MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS,
Chamber OF Commerce.

Weakness was the leading feature Of the
earlv market. prices opening lac below yes
terdays close. Trading in May was up to a
fair amount, and mostly in scattering lots: as
no large lines came out. and few seemed to
have any large buying orders. Dealers were
changing from one side to the other, and
many of the trades were apparently Oh
scalping account. Liverpool was dull, but
holders, ii was said, were unwilling to make
any concessions. There was rising tempera-
ture throughout the country, which ac-
counted for considerable of the ease in the
markets. Several very gloomy accounts came
from Tennessee and Kentucky relating TO
conditions there These reported much of
ground. Other reports from the Saile states
contradicted such statements, and said wheat
never looked better.

At cars. The demand was very slow for cash
wheat, with buyers holding back, demanding
concessions Prices ranged lower in sympa-
thy with the weakness in futures. A few
early sales were made at about yesterdays
range, but the later sales were considerably
lower. The demand was mostly from local
mllers, though some sales were noted for
outside shipment. Most of the outside buy
ers who had recently been in the market
were out Of it, waiting. evidently, for the
bottom to be reached before taking any more.
There appeared to be less inquiry for wheat
to arrive. In a general way business was
dull all around.

A TRIP TO ALASKA.
Or. l.. B. Sperry Delivers an Inter
esting Lecture.


esting Lecture.
DR.. L. B. Sperry delivered an inter-
esting descriptive lecture of a trip to
Alaska, last evening at the WestMln-
lister church, which was listened to by a
crowded room full of interested spec
tators. DR.. Sperry has large assort-
ment of artistic views of that in
teresting country, many of them
beng gems of coloring. The most
interesting part of his talk was
the description of the glacier phenom-
ena, and views from some of the largest
glaciers of Northern Alaska. He spoke
of one that was a nile and half IN
width and 200 feet in height where it
emptied into the sea, that, although it
seemed stationary to the eye. Is flowing
into the sea AT the average rate OF sew
enty feet a day. zone cannot con-
ceive." said he, "the grandeur of the
sight. All day long. as in centuries past,
this moving mass, this sOliditied river,
has been flowing on and on, accom-
panied by booming and cracking and
crashing like the noise Of continued
battle. The topping masses as they fall
into the sea, and the pillows that rise
and roll from wall to wall Is sight that
cannot be matched anywhere on the
face of the globe.
IAN European traveller was with our
expedition. and he said that there was
more in that one glacier than in all
those of Europe put together. The
movement of this one mighty mass
should prove beyond doubt the claim
of glacier formation for this Northern
continent"
He dwelt largely upon the resources
of Alaska, and stated that its lumber
and mineral wealth would some day he
the wonder of the world. Its white,
yellow and red cedar, he says. is unSur-
passed in quality and quantity.
He gave many views of the city of
Sitka from different points, one of the
most interesting being the interior of
the Greek church, with its tapestry,
brOnZes and panels of beaten gold and
silver, decorated with some of the finest
of art in oil painting on ivory. He said
thai the decorations in that one editice
were worth hundreds of thousands of
dollars.
The doctor is rapid and interesting
speaker, and the lecture did not lag for
a moment in interest during the entire
two hours of instructive talk.

The TRADING RESTRICTED,

for New Develop

A Very Narrow Market Closes With
a Fractional Slump
In Prices.
Financial Operations Of the Money
Kiugs---The General Quo
tations.

CHICAGO, March THE wheat
market was unsettled to-day and heavy
when dull. There was very fair buying
at times, and prices responded readily,
but each time settled back when ag-
gressive buying ceased. There was no
special selling pressure early, and May
opened at the curb price, 1880, or nc
under the close Yesterday. On show
of buying by Partridge and some bear
ish crop dispatches the price touched
7S56@7Ss4c. the best figure of the day.
On selling by Schwarz-Dupee, Chandler
Brown, Jones-Kennett and the crowd,
the price went off to 7S3s@7S15c. Lind
bloom was buyer around 7S15c, and w.
q. Mccormick IL Co., Logan a. Co. and
Robert Warren were fair buyers later.
There was rally to 1899, at which
point Hutchinson turned seller and
stopped the advance, and on the dull
ness which followed the price went off
again to 7S1lc, with third little bulge
to 7S19c before l O'Clock. Cudahy was
a seller at the top and buyer
at the bottom. Jesse Hoty was reported
as buying May heavily at New York.
There was no import news for the day.
Clearances from Atlantic ports were,
all told, only about $4,000 bu of wheat
and 1000 bbs of -four. Field. Lindley
q Co. had dispatch from Kentucky
saying wheat fields were black and
damaged. and Jones-Kennett had the
same advices from other sources. The
opinion prevails that the Dodge figures
regarding wheat left in first hands will
be bearish. This feeling has been
partly discounted in this market al
ready. In the pit June sold Off to 777sc
and July to 76kc. The wheat market
closed heavy at about bottom figures for
the day. Receipts were IS ears wheat,
3S7 cars corn, and 81 cars oats; ship
ments, 1861 blu wheat, 245,99l bu corn,
and lG6, 1851 bu oats. Corn also ruled
dull and easy, The offerings were lib
eral. and with few buying orders for
May the tone was heavy. The grading
is better, and with larger receipts in
prospect the disposition on the part of
sellers was to shade prices in order to
make sales. Oats opened quiet but
were steadily held, Hutchinson giving
the market some support. Provisions
were dull, but fairly steady.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

RIVER IMPROVEMENT.
The Spirit Island Dam Will Be
BuiIt.

Built.
The different projects for dams IN the
river are still exciting considerable
comment among mill men and those in
terested in the matter. Since the sub
feet was fist broachedfthere have been
three separate schemes for river i'm
provement--the Meeker island, the
forty-foot dam at Fort Smelling, and the
Minneapolis Mill cOmpany'S plan for
river improvement.
In regard to the Fort Smelling dam, is
is probable that the scheme will never
be carried through, as it would interfere
with the proposed plan for navigation
20 Minneapolis, which could only be
overcome by the use of hydraulic lift,
which would not only be expensive. but
tedious, and great impeachment to nav
igation.
The plan which will probably be the
first to materialize will be the one pro-
posed by the mill company. 1t is
claimed that the plans have been APP
proved by G. A. Pillsbury, and that
they have been sent to Washington for
Senator Washburn'S inspection. The
lower end of Spirit island at Tenth ave-
nue. south. The plans are SAID to be
perfect in detail and the cost has been
figured to a very close estimate. In
view of the large expense entailed in
the undertaking, the only question that
arises is whether or not the new Eng
lish syndicate will be willing to make
the investment. If they are, it is al
most certain that the plan will be car
ried out.
c. A. Pillsbury says in regard to the
matter: The best place for dam is
undoubtedly Just below the Tenth ave-
nue. bridge. Between the crest of the
apron and the university there is total
fall of II feet. By putting 15-fOOt
dam in Just below the bridge, the power
can be utilized just as well as by build
ing a 27-foot dam at the university. A
15-foot dam can be built for less than
one-half the cost at the bridge than a
27-foot dam can be at the university.
An additional reason for putting in a
dam at the bridge is that the foot of the
apron would be protected by this
means"
1t is believed that Senator Washburn
will return the plans in short time
with his approval. The matter will then
be placed before the syndicate, and if it
is favored the building will be COM
pleted as soon as possible.

Quite a Little Point,

An interesting case was tried before
Judge Emery and a jury in the munic-
ipal court yesterday. 1t appeared that
Oscar Lyke, saloonkeeper on River
side avenue, contracted with Johnson d
Hurd to furnish him barrOom fixtures.
Among the items to be furnished was a
perfect plate-glass mirror. When the
fixtures were furnished the plate glass
was found to be defective, and the
plaintiff dyke refused to accept it.
Johnson d Hurd admitted that it was
not such glass as they had contracted
to deliver, and took it from the place,
agreeing to replace 1t, but failed
to do so in reasonable time, Where
upon Mr.. Lyke sued them for the
amount that he had paid for the glass
the sum of S67-- which was the amount
at which the glass was taxed up 10 him

meantime, Lyke had procured another

SALVATION Il NOT FREE.
Uncharitable Action of a Priest
in Milwaukee.


MILWAUKEE, Wis, March Z. - A
lively sensation is Just now agitating
the attendants at st. Johns cathedral.
Miss Hattie j. White, granddaughter
of Solomon Juneau, was last Sunday
ordered by the rector, Father Keogh,
not to occupy the seat that had been 0c-
cupied by her grandfather's family for
forty years. She insisted on doing so,
however, and quite lively scene was
enacted in the aisle of the church by
Miss White and the rector. Miss White
finally paid $3.50 for the privilege of
sitting in her accustomed seat, and
peace relgned until after service. 1t is
claimed by Miss Whites friends that
her grandfather donated to the church
the land on which the cathedral stands
and that the family had always been
given pew in the church free. The
present authorities deny that the Ju-
neau family has any claim on the pres
ent edifice. A great row among the
members is imminent, as some are TAX
ing sides with Miss White and others
with the rector.
