MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

The wheat market was active in the Deem
Der future from the start, with active trading
by several commission men and receivers.
Representatives of the various railway eleva-
tor companies were doing considerable and
millers were noticeable among the future
dealers. The demand was good. and while
no one was conspicuous in fighting the rise,
there was great deal Of December wheat to
sell, as 1t was thought to hedge cash pur
chases. These prevented rise to correspond
with sharp bulges at other places. The range
for December was from Sic up to Slsc, and
back to S0s4c about ~ o'clock, followed by
other small fluctuations The other futures
moved in the regular order. Cables were
firm, and the late ones half-penny higher.
Chicago reported orders there for Duluth
wheat but 4@5c too low to work. Most
every one was expecting reaction. SO no
one was surprised when 1t came about noon.
Following are the closing quotations: No.

ceipts posted yesterday of 29l and 70

for milling wheat, and the demand appeared
to be considerably less than on the day be-
fore. Buyers held off more at the start and
many of them refused to take any grain at
doing much. Prices were unsettled, and No.

able whether it sells more easily than it sold
before the rise There has been a large in
quiry. and there have been some pretty large
sales. Flour followed wheat somewhat lag.
gardly, giving buyers OF 1t chance, after
wheat had gone up, to buy -four at the old
prices, an opportunity many embraced. That.
increased the movement and induced buy
ing more freely after the rise also. There is
looked for a reaction in wheat, but If it raj
lies again without fatal plunge flour may
not follow it down the temporary decline and
be more ready to move into more activity on
the rally. Patents, sacks TO local dealers,
