MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce,

Cables came weak yesterday morning; light
business reported. Weather was reported
fair for securing the crop in England. In the
Northwest receipts Of wheat were increasing
at country stations, aud in some sections
farmers were selling more of their stored
grain. Local prices sympathized with the
common weakness ana the early tendency
was lower. Later there were light fluctua-
tons and few sales at a fraction higher.
Receipts were large, but not SO large as had
been looked for.
There was decline of l, 053, O33 blu In the
local stock of wheat reported for the visible
supply, but S1O,95S Blu was through drop
ping three elevators from the regular report
ing list. September sold lightly at about
1850, October at 73S407375c, May about soc
and fraction above.
Following are the closing quotations: No.
l hard, September. 76c; October, TIC; De-
cember, 78Hc; on track. 7SI2Q79c. No. 1

cember, 73c; on track, 71@72c.
Receipts Of wheat over Sunday were $40
cars and 48 were shipped out against 325
received and SO shipped for the same time
last week. Sellers began by asking Saturdays
prices for milling samples, but millers held
off for time, refusing to take anything.
They were making bids for the stuff at about
14c below the market and on any decline the
trade would have been active. The lead on
the tables was not alarming, as there evil
IDENTIFY exists a good milling demand for
large quantities. Outside and local millers
signs of break. Some traders claimed they
sold No. l northern and No. hard as nigh
as they could Saturday. Duluth received 371
cars.
ELoUR AND COARSE GRAIN S.
Flour-The following mills wer e running
yesterday: Phoenix, Washburn G, Anchor,
NorlhWesters Pillsbury A and B, Dakota,
Columbia, Holly, Humboldt, Minneapolis. st.
Anthony, Excelsior and Crown Roller.
The added daily output of the fourteen
mills grinding yesterday will probably aggre-
gate 1868 bbls.
The fine quality of the new crop Of spring
wheat in the Northwest is claimed to.be cause
of part of the existing dizziness in the flour
trade. The way it explained is that the
new crop wheat is always thought to be I'M
safe for keeping in flour II ground separately
from old, before about Oct. / and the OLD
being Door, as little of it is wanted as 1t is
possible to avoid. Soitis that, in avoiding the
old and waiting for the new, an unusual
dizziness lies between the two. Flour experts
insist that owing to the superior character OF
the new crop wheat it is absolutely safe with
out any admIxture of old wheat. Still. there
has been some recent depression in values,
and contracts can be made lower now than
in the past, and, while the succeeding weeks
show the later prices to be lower than the
earlier, there is small prospect OF demand
getting ahead Of actual and even pressing
