TEEEGRAPHIC MARKET LETTER
Minneapolis, Feb. 15. heat started
rather firm this morning on the unex-
pected firmness displayed at Liver
pool in face Of our decline yesterday.
The short element, however, hesi-s
tated to cover their lines and found
that any offerings were picked UP. very
readily. Receipts here and Duluth
about the same as a year ago. There
are excessive rains on the Pacific
coast which will probably bring dam
age reports from that section on this
account. Shows have fallen heavily

crowd take hold there will be no 40
trouble to advance prices sharply
n Oats are a trifle firmer today on
moderate receipts and good buying by
shorts. The outside trade, " seems.

New York, Feb. Stocks We're
rather unsettled at the opening all

fuenced by the different versions of
the bank statement predicted, and rhe
nnouncement that the fractions would
in all probability pass into the hands
Of the Interlrban company. This Is
undoubtedly the reason for the new
Brooklyn bond issue, and shows that
onsolidation will have a most fav-
orable result in values. The public
will await this with much interest and
in the meantime should not only buy
Metropolitan Manhattan but take hold Oh
