GRANGER OF THE NORTHWEST
CONFIDENT OF A RISE IN
PRICE.
MlLLER'S DARING ESCAPE.
LEAPS THROUGH A CAR WINDOW

TRAIN

DULUTH, Mimi, Oct. 14.-There is
are holding back their wheat on ac-
count of low prices prevailing and
marketing their coarse grain instead.
For several days past the receipts of
wheat in this market have fallen be-
low those of last year. Receivers say
that offerings are daily growing
lighter, and the daily sales here sup
port the statement. On the other hand
there has been a more than corre-
spending increase in coarse grains,
though the daily reports of car in
Spection do not show as large a total
for all grain receipts. During the
first eleven days of the month the re-
ceipts of fax were equal to nearly
two-thirds the total amount received
during the full month of September.
The quantity received during Septem-
ber was S1666 bushels, which was
more than came here during the entire
crop last year, while for the first eleven
days of October the receipts were
527,S70 bushels. The same proportion
prevails with regard to all coarse
grains except rye. The receipts of oats
for eleven days of October have been
56,699 bushels, as compared with ST.
245 bushels during the entire month of
September. Barley receipts during Oc-
tober thus far have been 356, 253 bush
els, while the total for the month of
September was only 510,777 bushels. OF
course it is not reasonable to fear
that the wheat movement will continue
relatively small for any length of
time. Farmers who are averse to sell
ing their wheat for ruling prices, and
have coarse grains to sell, will send
the latter to market now and hold the
wheat for the reason that the coarse
grains command relatively much
higher values in this market than
wheat. There is the further reason
that fax cannot be held in the stack,
as wheat can with safety from dam
age by the elements. Grain men be-
leve that the heavy movement of
coarse grains will be practically over
before the 18th of next month, and
the early closing of navigation is
likely to spur shippers on to make
inducements for a larger movement
of wheat during the first half of No
vember, if the market should demand,
which is entirely likely.

FARMERS CONGRESS REFUSES
TO ADOPT A FREE SILVER
RESOLUTION.
DEFEATED BY 147 VOTES.
ALMOST SOLIDLY AGAINST
1T.
GEORGIA DELEGATES SPLIT.
Request to President Cleveland to
Call an International None
>Rry Conference

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 14.-Soon aft
er the Farmers national congress
resumed its meetings this morning
a sensation was sprung in the form
OF fight on free silver, which re-
suited in the complete defeat of the
16 to l forces. By vote of 251 9-14
to lO4 OLA the congress refused to
insert the words "at a ratio not to
exceed 16 to T. in resolution ask
ing congress to use both gold and
silver on parity and calling for an
international conference on the mon
etary question.
The resolution was one which had
just come from the committee on res
olutions and was reported favorably.
1t was offered by ]. G. Offut, prom
lnent delegate from Indiana In SUBJ
stance it deprecated the present con-
d1tlon of finances in this country,
and called upon the president of the
United States to call an interna-
tlonal congress of all nations will
ing to unite in the equal use of both
gold and silver. Then the free sill
yer delegates wanted the paragraph
changed to willing to unite in the
equal use Of both gold and silver at
a ratio not to exceed 16 to II
Numbers of delegates Jumped to
their feet, and it was soon evident
that the congress was opposed to
the amendment. The question was
first put viva voce, and the noes had
it evidently. A vote by states was
called for, and resulted in the rejec-
t1on of the amendment by a vote of
Psi 9-14 to 104 5-14. Georgia's dele
cation was divided. The states known
as the silver states favored the
amendment, and the East, North
and South voted almost solidly
against it. The fight was made
square1y on the merits of the question
and the issue was in no way clouded
with parliamentary technicalities.
The victory of the sound money
element in the congress was en-
phasjzed later in the day, when a.
resolution declaring opposition to
the further issue of interest-bearing
treasury bonds or notes under any
circumstances was lost. A reso-
luton favoring congressional enact
ment against the beef trust was
adopted.

CAUGHT A GHOUL.
Madison the Hiding Place of u Des
MOines Grave RObber.

MADISON, Wis, Oct. H.-A man CIV
ing the name of John Mockler, but who
is believed to be DR.. John w. Overton,
of Des Moines, To-, was sentenced to
ten days impr, sonment in the county
Jail this morning for drunkenness. In
February, 1893, DR.. John w. Overton,
instructor in the medical department
of Drake university; John w. Schaffer,
observer at the United States signal
service station; ]. w. Martin, a host
Ter, and j. E. Sloan, a liveryman, were
accused by the Des Mo.nes police Of
ficers charged with robbing the grave
of an old soldier. A cab driver, who
had been asked to help the ghouls, but
backed out, tipped off the robbery to
the police, and the four men were ar
rested with the corpse in their pos
session. Overton was released on bail
and disappeared, as did also Schaffer.
Charges were not preferred against the
other two men. Mockler has been in
Madison for about a week, living on
charity. Although poorly dressed, he
Isl an intelligent looking man, about
fifty years of age, and the Madison Of
fcers are confident he is the person the
Iowa authorities have so long been
looking for. Sheriff McGarraugh, of
Des Moines, will come here tonight
with a requisition for Overton.

TERRORS OF DYNAMITE.
ten. Cnmpos Trying to Stop thS
Rebel Oufraoes

HAVANA, Oct. 1.-THE recent use OF
dynamite by the insurgents along tho
me OF the railroad is causing the au-
thcrlueS grave uneasineSs and if has
been considered necessary to emplov
some special measures to suppress the
practice. Considerable damage has
been done and fears are fslt that great
er harm may come from the practice.
Captain General Martinez de Campos
has published an order that all trees and
bushes shall be cut down and all huts
shall be removed within a distance of
200 yards of the railroad track on both
sides. 1t is further ordered that no one
shall be allowed to approach the trains.
Violators of these orders are to be
summarily courtmartialed.
Capt. Gen. de Compos also pub
fishes an order which proclaims that he
will continue his practice of pardoning
all rebels who lay down their arms and
surrender themselves to the authorities,
except the chiefs. These latter ere to be
subject to the decision of the captain
general, who will investigate to ascer-
tain whether any of them have been
guilty of outrage in the conduct of the
investigation.
AS a further warning against the
use of dynamite, severe Spanish laws,
enacted in 1884 as a result of the out
rage at Barcelona, are to be published
here.

NO VOTES FOR WOMEN.
Warm Contest on the Question In
Massachusetts


BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 14-The Massa-
chusetts Man Suffrage association has
opened headquarters at z A Park
street, in this city, and is preparing to
make an active campaign against
woman suffrage in municipal politics.
The following circular, signed by 100
prominent men of the state, was issued
tonight:
ITO the People of Massa chusetts.
law was passed by the last legislature
providing that all persons qualified to
vote for school committee at the ap-
proachlng state election, whether male
or female, shall have an opportunity
at that election to express their opin-
ion, Is it expedient that mutual suff-
rage be granted to women?'
The question is of great and far
reaching Importance To create condr-
uons which suggest that the power to
make the laws may be in a BODY diff
ferent from that which has the power
TO enforce the laws is Objectionable
TO more than double the total number
OF voters is in itself no advantage.
women, as compared with men, have
mad but little experience in private or
trust or corporate business affairs Our
CITY and town governments are great
public business corpora tions. We sub
init, therefore, that the rights and prop
erty of our citizens, female as well as
male, are better protected and more
lntelligently cared for than they would
be by esta ablishing women suffrage.
I'VE submit that woman suffrage
will not prove a benefit, but rather an
injury. to the family, which is the
base OF growth and prosperity of the
state. For the welfare Of the commu-
nifty as a whole We urge those who
vote, whether men or women, to vote
no."
Among the more prominent names
attached to the circular are those of
ex-Gov. George D. Robinson, ex-Gov.
Russell, Hon. L. Jefferson Coolidge, ex-
United States minister to France
Charles w. Elliott, president of Har-
ward college, and Hon. Eben s. Draper.
ex-chairman of the Republican state
