This Years' Vines Need Warm
Weather Prices Good.
. ' The majority tf the bop yards In the
tate would be in, much better condition
'it they bad few more days , warm
weather. The weather so far this year
has been rather, unfavorable tor the hop
vines, but . they have don remarkably
well under ' the circumstances.. In some
of the fields up the valley the hop leaves
are beginning to turn yellow on account
" of Insufficient sunshine- u ' i .-
' Dealers "all over the coast think tnls
wlH be 'the most prosperous -yeas, la the
history of the hpp Industry In the state.
Good prices art being secured by contract
ing, and If the dealer Is a well establish
ed ode, growers da much 'better on an
average by contracting their annual yield
In advance. 1 - , , -
Jit the present time the contract price
ranges from. U 'cents to 13K cents, - and
fc there Is some talk'of even a higher rats
being offered. 1 . ,'
At nearly all of the last year's crop Is
sold there Is not much Interest In the
prices obtained now- Jforthat yield. Deal
'.ers today' are (juotlftg as high, as 1 cents
f for good stock of the 1901 cropr A '
' Before the last Season opened dealers
were around telling -the growers about the
large crops that were growing in the for
eign countries and also In tlseEastern
and Western, states of this Country They
' claimed 'that with such a large output
; that prices'Would necessarily be very
low, but they figured- without their host
as there was a short crop In nearly all
the places mentioned. ' :
i The pooling of a large amount of the
' valley hops also had a tendency to stiffen
tip prices a trifle. ' The entire lot , of pool
ed hops were sent to London In charge
of a special representative of the' grow
ers Interested, and the entire lot sold at
th top price,: in the London market
,-, It Is said that about . one-third of the
next year's Oregon bop crop is already
contracted, for, the prices ranging from
10 cents to ll cents a pound. " '
v Reports from the celebrated Puyallup
'district In "Washington state that the hops
- there are looking fine. All Indications
point to a much larger crop than ever.
The hops are a little taller than the tops
Of the poles and present a very gooa
color. The Taoome Ledger- says of the
prospects: Hop growers are being of
fered 12 and It cents per pound for this
season's crop, an increase of 8 cents'over
the contract prices of last yean and the
hop growers are Jubilant over the present
prospects for a big harvest with good
prices, 'The hop crop locttTwell, In fact
better than' It ever did before at this sea
son of the year. ' If the present conditions
continue -and the market remains firm
there will be good money In the business
for the grower this year, and those who
have hops to sell will find ,& ready and
reasonable market Hops of the . 1901
season are quoted on the market at from
14, to 16 cents per pound. '

The girl, who to 15 years old, presents
a statement, written by herself, In which
she says the assault was committed by
a ; United States soldier at tha barracks.
The soldier had "threatened to kill her If
she told. Her father had so often warned
her not to go away - from home that she
refrained from telling of the soldier's
crime because she did not want to con
fess to her father that she had disobeyed
him. , ' ' '' '
Finally she accused her father, think
ing he would ba sent to prison, where he
could not punish her for having disobeyed
him.' The girl is deaf and dumb and

The building now going oh would not
make a stranger think that there
never was a strike on. The walls
of the .Lawrence building have
reachel up - - one story. The
brick piers or the Falling building are
progressing satisfactorily, The carpen
ters are pushing their work along on
Dr. K. A. J. MacKenale's new building
at the corner of Sixth and Davis streets,
and something la decidedly doing, also,
on. I. Lewis' building at Fifth and Davis
streets. '.-
Cement walks are replacing plank
walks in many parts of the town." the
Improvement In this lino along Third
street recently will be especialy appre
ciated by the public. Another Improve
ment, that deserves notice, particularly
because It was so long neglected, are
the repairs to the pavement on 'VPashlnr
ton street Between Third and" Fourth
there Here exactly, 13 .holes-funlucky
number) which have been repaired.
Thirteen unsightly "chuck t holes" ;ln the
asphalt pavement are not calculated to
give visitors to the city a very good im
pression as to the enterprise of Portland
residents. If this sort of thing only
continues every one will be pleased. It
Is a matter that is "up to',, tha city
engineering department .
' It Is to be hoped that the labor troubles
will soon be settled because It Is rumored
that Henry VV'etnhard has decided to post
pone the erection of his proposed building
on Oak street this season, on account
of the strike, on the building Mr. Weln
hard has already under construction at
Fourth and Alder streets the . bases and
other stones for the piers are. getting
on in a very encouraging manner to the
contractor, Mr. Langford. The other day
a block of stone weighing 10 tons was de
posited in front of the site of the new
Welnhard building, to be cut up :,and
dressed Jrtto sections foi the pier bases.
The stone work for - the t addition to
the First National Bank buUdlng are up,
and the stone proves an excellent match
for tne walls In the main building.
The residence of Walter F. Burrell on
the East Side,' the construction of which
was delayed by tha strike,..! again mov
ing onward toward completion.
Another cement walk Is to be laid. This
time It will replace the plank walk In
front of the Alnaworth property at the
northeast corner of , Fourth and Oak
streets. It will extend for 200 eet Ce
ment walks are .also being laid in front
of the residence of Judge Bellinger and
of United States District .Attorney Hall,
At Judge Bellinger's residence cemenf
steps and bu tresses are to be put in.
G. H. Smith, one of Portland's wide
awake real estate men, said yesterday;
"The backwardness with which the
election returns came In and .the general
uncertainty resulting therefrom, have had
a tendency to interrupt the course of real
estate transactions. The attention ft the
public has-been distracted, but now that
the, contest is over . matters wm arop
back into their natural Channels again,
"As the result of a partial, settlement
of the strike, building operations hayy
been only artly resumed. .All these
things tend to Interfere with the realty
business.' Notwithstanding, there is some
thing doing In real estate every day, and
there will be more later oil ., V
"In the matter of real estate outside
of the city there Is a decidedly heavy
demand for timber lands, whether they
are Immediately accessible .or not. Some
desire to buy as an Investment and are
Witling to wait 10 years for results.
"Thero Is -xm inquiry by newcomers
from the East 'Jet screage, especially
Tyithln HtKi'iOimlle-llmlt of. the cityThese
tracts bring trom 35 to saw per acre.
The matter does not stop with Inquiry,
either, for a great many are buying.
Some ask for lands already improved;
others want unimproved "property. Fruit
ranches seem to be most in demand Just
now."

THE MARKETS.
The past week In the grain market has
been unusually quiet In the matter of
quotation changes, not a single one being
made. The Portland Fluorlng Mills Com
pany reports grain of all kinds In a very
dilapidated condition. No charters have
bwei secured, and no sales have been
made the past week. Flour is the same
in price. ,
The vegetable market according to
Glsfke & Co., Is normal, with nothing ex.
citing in quotations. Receipts are about
equal to the demand, and prices are the
same. '
There Is every prospect for an advance
in butter the latter part of next wjk.
Butter has been going Into cold storage
at a frightful rate, there being Just
enough left on the open market to supply
the immediate demand! Quotations today,
have not changed.
toft, Hlne Co. report rather, liberal
receipts in the. local meat market Re
ceipts of veal, pork and mutton have been
especially good the past week. The retail
