During the first seven montba of the . year the consumption of beer, s Indi cated Dy tne tax paia Dy Drawers nuw 'an' enormous decrease of 8.110,000 bar rels, the largest falling off In beer drinking In the history of the Industry. " These figures are correct 'for they are Xursjished by the united ocaies govern ment. They are taken from the sale of i beer stamps during tne various penoua and are true reflections -of the amount of beer brewed during the given periods. While in some quarters there is talk of an Increase in beer oonaumptlon de- i spite the local option laws and the Sun- ' day closing; ins npuroa ma cuwpu u uj : the government show Just the opposite Has a Bearing- TTponHop Igarka. ' The heavy decrease in beer making i and consumption is naving s oneci ' upon the market for hops for without a demand for the manufactured product there is no call ror nops. ai uih unit it is doubtful if dealers can secure any new business, in the hop market-rthe transactions now passing being for old ' account. Brewers seem ' to have pur chased all their requirements for the Immediate future at least and are not at all interested in the hop market nor- its prices. -. ' Contracts May Be a Bait. Just whether the hop contracts now being made for the account of short sellers is in reality a bait having for jits purpose the inducing of growers to suraoMnt money to pay picaina; nanaea after Catherine, cannot be fore tolrt but soma Interests say that such is the case. In any event there are many growers quite anxious to contract at even these low prices providing con tractors will pay them their picking money1 in advance, Tnia in contractors Item unwilling to do so there Is little chance that the entire crop will be gath ered this season ume,ss something un forseen happens rfthln the nexr week or--10 days. "flame Old Bohtmej Sams Old Players. This Scheme of boosting the hop mar ket at the critical moment in order to induce picking is a scheme that is very old and Is, annually put Into effect by the samo old gang of players. They have sold hops short at low prices so in. order to make more money they most force the growers to pick their crop. Unless the picking money is. paid In ad vance there is. little possibility that shorts can be forced to take, the hops at the price contracted the fact all even experts disagree upon quality always beine taken navantage of by trie contrac tors when conditions ravor in em. feign crop in siw x ore The New York Producers' Price Cor rent thus tells of the hop aituatlon In us Jitest issue: "flbcally there Is little or "nothing flo Jng. Brewers show no Interest and deal ers are merely watching- the situation feeling that al! conditions demand the most conservative operations ror the present at least. Latest reports from the interior of this state say that the crop is coming down light, and the green condition or tne nops nas caused a postponement of the main harvest. A lew seedlings are reported sold at 14c, The samples-received here are mostly green and immature and are not wanted. Crop,, conditions on the Pa ciflc coast are nffierallv unchanged there Is some talk of the Or'ejron yield being lighter .than was expected.

While a few sales were made previous to September 1 on the strength or tne advance in freight on that date, oriental buyers are not offering such high prices low. - Oata market is still quite' badly mixed as to sentiment, all sorts of values ruling among buyers.

This accounts for the snot ted condition of the market, for at times there was an-maicaiion or a recovery.
