only explanation for the savage selling Of

likely 7uneasiness lest the bond issue be not

Bearish Crop News From
Kansas.

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce, May 10.
Fine weather, and slight increase In re-
ceipts, were against the price of wheat this
morning. The map showed weather condi-
tions very favorable except for the Rel River
valley section, but the flrmness originating
from this latter item, was Offset by the in
creased movement. St. Louis had nearly
l0O00 bushels, which was looked upon as
large by comparison with the late continued
light runs. In the northwest there were 2oS
cars, against 316 last year Not scrap OF
foreign news was to be found, both Liverpool
and Paris being closed for the Whitsunlide
holiday The southwest, especially Kansas
sent bearish crop news. Trade was extreme
ly light everywhere. Some help came from
the clearances which were $4,000 bushels
Worlds shipments fer the week were $4,000
bushels against 1874 coo last week and 1905
900 a year ago. America shipped S,172,oOo
bushels; Russia 2,472, 000; the Danube 944,oeo
and Argentine GA 0OG bushels. India shipped
1872, 900 bushels and Australia none. The guam
tity on passage ut 47,s72, 900 bushels shows
decrease Of 656, 900 bushels. The visible change
was all to the bulls, showing decrease OF
1928 900 bushels where about 5000, 600 bushels
decrease was expected. This, however, brings
the present total down 33,571,NO bnshels.
which is almost 100000 bushels under last
year at this time
At primary points receipts totaled 4Q6,eoo
bushels against 100000 last year, and ship
ments were 1926, O00 against 642,G Mime
