MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Wheat Opened Good, But a Reaction
Soon Set In.

The opening was lower on large receipts
posted In the northwest and an expectation
OF large increase in the visible supply. But
at the break of about cent from Saturday s
Closing there occurred some pretty fair buy
ing which lifted the market about a half
cent before the close of the first half Of the
noon hour. The visible statement was dis
appointment to those who had previously
sold and on its posting there was tendency
to buy back the wheat. The approaching
government report, which is expected to be
bullish, gave the market considerable strength.
