MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber of Commerce.

Wheat was moving quite lively this morn
ing, with great deal Of May for SALE and
while other places moved up quite easily, at
times the support here for May was not very
good. There were times Of much activity,
with others of Quietness, but altogether a
fair line was put out. After II o'clock the
support was better, and some blocks OF 100
600 bu were snapped up readily at 79lac.
Export clearances were small. put large
movement was told of for tomorrow May was
the feature in most favor with dealers, with
some inquiry for July.

The demand for spot wheat was good, and
good samples for delivery to the mills went
off readily to local millers. The demand for
outside was light and for some lots the move
ments slow, and some difficulty was expert
enced in disposing of them at the stiff prices
asked. On the whole. however. business was
pretty well cleaned up before the close OF the

OLD THEORIES REJECTED.
The Senate Committee on Irriga-
tion Has Ideas of Its Own.

The Senate Committee on Irriga-
tiOn Has Ideas of Its Own.
Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, March 21.-The most
prominent measure which will be re-
ported by the senate committee on irri-
CATION is one which departs from the
theory which has many influential advo-
Gates, that the Typographical survey and
plating of the country is an essential
prerequisite to the photographic or irri
CATION survey. This will be prepared
by Senator Plumb. 1t will contain the
following provisions: First-That all
water on public land shall be inaliena-
bic from the land, and be used for ben
eticial purposes under the laws of the
states where located. Secondhand
there shall be right of access at all
times to this water, and for the purposes
of irrigation. Third-That there
shall be permanent right of
way over all public land to water sup
ply, and that provision to this effect
shall be inserted in all land patents;
fourth, the United States is to exercise
such jurisdiction as it can over inter-
state waters; fifth, it repeats, as far as
arabic land goes, all land laws, eX-
cept the homestead law. It provides
that the unit of land shall beforty acres,
and that the largest disposable tract shall
be 100 acres. The commissioner of
irrigation is to decide for each district
which units shall prevail. His decision
is to be based upon the climate and
products of the district. In the semi
tropical regions the forty-acre unit shall
prevail. In the grain region the unit
may be 100 acres. An engineer force,
under the bureau of irrigation, is to as
certain and survey photographic basins
to segregate arabic lands and define
reservoir sites and principal lines of
distribution by canals.

GENERAL PRODUCE.
For all choice grades of butter the line OF
valuation is well sustained and sellers are in
confident frame of mind. There is no ac-
emulation of such goods, as the receipts are
not equal to the demand for fancy dairy es-
pecially they are quite inadequate, and full
outside prices are obtained when the quality
reaches the required standard. The demand
shows nothing unusual, but coming after so
long period of dullness it creates quite
hopeful feeling. Choice roll and print are in
good demand and steadily held. Fine fresh
creamery is also meeting with a good de-
mand. as are choice jar and tub lots.
Nothing in the way of new features ap-
pears on the cheese market. Trading is
much confined simply to filling local orders
for small amounts. AS regards prices. even
buyers themselves admit the well sustained
position, with no present expectations of
reaction. Exports from New York for last
week were 3, 30S boxes, 1,605 boxes going
direct TO Liverpool.
There was slow market for beans, with
no outlet yet opened for them outside of the
local demand for home consumption.
The potato market is quiet and the feeling
remains about the same, with some uncer-
tainty as TO the future.
The receipts of fresh dressed poultry are

The Pension Bill, Carrying
Near $10O,OOO,OO0, Passed
by the House.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 21.-
Much interest has been excited at the
postoffice department by the action OF
William Dudley Foulke, of Indiana, In
sending out inquiries to presidential
postofIices where changes have occurred
since the 4th of March, 1889, especially
to the poStmasterS who have been re-
moved In speaking of the matter to-
day First Assistant Postmaster General
Clarkson said: 1--WE are receiving let
tiers from newly appointed postmasters
who have been addressed in this way.
The inquiries sent out, IN every instance
that l have seen, show that the case has
been prejudged, and the change made
assumed to be wrong. 1t is evidently
an effort to get statements from re-
moved and disappointed officials for
political use, and some of the letters
show an intention to try and induce the
new pOstmaSterS to make statements OF
defense where no defense is needed.
The pOstmasterS seem to realize that
they have reports to make only to their
superior officers. No political capital
can be made out of these changes. The
president has made no removals except
for cause, for delinquency in official
duties, ineficiency OF service, or Viola-
ton of law. He has refused to make
any changes for partisan reasons.
Changes made for cause have been on
the reports of inspectors, showing de-
mand for the change in the interest OF
the public service"

Financial Operations of the Money
Kings-The General Quo
tati0nS.

CHICAGO, March 21.-Chicago had
big speculative wheat market again TO-
pay. The trading possessed some very
sting features. and the volume OF
business was so large that Individual
transactions were largely lost. The
three most conspicuous operators here
were all buyers. They were Hutchin-
son, Partridge and Cudahy. Partridge,
it is said, bought from 1000, 600 to 2,0O0.-
900 blu. 1t must not be thought the
market was one-sided because of these
three buyers. There was the usual
selling for the proverbial Friday. There
was heavy realizing by houses, profits
ranging from &c to 115c in May wheat.
There was selling by bears to short the
market for down turn after the early
advance. The advance of the day was
made the first half hour. May opened nc
lower at 1890 and went up to s17sc, or
&c over all previous figures on the
present movement. At l p. m. May
was at S11Sc, the top price. The fight
from II a. m. to 1880 p. m. in the pit
was at 79s4@797sc to S0@S01Sc. Within
this narrow range millions Of bushels
changed hands. The sellers thought.
with the Partridge short interest wiped
out, the market would weaken. The buy
ers thought that with fresh short in
terest made to-day any bull news would
cause a sharp advance and a scare
among the shorts. Thus it stood at
O'Clock. A feature of the market was
the premium of 259c for May over
July. whereas two days ago there was
but 1&c difference. June sales to-day
were S01s@S05sc, and July was 1880
1850. The excellent weather offset
frmer feeling abroad, and the news
was again on the crops and export bus
mess. The export ciearanees were dis
appointing, with no wheat out of New
York OF Baltimore. Shortly before the
close wheat went to size, or &c
over the morning figure for May.
There was good deal Of selling on
"calls" at sO@901sc, and then the mar
ket closed at Sic. Receipts. So cars
wheat, 742 cars corn, 1876 cars oats.
Shipments, 14,635 bu wheat, 202,SS4 Blu
corn. 179,S24 bu oats. There was no
large individual trading in corn, but the
market was fairly active, with consider
able strength early and prices steady at
the close. Oats were quiet, firm and
featureless. The demand was fair, but
sellers were cautious and price changed
very narrow. The provision market
was undisturbed, except little actiY-
ity in lard. Partridge bought freely Of
this product. and the price of May went
from $6.10 to S6.15. Hutchinson sold, land
the price went back to $6.1211 at once.
In short ribs there was little change,
except slight decline at the opening.
May pork sold at Sl0.45 to S10.47119, and
back to $1O45 at the close. Cash trans
actions were fair.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

THE COMING COW.

Some OF Her Points as Understood
by the Massachuse it's Plough
man.
Among the many other good points
contained in the very able address OF
Secretary Sessions, reported in other
columns of this issue, perhaps the most
important is the need of product pedi-
gree in cattle. The fact that the aver
age butter COW of Massachusetts is
only producing less than half the but
ter she is yielding, carefully bred and
fed, should stimulate our breeders to
increased efforts.
Our registered cattle of the various
breeds are by no means all good at the
pail or the churn, though they may
have all the "points" required by the
Judges at our cattle shows.
What we want is record of what
every COW does for every day in the
wear, and this should be the basis for
registry in the herd book. No animal
should be eligible to registry in the first
class that has not shown record by q
year of certain standard.
1t would only require a few years or
this sort Of care in recording, If assisted
by a system of premiums offered for
DtSG T6cOIuS dJ OuI CdItlC SlOWog W
create demand for breeding stock with
product pedigree.
This has already been done to some
extent with the best butter and milk
breeds, but not by any means in the
syse matte and energetic way that the
Importance of the question demands.
Our agricultural societies should take
this matter in hand, and not only offer
premiums for the best yearly record in
milk and butter. but for cattle that can
show the best ancestry on this basis.
The same line of argument will apply
also to breeding sheep, swine and poul-
try. They should all be bred more with
reference to their usefulness, and less
with regard to outward appearance; we
want productiveness rather than fine
points, sleek coats or feathers on the
toes.
DR.. Peter Collier, director of the New
York Experiment station, at Geneva,
estimates the present average product
of butter for New York state at not over
100 pounds per COW per year.
We have no reason TO suppose thae
Massachusetts, is doing much better
than New York, and we see no good
reason why this product may not at
east be made to approach 800 pounds
fer year, as Mr.. Douglass has done III
Vermont. There is certainly room hers
aor some enterprise and energy to mees
certain reward.
The Coming Cow" should be horn
ess, whether bred for the pail or Tor
butter making, and this may be. easily
accomplished by an occasional creSs
with either of the hornless breeds.

very small and far behind the demand. All
kinds of poultry are selling well, and when
nicely dressed bring full prices. Some lots
that came in yesterday, that were exception
ally choice, brought fraction above our
high quotations, but most of the arrivals
show lack of care and have to go at consid-
erably lower prices.
While there is not any special surplus Of
egg stocks, there is plenty TO supply the de-
mand, and prices have q slightly heavy tone
and the market is barely steady at l2@12t2c.
The market for new vegetables was rather
quiet, with 10 promised activity until more

AIMS TO BUST TRUSTS.
Senator Sherman's Bill Discussed
by the Senate,

NY NIIC oCHdlCs
WASHINGTON, March 21.-The senate
devoted the greater part of the day to
discussing Senator Sherman's anti
trust bill. After petitions had been pre-
scented, Mr.. Sherman called up the bill
to declare unlawful trusts and COM
binationS in restraint of trade and pro-
duction. Mr.. Sherman explained the
provisions of the bill. Mr.. ingalls, gave
notice of an amendment aimed against
dealing in futures" or "options,"
which was read aud ordered printed.
On motion of Mr.. Sherman it was
ordered that the substitute reported
from the finance committee should be
treated as the original text of the bill,
and the amendments offered treated as
amendments in the first and second de-
gree. Mr.. Vest spoke on the legal ques-
lions involved, and argued that the
original bill and the substitute were UNI
