MR.. c. L. ToDD's VIEWS.

Mr. Charles L. Todd. president of the Gallego

effect of the treaty upon the flour trade said.

affect the flour trade most benef1cialiy. Here

mitted free into Brazil. while the tariff on -four

BRAZILIAN COMMERCE.

The Richmond Dispatch ofthe 18th reports the
views of several leading men of that city en-
gagged in the export-trade with Brazil as that
large lin terest will be affected under the recent
Iy concluded treaty regulating the commerce
between the United States and that country.
1t may be safely concluded that but short
while will elapse before we shall witness the
full revival of our flour and coffee-trade with
Brazil. This is a matter which deeply con-
Germs our whole wheat producing area. and
will directly enhance In an Unreasonable des
gree our Valley agricultural- and four-produc-
ing interests. The progress we are making in
enIarging our milling capacity deserves the
highest recognition, and Staunton and Au-
gusta county will reap large benefits therefrom-

A BIG RIVAL.

"One of the Rio Mills. known as the English
mill. has a reputed capacity of 2 900 barrels per
day." Mr.. Todd continued, land has proved a
very active and strong competitor. Rnt the
great advantage of free importatious and the
natural advantages OF the American millers
consisting of abundant cheaper wei, as bet
ter varieties of wheats. and much more econo
n1ical WATER power, will, we think, inevitably
restore the trade to itsformer volume, if not
largelysurpass It,"

One of the best informed firms of Chicago
eggaged IN the grain business. closes its last
review of the grain trade as follows
I 1t is useles to try to measure up stocks to
within single bushel or even a million, but
the more the condition is examined the more
difficult is to see that the Mississippi Valley can
spare any more wheat or -four to go abroad
without drawing nearly equal quantity rom
the mountain region beyond It, II that view
be correct a little capital to cover the current
movement would suffice for big bulge. be
cause there would not be the Willingness to
realize interior holdings which is shown near
last two months is suspiciously ike that of
last winter up to this date In the season, and
If it should persist SO month longer the PROB
able result would be great nervousness here
as well as abroad. 1t would need steady run
of good crop weather from this time on to In
duce farmers to part with their wheat freely,
and they do not seem to have enough on hand
to cause very big break If they should want
to let go. Certainly the railroad men who
have been studying the situation with an eye
to determining the probable volume of carry
ing business in wheat are not expecting to do
much more on the crop of last year, and the
visible supply is now about quarter less than
that of a year ago."
The following, referring to the spring wheat
sections of country is from the Chicago crop
correspondent of the New York Journal of
Commerce.
in the Red River Valley no rain has fallen
since October last, hence farmers in the spring
wheat areas are anxiously watching and wait
ing for moisture to put the ground in good
shape for spring seeding"
The Baltimore Journal of Commerce OF last
week furnishes a lengthy and interesting re-
view of the wheat trade for the week. Next
after the remarks discussing the cash wheat
the following occurs in the re-
view
''In the meantime the receipts of winter and
spring wheat are not up to last years totals-a
clear demonstration OF two facts: First, the
crops of winter and spring were smaller than
last year, and the claim that the latter crop
was larger than last season preposterous;and.
that interior requirements have
been greater than formerly. else enhanced
values would have attracted whatever move
ment existed to the giain centera. Spring
wheat is q per cent higher than last ysar at
this time and winter 20. taking the Baltimore
aud Chicago markets as q basis and yet inte- |
rior pril es have been relatively higher during |
the entire season, and interior mills are now |

THE BRAZILIAN WHEAT SUPPLY.

There is no native wheat in Brazil. and the
Rio mills draw their supplies largely from the
La Platte country (Argeptine Repuhlic). from
Australia, India, perhaps, and the Pacific
Coast. The Pacific-Coast wheat is not strong
IS the eastern wheats and the yield In flour is
not as large The Rio mills have no water
power, ave without home supplies of fuel, and
are compelled TO use coal which, we under
stand Is imported at cost of from IS to $40 per
ton. Again, Brazil being grazing country
there Is very poor demand for mill offai.
which fact means another great advantage for
the American miller. We believe also that the
general effect of this reciprocal treaty will be
to stimulate and increase the trade between
the two countries"

amount Of about S45 per annum and got free passes
Earlv in the present year Manager Furber told wit

was finally made whereby $50 paid for adver-
Using and three passes were given 70 him.
On crOss-examinatlon the witness said he thought
the passes were worth than the difference be-
tween the $50 now paid and S45. 1t not true
that the passes were given for free cards in the paper
Mr. Foster asserted that he had given to the road
