A FIREMAN'S MISTAKE.

The Four O'clock Test Sent in an Hour
Ahead of Time and the Department
Called Out.
The fire companies received a call at
three o'clock yesterday afternoon owing
10 a false alarm sent from the Atlantlc
engine house. The four o'clock test
alarms are generally sent in from the
Atlantic house. Yesterday afternoon
At three o'clock, Kurner, one of the At
Iartic fremen. awakened from a sleep
and glancing hastily at the clock
thought that the hands were at four
o'clock. He accordingly sent IN the
test alarm. The various companies, OF
course. understood this for fire alarm
and prepared to respond. Some OF
them did not get out on the first sound
and therefore did not go at all, as only
one round sounded. The Eighth ward
companv got as far as the Niagara en-
CINE house and there learned the cause
of the trouble. The Hook and Ladder
people got a good start and made the
entire run to the Atlantic engine house
Hugh McCurdy, the driver, who was
Temporarily off duty, was on Sixteenth
street and attempted to get on board

the street. but fell off and came nearly
falling under the heavy wheels.

The new compound mastodon engines
Of the Northern Pacific, which were
received last week from the Schenec-

through some performances which are
startling the railroad world and COLI
hrming the statement that the loco

The engines were designed to develop

failed. During the test Of the new

was changed from compound to a

MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, March 1.-The local wheat
market opened barely steady this morning
and for fully an hour after weakness and in
activity were the prevailing features. About
1890 a. N. the market rallied on prospects of
larger decrease in the visible than expected
AT II a. m. the official hgues were posted
showing a decrease of / 41S,0 900 bu 100000 bu
more than expected on Saturday evening
This large decrease shows enthusiastically that
the domestic demand is much larger than the
trade Is willing to admit and bears out the
predictions that were made by prominent
millers as long ago as December last that such
would be the case. The gossip Of the day was
very meager First cables advised that Ltv-
erpooI opened at 12d advance over Saturday
but second cables reported the advance lost
with dull and weak markets at the decline
due to the increase in local stocks. The re-
ports as to the increase at Liverpool were very
conflicting, varying from 152, 600 blu to l. col :
OC0 Blu FOR the month Of February From the
course of the Liverpool market we ehould
Judge that the latter figures are correct. New
York advised that there was but little demand
for export trade, and that the clearances Of
wheat and flour would be only moderate but
1,OOO00C Su for the day. Crop damage reports
were very numerous from nearly ali points Of
the winter wheat country. These crop dam
age reports Will become stale before thew are
authenticated and if they should not he mr.
