Condit.ons seemed ripe for a bad break and all ‘over the pit the traders were predicting a bad dip to-day and still lower prices on Monday. At the outset the market |Wll rather quiet and featureless.

The Government report, which has been awaited with interest, 1s out. The statistician of the Department of Agriculture estimates the average yleld per acre of wheat in the United States In 1901 at 14.8 bushels, as compared with 12.3 in 1900, 12.3 in 1890, 153 in 1898 and 13.3 the mean javerage of the last ten vears. The newly | seeded area of winter wheat is provisionaily estimated at 32,000,000 acres, an Increase of 0.6 per cent upon the area estimated to have been sown in the fall of 1900. The department has no reports as to the condition of winter wheat later than December 1; at ‘that date it | was 867 per cent of the normal, as compared | with 97.1 in 1900, 97.1 in 1899 and 92.6 in 1898. The department will not issue any fur- ther estimate of the total production of any product of the soil until it has made such adjustments of its estimates for the last twe s as may seem to be required by the re- of the census based on actual farm to sitation now In cotrée of publication. farm Cnicago was nrm with light offerings, and dry, coil weather. The Government report as | Whole was considered bullish. Although it | ded 50,000,000 bushels to the crop, the lat- ter is still 50,000,000 bushels below the figures used by all European statlsticlans. The con- dition of winter wheat is bullish. A low De- cember condition has almost invariably resulted in e small winter wneat crop. There was a bear raid, led by Cudahy and Armour, who ! sold heavily. The outside buying was less, ,aud the selling was almost all on the short side, | new recruits being added to the shorts. St. | Louls was a heavy seller. - - The Saturday letter from Chicago to Bol- ton, De Buyter & Co. sl I you ive ramn out West over Bunday there wiil be a break. Ths Government report indicates crop of (76,000,000, an increase over previous estimate of 49,000,000. It gives the acreage of growing winter wheat crop at 32,000,000 geres, an increase of 4,000,000 acres over the crop last harvest. As some increase had been expected and as this estimgte is not as high as either the Price Current ‘or Snow, it was not taken as being very bearish. Ma ket opened strong and sold up to S3%@sic. The advance, however, met with heavy sell- ing both for Southwestérn account, particularly St. Louis, and for local professionals, much of the latter being ehort wheat. While the ex- | treme Southwest reports farmers still hoid- icru.ud offering In the winter wheat sections east of the river and perhaps more wheat ‘moving from warehouses at the extreme Sout] west. No rain is yet reported either in Cal | fornia or in the extreme Southwest, but con. ditlons eeem rather more favorable for it. T general tone of market has undergone a change, the volume of outside buying is hardly holding | its previous force and there is more of a fighting disposition noticeable among local trad- ers on the short side. We rather look for a scalping market and think it will be equally { safe to sell wheat on sharp bulges as to buy it on sharp breaks.” In this market futures advanced about a cent, but shipping grades stood the sam Spot Wheat—Shipping, $1 06%4@1 07%; mill- ing, $1 08%@!1 10 per ctl.

Eggs continue on the down srade and 20¢ is now about the highest price heard anywhere along the line. The Fxchamge reduced lts prices to 26@27c for ranch and 24@25c for gathered. Receipts are not heavy and the cold weather ought to help the market by cutiing down the production and increasing the con- sumption, but dealers are determined to sell to prevent any accumulation of stock, hence the decline. The feeling in Cheese continues wealk, stocks being too large for the market. There is nothing new in Butter, supplies be- ing_moderate as a ruje, though now and then a dealer reports himself oversupplied. The feeling is generally R;-" Receipts were 20, pounds of Butter, —— pounds of Eastern Butter, 400 cases of Bggs, —— cases of Eastern Eggs, 4300 pounds of California_Cheese and 8i0 pounds of Oregon Cheese and 26,400 pounds of Eastern Cheese.
