Receipts of wheat for the past "a hours
were 2ll cars with shipments 30 cars. The
early demand for cash wheat from the sample
tables was slow and came principally from
local millers. Still the days business aggre-
gated quite large and was called fairly salts
factory by most dealers. Prices Obtained
were higher than those of yesterday for
similar grades, due more to the better tone
reported from outside markets than TO any
activity in the general demand, excepting
from home millers who bought quite freely,
a portion, of the day. The outside demand
seemed to be lighter than usual and some
lots not meeting the views of local miilers
hung on to the last The country movement
was reported fair i'll few places where the
greater part of the remaining supply is held.
Elevator companies were active buyers near
the close.
