THE DEMAND FOR CASH WHEAT
NOW A FACTOR IN THE nAi,Nrr

Liquidation in December Contract.

Chicago. Ill.,. Dec. Ito L. 6. Ne
Peak & Co. commission merchants:
a good trade has been transacted in
wheat the past week. regardless Of
the narrow range TO which prices have
been conhened. The weakness devel-
oped recently on the continuous iIqui-
dalton OF December contracts has been
almost entirely eliminated and the
market shows a gradual hardening up.
Investment buying is again apparent,
and with the development Of further
stimulus In the way Of brisk export
trade, TO reduce our stock which Is
heavy. better prices should prevail.
Adviees Indicate that farmers deliver
les in the Northwest are unusually
light for this season Of the year. Du-
lutli shows marked falling on the
past lew days, and we believe from
now on they will gradually cease to
pc inc factor they have been. Tile
demand for the cash commodity both

continues undated. and proves
strong feature. Many SPECTATORS who
iau TO realize in few days what
would be reasonable advance for q
Few months, are inclined TO dump their
holdings, and this in conjunction with
me bears. retards the progress OF q
null movement. which. appearances
show is now under way Cables Keep
strong and continue 10 show liberal
advances. Foreigners have been eager
buyers Of cash wheat on this side and
although olearances for the week are
disappointing at but 1861 900 bushels,
considerable stun is being shipped from
me coast to China and japan. Advices
from across the water indicate a soar
city of wheat for immediate wants.
Cash is bringing a premium over fu-
lures in the United kingdom. while
stocks over the entire continent con-
tiuue 10 show n decrease. Beerbohm
says stocks OF wheat in French ports
are in the neigrborh0od OF 1000, 900
less than during the same time last
year while reports have come that
Sweden and other countries in North
ern Europe are using wheat for animal
food. Yours truly.

Trans-Mississippi Congress.

SAN Francisco, CAL, Feb. T.-At a
recent session of the trans Mississippi
congress, the committee on organization
reported against Gov. McConnell's sug-
gestion as to the appoin tment OF per-
manent secretary to live in Washington
and carry out the trans Mississippi
codgress recommenda tons, because no
one man can be found who will know
all about the many questions consider
ed by the congress,
This afternoon the congress met at
the Mid Winter Fair, where G.. w.
Thompson of California spoke in favor
of free coinage of silver and gold. He
was followed by Alexander Majors of
Colorado, who also advocated the equal
coinage of gold and silver and stated
thatuntil-the Observation-Disclosures the
free coinage of the latter, there was no
possible hope of business improvement
and the condition of the people being
ameliorated. D. S. Grimes of Denver
then addressed the assemblage, indors-
ing Majors views. The congress adj
opted resolution thanking Majors for
his very able remarks, after which the
delegates adjourned to the Vienna Pra-
ter where they dined as guests of the
San Francisco delegation. In the even
ing the congress witnessed special
display of fireworks in its honor.

Gold Output Of the World.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-Returns re-
ceived at the treasury department indi-
cate that the gold output for 1898 will
reach the almost Unprecedented amount
of S37 900, 900, an increase over 1892 of
81 900, 900. In Colorado the output has
increased from S3, 900 900 in 1892 to S5,-
600 in 1898. while the gains in gold pro-
duclng sections is unusually large The
Australian productions will carry the
production of the world, it is thought,
to $3.50, 900, 900, which is an increase of
S12 600 900 for the year. With one or
two exceptions this is the largest output
ever known
The gold fields of South Africa seem
to be rapidly taking the place of the
California and Australia fields and the
bonanza fields of the present decade.
Reports from the Witwatersrandt re-
gion alone show a total product for 1893
Of AS, ,476 ounces of ore, yielding
product of refined gold of a value in ex-
cess of S25 100000. The production in
this region is increasing at an astonish-
ing rate and South Africa bids fair dur
ing the present year to push her way to
the head Of the list of gold producing
countries.
The figures for 1892 put Australia at
the head of the list with production
of S33, $50 900, the United States second
at s33 900 900, Russia third at S24 $780,
200 and Africa fourth at S23, ,7O6 600.
The full returns from South Africa
for 1898 will probably show q produc-
ton in excess of $50, GOO 600, which will
force her into third place, and if the IN
crease continues she will pass Russia
during 1894, and will be beaten in the
United States in aggres Gate production
only by means of large increase in
this country.
The production of silver, according
to the reports received at the mint, has
fallen off during the year and will not
exceed Sl75 900 900 in coming value for
1898. AS the coming value is now more
than twice the market value, the actu-
al mercantile value of the silver mined
would drop below $50 100000.

STARR'S MONEY DIVIDED.
JUDGE PARKER RENDERED HIS DECISION
AS TO THE PROPER DIVISION OF
The Money Taken from Starr and Wilson When
Captured at Colorado Springs, last Fall.

FORT SMITH, Feb. 16.-The evil suit
involving division of the money found
on Henry Starr when he was arrested
has at last been settled. 1t grew ont
of the robbery Of the Peoples Bank at
Bentonvile by the Starr gang. The
bank lost $ll 900. and the money found
on Starr Was all that has ever been re-
covered.
At the time Of the arrest Of Starr and
Wilson in Colorado City, last Julv.
Starr had in his possession 5000, in new
bank bills and gold This money was
expressed here to Marshal Crump 81
await the order Of the court. The
bills answered the description of those
stolen by Starr and his bald from the
bank on the afternoon of June 5, 1898.
AS soon as the money arrived here it
was attached by the Peoples Bank, of
Bentonville, 10 Johnson appearing as
attorney for the bank. The bills cor
responded in numbers to those stolen
from the bank and the case was so
plain on the behalf of the plaintiff that
Starr never made any defense. Several
in ntervenors petitions were filed and to
pass upon these was the question that
required Judge Parker's closest stten-
ton. Judge Parker rendered his decis-
ion in favor of the bank for the money
less the expenses of the trial to recover
the money. These were s. 60 to Col.
Crump for express charges on the mon
ey from Colorado City; S3l to Gen.
Wheeler, clerks fees; $l5 to q. f. Rider
for his services as stenographer; Sl03
to the Peoples Bank for expenses of
gathering testimony, and $3.50 to 10
Johnson for services as attorney III
bringing the proceedings.
This left 81 $40 10 for the bank. l..
c. Dana and the policemen, who made
the arrest, and Vim. Fuerestine, who
gave the officers information upon
which the arrest was made, also filed
interventions. By the terms of the re-
ward offered by the bank the officers ar
resting the robbers were to receive one
half of the money recovered and Judge
Parker ordered the 81 $50 40 divided
between the bank and Dana, and order
ed that 800 of the share given to Dana
should be paid to the executors of VIM.
Feurestne.
AS the bank has agreed to pay Henry
Starr $3.50, if his attorneys would not
contest the case, the bank will recover
little less than $3.50. The banks at
torney contended that the sum should
be deducted as expenses, but Judge
Parker thought it was private agree
ment and that he had no right to pass
upon it, as Starts attorney did not file
their claim.
