observation-disclosures l66 cars
and shipments IS cars. The stocks here in
public elevators are expected to show about
100000 bushels increase for the week. The
change from decrease in previous weeks to an
increase now. is due to the large arrivals from
interior elevators for several days. The farm
movement was reported small except few
points in Minnesota. The local demand for
spot wheat was smaller, as the flour market
did not respond TO wheat. In the last up move
ment holders of spot wheat asked higher
prices to correspond with the rise In futures,
but millers hold back, and there was little out
side buying. Closing quotations: No. hard,
