WHEAT.


In his London circular Beerbohm gave an
estimate on the Indian wheat crop. making it
materially less than had been anticipated
Estimates hitherto made a decrease in the
crop of 100000 to 30,00o,0o0 bushels,
but his estimates on July 4th showed de-
crease of 64,0oO,0o0 bushels in the crop IN
India, which would reduce the total to 49,
100000 bushels. The average is about 24O,-
100000 bushels. Some doubt was cast upon
this, owing to the fact that the Indian ship
ments for this season have been nearly as
large as they were for the corresponding time
last year The total from April 1st up to
July 4th amounts to 16,4oO,oo0, against
17,oSO,oOo for the corresponding time last
year.
Mining shares to-day were fairly active but
at lower prices. 1t is hard to get the public
interested, owing to so much money being lost
by those who did deal in them.
