Flour-The feeling among local dealers
was very firm, most millers asking the same
price as yesterday, but apparently not
anxious to sell. The sharp rise in wheat
Saturday brought i'll great many inquiries
about flour to-day, but owing to the trmness
of millers sales were generally small. The
situation was about the same on foreign
and domestic business; buyers conservative
in meeting the advance and were only sorting
up little. If the rise in wheat holds, it is
likely that millers will try to get even better
figures than they are asking now. Patents,
