Wheat-For the first time in a very
considerable period, the wheat mar
ket has been stirred to abnormal tiuc-
tuations by events which exercise a
speculative influence upon values. The
declaration of war by Austria-Hungary
on Servia served as the provocation
to a sensational advance of &C in the
Chicago wheat pit Tuesday, while To-
cal export quotations were Influenced
to the extent of &c per bushel, sending
bluestem to S5c, with forty-fold SIC;
club, sic, and red Fife soc. Naturally
the after effects of such a development
are problematical. That the rise was
based upon the possibilities entailed
of the embodiment of Russia and 9TH
er nations in the complications is evil
dent, for the two countries directly
involved would not give the situation
serious aspect, and should the out
break be confined to them it is not
improbable that there will be CORE
spending recessions, while, on the
other hand, a general war might serve
to still further enhance values.
There is very little doing in the
wheat market to date, though rather
better arrivals are coming to hand
the current week, including a consid
cradle proportion of new wheat. UI
to Saturday night local receipts fol
the month had aggregated but LAT
cars as compared with 1875 cars for Sc
attic and 295 cars for Portland. The
mills are buying in moderate way fol
future delivery, and small export
business is passing, although the gen
eral tendency among buyers is tC
await the results of the harvest, while
growers are concentrating their ener
gies in securing the crop, the harvest
making favorable progress, but de
handing attention for another month
Flour-The flour situation is still
holding comparatively quiet. Stock:
on the other side are heavy, and finan
cial conditions adverse to the entering
into heavy engagements for future de
livery. Prices are rather unsettled
but new crop basis is rather lower
near to the $40 mark for clul
straights. Patents are still holding
unchanged.
Feed-The feed market is quiet, bu
will gradually pick up as the season
advances, and feeding becomes neces
sary. The market generally is un
changed. There has been a 50 ad
vance in corn, however, while oats are
ruling relatively easy.
