Cash Wheat-About all the fault that SELL
ers of cash wheat had with the market was
that the price OF II was too low TO satisfy.
Receipts were smaller ana there was none
100 much wheat TO go around among those
that wanted it. More would have sold quite
as easily if IL were not for exactions OF the
railroads in moving il, when here, to points
where II was wanted. Several buyers for
wheat to ship were active, as were many. OF
the local millers They seem 10 feel that
wheat is relatively cheap and they found
money 10 pay for ii. The samples offered
were better taken and quicker than usual or
for some previous days. While the market
was lower there was more hope of the end
OF the break. Receipts wheat, 3s5 cars;
shipments, Ia cars; Duluth received 81
cars.

needed to tone up our market now menaced
with a small surplus.
