HOP PRODUCTION IS BETTER THAN WAS EXPECTED Totals Are Now Said to Be Close to Those of a Year Ago; New Acreage Is Big Help; Quality Is Above Former Expectations. The hop crop of Oregon U coming out much better than many interest have been willing heretofore to acknowledge. Tbe esti mate of leading Interests Ux!r range from lZS.OuO to loS, 000 bules, or substantially the sine aa a year ago. Tbu Idea of a 70.OOU bale crop a forecast by a local publication aonie day ago Is believed by tbe trade in gen eral to be a plan of certain Interest to fool grower luto holding for higher prices than they can actually obtain. In nearly all sections of tLe Willamette valley tbe bop crop ia turning out well. Wltb a fair Increase in new creiige thi season, ome of the trade Is Inclined to l!h-ve that last year's totals will be more than secured wbeu Ibe total return fur this seaaou are lu, but tbl Is by uo mean, fhe general view of tbe trade. Quality of this year's crop in Oregon will likewise be somewbit better than many bsve been willing to admit. It is stated that owneri of yard In other states have been the chief ones to cry down the quality of tbe Oregon bop crop this season, while claim lug their own dUtrtcta to be producing per fect quality. Market for bops continues stagnant at all points. Some efforts ar- oelng made to sell but dealers are generally awallisg definite results of the crop.before taking Luld. Further Sharp Rise In the Stock Market New York. Kept. 10. (I. N. 8.) A ma jority of the listed stocks were higher st the opening of the market today.

Bethlehem Steel, the big feature "war stock. roe in proiniuence after the flret hour of trading when It soared to 335. a gain of 1 1 points above the opening price. With the advance in Bethlehem, a number of other "war" Issue were carried up. Crucible Steel sold Op to U1V. Colorado Fuel & Iron advanced to 47 ft and Westingbouse Electric sold at lid. Arrival here of the English and French bankers to readjust the foreign exchange sit uation In tbla country caused a better feeling In tbe "war" stock. An unfavorable Influ ence In the market was that Austria might break off diplomatic relations wltb the I'nlted States. Railroad stock were in strong position and in healthy demand. The favorable crop stfuation and the excellent banking condttlons were Incentives which brought about the high er range In prices. New Haven continued to feature the rails. It sold at USVi early. Reading advanced to 151 before noon. Southern Pacific sold at 80. It. 4 O. went to 83. Erie gained a point early, touching 3014. Hock Ixland was weak, dropping two points.
