The sensationalnews comes from
Kansas that just after the Cincin-
natl convention, FRANK MoGRATH,
presidentof the FarmersAlliance of
that State, started out on still
hunt among the county Alliances,
and the result is shown that last
Saturday the Alliance of Cloud
County passed a set of resolutions
by which they determined to with
draw from the third party and
stick to their old party affiliations.
The movement is spreading, and it
has been officially stated that other
county Alliances will follow suitfor
the reason that they will do moth
ing to jeopardize the success of the
Republican party. This is a warn
ing to Democracy, and will prove to
Democrats that any division in the
party will be dangerous expert
ment.

SUMMARY or THE SITUATION.


SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 12-The wheat market
was strong and prices of shipping grades were

Oats and corn are dull and prices weak
The vegetable market is well supplied and
prices are weak Corn is doing better Toma-
toes are higher and receipts are falling lofE Po-
tatoes are still drug in the market and onions
are weak. Cueumbers and summer squash
meet with slow sale. Lima beans are plentiful
and lower.
Summer fruits are coming in freely and can
ners are doing little to relieve the market
Watermelons are very plentiful, but the demand
is slow. Bartlett pears move OF slowly. Peaches
and apricots are easy at quotations Lines and
lemons are pretty well out Of the market
The market for dairy produce is still weak,

THE HOP HARVEST.
Growers Who Sprayed Their Vines VIII
Have a Heavy Crop.

PUYALLuP, Aug. I3.-[speeial THAT "hope
springs eternal in the human breast is being
amply justified by the hop growers Never were
farmers more easily swsyed in their opinions
concerning futures" than are our usually con-
sentative hop growers. Not day passes but
dozens Of them may be seen on the streets of
our city eagerly questioning each other, and, in
fact, everybody they talk to-which is every body
they meet-as TO what the outcome will be.
As far as can be CLEANED from all the avail
able sources, the hop situation remains much
the same Gs it was a week ago. Spraying is still
in full swing, and is doing good work. The
burrs are forming beautifully, and the predic-
ton is that those who did not do any spraying
will harvest half an average crop, while those
who are fighting the vermin Will have heavy
crop. The harvest will be several days earlier
this season than IL was last, and apart from this
growers viii be anxious to get to the picking as
soon as possible, SO Is to save as many pos
sibie. Ii is well TO warn growers against this,
as ii makes their crop much less salable to be
green picked. Better be sure and let them
ripen, as it Will only be q matter of few days
anyway.
Another question which seems to agitate the
minds of the growers somewhat is that OF pick
ers. On account of the many wild rumors afioat
concerning the destruction of the hop crop, it is
feared that many OF the usual piekers will stay
away this year. 1t is TO be hoped that pickers
won't pay any attention to any such nonsense
there is going to be lots of picking all the
hop region, and they should be on the ground a
little earlier this year in order TO begin just at
the right time
There is very little change to report concern
ing the New York crop. Lice and mould are
prevalent. but not to any very great extent IL
has always been observed, however, that the
only time 10 know anything about the probable
crop in New York is when it is in the bale Some
of the earlier varieties will be ready for picking
the end of this week.
Following is the latest English advice, as pub
ished by W. III. d Fl. LeMay, of London:
Although the vine continues TO make grand
progress, the reports from the plantations are
not quite so satisfactory, they all agree that
min has increased during the last week and is
now causing great anxiety. There has been
considerable business done during the past week
at the very low prices now ruling and holders
are most anxious to clear out before the new
crop comes in.
Holders of old stock are now glad to sell at a
reduction of over g on last sutumn's prices,
equal to SIS on ll2 lbs, 13lSc. per lb.l
Following are the latest quotations.
