MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Active Trade In Grain With Prices
Higher.

There was an active trade in speculative
wheat, with prices higher and the market
strong. The opening was about half-cent
higher, in sympathy with higher cables and
reports from other markets. But the crowd
appeared disposed to sell short at the ad-
vance and the price held steady until the noon
hour when those parties who previously sold
short came into the market as buyers, CIV
ing the market a second upturn for the day.
There was good local demand for cash
wheat. Elevator people were in the market
of cent premium over September prices.
