Harris. Gates & ". say: While the prices Of
wheat here were about the same Saturday. as
week ago. the situation seems to have grown
stronger during the week. Unreasonable weather
continued on the continent, export sales were
fairly large, Duluth found a good market for
their wheat, other markets gained on ours, and
there was not much talk of manipulation and
more about the legitimate value of wheat. The
prospect for winter wheat continues high.
Watson from New y ork: Hear of no accept
ances this morning, but bids come in higher and
there Is good prospect for further export
business to-day. sas$9 5&s
