The Market.

The weather the past three days has been
freezing cold, with steady wind from the
north Yesterday WAS warmer and thaw
ing, and there is now every indication OF
general break up and warmer weather.
The boats at the landing and the wharf
boats were compelled by the heavy ice run
ming out of the Ohio yesterday and the day
before to suspend work and seek a safe har.
Dor in the Mississippi, giving the levee
dull and deserted appearance.
Business is very quiet but without mate
rial change in prices since our last issue.
FL0UR-This staple is very quiet owing
to the want of river facilities to ship south,
as much ~ anything. Prices are unchang-
ed. Stocks are fair in nearly all grades.

changed Receipts are all taken at quota
tons.

still quoted very dull. Prices are un-
changed.
BRAN-The market continues firm with
a steady demand for all receipts
BUTTER-Choice butter comm 4nds good
prices and ready sale, but should be well
packed. Same grades Of butter poorly

RELIEF FROM THE TELEGRAPH MO.
NOPOLY.

There seems, at last, to be prospect of
the country being relieved of the telegraph
monopoly which has hung like pail on the
interests of business men ever since tele-
graphy has been sufficiently perfected to be
in general use. Previous to the formation
of the Western Union telegraph company
there were several comparatively weak and
disconnected lines, covering various por-
tions of the country. The Western Union
was consolidation of these lines, giving
order and system and through connections,
and withal monopoly. By means of this
consolidation q powerful combination was
formed, which, developing and increasing
with the development of the country, became
very giant, andno rival company has,
heretofore, been able to cope with 30
formidable an adversary. The net
work of Western Union wires covers
the country SO extensively that no wires
less comprehensive can hope to compete
with them. There are local telegraph COM
panies between New York and Philadelphia,
Boston, Washington, ETC., but they are in no
sense competitors with the Western Union,
because they are so limited in their extent.
Before any company can secure sufficient
strength to cover the country the powerful
Western Union comes in and either by com
petition or purchase blots them out.
The recent legislation of Congress au-
thorizing railroad co npanies to do q COM
mercial business over their railroad wires
gives the great telegraph monopoly its first
serious competitor. The telegraph lines are
part of the railroads and cannot be bought

Union Pacific and host of minor roads
have already taken advantage Of the new
legislation. A new telegraph company has
been formed which has purchased the Do

nections, and, with the exception of the
Northwest, covering this country very effect

fected, and by the first of January
next it is predicted that the new organiza-
ton will be co-extensive with the Western
Union. The men at its back represent over
a hundred million dollars, and as there is no
possibility of purchase or consolidation posi-
tive relief seems to be assured.

SIR John Macdonald and Lord Beaconstaeld
London World, July 81
Sir John Macdonald, the Canadian prime
minister, who has just arrived in town. is
likely to create good deal of sensation in
society, for reasons other than any connected
with his mission. The Canadian premier
supplies likeness to Lord Bsaconsfeld
which is almost bewildering n its exacti-
tude. If Sir John, having nearly observed
our premier's dress, were to possess himself
of costume of the same make, and were to
walk into the house of lords, none Of the
doorkeepers would think of stopping him,
while the Marquis of Salisbury might be ex-
pected gently to press the Eand of his dear
friend and inquire after the govt Con-
sciously or unconsciously, Sir John assists
nature with few touches of art. BE wsars
his hair precisely as Lord Beaconsfeld wears
his, or rather as the premier wore his when
he was about eight years younger. His face
is closely shaved, and its whole shape, color
and expression are phenominally like Lord
Beaconsfeld. Nor is the simpilitude con-
fined to physical features. Sir john Mac
donald has many Of the social and political
qualities of Lord Beaconsfeld. He is witty
and graceful in conversation, epigrammic in
parliament and audacious in politics.

The official announcement of the State

is of great interest as showing that st. Paul,

divide the interests, and unite the energies
of the entire State on one fair. The letter
of Col. Adams is in that candid, matter of
fact style peculiar to its author, aud will
carry far more weight with it than the fashy
style of many public men. His long and
active connection with the grange of which

DEwEY's DOWNFALL

Bankruptcy of an Ea- Governor of Wis
cOnsiaa-A Widoav's Estate Swallowed Up
IN tho General Ruth.
MADISON, Wis, July 25. new scandal
in connection with the financial affairs of
ex Gov. Nelson Dewey, Of this State, has
recently come to the surface. It has not yet
got into print, but is an open secret in bust
ness and social circles. II is generally known
that, ten or twelve years ago, Gov. Dewey's
wealth, mostly in real estate, was estimated
at from 100000 to 5000, 900, and previous
to that time, from the period when he occu-
pied the governorship, he was regarded as
one of the solid men, and one of the safest
and most conservative men, financially, in
the western part of the State. He was an
intimate friend of the late Ben. g. Eastman,
who succeeded Orsamus Cole in 1851 as
member of Congress from the Second Wis
1854, when G. q. Washburn was elected from
the same district. Eastman died in the win.
ter of 1856, leaving to his widow snug little
fortune of about $3O, 900, and Gov. Dewey
was either the executor named in the will or
he was appointed administrator Of the estate.
He has occupied this relation to the widow of
the deceased ex-C Congressman since that time.
and it has recently transpired that the estate
was absorbed by him years ago, although.
until this disclosure, he had made regular
returns to her, and had managed to make
payments as from the income Of the estate to
the heirs. A few years ago Gov. Dewey be-
came totally bankrupt, and It appears that
the Eastman estate was also swallowed up
in the catastrophe which he met, 80 that

The moral to be drawn from all this is that
we are not, and never have been, strong
enough to quarrel among ourselves. We
need to unite all Minnesota interests and
form Minnesota anaconda in self defense.
If the present scare, whether wise or unwise,
as shown by the future, results in the forma-
alton Of such an anaconda, it will not have
been without its benefits.
