Review of Last Weeks Sales and
Condition of the Market.
Minneapolis, MINI, March 1S.-The
! Northwestern Miller gives the flour
output the last week as follows:
| MinneapOlis-The output this week
promises not to exceed 100000. The
-four market last week was far from
encouraging. Sales of MINNEAPOLIS
mill Appropriated $4,000 barrels
while foreigners once or twice showed
some interest raising wheat, but they
would again drop back and stay out
of the market pretty much altogether.
Offers were usually Cd. and Is out of
line. Patent was chiefly sought
| where 1T oil, clear and low grades
not being in favor. Domestic buying
was light and of the hand to mouth
character. Prices are about &c per
barrel lower than last week. Some of
the mills have an improved trade. Ex-
port shipments We're 37,7OO barrels
against $4,000 week before, 66.900 in
1896. and 1920 in 1895. Bran Was
in brisk demand for prompt shipment
but other feeds We're quiet.
Superior-Duluth-Th production
this week was estimated at $4,000 bar
rels. Flour is very dull. mills else
where underselling mills here. Some
-four has been sold for lake shipments
on the basis of a rate of 1872 cents to
New York. Mixed cars of flour and
feed are selling quite well. Foreign
offers were Is below cost and this pre-
cludeS business. Stocks of -four Sat
urday were 41p00 barrels against
$4,000 year agS. Export shipments
wer $500 barrels against 1,420 week
before and 1850 in 1896. Feed is in
active demand, but the mills are not
running enough to take advantage of
it.
Milwaukee-Unsettle wheat made
it difficult for the millerS to do bust
ness last week. it being alternately
fall and an advance in -four prices.
Somewhat more export orders were
booked and grades below patent were
inquired for, some low grade exports
being worked. Domestic trade was
light though higher wheat brought
in shipping directions. Feed was firm
and in good demand, but millers did
not have much to offer.
st. LOuis-An active demand from
the south prevailed through the week.

4 few small sales of special brands

as at First and the Powers
Will Have Clear Sailing.
New York, March 1S.-A dispatch to
the Herald from st. Petersburg says
Frances attitude in not abandon
ing the unity of the Powers is univers-
ally praised here"
The Move Vremya says; 1T has sol
idified the position of the Meline min
istry."
The Cretan question is now looked
upon here as having entirely left the
realm of diplomacy until the Greeks
have retired.
Full powers have been given to the
admiralS. who have the responsible
ty of the settlement of the question
and they are instructed with all the
promptitude possible and with the adj
vice of the cOnsuls on the spot, who
know we'll the subterfuges habitually
practice by the crowds. and will
thus know how to act without hesita-
ton.
Should the Greeks under Col. Vas
sos. desert from the army en- masse
to become volunteers, as 1t has been
said they would, it will not save
them, but merely be looked upon as
again showing that Greece is trlhlng
with the Powers and will be met ac-
cordingly. But any further ruse on
the part of Greece will be very I'M
wise
The feeling here is that matters look
we'll: all the more reliable information
seems to show that war in Greece
has simmered down.

A REJOINDER.
To the Daily Light:

" lAlS 11hlly SASAI.
There is "squib' OF information in
your last issue which is totally mis-
leading. 1t would appear from it as
if the Jewish people of San Antonio
did not observe the "Purim" festival,
or the day of rejoicing" which is
mentioned in the book of Esther. The
fact is Reform Judaism does not look
upon the day as festival in the same
sense as the days of New Year and
Yom Kippur. There are other days
which Reform Judaism has done away
with as for instance the 9th day of
Alb. the date of Jerusalem's destruc-
ton as we believe it was providence
that the Jew should be dispersed
among the nations of the earth in or
der that might be fulfilled the blss-
sing given to Abraham. lin thee shall
be blessed all the nations of the
earth" The Purim festival is one of
those days and is mentioned the Fri
er way which the rabbi may adopt
and think best. In our own temple
there has never been a SO-called Me
gillaS Esther" from which might be
read the story of the incident. We
say STORY" and not history" be-
cause our Judaism does not lay stress
upon the histOricity but upon the ethi-
cal parts of the book. The fact that
my congregation which is q good eX-
ample Of a reform congregation, has
not even the book of Esther in He
brew is sufficient proof that your in
formant is wrong in thinking it neg
ligent on the part of my congregation
not to hold special services for this
Purim festival. In no reform congre-
cation are any services held.
HERMAN J. ELKIN,
Rabi, Bethel.
The Light did not mean to even in
fer that the reform congregation did
not observe Purim. In fact, the men,
ton was made to inform the readers
that the day was not celebrated,
though was remembered.
