Of Pacific coast wheat there will be for ex-
port. A statement was sent to England
TWO weeks ago that the quantity would not
exceed 10000 tons, or II. 100000 bushels.

that this estimate is entirely erroneous
They figure as follows: This years crop,
2%,CCO,OOO bushels; carried over from last
year, 10000, 600 bushels; total quantity Of
Of wheat i0,Cshforpia and Oregon at the
present time 33 100000 bushels. Deduc,
wbat is required for local use and seeding
'h,Ie will remain jO00jO tons, or say 26,-

much of the California grain is still in the
field, no one has positive knowledge Of the
actual quantity on hand
