of 297s cents pound. This is an in
crease of "a cent a pound above the
level that ruled late last week. Ex-
port contracts have been closed within
the last few days, involving large
total. These orders are said to have
ranged between 100000 and 100000

Cereals

Wheat. The downward tendency in
values was In progress again yester-
day, and at the close of the day CON
tract prices in Chicago were ] TO Il
cents lower, while cash wheat ranged
from unchanged TO 10 cents lower
in the different markets. The visi-
BILE supply of wheat in the United
States showed a loss for the week
of 1896, 900 bushels, but there was
n general absence OF new buying,
while wheat continues to come out
from the country IN somewhat larger
volume. Exporters were again out
of the market and apparently are bust
" engaged in moving the wheat they
had previously bought from the United
States and Canada. The large Cana
dian stocks are being moved over the
lakes for export.
More wheat is moving from Aus
tralia and India, and the losses IN
navigation as result of submarine at
tacks appear to be falling off. Domes-
tic mills, it is reported, are not buying
and the -four trade has become dull
after the frenzied buying movement
which occurred month ago.
The new crop outlook continues to
improve. The winter wheat belt has
been visited by splendid rains during
Nav. which should carry the wheat to
harvest in many sections. The spring
wheat crop went into the ground under
almost ideal conditions, and the anX'
iety expressed in regard to the ger
minating qualities of the seed has been
eliminated. as the plant is coming up
nicely in practically every section.
