FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-Flour was dull and, if pushed to
sale on the market, would have been lower
perhaps, in sympathy with wheat that was
on during the forenoon. Buying was fair
mp to the average this season Activity has
not been brisk this summer, excepting upon
few occasions. Still, more flour has been
MADE IN the Northwest than usual. and it is
wen wei, sold off Bakers is yet slow. The added
daily output Of the mills grinding today will
probably aggregate 53,70) bbls. shipments,
$3.50 bbls. Quoted at S4@l4. 40 for first pat
ents; S3.NOi. Ua for second patents; 81 $50
5l5 tor fancy and export bakers; 81 .3o@
80 for low grades. in bags, including red
dog.
Bran and Shorts-Minstuff is we'll held, and
owing to cheap freight rates to the East
prices have been obtained recently that were
above the summers average. Most of the
production goes now well to the East, which
requires sacked stuff to fill. and brings $3.50
(9ll Tor bran and Sl1.25Dl L.. 70 for shorts. with
bulk lots ranging as quoted. Shipments, 797

Corn-Lower, as the speculative brisSness
OF the preceding day hau dropped off. Fears
OF frost, that worked upon the minds of
shorts, forcing them to cover. were less act.
I've Yesterday. Beside, there was a general
weakness running through the other grain
markets, each affecting the other against
anything like firmness, causing break in
the morning i'll general markets for future
months. The supply of sample corn was
light and demand good Sales were cars

OatS-Oats for September and for the more
deferred futures were dull, and declined

enced by that situation i'll the purchase of

Hay-Hay markets were steady. Very good
grade of wild hay comes in from Minnesota
this season. The swamps were left out in
getting hay and the grass cut was generally
cut On higher ground than usual. giving
more OF general upland character to the aver
age offerings. Only now and then car of
timothy hay offered and that is nominal i'll
prices; The market is strong, with supply
