Th warm weatbtr of th past few day

belief on the part of dealers.
At th earn time, thcr Is a lift In th
lut of th arowsr.
Vale there te a msrksd chant of con
ditions. It scams certain, that tb price will
not be abov and may b below that' current
last year.
Th fact at th matter la tha dealers
bav received few Inquiries from brewers,
or from brewers brokers. This Is due In
lera measur. to heavy purchase mad
last year when hope were unusually cheap.

There was a probable carry-over, based
on lbs chesp prtc of hops, of possibly loo.
oon nundredwelgthe. although thla Is prob
lematical and Is bssed on the feci that the
conservative English brewer usually stocks
up.
Oa Board of Trad figures, tne net. im
ports, thst Is. deducting the total exports
from total Imports, were i:s.0oo hundred
weights. This give a total of 7T9.0OO hundred-
wcighta, from which th consumption, shown
by official figure aa &."0.0oo hundredweights,
should b deduclsd. leaving, point out the
bears, a surplus of I'-U.Cejo hundredweights.
The Lng;ih crop Is estimated aa irora

SHRINKAGE! OF EXPORT DKMAND
" CUTS PRICE ITa.
Reporta of Bumper Cereal Crop Aid
in Lowering Market; Oats
Also Are on Decline.
CHICAGO. Aug. 20. Shrinkage of export
demand, a circumslanue laid principally to
the sinking of the Arabic and the Bovie,
did a good deal today to lower the price
of wheat. The market, although steady at
the close, waa 1 to lo net lower, with
September at 1.04 and December at
$1.02. Corn showed, a setback of to
o and oats of m shade to c In
provisions, tho outcome received a 7c de
cline to a rise of be.
Aside from the results of German sub
marine activity, the chief Influence on the
wheat market was the bearish crop outlook
in th Northwest. Rains in tho Winter crop
states seemed to have had only a temporary
effect in favor of the bulls.
Assertions by a leading authority that the
crop of corn this season would amount to
3,000.000,000 bushels tended to weaken the
cereal. At first, however, the market wa.
on the advance, owing to cool temperature,
which were thought likely to hinder growth.
Oats fell back with wheat and corn.
Unsettling aspects of tho foreign trade
counterbalanced in the provision market a
lively attempt to lift price, on the ground
of tho backwardness of the orn crop.
Leading futures ranged aa follows:
WHEAT.
