SPECULATION IN WHEAT.
RUMOURS OF FAMINE Fortunes Made Vanish. London, April 18. “The .fortunes made by wheal speculators in Liverpool have vanished in the sudden slump,” says. l the Sunday Dispatch in recording a decrease of a shilling per cental on the Liverpool Corn Exchange within 24 hours. The Sunday newspaper, the People, says.: “Secrets are beginning to leak out, showing that the hoisting of prices in the past six months was one of the biggest ramps ever. Prices were forced up on rumours of a coining wheat famine. Now crop reports show that American and Australian harvests are likely to be a million busluds better than last year.”
