Shortages in Russia and In

BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, September 9.-Apparent-
ly the peak of the 1928 movement of
wheat from farms both in the United
States and Canada has been passed.
Reports current here indicate that Ca
madam country elevators are about

forwardings are below what the size of
the crops would imply and that Winter
wheat arrivals remain moderate.
Expectance that Russia may be an

ent being coupled with assertions that
the wheat crop of India is short, and
that European requirements other than
in Russia will perhaps be larger than
have heretofore been looked for. More
over, the critical period for wheat
growth is rapidly approaching in Argen-
tina and Australia as well. At the
same time. a sharp falling off in quality
of Canadian wheat arriving at Winni-
peg is being made much of.
However leading authorities here
point out that should Argentina and
Australia come through with good
wheat crops which now look promising
the world would doubtless see for a
little time at least an oversupply that
would make the problem of disposing
Of the various SURPRISES decidedly Sc
rious matter. In such situation. little
if any incentive for speculative buying
would exist, and it is added that the
United States still has liberal wheat
surplus to take care Of
A popular belief among corn traders
is that the movement of old corn after
October / will be unusually light. and
that a consequent enlarged demand for
new corn will result.

EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
 PRESS OF ALASKA

The second shipment of sil- ver-lead ore of the season from Mayo arrived in Seward re- gently, enroute to Bradley, Idaho. The shipment compris- ed ten carloads, the same amount as the first. The ore is shipped over this long route owing to the lower freight rate, which is estimated to be $3O per ton less than over the White Pass route.
 The mill of the Elmes Gold Mining Compayn, near Ester, in the Fairbanks district, was placed in operation recently for the first time this season. For several months work has been confined to extension of the tunnel, which is now in a distance of 920 feet. A big block of ore has been uncover ed, carrying good values.
