MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Wheat opened firm yesterday on better
foreign markets. Cables first quoted firm,
and second Liverpool quoted l2d higher. The
demand was good from shorts that failed to
go in Saturday, and they filed up at about 1c
advance yesterday. After call price had
been reached there was some hesitation,
caused by the sales against the calls, but as
the figure paid went above that price early in
the day, confidence seemed to be inspired
that this time the late Tuesday record for the
last three weeks, would be broken by rise
above it. Total receipts at the four principal
spring wheat points since Aug. l. the begin
ming of the crop year foot up: Minneap-
oils. 296,560 bu; Duluth, 94.645 bu;

FREIGHT EAST BOUND.
Comparisons of Interest and Fig
ures That Talk.

CHICAGO, Aug. 10.-East bound ship
ments of freight by rail last week, in
Guiding everything except live stock.
aggregated AZ, 675 tons, an increase of
3,O61 tons as compared with the week
previous, and decrease of 10.770 tons
as compared with the same period last
year. These figures do not reflect the
actual gain in east bound tonnage as a
whole, for the freight sent forward by
the lake lines during the week amounted
to 109,504 tons, an increase of
31.S15 tons over the preceding
week. This gain is largely due
to the order sent out by the
trunk line executive committee that
all east bound rates must be restored,
not later than Aug. II, to the basis
agreed upon at the beginning of the
season. To be sure, the order was not
promulgated until last Saturday, but
it has been known for a week that it
was coming, and the vigilant shipper is
anxious to do as much business as posi-
bic before the rates go up. If the order
is generally Obeyed by the lake and
rail lines, the roads out of Chicago will
stand a chance of getting their legiti-
mate share of the traffic after the 18th,
and they are looking forward to that
date as the turning point in what has
thus far been very dnll year for them

British Grain Trade.

LONDON, Aug 1O.-The Mark Lane Ex-
press, in it's weekly review of the British
grain trade, says: A lack of dry heat has
caused the harvest TO be late. but in some
cases it has been unfavorably affected. The
next fortnight however, is the critical peri
cd for the failure or success of the crops.
English wheat has been in slow sale at $50
39s for red and 4O@41s for ordinary white.
Many of the exchanges are almost empty,
and business has been extremely limit
ed Foreign wheat advanced slightly:
In spring grain the trade was in favor of
lentils and rye were stronger To-day Eng
lish wheat was so scarce as to be practically
unobtainable. In foreign wheat there was
small advance for spot Russian wheat was
stiff1y supported. Samples of American red
winter wheat were received to-day by post
and were eagerly scanned, as large surplus
of that quality of wheat is expected and has
greatly affected the markets. Good milling
is usually shown. Flour dull. The scarcity
of barley prevented decline i'll the price OF
that cereal, but the market could not be
called firm.

The market continues in good shape. La

continue well in hand. Jobbers are more
