slow business continued so most or the SeS-
sion in the futures market. Considering the
large number of cars arriving in the last two
days. including Sunday. the demand for car
lots was fair. With very GOOD milling de-
mand, competition kept prices mp better
than the futures market. Prices were firmly
held, and milling competition was TOO sharp
for elevator companies to buy. Exporters
were reported buying some in New York,
with SIX loads taken early in the day. and
bids were sent Vest for the purchase
Of Northwest spring for export.
Cables were steady and general markets
abroad called slow. 1t was said that there
was some buying in New York for France.
Arrivals her and at Duluth aggregated 1859
cars of wheat which was smaller than the
general run for Mondays since the crop
began to move actively. Receipts in the
country from farm del veries held up large
in the north and middle portions OF the
northwest but were falling of in the south.
December was at $50 51sc most of the
morning. and May S9l2@S aSc. The visible
supply increased for the week l, 100000 bu.

Receipts of wheat over Sunday were sos
cars and 20 were shipped out. against re-
ceipts posted last Monday of $40 cars and
shipments of 100. Sample tables were well
filled, but the firm tone of the speculative
market enabled sellers to get stiff prices for
all good milling wheat. The demand was
mainly from city milIers. shippers and eleva-
tor com panleS doing very little. Toward the
last sellers were accepting lower prices AS
the demand did not hold up and some grain
was carried away unsold at the close. Duluth
