MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 22-The local wheat
market opened weak at &c under yester-
days close because of discouraging cables
and in sympathy with weakness in Chicago
and New York. There was a quick recovery,
however, and by 1915 m. December had
recovered the loss and CSC additional, after
which the market ruled very erratic, but, on
the whole strong up to md-session. The
chief factor in the market at present is the
volume of Northwestern receipts. 1t is
thought that these will be large for the next
sixty days. as is usual at this season Of the
year. In the event of a light movement there
is no doubt but that prices will stifen; on
the other hand, if they increase heavily and
the demand for export remains as it now is
a slight recession in values will result. 1t
is generally believed however, that if a de-
cline does come it will be comparatively light
and only temporary.
The course of the market from 1920 I'D
to nearly noon was both strong and weak
at enc time selling at full &c over the open
ing figure. Sentiment appeared to be on the
bear side for a while, but few buying or
ders soon changed the sentiment. So far as
learned upto noon there was no new export
trade at the seaboard to speak of. One thing
that caused strength was the falling off in
winter wheat receipts. 1t is argued by many
that the big winter wheat movement is rap
idly nearing its close and that from now on
1t will be of moderate proportions, which will

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, Sept 22.-The market for cattle
started strong but soCn turned weak, many of
the plain rough feeders going fully 15c be-
low the values paid for such Monday. A load
of extra prime 1852 steers from
lots went at bettef than s5.25;; bulk of good
to choice beef steers at $4.60@5.20. Feeders
were relatively stronger, except for very
plain lots some branded cattle of extra quail
ity selling at $4.25@4.50. Cows and heifers
also escaped with but little decline, the sup
ply of that class of stock. being comparatively
small. Veal calves held close to the late
range, the bulk selling at S5.75Q6.75. Only
about 200 head of Texas cattle arrived and
such few went about steady, but about 5000
Western range cattle went slowly and values
ranged a point lower for all but extra grades
of feeders. EARLY sales of choice hogs were
about 10c off Tuesdays values, and a good
share of the arrivals sold later at 15c decline.
Packers wanted most of their heavy hogs
close to $3.50, and it took extra quality in
heavy to sell above $405. Choice butchor
few choice bacon pigs sold early at $40, but
later very choice light weights brought 4.35.
Sheep went off rapidly at firm, prices, both
local killers and feeders buying largely. A
flock of nearly 800 mixed Oregon sheep aver
aging 81 lbs went at $S.85, and nearly 400 head
only few pounds heavier sold at $500. Most
of fat mutton stock sold at $3-65@4 and feed
ers brought chiefly at b$3. 60d3a5. Native
lambs sold quickly at strong prices several
choice lots landing at $5.65Q5.15, and most
in heavy supply and SOLD a shade weaker,
many around $40. Receipts-Cattle, 1880;
hogs, 1000; sheep, $4,000. ~

MINNEAPOLIS Sept. 22.-Butter scored an
other advance today and extra creamereS are
now quoted at 191ac. Other grades of cream
cries also show an advance. Light offerings
coupled with an excellent jobbing and some
shipping call in the main responsible for
the advance. Dairy extras are higher and in
big request at the advance Medium and low
grades are cleaning UP satisfactorily at
higher figures. Ladies and packing stock are
firm and higher. Eggs held steady at 111ac.
Current receipts are rather light, but about
equal to present demand. Some handlers are
getting few orders from eastern and west
ern points. Hens are lower but in good de-
mand at the decline. Spring chickens are a
shade easy at SS1ac. Supplies are light and
the whole the live poultry market is in fair
condition. Turkeys are in improved demand
and higher. Ducks and geese rule easy.
