The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1898-03-05

The Chicago wheat deal is attract
ing much attention. Joseph Letter
continues to hold his immense pur-
chases of high grade winter wheat, an
amount now estimated at Is, 70 900
bushels. In the meantime prices are
advancing in all parts of the world,
and it is difficult to predict the figure
which will be reached by May wheat.
The Letter clique claims that the far
mers have long since parted with their
wheat, and points to the fact that
dollar wheat" fails to materially in
crease the receipts at the principal
points. An interesting feature of the
situation is the development that hun
dreds of millers and wholesale flour
dealers have been mixing corn meal
with flour and selling this blended mix
ture as high grade wheat. This is said
to account for "black bread" and the
further fact that -four has not adj
vanced in price in proportion to wheat.
This matter has been introduced into
congress and some legislation may fol-
low. The reports of a Russian short
age which were at first vigorously
denied, are found to be true, and the
government will probably repeal the
duty on wheat 20 as to permit imports.
The stocks now in Russian ports
amount to II, 600, 900 bushels, as against
an average of L 1904, GOO bushels for
same dates in the last ten years. The
London Times prints a telegram from
St. Petersburg saying that the failure
Of the crops threatens a worse dearth
than that of 1891. Russian editors are
forbidden to refer to the matter Of the
reduction In import duties.

The commissioners appointed by the
city and the town of Johnston to appor-
ton the town debt met in the City Hall
Monday, but on account of proper plats
showing the dividing lines OF the town
and the city Including the annexed terri
tory, nothing was done beyond general
discussion of the bills of the town. Gen.
Wilson, Clarence A. Aldrich and Arnold
Green represented the city, and the men
appointed by the town council were pres
ent. The commission after a general
talk, decided to defer action until proper
plats had been prepared, which would
give them better understanding OF the
situation.-JOurnal.
