MINNEAPOLIS GRAIN.

MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 5.-The local specula-
tive wheat market opened weak and nervous
this morning in the face of strong and higher
cables. The course of trading was altogether
in sympathy with Chicago. The weak feel
ing, however, did not last long, for about
1890 a. m. wheat changed it's course and a.
sharp advance of a full cent was scored by
1880, after which the market ruled strong
and active up to noon with good prospects of
going still higher. The news of the day was
mostly bullish in tone and chiefly confined
to the statistical position of wheat the world
over. First cables advised of good advance
in Liverpool, being 12024d over yesterday s
close, with second cables advising Of I'd de-
cline from the top. London was steady and
Paris higher. Il is to be noted here that
Paris wheat is exactely the same price as on
Jan. 1, while English and American markets
have declined materially. Another feature is
the fact that cash wheat is at a premium over
May in all the markets of the United States.
This is significant and without doubt will
make itself felt in the near future Dornbusch
says: THE statistical position of wheat could
not be stronger. Simple law of supply and
demand should have marked influence in the
near future and the serious curtailment IN
French winter wheat has been allowed by
French imports"

FINANCIAL REVIEW.
Northern Pacific the Feature of the
Speculative Week.

speculative week.
NEW YORK, Feb. 5-Bradstreet's financial
review tomorrow will say: In the main the
current speculation Is of purely professional
kind, and requires no description or COM
ment. In spite of the dulness and the dis
position 1t naturally created on the mart ~
the regulars to act ON the bear side there
was evidence from time to time that the
underlying tone of the market is bullish that
stocks are IN firm hands and that liquidation
is matter OF the past. Europe took little or
no part in the proceedings except In the case
of the Northern Pacific, which was the real
feature Of the week. 1t should however. be
noted that friends Of the property bought the
stock in this market with confidence based
on knowledge of the circumstances In uues-
ton as well as the alliance that has been
formed with the Great Northern railway.
One OF the fruits Is seen in the steps which
is stated to have been taken by two compan-
les to obtain representation in the manage
ment Of the Oregon Railway and Navigation
with the object Of preventing that prop
erty from being used adversely to their in
terests On these factors the advance In
Northern Pacific preferred and common
which began last week, continued, attracting
considerable outside buying, and carrying the
quotations of last Monday up to 3S7s' for the
preferred stock and 1864 for the common.
The announcement Of the deal between the
reorganization syndicate and the German In
terest was, as Is usual in such cases, the sig
nal for realizing sales. and recession which
depressed the preferred to 37b and common
to 14%. limitations were, however, forth
coming that other plans of considerable mag
nitude are in preparation by the Northern
Pacific management, and the stocks of the
road recovered somewhat and displayed a
very firm appearance. Union Pacific was
for a time unfavorabiy affected by the deal
concerning the Oregon Navigation. The
stock regained ground. however, when II was
made known that this transaction was not
intended to be in any way adverse to its in
terests- and business, and was supplemented
by Inclination from Washington that inter-
ference by congress with the carrying out OF
the present reorganization plan need not be
longer feared, and no increase on the assess-
ment OF the stock will be made The move
ment In Northern Pacific apparently stimu-
lated little activity in another reorgan-
lied property-the St Louis & San Francisco
reports being circulated that it's earnings
were favorable. Atchison was somewhat
heavy, particularly the preferred shares ON
the expected increase In the amount OF tho
same iAiA-.-.3M

He Found Town Where His Genius Was
Not Appreciated.
Tomaso Salvini has had an experience
similar to that of Rubinstein, when the
police of Lausanne, in Switzerland,
made him pay half a crown for the priv
ilege of playing his instrument.
Milan's famous son has lately been
touring in Hungary, and he proposed to
honor the town Of Kecskemet with a
one night performance, expecting to re-
ceive the same welcome which Buda-
pest and Arad had already accorded
him.
But Kecskemet has a town council
and bucolic population who did not
see the need of the thing at all. Signor
Salvini applied for the necessary au-
thorization and was informed by the
secretary of the aldermen that after the
long winter season the townspeople
were tired of dramatic displays, and i'll
any case the local art was sufficient for
the needs of Kecskemet. .-Exchange

Distance never seems to kill the pa

Greeks hurrying hither on the trains
from all parts of the country en- route
to the seat of war, but they are even
tramping to the coast to join the bands
of their countrymen who arc returning
home.
When freight train on the Erie rail
road was stopped temporarily in the Jer-
sey City yards one morning recently,
faint cries were heard coming from the
interior Of one of the cars, accompanied
by feeble kicking OH the side OF the car.
When the door was opened, a young
Greek tumbled out. He was arrested.
He explained that he had been beating
his way from Wilkesbarre. Pa, on his
way to join the Greek army. He walk
ed / 8 miles, and, being hungry and ex-
hausted. crept into an open freight cal
then lying at Newark. He was soor
sound asleep on the pig iron with which
the car was filled. The car was sealed
while the Greek was asleep, and he die

Poor MsvA Fritters Away Coin That
Would Have Made Him Rich.
John Tremley Of Lewis street, Rah-
way, N. j., Is bemoaning his ignorance
Of the value of old coins. For years un-
til recently he carried an ancient French
silver piece in his pocket A few weeks
ago he sold it to John Marbacher for 26
cents Marbacher was as ignorant as
Tyemley Of its value
Happening into John Metzinger's sa-
loon few evenings later, he jokingly
rendered it in payment for round Of
drinks. The saloon keeper, noticing that
the coin purported to he 800 years old.
offered 81 for it and became its possess
or. A man named Claude Gorisse then
purchased it from Metzinger for So.
Gorisse lost no time in communicat-
ing with New York coin collector.
Negotiations leading to a purchase Of
the coin were Immediately made. The
collector went to Railway, and when he
returned to New York the coin was
safely slowed away in his wallet. The
price paid by the purchaser was SO, 600.
When Gorisse told his good luck to
Metzinger, the latter fumed and bumped
his head for being dolt. Marbacher
was told, and he informed Tremley.
Tremley's surprise and chagrin could
not be disguised. He is poor man and
works at his trade as carriage painter.
Gorisse refuses to divulge the name of
the purchaser, but says the delight that
the collector showed when he secured
possession Of the piece satisfied him that
the New York man struck bargain.
Gorisse is poor Frenchman, about 20
years old. He will use the money to
buy home for his declining years. The
coin was franc piece. Exchange.
