WHEAT-The option market was a trife
stronger at this mornings session of the Call
Board, as was also the business OF the sample
market But local spectators are not dis
posed TO operate on account of contradictory
reports as to the effects OF the late rains. 1t
can but be believed, however, that with con-
tlnued favorable weather the growing crops
VIII be materially increased. There was
good demand, and desirable lots of No. Ship
ping We're taken at 81 4S34 to 81 80; Choice

TO 81 5614. Receipts to-day were 8, ,466 ctls.

early IN the morning at 81 4254 quite hrIh,
but at noon had receded to 81 AZ under
pretty free openings, with sales Of 2,1OO
tons. Buyer the Season Wheat opened at
81 5lL and closed at 81 5114. There was
stronger feeling in both Chicago and New
York markets, with an advance OF 11ac a
oushel, but later advices show that TINS au-
vance was lost, leaving the market practically

otherwise might have tak ken place NeVerthe-

HOPS-The market is entirely bare of stock
in dealers hands. In fact, the supply is very
small all over the varied States, and the re-
markable instance OF shipments being re-
turned to New York from England of Ameri-
can Hops has recently taken pace On the
Pacific Coast 1000 bales would probably
cover the entire supply. In California the
growing vines look we'll They are fully three
weeks backward but that is the case with our
products generally. In Washington there is
some appearance of the louse but growers are
doing all in their power to fight the pest, and
1t is not known as yet that any material uan-
age Will occur. The acreage in Washington
has increased nearly 1000 acres, mostly in
Yakima County, where there will be large
production from young vines. Ii is now eX-
pecied that the product of the coast viii be
10000 TO 10000 bales. In the absence of
any present supply there is little or no busi-
ness doing, but there is some inquiry for new
crop. Buyers have been giving &c to l nc q
pr und for crops in russian River and tor ia
