The Chicago letter of Bol- ton, de Ruyter & Co., sald: ‘“We cannot see ! much in the short side of wheat. We have | been bullish, both on facts and on the theory | The facts are that the world’s crop of wheat is short, the supplies of old wheat are ex- | hausted, and at current rates of consumption 1- year are to come, Stocks of flour are exhaust- ed and the demand !s large and urgent. So | far as this country is concerned farmers are | well to'do and both able and disposed to ma: ket their surplus slowly. These are the facts. Our theory has been that with small European crops, considerable damage and delay by bad weather and materlal injury to other food pro- | ducts, the Buropean demand in this country | must soon materialize on a considerable scale and become urgent. So far our theory is a disappointment. We still feel, however, that time s the only element of uncertainty. the meantime -at the helght of the movemes | stocks are not increasing and are very small In this market the only change was a de- | cline in futures.

CORN—The market continues weak owing to | the Iiberal receints from the West. The Chi- ago letter of Bolton, d= Ruyter & Co. say: is a little higher. There are fu her general rains throughout the West which | are not needed and which are unfavorable to the growing crop. There is also a cheertul | prospect of frost, particularly in the western boundary of corn belt. The cash situation is a fairly strong one.

The Chi- cago ietter of Boiton, de Ruyter & Co. said: ““There is not much change In prices. The general feeling fs fairly steady, with senti- ment probably favoring the bull - side. The advance from the low point has been a mate- but has been contributed to largely by the demand from shorts. Receipts of hogs are moderate and demand fair, Several wecks | of what should be a good period of consump- | tive demand are immediately ahead of us and | this influences the speculative feeling.

A private car has recently been built by the Bethlehem Steel Company for its own use. The company is supplying some very large castings for a 12,000-wmn forging press for the Carnegie Steel Company, and this car is for their transportation. The car has two sixteen-wheel trucks connected by bridge trusses 66 feet 10 inches long and 6 feet deep at the center. The distance between the king bolts is 64 feet. The car is 103 feet 10% inches long over the couplers, 10 feet 2'¢ inches high and 9 feet 9 inches wide. It weighs 19,420 pounds and has a rated capacity of 300,000 pounds. The largest car hitherto con- structed was probably that used by the Pennsylvania Railroad for transporting a Krupp sun to the Columbian Exposition. It also had thirty-two wheels, but its rated capacity was somewhat less than The Child’s Bank.
