The Liverpool decline for the da.y was 21-2d to 41.4d on futures, with spot wheat quoted firm at 1d to 2d advance.

Springfield, Mass., Aug. eve- Au exten- sive enquiry )oto u European crop conditions, conducted by the Orange Judd syndicate of agricultural newspaper proprietors, includ- ing The American Agriculturist of New York, The Orange Judd Farmer of Chi- cago and The New England Homestead of Springfield, Mass., indicates that the food crop situation abroad is indeed grave. lls- timate3 of Europe's (including England) needs of wheat imports range all the way from 300 to 400 million bushels. Europe's wheat crops for 1895, 1804 and 1893 aver- aged about 1,500,000,000 bushels. In the famine year of 1891 it was only 1,200,000.- 000.
