GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

DETROIT, June 16.--Close-Demand
in Liverpool increased shortly after
the opening on Friday because OF bad
weather In Russia and Roumania.
Germany was bidding for cargoes and
Argentine exports were less than ex
pected. The weakness In the Amert-
can markets on Thursday was because
of better weather. South Dakota got
the rains that were needed and the
spring wheat outlook WAS greatly inn
proved
The weather has played another
mean trick the bulls, IL was too
dry for several days, enough TO get
them excited, and then rains and cool
er days spoiled the advance. This APP
pears TO be bad season for the crop
killer. AS soon as he gets nicely start
ed the weather turns favorable and the
crop come along nicely. The South Da-
kota rains have put the entire north
western crop on safe footing and eV-
erythlng looks promising FOR one OF
the biggest productions on record
Winter wheat has had plenty of mois-
ture and harvest is making good pro-
gress. Illinois Is selling wheat from
the new crop freely and great deal
OF grain will be in Chicago early in
July.
II is at best a scalping market. Any
dealer who fails 10 take a small prof
IL when he has the chance is sure 10
lose IL little later. There Is no chance
Is sure TO lose II a little later. There
IS no chance for the fellow who hangs
on for a big killing. but the bears in
sist that TIA ekilling Will be made
later on their side of the deal.
