Two Interesting Letters.

The s. II. Wood Produce Company,
the well-known grain brokers in the
Guaranty Loan building. Minneapolis,
have just issued their regular monthly
market letter and their annual Christ
mas letter. The latter is entirely COM
plimentarY in it's nature, being a discus
sion of the present financial situation,
with the usual compliments of the sea-
son to the firms correspondents. Mr..
Wood suggests the issuing of currency
bills in place of gold and silver certifi-
Gates and national bank notes, these
currency notes to be redeemable In
part gold and part silver, and his basis
for issuing these is similar to the pres,
ent national banking system, except
that he would have good county, state
and city bonds, as well as United States
bonds, good for deposit, and any person
or corporation could deposit these with
the government and get currency bills.
Under the present system only banks
could do this, but under Mr.. Woods
plan any of our large trust companies,
or even mercantile houses, owning good
bonds and having immediate use for a
large amount of currency, could avail
themselves of the government minis.
Mr.. Wood also suggests the turning
over Of the railroad and telegraph SyS-
TENS 10 the government, or at leaSC The
trunk lines.
The plan is worthy of consideration,
and if discussed thoroughly might
bring desirable solution to the present
financial problem.
The monthly market letter is also a
valuable sheet, giving, as it does. the
worlds available supply OF wheat, COM
pared with December one year ago, and
much other valuable information for
the grain trade.
Five thousand copies of this letter are
issued and sent to the grain trade all
over the United States and Europe
every month.
Mr.. Wood says their letter next month
will be the best they have ever issued.
1t will contain the worlds supply cor
rected to date, and will tell what has be-
come of the visible during December
and January. 1t will also give the
earliest news regarding the new crop.

THE UNEMPLOYED.

Board OF Charities and Correc-
tions appeals TO the Council.
The board of charities and corrections
held its regular monthly meeting yes
terday and disposed of considerable
business. The important question be-
fore the board was what provision could
be made for assisting families needing
and because Of lack of work. At pres
ent there is no regulation providing for
the rendering of assistance unless there
is sickness or some other misfortune in
the family other than lack OF work. Last
month the poor department received 663
applications for help, and could relieve
only 209 of them.
Ii was finally decided to send COM
munication to the city council asking
that body to cooperate with the board
in deviSing some means of aiding the
poor people out of employment.
The budgets Of the workhouse, city
hospital and poor departments fer No
Vember were approved. They were con-
Siderably larger than usual in the latter
TWO departments.

"How 1T WAS DONE"
And What a Good Time the De-
tectives Had Abroad.

And What a Good Time the De-
tectives Had Abroad.
When Detectives Hoy and Lawrence
walked into police headquarters yester-
day their first appearance there caused
great commotion among the boys"
They were greeted heartily and noisily,
and their hands we'll nigh shaken off.
AN ow is hold h'England, h'any-
way" asked Capt. Helm. with the most
approved English accent.
"H'its hall right, Chappie, hold boy"
answered Mr.. Hoy.
And what's the matter with the
English Clothes" exclaimed another
officer, pointing at the two detectives;
and sure enough they were logged out
in stylish and substantial overc0ats and
suits, which they were enabled to buy
while out of the clutches of a robber
ariff.
I'VE staid on the other side seven
days" said Detective Lawrence, land
there was no red tape about getting pos
session of our prisoners. We were
splendidly treated, and saw all the
sights in London. We went to Paris,
too
paris is more beautiful city than
London, amt it," asked bystander.
c.
Say. john" appealing to Mr.. Hoy, "ain't
the girls prettier in London?'
After it was explained to Mr.. Law
renee that the question referred to the
architecture and the streets of Paris, he
admitted that that city had the advanl-
age. But both officers were enthusiastic
over England.
I'VE have been gone," said Detective
Hoy, "a lite over six weeks. We had
an awful tough chase after those fell
lows. We followed them from Oakdaie,
Tenn, to Chattanooga. They had
tWenty-four days the start of US, and
we were compelled to drive over the
territory with team, night and day,
rain and shine. From Chattanooga the
three went to Atlanta. Ga. From there
they shipped their goods to Augusta,
Ca, and afterwards. sent them to
Charleston. s. c. Then they pro-
ceeded to Richmond, Va, and from
there to Jersey City, shipping
their goods as they travelled.
From Jersey City they went to Brook
lyn. 1t was here that we were almost
stumped. They had only three days
to lind the truckman who carried their
outfit. We found him at last, and dis
covered that the stuff had been taken
to Martins store, in Brooklyn, and from
there removed to the Wadsworth, ship
bound for Brazil. They boarded the
Wadsworth, which broke down outside
the harbor aud had to put back. The
rest Of the story is known. When they
got back to the city, they found that the
pol'ce were after them, SO two of them
sailed in the Saale, while Lou Floyd
stayed behind, and Was about to cross
on another line when we arrested him."
Mr.. Kirby, of the Bank of Minneapo-
lis, accompanied Detectives Hoy and
Lawrence throughout their entire trip
across the Southern country. and also
met them at New York on their return
from England, and came back as far as
Chicago with the party, where Lieut..
Gov. Clough met them.
The bank has borne the entire ex-
pense of the chase, capture and return
of the three accused men. The cash
and personal property recovered will
foot up $4,000 or more, which is half
the amount Scheig took.
The case will probably be called to
>the attention of the grand jury today.

TO CoNrRoL PRICES.

a Combine of Thfeshing Machine
Owners to Push Business.
A meeting of the tEreshing machine
owners of the Northwest was held yes
terday afternoon at the Office of the
Minneapolis Threshing Machine COM
pany. Their object is to further perfect
all association by which they can con-
troll prices of work done by threshing
machines and men in the Northwest.
The movement is championed by G.
Sherman, of Sioux Falls, who stated
that, during the past season, threshing
machine owners and men materially
hurt the work by laboring in the thresh-
ing fields below living prices.
The threshing machine companies
were represented to give advice, and
have promised to aid the movement in
every way possible. An exclusive ac-
count of the movement appeared some
days ago in the GLOBE, ana, judging by
the success of yesterdays meeting, the
movement is bound to be a success.

MEXICAN TROUBLES.
Revolutionists Reported to Have
Hanged Gen. Viiada.

ASSDOEGco 10 nave
Hanged Gen. Viiada.
Ell PAso, Tex, Dec. IA letter has
just been received here from man now
in the state of Guerrero, who is engaged
in the disturbance headed by Gen. Ca
nutO Neri. He says Gen. Neri has not
surrendered, and his troops have not
been deserving him. On the contrary,
the revolutionists have recently cap
tured and hanged Gen. Vincente Vii
ada, of the federal army, formerly
supreme court judge. The revolution
lists dealt thus summarily with Gen.
Vilada because the federal troops have
hanged the few insurgents they have
captured, and left their bodies to rot in
the air. The writer of this letter, who
was formerly editor of paper in San
Antonio, says that the report that Gen,
Neri has been captured is entirely base
less, and has been circulated for the
purpose of diScOuraging his friends in
other states. This statement is in accord
with that of the Mexican official who
said that Gen. Neri was on his way by
sea to San Francisco.
Gov. Ahumada Is again in JuareZ, and
spent part of today in this city. In

he said that If he could hear OF any dis.
turbance in Chihuahua he would send
out his drum major to quell it. When
asked why his government had 600
troops in the mountains north and west
| of the city of Chihuahua, where it usu-
ally has none, he made no answer.
United States Consul Theodore Hus-
| ton today forwarded dispatch to the
state department setting forth the claim
| that the Mexican government in pro-
scribing the Times has Violated interna-
tional law, and done violence to bus
mess enterprise that has right to the
| protection of this government. The
matter is growing in Importance to
| other newspapers. inasmuch as Mexican
| official papers are printing the strongest
denunciations of the whole North Amer
lean press, indicating that all papers
that publish news of the revolution are
liable to the same treatment that has
| been accorded to the Times. In fact, it
is possible other papers have been pro-
| scribed, and they will not know it until
their subscribers begin to file COM
| plants, as no official notice is served in
| such cases,

An Athletic Combine.

1t looks now as if a general combine
is contemplated between the several
athletic societies of the university. At
meeting of the University Base Ball
association, held yesterday morning, a
committee consisting of Messrs. Pa
quin, c. Larson and Northway was APP
pointed to confer with similar commit
tees from the other athletic organiza-
tions of the U in regard to the advisa-
bility of consolidating all branches of
athletics under one organization. This,
it is thought, will do away with many
or all of the Objectionable features of
the present system.
