MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Wheat Reaches the Turning Point
and Starts Upward.

With wheat opening at NC up yes,
terday morning, the general sentiment
was that the turning point had been
reached. There was some outside bust,
ness and shorts were covering. The
chief offerings were the wheat bought
Wednesday at low point, Spectators
being careful to secure a little profit.
But wants were heavier than offerings.
as no one appeared willing to sell
short, and the advance from the open,
ing was steady until an advance of a
cent over Wednesdays close was Sc,
cured. The markets then eased off and
Steadfed at about g. half a. cent above
the opening price.
Trade in cash wheat was heavy
Most arrivals of l Northern were ap,
piled on sales previously made to ar,
rive The balance went at &c over
September price with an occasional
sale reported fractionally above that
price. Sales to arrive were quite heavy
at spot price. No. 8 freely offered
and weak. Some thin No. sold as low
as SOC, while some choice cars brought
