Chamber Of Commerce,

The market to-day was a dull, dragging
one. The bulls were waiting for lighter
wheat receipts ana larger exports, and max
ing predictions as TO when each would occur,
but there was too little probability to base
figures upon that carried with them conf
dence in fulfllment. The aggregate arrivals
OF wheat here and at Duluth was larger and
confusing TO those people looking for an
early decline IN the movement. At times
there was some activity in futures, and alto
gether there was O fair volume of trading,
December selling mostly at T4ss@75c aud
May at SOls0SO12c. There was nothing SEN
sat1onal in news. Cables noted firmneSS in
London with some demand from France
with beaviness for spot wheat in Liverpool.
After the temper of cash wheat had been
tested and found pretty good the feeling was
better for futures, followed by an advance.
News from the country showed active farm
deliveries.
Following are the closing quotations: No l

kecsipts of wheat here for the twenty-four
hours were 49, cars, and 100 were shipped
ont. against receipts posted the day before eff
403 care and shidments 100. There was
firm tone to the cash market at the begin
ming, and the early selections made by local
miilers who were looking for the best in the
market, were picked up at prices that were
shade above the last sales of the day before.
Quite number of sales were made at 76c,
but the bulk of No. l northern went at 7512c,
with some at I5Ac. No. hard was not i'm
proved, owing to the limited demand. The
lower grades were dull Local millers were
best buyers of good wheat. Duluth received
$50 cars, against 3S6 the previous day.

Anchor, Palisade. Pillsbury and B, Column
bia, Cataract, st. Anthony, Dakota Holly.
Standard, Petit, Excelsior. Galaxy, Crown
Roller and Minnes polls. The added daily out
put Of the nineteen mills grinding yesterday
will probably aggregate 26,380 bbls. The
market quiet with q fair inquiry re-
ported and moderate business transacted
for the day. Some millers thought there was
less demand than for the few preceding days
this week, while others could see very little
general change. All local millers appear to
be very well supplied with accepted orders
and were running well up TO capacity. With
probability of lower ocean freights and
lighter wheat movement, flour makers begin
to look for possible improvement in prices
as well as activity later IL the season. Patents,
