MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 13.-The local wheat
market opened weak and lower this morning,
because of discouraging cables from Liver
pool London and Paris together with re-
ported large receipts at primary points The
trade too, was a little at sea about the
visible supply. On Saturday decrease of
1000, coo bu was expected. This morning it
appeared doubtful as to whether there would
be a decrease at all. These. estimates were
very confusing, and in the absence of any
speculative demand the market ruled both
weak and inactive up to midsession The
worlds shipments were reported at S,S00000
bu, or nearly LOCO coo blu more than expected,
the Baltic showing up with 1892 600 blu for the
week. These shipments from Russia rather
bellies the sensational report of last week
about the enormous shortage in that country.
Paris cables, too, reported that France would
have to import 20 GOO, 900 quintals. "a quintal
is hundredweight) A week ago these wants
were placed at 60, O00, OG0 to $4,000 900 bu, and
some as high as 100000, 900 bu. The present
figures are perhaps more nearly correct.
Whether true or false, it shows clearly that
figuring on crops before they are ripe is
totally unreliable and should not receive
that credence which they enjoy from time to
tome. A little more crop expert absurdities
will work it's own cure later on. The visible
supply statement was posted about IL a.
M. showing an increase of $3.50 Blu. This
was depressing factor on the market al
though it was to large extent expected.

EazIeton Tragedy Denounced by
the Social Democracy

the Social Democracy.
CHICAGO, Sept. 13.-Meetings of the
various branches .of the newly-orgar-
lied Social Democracy were held last
night to discuss the recent Hazleto
Pa, tragedy, and some decidedly lu-
rid language was INDUCED in by the
speakers. Resolutions were passed by
Branch No. 2, which contained the
following:
1.-The blood of an idle and useless
aristocracy is the most convenient me-
dunn for nourishing the tree of liberty.
An eye for an eye and a tooth for
a tooth. For every miner killed and
wounded, millionaire should be treat
ed in the same manner. The million
slaughter of Sept. 10 and we regard
the torch as the most successful weap-
on to WELD against them
Fitzgerald Murphy, president of
Branch No. 2, made a speech in which
he said: The miners should carry
arms and use them, too The time
has come to meet force with force. 7
should have told them to shoot to
kill. I would kill twenty millionaires
today"
Strong condemnatory resolutions
were also passed by Branch No. 1.
and some fiery speeches made. T. P.
Quinn said: II will not carry mus
ket: I will carry a torch and knife,
and I will carry both as far as L can.
Leroy NJ Goodwin, E. V. Debs' right
hand man and a director of the ma
tional board of the Social Democracy
in the course OF a speech, said: 81
would attack property with the torch;
I would destroy their fine places. Let
us rebel when men are shot down as
they were in Pennsylvania
Several indignation meetings were
held in the Polish quarters, and resolu-
tions passed condemning the shooting
of the Hazelton miners, and appealing
to the United States government for
protection.

VERGE OF STARVATION.
The Pangs of aFaniine Already Felt
inn Ireland.


LONDON, Sept. 13.-John E. Red
mond, the Parfellite leader and mem
Der of parliament for Waterford in ali
interview uponethe' prospects of fam
inc in Ireland2e is quoted as sayinS;
1.-The failure Of the crops, especially
the potato crop, means that large
section of the tpeople of Ireland viii
soon be on the verge of starvation.
1t is already reported that the inhab-
itants of many places in Connaught
are eating bread, which, in ordinary
times, is regarded sas luxury, and
is not used except when potatoes are
unobtainable. g
Agricultural experts have informa-
ton to the effect that the present har-
vest is the worst since 1879, which was
the most distressing recorded during
the present generation, and the suf-
fering of the poor during the coming
months threaten to almost equal the
horrors of the famine of 1916. All the
boards of guardians are providing for
a large increase of poverty, necessitat-
ing doubling the rates in some dis
tricts. But immediate steps must be
taken by the government, if the people
are to be saved.
