TALK OF DOII.R WHEAT

The st. Louis Republic informs us
that the heavy traders on the Mer-
chants Exchange OF that city predict
h2t wheat will sell for 81 a bushel
Re the fall season is over and are
barently laying lines to bring about
= realization of their prophecy. The
Republic says
One of the most conservative and uni
formly successful exporters on the local
exchange openely proclaimed his belief
that wheat for December delivery would
sell for S-0Q in the st. Louis market He
Is man who could not be suspected of
endeavoring to influence the market by
making unsupported assertions His state
ments were not scattered broadcast but
were made only to those who are known
to be as heavily interested in the markets
as he is. All of the big exporters accept
ed his estimate as conclusive. This trader,
whose name is almost as well known as
that of Corn King Phillips, said:
Il have not the slightest doubt that
wheat will sell for s1.00 a bushel on the
present crop. The output. as shown by
The Government crop report, issued Satur-
day. will be much smaller than has been
expected. The supply will not equal the
demand, even for domestic consumption
The conditions in the European wheat
growing countries have been no better
than in the United States. In some in.
stances they have been much worse
''When the amount OF grain needed for
seeding shall have been taken out of the
total crop. it will be found that there is
considerable shortage. No manipulation
will be necessary to send prices upward.
Natural conditions Will be of such char
acter that the market will not stop short
of S1.00 a bushel.'
While it is not asserted that there Is a
clique or a pool on the local exchange to
have watched the recent course of the big
traders are convinced that they are act
ing with unanimity. and that they all
have the same opinion as to the ultimate
course of the December option.
At present they are not trading heavily
In ST. Louis. They prefer to stand back
and give the small spectators a chance
to realize on the deals they have made
since the issuance of the Government re-
port.
Those who are the best posted believe
that when all the outsiders have crawied
from under the bull crowd will rush in
and assume control of the market.

WHERE THE FAULT REALLY LIES.

The periodic ante-election disclosure"
of Tammany corruption and collision
with vice is creating the usual sensa-
ton in New York. 1t is a sensation
which the metropolis would probably
be unable to get along without, so
strong has the habit become. Regu-
larly on the eve OF every campaign
Father Knickerbocker, regardless of
party, gets after the Tammany tiger
and chases that animal up hill and
down dale and into the investigation"
court And everything charged against
Tammany is regularly proven-corrup
ton, bribe-taking, protection of and col
fusion with gamblers and all other
forms of yice-everything charged in
the indictment is fastened on to Tam
many.
Then, at the next election, Tammany
wins out as usual. The voters, after
the ballots are counted, are found on
the side Of Tammany in New York, just
as the voters in Philadelphia are found
on the side of the still more rotten
Quay machine in that city and in the
State of Pennsylvania.
And after the investigation and Eek
posure" the pool rooms. the gambling
hells and every other form of vice IS
found doing the same old business at
the same old stand.
Why is this so? Why is there no
real reform? An observant contempt
rary answers that committee of Fiji
teen must be backed up by an active
public sentiment. Until that is secured,
raids will have no effect. Disclosures
will do little good. The entire popula-
ton of New York needs regenerating.
They get just as good government as
they deserve, and want When the peo-
pie who live on Staten Island learn to
believe in suppressing gambling-rooms
and disorderly houses, the police will
stop using the letter of the law as a
club for blackmail'
All of which is more truthful thar
complimentary of Father Knicker-
booker. And the shoe fits several other
centres, Republican and
Democratic, which are ever kicking on
the evils of their local governmental while
regularly endorsing those evils at the |
polls
