FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flaur-Market Record-There is nothing
yet inthe condition of the flour market diff
ferent from the dizziness that has existed fsre
several weeks. A few small wants were suprs
Piled to-day. Millers, some time since, came
to the conclusion there was no excuse for
pushing sales, for the flour is not wanted.
1t has not been question OF prices SO much
as question of demand at any price. The
country stocked up long ago and the stock is
nowhere near exhaustion. Foreigners were
not bidding and the millers were scarcely
looking that way for relief. The cut
ting down of productions is now where the re-
lief is expected to come from. Patents sacks

steadily firm. with a very good demand at

Corn-Fairly firm for good, old stock at SO

new selling at 35M37c.
Oats-Met a fair request at about 27@,29e
for good retail stock in cars on track. Nice
heavy white were held above and light
