bill to open the Standing Rock

North and South Dakota. The
bill as amended reduces the
price paid for school sections
to 81 from $3.50 and provides

THE MARKETS.

The past week has been n of
some activity in the wheat market.
The May option dropped from $l.l28
to $l06a, but by Wednesdays close
had worked back to $l.09a. As we
said last week when the big bulls be-
gin to set a certain figure far in
advance of the present price as the
ultimate destination of future prics s,
it is an almost certain indication they
want to unload some of their holdings.
Such proved to be the fact last week
The statistical situation did not war
rant any such slump in prices, but
Patten, of Chicago, and other big
holders commenced to dump their
stuff on the market in such quantities
that the price could not hold up
against it. But even these men had
to turn and support the market
against their own bear influence in
order to save themselves. At present
price wheat is out of line for export,
but not high,r than we believe our
domestic situation warrants, and this
view is taken by some of the most
prominent grain men of the country.
The receipts are dropping off at a
great rate, being only about half OF
what they were a year ago, which
shows that the big receipts of the
early part of the season have drained
the wheat section of a large part OF
the corp, and which, in our opinion,
justifies the prediction of still higher
prices in the future. As we are now
close to the holiday season We do not
look for very much of an advance un.
til the beginning of the new year.
Barley and oats are both one cent
lower than a week ago, with only a
limited demand for either.
Flax closed Wednesday at S1.44s
in the face of quite liberal receipts.
