MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Chamber of Commerce.
There was no snap to the market for wheat
futures yesterday. The feeling was quite
bullish at times, with other periods OF weak
ness, but trading was light about all day
There were open trades to be taken care OF,
and all such people as had them were in the
market to provide for them on the most
favorable terms. but new business was small.
The government report was waited Tor as IL
has in the past been noted TOR conslderaple
change in sentiment following it. The in
quiry for cash wheat and the brighter outlook
in the flour markets caused wholesome rear
of going short. Corn advanced Sharply ana
that also tended to hold wheat though some
favored the selling side. Liverpool and
London cables were firm and higher on red
wheat, and France was reported Duyer OF
cargoes. Other exchanges throughout the
country reflected about tue same general tone
of dizziness.

rather easier. but was by no means active.
