MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Domestic markets were excited this morn
ing and considerable evening up by shorts
were reported. Cables, on the other hand,
were slow and noticeable devoid of activity.
Liverpool reported wheat slow off coast and
easier on passage, with spot firm. The
weather was generally fair throughout the
spring wheat country and reported the same
from the Ohio valley.
The crowd was disposed to sell on little
bulges and TO buy on breaks with more out
side orders for both sides. The opening for
September was at about 75c and later adj
vancing to 755Sc, while there was further
spread in December going to 7Sl2c. Changes
showed falling off later with further small
fluctuations near the close.

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAIN.
Flour-The following mills were running
yesterday: Phoenix, Washburn and b,
Anchor, Northwestern, st. Anthony Pills
Columbia. Humboldt, Petit and Palisade
The added daily output of the fourteen mills
grinding yesterday will probably aggregate
19,925 bbls. The flour market remains quiet
but has been stirred little by the late activ-
ity and advance In wheat. Holders are more
confident and buyers are making more in
quiries, with rather larger transactions re-
ported. There seems to be reason, in the
short European supply OF wheat, to sup
pose the bottom Of the wheat market
few days ago at 73c. Still, the sharp
rise was due to unhealthy activity,
by shorts covering and will hardly, cause
much change in flour prices without
stronger foundation. Patents, sacks to local
