Private Wife to Glbert A Clay. t Jilcpgo, Aug. 27.—There is nothing In the cables or weather to give encouragement to the wheat butt. His best help is the fact holders show no anxiety about their i(ft< . but ou the contrary seem willing to Increase them. We believe wheat Is close to the iMittnm. ,• Bears continue to pouiul new corn. The Bccord-llerald says: "'This week trill be a rather critical one in the wheat trade. With good weather during the latter part of It It should see a big Increase In the marketings of new spring wheat lu the Northwest, ami ’also the liquidation by such of the September longs as do nor care to accept delivery of the gnrtu on Saturday next. There is every prospect that these deliveries will be euorimni*. but they will go mainly Into the hands of the curriers for the elevators, despite the fact that a larger percentage than lit many years will take In the wheat nnd pay for It. 'I’he •vent of the last week was the private hanging over of about 6,000,000 bushels of September wheat to December by the prin cipal long*. The latter paid 8*4 to make the transfer, which of course must l*e lidd ed to the cost of their original purchase. It- Is In the favor of the holder that the spring wheat crop In the Northwest Is prov ing n disappointment. Instead of bumper yields. It Is now prety well conceded that the crop Is only nn average one. nnd It remains to lie seen whether It Is up Hi the standard In fiour-tunklng qualities."
