MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Foreign Cables Add Strength to
Grain Prices.

Gables came at the opening showing large
advances in the prices in Great Britain, cash
wheat continues strong in all the markets,
and the general bullish sentiment that has
prevailed all along was very marked. The
result was that the opening was up about a
cent from Wednesdays close, and from that
sold at 6113c. Then followed a rapid break
to about the closing point in Wednesdays
range.
Larger receipts here and smaller arrivals
at the head of the lakes are the features Of
the cash wheat market at present. On the
present bulge in values this market has not
only the market at the head OF the lakes but
the other markets of the country as WELL
and with the difference between here and Du-
luth narrowed down to point SO much less
than it a fortnight ago.
