This great decrease in beer manufac ture in the United 8tates is having a quieting effect upon the hop market In all world's centers. While It is stated that the production of beer outside of the United State Is Increasing, It is pot believed that the decrease of thla country can ba made up by the In creases elsewhere. Business conditions throughout Europe are very similar to the one noted here and this along with local option is ' what Is 'Cutting down the make of beer and consumption of hnni. All world's hop markets are nnUi.r thla season than ever before. Europe cannot have consumed all Its surplus supplies even though the beor make there was greauy lncrea-rn. 1 no fact that the large dealers still have their warerooms full of 1906 and 1907s shows that brewers are not in need of pupplie for It 1 positively known that these- Mg people would unload Jf they could evfen at the present low level, of i quotations for old Stock. . , 1 ,. v Bottom Frio, May Be Xeaenad. The trade in general is of the opinion- that the, bottom has been reached -j'or nop prices, but no great lmprove- , ment in ouying is expeciru unmr. 1 pome of the big ones get scared about he ahort crop and bull the market In n effort to get tneir orders xuiea iirax. ' Home few sales are still being reported in the valley around 7c a pound. Quite lew deal s are reponea in 1110 jsuvrr i ion district, where McNeff Brothers jnd Callin - & Linn hava purchased around fie a pound for prime to choice f goods.. While lacking confirmation, the : report printed in une journal yesterday ' regarding the purchase by Horat in Lane county. Is generally believed by the trade. 4 , Quirt lone In the East. " The New York Producers' Price Cur rent gives the following review of gen eral conditions: . "Little, If any, change can be noticed in the general conditions of' the hop market. The drought in this state has not been broken and ' no pressing has been done. A rew smau transactions are reported at 10 13c, but dealers as a-rule are not showing interest. .The Pacific coast markets are also very quiet and- we. do- not hear of -any tran saction. More .samples, .however,' are coming In from there Tind from all sec tions show nice quality.- Business on the local market Is at a standstill, and with brewers it la ' only of ft- hand-to-mouth character. ' The ' revised quota tions 4iven are simply nominal. "The Internal Revenue returns for August show a falling off In beer sales ovr August, 1907, ot 1,065,298 barrels. This phenomenal decrease was entirely unexpected, and will undoubtedly have a weakening effect on our markets. The total decrease to date since Janu irv 1 Is now 9.183.6(0 barrels, point between ,ouo,ouv Oct. 1 10 Sept. 30.... 9 8epC 19.....

As compared with 1907 the make of beer during Auguat 1908 is 1.066.394 barrels leas.

The market for both cash oats and barley la very firm, and prices are Doing rigiaiy maintained oy proaucers, who simply will not let go at any loss In values, in fact most or them are hold ing. out for a higher rana-e. 1 Oats and barley futures are' likewise held very firm by holders, Sand while mere waa quite iree orrermg 01 uecem ber, January. February and March deliv eries at .$1.86 a cental, the sellers were not -pressing their - supplies upon the market sufficiently hard to force them to acceDt a sllahtlv lower Drlce. 'Views of buyers and sellers are apart for the moment, ana no pusiness resulted in the coarse grain list today. Weakness -and dullness Is shown in the market for wheat futures, with Oc tober and November each Uc a bushel lower for both the bid and asked prices, while the bid for December delivery closed lc under yesterday at 91c The cash situation is steady, , though some what dull at the moment. Exporters who have ships engaged are the only buyers of note at the moment, and they seem quite able to necure their needs at the fractional advitnce in quotations re ported her yesterday. Lack of a suit able export flour call and a not over ac tive local market for the same product has caused th suspension of purchases by most of' the millers for all grades ex cept the valley and bluestem, and as stocks of these 'varieties are small, the business Is likewise light. , While no change la. shown at the mo ment in mlllfeeds. the market is firmer.! and In Borne quarter an advance 'In prices Is talked of. , ,. - Hay Is steadv at former values.
