Thinks 1t So.

WASHINGTON, Sept. s.-While tie
state department has received no official
intelligence of the rumored attack by ma
tives on the American consul at Canton,
Assistant Secretary of State Rives said
to-day he saw no reason to doubt the truth
of the statement that there had been a
feud in Canton, growing out of the treaty
trouble. Nothing can be said as to the
details of the affair, he added, but such
things had happened before, and are
likely to happen again.

An Appreciative Notice.

I9WTWIVSH INTVsI
THE CHEYENNE DAILY LEADER has
enlarged from four pages, seven columns,
to an eight page, six column paper. We
are more enthusiastic over this long stride
of TUE LEADER than the editor of THE
LEADER himself could possibly be, As
THE LEADER leads the Wyoming press,
so it is the most thoroughly typical Of
Wyoming itself. 1t has push, pluck and
perseverance in rare degrees, and is mark
eddy able in its conduct. Editorially the
paper combines Western stamina with
Eastern polish. In its vigorous, clean
and deserving growth the Lyre gives THE
LEADER Joy.

Has the sole control in the United States of the Peters Patents, both
as pertaining to Loading Machines and the fluctuations for securing
the load in the shell. The machines ar run by steam and are auto
matte throughout. The wads are of elastic wood felt, perfectly
fabricated. They are cut several sizes larger and compressed into
shell in the act Of loading. The extra size and quality of the wads
especial Smith or Parker loads unnecessary. Each machine has a
regular working capacity of sixty cartridges per minute, and may
even be run at a much greater speed and do good work. Having a
steady and powerful movement, the wads are seated level, and with
proper pressure, while the charges are uniform. The fluctuations
for holding the load are made at the moment of greatest compression
The superiority of this method of fastening over the ordinary crimp
has been proven by searching tests. 1t has been found to improve
pattern, increase penetration and prevent touling of shell chamber
and leading of shoulder. The recoil is greatly diminished, Indeed,
the method of fastening and the whole work of the machine produces
the very perfection of Shotgun Ammunition. The most fatering
testimonials re coming in from all parts of the country. Amateur
and Professional Sportsmen are alike delighted. For sale by

Duluth's Pull on the Wheat Market.
DULUTH A CENTER OF INTEREST

DULUTH A CENTER OF INTERESr.
She Holds 1900, 900 Bushels oG wheat
and Thinks the Country Wants ts
BADLY.
DULurH, MINI, May 1A-Developments In the
wheat situation have been OF an unusually i'm
portant character. and Duluth seems TO be at
tracing more attention than ever before. This is
due TO the fact that the prospects OF winter wheat
are poor, and Duluth, with over 1900. 900 bushels
In store, has nearly one third OF the total visible
supply OF the country. Last week representatives
OF a half dozen leading New York exporting firms
were here, and IL is reported that all or nearly all
have been buying wheat All are eagerly watch
ing the situation, which Is intensified by the fact
that OF the D. 600 900 bushels here one half is held
by carriers and is practically out OF the mark et,
and 100000 bushels OF the remainder is In the
hands OF shippers TO 60 TO New York. The New
YORK men interviewed on the situation all talk
bearish. They say that later reports from the
winter wheat sections than those which were
made the basis OF the late Government crop report
show improvements, and that the prospects In the
northwest for a big yield are excellent. This view
is not taken by any OF the big houses here. The
result Is that there is an unusual demand for
wheat, and orders from the outside seem 10 show
that Duluth holds the key TO the wheat situation
lust now.

them, and has obtained the permission OF the Sem
