MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, JAN 8.-The local wheat
market opened weak again today and ruled
weak and nervous during the greater part
OF the morning session. The weakness at
the opening was caused by the tone Of first
cables received and the continued weakness
The decline of full cent at 10 a. m. en-
countered number of stop loss orders which
let loose quantity Of long wheat causing
another drop of nearly a cent before II
O'Clock, when May wheat touched rs 1-16c
AT this point the market rallied a little with
Shorts the principal buyers. The news of the
day was rather meager, with one new feature
IN the wheat situation, viz. 1t is said to
be the prospect that California NAV become
an importer Of wheat before another crop is
raised light stocks and continued export de-
mand being relied upon to bring this about
Advices today that $50 900 bu of Utah wheat
had already been contracted for by California
operators. ClcaranCeS from the four chief
Atlantic ports were large, being BAT 600 bu of

Jority OF the trade are now on the fence. The
recent break has completely unsettled pre-
conceived opinions about the higher Drices

to postpone dates. They are beginning tn
consider the relative values of other grains

wheat at home and abroad.

GRAIN GOSSIP.

Gossip by private wire to c. H. g. Smith
& Co, st. Paul, members of New York stock
exchange and Chicago board Of trade:
There is nothing new to report concerning
the movement Of winter wheat. The recent
decline in leading markets has had little
or no effect on prices at country points, mill
ers paying all the grain will stand sooner than
allow it to be shipped to points of accumu-
lation. Domestic flour prices are held firm
and some improvement in demand is reported
from the South. High water in the Missis-
sippi and Missouri and tributary river val
area Of winter wheat.

FOREIGN FINANCIAL

NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-Evening Posts Lon
don financial cablegram: Miserable weather
and the lack of public support depressed the
stock markets today. The only feature was a
rise of points in Bank Of England stock on
expectations OF increased profits for the past
year, as the result of recent loans by the
American eagles for last autumn. Americans
were steady Uruguay securities were fiat,
and mines dull. Spanish exchange on London
shows marked improvement. An important
large deal in Turkish stocks is rumored be-
tween Paris and London bank. If true,
the price at which the French institution has
bought reflects favorably on Turkish pros
poets. In Paris the market was firm, and in
Berlin steady.
