THAT WHEAT STEAL.

Director Holmes Tolls the Whole Story Of
the Famous minneapolis Wheat Steal.
MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi, Oct 1.-THE famous
wheat steal case came up il court here
to-day and for the first time the whole
story was told by Director Holmes, of the
Union Elevator. The method Of proceed
ure by which large amount
of wheat, variously estimated at
from $1,000 to $4,000 bushels, was
stolen from the elevator is unique. Mr..
Holmes alleged that the grain broking
firm of D. c. Moak & Co., which recently
failed, were the principals. By collusion
with their book-keeper, VIM. G. Harley,
and the foreman of the elevator, Charles
Mason, cars of wheat were overloaded
and delivered to the firm. The money
realized from the surplus thus dishon-
estly put in the cars was di-
vided among the conspirators The
elevator company discovered that Mason,
the foreman, and Harry Hoicomb, the
ex-foreman. were implicated in the deal.
and succeeded in forcing partial restitu-
ton. Harley and Mason were arrested,
Holcomb escaped while the company was
trying to settle with him. and Moak & Co.
failed. The disclosures are likely to res
suit in further arrests.

HOW THEY WORK.

Chauucey NJ. Depcw's Views ON the Re-
suits to Oar People OF Corners In Wheat
and Provisions.
CHICAGO. Oct. 1S.-1n an interview yes
terday, Chsuncey NJ. Depew expressed tho
opinion that the various corners in bread
stuffs that have been run in Chicago have
done more injury to the American farm
ers than any OF the much bereated
trusts" aud "monnpolies." Corners
have robbed this country of her control
of the markets Of the world. In 1881, the
famous Keene corner forced pri ces so
high that the British manufacturer be-
came thoroughly frightened. He saw
that il was possible for few daring
speculators in this country to put the
price o. food SO high that la
borers would be forced to demand
higher wages, and the margin of profit
or manufactured articles would be wiped
out. England at once set to work to
meet the emergency. Twenty thousand
miles OF railroad were built in India, and
every mile opened up 100 900 acres OF
wheat land. Transportation facilities in
Russia Egypt and other parts OF the
world were greatly improved, the result
being that America can no longer die
tate the price of bread in the markets OF
the world. The loss to the farmers OF
this country attributable to this corner
can hardly be computed. Your corner of
the other day is having and will contiru ue
te have a disastrous effect It has put
the price of wheat in this country higher
than it is In Liverpool, and all export
business has been stopped"

Probability That the Canadians Will Re-
cede From Their Position on the Fisher
les QUESTION:.
NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE World this
morning publishes the following special
dispatch from Toronto, Oat.: 1t is
thought that the Dominion Government
intends to back down on the Fis hery ques-
ton. The Free Press of London, Ont,
which voices the views of Minister OF
Agriculture CARING, takes tho ground
that Canada had better yield. After re-
viewing the question of the transhlpment
of fish in boud, it says: 'sWould it not
be we'll that Canada should waive her
rights under the treaty of 1918, and be
willing, under the altered condition OF
things in respect to carriage by rail. to
permit American fishermen the privilege
of making use of our lines for the pur-
pose of forwarding their legitimate catch
to the general market? We frankly con-
fess that we would be in favor of such a
concession" The editorial conclu1es that
in resisting the American contention
Canada is standing in her own light The
