became the general impression that
there had been too much unanimity on
the bear side. and that the mnrket
was oversold. Therefore. il was felt
that many shorts would endeavor to
cover as soon as the report was made
public. regardless of its tenor, partic-
ularly If II was not as highly taNor-
able as anticipated. Few complaints
were heard as to deterioration, and
hence it was believed that the aban-
doned acreage would be about MS small
as In any year OH record. or about the
same as in tho record year of 1908.
when the abandonment amounted to
only 100000 acres. or 2.S per cent OF
THE area seeded.
Crop Estimates.
In that year n record breaking crop
was anticipated I'm May. when the con-
dition was placed al 92.6. but neverthe-
less the crop at harvest was only 399,-
S67, 900 bushels Unfortunately there
was much deterioration In May and
June and the condition fell TO ISIS on
July l. When the official report was
given ont Ii showed the area ADAM
doned to be l,449,000 acres. or over
100000 acres more than generally eX-
pec;ed. This was. however, partly
counterpalanced by the high condition
given. 9i.9. against 9l.6 n month ago.
whereas some slight decrease had been
expected. Notwithstanding this the De-
partment OF Agriculture estimated the
crop at 5l3.5Ii .ooO bushels, whereas
nearly all bear traders had been pre-
dieting a crop OF $40. 100000 TO $40. 0O0.-
GEO bushels Indeed. some ovcr-san-
Euine dealers had predicted AS high
as 575. 5000 bushels
While the outlook was highly salts
factory to merchants, 1t was slightly
ID disappointing to spectators. who had
sold too freely. Buying was stimu-
lated partly by rather disappointing
advices from the Northwest. where. it
was feared. the area may be cut down
about 100000 acres, because the wet
and unsensonably cold weather in H.
northern counties had prevented
plouRhing and seeding Steadiness NAs
caused partly by reports of further
fairly large export buying, especially
for forward shipment from Duluth. Re-
ceipts at primary points have been
about normal. but the shipments into
consumptive channels have continued
large. In addition to the large arrivals
AT Buffalo several cargocs OF wheat
from Duluth have gone TO millers at
other Lake ports. such as Toledo and
Detroit.
FIuctuntion In Corn.
There was a slight decline i'm corn

with wheat. and partly owing to ia
vorable weather West Subseauentlv
there was greater firmnesS as shorts
became anxious TO cover. prompted by
continued disappointing receipts at pri-
mary points In other words. farm
ers have been making light deliveries
to country stations. Doubtless they
have been exceedingly busy ploughing
and seeding. In cash markets there
has been a decidedly stronger feeling
as offerings were limited which has
restricted business.

New York. May ll.--TTices in do
mestic wheat markets again followed
{, downward course early in the week.
There was much OF the time a scarcity
of buying orders while sellers We're
numerous. Rapid growth OF bearish
sentiment developed, practically every
trader favoring the bear side. This
was not surprising in view of the eN-
cellent weather West. especially in the
Southwest. where there was copious
rainfall. In some places where mois-
ture was badly needed. rain fell for
nearly two days. measuring close to
four inches in many sections. This
did good. especially as the rain was
expected TO put an end TO damage by
chinch bugs. which had increased.

II Was felt that the monthly report

ports were compiled before the rain
arrived. II was generally predicted
that the condition would be placed at
80 or over, and the abandoned area
ut less than 100000 acres. This would
he about equal TO the best on record.
TIE downward tendency was checked
temporarly b. encouraging cables

The buoyancy there was also partly
caused by unfavorable reports from
Russia. where the spring crop had been
injured by frost. In addition. there
was n huge decrease in the European
visible supply. $500. 600 bushels. against
an increase year ago of 100000
bushels. AS our visible supply de
creased sharply, the worlds visible

Chicago, May 1.-THE bears in
wheat contradict the reports received
OF the need OF rain in many sections
OF winter wheat belt. and OF the prob
able losses in case the balance Of this
month should prove dry. Those who
have studied Reid conditions most
thoroughly say that the rapid advance
OF the wheat plant is drawing the
moisture out of the soil, and that the
plant Will need rain very soon. or de-
terioration is most likely to set in.
Those who are watching crop conel-
tons closest are not 10 be found on

The bears in wheat WHO have been

occasions. scout the idea that there
is any possibility Of the wheat cron
