Liverpool wheat quotations before
business started here showed an adj
vance Of 1A911sd over last nights
close on fears as to the controversy
with France over the Nile territory.
That advanced values here sharply at
the opening and the traders were slim
ulated into unusual activity. Add
tional Impetus was given the market
by the fact that shipments from last
week showed a falling of some 100000
bushels as compared with those Of the
preceding week, and because OF heavy
cable acceptances OF wheat offers made
over Sunday by exporters. To further
add to the discomfort OF those who
went short from last week there were
pointers" in circulation that the gov
eminent crop report would make very
buIlish showing on wheat The combi-
nation was sufficient to cause general
covering by shorts of almost every sort
Meanwhile the early bearlsh news was
entirely disregarded The Michigan
authorities estimated the total yield Of
that state as the largest ever grown
there, New South Wales placed her eX-
portable surplus greater than usually
reported for all OF Australia and later
there were reports that the foreigners
were re-selling wheat on account Of
the sharp advance. In consequence of
this the market did not fully maintain
It's early figures, nevertheless the trade
was not disposed to hammer prices as
the liberal rains in the northwest prom
ised to cut on receipts 20 some extent
Another factor that discouraged any
selling was the visible supply only
showed an Increase of $4,000 bushels
where an Increase OF 100000 bushels
had been expected. Chicago received
4s7 cars against 3O5 last year, and Min
neapolls and Duluth receipts were 1,502
compared with 2,i4S last week, and
1870 a year ago. Primary market re.
ceipts were 2.15l.O0O bushels againsI
2,st7, 900 bushels the previous year.
Reports from the seaboard that the
export engagements aggregated los
boat loads and the sale OF 100000 bush
els No. . spring wheat and No. hard
winter wheat here for Liverpool caused
very strong tone during the closing
hour. December opened 5s11isc higher

The order of removal, it is said,
is to apply to localities where the
interest of commerce demand the
same. In cases where it is safe,
an effort will be made to remove
the mines instead of exploding
them. Wherever there is any doubt
they will be exploded 1t will be
some days before the actual opera

mines can be put in operation and
the question as to whether the in
terests of commerce demand it will

Many military men were opposed
to yielding to the pressure of the
commercial interests and some of
them are predicting that not a few

mulated a stock of coal at st.
Thomas, West Indies. Most Of it
was ashore, but a thousand tons
were on a schooner lying in the
harbor. Twice since war broke
out the United States has availed
of this coal. once to supply the
Minneapolis and once the Mont
gomery, but as each was bound for
the nearest home port and took
only enough coal TO carry her
there it was fairly assumed there
had been no breach of neutrality
However, it appears that there is
now disposition exhibited by the
Danish authorities to prevent the
United States ships from using the
coal, and as there is no question
of their right to lay down such a
rule. the coal itself probably will
be let alone. Fortunately, there is
no particular need for it, as there
are other means of coaling a fleet
now in use. The incident is one
which will be used as strong argu-
ment for the establishment of coal

New York, July ia special
cablegram from ST. Thomas, D. w.
T., to the Journal, reports that the
Danish authorities have informed
United States Consul Van Horn
thaht coal, of which the United
States has 5000 tons in the harbor
of st. Thomas, is contraband Of
war, and that its removal by the
United States, so long as their gov
eminent is at war with Spain, will
not be permitted. Governor Lee
dermann informed the consul, ac-
cording to this dispatch. that any
attempt to remove the coal in
question would be resisted by the
German, French and Italian war;
ships in the harbor and waters
nearby. Consul Van Horn is said
t. have referred the subject to the
authorities at Washington.
