The Nearer Option a Little Too
Erratic for the Average
Small-Lot Man.
Wheat Rather Quiet To-day, the
Local Crowd Waiting for
Chicago to Move.
Some Outside Milling Inquiry in
the Local Cash Wheat
Market.

Minneapolis Chamber Of Commerce, Jan.
27-Quiet steadiness characterized the
wheat market thru the early part OF the
session. Little came in the way OF dis
turbing news, and there was lighter
trade in all markets. A great many little
traders who were shaken out Of their
holdings on the recent heavy breaks, but
are still bulls at heart, came back into
the market. But they did not buy back
their May. They went largely into July in
stead If May wheat Is worth soc in
Chicago, July in Chicago was certainly
worth SIC, they argued, even allowing for
the fact that winter wheat crop affects
July delivery. For Minneapolis the same
argument was applied, and those who
went over into July took their new posi-
ton on the theory that If Minneapolis
wheat is going to be worth 81 In May,
the bulls claim then wheat in July
will certainly be worth no less. for there
will be no new crop spring wheat for de-
livery to affect the Minneapolis July OPP
ton. ..-..,
The later news was rather bullish on
the whole. The weather in Argentine is
bad again, receipts are running light, and
1t Is cold over the southwest. where. de-
spite the snow covering some damage is
feared. Minneapolis had only 1873 cars
against 324 a year ago. Duluth % against
%, and Chicago 16 against IS. Kansas
city received $4,000 bu against 124, 900,
and st. Louis $4,000 against $1,000. Min
neapolis elo>ator stocks have increased by
10000 bu so far on the week. IN
Chicago reported $4,000 bushels No. 1
northern sold at 3Mc under May. r.
Primary receipts were $4,000 bushels
against $4,000, and shipments were $780,
900 against 153,0O0 bushels. Wheat and
flour clearances were $4,000 bushels.
The weather map showed light SHOWS
in the Dakotas, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois.
Indiana and Ohio. Temperatures are low
everywhere, but it has moderated some
what in the southwest.
The forecast is as follows: Kansas
Snow tlurres and warmer. Illinois, In
diana. Missouri. Michigan. Wisconsin,
Minnesota and IoWa-Snow tlurries anc
warmer. DakotaS--Fair and colder to-
morrow. %
May closed at 1885 @ssAc, July at SIG
s71sc and September at 76Ac.
- A few outside millers turned up in the
rash market and this had good effect
There was little wheat in any way, and
when the local buyers saw the outside
men they were quick to pay full curren,
figures. The result was cash market
more satisfactory generally than for some
time.

WHEAT MARKET NERVOUS, - BULLS CON-
troll CoRN-oATs FIRM.

troll CoRN-OATS FIRM.
Chicago, jan 27.-An active commission house
demand with some Of the buying credited to the
leading long, caused an advance of nearly a
cent in the price Of May wheat to-day. Offer
ings were quite liberal on the upturn however.
and reaction followed. The opening was easier
on selling by local traders. due to lower cables
se%c. shortly after the opening the market
started upward on small scattered demand
with lessened offerings The price advanced
easily until 9Osac was reached. At that figure
offerings became quite liberal and the price
declined to 9OAc. The market was extremely
nervous and prices fuctuated easily either way
on the least demand offerings. Minneapolis
Duluth and Chicago reported receipts of 900
cars, against 43O cars last week and 31S cars
year ago.
The feature in trading the latter part of the
session the activity in the July delivery: the
volume of business in May, being comparatively
small The buying of July was Of an influential
character and the price at one time rose to
S2% @S%c.
Provision interests however, were active sell
ers and the market reacted later. Commission
houses were liberal sellers of May the last half
hour and the price declined to S9Ac. The close
was weak and 1sc lower at S9as MS91ac. July
closed a shade lower at s1a 9s1kc.
