good deal of stress has been placed
on the slow movement OF wheat from
farmers hands east of the Rocky noun
tains during October, 1890, rs compared
with October last year, but il remains TO
be added that the movement has in
creased notably since October, amount
ing TO 3 365 900 bushels during the week
ended November s, and to 2 POI 600
bushels last week. II this rate OF COM
ing into sight Is to be maintained until
January next, and it apparently is not,
aggregate avalluble stocks on January l,
1891 would fully, il not more than equal
the total reported on Jsnunry !, 1890.
Storks of wheat increased IA 600
bushels in Minnesota, Dakota, Iowa and
Wisconsin elevators reported to Brad
streets last week-SG7 600 bushels at
Minneapolis, 200 200 bushels liz Manitoba
elevators, l56 coo bushels at Duluth,
29S 600 bushels III New York city, 2Ol,-
600 bushels in transit via trunk-line
railways for the seahoari, l25 600 bush
els ut Fort William and Port Arthur,
Ont. aud l20 200 bushels at Buffalo.
Other increases IN stock were less than
l0h, 600 bushels each. Stocks o! avail
able wheat decreased 2l0 600 bushels In
transit on the lakes, 2OS 900 bushels on
the canal, II 900 bushels at Toledo, ana
rs 900 bushels at st. Louis. Other de-
creases reported are unimportant.
Within the past year or two quite eI-
tensve storage facilities tor wheat have
been constructed along the lines of rail-
WAYS and elsewhere in Eastern Wash
ington and in Oregon, and we have
finally completed arrangements to i'll
cluie practically complete report each
week of available stocks of wheat in the
Pacific coast states. The inclusion of
eastern interior Washington elevator
supplies increases oar aggregate credited
to that state So $40 900 bushels since
last week OF which not to exceed $780,
600 bushels really constitutes an increase
IN stocks within ons week The pros
pert now therefore, with fairly full
maintenance OF the movement OF grain
from farmers hands to points of
accumulation between November 10
and November 20, is for a
total of available stocks of wheat
east and west of the Rocky mountains on
November ~. 1890. about equal to TINT
held one year ago, on November 80,
1889. This promises to be the case,
largely because OF the addition of more
tUuU ,UUO VI ciSNaspt
in Washington state to our records. On
November 80, 1889. the aggregate of
available wheat III the United States and
Cauata, both COASTS, reported to this
journal, was g. SIS 900 bushels On No
vembrr Is. 1879. We fiud %. 437 49,
bushels available, aud prospect Of in
creases of perhaps 5000 900 east OF and
| 200 900 bushels west of the Rocky
mountains, during the fortnight 10 IN
November 30. Should tins estimate
prove true, the aggregate available on
November 90, 1890, would rroXimats
81. 437 ,4S5 bushels. against 62 .575 .0O0
bushels on November 50, 1889. The
heavy increase in stocks OF wheat afioat
for Europe last week, and of stocks held
at principal points of accumulation in
the United Kingdom and elsewhere
abroad. begin to force recognition that
our Pacific coast, as well rs other hold
ers or surplus stocks of wheat, are SELL
ing to European importers with perhaps
more freedom thun holders of wheat in
the Atlantic coast states had thought
them able to do Bradstreets.
