MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber Of Commerce.

The wheat market did not sustain Tuesday
the sharp rise just before the closing. There
was some dizziness in the morning, and lack
of disposition to put in active WORK. Ihe
feeling was weak but there have been so
many surprises for shorts. who sold on sucn
feeling. that they are not only shy OF u now,
but even suspicious of sharp practices some
where or somehow to drive them to cover at
a heavy loss. Cables were quiet and there
was au uncommon derth OF news that bore
upon prices, except indirectly.
December wheat opened at 99l2c, and
closed at 9y3sc.
CASH WHEAT.
The offerings of sample wheat were free
with a fair demand for No. northern, but
the other grades were generally slow. Most
of the No. l northern went early at 9112c, anc
and later in the day when futures got stron-
Ger. Csc was paid for the same class of wheat.
Millers were the principal buyers. Elevator
companies did very little. Receipts of wheat
"a hours were 262 cars; shipments, l5l
cars. Duluth received 1872 cars. The
grain INSPECTION for Tuesday was as fol-

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
FIour-The added daily output of the mills
grinding Yesterday Will probably aggregate
$1,000 barrels. Shipments, 34.34S barrels
Ouoted at S. 1065 80 for first patents; 81 900
5I5 for second patents; 81. % for fancy
and export bakers: 81. 4CG1305 for low grades,
in bags, including red dog.
Flour was steady in demand. and the sales
were fairly satisfactory i'll the amount OF
lo-r- h11f
slow 10 move They are not bought yet very
freely for export, and the others are. which
leaves a larger proportion of patents for the
home markets than OF bakers. The millers
are holding at about the same prices, mostly
quoted at about S5.25 Tor, with some below
and others above it.
Bran and Shorts-Shipments, 1852 tons.
Quoted at $40 250I0.75 for bran, $1525@15. IS
for shorts, and Sl711S for middllngs.
The bran market was not very brisk this
morning, but the price was pretty well held,
and shorts were also held pretty stiff with
some demand The inquiry for both ap-
pesred to be smaller than few days ago,
due perhaps to the changing rates of sacked
stuff 10 Eastern points.
Corn-ReceiptS $3.50 bu; shipments, none.
Quoted at 60G62 on track.
The sentiment was as usual alternately
bulIish and bearish. The Eastern contingent
of the Chicago markets seems to be the scare
man. for that corn market, making it jump
around at a rate too lively for the september
future to leave much freedom from anxiety
to the traders in it. The Chicago crowd cover
and then sell again, while the ghost OF r b.
Rutchinson's late operations hover about the
Dit. Frosts did little general damage to the
unripe corn in the middle belt.
Oats-Receipts, 10, $50 bu; shipments, 1920
blu. Quoted at 2S03lc by sample. Oats set
fled down to a more quiet position the last
few days, and the volume of speculative
transactions is in the reverse order to the
movement of the actual grain. The latter is
now full, while the speculative mill runs
empty. Large arrivals Of cash oats in the
more southern markets have been causes of
depression in prices. When taken to store
the cost of storage is an important matter.
Rye-Reeeipts, $500 bu; shipments. 5000
bu. Quoted at Si9S6c for sample cars OF new
on track.
Spot rye was in good demand, with an
easier opening in the speculative dealings.
