Wheat.-The stock of wheat at WIS.,
ible supply points in the United States
decreased 100000 bushels during the
past week, bringing the total to only
1,566,O00, compared with 30,179,000 a
year ago. The new harvest is so near
at hand, however, that the trade is not
particularly concerned over the small
vi-ible, especially as the distribution
of wheat this year has been on a diff
ferent basis than formerly and much
wheat has gone direct to the mills and
at the principal terminals. Advices
from Oklahoma said that harvesting
operations would begin there within
ten days. Weather conditions have
been especially favorable for the new
crop and in most sections there has
been sufficient rain to assure an abun-
dance of moisture to bring the crop to
maturity with maximum yield.
Weather conditions were cool in the
upon as detrimental to spring wheat
growth, as it has not advanced far
enough to be injured by frost.
Corn.-The corn market showed de-
cided firmness throughout the day and
at the close the July position was "a c
net higher. The advance was due large
ly TO covering in market which was
technically strong and it was evident
that traders recently had been over
enthusiastic on the bear side. With
the exception of the cool weather in
the Northwest, climatic conditions
were favorable for the crop. Compare
lively few complaints have been re-
ceived in regard to termination in
view of the many reports of an un-
favorable nature which have been cir
culated in regard to the condition Of
seed corn. The visible supply in the
United States decreased 306, 900 bushels
for the week, bringing the total to
15,11S,000 bushels, compared with g.
$4,000 last year.

Oats.-Further fears of congestion
in the May position gave the oats mar

there was good demand from shorts
Offers were comparatively small and

The strength in Winnipeg and cold
weather in the Northwest had stim-
ulating influence on values and West

ern cash situation was still heavy and
there was little evidence of export de-
mand. The visible supply decreased

from several sources that ground
glass had been found in the candy
output OF two firms supplying the
sailors led Secretary of the Navy
Daniels today to shut off temper
arily candy supplies and to start
an investigation.
Vague reports as to one firm
reached the navy first, followed
by other reports as to a second
firm.
Paymaster General MCGOWAN
thought 1t advisable to stop tenn
porarily the supply from all candy
firms, while Capt. Wells of the in
telligence bureau makes an inves-
'tigation.
Thus far the probe has not es-
tablished anything alarming.
AS the navy consumes a large
amount Of candy. the ban proba-
bly, will be lifted as soon as steps
to insure purity are taken.
