MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.


Chamber of Commerce.
Wheat opened strong with some demand
for futures, but declined Acin the next two
hours. The advance and early firmness APP
peared 10 be on weather and cables. The
weakness was due to heavy offerings of De-
cember and May. other markets sympathizing
with ours in the decline. There was some
talk in Chicago that December wheat, long
to Hutchinson, did not settle, and he was in
the pit buying it this morning. Still, Decem-
Der is too far off for the situation to be much
effected by it yet though that market is
claimed to be heavily short for December.
In New York $4,000 blu NO. red went into
store and $4,000 bu inspected out Export
purchases there yesterday were claimed TO be
fully 20 loads on spot and 10 arrive. aud ex
porters were wanting to buy hard spring this
morning. New York cleared 10000 bu
wheat and 10000 packages of flour. Arri-
walls in the Northwest aggregated less than
700 cars though reports from the country
show large movement. There was an active
call for money to-day to be sent out to buy
wheat with. Country shippers were calling
for all the cars they could get, so that little
decline need be expected i'll the arrivals for
an indefinite period, except they be checked
by bad weather.
