With the two leaders, Austin and
Breckenridge. pitted against weak
er teams, little material change is
expected in the District Eight
standings this week.
Austin, the only u~ndefeated, I'M
tied eleven IN the circuit, will play
the part Of host to Alamo Heights.
Austin Is expected to be an ungra-
cious host in that they will give
the Mules a good trimming.
Breckenridge. the only other team
10 avoid defeat, will tie into Har-
landale at Gan Antonio. Bracken-
ridge will be the favorite.
Robstown and Main Avenue has
the appearance of a good game.
This tilt will be played st San An
tonic. Robstown began the season
with excellent material and great
prospects. but this has dwindled
away. Week before last. Main
Avenue wrecked the hopes Of an
other south Texas entry by sinking
Corpus Christi. The Buc fans had
worked themselves into a ga-ga con-
dition over the prospects for a dis
trict championship. However Main
Avenue messed up their hand-pick-
ed schedule and will likely do the
same to Robstown.

Friday in the annual Indiana bas-

EXPORTS WATCHED
IN WHEAT TRADE
Weather in U. S. and Canada
Also Held Potent Price,
Making Factor.
BY the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, July SEEDING author
tiles here say that during the next few
weeks the most prominent price making
factors regarding wheat will broadly be
just two in number. The first of the
two outstanding factors mentioned is
the weather in the Spring crop States
of this country and in the prairie prov
inces of Canada. Almost equally sig
nificant are to be developments in the
wheat export trade from North America
NervouSly awaiting disclosures along
such lines, the wheat market shows l "a
pa cents bushel lower prices prevail
ing compared with a week ago. Mean
while corn is % cent off to IA cent up,
oats at y cent decline to "a cent adj
vance, and provisions varying from 81
cents setback to rise of so cents.
Canada Development Watched.
Although transatlantic crop conditions
may stimulate Europe to more active
absorption of wheat from North Amer
lea, many traders lean to the view that
the real test as to prices will be in the
July and early August crop develop
mentS in Canada and the domestic
Northwest. According to current state
ments from conspicuous Chicago trade
experts, July with its usual high tenn
peratures will cause great anxiety in the
Spring wheat belt both south and north
of the Canadian boundary, unless there
are frequent rains. 1t is pointed out
that last year the big deterioration of
the Canadian crop did not begin to
show until after this date, and that the
moisture situation now appears to be
but little better, if as good, as then,
present reports still suggesting deficient
moisture reserves over wide areas.
Complicated Export Situation.
Notwithstanding that European sup
plies of wheat on hand, together with
the stocks af1oat are reported as light,
and that apparently Europe'S 1880 crop
will be no more than average, the big
surplus carried over from last year in
North America makes a complicated eX-
port situation. Furthermore, the mar
keting movement of newly harvested
domestic Winter wheat up to date is
figured here as being of at least normal
volume taken as whole, despite de-
cided disposition which in numerous
quarters has been shown to hold wheat
back for higher prices. The holding
tendency is attributed not only to Fed
eral Farm Board encouragement, but
also to opinions of many farmers that
they have little to lose by holding on to
wheat, which in at least some cases
would not yield the growers just now
even 60 cents buShel.
Corn and oats prices are Steadied by
decreasing stocks Of corn and by small
ness of corn receipts. Besides, corn
crop developments this month are extra
important and have yet given no DELI
mite clue as to results.
