MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Everything Oyershadoyved by
Northwestern Reports.


The government report, SO far as fig
ures are concerned, was buIlish. but
il has been more than discounted
since the first of the month by wheat
making weather, and this fact is pretty
well understood by the trade. For that
reason the report has little effect, but,
if anything, il has FASTENED the de-

The Prince Is SaSacious.
It has often been remarked that the
Prince of Wales was not unwise in his
day and generation, and an instance
where he showed that he knew how
to improve a commercial opportunity
by distributing a little social patron
age was manifested a short time ago.
A sale of the princes hackneys and
harness horses was TO take place near
his place at Buckingham Thirty-two
hackneys and twenty-five harness
horses were to be offered without re-
serve. The day before the sale the
prince invited a large party to ''dine
and sleep" at Sandringham. The
party consisted almost entirely of pos
sible bidders at his sale. On the day
of the sale he also gave a large Iun-
cheon, presiding himself at the table.
It is needless to say that the sale was
a success and the prices realized all
that could be wished.
