FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-Fhe flour market was In
stronger position this morning with the
higher wheat market. The latter was
based on the late change in weather,
with possible damage to winter wheat,
where snow melted i'll the rains yester-
day Foreign inquiry for flour was re-
ported larger in some instances. although
it is not by any means satisfactory to
millerS who want to sell to it. Buying
of that character has been slow, until
the absorption of low-priced -four,
by the domestic trade, has filled the
latter with more flour than it had few
weeks ago. The local trade is working
along between fresh sales and old
orders, and is getting out the usual
quantity. Shipments, 81 ,45S bbls.
| Quoted at S3.65@4 for first patents;
S3.50G13.65 for second patents; $3.50
| @2.45 for fancy and export bakers !;
| 81 30Gl.45 for low grades in bags, in
Guiding red dog. The added daily out
put of mills grinding yesterday will
probably aggregate 29.700 bbls.

was steady at S11.50@l2 ton in bulk
and loaded in cars. shorts S12. 50(013 in
bulk. for common. Fine shorts and
