At the opening of the wheat market
there was continuance of the weak
ness OF Monday, with the downward
tendency more pronounced. There was
nothing in the way of news of an en-
cOuragin9 nature. Cables advised Of
weak and lower markets in both Liver
pool and London, and also a lower
tendency in nearly all tho French mar
kets. Domestic news was no better
New York and Chicago were both weak.
Large receipts of wheat were reported
at many winter wheat points, the grow,
ing crops in the Northwest were said to
be improving and that the yield would
be far larger than expected in many
sections, and last that difficulties in eX-
changes of credit between the West and
the East made it almost impossible to do
business even at the present range of
values. The only piece of bull news
received was the crop reports of Kan
Sas, illinois and Michigan. Wheat
ranged as follows:
August-Closing. 5315c. September

HE LOST HIS COIN.
A Good Railroader Proves a Poor
Cow Manager.

A Good Railroader Proves a Poor
Cow Manager.
John i. Wickery, the commercial
agent of the Wisconsin Central line, is
not only good railroad man, but is
also well posted OH high-bred dogs and
sporting matters generally. Along
with his other acquisitions, corporeal
and incorporeal, he acquired cottage
and COW at White Bear. where he
could really enjoy life, "far from the
madding crowd" The bovine, with
that unreasonable pertinacity to wander
that cows often have. declined to re-
main in her pasture, but longed for a
more Succulent greensward. So "Wick"
tethered her to stake, but she out
witted him and got away. He was hot
on her trail, and soon hemp connec-
ton between man and cow was estab-
lished.
Unfortunately, this extended across
the right of way of the st. Paul & Du-
luth company. "Wick' applied all the
pet names within his limited knowledge
of COW literature to induce the COW to
come over on his side of the track, but
she was perverSe creature and dallied
with fate. All at once train came in
sight, and wick" had a conundrum to
solve. If he let the train run over the
rope it would get cut in two and the.
COW would escape. He dared not, nor.
could he get the animal over to his side
OF the tracks before the train would be
down on them both. Here was di-
lemma. He thought fast, as the per-
SEPARATION c0ursed down his classic
profile, and finally decided, as the story
goes 20 hold up the rope. He expected
TO work up to the track and to signal
the engineer to stop so he could cross
over Oh the cows side.
Alas for the frailty of human expecta-
lions! The tfain came bounding along.
The rope was up just high enough to
catch the tender of the engine. Then
began pro badly the hottest sprinting
match ever recorded. The COW devel-
open unsupported qualities of speed, and
Mr.: Wickery, for a short distance,
cell psed the records of Goldsmith Maid,
Maud 5, or any other of the great flyers.
At last the race ended, fatally for pthe
cow, however, which was killed. and
Mr. Wickery had quite narrow es-
cape. 1t is said that he now proposes
to bring all action for damages against
the Duluth road for the killing of his
cow.
