STRING UNOERTONE
IN WHEAT MARKET
ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS FROM AR
GENTINA PORTS CONTINUE
TO FALL OFF.

Commenting on the wheat situation
the West Coast Trade this week says:
There is a continuation of the
stronger undertone to the wheat mar
ket. and a further gain of 1c per bush
el is made in export quotations, based
upon the sustained strength charac-
teriStic OF the reflex action recently
inaugurated in importing markets.
Recently there has been a falling
off in the enormous exports from Ar
gentina, which was one of the main
factors in the apparent weakness of
the general situation. and with the
elimination of this factor a larger
amount of attention is being accorded
to the shortage of supplies elsewhere.
Russia and the Danubian ports have
likewise decreased their out shipments
while India. which a year ago was con-
tcibuting considerable quota, has be
come practically a minus quantity.
1T is not thought that the develop
ments in Argentina indicate that avail
able wheat has been largely moved. la
Dor troubles and financial difficulties
interfering largely with operations
there, but. the really strong statistical
position has asserted itself in conse-
quence, despite the fact that there has
been comparative absence of alarm
ing developments regarding the crop
situation. which usually obtain promi-
nence about this season.
The developments have contributed
considerably to terminating North Pa
cliic markets, and there has been con-
siderable activity extant. both at tide
water and the interior during the past
two weeks with some good sales re-
ported at full figures
