Unsatisfactory Grading At
Duluth. 4.

From Yesterdays Pioneer Press. y
w. F. Steele, the Kidder county
farmer, arrived in St. Paul yesterday
from Duluth, whittier he went to in
vest,gate the subject of grading wheat.
Mr.. Steele was incensed and expressed
himself as determined to erect an ele-
vator Of his own on Lake Superior.
His latest grievance was that Of seven
cars of. wheat, raised from the same
feld-and that field 4 level one--two
cars were graded ''No. l." two "No. g."
and three " rejected" Smut was al
legged az the cause of the low grades,
and this; Mr. Steele AYERS could not he,
as, if five cars were smutty, the other
two must'have been. He took to Du-
luth affdavits from two of his farmers.
NJ. D. Mullix and H. B. Barnaby,
which set forth. that the wheat was
alike>in the seven cars. These affida-
Wits he showed 70 Messrs: O1mstead &
Munger at Duluth, but did not get
much satisfaction, since they claimed
if mistake had been made it was too
late now to rectify it, his seven car
loads being already mixed in the bins
with other wheat. Mr.. Steele is firmly
convinced that 4 money making ring
exists, with Buffalo as its most eastern
portion. He points to the pertinent
fact that whereas No. hard is worth
fully Is cents more per bushel than
No. 2 (soft), the closing prices on
Tuesday evening were: No. ! hard, at
Duluth, 70 cents: No. 2 soft, at Chicago
77b cents, or but l 3 cents difference.
The difference IN transportation cost
between Duluth and Buffalo and Chi
cago and Buffalo. is less than 2 cents.
In short, according to Mr.. steele's fig
ures, by the Duluth system Duluth,
No. ! hard and Chicago No. 2 soft
would be worth about the same in
Buffalo. As everybody knows, they
very far from equal in value, and Mr..
Steele is Therefore satisfied that the
ring makes from Z to 10 cents per
bushel on the wheat they grade SO low
at Duluth. :, a@i @..r~. II. .5|

A newspaper says that the price Of a
bsshei of wheat will buy but six loaves
Of bread, and then inquiries how many
loapes Of bread a bushcl of wheat will
make. We answer at least thirty loayes,
and by economy thirty-six. Amy one can
figure the profit. Another paper COM
ments on the fact that -four il nearly as
high in the local markets with wheat at
SO cents per bushel as it WAS whom wheat
was 81 per uushel. Here is another in
teresting problem: Two and a quarter
bushels Of 'heat (at IS cents per buahel,
&14G will produce 100 pounds Of -four,
which sells at $3.50. Here is a profit Of
81 % besides the bran and shorts, which
more than pays for grinding. But the
bread bakers largely discount this profit.

F, Pioneer Press: CEedu]ous 'individu.
ais have long taken stock in the reports
and rumors that St. Paul's nnderpinning
was honeycombed wifi cores and sub,
terranean passages. Especially was this
believed to be so in theca Of Carver's
cave, under Dayton's bluff, which was
said to extend to the st.. Paul, Harvester
works. Last Sunday, headed by ?. r,
Boeringer, a party of four or five visited
this cave, .ascertained that Its entire
length is not over 1903 feet, ;:and that it is
nothing but a rather. large hole in the
aide Of the bluff: Mr. Bg?!eeringer has ex.
plored the cave opposite Minea's grocery
store in West ST.: Paul, which is com
posed of two divisions -one t,1rnihg and

PHILADELPHIA May 2l-In the Methodist
confidence fraternal dispatches from the
Presbyterians at Saratoga and Bishop Cheney
of the Reformed Episcopal church were read
and answered.
The report of the committee on temper
perance urges people to use their influence to
Danish the social glass; urges the formation
of Juvenile temperance societies in Sunday
schools; that there shall be one temperance
lesson each quarter in the Sunday school
series; that the state legislatures be requested
to introduce instruction as to the use of
| alcohol in state universities and public
schools; declare that the liquor-traffic, which
is the chief source of Widespread in
| temperance, is the most gigantic evil
of theday. The committee recommended the
| formation of conference of temperance So
cieties in all the annual conferences. A COM
plete legal prohibition of the liquor traffic, it
says, is the duty of tile civil government; the
the people ought not to allow themselves to
be controlled by party organizations managed
in the interests of the liquor traffic It was
adopted.
Announcement of the election of the fol-
| lowing gentlemen was made: Editor Chris
tian Advocate, New York, Rev. D. NJ
Buckley; Northwestern Christian Advocate,

Christian Advocate, Buffalo, Rev, DR.. Fry;

mittee on Sabbath observance, deprecating
all forms of labor on that day, was adopted
unanimously.

Fruit.
Geneseo News,

Should there fall no blighting frost,
which is not likely TO happen so late in
the season, there will be world of fruit
this summer. We do not remember to
have ever seen the fruit trees and fruit
bearing shubbery so perfectly loaded
down and smothered in blossoms as they
are this year. 1t is pity that there is
not canning factory here to utilize this
ocean of fruit. Wherever canning fac
tories have been established, they have
invariably paid. The wholesale grocery
houses of Chicago stand ready to contract
at good prices for all the stuff the can
ming factories can produce. There can
be no question about disposing of the
capital is that it is too timid. 1t would rath
product. The trouble with Geneseo
erbe loaned out for some nervy and enter
prising community to use in building up
their town. We shouldt be a bit surpris-
ing if some of the capital that is now
building up is Kewanee our capital
1t is no more than possible; it is even
probable. There should be sorghum
sugar works and q first class canning fac
tory in operation in this city within q
year. We hope there will, We want to
take some stock in both of them. That's
the sort of spirit that will build up a town
It's q poor sort of spirit that perpetually
squeezcs town dry, and never puts any
thing into it.

Henry Oliver to Morrison, chairman of the
ways and means committee, criticising the
bin introduced by Hewitt, signed by Hewitt,
addressed to Oliver This letter was fabrica-
ton. He was wholly ignorant of the
author until he opened his mail and found a
letter from the editor of The Pittsburg Globe,
who said he would publish it as burlesque on
divers letter to Morrison. O'Neill of Penn
sylvania, attempted to defend Oliver, but
was drowned out by demands for the regular
order. Committees were then called for re-
ports and considerable number made and
placed on the calendar.
The senate amendments to the Indian ap-
preparation bill were -concurred in and
Ellis, Holman and Ryan appointed conferees
on the part of the house. The senate amend
ments to the shipping bill were non-con-

ton case of English vs. Peelle, from the
Seventh Indiana district, and the report of
the majority, recommending that the con-
testant be seated, was read.
