It must be remembered that only twelve working days Intervened since the previous glnnera 1 report, and If the pop ular estimates of lietweeu 6,800,000 and 6,900,003 Is verified tomorrow It means that approximately 400,000 bale* have been ginned over nnd above the corresponding period last year. It also means that 36,000 tulles a day have been ginned during the Last twelve days nnd above the dally aver age glnnlngs for the same period lu 19u5. or, In other words, n total dally ginning* of about 160,000 bales, equaling the highest itly set forth nnd slowly gaining In favor or 7.150,000 bales. Wltu these figures In mind. It would appear tbut the moru conservative policy to pursue would be to avoid following too closely s further loss In values, for It Is evident that a disappointing report tomorrow will cause considerable covering and n continent price movement which, even though tem porary, might prove sufficient to eradicate profits now In hand. Private Wire to Glbert A Clay. Chicago, Nov. 7.—Wheat opened steady to look for Chicago Itecoi east of the Itockl-J in tills country there was an annual decrease of 1,006,000 bushels for the week. The record of arrivals -at primary markets has since shown no Im provement . In this Jcgard. Total primary arrivals last week,, were 2,000,000 bushels less than those of n year ago.; ‘itroumhaJl's estimate • that the require ments-of Importing countries ot the world for ihe year wilt aggregate 545|000.000 hustf- els. or an average of a Uttle abort of 10,- 500.0ft) bushels per week. For the first sev enteen weeks of the crop year tho nvcrain* world's shipments, have been about 800,000 bushels weekly below Jhe above average, although for the last six weeks It has been about 1,400,000 bushels above It. "With a stubborn undertone nnd a dis tinct holding tendency shown In the wheat trade of thla country, which haa the largest available wheat surplus on earth, there would seem to be no occasion for depres sion elsewhere. Other countries, however, are handicapped by belua compelled to offer Interior grain and It Is with this lower quality that the American grower and mer chandiser Is expected to compete In the matter of prices. "Business current In the corn trade laat week was a distinct disappointment to those who thought they had previously discerned evidences of Increasing nctlvlt; The East Is evidently now dlj corn flint reached It following of the Heptember deal and Is noi uuying freely. The car situation of course Inter fered to a considerable extent with sales. The speculative branch of the trade haa not gnlued any on Hie cash department. Receiving nnd general cash grain handling concerns assert- that their purchases to date from the country have been far below those of a year ago. Home of the denlera, how ever. have seen some Increase quite recently In farmers' sales, although country dealers are not disposed to offer much aa yot.
