CHICAGO. March PA local paper
says there has been rumors on the Board
OF Trade Tor some time to the effect that
a corner is beng worked in May wheat,
cornerers having begun 10 buy when
prices was about 90 or 81 cents. Rumor
v%ariously pointed to a combination OF
New York and Chicago men to a clique
Of Chicagoans exclusively Now it is
asserted that it has been learned that
many of the buying orders have come
from New York and chiefly through com.
mission houses, connected by private
wires to Wall street. 1t is said that pur-
chases of ]manIpul3tors must now e high
up in the millions.
At st. Louis the Northwest. aud heavy
local spectators have a shortage which
aggregates thirty to forty millions OF bush
els. If the clique holds half Of this and
and succeed in their supposed intention
OF working prices Mp to 81. 25. the profits
wouli aggregate over five millions.
Secretary Dickinson of the national
commission last night wired Secretary of
the Treasury Foster asking whether ii he
expense OF the April meetings of the ma
tiDual commission exceeded the appropri-
alton, the treasury department would

nriated Tor the current year. Secretary

was not in excess of $lO,O 600. it would be

tOnight since receiving the nomination for
mayor. 1t was at Central Music hall and
the place Was crowded with his adher-
ents. The meeting proved to be one that
is likely to be memorable in Illinois po-
litics and indirectly perhaps also in
national affairs. Harrison savagely de-
nounced his fellow Democrat and oppos-
ing candidate, Mayor Cregier. Announce
ment was made that the newly elected
United States senator, John NJ. Palmer,

WASHINGTON, March "a -TheAwar de-
partment is taking advantage of the ces-
sation of hostilities among the Indians OF
Dakota aud have been engaged in gather
ing authentic information as to the prob
abilities of another outbreak this spring.
Careful investigation has been made by
officers serving as agents at Pine Ridge
and Rosebud agencies and their reports
are not altogether reassuring. 10 sub
stance these ofic, rs assert there need or
need not be trouble. just as the govern
meDt desires. An outbreak can be pre-
vented or, on the other hand, very little
will tan the slumberiDg feelings of ab1rig-
inGeS into a fierce fame. That is to say,
the whole case rests upon the care exer-
cised in the distribution OF appropriations.
If Indians get all that is due them. and
there is not too much haggling. there will
be peace. But the the govern
ment attempts to piDch-the Dakota tribes
the hitherto friendly Indians, who do not
feel very compliceut over the late trips to
Washington. will. it is predicted, surely
revolt. The e Indians are at present in a
majority 10 the two Dakotas, as most of
the hostile chiefs have been taken by an
Italian show for a European trip and the
remaining hostiles are thus short of lead
ers. They realize perfectly well. that the
chiefs are not held rs h%ostiles, but have
gone as a matter of enterprise, and so
thew would not be necessarily deferred
from outbreak through fear of retaliation
on their fellows These absent chiefs.
however, are perhaps the worst fighters of
the nation.
