MAY WHEAT CLOSED FIRM AND fiIGfERAT 741s7
In the EARLY Trading the Bears
Forced It Down to q 1-2c but

Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce.. Dec. f.
Trading began this morning at the Chamber of
commerce with, conditions as to outside conm,l-
n1c1tion not very much improved over yesterday.
me telegraph companies had concentrated their
eHorts upon the public service wires and the
WIRES serving the chamber direct, with the
result that the quotations from Chicago and
olhef leading markets were posted on the board.
But the private wires We're still down and the
ticker service irregular and very uncertain and
there was not line of gossip or statistical mat
Ter to be had. Some long distance telephone
business was carried on, but the service not
all that could be desired and tho accommodate ton
necessarily limited. Still with the. Chicago
wheat figures to give evidence Of sentiment on
the outside, traders were less inclined to hest.
tate and business more active than yester-
day.
May wheat opened here at 1915 q 1850 and sold
directly at 7343c, dip of 7sc from the high
point at the opening yesterday. Support came
out promptly and the market stuck at 731ac, re-
acting later to 7"M WT37sc. There were $40
ears In Minneapolis against 375 last year, but
Duluth fell off again. showing 1874 against 1926,
so that the northwest had 724 cars in all
against lol last year. gain of only 23 cars.
Local stocks are increasing at the ratio indicated
at the beginning Of the week and the gain to
this time is l 900, coo bu, with day yet
to be added.
Liverpool opened unchanged and &c lower
on second cables, and at the close was unchanged
to I'd higher.
Reports from the seaboard began coming in
later and there was every thing to Indicate that
clearances would be in the neighborhood of
l,OUO,oOO bu. This started buying in moderate
way aud put May wheat to 741sc. July sold
at The Chicago houses with Argentine CORE
spondents reported very unsettled weather in that
country, with heavy rains general.
The market strong near the close, May

THE FLOUR MARKET
THE TONE REMAINS FIRM BUT NEW BUsI-
NESS IS VERY LIGHT.

Business has dropped off considerably and
this morning it was difficult to find miller who
would admit that the volume of new business
being entered is satisfactory. The reports from
day to day are a little misleading for the rea-
son that the large output and heavy shipments
represent in good part rush orders, many of
them placed conditional upon shipment before the
closing of navigation. But future business is
light and the foreign inquiry very light. There
is quiet ruling. sales on the whole are
not heavy. and after the rush to get flour out
before the higher rates become effective next
week the outlook is for continued quiet mar
ket with probably increased business until
after the holidays
The price tendency meanwhile is firm, partly
because millers are firm in their views anyway,
and partly us Il counter feeling to the reduction
to-day in millers' quotations for millstuffs.
