MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Early Weakness Followed by a
Rally I'm Wheat.

There was a large trade in speculative
wheat, with prices f1uctuating through a wide
large worlds shipments, posted at 100000
bushels. The opening was lower by nearly
a half cent. These figures of the worlds ship
ments were corrected to less than 12.00o.000
and cables turned stronger with buying
orders coming from abroad. The market then
took on a good advance, carrying the price up
something more than cent.

than 1,2s0 cars; But notwithstanding this fact
there was a slight improvement In the demand
for the contract grade and choice No. north
