The wheat market opened steady at about
the closing price of Monday, and fiuctuated
nightly at first, with moderate trading at
about 7es4@I87sc May. Prices varied but
little from that until shortly after the noon
hour, when there was an advance to zee, at
Whlch price some quite large sales were
made. subsequently there was little more
hrmness, and a shade more was asked. The
shorts seemed to be pretty well evened up,
as there was very little uneasiness mani
rested IN IN consequence OF the firm
ness. Elevator companies were not
putting out any large lines. Liver
pool reported some 1rmness with better de-
mand. New York seemed little firmer. and
Chicago reported that New York traders had
cancelled their selling orders. Reports from
California were unfavorable, and it was said
the present prospect on that coast does not
warrant expectation of large CROP due
mainly to less breadth than usual seeded.
ment estimated better wheat conditions than
year ago was denied to-day. Following
are the closing quotations: No hard, Jan
uary. 78l2c; February, 7sl2c; May, S112c;
February, 76Ac; May, 79c; on track, 7712c;
NO, northern. January, 73l2c; February,
T3l2c; May, 7612c; on track, 73I2@75c.
Local receipts of wheat for the past twen-
ty-four hours were $50 cars and 1S shipped
out. Duluth received 10 cars. The demand
for cash wheat of the better grades was fair.
Early IN the day buyers and sellers were
somewhat apart in their views, but later, with
slight concessions on both sides, the most of
the offerings were disposed of. The range of
prices were about the same as yesterday,
though more of it seemed to go at the top
quotations. Poor wheat was in very light de-
mand. and If there had been much of it tc
sell 1t appeared that declines would have
been needed to move it; as it was a few cars
were carried away unsold.
