MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
CYlaEAber ofCOmlnerce.

The wheat market was a little con-
trary. opening lower than Tuesdays
close. and almost Immediately turned
strong. scoring &c advance for July
in the space of few minutes. The
sudden strength was the cause of a
general scamper to cover among the
shorts, and very active market up TO
IL a. m. From that hour up to noon the
market was very dull and witho ut feat
ure. The cause for the early rally was
undoubtedly due to the receipt of out
side orders to buy. The country trade
north and west of US was evidently
very much scared as to the result of the
prevailing hot, dry weather, and has
tened to take in its short lines aud
buy for investment.
