HOP BEARS ARE CAUGHT filAYBE i 1 Believed They Have Sold More Hops Than Remain Unsold in the State. DRY FARM MEET COMES TO CLOSE Officers for Ensuing Year Are Elected and Reso lutions Passed. .-. By Hyman X. Cohen. ( The hop market wae quite active dur- inr the past week but the bulk of the : sales were made around 6c a pound. Growers let go of their supplies when ever approached, no matter what price was offered in situation at present is entirely in the bands of the bears and they are taking their time about covering. It developea that a number of the lead ing hop dealers have banded together and are now secretly preparing statis ; tics In order to see Just what the last hop crop was and how many bales re main unsold In the hands of growers or are neia oy speculators, which means f Tactically the same in its effect upon be market. Thus far and the count of the hop men ia almost complete tne indica tions are that the crop will not go be- ?rond 90.000 bales, and some of the eading dealers profess to believe that It will reach somewhat under that fig ure. The present weak etate of the market Is due almost entirely to the action of the big bears who persist in send ing thousands of oirrulars to the eastern brewers and buyers to the ef fect that Oregon's 19C8 crop of hops reached a total of at least 115.000 bales. This has had the effect of stop ping a large per cent of the buying which would have otherwise material ised before this time. It is now stated that only a fractional amount of hops has been purchased to date this season by American brewers; the bulk of Oregon's sales thus far be ing for foreign account. Then again, it is stated that the shorts have covered but few of their sales and that the total amount of hops remaining unsold in all hands In .the state is not sufficient at this time to fill the sales of the shorts who are trying their utmost to work .the brewers into a bearish frenzy and thus cover their sales In cash at a low price per pound. It Is known positively that a large minium! ui American orewers nave oeen following the advice of the bears this vear and have held off their purchases (Special Dtepatcb to Th Journal.) Pullman.
