST TRADE. r.rtlaaS Market.

It la also recommended for dress shirts, ss it not only allows one to sit upright at table, but always keeps the front of the shirt In position. and prevents it from bulging out of the waistcoat Two figures of the new design are shown, back and front By these It Is saM that while the new shirt hss an equal pressure all around, the ordinary braces pull heavily on the neck portion of the shoulders. Wives ot the Walts &lnc- Johann Strauss, the waits king, was scarcely laid away to rest In the Fried hot whSn a series of disputes arose over his possessions. Strauss secured to his wife and stepdaughter, ss well as his sisters, moderate incomes for life, snd then made the ' Society of Friends ot Music his heir-at-law. He disinherited bis brother, the well known Eduard Strauss, and made no provision for the destitute widow of bis brother Joseph. The chief effort to d.s pate the legality of Strauss' will Is to bt made by his second wife, from whom bs claimed that be was divorced. When Strauss contracted his second marriage both be and bis wife were Roman Catholics, snd were united In s Catholic church and with the rites of that religion. . The Austrian marriage laws are exceptionally severe, sud mar ried Catholics can In this country se cure a legal separation from one anoth er, but never an absolute divorce which enables them to marry again. The re sult Is that Roman Catholics who have secured a separation resort to all sorts of evasions of the taw In order to mar ry again. Johann Strauss receded from Roman Catholicism and became a Prot estant then emigrated to the Ducby of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, resided there for a period, obtained an absolute divorce from his wife snd married a third time. This evasion of the Austrian mar riage Uwsdeprlved Strauw of the court favor which he bsd enjoyed, snd It seems certain that In the strict legal sense his second wife Is his rightful widow, whereas his third wife, for whom he has provided, bad no autben tic claim on him. The Austrian laws ol succession provide that a wife can nev er be disinherited, but has always s claim on at least one-third of the prop erty left by her husband, so that the second wife of the great musician has every prospect of obtaining this share of his wealth. At present she is In poor circumstances, and earns her liv ing In a photographic studio In Berlin. Walls Plastered with Colas. Miss Daisy Dents, of Dentzvllle, N. J., a suburb of Trenton, has prob ably the largest collection of coins in New Jersey. Some of them are many hundred years old, snd they represent the currencies of nearly every country hi the world. Some Idea of the size of the collection may be gathered from the fact that the celling of Mist Dentz's boudoir is completely covered with United States money, while the four walls are hidden behind the coins of Asiatic, European, African and South American countries. There li considerable history attached to this collection, especially to the English coins, which were found near Prince ton In a queer shaped bst by one of Miss Dentz's relatives while In search of minerals. The hat Is similar In shape to those worn by the Hessian soldiers during the revolution and Is still m Miss Detnz's possession. There are many valuable coins In her collection, and were she to convert them all Into present American currency tbey would yield quite a snug sum. Philadelphia Record. The Wind Made Snowballs. Last March there was s remarkable exhibition at Grafton, N. H., of the comparatively rare phenomenon of "snow rollers." Freshly fallen snow wss rolled by the wind Into Innumer able cylinders, some of them ss large as a barrel, which dotted the bills and fields. Similar rollers have been seen in recent years In Connecticut, In Kan sas and In the State of Washington. The size varies with the strength of the wind. Glass Railways.
