MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber OF Commerce.

Wheat was lower yesterday morning, deS
pite Steadier cables with some reporting 12d
higher The moderating weather, with wheat
quite we'll protected lately by snow against
the action OF frost. were conditions that re-
lieved some of the late feverishness concern
ing the outcome of the winter wheat plant.
The first tendency was to sell for a reaction
from the hi IN closing Saturday. and break
of s4c was noted. The late market has rested
on actual demand, and while that has been
good for cash wheat il has been intermittent
for future months.
CASH WHEAT.
The sample wheat was slow yesterday. Re
ceipts were large, amounting 10 7!2 cars.
Owing to the large supply buyers waited for
lower prices. Saturday they were willing TO
pay 1L2e premium for No. northern Today
I0DlIac was all they would pay. The weak
ness in futures was in their favor and the
premium On samples was ll2c. Sales OF No.
/ northern were mostly made early at slice.
Some fancy timber wheat brought SlS4c. and
shippers paid little more for an occasional
car that Just suited their wants.
After the break sales were made as low as
sec. Very little was done in No. 2. The lower
grades were slow. but as offerings were not
heavy sellers were firm in their views, though
the prices they obtained on rejected and no
grade were in most instances not satisfactory
TO them.

second patents: s. SOB. Is for fancy and eX
port bakers; 81 30J@2 for low grades i'll bags,
including red dog. Flour was not any better
perhaps in price but in few cases millers
reported larger demand. On the whole the
requirements were inadequate to remove the
production and keep all mills running up to
capacity. I he production has been curtailed
some 10 per cent recently, and yet there is an
accumulation, taking one day with another,
that promises TO continue for the present at
least.

for shorts, and S1201250 for middlngs MIL
stuff was not in the best demand, yet there
was considerable wanted, with the current
production moving to some extent on old
contracts. The market has been steady, with
but little in sight to cause much change I'M
less the demand drops off earlier than eX-
pected on account of the decline in oats and
corn.
