St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1885-06-17

In following these figures ST. Paul, Mime
apOliS and Duluth also reduced their quota
lions to correspond. The consequence of this
condition of the market has been doubt and
uncertainty to such a degree that wheat has
been pretty much left alone, no one here
wishing to take any chances, but all studying
to learn, if possible, when bottom prices are
about to be reached. The mills here in ST..
Paul have been paying for farmers deliver
les little less than quotations on change.
The street receipts have been very small in
deed, and the mills have had but very little
from this source. Receipts and shipments
during the week have been very light and are
as follows: Received, 1886 bu.; shipped,
63,O36, leaving about $50, 900 bu. in store.
About 1900 bu. of oats are in store, 1883 blu.
having been shipped. Trade in flour has been
very good. The st. Paul roller mill is selling
it's different brands at the following reduced
rates. Orange Blossom, $5.35; Red Cross, 81 rs;
Brighton, 81 so; Capital, 81. rs; bakers xxx,
$3.50; Derby, $2.75. The general condition of
the grain market has been that of quietude.
and oats, enough to meet requirements, and
prices have not shown any great fluctuations.
The reason for this is to be traced, in con-
siderable degree, to the fact that the demand
has been very light indeed. Barley has f1uc-
tuated during the week from 1920, but the
demand has not been great. It has stood
nearly all the week at 600. Rye has been I'M
changed at 55c. Ground feed has gone as
low as $780, but most of the time it has been
steady at $3.50. Other grains have been
pretty steady. Hay has suffered the most,
and much of the time has been in light de-
mand. There is better feeling for choice
and fine makes Of butter, with prices a shade
better than they were at the close of the
week The shipping demand is rather better
for fine makes. Most of the desirable stock
has been taken up, and the market is not
loaded as much as it has been. The market
= Ill
favorable for some Improvement. All stock
lacking flavor and color is still slow and does
not show any perceptible change, and can be
bought at former prices, with no inquiry to
speak OF. Diaries are meeting with moderate
sales at quotations
