WEATHER UNAVOIDABLE
Winter and Spring Wheat Conditions Are
AnaIvzed

Analysed.
WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 12.-The
weather bureaus weekly summary of
AS a whole the weather conditions
during the week ending April II were
not favorable for farming operations in
the principal agricultural districts east of
the Rocky mountains, being unseasonably
cold in the central valleys and Southern
states with too much moisture over the
Middle Gulf states and large part Of the
central valleys. More favorable condi-
lions prevailed in the Middle and South
Atlantic states and the Rocky mountain
region. Temperat lures below freezing oc-
CURED as far south the interior of the
South Atlantic states on the 4th and 9TH
with more or less DANA ging effects. In
the northern and central districts east Of
the Rocky mountains the season is from
one or two weeks later than usual The
season is also backward on the North
Pacific coast, but more favorable tenn
perature conditions prevailed during the
latter part of the week. Some corn has
been planted in Missouri and as far north
as central Kansas and large acreage of
fall plowed grain is ready for seeding in
Iowa.
1.-THE least favorable reports respecting
winter wheat are received from the Ohio
valley, the crop having sustained much
damage from OverhOwS in Indiana and
Illinois and portions Of Ohio and also in
Michigan. A considerable acreage in In
diana and Ohio will be plowed up for
other crops An improvement, however
is noted in portions of Ohio and Illinois
and the general outlook in Missouri Kan
sas and Nebraska is encouraging, al
though rain is needed in the western por-
ton of the wheat region in Nebraska
Over the southern portion of the Middle
Atlantic states the crop has experienced
general Improvement. On the North
Pacific coast the crop is in fine condition
and a fair crop is promised in California
except in the recently flooded sections and
in portions OF the southern counties.
Spring wheat seeding was in full
progress and we'll advanced over the
southern portion of the spring wheat re-
gion until interrupted by the severe rain
and snow storm of the 7th and Sth. which
will delay this work for several days"

MINNEAPOLIS.

neapolis-Wheat was weak and
lower and by IL o'clock May had sold
down to 9S1Ac. This was the old sticking
point and May was down to it for the
fourth time in a few weeks. The bulls
felt that If they could hold it again they
might force a rally. The bears felt that
if they could get it through they would
and tried hard. but there was good re-
sistance. Receipts, 81 cars. Near the
close the market having broken
through 931ac, turned very weak and fell
off quickly to 923sc for May, closing weak
at the low point. There was much selling
out on stop loss orders. number Of
later things helped the bears. 1t was
known by a few traders that the mills
will close later in the week as result of
discriminating rates and this was a help
to such of them as were on the bear side.
Following was the range of prices:

II has been the aim Of American manu-
facturers and the desire of our people to
increase the exports OF manufactures
Under the old Democratic regime manu-
factures constituted small item Of our
exports. Under Republican rule they
have steadily increased During the ten
years ending with 1850 they averaged
10 per cent. Of our total exports and
during the ten years ending with 1850
they averaged II per cent. of the
whole. During the last ten years Of
Democratic rule our exports Of manu-
factured products increased only one per
cent.
The Republican party came into power
in 1860, and during the ten years end
ing with 1870 our exports Of manufact-
ured products formed 16 per cent.
Of the total exports; during the ten years
ending with 1890 they averaged is
per cent. Of the total, and during the
ten years ending with 1900 they were
81 per cent Of the total. In the fiscal
year 1901 they were 2S per cent. Of the
total. and in 1902 they were 30 per cent.
Of the total.
The figures show conclusively that the
great system OF American manufactures
and our increased exports Of manufact-
ured products which contribute so largely
to the wealth and prosperity Of the coun-
try are due to Republican policies and
administrations.
