Chamber of Commerce.
There was firm wheat market this morn
ing and prices were bid up without buying
much until l2@Ic was added to the closing
price of Saturday. Receipts were large but
there was little for sale for May or July
prices were rapidly advanced The late
wind storm in the northern portions of
Minnesota and Dakota, added to an already
bullish feeling here. with some rise at the
other places, seemed to be the basis of the
days strength. Tomorrow is a holiday and
the shorts were working for cover TO go over
to Wednesday, considering the spirited bid
ding Trading was light
The sharp demand for wheat futures this
morning put up prices after the opening
nearly 1c, which rise was quite well sustained
through the greater part of the session. May
opened at S714c. nominal and July at 9614c,
and they later advanced to 8S4c and STAG
respectively. with considerable trading in
July at S71sc and a little at S7Sbc Dur
ing the most active part of the session the
bulk of the business was at a fraction above
SIC. The news that seemed most influential
was the crop scare in the north of Minnesota
and Dakota, due to dry weather and heavy
winds. There was also reported more New
York export demand.
There was firmer feeling in cash wheat due
to the strength shown by futures more than
any thing else Some orders from outside
mlllers were being received, and most wheat
sold was for that account. Local millers
were looking at the tables, but did not buy
much, claiming that sellers were asking too
much for the grain. Sales of.choice milling
wheat, such as the best No. northern. were
made at about cent advance early, but
while sellers were asking higher prices for
everything only small portion of the low
grade wheat was sold, and the market
dragged on all classes save nice No. ] north
ern. Receipts were 339 cars. and 81 were
shipped out. Duluth received IL cars. The

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Market Record: Flour-The following
mills were running to-day: Pillsbury A and
B, Phoenix, Anchor. Washburn 8, Petit,
and Minneapolis. The added daily capacity
of the seven mills grinding amounts to
probably not exceed $3.50 bbls.
This market was dull, with improvement
in the demand at lower prices. The danger
is, perhaps in the possibility of an early rise
in wheat, without corresponding advance in
flour. 1t would appear that flour in the IN
terror is selling rather better, as shown by the
activity of millers. outside of this city, in
picking up wheat here to keep their mills
running. They mainly depend on local con-
sumption ill their own neighborhood for
the sale of their flour and the price they
demand for their flour on a local short
age in their wheat supplies. Patents,
