that was bid all through the session to !
o'clock, with sellers asking 8SAc and not
much trading in 1t. September went at
about 75c,wi some good sales at that. Au-
There was nothing like constant trading dur.
ing the day, the little business done being at
quite irregular intervals The trouble with
July was that traders were afraid II they SOLD
they might want it, without paying prices
for II that would be entirely, arbitrary. July
closed with large sales at SSc.
The display on the sample tables was fair,
though not as large as usual on Monday, US
the receipts were less than 200 cars. A good
deal of grain has been carried over the past
few days, and buyers found all they wanted
of most every grade. The volume Of orders
from outside points was less than usual also,
and the aggregate of business done was be-
low expectations. few Of the local millers
were picking out few lots OF grain that met
their requirements. but were not taking any
large lines Prices were held at about last
saterday's figures early, but later concessions
were made by sellers in order to move some
lots on which bids were made. Receipts
were ITO cars, and 81 were shipped. Local
stocks decreased 2S5, 1887 bushels and Du-
luth fell off Al, 1927.

Market Record.
Flour-The following mills were running
to-day: Pillsbury A, Phoenix, Petit, Hum
boldt, Palisade. Minneapolis and st. Anthony.
grinding amounts to 1900 bbls, but the
output for to-day will probably not exceed
10000. Distribution was slower, perhaps,
due to declines in wheat the latter part Of
last week; It can hardly be claimed, how
ever, that buyers are waiting for further de-
clines, as prices are now pretty low. cOnSid-
ering the new crop is great way from Sc
curity and the old crop is not very large in
reserve stocks. Still, prices can hardly be
called secure unit. the export basis is reached,
which is some way Off excepting for bak-
ers. Buyers will hardly be induced to do
more than carry very Indifferent stocks the
remainder of the crop year, and while con-
sumption may clear off the surplus little
more rapidly, there is nothing in sight to
lead to expectations Of great activity. Pat
