DOLLAR WHEAT
Sensational Advance The Feat
ure Of the Week
SHORT CROPS CAUSE
Iron and Steel Markets are
Doll.

New York, June 23.-R. G. Dun u
Co.'s weekly review of trade says;
The damage to the wheat crop of the
northwest is the event of chief impor-
lance. How expensive the loss may
prove in view of widely conflicting ac-
counts can only be judged from the spec
ulasive market, in which information
gathered at the west has caused a re-
markablc advance at Chicago 10 cents in
ten days, and the price here has advanced
3 cents per bushel though for the Sep
tember option only s ccnts. The belief
Is that SO large Il part of the spring wheat
has been killed as to reduce yield ex-
pected to be close to the largest on record
to considerably less than the world has
required during the crop year now end
ing.
Until the past three years it would
have been reasoned that any material ad-
vance in price would neutraliZe the for
eigu conditions which had caused exports
Of about $50 0O0O,000 bushels wheat, flour
included, in the closing year, after 3D.
100000 bushels in the previous year and
217 600, 900 bushels in the year 1898, be-
sides exports of 2l3,OOO,OOO bushels corn
in the closing year against l77,OOO,0OO
