Excitement in tne Markets.

There was a good deal of excitement in the
markets the latter part of last week, owing in a
great measure to speculation. In Milwaukee,
wheat for September delivery ranged from
$1.22 to$1.25; for October from $l.24to
$l.26. In Chicago September wheat was from
$1.23 to $l.26; October wheat $1.24 to
$1.27; September corn 81, October corn &c;
$1o.42; lard $11.6 to $1l.SO. A larger
speculative business was transacted in grain
and provisions than ever before known in the
history of the trade. It is not expected that
the above quotations will be kept up during
be intensified. which may be the case, until
the bulls are badly gored and retire from the
field.

Tie Mound Builders.

Waupaca Special to Milwaukee Republican.
The Republican correspondent has just re-
turned from an examination of the Indian
mounds at the 'sChain of Lakes" two and
half miles west of Waupaca. There are over
twenty of these ancient works of the mound
builder in the vicinity of the one that was dug
into by Prof. ]. G. Newkirk of Bloomington,
Ind, and Prot. ]. c. Stockton, as telegraphed,
on Friday. The number of bones found by
these two gentlemen is large. The mound
measured thirty-three feet long by fifteen feet
broad, and on the summit of it grew a black
oak rreo ffty-eight inches in circumference
Under this tree, and after four days digging,
the gentlemen came upon the skull Of a human
being. The jaws and teeth were in perfect
condition. In the lower jaw were sixteen teeth
in a state of perfect preservation. The skull,
upon measurement, was found to be the size of
that of a five year old boy, the back of the head
was prominent while the forehead was very re-
treating. A thigh bone was found that
measured similar to that of a man about five
feet eight inches tall. The body was in a sit
ting position with the head to the north. Above
the body, which was directly under the afore-
mentioned tree and surrounded by its roots,
was foundc charcoal. an Indian arrow head and
some other trinkets.

A GREAT IMPROVEMENT.

An Increase in the Capital Stock CT the St.Paul
Harvester WOrks-An Important Addition
to the Manufacturing Interests OF st. Paul
A little more than eight years ago Mr.. e. NJ.
Dean and q few other gentlemen associated
themselves as the st Paul Harvester Works.
The project was attended by all the discourag-
ing circumstances that new enter. rises have to
encounter. The company had to win for its
machines a place and record in the field, in
competition with older and ,wealthier man.
ufacturers. Under the able management
of Mr.. Dean the company has advanced steadi
ly to an assured SUCCESS, and by it's last increase
Of capital stock to $l,OOO,OOO has already
crown to be six times as large as it was orig
inally, and is now sending lis unequalled ma
chimes into the remotest wheat fields and
meadows of the country. The demand for the
machines this season more than absorbed the
entire product of the factory before the season
fairly opened and compelled the corporation to
double the force and run it's work day and
night to meet the demand of the trade. The
machines have made a record in the
field second to ncne, and the trade
has covered q larger territory than ever
made upon the company for machines, and it
is the intention to meet this demand during the
coming year. Special attention will also be
given to the manufacture of their new mower,
which with its center draft and six foot cut, is
sure to super ode. the old style moving ma
chimes that have been so long in use.
This rapid increase of business has COM
PEELED the corporation to enlarge its works.
Contracts have been let for the construction OF
a large brick factory which will quadruple the
manufacturing capacity. The work is already
under way and the building will be ready for
occupancy by W inter. The old factory starts
next week upon the work of the com
ing year. It will be in charge of
Mr.. G. T Corning, the superintendent, assist
ed by Mr.. Heary Brand. These gentlemen
have been associated with the works from the
beginning, and in these departments they have
acquired more than a local reputation.
The increase Of business has also compelled
an enlargement of the office organizlti Mr..
J. q. Miller has resigned his position as secre-
tary and treasurer in order to take charge of
the purchasing department Mr.. W. B. Bend

CORRECTING A MISREPRESENTATION.

The Claim of Agents that Honorably Discharg-
ed soldiers Gan Enter Honlesteads by At
torDeys Without a Residence ana Improve
menfs a Deluslon and a Snare.
To the Editor of the Pioneer Press.
DULUTH, Aug. 13.-FOr the benefit of q
very large class of your readers Iwould re-
quest that you publish the following extract
from a circular issued by the Hon. Commits
sioner OF the general land ofic at Washing
ton, under date of August 9, 1881, and d.
rected to registers and receivers of all United
States land Offices:
"You are further advised that circulars issued
By any attorneys stating that officers and SOL
dlers OF the late war who were honorably dis
charged, etc are entitled to 100 acres of gov
eminent land under the homestead laws, which
can be entered by an agent or attorney for the
soldier are deceptive and false, and are calcu-
lated and intended to impose upon and mis-
lead the persons to whom they are addressed.
You will inform all such persons that actual
residence upon and improvement and ~cultiva-
ton of lands entere ! under the homestead law
is required by soldiers, and that homestead en-
tries made by soldiers without personal resi-
dence and improvement six months after the
filing OF a homestead declaratOry statement are
illegal and fraudulent"
In this connection I would like to quote the
following section from the Revised Statutes Of
the United States:
Section 23O9. Every soldier, sailor. marine.
Otncer or OGher person coming within the pro-
visions of section 1904, may, as well by an
agent as in person, enter upon such homestead
by filing a declaratory statement, as in pre-
emption cases; but such claimant in person
shall within the time prescribed (six months}
make his actual entry, commence settlements
and improvements on the same, and thereafter
fulfil all the requirements Of the law.
The instruction from the general land Office
to local officers for executing the provisions of
this section, are as follows:
Should the party present his declaration
through an agent as authorized by section
23O9, said agent must produce a duly execut-
ed power of attorney from the principal de-
string to make the entry, who will be bound by
the selection his agent may make the same as
though made by himself. Where the party
has failed to make entry within 6 months from
the date of filing, he is not thereby debarred
from making entry of the tract filed for, unless
some adverse right has interviewed; and if SO he
may enter some other tract that is still vacant.
As section 1909 embraces the only provis-
ion in the acts of congress modifying the priv
ileges of the homestead law, for the benefit of
the soldiers and others who served the country
during the late war, whereby the services Of
an agent can be, employed at the inception of
an original homestead entry, it will be clearly
seen, from the above quotations that the only
act an agent can do is simply to file, in a local
Office, the homestead declaratory statement.
