Speculation in Wheat
RESPONSIBLE For Failure

Observation-Disclosures in wheat is
said to have been in part at least re-
sponsible for the troubles Of the
Pillsbury Company at Minneapolis,
and in part also a heavy decline in
the sale of American -four abroad.
Members of the company have
been prominently identified with
mammoth wheat deals in the Mime
apolis and Chicago markets for years.
Four years ago, when black rust Sc
riously damaged the spring wheat
crop, the Pillsbury syndicate was
caught largely short and lost nearly
100000. Two years ago the same
syndicate was ~whipsawed, being long
on a declining market, and last year
it guessed the market wrong again.
This summer when crop conditions
in the Northwest were brilliant, the
tPillsburys sold September short
against their holdings Of old spring
wheat, but the sensational reports
concerning damage by rust and blight
caused the market to rise suddenly.
