MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS. April 13.-The local wheat
market opened fairly steady this morning on
encouraging cables and reports of large
export trade done yesterday, and for the first
half-hour ruled fairly strong, scoring a slight
advance by 20 a. m. New York and Chicago
showed signs of weakening shortly after, and
the local market followed suit and for the
next hour the course of the market was nerv-
Gus and weak, with fluctuations erratic with
in narrow limits. From IL O'Clock up to noon
the market was quiet, with very little trading
done. The news Of the day, on the whole
was bullish in tone. Crop reports were gen.
orally gloomy save those in Michigan and
kentucky. The Kentucky state crop report
for the month puts the present condition of

reported that foreigners were on both sides

MARKET SUMMARY.

CHICAGO, April lS.-Wheat was heavy to-
day, closing at 1bc decline, due to short sell
ing. The export demand showed signs Of wax
ing up and this sustained the market toward
the end. Other markets were dull and weak
chiefly through sympathy with wheat, corn
and oats declining Ac each and provisions
715@2Oc.
In wheat a further advance of Ad at Liv-
erpool, in addition to the 1Ad rise Of the
day before, was disregarded at the opening
because Of conditions prevailing at home.
Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were one of
the domestic features which caused the ignor-
ing Of the Liverpool strength. The two places
referred to reported the receipt of 504 cars
against only 237 the similar day of the week
before and 45S year ago. 1t did not matter
that Minneapolis was offering the inducement
of 11ac premium over July price for wheat
delivered now; that was disregarded and the
mere fact OF the receipts having increased
was about the anly point laid hold
of. Chicago receipts were 10 cars. vessel
cleared for Buffalo with $4,000 bu and another
for Milwaukee with 90 900 bu. May started
from 675sc selling down to 673sc against
yesterdays closing price Of 67BG68c, and aft
er gradually working up to 67Bc it dropped
back under the influence of heavy short sell
ing to 6624 066%c. The short selling was
not all by local operators both st. Louis and
New York operators dispoSing of heavy lines.
Resistance was offered to every decline, the
slight advance Immediately after the opening
was caused by the report that French and
Russian crop prospects were getting worse.
The activity in the -four trade at Mime
apolis was remarkable, and dispatches from
there put the total sales during the last two
days at between IT'S 600 and 200,0 600 bbls, Pills
bury reporting 76 900 bbls sold by him yes
terday. This news, together with the report
from New York that 25 boatloads had been
taken there for export, finally checked the
Decline and during the last hour quite a
steady feeling prevailed. May gradually re-
covered to 6713c, and closed steady at 674sQ
671ac.
Corn ruled quiet and easier. The break in
wheat had some influence, and the market
felt the absence of anxious shorts. yester-
days purchases having apparently filled them
up. Exports were light today, 533, 600 bu be
Ing reported May opened 1sc lower at $500
24c sold between 241sc and 233sc, closed easy
at 2354 @23Bc. Oats were quiet and generally
weak. Bears displayed more nerve than they
have of late and put out considerable lines,
causing a weak market during the morning.
The decline brought out an improved demand
later and the market recovered part OF the
early loss. Seaboard clearings were $4,000
bu Provisions were heavy and lower. Hog
receipts We're smaller than expected, but the
market was affected by the general weakness
