face Of a problem. We could not take
Mrs, Wren into our hearts along with
John, and we could not give John up.
The only thing we could do was to
treat her as cordially as possible This
we tried, but it proved failure. She
was constantly in trouble not only
with us, but with others. Her asso-
ciates were noisy, common people like
herself, and she usually led them by
the nose to make themselves more dis
agreeable than they were naturally.

= Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce, Aug.
4.-Wheat opened nervous and little. un-
settled this morning with the tendency not
very clearly defined. September held for
an hour in the range from 677sc to 67ssc. and
was up and down between these figures on
continued minor changes. On later selling
September dipped to 67Ac. Kansas City and
st. Louis had 504, 900 bu, against 10000 bu
last year, which was confirmation of last
weeks prediction that receipts would be
lighter after the farmers got through the
rush Of first deliveries. The weather was
favorable, barring some hail damage reported
from Iowa, and a heavy rainfall over por-
tions of Nebraska, where it was not needed.
There were no foreign reports, both Liver
pool and London being closed for a holiday.
Trade was fairly active. Chicago said there
was little hesitation there over increasing
talk Of manipulation by Armour. Worlds
shipments for the week were 6,2A,o00 bu,
against 6,26S,0 last week and 1897 900 bu
a year ago. The figures for this week are
without report from India, and nothing
shipped from Australia America shipped
4,3ss,00o bu; Russia, 1,144.0O bu: Argentine,
$4,000, and the Danube, 6S0,000 bu. A de-
crease of 1884, 900 bu on passage brings the
total quantity ahoat down to 2a,384, 900 bu.
The visible increased by 100000 bu, making
the present total 22,971, 900 bu.
Wheat and -four clearances eQualed 27S,000
bu. At primary points receipts were 1,Se6,000
bu, against 1,484,0o0 last year, and shipments
$4,000, against $4,000. Minneapolis had 2o3
cars, against $50, and Duluth I, against 81.
At the close the market broke again, going
to SIC for September. Closing prices: Sep
tember, 67@67hc; December, 66@661sc; May,
6s%c.
The cash market was firm and active.
Monday morning brought the usual outside
inquiry and everything moved satisfactorily.
For No. northern, 6h@7c over September
was the basis, and No. 1 northern went about
2@2Hc over No. 2. No. wheat sold from
1870 to 72hc. Rejected brought CSC to TIC,
