New York, Aug IA dispatch to the
Journal of Commerce from Paris says:
Nothing is yet known regarding the
wheat crop with any exactness which is
not already plain to ordinary experts. For
France even the first results of the thresh-
ings are not known. Taking France as
an example, it is certain that the years
crop is heavily deficient The only doubt
concerns the approximate amount of
wheat which will have to be imported to
supply the needs of national consumption.
The estimates range from 27,500,O0O to
GOOO0.OOO bushels.
