St. Paul wired to Chicago: “H. V. Jones, in the Commercial West, after a personal in- epection, estimates the crop as follows in the following States: Kansas, 79,500,000 bushels; 42,000,000; Oklahoma, 25,000,000 Texas, 18,000,000; Missouri, 45,000,000; total, 209,500,000, against 180,000,000 in 1902. He estimates the total United States crop at 740,- 000,000 as a maximum, for' the three Northwestern States. 55,000,000 bushels more than in 1902. allowing 200,000,000 This is The market soid off on this report, but the Chll:uo letter of Bolton, De Ruyter & Co. sald: arket here was quiet; close was rather strong. The item of the day was the estimate of the Commercial West on the crop. They figure a total of 740,000,000 bushels. From the character of the reports we get of the spring returns so far as has progressed in the winter wheat country we think the estimate is a good many millions too high. We confidently ex- | pect that the Government report of the 10th of July will reflect our view of the case. The Northwest 15 still without rain, but any dam- age from that cause is modified by the cool weather. Rain is, however, much feded, and if delayed it will become a bullish factor. With present condition of the crop and supply and demand and the prospective wants to be satisfied from the growing crop, we think the long side of wheat s right. Liverpool Is slow to believe the crop damage reports, and, ac- cording to Broomhall, is figuring on an 800,- 000,000 bushel crop, The Government report of July 10 may open their eyes. Any material | break seems unlikely and higher prices are not improbable." This market was quiet and unchanged. CASH WHEAT.

New Potatoes were very firm in the early | morning, owing to the late arrival of the river boats with fresh supplies, and sales of extra fancy stock were reported at a little higher than the quotations. The late arrivals came in to a slenderly supplied market and vrevious yrices were maintained. Old Burbanks ruled steady at unchanged prices. Onions moved freely at about the same prices. Receipts of Vegetables by boat from the river were marketed late, and an aceident on the narrow-gauge line delayed shipments from across the bay. Asparagus was in limited sup- ply and higher. The Sacramento boat, which generally brings large shipments of that Veg- etable, had not arrived up to noon. String Beans and Cucumbers were in good demand and brought higher prices. Summer Squash frem the bay was steady, but some large open boxes from the river, which arrived late, were offering as low as $1 per box. Tomatoes in small packages were steady and large open boxes from the river sold at $3 50. Green Corn continued to bring good prices, the top quo- tation being for choice lots from Alameda.

The fruit market was active, ds retailers were buying freely for the Sunday trade, and there was a steady demand for shipment od the Puget Sound steamer. Supplies of Cher- ries were ample, but owing to the accident to the narrow gauge train receipts from across the bay came to hand late, and prices were a little firmer in the early morning. The can- ners were still in the market, but were buying less freely than previously. The shortage of cans for packig, caused by labor troubles, the reason for their indifference. s of the Mver boats caused a slump in prices of fruit from that section, and there was a heavy surplus unsoid at the close of busin Small lots of Apricots_in bulk sold on the wharf at $20 per ton. With the exception of Peaches, fruit in baskets was of poor quality and moved slowly. Despite a steady demand for shipping, prices of emall tree fruits in small packages tended downward cupplies being excessive.

The other berries were easy at unchanged rates. Offerings from the river and around the bay were marketed late and had to be dis- posed of quickly. Currants were very dull and there was heavy surplus unsold at the close. There was nothing new to report in Citrus fruits, prices of sound repacked stock being well maintained.
