MINNEAPOLIS.
Chamber OF Commences.

On the local board there was only small
amount of wheat offered and sellers we're
holding firm but buying was not active and
miliers were taking mostly in single car lots.
About all the cash wheat was picked up be-
fore the close. Futures were slow and round
lots did not meet with any demand at the
prices of the day before. Made was held a
shade higher without buyers. Local stocks

Flour-Market Record: Millers are not
pushing the manufacturing department with
very great activity, and are not averse to
closing on one or another .pretext while there
is so little profit in grinding. Sales were
again light with moderate sales for domestic
distribution, with most of the movement on
sales previously booked. A few cables
brought bids, with others of inquiry for
prices. AT a late hour in the day there was
no report of sales Bids were here from
Glasgow at 23s 3d-6d for bakers, but were
declined. 1t is probable that bids al 24s

and if the roads continue to get showed in
