estimated.
st. Paul, Aug. 20. - The great ad-
vance in the price of wheat during
the past few days has aroused con-
siderable interest in railroad circles
and the general impression is that it
has been much greater than is justi-
fed by conditions in the wheat rails
ing districts. Officials are agreed that
considerable damage has been done
by rust in some parts of the country,
but it is not believed that the damage
has been as great as commonly re-
ported. One official said he thought
the sudden rise in the price of wheat
was due, to considerable extent, to
skillful manipulation of the market
and that the willingness of the public
to place entire confidence in the
stories of great damage by rust had
created demand for the wheat Of.
