THE MARKETS.

All that can be said of the wheat
situation is that it is holding the
same relative position as for the past
few weeks, with sentiment a trifle
bullish. The price has not material
ly changed since a week ago. Any
marked advance in the immediate
future will have to come through ex.
port demand, but there are none who
are willing to sell futures at anything
less than preeent prices, and very
few at that.
Flax is showing more strenth than
anything else on the market, the clos
ing price Wednesday being S1.29a at
Minneapolis.
Barley Is a little stronger than a
week ago, but the price has advanced
but little. The strength is in the
lighter receipts.
Oats are a little higher
Corn has dropped 3 cents in the
last week and the trade is looking
for a still further decline. New corn
was worth about 81 cents in Mime
apolis Wednesday.
The doubt existing last week on &C.
count of the election then approach
ing seemed to melt away Wednesday
morning and prices all along the line
felt the relief to some extent.
The fax situation is no doubt due
to the demand by shippers WHO are
anxious to get the stuff out by lake
transportation before navigation
closes. THIS is the situation nearly
every season, but shippers take
chances on their cars arriving at the
required time. Last year some we're
"pinched' on Duluth shipments, by
reason of cars delayed in transit.
