Bradstreet's Report

NEW YORK, June S-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say: The general business sit
uation might well be expressed by the sin
gle word Crops" Certainly the very
hattering outlook rclorted in nearly all the
grain growing sections of the country, and
particularly as regards the growing wheat,
has been of nature to dominate the en-
tire trade situation. From all of the sur
plus wheat growing states there comes but
one report, that of large acreage ex-
tremely good weather and crop conditions
already foreshadowing an Unprecedented
production of the king of cereals. With the
steady and favorable progress making TO-
ward large wheat yield. has come the
final elimination of the May wheat deal
and a considerable quieting down of spec
ulative fever and prices. The closing of the
week witnesses an immense shrinkage in
the price paid for cash wheat, as COM
pared with a short time ago. partly the re-
suit, of course, of former high prices in
ducing freer movement of reserve wheat
stocks into sight, not only at home, but
abroad: That the ultimate effect of de-
clines has been beneficial rather than 9TH
erwise, however, is evidenced by the in
creased inquiry of exporters for wheat and

CHICAGO MARKET
Prices and Prospects Of the Trade In
Cereals

CHICAGO, June 3.-Strength in wheat
was due to an opening advance of from I'd.
to 2a4d. at Liverpool. The upward tendency
was sustained by reports from Kansas City
of considerable damage to the Kansas
wheat crop by bugs, rust and rank growth.
Cash wheat everywhere was scarce and the
bulk of 1t appeared to be under Letters
control. This, together with the fact that
Letter sold 100000 bushels cash wheat to
British millers yesterday. created a good
buying sentiment. Shorts who had profit
seemed disposed to cover and secure It,.
while other shorts bought to stop further
losses. On the bulges, however, new shorts
were quickly created, and this selling and
profit taking by the fortunate longs led to
frequent breaks. The market became strong
near the end of the session on heavy buy
ing by st. Louis shorts. July closed with
a gain of 2@2Ac, and September 112G15sc
Notwithstanding the strength of wheat
