Saturday. December opened at53h@Ac
and sold up to $3.50, down to 53Ac and
closed at 53AMAc bid. Trading was
light and at times there were no orders

Northwestern receipts stand in the way
of any advance, and prices are low
that no one dares sell their wheat short
The few that do run on the slightest in
dication of strength.
The visible increase was larger than
expected, being 2,504000 bu., and the total
visible supply is 27.1OO,O 90 blu less than a
year ago. Duluth increased 2SS,ooo bu;
Minnea polls increased 1898 900 blu.
Primary receipts 1,766,0O blu, against
100000 Blu for the same day last year.
Minneapolis and Duluth receiving 1,23l,-
900 bu of the whole. Clearances fair

Atlantic ports. The English visible de-
creased 55S,0OO blu, and the amount of
wheat on passage increased $4,000 bu
Gables came lower and brought selling
orders.
Local receipts, 1,294 cars, against 705
cars for the corresponding day last year
