WAGNER'S REVIEW
Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago. May 16.-Liverpool corn
ar wheat come about fairly firm and
give the three grains a chance to hold
over the week end against the Monday
statistics. According to various re-
ports the wheat visible may de-
crease 5000. 900 on Monday to around
35.OOO.OOO VS.. 42.SOO,O0O last year
These statistics tend to support wheat
but on other hand the pit received lib
eral sales of wheat on Friday and
there is a tendency in brokerage house
sentiment not to expect any cumula-
tive advance in the new crop months
right away Fly damage appears to
be limited to Missouri and southern Il
linois. The Illinois state crop report
contains old news as to the wheat con-
dition of May 1. The Illinois state re-
port on corn claims 44,C00, 900 old corn
left May /. This IS a very small
amount. The government gave the
March l reserves of corn as 101.0O0,-
900. The Illinois state guess of H.
5000 old wheat left in farmers hands
May l does not gibe altogether with
the government guess of 100000 on
March l. The Illinois state reserves
OF wheat and corn indicates an exhaust
of both grains. Leading local bears
refuse to change their wheat position
but believe wheat May develop bulges
for another short period due to the
leadership of May wheat On the week
ly movement of corn the corn visible
may decrease near 1000, 900 to around
). 100000 versus 100000 one year
ago on May II. Corn visible is very
small and cash corn brings fancy
prices. Setback of cent in any of
the grains will evidently be very lib
eral and break buying is liable to in
crease. There is some local talk in
shape of a warning watch for an in
crease run of corn and setback but
this talk seems prematGre-at least
for few days.

Stock had rather a tired appearance
at yesterdays close; tn, men who had
bid them up seemed willing to see lib
eral setback or differently put per-
haps they found they were getting too
much long stock. London did not fol-
low our lead today; prices were lower
all around. Prices may b. carried
higher, there is nothing particularly
bad in sight. Mexican outlook better;
crop news good; but the trade advicei
disappointing. Sentiment is buoyed up
by expectation of advanced rates. This
is really at the bottom of the cheeful-
ness. Any indication that rates are
not to be advanced would change SEN
timent and cause sharp setback in
stocks.
