Earlier in the day new purchases OF
wheat to come here from Kansas CITY
tended somewhat to allay apprehension
al to possible difficulties in settling
May accounts and the market also was
eased temporarily by tina selling, OF
some wheat into store here. Transient
declines were also facilitated by cur
rent advices of good rains in the pa

failed to prove as Significant as nao
been supposed.
A good deal Of notice was taken or
an estimate from a leading crop ex-
pert that 240,000.000 bushels Is LID
eral allowance for the probable yield
of spring wheat in the United States
this season as against 271, 100000
bushels in 1925. This estimate gave
special emphasis to reports from other
sources that an average crop in large
| sections of North and South Dakota
this season appears impossible. On
the other hand, the Liverpool wheat
market today showed relative weak
ness, and with improved weather
throughout Europe export business
was confined to 100000 bushels OF
wheat and 100000 bushels Of rye.
