FARMERS nave been much delayed IN threSh-
ing for few days past by wet weather Rains
on different days driven by adverse Winds
penetrated the wheat stacks on all sides, leav-
ing them too thoroughly soaked TO touch
with safety AS result there is enforced de-
lay in marketing. Farmers turned their at
tention to other pressing farm work and are
not expected TO suffer by the changed wealth
er further than by more or less of damage to
the grain that will necessarily result.
The wheat markets are unsettled They
started December wheat this morning on fall
offerings at a decline of Ice or so, with
considerable later fluctuations to CORE
spond with the general drift of trading.
Cables were easy on free offerings abroad,
with very quiet French country Fmarke.s
and fine weather i'll England. Total receipts

kee, 1885, 29 blu, making total of 81, l75,0S7

The total receipts. of wheat at the four
principal winter wheat points, Toledo, ST.
Louis, Detroit and Kansas City, from July TO
date are 81. 1852, 57 bu, against H. 703, 319 bu i'll
1880, and 100, 9oj bu in 1889.

into store. Prices were in about the same
range as the low sales of Saturday, with
some cars sold early at slightly lower figures
Receipts of wheat for forty-eight hours

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS
Flour-The added daily output or the mills
grinding yesterday will probably aggregate
at 81. 7O05.10 Tor first PATENTS S4G004 ~
for second patents; S40l5O for fancy and
export bakers; S2.25@3 for low grades, in
bags. including red dog. Flour was quiet,
but most millers were enabled, in spite of
general weakness to dispose of their Droduc-
tons at the current range of quotations.
Wheat fell the past week and this morning
flour joining to the extent of dizziness, and
in some instances of actual reduction in
value. II is the high grade that is dull. and
as that covers most of the local productions
the dizziness affects the general flour bust
ness.
Bran and embellishments, 1.047 tons.
Quoted at S).5O010 for bran, SlG@l2 for shorts
and Sl3 .5CO15 Tor middlugs Bran and
shorts went quite steadily all day, with a
shading TO easy prices for shorts. which are
now down well TO 81 Tor the common above
the price of bran. Fine shorts and mid
dlings are 81 to 81 higher than common
shorts. with fair request for all at inside
quotations.
Corn-Receipts. B. $50 bu; shipments, none.
Quoted at 41l2Q04Sl2c on track. Corn is
offering quite as freely as the market will
take care of without dropping to a shipping
basis. There are light supplies, however
only some 10000 bushels in store, that would
be quickly taken il sellers would let it out on
the basis of shipping value. At quotations
few car lots only are wanted for each day.
Oats-Receipts, 23230 bu; shipments 4,150
bu. Quoted at 26Gl?6I2c for No. . white. %
D25I2c for white, and 230o24c for No . and
3. The oats markets are steady, with some
weakness under the weight of a full move
ment of that grain. Speculation was not i'm
portant and prices are mostly made up on
the basis of supply and demand for cash
property. Offerings were quite up to the re-
quest
Rye-Receipts, 1850 hu; shipments, 1,4sO
blu. Quoted at 75Gt76c I. O. b. for No. @
Barley-Receipts, Is, l20 bu shipments z 100
bu; steady at 40055c for poor to fine sam pies
of No. 8. Barley continues TO come along
freely, and choice lots meet with fair request
at their current values, while poorer sam
pies are in slow demand. Bright lots attract
considerable attention from buyers who give
them wide distribution through shippers
sales
Flax-Receipts, 90, 400 bu: shipments, 5,22O
bn. Flax sales are based Oh Zoe off from
the Chicago market
Feed-Millers held at S2O@21; less than
car lots, S2).50@2l50, with cornmeal at S2l
@22.50.
Hay-Receipts. IS tons: shipments, none.
Choice wild quoted at S7.50QS.5); fair wild,
