RIVER IS Rising,
But 1t Is Only Three Feet in a
Week.

The stage of water in the river is now 6.6
feet a rise of 80 feet over this period last
week. When the thaw first set in the earlier
days of last week, the stage Of the water at
St. Paul was estimated at S.3 feet. There
has been a gradual rise ever since. The ice,
which is nearly three feet in thickness, is
rising with the water.
The first real effects of the thaw were felt
yesterday when the waters from the upper
part of the state reached st. Paul. 1t requires
about six days for a rise in the level to reach
this city. There have been no additions to
the waters since Saturday, the thaw has
practically been checked since that time
The highest water known in st. Paul was in
1881, when the stage reached 1875 feet. The
weather department does not anticipate any
trouble until the ice goes out, and the regu-
lar spring breakup commences.
The ice went out of the Minnesota river
yesterday and caused considerable damage.
The tracks of the Omaha road, however, were
reported as being out of danger. The flats
on the west side of the river at Mankato
were submerged yesterday afternoon, and one
man was drowned while trying to escape the
flood The water at Mankato has not been so
high since 1883.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.

MINNEAPOLIS. March 23-Butter is a
shade frmer. Extra creameries are cleaning
up a trife better, and the price is 1b01c
higher. Firsts are higher in sympathy with
extras. Arrivals of medium and low grades
have been running Eight of late and this has
diverted buying to the choice grades. Seconds
and thirds are strong at quotations. The
demand is better for dairies with the retail
trade absorbing about all offered. Roll and
print of the choice sweet grade is in big re-
quest. Ladies are steady and not plentiful.
Fresh packing stock is 12c higher. Advices
from the East say the export call is steadily
improving.
The demand for eggs from jobbers was not
quite as large as it has been running of late
although what sales were made were at 10c
The call from retailers is fair and there is
a moderate shipping movement.
The market is becoming glutted with
dressed chickens and fowls. and indications
point to lower values. Turkeys are moving in
a fair way and are in moderate receipt
Ducks and geese are steady.
Veal is cleaning up well. Mutton and lamb
are moderately firm. Dressed hogs are selling
well.

Although the seyeEal selections of packer
hides are from 80 to AZ per cent higher than

per cent higher than at this time in 1894,
there seems no tendency to shade prices. On
the contrary some selections have actually
brought an advance For the first time in
the history of the strade, light Texas steer
hides were sold this week at IA cents pre-
MUM over tie heavy selection. About 1000
OF the heavyweights drought SIC, while
100 lightweights realized S1ac. Another high
price mark was the sale of two cars of Col
orado steer hides at 724c. The country hides
market is firm and unchanged. Leather
sells slowly at firm prices. There are con-
slant rumors of advances, but as a rule the
tanners are selling at the rates that have
