A Very Uncertain Market With
Quick Up-and-Dow Price
Changes.

MINNEAPOLIS Chamber Of Commerce,
April 27,-Frosts in Kansas and very lignt
northwestern receipts made sellers !lttle
cautious and put a f1rmer tone INTO wheat
at the opening For all that 1t was I'M
possible to advance prices more tnan a
fraction and with heavy selling coming in
soon sharp break followed May went
down around S9Ac but rallied again 70
eOAc While the early market showed
NO tendency to advance much, 1t was very
stubborn against Decline and enough new
buying came in to make it look ike lndl-
cation of the reaction now overdue. Yet
the market was nervous and tricky ana
hard to read, and every one was NIUE
afraid of it. Winnipeg had Thermometer
ranging as high as IS and reported con-
stantly improving conditions FOR seeding
which, reports said, will probably begin
ynuch earlier than was thought possible
fortnight ago. The northwest had good
weather report in general, and looking
over the country from end to end tnere
was nothing bullish In sight aside from
what has been seer right along, unless II
were the decrease here which was quite
an item. Minneapolis stocks falling off
410,000 blu so far on the week. The Mis-
souri, crop report was rather bulllsh but
had no important effect. Yesterdays ex-
port demand was another thing TO put
a stop to pressure on the market, as the
trade figured that on any further decline
heavy export business might result, in
which case reaction in price would come
quickly. Against this there was drag
cling tone abroad. and a Broomhal cable
to the effect that continued bull1sh news
from America would be necessary TO hold
up the Liverpool market
Minneapolis received IS cars, against "a,
Duluth s. against II, and Chicago II,
against ST. Kansas City had $4,000 blu,
against 35,OOO and ST. Louis 5000 bu,
against A, 900.
Wheat and flour clearances were lo9'oOO
bushels. Primary receipts were $4,000
bushels against 31S,O00 and shipments
were ITS, 600 against 247, 000
The market was very cratic after moor
and was inclined to move either way or
moderate pressure. The local milling sit
uation shows improvement and Is likely
ito improve more if wheat remains strong
