MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS..
Chamber of Co,n,uerce.

At fraction above Monday nights closing
price of wheat, there was considerable de-
mand for December and some for May. The
inquiry for the latter was better Than for sew
eral days before, and the price of it ranged
about 6I4c above December. Considerable
of December has been lei out on the market
in the last few days in quiet way against
the purchase of cash wheat by elevator com
panies both in Minneapolis and in the in
terror. That supply floats from one to an
other, and furnishes basis for good future
trade. At the same time it comes out so
gradually as not 10 fall with serious weight
on the market at any time, while it removes
the fear of short supply to meet contracts
falling due and requiring delivery Prices
hardened during the early part of the session
until December reached 966sc and May
Sl.O27s, after which the market fell in q sort
of rut for good deal of the remainder of the
session.

track, 81; No. 1 northern, October, 95lsc;

CASH WHEAT.
The demand for wheat in cars was better
yesterday, and as the large offerings of the
previous day had been sold up better than
had been expected. the tables were not bur-
dened as it had been feared they would be-
Still. the offerings were full, and supplied
the demand pretty well. Buyers took hold
from the first, and more of the supply was
moved early than usual No. l northern of
the higher sample class sold easiest. but the
sold better, and inferior lots sold with salts
faction most generally. AoOut the middle of
the session there was more weakness that af
fected the cash market as well as the fut-
ures, forcing about l2c decline and resulting
in less activity, though with the good early
start that had been affected wheat holders
managed to get through quite well.

Demand was quiet. for the buyers evidently
expected held back to get the full drop in
-four they expect from the late decline in the
wheat markets. The millers as q rule appear
to be inclined to accommodate their figures
to any change in the markets that may have
in them anything more than temporary fluc
tuationS. While the general range of quota
tons remained about the same. there was a
noticeable inclination to shade the figures in
patents. while bakers were pretty well held
