The Chicago Tribune adheres to its
pessimist views in respect to the wheat
crop. 1t insists that the yield of winter
wheat will not exceed 200, OOO, 900 bush
els, and that of spring wheat will not
be equal to the crop of 1854, indicating
$50, 200, 900 bushels as liberal estimate
of the total product. The general av-
erage of estimates at present would
probably fall between the limits Of 3oO.-
OOO, 900 and $50, 900, 900 bushels.

The similarity of the condition OF
business in the leading commercial
centers Of Europe and in the United
States is quite marked-there is the
same noteworthy accumulation of money
in the financial centers, like low plane
of value for the raw material of manu-
features, prevailing depression in
nearly all kinds of business, with low
prices ruling, and small if any profits
obtainable in commercial transactions.
