MINNEAPOLlS-Demand for wheat was ac-
ceptable to holders of wheat in car lots to-day
Local mlllers bought most of it, at the same
time they held back when it came to paying the
prices asked. AT one time spot wheat in cars
was higher than May wheat. That was not SO
long ago, either, and in fact it was held that the
nearer May the more premium there ought to
be for the spot grain. Instead of the 1c pre-
MUM they once gotthey are obliged to sell at an
actual discount. Very much OF the wheat ar.
rived now is contracted for and goes straight to
the mills without being offered on Change.
Still there was enough offered to supply all re-
CURED at the price the sellers would take The
sales to elevator people were small. though they
would have taken more at little further de-
cline. Outsiders filled moderate milling re-
quest Closing quotations: No. hard, March,
