WHO WILL BE HER e.
Something About the Millers' Con-
ventiOn of Tomorrow.

Some thing About the Millers' Con.
vention of Tomorrow.
The Millers' National association con-
vention will begin in Minneapolis to-
morrow morning. The sessions will be
held in Harmonic hall, and present in
dications point to the conclusion that
this will be one of the most successful
conventions of representatives of the
flour trade ever held in this country.
There are but very few enrolled men,
beri of the Millers' association who
have not signified their intention to be
present, while the friends of the organ
ization will not be represented by a
small number by any means. About
400 acceptanceS of the invitations to the
convention have already been received,
and, on this basis, it, is estimated that
the number present will fall but little
short of 700. 1t is certain that large del
egations of millers will come from
New York, st. Louis. Boston,
ester, N. Y. Besides being millers,
nearly all of these visitors will be rep
resentatiyes of the leading business Or
CARNATIONS in the country, many of
them well known in the trade circles of
the country as among.the most enter
prislng and energetic to be found any
where. Moreover, among the visitors
will be found representatives of such
bodies as the Boston chamber of COM
merce, the New York produce exchange,
the Milwaukee chamber of commerce,
the Duluth board of trade. and the Chi
cagO, Philadelphia, Toledo, st. Louis,
and other trade organizations. Besides
flour and grain men, the city will be
"a llQn nnAp fA lntQrtQIn nImhlr 0f
mill furnishers. The Old country, too,
will be represented. Flour dealers from
England will join with their American
brethren in discussing business affairs.

erie Franchise, leading French trade
