The worlds wheat crop outlook continues
to favor the United States as much as it
did eighteen months ago The outlook is
that Russia alone, of all wheat exporting
countries will be able to compete with the
United States. The advance of more than
20 cents a bushel compared with year ago.
in the face of domestic wheat crop prob
ably 100, 900 bushels larger than last
year, and the prospect for a higher level
from importing countries, explain why
the American farmer is to secure his pro-
portion of the advance and the coming era
of prosperity That he is alive to the situa-
ton is indicated by tendency to hold
back wheat already harvested, notwith-
standing higher quotations.
Unfavorable features include the con-
tinuance of the strike of bituminous coal
miners in the western and southern states,
which now begins to threaten the con-
tinued activity of industries dependent
upon that variety of fuel, the practical
stagnation of the Bessemer pig iron and
steel billet market, with prices as low as
ever known. the shutting down of New
England cotton mill machinery to reduce
output and get rid of stocks on hand and
the unsatisfactory condition of the whole
wooden goods market, owing to the rela-
lively low prices of products compared
with quotations for raw material. Exports
ol wheat llour included as wheat, from
both coasts of the United States and from
Montreal this weel7 was 1875, 2SS bushels,
an increase of about $4,000 bushels, COM
pared with last week. for which shipments

CHICAGO MARKET
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO, July 23.-The first quotation
made in Liverpool this morning for wheat
was at ~ decline, but before trading con-
cluded it had recovered the loss and had
something to the good. That caused the
opening here to show some improvements
over the lowest prices made on the curb
yesterday. First prices for September were
from 1874 to 1898, but selling became too
heavy to maintain these figures, and it
weakened and sold irreguarly down to
1855 in the course of the first forty min
utes of the session. During the wide
spread intervals that July was heard from
it was at about cents premium over
September. Chicago receipts since last
Wednesday morning were al cars, 1O7 of
them new. Last year for the two CORE
spending days 291 cars We're received, go
of which were new wheat Minneapolis
and Duluth received 1863 cars, against Sl2
i week ago and 2S6 the year before. Crop
reports were more favorable. Threshing in
Kansas is giving yields that vary from Is
bushels, minimum. to AZ bushels, maxi
num- per acre. Reports from Europe
about Russias present offerings of wheat
were contradictory. One dispatch from
Berlin said they were increasing, while
Antwerp reported no increase in Russian
offerings and none expected before Sep
tember. The closing cables gave Paris
at about &c per bushel decline, but Ant
werp at considerable advance, equal
to about &c for American winter and 4c
per bushel for Walla Walla. Liverpool
closed at an advance for spot wheat of
11aa1d for July and sd for September.
The reselling here of cargo of wheat pre-
viously bought for export was one of the
weakening factors, and the receipts of
2O9 600 bushels at Kansas City likewise had
a bearish influence. New York reported
that nearly all wheat offered by cable yes
terday to Liverpool had been accepted,
and that other foreign markets had sent
selling orders for options. Clearances OF
wheat from Atlantic ports since Wednes-
day were equal to 652,O0o bushels. Long
