Shutting Up of the Worlds Fair
Again Considered.

WASHINGTON, May 26.-The features
of the days proceedings in the house
were the action on the worlds fair
closing proposition and an attack on
John /. Davenport, of New York, both
in connection with the sundry civil ap-
preparation bill.
The multitude of amendments pre-
sented to the bill confused the chair and
the clerks and for time the house was
in parliamentary tangle. Most of the
amendments were directed to the Sun
day closing of the worlds fair and some
Of them were of humorous character.
The tangle was unraveled bv Mr.. Dock
cry, who secured the adoption of an
amendment providing simply for the
closing of the government exhibit on
Sunday, which thus leaves the larger
question TO be decided by the manage
ment.
The action of John E. Davenport,
whose name always gives rise to con-
tention between New York Republi-
cans and Democrats, came up for dis
cussion late in the day, and the methods
pursued by MIN in New York elections
were denounced by Messrs. Cummings,
Warner and Fitch, and defended by Mr..
Payne.
The sundry civil bill was still pend
ing when the house adjourned,

RAIN MAKING.
Congressman Jolley Is Strongly
in Favor of the Scheme.

Congressman JolIey Is Strongly
in Favor of the Scheme.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Mr. Curtis,
of the Smithsonian institute, spoke
against Dyrenforth's rain making
theory before the house commit
tee on agriculture this morning.
Congressman Jolley, of South Dakota.
is nevertheless confident that the S25, 900
appropriation asked for for rain making
experiments will pass the committee.
He announces himself as thoroughly
convinced of the feasibility of Dyren-
forth's plans, and says that if the gov
ernment will grant money for begin
ming the work, the people of the arid
states will carry it on themselves.
South Dakota will be thickly settled if
rain making is adopted. Crops will be
assured, and floods will be prevented.
The committee has not as yet arrived at
any definite agreement on the subject,
but Curtis objections are held to have
little weight, as he was not present at
the final successful experiments Dyren-
forth made. Ex-Congressman Dunnell
leaves for Owatonna Saturday. He has
been in Washington all winter In the
interests of certain bills of Northwest
ern Importance.

WASHINGTON, May 81. - Senator
PETER today introduced bill to "in-
crease the currency and provide for its
circulation; to reduce the rates of in
terest and to establish a bureau OF
loans" and it was laid on the table for
the present. Mr.. PETER expressieg his
intention of addressing the senate on
the subject.
1t provides for q bureau of loans
within the treasury department, to be
conducted by three commissioners with
salaries of 5000 each. This bureau Is
to establish loan agencies, one of which
is to be at the capital of every state anu

agencies is to be to lend money to the
people, Just as such business is now
done by irresponsible and well regu-
lated re al estate and loan agencies"
The loans are to be for not less than
one year, nor for longer than (the num-
ber of years left blank.
No loan is to be for less than 500 or
more than 81, 500 to or for any one per-
son or family; and no loan is to be
granted unless it he to procure or save
home. The funds required to carry
out the act are to be provided by the
issue of treasury notes. equal in amount

and silver coin, and bullion belonging
to the United States. The bill prOhib-
its banks or corporations from demand
ing or receiving more than per cent
interest, or per cent where the loan
extends over year.

MINNEAPOLIS,
AN AMAZON, SHE.
How n Young Girl Laid Out Dog
Catcher.

The dag catcher's harvest is proving
a good one, and already there are scores
of yelping CANNES confined in the pala-
tial pound. The owners of unlicensed
purps are in consequence feeling any
thing but joyful. In South Minneapolis
several of the dog catchers have begun
a too vigorous crusade, and to fatten up
their fees are running risks Of having
their heads cracked.
One fresh fellow came driving down
Minnehaha avenue yesterday afternoon,
the few mongrels In his cage bowling
mOurnful accompaniment to the rattle
of his rickety rig. He espied young
girl standing at the corner Of Lake
street, holding in her arms shaggy
little terrier. The dog catcher was a
man of quick action, and it took him
but moment to slip moose around the
little dogs neck. But when he at
tempted to pull it the scene changed,
and before the dog catcher could collect
his scattered senses, he was flOundering
on his back Oh the sidewalk. The young
Amazon, seeing that her pet was in
danger, had landed him an upper-cut in
the jaw. She then proceeded to scratch
him a little. and when she had finished
the dog catcher was glad to retreat
without even getting his moose back.

A Good Chance to Make a
Profit on Pork Helped

Pits--Narrow Trading at
'i' New York.

CHICAGO, May 28.-EXcitement centered in
provisions again today. Pork opened '12@
ice higher, and then advanced zoe OH liberal
buying by the short interest. AS soon as
the demand subsided, there was q reaction
of 15c and then another bulge of 10c on buy
ing orders coming from the country. The
market fell off &c later on, and then, under
the influence OF the strength in grain and
liberal buying by prominent packing insti-
tuition, advanced about 15c, the highest
point of the day. This was followed by a
decline of 5@17I2c, a reaction to like extent,
and similar falling off, the market closing
22lac higher than ut the same time yesterday.
Lard gained 7l2c and closed strong SEEM
ingly independent OF other hog products, and
in more request than for some time past.
Ribs opened at the final figures of yesterday,
and then advanced 2212c i'll response to the
strength in pork and free buying reacted
later about 7lsc and closed weak 15c higher
than yesterday. The run of hogs at the yards
was less than expected, and the fact helped
the advance. John Cudahy, who is supposed
to be long big line of ribs, seemed to be the
leading bull A tip that pork was purchase
for 81 barrel profit had temporarily some
thing to do with the bulge.
In wheat only light business was trans
acted and there was no important change in
prices. The opening was the same as yeSter
days closing and eased off trife, then ad
vanced 5sc, again eased off and prices de-
clined asc ruled irregular and the closing
was about lac higher than yesterday. 1t was
CLAIMED the Northwest sold some wheat early
in the day and that st. Louis and New York
parties bought. ts4-,-.1t
Late in the session advices were received
stating that it was raining in the West, and
this caused an advance to top prices of the
day. report TO the effect that French
stocks had decreased 900, 000 bushels seemed
to induce buying as all increase had been
expected in view of the duties soon to go
into effect.
Corn showed decreasing activity, with fluc-
tuations confined within as@84c range. The
price was helped by reports Of rains in this
state and Indiana. Business was chiefly
local, the trade buying on soft Spots and
selling on any advance. July closed 1sc
higher than yesterday. There was very little
heard from the deal in May corn today. The
proportion OF contract corn in the daily re-
ceipts is heavily increasing, eighty-five car
loads out of 37 received today being up to
the requirements. f-',. go

JOHN GOODNOW ESQ.
He Tells How He Came to Get the
Fuel Contract.

The coal pool has appealed to Wash
ington. according to John Goodnow, and
he explains Congressman Castles pro-
test against the letting of the govern
ment building fuel contract as follows:
IAN effort has been made to put the
responsibility of our bid on Deputy
Collector Marchant simply because he is
a friend of mine. AS a matter of fact
Marchant had nothing whatever Os do
with the letting of the contract. The
Journal printed the advertisement for
bids and they had to be handed in by
the 10th inst. The entire matter of ad-
vertiSing was left to the officials at
Washington, and they specified the
amount of space and the style of
type they wished the Journal to use.
The St. Paul manager OF the pool over
look these avertiserS, though they were
inserted in the Journals want page, land
we for the third time secured the con-
tract on the lowest bid. 1t is significant
that our price was lower than the price
paid for the st. Paul government
building fuel. The ST.. Paul bid was a
pool bid, and you can easily see the
milk in the cocOanut. Marchant simply
received the bids and forwarded them
to Washington. The pool is behind this
new deal, hoping to get the contract on
the re-advertiSing for bids"

DAIRY NOTES.

Give the COW freedom enough to card
herself.
Always feed young calves milk at
blood heat.
STANDARD" - another name for
skinned cheese.
There is trouble and waste in a too
small churn.
Butter is colored to give courage to
the consumer.
What is lost per pound of butter in
the cheese is made up by the increased
value of the casein.
Give the laboring COW place by her
self.
Complete success in dairying depends
OIL right conditions.
Hard mixers make good wet nurses
for fattening calves.
Have no butter-making apparatus in
your cheese factory.
Form beef clubs and kill your OWN
beef during hot weather.
If you confine an animal, give it as
much freedom as possible.
Remember, the inest-flavored butter
is made in the private dairy.
There can be no pure, sweet milk
made where there is no pure, sweet
air.
The net profit on ten sheep is about
the same as on 1,000-p0und COW.
Every pound OF butter in the milk
adds a pound to the weight Of the
cheese.
Sour curd. but not sour milk, is good
for hens. Get rid of the sour whey.
First do your duty in delivering milk,
then see that your neighbors do theirs.
The cows of Russia wear blue glass
because of the too intense glare of the
snow.
If you patronize a creamery or a
cheese factory, do your best to make il
a success.
There is more money in well-made,
rich, whOle-milk cheese than in split
ting the milk and making both butter
and cheese.
Loss in milk yield when cows are de-
horned is insignificant" says Prof.
Roberts.
One of the most important requisites
in keeping cattle for profit is to keep
the right kind of CATTLE
l. is difficult to get cattle ready tor
market early now, unless they haVe
been wintered in good condition.
Keeping dairy is business that the
farmer should know something about
before investing too largely.
A valuable beef animal is one that
will return the greatest per cent of
profit for the amount of food consumed.
A great many kicking cows might be
cured and more prevented by simply
trimming the tinger-nails often enough
to keep them from cutting the teats of
the cow,
