ON THE FREE LIST.
Binding Irvine Relieved OF Tarifi Duty by
the Senate.

WAsHISGToS, Sept g. Binding twine has
been placed upon the free list by the senate.
This was accomplished by the combined
vote of the democrats and the senators from
the western states. This has been a SUBJ
ject of bitter controversy between the rep
rescntatiyes from the agricultural and the
representatives from the manufacturing dis
tiicts of the country from the time the re-
vision Of the tariff bill was undertaken.
The manufacturers representatives suc-
ceeded In the house, but I'm the
senate they were turned down.
The twine 6ber men have been aided ma
tcrially in their fight by the manufacturers
of agricultural implements, and especially
the manufacturers of sef-binding reapers.
These manufacturers desire to control the
manufacture OF twine because most OF the
machines require special kind OF twine to
be used in order TO work smoothly. Inn
ported twine does not work successfully.
The house viii likely agree 10 the amend-
Incnt made by the senate. Senator Moody,
joined by both Nebraska, Kansas, Minne-
sofa and North Dakota senators, voted for
the amendment to strike of the duty on

WASHINGTON, Sept. Gland Commits
sioner Croft has issued to the registers and
receivers of the land Offices a circular re-
leasing from reservation the lands OF the

j. v. Farwell & Go. Deny That They Are

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.--J. V. Farwell, jr., was
emphatic in his denial of the story that the

Such rumors have been in circulation since
the failure, and although not generally
thought to be we'll founded. ifaye been the
cause Of much speculation in the business
world as to just how the firm in question
stands. That ii is at all crippled Mr.. Far
well denies.
'.It is "a baseless rumnr,' said Mr.. Farwell.
I'VE are not injured in the least and all
this talk is absolute nonsense. Moth
ing can hurt As to the storic,
regarding Congressman Taylor's embarrass
ment can say nothing as know nothing
whatever about Col Taylor's affairs. But
as to the rumors regarding the firms con-
dition they should be branded as absolutely
false"
As the failure was but for 81. 000,0 900 while
Farwell 4 Co. have a solid backing eNclu-
sive of the their business profit Of $1,000, 600,
MIR. Farwcll'S statements seem to be amply
supported by figures. Congressman Taylor
also figured largely in the rumors and is
said to be impoverished by the failure, but
as he is not in tls city nothing definite can
be learned.

The "iron-clad" prohibition law, which

Minneapolis Millers Undetermined What
Course 10 Pursue.


MINNEAPoLls. Sept s.--Thc Minneapolis,
millers held a meeting to consider the mat
ter Of wheat grading. There are loud com-
plants that the state has let down on the
quality of wheat that is allowed to go into
the three upper grades. This, some Of the
millers claimed, is carried SO far as to make
IL unsafe to buy for their mills in any other
way than by sample. A proposition for the
millers to unite in n refusal To buy No.
northern wheat by grade was discussed.
OF sentiment as to whether or not
the adoption of an agreement not to
buy any by grade would be the best
way out Of the situation. Those opposed to
the agreement insisted that II would be
their policy to buy in whatever way they
thought would be to their individual ad-
vantage. They claimed that the proper
way to remedy the evil would be for the
elevator people to refuse to take into their
houses unsound wheat in The upper grades
reinspection. The mmssinr men were
also divided on the subject, several claim
ing that the grading is all right. Others
took the ground that the standard adopted
is entirely too low aud lets unsound wheat
into grades where IT /, not cntitled to go.
Some dealers say that if The standard is kept
down no grade wheat will be taken unless
at prices enough lower to cover the risk in
taking it..
