Force on Demand for Wheat


The threatened trouble between Eng
land and France over the Fashoda mat
ter caused quick advance in the price
of wheat, but that question seems now
likely to be amicaOly settled without re
course to war and prices have receded
equal to the sudden advance. In tn.
event of war anywhere in Europe, the
people over there know they must de
pend upon the United States for sup
plies.
There are other reasons for al ad-
vance in price of wheat. The European
countries which draw upon the United
States for grain are now able to see
what their needs will be. Stocks are
running short. In some districts IL
Russia from which exact reports were
not obtsinable early, the shortage i;

thing was peace today and foreigner:
need another war scare to stir them up
as they are determined to buy oul
grain as low as possible. Some rain:

and twenty eight million more rye thar

Nevertheless the seaboard reported ex-
