tancous movement of grain in all parts

indicated that shipping would be light,
until prices advanced. Three days
later grain began pouring into all sta

and soon elevators were filled. and in
some instances buying ceased. DE.
mands for cars could not be filled and
as a result u perfect ciamor was made
upon the Railway Commission for re-
lief. Chairman Rice says that of relui-
sitions for over one thousand cars, less
than three hundred had boon supplied.
These were sent to the most needy
points. This condition of affairs is as
surprising as it is annoying so early in
the season. The commission is doing
everything possible to meet the de-
mands of shippers and. aided by the
railway officials, they hope to prevent

Heat the County.

TIE national banks of Aberdeen have
o their suits against the county.
which were brought in Circuit Court.
In the case OF the Aberdeen National.
it was shown that the assessor for the
year 1891, assessed the shares of stock
of the bank at Sel, 1a5. and that the
County Hoard Of Equalization re-
assessed the said shares in the sum of
S5t, 80. The court holds that tho
board exceeded its powers and author
ity in re-assessing the stock. and that
its acts aid doin.s in the premises are
void. and the same are set aside and
held Tor naught: that the tax ON the
shares OF stock of said plaintiff shall
not have been extended on a valuation
greater than the sum of SCI, 533 maxi
ing u tax of Sl,ol9.+ AZ, and that all in
excess thereof is illegal and void.
The case of the First National bank
was identical in character with the one
above outlined.

Republican VIII Select City Council OH
cers-No Changes Predicted
1t is not expected that there will be
much change, II any, in the makeup OF
the incoming City Council officers and
officials from what il is at present. The
same members have been elected from the
First, Third, Fourth and Fifth Wards,
and as no person has been elected from
the Second, the present incumbents have
the right to serve until their successors
are chosen.
II is Understood that a caucus OF the
Republican members OF the incoming
Common Council will be held tomorrow
evening TO arrange the matter OF organ
ization which will undoubtedly be the
same as now unless Colonel Pierce should
deem il wise TO retire from the Presi iency
on account OF the precarious condition OF
his health.
In that event Fred Bintord, the third
Councilman from the First Ward, would
probably be the choice OF the other Re-
publicans for the position.
Councilman McKeough OF the Fifth
from present indications, will hardly be
able TO be present at the Inauguration
ceremonies
Unless, as now seems probable, the rules
to elect the committees, there is no doubt
but Mr.. Pierce will reorganize them very
materially.
