Argentine Reports More Rain and
All the Markets Feel the
*ll Effect.
Minneapolis Elevator Stocks Are
Now Climbing Above
14,000,000 Bu.
Primary Receipts Not So Heavy'
News of the Grain
Trade.
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, Jan. IS.
The week ended with T\heat firm and no such
closing decliue as had been expected. It was
thought jesterday that many would not want
to stand long over Sunday, and'that selling out
mignt send the market lower. This did not work
out. On the contrary the range was narrow,
and considerable buying was noted at vtimes.
The market more than held Its own. Interest
is now directed principally towards Argentine,
where, according to tellable reports, there is
rain one day after another, and the qualify of
the wheat is being lowered, besides which a
considerable loss in quantity seems probable.
The trade will huve to wait longer before it
will be possible to tell how serious this is.
That there have been heavy rains, and that rain
]a not a good thing for the crop, especially at
this particular time, is true. As Argentine ex
ports the great bulk of her production, and 8b
it has to cross the equatorial line In transit to
Europe, it will not' turn out well if it is et.
Nevertheless it is a little early yet to get
cared.
For one day the increase in local elevator
stocks was 225,000 bu. The lucrease for last
week was 1,367,000 bu, which makea the total
in store, as shown in today's report, 18,706,000.
With the one day figured In the total is well
over 14,000,000 bu, and 15,000,000 bu appears
almost certain for Saturday next unless the
mills start In grinding heavier and buying cash
wheat more freely. Flour shipments of 43.506
barrels look better than of late, and the fig
ures are not likely to average lower from now
on, with everything favoring a much larger
movement towards the end of the month. The
primary movement did not look so big. Duluth
got 126 cars compared with 27 last year, Chi
cago 37 against 12, but the southwest showed
only a standoff, with 46,000 bu and 47,000 for
the Kansas City comparison and 88.000 and 32,000
for that of St. Louie, while Minneapolis fell
off noticeably, only 286 cars appearing against
887. Canadian wheat also turned up in smaller
quantity, 115 cars coming into Winnipeg
against 126.
Many opinions, both bearish and bullish, ap
pear. The Commercial West says: "It Is too
early to talk about winter-wheat damage or to
discuss spring-wheat seeding. The factor that
will more the market must come from Europe.
There are reports of serious Injury to Argentine
wheat by rains, and one estimate of exportable
surplus Is 88,000,000 bu, or about 25,000,000
to 30,000,000 bu less than last year. There comes
from India an estimate of 30,000,000 to 40,000,-
000 bushels less than last year or for any year
for four years. There is skepticism about the
reports and a disposition to await more definite
information! Australia Is the only outside coun
try that will offer a full surplus. The Bouth
west markets are strong. The northwest market
Is comparatively weak because of large receipts,
hence in the minds of some a bullish factor be
cause of the relative cheapness."
Aldrlch, who voices bearish Chicago sentiment,
ays: "Notwithstanding all the grain shipped
to foreign countries, our stocks continue to
increase week by week. We have in the Chi
cago elevators now almost 30,000,000 bu of
grain against 12,000,000 one year ago and
11,000,000 two years ago."
Cuinmings, who sizes up speculative condi
tions, says. "To us the very stubborn resist
ance the market has displayed to the efforts to
break It lower In the face of bearish statistics
points strongly to the fact that the bear forces
aie short an immense line and are Inclined to
cover on all dips. The prolonged bull market
and enthusiasm in stocks, cotton and of late in
flax and provisions, has every appearance of
spreading to the grains, and if It be true as re
ported that Wall street money Is being invested
in wheat, everyone would want some and a
bulge of 10@15c could quickly follow."
Primary receipts. 564,000 bu against 663,000
Clearances equal 495,000 bu.
