a serious decline, and while the market was
easier the break was not particularly OF a
serious character. The opening was about

CASH WHEAT.
The posted receipts of wheat yesterday
were IS cars, Shipments, 4S cars. The de-
mand from local millers for wheat was less
active and buyers for outside milling were
also less urgent in requests. A few cars were
taken by the latter, and buyers for several
local mills took few cars, but most OF them
appeared to be moderately supplied. and
seemed to feel that it might be possible to
buy at cheaper rates to-day, or when they
might need the grain for immediate use.
was in better form. Low grades were not
selling any better, and altogether, the day
was called dull in the sample wheat market.
FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The added daily output OF the mills
grinding yesterday will, probably aggregate
10, 200 bbls. The inquiry for bakers flours
was of most satisfactory character If
high grade patents met with equal demand
there would be little to complain of in that
direction. But the higher grades are moving
faster than they were, and promise to be 60
ing faster soon. The urgency of request for
bakers would take them for several months
forward if millers would sell SO far ahead.
