ures auring tne past zt nours. un tne
board of trade bid and ask prices for
October were unchanged, but He ad
vance waa bid for November and De
cember delivery.
Barley was fractionally lower In San
Francisco today, and a decline of 6c
a cental was bid for October on the
board of trade. However, one sale of
2,000 sacks of cash stuff was sold today
on the board at $27 a ton, or $1.36 a
cental, which is the top figure bid yes
terday. The mDlfeed situation is very firm,
and another advance in values here is
likely. A small rise is today quoted .on
shorts in San Pranalsco. .
Export flour values are being cut
somewhat In order to induce sales. Some
transactions during the nast dar or so
have been made as low as $3.60, while
tne top notcn is but 10c higher than
that. While millers sre willing to cut a
fraction or two off their export prices,
the local situation remains verv firm.
The late advance on the sound placed
uui mansei on a oar witn Portland, nut
another advance will likely occur in
patents here, which would force the
Puret sound millers to a still hlirhr
figure.
