Theso rondy, tis shown by the Hoard of Trade statomont of ast week, etrricd nearly one-half of ll the flour abioped Enst from this olty during tint week. It appears tut tho lending mills at Miuneapolls have made contracts with tho Commerelat ty which rene ovor tho Grand ‘Trunk and Erie, at a vory low rate. flow low tho rate was ls tot definitly known, although i 1a the Roneral option that # rato of 10 -conts per 100 pounts or less hos been mute, which | Is ive conts teas thin tho prevailing rates. It is now claimed that the rate: at whieh tho flour was shippod was inch below 10 cents per 100, und it 1s uesorted by suinu of the Vanderbilt peuple that thoy bave positive evidence that a rate of Heonts per brrel, which is cquatte seven and a halt vents per 100 ponnds has been made, Although tho Vandorbilt poo plo einined 9 fow diye ago thut shoy would tuko nu notice of the cut by tie Grand Trunk, yot it ia quite evident that thoy have changed tholr minds, and that thoy do not mont to nllow the Grand ‘Trunk aud Eric to get away with all this business. Mr. HB. Ledyard, Genorn! Sinnagor of the Michigan Contral, ure rived in this vity yestorduy, and tls visit no doubt hud somo cunncetion with this matter, for, shortly tor bia arrival bere, the Vanderbitt “roads eontrauted for a good dont of flour, and It 1s telfoved that the rites thoy mudo wore as low: ts those made by the Grand. ‘Trunt. .‘Uhis week's stutomont, It Is oluimod, will tunke uw better showing fn flour abtpemanta bythe Vanderbilt roads, and thore will be no such Bropoudaraues of shipments over tho Grand Trunk. ‘Tho Vanderbiit roads havo vo doubtdeelded to mect any rates nade Ly thelr adversurlos, und will take tho business at whatevor rutos thoy van wot it.
