The Surplus of w heat.

A New York dispatch published this
morning states that "a decided sensation"
was produced on the produce exchange
floor alter the close business Yesterday af
ternoon by the report of the statistician of
the Department of Agriculture in regard to
the quantities Of corn and wheat still re-
naming in the hands of the farmers. "rhe
general impression" is said To be shat the
report will create u bear movement"
II is stated here that so far as the wheat
reserve is concerned the figures Of the statis
tician when carefully examined will hardly
be considered cause for movement Of the
character indicated. IL is true that the re-
serve exceeds the average reserve at the
same date by 26,000,000 bushels, or 20 per
cent, but the statstician expressly points
out that in the spring wheat States of the
northwest there are only 45,OOO,O0O bushels,
or barely enough for seed and home con-
sumption, while the winter wheat States OF
"Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri
ard Kansas have only 60O0,OO0
bushels, half of which will be needed at
home" That is, in these two groups Of
States-the only States east of the Rocky
| Mountains which contribute any consider
able surplus to commerce, as the situation
was explained to a Str reporter-there is a
total reserve of only 105, 100000 bushels, or
not more than 30000000 bushels ia excess
| of their own requirements. IL is douDtieSs
true, it is stated, that part of this moderate
surplus consists of wheat which is held back
| because its owners consider it worth more
than they can now get for 1t and which is,
therefore, as the statistcian says, CONNER
cially unavailable at present price"
There is, then, a remainder Of $1,000, 900
bushels, which is mainly scattered through
States that do not ordinarily contribute any
surplus to the markets, in which the farm
ers are in the habit OF keeping the surplus
of one crop to supply the deficiencies Of an
other rather than seeking an outlet TOR it in
outside markets, and in which, as a conse-
quence, neither the commercial nor the
mechanical facilities for the speedy market
| ing OF any unusual surplus have been pro-
vided. Those who have studied the statisti
clans figures here see in them no new rea
son TO expect a decline in wheat.-Vdsh

an extra license of $50 on sellers of cigarettes
has passed both houses of the Legislature.
II the exorbtant license will break up the
abominable and injurious habit of the youth
in the use of the cigarette by driving it
from the market, the law will prove a bless
ing. The provisions of the law are that
when any person or corporation intends to
sell cigarettes made of tobacco in combina-
ton with any other substance or material,
or covered, wrapped with or contained in
any ether material than tobacco, he, she or
it, shall apply to the Clerk of the Court,
who is empowered to issue traders's licenses,

applicant shall state on oath, TO be admins
tered by the said Clerk, that the cigarettes
intended To be sold under said license con-
tain no injurious drug or narcotic, and that
he will not knowingly sell under the same
any cigarettes containing any such injurious
drug or narcotic, and upon making said
oath the Clerk shall demand and receive
from said applicant the sum of $50 before
granting said license. This act shall take
effect from the 1st day Of May 1890

New collector and Naval onicer.-

1
Collector Groome met Mr. VIM. M. Marine
in the Carollton Hotel yesterday morning,
and exchanged pleasant greeting with the
man who is soon to succeed him in his
official chair at The custom house. Later in
the day Mr.. Marine called at his future
quarters, but the collector was out and he
was received by Deputy Collector knight
He will not seriously consider his appoint
ments until his confirmation by the Senate,
but the politicians have already started to
discussing the probable occupants of some
of the good places under him. Mr..
Charles l.. Wilson, who was candidate for
surveyor, has been spoken of for the office
Of deputy collector, and Gen. w. Il. w.
Ross's name has been used in connection
with the same place. Mr.. VIM. II. Hender-
son was also regarded by some as a posi-
bility, although it has gone out that he does
not desire any Office since the postmaster
ship has been refused him. Hon. Milton G.
Urner called during the day at the naval
office, where he is soon to take charge, and
also paid his respects to Postmaster John
son. He will probably assume his new
position April 1.-.Sunof Tuesday.

The investigate SO-callcd, started
by the city council has 'cted as boom
erang. and instead OF catching a couple
of lone Democrats in a compromising
position, has brought to light enough
questionable proceedings to make all
of the Republican aldermen willing to
drop the matter Just where it now is.
The investigation was started by an ar
ticlc published in the Minneapolis
Times, which. i'll a general way,
charged the city council with
peculiar performances. Enough has
already been brought out by the inves-
tigatiUn TO more than Justify the publ
caIion, and to prove beyond any posi-
bility of doubt that the performances
referred to by the Times were. to say
the least, "peculiar." One instance
alone would more than Justify the
Times in the course it has pur-
sued. and that instance was
who was charged with the peculiar
performance. But possibly the finer
senses Of the aldermen were dulIpd by
the constant Whirl of excitement which
Is generally supposed to be a natural
adjunct of political life. At least. that
is what those who are charitably i'll
clined are forced to admit since Aid. J.

vice president of the council, has boldly
proclaimed that it was he who was will

and William Warner.
Jacob Barge addressed the meeting
and urged the advantages of Sixth ave-

to Lake Minnetonka. He said that
thousands of dollars had been spent on
Minnesota river to enhance the value of
a few farms, and that it would take but
a small amount to make it one of the
most beautiful driveways to the lake.
He thought that no other route would
accommodate so many people, and as it
was already graded half way it should
not be hard matter to have it pushed
to completion.

whose names have been connected with
questionable transactions. This is not
exactly what the public has right to
expect. At the start it was cOntended
by the attorneys for the Times that the
council had no power in an investlga-
ton of this kind to compel the at
tendance of witnesses, but the
Now the legal adviser of the
city discovers that the other lawyers
were right. and although he is told
where to look for the positive proof, he
says the committee is poWerlesS. The
investigation has brought out one fact,
however, which, in spite of clever
explanation. puts one of the members,
who has been highly honOred by the
council, into anything but a pleasant
situation. During the first days pro-
ceedings one of the members of the
committee stated that 'they were
going to the bottom of the whole
thing" and 1t was intimated that
MeSSrS. Anderson and Douglas and
Vice President Goodrich would be
called on to explain something about
the stories which were at1oat during the
memorable street car fight year ago.
AS no direct charges have been mads,
and as the committee is now apparently
expressed by the individual members,
with the hearsay evidence adduced by
the examination, it is probable that no
blame Will be attached to any one,
and unless half dozen men
will come forward and swear that
they paid Mr.. So and So so much money
for voting for or against this or that
project the committee will, under the
instructions of the city attorney, be un-
able to do anything but report that
there "were no grounds for an investl-
CATION" 1t is hardly far, however, to
lay such state of facts to the door OF
any member of the committee, or to the
committee as body. They are all
human, and they are all, for
the time at least, men with
political aspirations. The wire pullerS
who control the machine control them,
and while majority of them no doubt
started out with firm determination to
do their whole duty, they are now
handicapped by the influence brought
to bear by the political bosses. The
visit of President johnson to c. A.
Nimocks yesterday was accepted by
many as confederation Of the fact that
