Flour Trade More Active.

Wheat advanced somewhat owing to a
1rmer tone abroad. a better -four trade at the
West and strong cash position.
Some advance in the early business was due
to stronger cables, small receipts at the North
west, an upward tendency of Northwestern
cash prices and increased outside buying. At
a time when the stock at Minneapolis might
be expected TO increase IT. Is decreasing.
Traders were emboldened to buy. Chicago's
sales OF late have been promptly snapped up.
There are strong people. evidently. who be-
liete In the market twithstanding the
dirges emitted by Others. Eastern bulls
hate not been letting go. The car famine
