Wheat has again advanced, the market evi¬ 
dently not taking the peace prospect very se¬ 
riously. Export sales of from 500,000 to 
1,000,000 bushels have been reported some days. 
The wlieat harvest in Australia is being de¬ 
layed by rains. Weather in Argentina is re¬ 
ported very favorable for corn. Wlieat ship¬ 
ments from Ind'ia are running about 500,000 
bushels per week. The wiieat yield in Spain 
was large, so that but little Importation is ex¬ 
pected.
