CHICAGO, Nov.9, 1s7s.-Wheat has ruled unsettled
since our last, but the market has displayed stub
born and unyelding spirit and has been slow to move
IN either direction. The sluggishness which has SO
long characterized corn to be overcoming the
wheat trade. A clique of local operators who so
bravery contested the downward of values last
month, appear to have deserted the "long side and
Eastern operators who reported heavy holders of
December nave been somewhat disconnected by
tendency to decline here in face of higher cables and
advancing markets on the seaboard. For the season
OF the year our stock has grown to such gigantic
proportions, and receipts giving no promise of an
early relief with scarcely any shipping demand for
no. 2, we are weighted down. Late advices from
spring wheat districts indicate large receipts at the
country stations. The weather has been highly fa-
vorable for hreshng and delivering, and it now APP
pears reasonably certain that will go into winter
quarters with over 100000 of No. q One hears
much Of the usual advance incident to the close of
Navigation, and 1t appears that Notwithstanding the
TACT all precedents have proven falacous during the
past season, there are legion of operators who ex
ect the winter rise and are prepared for it even
now. The disappointment of the mass, is the rule
not the exception of this trade and incident to the
close of navigation if we have the rise common to
past seasons, the exception will prevail. While it
does not appear the part OF business prudence be
found heavily short of wheat the basis of 82c We
are disposed to strongly combat the theory that be-
cause in years past has proven an investment emf
nentiy safe to the persistent holder, therefore re-
CARELESS of the situation and the general paralysis of
trade it is the part of business prudence to be found
with large lines of wheat prepared for rise. The
Ciass O1 THEORISTS seem not TO the
lesson taught by the values of almost every other
commodity in commerce, especially the hog
product The situation at present appears to u.s. one
OF growing adversely to the holder. Receipts at the
Western primary markets for the week 1921 900

the matter was understood no citizen OF
Minneapolis would object to the passage of
the ordinance. The Minneapolis 6 st. Louis
road did not object to other roads coming
into the city. They wanted all the roads
that could come. But he thought it the duty
of the council to pass this ordinance,
which was not Objectionable in any sense,
and had been carefully drawn by the able
city attorney. The only question was wheth-
or this railroad, built and owned by Mime
apolis parties, should have the privilege of
crossing two streets of the city. That was
all there was of it.
Gen. Washburn, president of the III. & st.
L. railway, then advocated the passage Of
the ordinance.
Aid. Walsh moved as a substitute that
both the ordinance and the protest be re-
ferred to the committee on railroads for fur
ther consideration.
MIR. Walsh gave in clear and explicit
manner reasons for wanting further time on
this matter.
The motion of Aid. Walsh was lost.
The question was then on the adoption of
the motion to suspend the rules and the roll
being called, there were eight yeas and five
nays, as follows:
Yeas-Carrows, Camp, Gale. Morse, Mel
son, Smith, Snyder, Woodlands.
Nayg-Bendeke, Haugan, Watt, Walsh,
Mr.. President--5.
And SO the motion to suspend was lost
and the ordinance went over under the
rules.
The council then adjourned until Friday
evening.

reception of Nine. Breslau and Mr.. Clifford
very cordial and enthusiastic. Tho per-
Torrance was good, excellent so far as the
leading roles were concerned, though it were
only merciful to remain silent as to the re.

If Mr.. Murray is doing no other GOOD
(Which the GLOBE is not prepared to admit
his excellent Judgment in selecting artists
for the Metropolitan troupe, is educating the
amusement lovers of Minneapolis to look
with eyes of criticism upon the temporary

Beautiful Art Display.

Our old friend everybody's friend-Mr.
B. Scott, of the Philadelphia academy of
art, is with US once again with the most
beautiful display of oil paintings ever open
ed for exhibition in this city. Mr.. Scott is
not stranger to Minneapolis, having in
years past made annual pilgrimages to this
city with beautiful displays of artistic pro-
ductions. For four years past he has given
Minneapolis the go-bye, but now makes
amends in the magnificent display which he
opens for free exhibition this morning in
Wagner's block, the room recently occu-
pied by Joe Hawes' boot and shoe
store. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday
next this fine collection will be sold at auc-
ton to the highest bidders for cash. Any
who are undecided as to the worth of Mr..
Scott's paintings, have only to APP
peal to any of our old citizens,
who in years past have patronized him.
At any rate he extends cordial invitation
to all to visit the improvised art gallery and
look their fill at the artistic beauties, with
out money and without price.
The terms of the sale are as follows: All
sums under 500, cash; over $500, sixty
days; over 5000, ninety days; over $500,
four or six months, with 6 per cent. interest
added

great distance above Wilkinson's Land
ing, a few mornings since. Our inform
ant says that neighbor Of his in that
portion Of orr county told him that he
saw It, and thinks il wonderful thing.
He really believes that il was that huge
serpent seen ut various points along the
Mississippi river during the past few
months The animal was ugly looking,
its head and mouth being tremendous,
the latter being something less than the
mouth Of cave. The fact is, it was an
animal that he should have dreaded to
encounter on water or land, We are
not giving this rs true, but simply state
il rs it was told to us, and advise our
readers 20 consider il pretty lishy. Dur
ing the past few months several such
stories have found their way into me-
tropolitan journals, and no doubt, many
who pcrtsed them placed considerable
confidence in the same, believing them
