MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, March 2-Wheat opened
fractonaly higher this morning on Liverpool
cables showing half-penny advance and on
adVlces from New York that foreigners were
buying freely. The trade had also studied the
figures reported yesterday of the situation
abroad, on the ocean and at home, and as a
result the most of the local crowd came down
this morning feeling bulliSh, and only wanted
a little encouragement to put their changed
views into practice The first cable referred
to, showing the 13d advance, was not much
considering that that market declined Id yes
terday, but 1t did show an Improvement in
tone; and second cables, advising of a further
advance of I'D per GENITAL, put II beyond per-
adventure that the trade had turned on the
other side. Those who were short took cog
nlZance OF the change and FASTENED for cover
and as result an advance of 1hc for Nav
was scored and 1c for July wheat. The gossip
of the day was generally bullish in character
Crop damage reports were numerous from all
the different winter wheat states, and all
affected the ST. Louis market materially
causing an excited and higher market there
All other markets were in sympathy, our own
included.

House Odds and Ends.


A bill (H. F. 69S) introduced by Mr.. Nc
Donald, which seeks to require license of
at least 81 COO year for every theater in any
city of the state of 30, 600 or more population.
The bill is to go into effect at once but 1t is
not 10 affect licenses already granted.
The Sons of Veterans of Minnesota by a
bill III. F. 699 are to be recognized as a part
of the military reserve of the state. They
are to be mustered in companies of thirty or
more and make application to the adJutant
general who is to attend to their inspection
and enrolment and furnish arms and equip
ment.
The house reconsdered the vote by which
s. F. 14S Knatvold) relating to the inspection
of Illuminating oils was Indefinitely postponed,
and the bill was re-refeTred TO the committee
on general legislation.
Two petitions were sent in from Goodhue
county which are somewhat significant, as
showing that the people are in favor of To-
eating the fourth insane hospital at Hastings
The sgners ask their senators and represen-
tatives to use their efforts to secure this re-
suit, as they believe Hastings is for various
reasons best suited to the needs of the hos
pi.al.
Representative Gilbertson submitted to the
house numerously signed petition in favor
of the passage of the county option BILL
whereas, on the other hand petitions were
received from the business men of Brainerd
and other cities to the effect that they believed
towns and cities were able to govern them
selves, and, therefore, opposed the passage of
the county option bill.
A number of the representatives presented,
on behalf of their constituents, vigorously
worded petitions opposing variously the Doug
las distance tariff BILL" the Ringdal freight
reduction measure" and the Jackson bill.
These petitions came from Mankato, st. An
thony Park Minnesota Transfer and along
the Omaha road.
A very excellent oil painting of Speaker
Jones, of the house, stands in the lobby of
the hall of representatives.
The move made yesterday by two members
of the house to have the morning sessions
begin at $50 instead of 10 o'clock, as now, does
not appear to be received with much glee by
the members, and 1t is considered doubtful
If the change will be made, at least at pres
ent.
1t was voted yesterday that Paul Stein
bach, an old soldier, be employed as flag
raiser and committee room keeper at a COM
pensation Of So a day
1t is the present plan of the normal school
committee of the house to visit St. Cloud
early the coming week. 1t is not probable
that the committee will visit Moorhead.

Will BE Publicly Considered Thurs

Mr.. Lovejoy, chairman of the COM
mittee on railroads, rose as question
of personal privilege and said that
whereas there had been a good deal OIL
comment in the newspapers and else
where rgarding the action and atti-
tud of the railroad committee, he
wished to say that the committee had
six bills referred to it so far upon
which it had acted, three of these were
indefinitely postponed, two were re-
ferred to the judiciary committee, and
one was recommended for passage. He
wished to give public notice, he said,
that the committee would hold PUBLIC
hearing upon the Douglas rate bill
Thursday evening in the chamber of the
house. This beirg an eX parte body.
he said, I'VE thought 1t would be fair
to allow the author of the bill to pre-
sent the arguments for the bill, and l
wish now to give him notice to that
effect and the railroad attorneys will
be heard on the other side" 1t was
understood that all members of the
house would be permitted to take part
in the discussion of the BILL and with
this explanation the incident closed.

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK, March 2.-The demand and
purchases today turned out better than was
promised at the opening. Bleached cottons
were taken in good quantity by several of the
largest distributing markets west of New

wear had increased attention. For desirable
goods orders were placed as none are to be
had for immediate delivery. Dress silks and
ribbons are doing very well, and so are mems
wear goods. Brown cottons were moved we'll
on old engagements, but new business was OF
moderate proportions. Foreign and domestic
fancy worsted dress goods in steady request.
