Eveninq Grain Letter.

Chicago, Feb. Wheat: Open
ing prices were unchanger tob
higher and during the very dull ses-
sion, in which quotations showed an
extreme variation of II C per bushel,
the tone of the market was fairly
steady considering yesterdays adj
n New buying power was lack
ing. as shorts covered freely yesterday
and while the predicted cold weather
took place over the winter wheat belt,
no enthusiasm was apparent as a re-
suit of the same. In fact, south
western markets were inclined to
trend easier with no demand report
for cash offerings except on the basis
Of yesterdays prices in most markets.
Kansas City stating that the demand
there was noticeably slack, while re-
ceipts were liberal. We in no way
change our opinion regarding values,
for with a continuance of the present
primzAy movement, and the dfsin-
clination of both millers and exporters
10 come into the market, coupled with
the very small volume of outside
speculative interest, is seems rather
remote proposition to attempt to adj
vance values.
Corn: The market ruled fairly
steady for the most of yesterdays adj
vance being maintained. The volume
of trade, however, was materially
smaller, indicating that shorts have
satisfied their requirements to a
great extent. Cash prices were I'M
changed. Further bill incentives were
apparently not forthcoming and the
cash inquiry as a whole was a gain
very small.
oats: The volume of trade in the
speculative market is too small to
comment on. Cash prices were steady.

Saw Ril WIN Pass.

A well informed travelling man, at
the New Columbia hotel this morning,
said that the best information from
the Legislature was that the bill
amending the Alderman act of 1909,
limiting the number Of saloons to
one for every 500 population, will
easily pass the senate and the house.
The amendment compels an actual re-
duction where the number now ex-
ceeds the limit provided in the Alder
bill which provided that the num-
Der in existence at the time Of the
approval of the bill, but Of course that
number could not be increased. IL
the amended bill passes it will put
hundreds of saloons in Minnesota out
Of business after the next licensing
period after the approval Of the law.

If the theory upon which these IN
