Beary Decrease la Beer Consumption.
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-

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.

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. The
Ijondon Brewers" Journal of August IS
4 estimates the Knglish yield at 14 hun
dredweight to the - acre, . which would
make the crop about BfiO.pOO hundred-

While the receipts of wheat hers are

these prices.
On the board of trade there was a
fractional advance in HPDtember op

advance in December of U.e Disced the

lower prices were orrered at tne stare
The market for export flour Is very
dull because of the hlsher freight rate

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. Producers
are still generally holding for advanced
values.
On the board of trade today there
was no change In either oars or barley

Probable bad statements by various

many took advantage of it bV selling

This accounts for the snot ted condition
of the market, for at times there was
an-maicaiion or a recovery.
Erie's bad showing in its statement
caused fresh selling pressure and this
affected the Harrlman list The real
break was forced by American Smelters,

that Lawson was on both sides of the
