Fans are prone to make serious
mistake in discussing the causes that
cOnspired TO e loss OF a game. Nearly
always they take only the home team
into consideration. Some misplay or
failure TO take advantage Of chance
al some time during the contest IS
sought out and held up as the source
Of all the woe The other fellows are
not taken into consideration. That
shows a narrow spirit. The opposing
players are working just as hard for
the victory as the home aggregation
and perhaps a little harder. II isn't
fair TO your own team TO consider the

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce
March 27.-The news today, with one ex-
ception, was bearish, large worlds ship
ments, lower Liverpool markets. liberal
receipts here, cash demand slow here and
at all other primary points and perfect
weather conditions. The one bull card
was a fair decrease in the visible supply.
Under the stimulus of lower cables and
heavy worlds shipments the bears started
in TO hammer the market on the curb
and managed to open the market down
&c for both options. Some short cover
ing at the decline, with little commits
sion house buying, caused a fair reac-
tion of sc. but the advance was met
with very free selling OF both long and
short wheat, principally the latter. The
market broke sharply over a cent before
there was enough buying to check the de-
cline.
ing against puts and a little covering
which carried prices up to within a frac-
tion of the opening figure. the market be-
coming very dull after this last rally
for the rest of the session. The principal
pit feature was the selling of July wheat
which at one time was ar 4Ac discount
under the May option. Elevators were
the best sellers of this option, although
the pit crowd was more inclined to sell
July than any other option. At 4hc dis
count quite a little wheat changed hands
among the elevator interests, buying the
July and selling the May, considerable
of 1t being spreads which were being
closed out. The crowd is still very bear
ish, but not inclined to press the selling
of short wheat on this break, preferring
to wait for fair rally before putting out
another line. The close was just steady
at a cent under Saturdays closing for
May and 1Lc under for July.
Receipts were again liberal, the cash
demand being rather slow on the whole.
No. ! northern sold well at around &c
over May, with No. northern selling
at 2@3c under, the rest of the wheat Of

SPECULATIVE GOSSIP

Edwards Wood Co.-Offerings of corn
were rather heavy at times in sympathy
with the larger receipts. but prices held
well at only a fraction under Saturday.
The domestic visible supply decreased 10S,-
600 bu, against an increase OF 539. 900 a
year ago. This. following some falling Off
I'm exports and increase in receipts, shows
that one of the most important bull fac
tors in the market is our enormous home
consumption of corn. The west is re-
ported as ohering very little corn: the
weather is wet and on dry days there will
be farm work to attend to. Think ii only
question of time when all months Will be
in good demand around soc again. and
would favor making trades with such u
course of the market in view.
Chicago return still bearish on all
wheat but May. There will be sharp
sibly that option and September may be
low enough for the moment, but even that
is doubtful. and 1 would still prefer
waiting for bulges to sell on than to
buy for anything but scalps- Bulges in
July wheat we will get. When we do get
them and September sympathiZes. as IL
without hesitation or fear for a long pull
and sell the July with stop orders.
St Louis-To give you some idea of
the cash wheat situation one of our
largest cash handlers sent out offers to
53l mills Saturday night offering cash
wheat at lowest prices since last August
and did not get a single order.
Chicago-Market opened lower on gen.
eral local selling. No special feature and
trade very light Firmed up on buying
by disappointed shorts who had sold at
the opening expecting a shower of COM
mission house selling orders.
Omaha wires: Prof Bruner of the state
university. who is receiving reports from
all sections Of Nebraska. says personal
examination reveals fly in flaxseed and
fields. and states there is live larvae, but
can tell more definitely in the course OF
two or three weeks. Nebraska Elevator
company says their stations in southern
Nebraska and northern Kansas all report
same condition as Prof. Bruner reports.
While wheat looks well. they all have well
defined indications Of the presence of fly
which will develop more definitely as the
weather warns UP.
Chicago-As some questions are being
asked relative TO the Argentine crop, II
may be well TO state that corn is planted
In September and October In some sec
tions, occasionally as early as August
and sometimes planted as late as Janu
airy. 1t is generally ready for harvesting
the last half of March and the corn ship
ping months are May. June and July, gen.
orally commencing the latter half OF May.
The entire acreage in 1903 Of corn was
4.450.00C about equivalent 10 the size
OF the corn acreage of Indiana.
