MINNEAPOLIS. Jan. Cash wheat was not

wanted, though buyers were disposed to hold
back for lower figures. Sellers held out against

future market to some extent, but not sufficiently
to move the offerings well. Reports from the
country show that no wheat TO speak of was
timber sections OF Minnesota. The past days
receipts were go cars and shipments 30 ears.
