greediness, besides adding largely to the

GRAIN FOR EUROPE.
How Mim Ii Amriira Can Supply Thl« Vr»r.
but Caimol Carry.
Mr. Franklin Edson, one of the leading
grain merchants in New York has furnished
a reporter of the Commercial Advertiser
with data about the grain crop of this
country, apropos of the information given
the state department at Washington by the
United States Minister to Greece about the
failure of tbc crop in southern Rasaia, and
consequent opportunity presented to tiiia
country of controlling to a great extent the
markets of the world. Mr. Ed eon thinks
that wc will have at least 100,000.000 bush
of wheat alone to spare, and the prioea ob
tainable for this surplus, although not
likely to be high, will at least be fair. He
sees no reason why the United States
should not secure the English, Prcnch and
Italian markets under the present circum
stancea. bat at the same time believe* It. to
be a great mistake that we do not secure the
carrying trade as well. He expressed him
self decidedly in favor of something being
done at once toward restoring the American
commercial marine to its former strength.
Mr. Walker, the produce exchange statis
tician, also being asked for his views, said
that the United States would have'' between
80,000,000 and 100,000,000 bushels of wheat
to spare, while Europe would want about
150,000,000 bushels. He, however, tliought
that while the Black Sea supply, amounting
to about 40,000,000 bushela, ^ald be cut
on, the Baltic nrovincea of Ruilua would
ati 1 be able to nurniah front 8,000i000to 10,
000,000 hushela while other countriee may
furnish nearly 50,000,000 bushels more.
About the corn crop Mr. Walker thought
that, judging from la»t year, England will
want about 60,000,000 bushels, 00,000,000
of which were supplied by this country, and
20,000,000 by southern Kurope, which last
will this year be entirely cut off. He saw
no reasou to suppoae that America would be
unable to supply the whole, aa the crop was
a verv fine one this year and at the same
time he apprehended no rise in the price
here on account of the increased export de
mand.
