that we hold the edge on them in

WHEAT IN SHARP
DROP DURING WEEK
Enormous Supplies in Can
ada and Export Outlook
Turn Values Downward.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, october 3.-Enormous
piling of supplies Of wheat in Canada
with no adequate prompt outlet IN
sight has had much to do with rapid
setback in wheat values this week.
and so has an unofficial report that
the 1925 yield Of wheat in the United
States is 100000 to 21,0OO,00O
bushels larger than the government
estimate last month. Compared with
a week ago wheat this morning was
712 to 83s bushel lower: corn, un-
changed to 1la higher; acts, Il to Is
up. and provisions, % to So down.
Prospects that the Canadian crop
movement, already of record-breaklnS
volume for this time of year, would
continue heavy for some time were
emphasized by announcement of 3,S45,-
600 bushels increase of the United
States visible supply, as against only
100000 bushels increase year ago.
There also was notice of 20,672 900
bushels increase of the worlds avail.
able supply. Meanwhile persistent talk
was heard that European demand
would be insufficient to dispose of even
ordinary Canadian exports before big
offerings of new wheat would be avail
able from Argentina and Australia.
On the other hand something of a
rally in wheat prices took place after
an all-around low price record for the
season had been reached and after
Secretary Jardine had sent a warning
to the Board of Trade here to take
immediate steps to adopt proposed re-
forms. Declines again ensued, how
ever. in connection with reports that
railroad embargo on further shipments
intended for Duluth elevators was
being considered. Conflicting advices
about Russian wheat trade were re
Sponsible for numerous fluctuations

Estimates that there had been a

tive strength TO the market value OF
