MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.

December wheat opened Saturday at 500
exactly where 1t closed Friday, but within
very few minutes it had dropped to 79hc.
Then began a auctuating market, but con-
stantly reaching lower level Selling was
heavy, both liquidating long wheat and sell
Ing short. Buying was of a rather poor
character. News was generally bullish, but
the market failing to respond to this news
caused old traders to believe that there are
two sides to the market at these prices. Liv-
erpool wheat closed II lower; corn n lower
but on the lower grades there appeared little
reluctance the part of buyers The reg
ular price for the contract grade was at a cent
premium over December. Following are the
