NEW YORK, June 3.--Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: The general business situation might well be expressed by the single word "crops ''
 Certainly the very fiattering outlook reported in nearly all the grain-growing sections of the country, and particularly regards the grow ing wheat, has been of a nature to dominate the entire trade situation. From all of the surplus wheat-growing States there comes but one report, that of a large acreage, extremely good weather and crop conditions already fore shadowing an unprecedented production of the king of cereals. With the steady and favor able progress making toward a large wheat
 yield has come the final elimination of the May wheat deal and a considerable queting down of speculative fever and prices. The close of the week witnesses an immense shrinkage in the price paid for cash wheat as compared with short time ago, partly the result, of

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, June 3.-Strength in Wheat was due to an opening advance of from 2d to 2%d at Liverpool. The upward tendency was sus- tained by reports from Kansas City of con- siderable damage to the Kansas Wheat crop by bugs, rust and rank growth. Cash Wheat everywhere was scarce, and the bulk of it ap- peared to be under Letters control This, to- gether with the fact that Letter sold l, 400 900 bushels of cash Wheat to British millers yes- terday created 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 blly- ing by St. Louis shorts. July closed with A gain of 2@25c and September 1h61%c
 Notwithstanding the strength of Wheat Corn was heavy on good crop prospects, large re- ceipts and general cessation of foreign de- mand. July is M0Ac lower.
 The speculative trade in Oats was light clos- ing unchanged.
 After an hour of fairly active trading Pro- visions became dull. Cudahy bought lard freely Pork * and lard quit 7lkc higher. July
