Flour-The sales of -four for prompt de-
livery were fair. but no great amount was re-
ported for long future. Even at present
quotations there are millers here that would
not like to make liberal contracts sixty days
ahead. Most of them have more or less
wheat saved up, but as they are all believers
in the ultimate result do not want to dispose
OF its products without profit. They are
all trying to get in possession of as much
milling stock as they can while it is going,
and 1t is that that is crowding prices above
all other points east of this city. December
