MINERAL LAND CONTEST.
The Decision of the Helena Land once
Favorable tn Ernest ~Beaudette.

In the contest case of Ernest Beau
dette against the classification of the
board of United States land commits
sioners, involving title to a valuable
deposit of sand stone situated on Lost
creek. the decision of the United
States land office at Helena has been
received and is in favor of Mr.. Beau
dette.
The commissioners classified this
piece of land last December as agricul-
tural land. and as there was a we'll
opened quarry of sand stone on the
land i'm question, Mr.. Beaudette filed a
protest against the classification and
a hearing was thereupon ordered.
which was to decide the character Of
the land. Ernest eaudette c~ontended
that the stone was suitable for build
ing purposes and was mineral within
the sense of the law. and he based his
case upon the decision of the secretary
of the interior i'm the Pacific Coast
Marble VS. the Northern Pa
cifc Railroad company. The testi-
mony was taken before J. n. Eardly.
and the land office, after reviewing the
! entire case and considering the testi-
mony, decided in favor of Mr.. Beau
dettc.
The text of the decision reads as fol-
lows:
From the testimony presented, we
find that the said tract contains an ex-
tensive deposit of sand stone suitable
for building purposes: that a quarry has
been opened up on said land and that
large quantities of stone have been
sold for building purposes i'm the ada
cent city of Anaconda. III tract is
rough, mountainous land and untitled
for agricultural purposes. As IL is
clearly shown by the testimony that
the land in controversy is more valu-
able for the minera II contains than
for agricultural purposes, we recon
mend hat the classification of said
tract as agricultural be set aside and
that the same be classified as min
pral.'

The Foreign Grain Trade.

LONDON, Jan. 91-The Mark Lane Ex-
press to-day, in it's weekly review of the
grain market, says: Although the French
wheatfields promise well, it is feared they
are affected by rankness and weeds. Austria
Hungary is suffering from a plague of field
mice and moles, which is spreading over the
vast plains Of the Leytha and Danube. The
news from Russia is satisfactory so far as
the Alma wheat of 1898 is concerned; but
the threshing of the 1897 crop indicates that
the yield is very small IN the provinces
which have hitherto been credited with an
average crop. Large sales of Russian wheat
point therefore to a very bad agricultural
situation, showing that Russia, while not
increasing her total production, is becoming,
through agricultural poverty a prompt
seller for cash after the harvests. With
America also weaker holder we must be
prepared for increased fluctuations at lower
prices from October to February and high
er from March to j Ine. In ordinary years
from July to September, harvests may be
expected to control prices in accordance
with actual reapings. The reduction of Ital-
ian duty on foreign wheat is expected to
cause the bulk of Russian and Roumanian
wheat to be shipped to Genoa, Naples and
Venice in February and March,
