MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS
Chamber Of COlnlnerce.


There were large receipts of wheat In the
Northwest, but the effect OF them on the
market was lost in report of a shortage IN
Europe. On the strength of shorts covering
on the European report, the market rose
nearly cent MlllerS took hold OF samples
well and SPECTATORS of futures. Later in
the day the enthusiasm of early bullish re-
ports wore off and business was less active.
A sale of $4,000 bushels No. norsnern
May was made at soc. No. northern tut
cember 84e May; then weakened Ac, and
later fiuctuated lightly through the day. The
visible was estimated at from l, zoo, 900 to
1000, COZ bu, There has been little ex-
port from the Northwest of No. northern.
New York millers have absorbed consider
able. and a great deal has gone to interior
mills, all of which may make some differ
ence and show smaller increase than ex-
peeled.

Receipts of wheat for the day were 46S
cars. and Ill were shipped. against receipts
of 517 and shipments of SO Friday. The
strong tone of speculative markets held up
prices of cash wheat, and sellers were asking
higher prices for everything above No: 2
northern. There appeared to be fair in
9uiry from local millers, and outside buyers
were in the market for supplies. Early Sc
lections sold at about half cent advance
over yesterday, but only for the best milling
wheat. Low grades were slow to sell, and
much Of this class was carried over. Duluth
receipts were 321 cars. Peacock estimates
the weekly increase in local elevator stocks
at go, 900 blu.

Sales of -four continue on limited scale.
but there was some inquiry, and mlllers
showing disposition to name figures some
thing under nominal quotations received
some attention. Those among the millers
that sold heavily week ago and placed the
sales considerable time ahead held rather
firmly to the recent advance. and argued to
the others that as much -four could be sold
al full prices as at cut figures; that all Inc
-four needed for currcut use would be taken
in either event, and no more could be sod.
On the other hand, those with small forward
sales contended that little cut would give
them the business as the others would not be
likely to meet them.
