The advance in speculative markets gave
sellers of milling wheat all opportunity to
ask higher prices for samples again, and No.
/ northern was held for S1.14@1.15, accord
ing to quality. Buyers were not showing
much fear. however, and for the first two
hours there was scarcely any trading. Some
sellers claimed that they were asking no more
than on Monday, but were unable to get bids.

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
FlourThe production of flour here has
dropped down some, but not to the extent
demanded by the late agreement. The rea-
son of it is that the weather is mostexcellent
and there is good flow Of water, both Of
which are expected to chShge to less favor
able conditions shortly, when the output
will probably be small. The sales were small
| for the day, few small orders only to be
| filed. The reduced prices of wheat, buyers
| of flour think, will knock Off something
more from the price of -four. and they were
