FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The following mills were running
yesterday: Phoenix, Washburn A, and c,
Anchor, Palisade, Pillsbury A and B, Colum-
bia, Cataract, ST. Anthony, Crown Roller.
Holly, Standard Northwestern, Minneapolis,
The added daily output of the twenty mills
grinding yesterday will probably aggregate
27.4OO bbls Flour moved very slowly. its ac-
tivity being further retarded by the weakness
in wheat and Saturdays decline. MfllerS
were generally asking about the same prices
as few days ago, but in some instances 1t
was told they had yielded to solicitations Of
buyers to grant moderate concessions to cor
respond with the drop in grain. NomlnallS
prices were nearly unchanged, while really
there was probably very little done excepting
OH little lower basis. In some cases the
late forward made sales have been filed, and
such mills output will have 10 be provided
for by current business, and without an early
rally in wheat reductions in prices OF flour
will be forced by competition. Patents.
