WEEKLY WHEAT LETTER.

Chicago, Feb. G. 1S97.-The war scare did for
the past week about what was expected-added
to its price. There advance of cents
per bushel, and not much reaction. The En-
glishmen kept rather Indifferent of the Gre
aten situation, which allayed the anxiety of
shoi is on this side, but toward the close of the
week even Liverpool began to wake up to pos
sible danger Crop damage reports have begun
to influence prices to a considerable extent. No
damage however, has yet been reported that
Should materially advance the price of the
growing crop. The visible supply decreased
Monday LAS, 900 bushels. which gives us "A Wis
ibie supply March of 43, 1877 900 bushels against
ago at this time. 1t is interesting to note in
this connection that with the same demand on
our stocks for the next four months a year
ago (and we have right to expect n heavier
one) our visible supply July l will show only
q. 600. COO bushels. Not since July |, 1892 have
our stocks been reduced to that point. At that
time our visible supply stood at "a 300 600
bushels and wheat was selling at 80 cents per
bushel. These are statistics. and as such can
BE- ignored but it is well to consider them oc-
casicnally. The worlds shipments to Europe
have been running down to less than g. OO0-
0C0 bushels weekly, against an estimated
consumptive demand of 7000,0 900 bushels. This
is almost unheard OF, and is Of the strong
est statistical positions of the wheat market to-
day.
Our weekly exports to Europe show an in
crease over last week, and If our available sup
plies continue decreasing at the present rate
while the cry is everywhere, mo one is buy
sarying." what Will be the effect when the ne
cessary buying begins? You could not have a
better prospect, healthier market condition
and sounder basis upon which to rest your
deal on the long side. II you want a profit buy
your wheat now before the hungry nations buy
theirs.

FAMOUS PARIS BELLE CASE is ON.
Argument Before the Full Court In
Session at Victoria.

Session at Victoria.
Victoria. Il. c., March 5.-The famous
Paris Belle case is now being argued. It
is one in which all of British Columbia is
interested, by reason of it's important
bearing upon the Interpretation of the
laws of British Columbia as well as by
the fact that If Chief Justice Davies de-
clsion given on the trial of that cause
some months ago is sustained by the fun
court now sitting and to which an appeal
had been taken, it would invalidate thou
sands of mineral claims in the Kootenay
country. The judgment of the chief JUS
tice was briefly in effect that a mineral
claim should have two well defined walls
in order to be legally held as a location
The Paris Bellies contention, put for
ward yesterday by w. j. Taylor, that in
asmuch as It's claim was recorded before
the grant to the railway company, by vir-
tue of the clause of the subsidy act which
declared that only unoccupied lands in al
ternate tracts selected by the railway
company passed under the grant, the
Paris Belle was excepted from the grant
as clearly as If set out by metes and
bounds; that in any event q portion of the
ground covered by the Paris Belle being
over claim called the Zephyr. the part
covering the Zephyr was clearly excepted
from the railway grant at the Zephyr
claim, being live claim at the date of
the railway company's selection of its al
ternate blocks. The mining company fur
Their urged that its certificate of improve
ments was conclusive evidence of its com
pliance with the mineral act, and that the
railway company had no status to attack
1t upon the ground that an entry bond
was not given prior to the entry and thar
no mineral in place" was found upon the
claim. Further, the mining company sub
mitted that the subsidy act was plain that
the interests of the miners were placed
over those of the railway company and
should not be interfered with

Salt Lake, March 5.-A special to the
Tribune from Price. Utah, says: Early
yesterday morning private dispatches
from Washington were received at Fort
Duchesne and Vernal saying the bill pro-
vidng for the opening of the Uncom-

and that President Cleveland had signed
1t before midnight. Immediately there
was wild rush for the reservation, and
before noon there were 500 or 600 armed
men in possession of the gllsonite lands.
No official information of the opening of
the reservation had been received and
the parties were allowed to remain undis-
turbed. The rush for the reservation to-
day surpassed that of yesterday, It being
more generally thought that the land was
open for settlement. and every foot of
land known to contain gilsonite is row oc-
cupied by an armed man. The Indians are
greatly excited. and unless the parties are
elected from their land shortly. trouble is
looked for.
