MADRID, April 28.-The parliament

the praiseworthy efforts both the gov

to induce the opposition to reduce the
wonted dilatory debates with a view to
getting voted rapidly those bills and
authorizations which are Indispensable
to enable the government to carry on
affairs in the present critical circum-

Senor Toca declared that the Ameri-

The perfect confidence which appears
to be felt here at the outcome
of the war between Spain and
the United States is reflected
by the Liberal (Moderate Re-

awaiting the attack which America is
noisily threatening to make; attacks
simultaneously on Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippine islands with her
undisciplined forces, while her preach
ers and merchants, finding the task
more difficult than they had calculated,
are already quoting the Bible to prove
that peace is good thing for civilized
nations. On the American side are

SHORTAGE IN WHEAT.
Supply Not Sufficient to Keep Min
nesota Hills Going.

Not for several years has the North
west been as short of wheat as now.
Country stocks have reached in April
a very low point, there being probably
less than 100000 bushels held at this
time by country houses, only very
small portion of which is contract
wheat. This explains why the Mime
apolis wheat market advanced over
20c in one week.
A supply for about eighteen weeks
must be found. Minneapolis mills are
grinding over a million week, and
Duluth mills are aiding the consump-
ton. Minneapolis and Duluth together
only have 100000 of all grades in pub
lie houses, as against over 10000, 900
last year, while the visible supply of
the country is down to 25,0OO,O0O as
against 36,000 900 last year, the differ
ence meaning that the visible must be
practically exhausted by the end of the
crop year.
In view of this somewhat startling
situation, there are not few here who
predict $3.50 for May and July wheat
in Minneapolis.

An unknown footpad attacked Mrs. Clara
Moffett. of 2432 Pleasant avenue. Minneapolis.

she returning from the city. She was
knocked down, and, when she screamed, was
struck again on the mouth SO hard as to rem

the screams, however, and rushed out of
doors. catching the man searching Mrs. Moi

Mrs. Moffett was carried into the house

consciousness, but is still in a dazed and
