112 West Third street, Los Angeles
CHICAGO. Sent 10.-Wheat turned sharply
with the government report, the reduction of
10 000 600 bushels in the estimated spring wheat
figures, while generally expected, serving as an
impetus to short covering. but the deeper rea-
son was the strength in corn and the pro-
fessional trader. relying upon sympathetic
movement, helped along the short covering.
Russian preliminary crop estimate was only
20 100000 bushels increase, against the trade
estimate Of 70 900 coo, which gave added bull
lsh feeling. The September bull crowd led
the advance Shorts have been largely crowd
ed out, and the market has again become top
heavy. There has been no immediate renectlon
OF foreign strength. and bids are further out
of range with higher prices. As much of the
wheat now coming from Russia is last ST.
beffan crop there is no prospect OF these snip
raents falling off materially, nor any prospect
OF purchases here The corn crop is com
ing forward, and there will be at most 20,-
600 600 more for export from that country,
making a total exportable surplus OF ooth
countries 65 900, 900 greater than last year
This exportable surplus will ultimately make
the price. The prospect is for a larger winter
wheat acreage than last year and TINS VIII
be another bearish factor. The wheat is a
sale on this advance.
The corn condition was more than generally
believed that the crop reduced $50, 600 600
bushels. being far less than last years final
estimate. Allowing for the usual increase In
the final estimate the outlook is for a crop
no larger than year ago, with SUPPLIES much
less. The advance in corn was justihed' and
last years prices will be again duplicated.
The oats crop is 150, 00O 900 larger and 1t will
help to hll the gap in corn. However, the
coarse grains must be considered Win me
hay crop, which Is estimated at 10000 900 tons
less than last year. Reducing all feed grains
and haw to a working weight level there Is
10 per cent less produced, and the supplies
are fully % per cent less. The wise course
to pursue is the purchase of both corn and
oats on all weak spots.

Dun's Review

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review Of trade toomrrow will say:
The price situation in leading departments
Of trade is proving a factor of overshadowlng
Importance and In some directions causes
marked conservatism in purchases, but the
demand to replenish stocks is expected soon
to start an unusually active buying movement
Industrially the outlook is as brilliant as
ever particularly in the fundamental iron and
steel trade
Hides and leather are gradually adjusted
to new conditions, but prices firmly main
tained.
Taking the country at large, there is a nota-
BILE freedom from Industrial disputes. The
satisfactory employment of labor must soon
add to retail purchases, which now expand
slowly.

Rradstreet,s Review

NEW YORK. Sept 1o.-Bradstreet's tomor-
rcw will say:
Operations in Industrial lines are still ex-
pendlng' and In some branches of the iron
and steel trade record outputs are the rule
In fact, manufacturing is in the forefront as
regards activity, and in some branches skilled
workmen are not plentiful enough.
Industrial plants that have been late in
sharing in the revival are taking on more
activity and working of night shifts is not
uncommon.
The earlier crops, such as wheat. cotton and
oats, are being move dto market quite freely
and the good prices being realized from the
sale Of these products will make for easier
growth in trade. Bidding is more active than
is usual at this season.
Business failures in the United States for
the week ended September were 191, against
1856 last week, 191 In 1908. 172 in 1907, 165 in
1906; 1SS In 1905.
Failures in Canada for the week were 25
against 80 last week and "a in the Same week
of 1908.
