The Modern Miller Of to-day will say:
The week Of excitement in the wheat mar
kets. with the phenomenal advance in
prices of this cereal. has exercised a CORE
spending effect on the -four market.
Though there is a marked disparity in the
advance OF the two markets. the South
indicates a quicker appreciation OF the rise
and shows a gain Of % to 50 cents per bar
rel over last weeks figures. Buyers are
holding on. however. having a belief in
lower prices soon or a lack Of ready cash.

change in prices and exports. while the
Eastern buyers appear TO be nervously
watching the market. with light purchas-
ing. The condition of the wheat market
IS so exciting and skyward that predictions
are useless. One dollar wheat. however. is
confidently looked for. as. with the eNcep-
tion of Kansas. the movement Of the wheat
Is slow and foreign demand continues
strong. Rumors Of crop damage are still
rife, with much truth in many sections.

New York. Aug. 13.-Quite a number Of
factors combined to-day TO exercise a rath-
er depressing influence or values on the
Stock exchange. There also were other
incidents which were not calculated to
have any effect on intrinsic values, served
to put a damper on the speculative ardOr
which has become rampant in Wall street.
The tone of weakness and hesitancy in
the wheat market on account of lower
prices abroad and A diminished export de-
mand were most keenly felt in the stock
market. The grain carrying roads Of
course showed most sympathy with the
wheat market and were being most imme-
diately affected. But every department of

other one thing. Besides this very i'm

decidedly askance at the speculation
which broke out yesterday and to-day in
