Crop EstImate First New wheat.
SAN FRANCISCO, June l9.--Whito &
Lassak, grain merchants, and who, from
time to time, compile and issue statistics
OF grain yield, stated to-day to an Asso.
wheat yield Of California, this year,
would, at the lowest calculation, be fifty
six million bushels. The probabilities
were that the quantity would exceed
this, but it certainly will not be less.
Had it not been for the hot northers
experienced in the early part of June
the crop, they say, would have reached
the enormous figures OF sixtythree mil.
lion bushels, As it is there will be close
on a million and a.half Of tons for ex-
port. The problem now to be solved
Is where are vessels going to come from
to carry the wheat to markets. 1t Is
strongly hoped in the same quarter that
the Southern Pacific Railroad will be
willing and able to carry out the promise
made of shipping wheat to Liverpool
via New Orleans.
The frat two consignments OF new
California wheat OF this years crop
arrived to-day. One lot came from
Solano county, the other from Stanis-
laus county.s Last year the frs. con-
signment of new wheat did not arrive

in as carly as June 7th.
