*V- & Rain Over the Holiday Strengthen GrainsGood Forecast -It Breaks Them. I Foreign Markets ClosedModern ja Miller Bearish on the Win- fLv ter Wheat. Local Stocks Probably dose to Top Mark for the Season. Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, April 14. The bulls in com and oats btood in for the 3 yellow corn, 44%cbarley 38% to 48c. greater benefit from the weather of yesterday and today, but wheat was affected as well, and altho the market did not spurt up as some ex pected it would after the rains it acted very strong. Thirty inches of snow near Bowdle, S. was one of the first reports in, and it at once suggested general snow and started talk of delay to farm work and late seeding. When full reports were received they showed a general storm over the entire grain country jesterday, and more rains this morning in Min nesota, Wisconsin and Iowa. The storm was moving eastward and when the later morning forecast was posted Minnesota was down for fair weather tomorrow except in the northeast ern part, and fall- weather and warmer to- night was tho prediction for the Dakotas, Ne braska and Kansas. This took the edge oft the market all around, for with good clear weather following the rains, the crop already seeded northwest and the growing winter wheat southwest, ought to come along in good shape, while farm work in localities not yet seeded will not probably be delayed long enough to set back the average of the work materially. The northwest report at 11 a m. read as follows: Fergus Falls, cloudy, cooler snow and sleet about all night. St. Cloud rained and snowed all night now light rain and high north wind now 38 above. Hillsboro, clear, light north west wind, 34 above cool. Mayville, clear, fine snow and rain all day yesterday. Corn stock, cloudy and cold, 83 above rained and snowed till 10 p.m. yesterday. Grand Forks, rained until 8 m. yesterday, now clear with light east wind fine. Fargo, rained and snowed nearly all day: very cloudy this morning. Minneapolis stocks increased 116,139 bu for the official week, which brings the total in to day's report rp to 18,354,600 bu, but for two days since making up the figures there 1B a de crease, estimated at 100,000 bu, and it may be that the official figures of today will mark top for the accumulation. At any rate, there Is less likelihood of further material gains from cow on, and stocks in Minneapolis are probably touching around the top notch today. Receipts here were 357 cars against 184. but today's figures were for a two-day movement. Chicago bad 9 cars for two days against 60 and Duluth's single-day comparison was 82 against 6. Winni peg received 135 against 32, St. Louis received 74,000 bu against 30 000 and Kansas City 82,000 against 50 000. Primary receipts, 549,00 bu against 305,000. Clearances 98 000 bu. The Modern Miller says: "Weather condi tions have been favorable for winter wheat In the principal producing states. Advices since April 1 show the prospects to be excellent and the average condition much better than the April report of the government indicated. With sea sonable weather from now on the report of May 1 should show a higher average condition than that of April 1 Broomhill estimates world's wheat shipments at 8,800,000 bu for the week, of which Europe Is expected to take 8 000 000 Actual shipments last week were 10,832 000 bu and a year ago were 9,280.000 Thero WPIP no cables the foreign mar kets being closed.
