Higher foreign markets, an estimate or

looks as though that country would need liberal

the factors. The big mills at Minneapolis were
bidding 312 over September for cash wheat
to arrive. Kansas City reported cash wheat in
big demand at 1c to &c higher. while st. Louis
reported cash in good demand. with Missouri
millers going to Kansas City for supplies
Minneapolis millers asserted that they had sold
