advising of what "Hutch'' may do III
putting up prices or that Fairbank holds
on to his longs with grim and savage
| vengeance. but they are too stale to
wheat operators as easily as water
would from ducks back.
An offer to sell wheat to an outside
miller brought the following response
to-day:
MAYBE your Minneapolis boomers
can pay fancy prices and sell their flour
at profit, but we cannot, and prefer to
let wheat alone when we can see no
money in it for milling. From all re-
ports from the East they will be still
sicker up there before they dispose of
all the fonr they have piled up. With
good crop prospect we believe in lower
| prices, especially at your city, regard
less of whether there is much wheat to
| come in or not.
| The opening for May was about &c
above July, though May was nominal at
| first, but later there were changes from
| May to July at &c premium on the early
| future. The opening was at 90$4c May,
| 9012c July, with prices steadily tending
| down to 90c at about 10 o'clock The
board voted to adjourn over tomorrow,
and that left little disposition to have
| open trades 60 over a holiday. The
| smaller demand for cash wheat had a
somewhat depressing effect on the mar
| ket for futures. There were no outside
| orders to speak of, and the day ended
| fiat.
Owing to the adjournment of the
chamber there will be no Market Record
| issued tomorrow.
An old time dizziness prevailed the
sample market to-day from beginning
| to end, and the amount of grain sold
| was smaller than for several days. Buy
| ers are disposed to take advantage of
| the holidays and put off buying until
| the first of next week, when four days.
accumulations are expected to bring
| lower prices. Saturdays session is eX-
| pected to be dull one also. Prices of
| all grades of milling wheat were shaded
to induce buying, but local millers held
off and outsiders were doing very little.

| until noon were 81 bushel. Receipts

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINs.
Market Record: Flour-The follow
ing mills were running to-day: Pills
bury A and B, Phoenix, Anchor. Wash
burn b and G, Petit, PalSade, Minnea-
polls, Humboldt, Crown. Roller, North
western and st. Anthony. The added
daily capacity of the Is mills grinding
amounts to 24,709 bbls, but the out put
for to-day will probably not exceed 49,
760 bbls.
tically unchanged. A fair amount went
into distribution, but sales, perhaps,
hardly equaled the days out put.
There was no improvement in prices,
and little demand for patents to go to
the larger Atlantic cities, the stocks
there being chiefly owned by millers to
be drawn upon as needed. Business
was steady for the interior. No amount
of cutting in prices would induce flour
buyers to load up, and there appears to
be no way to dispose of the stock faster
than consumers clear it away.
