MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Inc markets. started out uull anu weak.
with a narrow range. Later, on report of
eleven loads taken in New York for export
the feeling was more firm, with fractional,
though mainly temporary advances. De
cember bidders mostly talked about 1Sc, with
September about &c below, and August 1919
@19c nominal. More or less local damages
were suffered from hail storms yesterday, but
they were too limited in extent to affect gen.
eral results. The weather to-day was soft,
and tends to hold back the movement of new
wheat, which helps the sale of the remain
der of the old crop.
Following are the closing quotations: No.
l hard on track, 9S@99c: No. l northern
cash, SIC; August, 79c: December, 7SMc;
on track. ss@S9c; No. northern on track,
S30S5c.
There was some demand for cash wheat
among the sample tables in the morning, and
trade was restricted ~ the limited amount of
wheat offered of the proper quality. There
were few orders in from mills to the South
and East for certain qualities of wheat to
work in with their new winters. and had
there been larger offerings the trade could
have absorbed more without weakening
prices A fair inquiry existed for good No.
l also. The poorer qualities OF frosted were
the hardest to sell. Receipts were 81 cars
and 43 were shipped. Duluth received 3
cars. No. 2 was offered freely at the close at
"a, with no demand.

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The following mills were running
yesterday: Phoenix, Humboldt Petit Min
neapolis, Galaxy: Anchor, Holly, St An
western Crown Roller and Excelsior. The
added daily output of the 16 mills grinding
yesterday will probably aggregate 20, GO bbls.
The flour market has held pretty steady since
the decline few days ago, ranging from DC
to zoe a barrel for the different grades and
for makes of different mills. The wet
weather this week promises delay i'll thresh-
ing also to dampen the grain and delay the
time it will be in condition to grind II such
conditions are prolonged to great extent,
there will be more demand for priced old
wheat, and the prices of spring wheat patents
will be longer sustained at present values.
All of which will reduce stocks of old spring
wheat flour on hand. The distribution
was reported fair by most millers, though
there was no greater liberality in the
amount of each single order, all being evil
IDENTIFY with an eye to expected declines.
