S- -iry Nothing of Importance in the I NewsA General Evening Up for Over Sunday. Eighteen Loads Manitoba and Macaroni Wheat Sold to Go to Europe. Local Stocks Now 12,428,847 Bu, and Still Increasing Every Day. Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, Jan. 6. Hot much news of a nature to affect wheat came to hand today, but the market was weak and on decline all thru the session and closing prices were near the lo* points. The Liverpool market showed a fair degree of strength, but the hold ers of long stuff were afraid to carry it over Sunday and selling out was the rule. On Monday next the receipts may run hea enough to af fect prices, but there Is about as good a chance that they will run lighter as a result of the re cent storms. The wheat, however, is piling up here, and while there is soje milling demand for the cash stuff, a surplus goes into elevators every day. This is likely to continue until the 15,000,000 bu in store here a jear ago is passed. In fact, it will require only another week or two, at the present rate, for the stocks to measure up to last year. For the week the in crease in local elevator stocks was 1,886,S11 bu, and the total is now 12,428,847. For one day, since making up the table, there is, an increase of 250,000 bu. Minneapolis received 368 cais today against 266 a year ago, and Duluth 66 compared with 53, while Chicago had 44 against 22. Winnipeg received 156 against 64, and the south*est showed comparisons of 43,000 bu and 70,000 at St. Louis and of 32,000 and 13,0k at Kansas City. Export business of 18 loads was reported, lo loads bein gManitoba wheat and S loads maca roni. Toronto reported a big lot of wheat within %c of a working price, and every probabilitj f export business resulting on any further de fine. St. Louis wired that one of the biggest mills there has sold half as much flour so far this month as tiold all last month, and Kansas City seported sales of 50,000 bu wheat to Mexico. The emergency duty due to short crops in Me\ico has te en extended to June 1 next. It is expected that Mexico will have to import 8,000,000 bu wheat. Primary receipts were 6jW?,000 bu against 493,- 000. Clearances 350,000 bu. BroomhaU cabled that Liverpool wheat was easy at the opening with values unchanged There was some disposition to sell owing to weakness in America yesterday. Later the un dertone developed some firmness, ovsing to re ports of continued frosts In Punjib and the fact that offerings of La Plata wheat parcel? had all been withdrawn. March continued un changed while May showed *4d advance. Corn was easy with values %d higher at the Opening. There was an improved demand tor pot and steadier American offerings. The Commercial West says "The country ele vator-stocks are estimated at 20.000,000 bu and elevator managers say receipts will run smaller for a time than they have of late. With the milling consumption of Minneapolis ec.ual to last year, we expect to see the northwest supply and output about balance at the close of the crop year next August, not Including wheat that may be brought in from the outside. "The reports from the southwest at to the. condition of winter whea+ are favorable on the whole, especially In Kansas. There-are a few counties in the extreme west that suffered somewhat from drought, but as yet there is nothing to cause worry. With good rafna in the prlng this wheat will undoubtedly come'forward in good shape. "There will be a considerable per cent of wheat in the northwest carried' over at present prices, there is a percentage of farmers who will not sell under $1 or thereabouts." THE FLOUR MARKET NO CHANGE IN CONDITIONS DEMAND SOMEWHAT BETTER, BUT STILL LIGHT. The maiket shows continuance of the quiet tone, and there is not much new business to report, altho it is true that by comparison with the lorent very light trade business is showing Improvement. Seveial more mills are likely to start up next week. Prices are with out change.

CHICAGO GRAIN BEARISH SENTIMENT PREVAILED EARLY IN THE WHEAT PIT. Chicago, Jan. 6.Despite comparatively firm cables, the wheat market here today was In clined to be weak, because of active selling by commission houses.

Minneapolis Duluth and Chicago reported leceipts of 478 cars, against 623 cars last week, and 341 cars a year ago. Late in the session prices declined still fur ther, May falling to 87%c.^ The slump was due to belief that several large lines of long wheat weie about to be unloaded.

The City of Mexico.John Rocke feller, Jr.. is the president of the Conti nental Mexican Rubber company, which is erectinp a factory at Torrson, Mexi co, to manufacture rubber from the gu&yule plant. I is stated that the factory will cost more than $1,000,000 its wild state, and in ereat abundance all over the plateaus 01 northern Mexi co. Several factories for utilizing the plant have already been established and are turning out large quantities of the product. The Continental Mexican Eubber com pany is leasing all of the guayule lands around Torreon. I has already leased many thousands of acres and is buying all of the guayule offered at $85 a ton. The discovery that this plant has a val ue comes like a bonans* to the owners of the ranches of that part of the coun try. Land which could have been pur chased only a short time ago for 30 to 50 cents an acre has increased many, many fold in value. The land produces as much as two tons of guayule an acre, and the ranchmen are deriving a reve nue of $50 to $70 an acre. The cost of cutting the plants is Small. It is said that the plants will soon grow again after being cut down. FORCED TO IT. Detroit Free Press. "Blank boasts that he lives entirely on a cash system.'

Around 11.49c for March there was some de mand from shorts, and prices rallied 3 or 4 points, but the market showed nervousness in the middle of the morning, and there was comparatively little sign of ball support.
