One week ago Saturday December wheat sold ‘at $168, with May at $1 70, and the following Wednesday the price had ad- vanced to $187% and $189, an . appre- ciation of $4 per ton. The cause for this advance was a sharp rise in Con- tinental and United Kingdom mar- kets. The very high prices reached in this market show plainly that an oversold condition' existed, which has given the market a very weak undertone during | the Jatter part of the week, the price of December © dropping from $187% on of 16% cents from the top. treme -low prices " reached by wheat ed ‘the speculator to regard $150 as be- | ing top prices for that commodity, re- | sulting in a general shorting of the market. - This pressure was not strong: enough to. cope with the influence of | markets. The ‘more short selling the higher - went prices, until a general scare overtook the market, which re-| in heavy losses to the persis- | tent seller. As soon as this congested condition | was expelled from the market prices | began to drop of their own weight, giving the market to the casual ob- i while it is admitted prices were forced Yet it may be justly said | With present conditions $1 75 per cental does not seem too high for California | grown wheat. . Millers’ demands will far exceed supplies, and this will af-| ford home producers the added differ- ence in freights, which means $250 per ton, -redueing the actual export value | to $162%. This price is much below a Liverpool . basis, using a 30 shilling | oeean rate. The wheat crop of Oregon ! and ‘Washington is not yet harvested,; and will have to result in a full crop, as that condition has been fully dis- | counted by the trade. which will ‘mostly control American | be the situation abroad, regardless of the fact that the crops abroad are most | promising. The demand for American | wheat” will be large. English and | French stocks have never been so near- | ly exhausted as at present. This is in the face of America’s statistics of two | hundred and ten million bushels since | July 1, 1897, compared with one hun- | dred and forty-five million bushels for that the United States and Canada | have exported fifty-five million bushels more wheat during the past ten months: than the twelve months pre- vious. 2 Leiter, who controls the ' Eastern | wheat situation, says he finds a ready | foreign market for his wheat, notwith- standing spot wheat is selling at 120 per bushel in the Chicago market. It | is estimated two and a half million bushels of contract wheat, which ecost him upward of 110 per bushel, will be delivered on Monday.” It is not con- sidered-a squeezing transaction at all. He has sold the wheat ahead to for- eigners, and asks for its delivery in | order that he may meet his own sales. The May option seems congested. | Many have sold, trusting to past ex- periences to favor the paper seller. The conditions east of the Rockies since last harvest can be as easily handled on this coast. The milling demand will | be a factor of vital importance in shap- | ing wheat values this year. The war going on will result in neglect of farm work and prove of no small conse- | quence. In reviewing the situation at home and abroad one can hardly fig-| ure out a condition that will favor| much lower prices than those prevail- ing at present. Yesterday's market was one of ex- treme nervousness. Closing Liverpool cables quoted September wheat 3%d and December %d higher, the advance com- | ing in the face of a big decline in Amer- | ican markets yesterday. At the ini-| tial trading yesterday December sold | at 174 Heavy offerings by local plung- ‘ers broke the price quickly to 173 from where it rallled to 174%5. . The advance was of short-duration, buyers becoming | timid 'and ‘selling out, thereby assist- ing: the shorts in hammering prices. The ‘market did not find a resting place until 172% “was reached. Good support- ing . orders. stopped the decline and caused a rally to 172%. May was nomi- nally-174; - May sellers gave notice of deliveries for Monday. Shippers are the principal holders of May contracts. The market closed for the week in an oversold condition.. Should foreign markets show advancing tendencies this. week no doubt shorts would find wheat offerings scarce and a sharp.ad- vance result. Barley has been dull and worthy of no special note. Prices held fairly firm in the face of heavy importation of corn into the State. The market will not probably feel the true result of corn feeding until stock has been educated to its use. At first onfy light feeding of corn can be indulged in, its feeding being graduated. ‘'There are nmow en route 1700 cars of corn from the East destined to points in the State. De- cember barley closed at 133% with few buyers or sellers. . All May contracts will be met, which may overstock the spot market. FATHER DE MINSINI'S JUBILEE.

Arrest of Arthur Kern, Aged Six- teen Years, for Grand Larceny. Arthur Kern, aged 16 years, and James Dormady, aged 21 vears, were arrested last evening by Detectives Ryan and Q'Dea and locked up in the tanks. Kern is employed by the Columbia Tea Com- pany of 250 Sixth street in the capaci<y of clerk. During the past week, it is claim- ed, he managed to get away with $120 be- longing to his employer: His scheme was to await a favorable oportunity and then rob the cash drawer. As suspicion was fastened on him his employers notified the police, with the result that Ryan and O'Dea were detailed to make an investigation. Last evening,' becoming convinced that Kern was the culprit, they decided to ar- rest him. He was found in the company of Dormady, who was also taken into cus- tody. When searched at the City Prison $108_ was found in the possession of Dor- mady. He admitted that the money had been given to him by Kern. The latter made a confession to the detectives, ad- mitting his guilt and claiming that Dor- mady had received most of the money. It is more than likely that Dormady will beicharged with being an accessory to the crime. ——————————— Cost of the New Charter.
