The wheat market opened a little
weak yesterday, and for an hour or
so the local talent were at sea. The
quotations OH the board were confined
to the bid and asked prices. After a
severe struggle a,sale was made at Goo
tor May wheat, and by 1890 a. nj. COO
was bid. The latter was a tonic, and
shortly after another 11sc was added to
the "Did" price.

upon the trade by tile railway strike.
One of our largest mills has been
forced to shut down, and many more
are likely to follow because of their in
ability to have supplies transported.
The largest buyer in wheat in this city
has i'll the meantime to hold aloof from
the market. Fortunately for the wheat
trade, supplies are not pressing. All
offerings were we'll taken, but at the
expense of values. No. hard sold at
