on the contrary, it is asking them to act
like men, to lead manly lives and not
condemn themselves to lead the lives OF

United States God send it soon) they
should be sent to fight their own kith

would be ready to lay down their lives?
With what spirit could they raise their
hands to tear down our glorious flag OF
stars and stripes which shelters beneath
it's blessed folds millions Of the Irish
race, and of every other people. who
have fled from oppression? But the past
is behind us, and our minds are fixed OH

FLAx-Receipts are so small as to rem

though offerings at Chicago and elsewhere
are running small, prices do not improve.
The. local quotation is still made on the
basis Of about SIC under Chicago price.
BARLEY-There is no regular market
for this grain. Quality and demand are so
irregular as to make basis for quotation
impossible to find. The nominal quotation
stands at 1S@21c, according to quality,
without regard to grade.
CORN-The supply SMALL but the mills
want little, and the price OF cash corn has
net responded to the advance in futures.
In fact, spot corn is a little easier, if any,
thing. No. 8 yellow is quoted at 2sc, with
holders asking 231Ac early for some choice
samples No. 8 is quoted at around &c.
OATS-Samp offerings this morning
are somewhat light and prices ruled firm.
The mills We're in the market for fair guam
titles and shippers and carriers were in
want of supplies. Holders were asking as
high as TING for this grade, either by sam

to quality. and the price ranges according

THE MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.
FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.

FI,OUR-The advance and excitement
in the wheat markets have brought good
deal of correspondence and inquiries. at
the mills concerning -four, but the actual
orders are running even smaller than they
were before the upturn began. The price
of flour has been advanced fully loo per
barrel and this has checked what little
specula tive buying that has been going on
and at the same time prevented others
from coming into the market for flour,
which they can get along without for some
little time yet. It has reduced the buying
to actual and immediate wants and as Is
generally the case the flour trade has little
confidence in the present prices and is
Bound to see very closely TO the bottom
of their supplies before replenisling
stocks. Foreigners are taking less than
was the case a day or SO ago, because the
European markets have not advanced SO
rapidly as has been the case on this. side,
and we are now scarcely now on an export
basis. The local millers, however. are i1-
clined to look upon the situation as eD-
couraging, as they claim that from now
forward the trade with the winter wheat
country is bound to increase until the next
crop of that wheat is: harvested. Stocks
of available wheat down there are growing
less each week, and with many sections al
ready Without supplies, mills are closing
down or running on hard spring wheat,
which is scarcely giving satisfaction as 1t
cannot be properly ground in a winter
wheat mill Some large sales have been
made for foreign account at rather low
prices, but it may doubted that they could
be duplicated now, although the. n1illsl at

The market has been most nervous and
erratic during the entire session, with rap
id fluctuations within the range Of half a

wires east Of Chicago were working badly,
it looked at one time as if the market were
going to pieces, but just before the close
prices braced up. and the close was at a
loss Of only Bc for the day. The market
opened at 5S1ac, sold down to $3.50, back
to $3.50, down to 5sss@5S1ac, back to 585sc,

1888 was restored. One tumbles up the
narrow, winding stairs, leaving below
the modern restaurant, passes through
low doorways that show walls 3 feet In
thickness and enters the hall, a great
room lighted by high windows and a
beautiful oriel. In the restoration the
old features have been retained, and at
one end is the minstrel's gallery, look
