request of the authorities. to determine
whether there. was a pregnant con-
dition and the extent of 1T. The wit

tanned in the report and when asked
what he considered was the cause of
death he answered that there was an
organized obstruction in the right

Grain Opinions.

Bartlett Patten & Co.: we advise
the purchase of September wheat
We caution against selling corn on
soft spots but do not see any reason
yet for sustained advance. 1t Is
thought the movement Of hogs will
soon be curtailed owing to recent big
declines.
Shearson, Hammill & Co.: While
the action Of the market is heavy and
we feel bearish on the ultimate out
come as regards dollar wheat, yet we
do not feel like selling 1t at the mo-
ment ON this break.
No one seems to want the cash corn
and the premiums for the deferred
futures make 1t rather an expensive
proposition to the buyer OF them.
s. B. Chaplin &c Co.: We think the
wheat situation is still bearish on
wheat and corn.
Finley, Darrell G. Co.: Sell wheat
on all natural reactions. We can see
nothing in the situation, general sur
roundings Of the corn market to war

The decline in wheat has been severe.
Liquidation has been on an enormous
scale. The short side has been popular
and many reasons can now be seen by
those bearishly inclined for a con-
tinued and continuous decline which
did not present themselves to the same
minds weeks ago when prices were
10 cents higher. The real season for
crop scares is at hand and with what
shortage we believe will accrue from
winter killing the possibility exists for
further shortage from other causes. An |
advance may come slowly but 1t Is |
our firm belief that September wheat
should be bought now.
