Twelve vessels were reported Tuesday's advices from Duluth to have gone that day for ore, rather than for wheat at four cents; The possibilities of a wheat blockade may ae figured out from this state of things at the opening of the week; 8,2,000,000 bushels at Detroit, Duluth and Chicago, und upwards of 5.000,000 bushels at Buffalo- making 37,000,000 bushels in all to move forward to New York; at New York 19,000,000 bushels, with capacity of 26,000,000 bushels, anda'Ciir- rent-'shipiuent abtoad of about half the amount received, Under these conditions ttito initUlla of another week might see York calling halt.
