MINNEAPOLIS. March 13.@Slowly,
but surely, the binding Irvine trust is
tightening its coils about the farmers,
and already the effect of it is seen in
Minneapolis, where most of the Irvine
in stock has been bought up for the
trust and now it is in the Minneapolis
warehouse, and where the price has
already advanced materially.
An agent of the Dakota Farmers
Alliance, which last year got Irvine
direct from the factories, was sent east
to contract for the years supply. He
discovered that the whole out
put had been bought up by the
trust; further, he discovered that
the Irvine which last. year could
be bought for cents per pound
would cost 25 cents this year. The only
remaining plaQ of the farmers is to
boycott the trust and this they seem in
clined to do. The Minneapolis Irvine
dealers are in the same fix as the
farmers. A young man dressed as a
frontier farmer came in here and
bought up all the old Irvine in the
hands of the dealers and it was dis
covered too late that he was the agent
of the trust, but the Irvine had been
sold and the local dealers are now
kicking, while 900, goo balls of the
Irvine are packed away. If the farmers
get no Irvine it is likely to have a bad
effect on the wheat crop, as that cereal
cannot be harvested in good condi
ton without the use of tWine'

unnatural relations with her at inter

Jones and Betting were arrested I'M
mediately. Betting admitted that he
had been intimate with the girl; and
declared that 1t was with the fathers
consent. Both were held in bail for d
further hearing, which was set for to

year there were 329, 2SS acres planted
to fax in the territory, and il it is once
demonstrated that q good quality OF
binding Irvine can be made from this
fibre, there viii be no trouble in pur-
chasing all the raw material necessary
to supply the home demand. In Chi
cago there is a difference of opinion
among local dealers, although some of
them declare that no trust or corner
has been organized. A member of one
Arm. who recently returned from an
inspection OF the eastern market9says
that the present situation has grown
out of the law of supply and demand.
His view is that for two years buyers
have been conservative, consequently
stocks have not kept up. Suddenly it
is discovered that the supply is made
quate, consequently prices increase.
The amount of hemp in store for the
present season was 10000 pounds
more than last year, while the demand
was for I60, 600 more, making short
| age of 40. 600 pounds. When this dis
cOvery was made all the world went to
the Manila islands and Mexico, the
chief hemp producing countries and the
| holders of hemp in those places es-
capped the golden. harvest which the far
mers accuse the manufacturers of
Chicago of having secured. The
sisal of Mexican fibre costs twelve and
| half cents pound, while the MANILA
costs fourteen and three fourths co i'm
porters. Unoer these circumstances
| this dealer contends that farmers can
not expect to to buy Irvine for twelve
and half to fifteen cents. Several
other firms express the same opinion.
All the hemp in sight, they say, Is sold
for delivery by August 1sJ and there is
no prospect for relief until new crop
| ia harvested
