MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Government Report Causes Wide
Fluctuations in Grain Prices.

There was a good deal Of excitement in
the pit The government report showed a
condition of I'll for winter wheat. This was
considered bulllsh, and the crowd bought
the market up about &c at the opening.
Every one was in want Of wheat, and the
big fellows at Chicago were no doubt SELL
ing. The high point for the day was soon
reached when such liquidation as has not
been seen in a long time set in and the very
under pinning seemed to have been knocked
out from under prices. The decline in May
wheat to 60Ec was rapid.
The difference between May wheat and
July wheat here is now. and has been all
along, about 112c. At the present time, IN
der present conditions, there is money in 1t
for the elevators to carry the wheat sold
for May delivery over to July, and it is
believed that most of them will do it. Re-
ceipts of wheat were S44 cars. Shipments
of wheat were 80 cars. Flour output for week
ending April 4. 100000 bbls.

The Government VIII Help Only
Those Who Help Themselves.

WICHITA, Kan, April 11.-An experiment
toward overcoming the natural Discrimination
to work Of the American Indians is being
tried at the Cheyenne agency in Oklahoma.
In compliance with a suggestion from the
Indian commissioner, Capt. L. E. Woodson,
of the Fifth United States cavalry, the In
dian agent has issued orders to the superln-
tendents Of the farming districts to keep
record Of the names of all able-bodied male
Indians above the age Of eighteen years who
do not perform regular manual labor Such
are to be reported to him at the end of the
month, with the view to having the issuing
of rations to such Indians stopped. In his
instructions relative to the order, Capt. Wood
son says:
1.-THE Indians should be made to understand
that the government will help those who help
themselves but that those who refuse to
work when they are able to do so. and those
who will not be guided by the advice and in
structions issued from this Office for their
welfare, will no longer be led at public ex-
pense. OF course the old people and the chill
dren, and those who are disabled by infirmity
or disease, will Re fed as usual, as long as
supplies for such purpose are furnished.
