WHEAT FUTURES.
There was an INQUIRY for December wheat
this morning fraction higher than the late
figures Monday, with fair orders from out
side, some of them from Chicago. Wheat
was moving little better in the country, and
there were quite large sales against such pur-
chases. Local elevator carriers tried to do
something i'll the way of buying cash wheat
here and selling future months against it.
but were unable to do much, the cash lots
being held rather too high to get any storage
rate above cost and interest A moderate
buying was noted by investors for an ex-
pected reaction. Some lots of long wheat
had been carried through the decline. but
most of 1t had been closed out early in the
break
Following are the closing wheat quota
tons: No. l Hard-SepIember 81; ON
track, S1.06@1 .O7. No. l Northern-Septem-

CASH WHEAT.
Wheat receipts were 200 cars, and IS were
shipped. Inspection of new wheat were
264 cars the previous "a hours. and graded
% No. hard. l03 No. northern, 70 No. 2
northern, 8 No. 3, 8 rejected and 81 no
grade. The large number of no grade was
due to the early threshing after the rains.
Old wheat was in good demand for local mill
ing, with offerings rather scarce and prices
held high compared with new of the same
grades. The demand for new was a little
slow excepting at concessions from the
previous days figures. Grades below No. 1
northern and no grades had TO go at lower
figures as claimed by most receivers and
sellers. c <s.-e.- I
