MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 11.-Long before the
opening this morning it was evident that
our local trade members felt better. There
was some anxiety manifested and an i'm
patience Tor $50 a. m to arrive. Early cables
advised OF greater strength in Liverpool and
New York advised that early cables brought
buying orders and acceptances for every
thing offered yesterday. This item put the
operators on the keen edge of expectancy
The opening price was the same as yester-
DAY, but In a very few minutes the price
was full cent over yesterdays close From
that time up to noon the market ruled
strong and active with the tendency to-
wards still higher figures constant. The
news of the day was on the whole hu1Iisb
in tone. Both English and continental houses
were free buyers in New York, ST. Louis re-
ported renewal of milling demand and
Chicago also reported good inquiry from
Eastern millers. The opinion of the trade
regarding the government report is that it
was about what everybody expected and that
al conditions had been fully discounted in
s9.5 per cent Of condition was little better
than expected. December condition. how

any means. OF course 1t Is better for wheat

the condition be maintained or not, its pres
ent position should have no legitimate effect
on nearby futures. The July and more dis
tant futures viii be susceptible to changes

good but considering the whole winter wheat
milling territory is not as brisk as reported
a week ago. Deliveries continue very light
and no fncrtase is promised for January If
then. The demand for -four is only fair ow-
