FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The following mills were running
to-day: Pillsbury Aand B, Phoenix, Anchor,
Washburn and c. Northwestern, st. An
thony Crown Roller and Cataract. The
added capacity of 10 mills grinding amounts
to $4,000 barrels, but the output for today
will probably not exceed IA. 700 barrels. The
market was dull and unchanged, with buyers
taking stocks in a small way for present use
only. There was a small accumulation in
spite of the light output. Sales were mainly
to interior points, as the seaboard gets
cheaper prices from winter wheat mlllers.
The good wheat in the Northwest is getting
mostly under control of q few parties. Pat.
