AN erroneous report il i,eirg circa-
lated among the farnie,s to the ef-
feet that the Warren Board Of Trade
have compromised with the elevators
and bncked down from their original
position. There is M truth in this,
whatever. The only thing the Board
has done, Inns beet, to rlisclaiin aliy
intention to hoyrDtt the elevators,
that idea having gone abroad, con-
veyed, perhaps, by Mr.. Glasin'e cir
cnlar. OF course the only aim OF the
Board OF Trade has been, and still is,
to secure honest grading and a fair
market price for the farmers wheat.
All measures taken by them have
had that in view. For that reason
they secured the services Of Ar,
Glavin TO assist the farmers i,eorder.
ing cars and shipping their own
grain, and he is stillacting in that
capacity. Mr., Glavin's report, which
we publish this week. proves conclu-
sivcly the greet benefit derived from
this agency. Other towns along the
line, notably Argyle, have patterned
after the Warren idea, and appoint
ell agents. Why the elevators com
pahies gave up their idea Of putting
in general store here is due, per
''aps, to several causes. 1t E ay have
been q big game Of bluff on their
their part, or they may hive con-
Guided that it would have been Il
poor business move, as it certainly
would have been, or the hostility to
he scheme OF the farmers themselves
nay have scared them. eve have
too much monopoly now; would
puy nothing in that store, no not
ia hundred years. was the way
me farmer expressed himself. No.
Chere has been no hack down BY the
Warren Board al Trade.

GLAvIN's REPORT.
Grain Committee Of Board Of Trade,
,GENTLENEN

GENTLEMEN:
In submitting my report of the work done b,
rho Agency established to facilitate the inde
| oendent shipment OF wheat on track in War
| zen, beg leave to thank you for the confidence
| manifested BY the appointment. also for the
helpful advice given by your committee. which
ogethsr with the active assistance rendered b,
Tho president Of the Warren Board Of Trade
contributed largely to the acknowledged sue
,ess OF the Agency.
Upon assuming the duties for which appoint
cd, found that q very large percentage OF the
wheat naturally tributary to Warren was beins
Inverted from this market to East Grand Forks
and the Keystone extension OF the N. P. Il. r.
The local wheat buyers here when confronted
| with this unbusinesslike deprivation Of ou1
wheat market, alleged two distinct rsasons FOL
its diversion: LIST: Discrimination in terminal
inspection Of wheat from Warren, as compared
with wheat from East Grand Forks and the
Keystone Extension. End inadequate car
supply to keep the elevators all open.
1t is apparent from the subsequent knowl.
edge impasted in Q letter from tho Chief Inspec.
tor Of Grain. and the immediate recovery Of our
wheat market, that the elevator representatives
were mistaken in their reasons given above.
Perhaps in reaching these conclusions they
were largely Influenced BY tho glowing reports
received from farmers who sold their wheat at
those favored" markets. These reports were
in some instances contradictory and bOrlered
largely upon exaggeration. The inadequate car
supply undoubtedly had depressing effect np-
on the market, but under ordinary and fair bus
mess rules this would not have occurred. but
the trouble was more on account Of the mis-
management OF the elevators. some receiving
grain only when others were hllel, thas clepriy.
ing tho market Of any healthy competition
this unWarranted procedure provoked more Ill
feeling aud occasioned moro protests from farm.
.rs against our market than all other evils com
oined.
a letter complaining Of the treatment we were
receiving from the Railroad Company aud at
the terminals was dispatched to the Governor.
His reply, together with letters from Chief In
speetor Clauscn and the Board of RAILROAD ami
Warehouse Commissioners are herewith sub.
nittcd, as part of this report.
Tie circular letter addressed to the iarmers
making known the establishment Of the Agency

Elevators and to shiI, their wheat on tract met

sty to deluge the whole city, aud causing tho
,nly actual blockade Of the season. In atidi-
zion, the elevators, although complaining bit

we're largely influenced by 1t. Aside from rails.

recover back the wheat. they tried to enforce

YREKA, Cal, Aug. 2T.--About o'clock
Monday morning a crowd of $50 men
gathered here to lynch the four MUIR
derers in the county Jail. So quietly
were their preparations made, that the
sheriff had no intimation of their com
ing. Small groups from all over Siski-
you county began to arrive on the out.
skirts of the town about . o'clock Sun.
day night At o'clock the crowd hav.
ing gathered they secured an old rail
at the depot and carried it to the court
house square, placing il between two
trees. The local police were called
away by sham fight. BY the time
they returned they realized the inten'
ton of the crowd.
Having no keys to the cells the mob
was compelled to smash the locks
with sledge- hammers. Lawrence H
Johnston, who stabbed his wife tc
death on July %, first received the at
tention of the mob. They broke the
lock from the door of his cell and plac
ing a rope around his neck led him out
of the Jail and across the street tc
where the iron rail was laid between
the forks of two trees. Johnston
pleaded for mercy, but the silent gath
ering gave no heed to his appeals. H'
was quickly strung up, dying from
strangulation.
The mob then returned to the jai
and broke into the cell of William Null
who shot Henry Hayton on April 81
Null asked to make statement, but the
