THE HOP MARKET.-Le May Bros Lon
don hop report, under date of September
22d, is to the effect that buyers refuse to
operate, except at a reduction of rates, and
growers refuse to put hops on the market
at ruling prices. Emmett Wells New York
Hop CirctllGr of October 4th says that there
is no change in the market there: The
week exports though comparatively small
for the season, show marked increase
over the previous week, which in itself is
healthy feature, and should the weekly
shipments from this onward show pro-
portionate gain, they must have their in
fiuence in keeping prices from declining
kilograms from the interior this morning
speak of more tirmness and report free
sales at 20 cents for choice hops. Anything
offered below this price is decidedly off in
quality. Our brewers are still holding off,
many Of them allowing their stock to be
come much reduced, under the belief that
not much if any advance in prices can take
place while the exports continue so small.
Large orders from London, however, would
soon bring them upon the market, espec-
tally If there is any prospect of prices adj
vancing." J. I. Cochran a. CO., hop deal
crs of San Francisco, reported ON the 18th
inst. that "the market shows no change
whatever. We hear of no orders for ex-
port, and growers, with few exceptions, re-
gard the situation with utter Indifference
Some growths are being offered and pressed
for sale, but as they are of medium
quality, they do not meet with much favor
A lot Of go bales medium Sacramentos
were sold on Wednesday, terms private
choice hops are being withheld from the
market, and the chances are they will re-
main so until brewers are ready to go in
the market for business"
