BULL TURN IN WHEAT TO START THE NEW YEAR
Country Buying a Features enti-
ment Changing Both Ways, Chi
cago Especially Mixed.
MAY SOLD TO 70 lac; JULY TO SOC
Market-Newa and Gossip
Of the Trade.

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce, Jan. :,
190a.-The new year trading began In wheat
with strong active market. May sold to I9c
Liverpool was firm, closing ssd higher. st.
Louis sent reports OF good cash business, with
wheat sold to 90 to Texas. There was some
accumulation of country buying orders over
the holiday. Many traders are already talking
OF January rise. Others do not believe
the present statistical position warrants II,
auds look for an advance ultimately, but not
until there has first been something or de-
cline. n
Some OF the Chicago operators. who have
been predicting reactions for week past,
changed over this morning and most OF the
early gossip was bullish. One message said
the Chicago bears have about made up their
minds that 1t is countryman's market at
present. The country bought freely th!S
morning. When realizing begins. sharp re-
action is not unlikely, but there Is no 1nd1-
cation of It as yet, and as these country
speculative trades are well margined. the
bears have concluded that it would take
pretty good break to shake out this element.
Meanwhile there is renewed buying on every
show of weakness. The bears are disposed
to wait and not get In the way OF sentiment
at this time One of the largest Chicago
houses has turred bullsh, another that has
seen bulGsh for weeks turned conservative
this morning. John Cudahy is a bear. The
southwest situation he says, has been greatly
overworked. After investigation he believes
there has not been any such quantity Of
wheat fed to stock in Kansas as Is generally
believed
Primary receipts were $4,000 bushels,
against 446,G00 last year, and shipments 1884,
900 bushels. against 249, 900 bushels. Mime
apolis had 7OS cars, for two, days, against
1875 for day last year. and Duluth 113
against 81. Wheat and -four clearances were
2S9, 900 bushels.
The market was stronger after noon and
May sold to 7sAc, July going to Soc. At the
close May was quoted 1880; July, 79ac.
Chicago closed May at S2&c.
The cash market held firm against heavier
offerings, and demand was good No. north
ern sold at 80 to 1c under May, No. to ar
rive going at lie under. Following the option,
the range was little wider and No. went
from 77%c to 7S1sc, the bulk at 7Sc. No. 2
northern held at 76M@7619c, some No. to
arrive going at TIC. No. wheat had a range
of 73c to 754c, good part Of it going at
T4Ac or better No grade was active. The
extreme range rejected and no grade was
s0c to 731ac.

New York to Watson: The money rate of

gard the time favorable for buying Erie first
and second preferred we'll the common.
Reading is all right, and you can buy Frisco

New York to L. T. SoWle: Notwithstanding
the probabilities of advance in the money
rate, we look for strong and higher stock
market as the big men are getting ready
for bull campaign, and during the present
month all good stocks, in our opinion, will
sell at much higher prices. Erie has now
been taken in hand, and will be moved up.
while further advances in Jersey Central and
Lackawanna may be expected. The Steel

THE FLOUR MARKET

Prices Weal<eT-Market Remains Out
of Line.
At present quotations, which are &c per
barrel lower than Tuesday, the market re-
mains out Of line with foreign views and no
business is obtainable. Domestic buyers con-
tinue doing little aside from supplying their
immediate wants. The fact that large mills
are down at Duluth, and some in the south
west, we'll here, will hold down pro-
duction and tend to tighten flour stocks in
general. Buyers may have to come in later,
but cannot be induced to stock up heavily on
the present price basis.
Shipments for the day were 81, 317 brls.
First patents are quoted $3.95@405; second
patents. $S.s5@3.e5; first clears, s2.S5@2.s5;

PROVISIONS
Chicago Provisions.

Chicago, Jan. 2.-Provisions opened easier
on lower hogs, due to heavy receipts and
lower prices at the yards. Deliveries were
lberal-those in lard being about Is 900
terces. Some very small buying partly over
came this bearish influence and prices began
to react. May pork opened 1Oe to TIC lower
at ST.. 20 to S172212, and sold back to SIT. 256D
17271a; January lard sc to Zoe down at
ss.971s to s9.9212. and steadied around 1896.
