four times. i could never get used to SO
many big dinners.
AT noon 1 would sit down to what they
call deieuner. That would last until -

same sized hat as when started. When
first exhibited the old phonograph over
there. France made me chevalier of the
Legion of Honor. At the time of the elec-
trieal exhibition they advanced me grade
making me an officer. This summer they
raised the ante again; made me a com.
mandeur. L believe they called it. At al
events itis the highest decoration of the
Legion OF Honor. Over in France they
think great deal of these decorations
great many privileges go with them. The
Minister of Foreign Affairs gave me this
one through Minister Reid, sending a very
nice letter with il. At Mr.. Reid's house
they tried 70 get the ribbon and cross
around my neck but would not have il
there. While was in Europe / also had
the phonograph exhibited before Queer
Marguerite at Venice and the King al
Rome. and he, too. conferred on me the
highest honor of the Legion of Honor.v
Mr. Edison found the electrical wires
underground in London, Paris and Berlin.

Assembly at date not less than fourteen
days nor more than forty days from the
fore, be seen that the Legislature cannot be
called to meet before Nov. z. Should all of

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

The early opening in the wheat market was
weak at about yesterdays closing prices,
and later sold down about 4c. At the de-
cline there was a fair demand, and the mar
ket ruled steady during most of the session.
Liverpool was reported firm with white
wheat I2d dearer since Monday The amount
of wheat on passage was reported at an in
600 BY. The better tone of cables tended to
steady the weak tendency. Reports were
wired that the English visible wheat supply
increased 100000 blu last weak The old
story that Russia raised but 80 per cent of
last years crop was again revived, but had
no sensible effect on the markets. Chicago
expected 307 cars tomorrow, and with large
receipts for the last two days, made their
market weak at the start.
Later there was more disposition to sell
futures and the market declined fraction
in spite of continued good demand for
track wheat. One cause of the weakness
was larger movement Of wheat reported from
farm granaries.
