MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Chamber Of Commerce.

The wheat market was stronger to-
day. Foreign markets were steady.
There was a strong demand for cash
wheat and the arrivals were smaller.
There was also general demand for
corn, and reports were in circulation of
some large export sales. All of these,
together with a belief that the repeal
bill stands good show for passing the
senate, made a strong market. There
was not much activity in futures,
though. This was due, perhaps, to the
fact that large share of traders are
on the "long" side. Liverpool closed

Last of the Dumas,
Philadelphia Telegraph.

= 1AAis'GN4 pima 1SiSSloH41s
He, too, suffers, it is said, from an
affection of the liver, and it is also said
that he broodS over the fact that he is
the last of his name. Gen. Dumas, the
whoie-souled, daredevil soldier. a full
blooded negro from Martinique. Dumas
pere, the living incarnation of gayety
and geniality, who was commonly sup
posed to have fused much of his
own CHEEKY personality into the
character of D'Artagnan, that most
lovable of scamps and most win
ming of vagabonds. both seemed
to have escaped the melancholy that is
popularity supposed to be the character
lstlc of their race, and which fell like a
pail Oh the shoulders OF their octoroon
descendant. For whether it be the eff
feet Of his illegitimate birth, which
weighed heavily upon him, or his joyless
and prosecuted childhood, SO graphically
described in the ''Affaire Clemenceau,"
the genius OF the younger Dumas has
always been sad and cynical, his laugh
ter is sheer, his comedy sardonic, and
his greatest creations, excepting the
Dame aux CameliaS," which was an
localized portrait of his first love,
are those which show civilized
human nature in its worst phases. and
delineate graphically the possibilities of
total depravity. The last of the Dumas
dynasty is now the best exponent Of
that cynical bitterness which underlies
the froth and frivolitv of the French
nature and characterizes the final years
of the dying century. His departure
would not, like that of Garrick, lessen
the harmless gayety of nations, but
France has lost of late too many of hSr
great literary lights not 10 hope that the
cloud that obscures this particular one
will blow aside, leaving Dumas fin de
steele brilliancy more luminous than
ever.

fine of $50. Mr.. Thompson appealed to
a board of arbItratOrS, in accordance
with the rules of the association. The
arbtratorS chosen by the contending
parties were G. b. Brunson, president
Of the union depot company, and A. l..
Craig, assistant general passenger agent
of the Northern Pacific, and these two
selected as the third arbitrator w. a.
Russell, assistant general passenger
agent of tho Duluth road. 1t was
claimed by the prosecutors that the
arbitrator acted i'll the same capacity
as supreme court; hence, no new evil
dence could be received by them; that
they must decide the case wholly upon
the evidence produced before the local
ticket association, as it was recorded by
the secretary of the association. Mr..
Valentine, who appeared for Mr.. ThOmp-
son, argued that it was within the
province of the aTbitratorS to receive
new evidence, and cited authority in
support of his position. The arbltra-
tors decided to hear such new evidence
as the defendant desired to present.
Henry Norman was accordingly intro
duced. He testified that he was in no
way employed by the Burlington to sell
their tickets, that he purchased the two
tickets, paying regular rate, that he
sold the tickets TO ScanlOn on his rep
resentatiOn that he wished to do some
trading at the store for himself and
wife, and that his motive in selling the
tickets at the reduced rate was to secure
the sale of goods to Scanlon. The evil
dence was not rebutted. and the arbi-
traitors accordingly found in favor of
Thompson. releasing him from the fine.

UNION PACIFIC CONTRACT.
Receivers Will Not Abrogate the
Northwestern Agreement.

Receivers Will Not Abrogate the
Northwestern agreement.
OMAHA Oct. 1S-The rumOr that
the receivers of the Union Pacific are
contemplating as first step toward
putting the property in stronger shape
the abrogation of the contract made
number of years ago between the
Northwestern and Union Pacific is
strenuously denied at headquarters.
General Passenger Agent LomaX,
when asked about the situation, said:
ut is foolish to think that the receivers
will abrogate contract that is mutually
advantageous. The business over the
Burlington and Rock Island is gone be-
yond hope of recall. As for the Mil
waukee, that road could not give us
tenth Of the local business now received
from the Northwestern. Therefore, in
the light of these arrangements, ii
seems to me that all this talk about
abrogation of contracts both premature
and lily warranted by the facts in the
case.
There is no possibility of the North
western completing its line to Ogden,
thereby deprlVing the Union Pacific of
business which now comes to it by right
so long as the contract is in effect. The
contract STIMULATES what shall be done
and what shall not be done during the
life of the agreement, and building into
our territory Is expressly prohibited.
The contract Is advantageous i'll many
ways, and talk Of abrogatiUn is decld-
eddy on the wrong scent"
But there is considerably more reason
to believe that the Il ock Island and Mil
waukee contracts will be abrOgated long
before the NOrthwestern's is. The
contracts between these roads are for
999 years, the stipulation being that for
all annual rental of $4,000, each road
has the privilege of using the bridge
and terminals on this side OF the river,
and also the use of the east end
of the bridge by paying their pro-
portion of keeping the tracks III order
and paying wheelage charges besides.
The arrangement. however, permits the
Rock Island and Milwaukee to run their
trains solid into Omaha, giving the
Rock Island through service to Denver
| via the Union Pacific bridge, and also
entrance to Kansas City. Naturally a
| strong competitor like the Rock Island
is not greatly esteemed by the Union
Pacific, partly as it must contribute to
the success of the Rock Island by per-
hitting the road to use its bridge and
terminals under the decretal order
handed down by Justice Brewer.
President Clark desires to have his
own train crews handle both Rock Is
land and Milwaukee trains from Council
Bluffs that his conductors may collect
bridge fares, instead of permitting the
trains to run solid into the union depot,
and receiving what has all along
been considered very nominal rental
| from the Milwaukee and Rock Island.
The Milwaukee and Rock Island can
abandon the contract by giving three
years notice. but tie Union Pacific
could never get out of the arrangement
except in one Way-by the appointment

MARKED BY THE DEVIL.
The Strange Story Told by al
Old NarrO in NEis.our;

The Strange Story Told by an
Old Negro in Missouri
st. Louis Republic.
Henry Rice, an aged negro, who re.
sides, or did, not more than year ago,
at Rolla, this state, makes what is prob
ably the most remarkable claim that
ever came from the mouth of human
being, viz: That he has sold his soul
to the devil, and that his satanic mai
esty sealed the bargain by putting his
trade mark on his breast. In support
OF this prepoSterOuS statement Rice
exhibits deep scar, situated directly
over the heart, which appears to have
been burned deep into the flesh with a
branding iron about the shape and size
of the hoof of 2-year-Old heifer. This
scar, the old negro declares, is the print
or mark of the devils hoof, and that il
is a memorial of compact which he
made with the king of the sulphurous
regions away back in slavery days,
According to the terms of the
contract the negro is to have
supernatural powers over his race
during the few fleeing days that he re,
mains tenant on earth, and that wheI
all is over his soul is to go-not to God,
who gave it, but to the devil, who has
marked it as his own. When Rice and
the devil had settled on the conditions
outlined above, the lessee of the negro'i
soul placed his cloven hoof over thu
heart eff the wicked old African, an(
left its indelIble impress as evidence d
his future proprietary right to burn thu
old man to his hearts content.
