MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Dec. 8.-The local wheat
market opened quite strong this morning in
the face of rather discouraging cables The
trading of the morning session was rather
light, and while prices held well nervous
uncertainty was the chief phase of the stu
alton. The operators practically refuse to
consider the possibilities Of the trade in re-
lation to supply and demand in the early
months of 1898. The latest advices from Eng
land are to the effect that, ASA matter Of fact,
the trade there has made no provision for this
particular period. 1t seems to be vaguely as
stunned that supplies will continue to turn up
at the critical moment, that winter shall pass
and the spring may come but the stream
flows on forever" This condition is reflected
here. Our daily receipts continue to be large.
The trade has been assured time and again
that this large movement would cease, and
as consequence many have lost heart in this
direction. Today, however, a strong demand
for nearby deliveries caused a revulsion Of
speculative feeling, and by noon the market
was really strong at a good advance over
yesterday The news of the day was mixed
In character, but, on the whole, was favorable
to the long side.
