nished by Edwards, Wood 6 Co... Grain
Commission Brokers. Chamber Of
Commerce. Minneapolis, $40 Board Of
Trade, Duluth:
Dec. 4.-Last weeks grain market
was quiet and steady until on Friday,
when an advance began, which has
reached &c per bushel for wheat: 3-8c
per bushel fo.. Chicago corn; 3 7-Sc for
Chicago oats.
The news for the week was the same
as it has been: Large primary receipts
of wheat with good cash demand,
small receipts of coarse grains, with a
large demand and advancing prices;
continued dry weather in the South
west. The advance is based on large
buying by the country. continued
drought in the Southwest. and higher
cables. There was a decrease in re.
ceipts on Monday and Tuesday of this
week, with decrease of nearly 5000, 900
bushels in the amount on ocean pass
age, and small deliveries on December
contracts have also helped. An In
crease Of $4,000 bushels in the worlds
visible supply mas been ignored. This
week wheat has shown great strength.
Independent of corn, and has led the
advance. Western primary receipts of
wheat were about 100000 bushels for
the week. Exports were 5.117.000 BUSH
els. According to arsdst,e,et. the worlds
visible supply OF whea. has increased
22,125,000 bushels in the last three
" eeks. Primary receipts from July
to Nov. g. aggregated 144.0OOO00 BUSH
els, and exports for the same time were
12s,00O,C00 bushels. Exports of corn
since July are but 19,25O.00O bushels,
compared with "a. 1873 900 bushels for rhe
same period last year. Receipts of corn
are very small The steady advance in
price signally jastifies all predictions
made In these letters during the past
month. Minneapolis May wheat is now
quoted at rs 5-Sc; May fax, $1.44 1-2;
Chicago May corn and oats, 68 1-2 and
4Sc, respectively. We think wheat high
enough for the present. Advise pur-
chases on any material decline.
