that his recommendation will carry with

duce large batch of bills of interest to

WHEAT AND BUSINESS.

The Minneapolis Tribune in review
ing' the situation as to wheat and
business for the past week, says:
"Some people who evidently expected
an immediate jump into activity after
the election are disappointed that
business does not revive more rapidly
but whoever heard OF a business re-
vival in the dead of winter? The
opinion of the most experienced bust
ness men is that things are in shape
for very marked business revival in
the spring.
wheat has dragged during the
week and frequently showed signs OF
a material break in price But it is
noticeable that whenever the price OF
the May option in Chicago approached
10 cents there were plenty CT buyers
and a reaction would ensue. The
week closed with the quotation
slightly above so, and with some in-
dicatiu of increased strength. The
weeks exports are again close to 81
000,00 bushels; the reports from
Argentine are still gloomy and speak
of greatly diminished shipments;t here
is a constant demand for cash wheat,
and take it all in all, it looks as if
prices were established pretty firmly
close TO the so cent mark. Whether
they will soar above that will depend
upon the volume of speculation, PeO-
pie are not specializing so much now
now as they used to do, and prices are
more nearly legitimate than is usually
the case. With the strength of the
situation it is difficult TO see how
there is going to be much of break,
while the chapter of accidents are all
in favor of d sharp advance some day
when least expected"
