THE CROP MARKETS
Wheat Splits Figures-Corn,
Oats and Coffee Higher.

Bearish news was apparently discounted
in the whole wheat market yesterday,
and while there was no particular agrees
slveness on tho bull side, shorts seemed
inclined to cover. A Western authority
estimated the crop al 100000 bushels,
with an exportabe surplus OF 100000
bushels. An active consumptive and ex-
port demand IL indicated by the COM
paratively small increase in the visible
In view OF the big movement Of the crop.
The close Of trading was at a drop OF &c
for September and a gain OF sc for other
months. Corn was under the influence
OF condition and weather reports. and at
the close September was IA and other
months &alc higher. Export demand for
oats has slackened, but cash markets are
still steady. and old contracts are being
filed. The close OF trading was at lsgasc
advance over Tuesdays finish.
Foreign advices have caused wide diff
ferences in opinion In the coffee market
but trading yesterday was on steadier
basis. and the opening. which was at Q
to 10 points up, was met by increasing
offers around midday. which lost about
half the early gain. The close. however,
was az a net advance OF | to points.
Cost and freight offers were unchanged
10 lsc lower, and the Brazilian markets
reported slight drop in prices.
