FLOUR MILLS SHUT DOWN.
Low Wheat Rate to Buffalo Too Much
for Northwestern Plants.

a dispatch from Minnea polls yesterday
says: Every flour mill in this city. and
practically all the merchant spring wheat
mills In Minnesota and the northwest, shut
down tonight, and will cease turning out
flour for an indefinite period. This action
has been forced on the millers by the con-
ditions surrounding the manufacture and
sale of flour. For some time owing to the
price of cash wheat. the high freight rate
and the depressed state of the flour mar
kets mills have been operating at loss.
but the browning disadvantage, which has
paralyzed the milling industry throughout
the northwest, was the action today of the
line boats between Duluth and Buffalo in
making wheat rates > cents bushel whil.
the rate on flour is maintained at . cents
a hundred pounds, equivalent to ) 40 cents
a bushel.
The transportation lines have told the.
millers that under the Elkins law there
would be no discrimination in rates against
flour, but the making of this 2-cent rate on
wheat shows that such an assurance was
meaningless. Until freight rates on the.
manufactured product are placed on a
parity With those on the raw material or
until the 2-cent rate wheat is advanced.
the millers will find IL impossible to grind
and unless something occurs to improve the
milling situation the prospects are that the
practically universal shutdown of the mer-
chant spring wheat mills will be indefinite
