GRAIN MARKET
THE MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.
Today witnessed another weak mar
ket, the sixth day of the decline and the
feeling weaker THANH has been any time
yet. There seems to be absolutely no
support to the market and while the
news continues strong no one has any
faith in prices and all are looking for a
still further decline. September wheat
opened at 59Ac, sold slowly down to
1914 @523sc, reacted q fraction and closed
at 5S1z@5sssc, a loss Of &c for the day.
Gables were steady to a fraction lower
on the decline. =
Clearances show some increase, 271 900
bu from the four Atlantic ports and for
four days 1,155,0 900 hu. Primary receipts,
455, 900 bu, against $4,000 bu last year.
Local receipts are increasing rapidly
304 cars today against 1873 cars for the
Same day last year. There is a good
and while most of the No. went at Sep
TENDER prices some cars brought a frac-
ton more.

FEED AND MEAL. 8
The market has steadied. Millers gem
the East Millers are holding firm and
declined farther than the break in the
raw materials have warranted. Buyers
are still hesitating, however, and trade is
of a hand to mouth character. Quota
tions for car lots are as follows: Ground
feed, $14; corn meal, $14; and bolted meal
in wood, per BIOL, 81. X
BRAN, AND SHORTS.
Trade continues easy, although there
is some intination of a better feeling in
the East. Millers are holding firm and
buyers are holding off. On goods for ship
ment Is days buyers and sellers are about
SOC apart, but on spot stuff buyers take
hold fairly well at quotations.
HAY.
Receipts are little more liberal today
but the demand is somewhat improved.
Prices show a little Improvement, a few
more cars selling at as high as IS. Where
the hay comes on particularly easily ac-
cessable roads, soc more can sometimes
be realized. Fancy upland, 50; choice do,
$7@7.50.
Offerings again small today, but only q
little Is wanted. No. 3 is quoted at SIC.
No. 3 to arrive will bring about that price,
also. but buyers are scarce and no de-
pendence can be placed on the market.
Feed ntllers will buy nothing to arrive
but when a, car Of spot is offered it is
generally wanted at the above price.
A car Of ear corn was in and offered at
361hc without buyers. Up to a late hour
no bid had been made on this car.
