MINNEAPOLIS MARKET \.
Chamber of Commerce.

Wheat was rather frmer and sold up in
the morning to about l2c higher than
Wednesdays closing prices. There was no
talk of July to speak of, and il was mostly
nominal. September and December were
active, and they divided the business about
equally with the present tendency to drift
into December mainly. A large demand eX-
listed at the Atlantic coast tor export and
nine steamers were chartered at New York
to carry wheat. Cables were firm and French
markets dearer, with Liverpool firm and
weather in England stormy. Weather good
here.
September wheat opened at S4s4c, and
closed at S414c; December opened at S6I2c,
and sold off to Sj34c.

bags, including red dog. The demand for
flour was active. When the bias were nigh
enough to meet sales were easily effected. A
large quantity is contracted to go out later In
the season, which is giving larger employ
ment to the local mills. Some doubt is ex-
pressed of the ability TO furnish it at basis
of about 30s for London delivery Of patents.
If freights do not advance and if old wheat
falls to new wheat prices, the contracts seem
to be all right
