buyer of American specialties, and COM
mission houses have also been much
more active, indicating that public in
terest in the market is steadily increas-
ing.
Activity characterized the weeks spec
ulative business in grain, and the volume
of dealings in provisions was quite up to
the average. Prices did not vary much
from those prevailing at the close of the
previous week. Estimates of the amount
of wheat raised this year displayed a
tendency to agree upon n crop of about
525, 100000 bushels. Almost equal con
currence in the requirements of the i'm
porting countries was shown in the esti-
mates of foreign statisticians, which did
not vary much from 345 ,Co0,000 bushels.
OF that total they calculate 220,000,U0
bushels will be needed from this c6un-
try, or a weekly supply throughout the
season of about 4, 150,000 bushels. Al
lowing for the surplus left over from the
previous seasons most abundant crop.
the indications are there is less Wheat
this year than last year by at least 100
100000 bushels to supply equal require
ments. If these calculations prove APP
proximately correct prices sh6"ld rule
higher this year than last.
The corn crop still gladdens the hearts
of its .cultivators by its splendid promise,
and two weeks more Of favorable wealth
or should put the bulk Of it beyond
harms reach. The deficiencies of last
seasons corn crop are beginning to be
demonstrated to the discontinue of a
party in the market that sold for deliy-
cry at an earlier date than new crop sup
plies can be available.

BUSINESS SITUATION.
Chicago Correspondence:

chicago correspondence:
The underlying features of the bust
ness situation are still of q promising
character. The few changes that have
taken place lately have been for the bet
ter, and the result of this is that the
feeling of confidence in the future is
gaining strength. There is no longer any
apprehension felt in regard to the money
market, borrowers ana lenders alike be-
ing now pretty well satisfied that moth
ing approaching a tight market can be
brought about. The West seems album
dainty supplied with funds and appar
emily able to provide for the moving of
the crops this fall without any great
amount of assistance from the Eastern
financial centers. Furthermore, the pres
ent condition of the foreign exchange
markets makes it certain that any impor-
tant advance in interest rates in this
country would at once start a gold-im-
porting movement of considerable pro-
portions.
The stock markets this week have con-
tinued to gain strength. Efforts on the
part of the professional beau element to
depress prices for the standard railroad
shares have been defeated simply be-
cause of the fact that the actual busi-
ness position of the country is hostile to
speculative stocks s~hake-outs have oc-
Cured, but the investment properties
have not only stood their ground, but
many of them have made further ad-
vances. London has been quite a heavy
