NOON GRAIN LETTER.
The arrival of Joffre in Chicago to-
day is attended with peace talk of
every description. The May govern
ment report should presumably raise
the wheat condition to around so, on
an acreage of 30,0O0.00O to $1,000, 900.
This will compare with a 10-year av-
erage of about SO. The April report
was 63.4.

resulted today from the introduction
Of A government bill at Washington to

United States would cooperate in rul-

North American continent. In ten

Many eonvulsive changes ensued and
half an hour after the opening the mar

fall in value but trading in May was
confined to very limited dealings. July,
in which the great rush Of transactions
took place, suffered an extreme drop
