MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Speculative Wheat Slow and ON q
Lower Level.

There was light trade today in specula-
tive wheat with prices on a lower level than
yesterday. Outsiders were content to do moth

keep in the short side. Reports from the
northwest were inclined to attract consider
able attention, being generally 10 the effect
that work has again beer checked but there
were plenty of people with the opinion that

Vanced as 1t was year ago at that time with

Illinois Crop Report.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-The Illinois weekly
crop report says: The past week has been
highly favorable over the northern section
of the state, favorable over the west and
north portions of the central section, and
rather unfavorable over the balance OF the
state, according to the distribution OF rain
fall. Wheat and rye continue to do well;
oats are above ground and in rainy sections
doing well; considerable corn has been plant
ed in the southern counties while land is
generally in readiness in central and north
ern, with some planting done in central coun-
ties. Chinch bugs are Matching in large
numbers and cause much uneasiness; heavy
rains are needed to destroy them and re-
lieve the growing dryness.

North Dakota Crop Report Cheerful
In It's Tone.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, N. D., April 2S.-The past
week has been, as rule, very favorable for
Il farm work, except in the northeastern part
of the state, where heavy rains have delayed
operations The last three days of the week
were warm and pleasant, and considerable
seeding was done then, particularly In the
southern and southeastern parts OF the state.
All reports agree that the ground is in the
best condition as regards moisture, that It
has been for years, and, although the season
is somewhat later than usual, there Will be
no delay in terminating the grain very soon
after It is sown. Grain that was grown
week ago In Stark county is up already, and
that sown in the southern part of the state
is sprouting.
With a few warm days this week, great
deal of grain will be sown, and the outlook
at present is very favorable.

COLUMBIA RUN DOWN.
merchant Vessel to Blame and Re-
ceived the Worst of If.


NORFOLK, Va. April 2s.-While the Old
dominion steamer Wyanoke was making for
the Newport News pier this morning, she
struck the PROV of the United States steamer
columbia, lying at anchor, and had a hole
cut IN the forward part of her starboard side.
and sunk in about a quarter of an hour in
sixty feet Of water. All of the Wyanoke's
passengers and crew were saved, but the
baggage is all lost and probably the cargo
also The f1remen were badly scalded, but
beyond this no further injuries are reported.
The Columbia was anchored very near the
pier and was not seen from the Wyanoke on
account Of the brilliancy of the electric lights
on the pier.
1t is believed the blame must rest on the
officers of the Wyanoke, unless it can be
shown that the Columbia was anchored in a
dangerous position. The naval vessel un-
doubtedly was very lucky in coming out of
the collision as well as she did. She is a
triple screw cruiser, and next to the Min
neapolis- her sister ship, the feetest cruiser
In the United States navy, or indeed in the
world Fortunately the Columbia is fitted
with big steel zSram, and the additional
strength given to, her bow by this. it Is
thought, saved the vessel from more serious
and perhaps Vital injury.

May IA and Is are the dates set for the re-
sumption of the Minneapolis & st. Louis ex-
cursions for business men, at points in Iowa
to st. Paul and Minneapolis. Some time ago
several of these excursions brought a large
number of Iowa merchants in closer touch
with the jobbers of the Twin Cities and the
railroad people and jobbers both agree that
closer relations will result in mutual ad-
vantage. In fact, as result of the past ex-
cursions large amount of additional mer-
chandise has been carried and some of the
local wholesale houses have sent travelling
men into territory which has heretofore been
tributary to Chicago For the date men
toned rates ranging from So to S. will be
made and tickets will be good for four days,
thus giving the visitors time to spend here
making their purchases.
The points from which merchants are ex-
pected are all north of Des Moines, and in
clude Angus, Dayton, Ogden, Pilot Knob,
Fort Dodge, Badger, Humboldt, Corwith,
Britt, Livermore, Forest City and Lake Mills.
