The receipts of grain to-day were fair, and
prices fully maintained. Large quah,
titles of new corn were upon the streets anu
sold from Is 70 20 cents. The market Is mol
at all active and purchasers are only buy
ing in quantities to supply imhedlate
demand. E..EN H.
The farmers for several weeks past have
been busily engaged, in the grain growing
belt Of the state, blowing and seeding, anu
every favorable day is embraced TO push
forward their fall work. 1t Is new thought
that the acreage of wheat and other winter
crops will be twice as great rs last year.
The worms in some sections are ln1urihS
the growing crops materially, and our IN
formation from some of the more western
and southern counties is that they may have
to resced their land on this account,
gentleman writing us from Decatur, WISE
county, says: I'VE are having too much
rain. Wheat and all kinds of small gram
and grass eaten up by the worms, 40 not
think the worms will hurt the cotton.

stocks ut all the centres are gradually m
creasng. The "rng" which has.cornered the
wheat market'must lose heavily. Prices, 1t
is thought, will decline. The interest on
money, storage and insurance will soon eat
up any profits that might be made, even at
present prices. In the last three weeks corn
has declined in Chicago sixteen cents a
bushel, and yet it is so high that it will not
bear shipment to New York, and New YORK
is relatively higher than Liverpool
The wheat market is i'll a
similar fix. The. people OF western Eu-
ropo are purchasing grain from other
countries. Had prices been maintained at a
healthy condition we would probably have
sold TO Europe 1900 900 bushels more
grain than we.have Sold but other coun-
tries have supplied the demand, and n
heavy decline In all kinds OF grain seems
inevitable. Those who believe that wheat
will 20 higher are obliged to claim that the
worlds supply will he found inadequate to
the demand. All the facts, however, point
to an opposite conclusion. The latest num-
Der of the Produce Exchange Bulletin sets
forth the evidence very clearly. The re-
quirements of all importing countries it
puts at 2i5, 900 900 to go, 100000 bushels for
the crop year Russia,.it maintains, will
| furnish 100, 100000 bushels--an estimate of
1900 600 or 20,0000 900 bushels larger than
those generally accepted some time ago,
but perhaps fully justified by late accounts.
But Austro-Hungary will have
about 100000 bushels to export; the
Danube regions from 100000 to
and British India, which exported over
| 5000, 600 bushels to Great Britain alone last
year, will have something to add. Chill
and Australia will harvest III December and
| January, and their surplus promises to be
| over 15,000,00O bushels. Here are at loast
| lis, 900 900 bushels, if Russia yields as much
as the Bulletin estimates, or l3O,W0,OOO
| bushels il the earlier estimates for the Rus
sian crop be accepted. The United States,
therefore, may be called upon for Il guam
| tity not exceeding l35,OOO000 bush
| els, according to these estimates, aud more
likely to fall as low as 100000 bushels,
especially if prices are high;
sat the ,G e51por,o9 TdGor surplus inrdns
81 900 600 bushels for last year, is placed at
10000 900 bushels, Of which 9,3l6,305 have
already gone forward. From the Atlantic
states, IS, iS3, 27S bushels have already been
| exported from July LIST TO October LIST. The
| question is whether the Atlantic slope will
be able to supply from 100000 to 10000
600 bushels more-and the visible supply
October LIST was 10 43i, 352 bushels. A man
must be very sanguine "bull, indeed
who supposes that no more wheat Is com
ing from the farmers from October LIST tC
the end of the crop year, except enough fol
domestic use Perhaps the Bulletin esti
mates the Pacific surplus little too high
But there Is certainly reason to expect ex
ports of far more than 100000 bushel!
from the Atlantic states.
