MINNEAPOLIS.
Minneapo1is-warm sunshine in place

Minneapolis sunshine in place Of
rains and bettering weather everywhere
with bearish conditions in Europe and
heavy shipments from continental Eu-
rope to Liverpool were depressing factors
in wheat at the opening of the new week.
December was a shade off at 66Nc, and
May easy at 677sc. But this early weak
ness was shaken off after an hour of
trading, and before noon December had
sold up 5s@Ac, striking 66B @67c, while
May gained 1sc, selling up to $3.50. All
markets were more active than on the
closing days of last week. In Chicago the
big professional interests predominate to
such an extent that many ordinary fac
tors. certain to have effect in time, were
persiStently ignored. In the matter of
worlds shipments the figures passed even
the heavy prediction made on Saturday,
and showed up total of IA 5000 bu,
while America made a splendid showing
with 6,S70,00O bu. Russia and the Danu-
bian ports sent out the big total of ZIP
900 bu. Russia shipped 100000 bu, the
with nothing from Australia or Argentine.
The quantity on passage increased by
7S2, 900 bu, making the present total 26,
624 900.
against 1,661,000 bu last year, and
shipped $4,000 bu, against $4,000 bu.
Minneapolis had 637 cars, against 1,444
a4o ia total decrease from last year slr'i-o Of
403 cars. Wheat and flour clearances 270,-
600 bu. Liverpool closed 3sd lower. Re-
ports began coming from the SedDOarQ TO
the effect that there was good export in
quiry, although little actual business, but
in Duluth there were actual sales of 500,-
600 bu to go out.
December wheat closed at 66%c, May
at 6Shc. Good demand ruled in the cash
market. Millers held off a little at first
against the firmer views Of sellers, as
offerings were moderately heavy, but
there was the good Monday morning out
side demand. and this helped the strength
materially No. ranged from 69c to 69ssc,
averaging 69c. No. 2 northern ranged
from 661ac to 67%c. averaging &c. No.
wheat brought Csc to &c for the extreme
range, the top figure only for something
very choice. Rejected sold from 65c down
to 61c, and no grade from 64c down to
55c.

Increase in Visible Supply.

-,
increase of 2,170,000 bushels last year.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
to $4,000. Primary receipts were 1,470,
600 bushels, compared with 1861, 900 bush
luth reported receipts of 9S1 cars, which
with local receipts of 107 cars-only one
of contract grade-made total receipts for
the three points Of 1,08S cars, against
1,451 cars a week ago. and 557 cars last
year.
Corn was weak early on generally SELL
ing as result of improved weather Out
siders were liberal sellers and for a time
the offerings exceeded the demand, but
later on good buying by locals there was
better tone manifested. Realizing lat
er in the session caused reaction and the
close was slightly under Saturdays clos
ing figures. December opened %@Rc
lower, at 4SA to 4S%c. On the bulge the
price advanced to 49%c, but a reaction
followed, and the close was Nc lower, at
48% @48%c. Local receipts were ia cars,
with % contract grade.
Oats and Provisions.
Oats opened easy in sympathy with 9TH
er grains and local Scalpers and commits
sion houses sold freely. Offerings were
readily absorbed, however, and the early
loss was more than regained. The prin-
cipal feature was the scarcity of offer
ings after the opening rush was over.
December opened as@1s to A@asc lower,
at 321s to 32Ac, and sales ranged between
321sc and 327sc, closing a shade lower, at
321ac. Local receipts were 127 cars.
In spite of the lower prices In grains
the provision market was strong, with
heavy demand from brokers and COM
mission houses. Small receipts of hogs
and stronger prices at the yards were also
Strengthening features. January pork
closed zoe higher, at $3.50, January lard
was 15@171c higher, at $500, while ribs
closed 10c higher, at $S.32k.
The estimated receipts for tomorrow
are: Wheat, 200 cars; corn, IT'S cars;

rendition of the music, it may be that
the negotiations for the use of kawala-

EGYPTIAN LOTUS FLOWER.

An Egyptian lotus flower the frst In
Colorado has been grown by R v Pick
EFT of Lakewood. The flower ceased
blooming with the autumn, after having
had six blooms during the summer. Mr.
Pickett Is a member of the State horti-
cultural board, and has wide experience
as a florist and a gardener. He has only
one plant of the lotus. The lotus grows
in water about two feet deep, putting
I'D large round leaf from stem d.
rectly in the center. The leaf is covered
with a velvety nap. which keeps drops
of water from penetrat ng its texture
so that they VIII roll around on its sur
face like drops of quicksilver. The flow
er comes late in the summer, being put
forth on 4 thin stalk projecting about
a foot over the leaf. The flower Is Of
delicate peachblow tint, and has strong
though delicate odor, quite unlike the
perfume of any other flower. 1t IS about
eight inches In diameter, and shaped
somewhat Ike tulip. 1t lasts three
days and then falls TO pieces. They are
rot unknown in the east, but very few
are to be found in the west.-Denrer
