Receipts In Minneapolis aud Duluth were
902 cars of wheat, the larger arrivals pro-
ducng some depression In the feeling of
traders. Ii was commended on the one side
that the renewed movement indicates con-
tlnuance of the same for an indefinite pc
riod. On the other hand, II was insisted that
the large arrivals were merely the cleaning
up of delayed cars from earlier shipments,
which, added TO current shipments, made
the movement larger than was expected.
Cables were fairly firm, and six loads OF No.
2 red were taken in New York for export.
The market opened SliAc May, sold up to
SIle@DSlssc. and later declined A6osSc, with
moderate fluctuations later. December was
mostly nominal at ToGl75Ac. with sales at
the latter figure The demand during por-
ton of the day was slack and offerings were
smaller. Some fair.size1 orders were exc
euted for outside account but most OF the
trading appeared to be local.

Local receipts OF wheat were 800 cars and
81 shipped. There was some demand for
milling wheat at l26llc lower than the early
sales yesterday Al the decline there was
moderate buying by local millers, who were
picking it up slowly during the day, and
with a little buying by other parties, the
close. Wheat that was not strictly milling
sold slowly and much of il was hard TO dis
pose of at prices netting results at all salts
Factory. The large arrivals covered the
tables heavily. and TO them were added cars
of low grade carried over from previous
offerings. There was less activity, on the
whole. than had been usual recently; but,
considering general depression, trading was
fair

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The added daily output of mills
grinding yesterday will probably aggregate
"a ,355 bbls. The output of local mills was
not large, and the offerings went quite we'll.
In general way the market was called slow,
as it was regarding large transactions. MI
merous small orders were filed to keep job
bers. retailers and consumers gong. Most
of the trade seem to be carrying shall stocks
that have to be replenished often, which
Keeps local mills running at about all the ca
pacity they can muster, considering the low
stage of the water and the mills that can do
but little when depending upon 1t. Prices
remain steady. Patents, sacks to local
