MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.

MINNEAPOLIS, April 12.-Creamery but
ter is weaker, but all other grades are steady.
Extra creameries and frsts declined Zee, and
were weak at the decline. There is a good
call for seconds and thirds at unchanged
prices Receipts of the two latter grades
are light and the market is in fair condi-
ton. Fine makes of daires are being alb
sorbed quickly by retailers, and receipts are
sufficiently light to prevent a decline In
prices. Dairy seconds are trihe easy, as
there Is a large quantity upon the market
and the only outlet is packing stock. Roll
and print is dull and ladies strong at quota
tons. Packing stock is quiet.
Eggs are in heavy demand, but liberal buy
ing by Jobbers and grocers prevents lower
prices. There is a moderate shipping de-
mand.
Live poultry Is strong and chickens are nc
higher. Turkeys are firm and selling well.
Dressed stock is steady and movement fair.

big Gordon OF police was necessary al
the theatre doors TO check the rush. and
thousands Of people were turned away
long before the service hour. The police
estimated the crowd at 12, 900 people. but
others say ~ went several thousand
over that number. There was some in
terest on the part of many as to whether
the revivalist would refer TO Robert
lngersoll. who was to speak, and did
speak, I'm the evening in the same the
atre. But Mr.. Jones ignored Mr.. Inger-
soil, and the latter did the same toward
the revivaligts who are In this city. Mr..
Jones sermon was In his usual charac-
tcristic manner. and was truly what he
termed IL, "A plain talk to those who
cannot find time TO help others out OF
their degraded condition"
