WOOL AND WHEAT.
Wheat Yields, the Consumption, Exports
and Reserves.

It is not often that ''before and after
taking" utterances with respect to the
domestic wheat crop, made one year
apart, make satisfactory reading to the
writer when the two are brought to-
gether. But Brddstreet'S is satisfied to
make the following exhibit of its views
one year ago regarding the domestic
wheat crop of 1890 and probable re-
serves on July l, 1891, as compared
with what appeared in its columns at
the close of June, 1891:

ALTON %BoYcoTTED.

April 15 Eastern Lines Will Refuse to Ex-
change Business with That Road.
NEW YORK, April 0.-The Sun says
that tho board of rulings Of the Trunk
Line and Central Traffic associations
has decided to boycott the Alton road.
This board was revived in January last,
when sixteen of the roadsapetween the
Mississippi river and the -Saboard met
in this city and pledged themselves to
boycott such roads as paid commissions.
Several of the lines openly ignored the
order, while nearly all the rest kept on
paying commissions secretly. The
Chicago and Alton was the open viola
tor. The board has sent a declaration
to the general manager of the Alton to
the effect that on and after April Is all
tickets of all classes and baggage checks
sold and issued by that line will be de-
clined. The only roads east Of the Mis-
sissippi that refused to Join in the boy
colt were the Ohio and Mississippi and
the Columbus and Hooking Valley. If
all the roads carry out the boycott, a
multitude of law suits from elected pas
sengers may be looked for. No doubt
the Alton will carry the matter into the
courts, but the board Of rulings claim
that it was sure of its stand before it
declared war. It claims the sanction of
the interstate commerce commission as
to boycOtts.

of Great Importance.
Those familiar with land Office affairs
can readily see that decisions upon the
two questions are of vital Importance to
settlers, mortgages and the government.
Under the new law it is provided that,
regardless of compliance by the original
entryman with the Law, if final proof
was accepted and the land passed by
mortgage or deed to a third party, the
integrity of title cannot be questioned.
The mortgages and purchasers are now
in good faith making application to re-
instate entries cancelled before March
8, bnt on some lands filings were made
by other parties between the can
collation. of the first entry and tho
passage of the new law. All this
brings up another important point, Wig:
What shall be done with the interven-
ing filings? This is the point that is Civ
ing the department officials a great deal
of worry.
Registrations under the new townsite
law are also being held up until a decis-
ion of the supreme court in the case Of
Siebbold VS.. David can be considered.

CnAs. II. HERR1ck Of Vermont
City, S. D., committed suicide in his
"shack'' a few days since by cutting
his throat with a jack knife. He was
rather penurious, and was to have
been tried this week OH the charge of
using a cancelled two.cent stamp. 1t
is claimed however that the prosecu
tion was malicious and the tragical
end creates a great deal of feeling at
Vermont City. MI. Herrick was
from Worcester, VT, and belonged
with the original members Of the
Vermont colony which settled in
Edmunds Co., S. D., 1885, akin to the
New England colony which settled
in Hettinger Co., this state, in 1887,
several families Of the latter having
also been identified with the former.

GRANTS.
Correspondence Regarding the Land A

correspondence Regarding the Land Az
fected by the Ransom Phelps Decision.
ST. PAUL, April Z. A Pioneer Press
Washington special says: The commits
sioner of the general land Office has sub
mitted to the secretary of the interior q
letter in relation to the grant of the
Great Motherhood, which was found
to overlap into North Dakota under the
Ransom Phelps decision. The letter is
upon the subject of negotiation with the
company under the Casey resolution,
and is a statement of the facts as the
land Office finds them to exist.
Upon the main line, it is found that
the Great Northern is entitled to d, 213
acres, of which 1916 acres are in the
Northern Pacific grant and are either
owned by that company or have been
disposed Of to purchasers, and 20,O67
acres are covered byflings or have been
patented to settlers. ALI these lands are
in the vicinity of Wahpeton.
On the St. Vincent extension there are
are 81, 1853 acres, being within a superior
grant of the Northern Pacific, and, I'M
der the last decision of the supreme
court, safe to the purchasers from that
company. There are i 1876 acres within
the indemnity limits of the Northern Pa
cific grant that are subject to the Great
Northern under the Phelps decision.
These lands are held by the Northern
Pacific, or have been sold to private par
ties.
There are 1901 acres where entries
were made prior to March 1, 1877, and
which are exempt from the opera
tons of the recent decision. In
the latter amount are included
The Townsitc of Grand Forks
and valuable adjoining lands. This
leaves 25,405 acres which have been set
tied upon and will inure to the company,
all located in the lower Red river valley.
The land neal Wahpeton is all that is
subject to negotiation under the Casey
resolution. The question is now being
considered by the department. 1t is be-
lieyed that the company is perfectly
willing to negotiate, but that in taking
other lands or money indemnity will in
sist that it shall have the value of what
the lands wonld now be worth if they
were wild lands and unoccupied by set
tiers. If the secretary does not make
some offer Of negotiation at an early
date the company will probably take
means to prevent any more Of the lands
being passed to patent. as every tract
patented would necessitate a suit for
| sjectment in case amicable adjustment
fails.
From representations made here 1t Is
evidently the disposition of the company
to enter upon negotiations and accept an
adjustment that will be equitable to all
parties concerned.

IRRIGATION IN THE oAkoTAs.

A Station for Investigation Purposes to
Be Established at Jamestown.
JAMESTOWN, N. D.. April s.-Col. E.
S. Nettleton. engineer in charge of the
government irrigation Investigation in
the plain region, was here Monday and
Tuesday consulting with Senator Casey
and made a preliminary survey of the
seasons work. He has now gone south.
An irrigation station for the purpose of
demonstrating what can he done will be
established here. Some Investigations
will be made this year with a view to
%ascertaining the p~racticability of irrigat-
ing the Jim river valley from the Mis-
souri,. The plan is thought to be FEAST
BILE if the Missouri is tal1,sd somewhere

from May Is to Oct. 1 the greater part
of the time of the commission would be
spent in the Dakotas.
