CAN'T GET WHEAT TO GRIND.
Farmers in Kansas Hold Their Wheat for
Better PriceS-Many Mills Close.

TOPEKA. Kan. Sept. 25.-The fourth and last
Touring mill In Topeka shut down last night
for want of wheat to grind. 1t is estimated
that seventy-fve mills In the State are idle
selling their wheat, but are waiting for better
prices.
The farmers are holding their wheat, they
say, because they have money enough on hand,
and are able to hold 1t, and not because there Is
any understanding among them to that end.
1t Is, thought that there are 70,000.0 900 bushels
OF wheat In the State.

NEW YORK STOCK REPORT
Digest of Exchange News-Mining Stocks.
Metal Quotations-Wool Prices and
Movements-Grain and Pro-
duce-Review of Trade.

New York, Jan. 25.-The timidity mani
tested by dealers in stocks yesterday be-
cause the warship Maine had been order
ed to Havana, was fully equalled by the
confidence with which traders bought
back their stocks to-day when the ship
had arrived in Havana. The most notable
feature of the days trading was in the
large volume of transactions for London
account The number of shares bought in
New York for London was estimated at
from 10000 to 10000 shares. Even with
this large demand to be filled, prices Were
not lifted at the opening fully to the Lon
don parity.
The sharp declines seemed to have
awakened a demand in London for Amer
leans and early quotations from there
showed yesterdays declines largely recoN-
cred. The strength of the Spanish As in
London also indicated the absence of APP
prehenson of an embodiment between
the United States and Spain. London gave
the tone of the days market and sustain
ed 1t by the absorption of free offerings
of securities after the opening. The Tor
eign buying of securities was sufficiently
heavy to nave a marked effect ON the
exchange market. the actual rates de-
Ginning Is per cent, with the demand Tor
bills very light. Londons large buying of
securities. in fact, led to renewed talk of
early imports of gold and is given addi-
disc exports from New York for the week.
which were over 81, 600 in excess of last
week and more than S5.o00,00o greater than
those in the closing week of last year.
1t was evident that some of the profess
sional traders who bought short contracts
on yesterdays Cuban scare returned
from covering in the early transactions in
the belief that the market would be come
easy after London had ceased operations.
The belated shorts rushed to cover n
the final transactions and made the tone
buoyant at the close which found prices
at the best for the day for the standard
stocks.
Yesterdays losses on the average have
been more than recovered. New York
Central was the most conspicuous in the
dealings, with it's net gain of more than
three points, and the stocks of allied
properties shared in its strength to a
somewhat less extent. Union Pacific, the
Northern Pacific and the other properties
which go to make up the ISlondike group,
were all conspicuous for strength. and

added to the list

CHICAGO MARKETS.



Chicago. Jan. 25.-The opening in wheat
was weak. May, which closed yesterday
at 93hc, started to-day at 931sm93Ac. and
comparatively little trading done
even at those prices. The weakness was
due both to foreign and domestic news.
The Liverpool cables We're but I'D higher
at the opening, and this slight advance
was soon lost. There was no confirmation
of the sensational reports of yesterday
afternoon regarding the Austrian de-
mands for Argentine wheat or of the
Russian Importation of German grain, and
news from Havana was very pacific.
Heavy SHOWS were reported all over the
winter wheat country Minneapolis ard
Duluth received 323 ear loads against $50
the corresponding day of last week and
lbs the similar day of the previous year.
Chicago got 80 cars against 40 II year ago.
Primary market receipts in the West
We're $4,000 bushels against 1000 bushels
a year ago The Atlantic port exports
were very liberal being equal in wheat
and flour to $4,000 bushels. that including
a considerable quantity from Newport
News.
About A. minutes after the opening the
pit was set in a commotion, January be-
ing the center of interest. That delivery
was nominaly worth CSC at yesterday S
close and was offered at 944sc at to-day
opening. About 1915. however, bookcrs
for Letter began bidding for January and
the price was advanced far that for
few minutes IL appeared to be fairly
running away. From Soc IL jumped l2c and
q cent at a time, brokers raising their
bids that much until 81 was bid. Then the
reaction came, the price dropping almost
as quickly as il advanced. Ii brought up
at 91c and for the rest of the session
was comparatively quiet. The gyrations
of January were generally believed TO be
due to a clever move on the part OF the
Letter crowd, which. II is thought took
this method to advance the price of May.
This belief was strengthened by the un-
loading which took place in the latter
option at 9ic to which price it was car
ried while the pyrotechnics We're going
on in January.
Allen * Grier We're said to have taken
TO- 900 bushels of January in getting the
price to a dollar. For the rest Of the
morning prices were nervous, though nc
great trading was done.
Bradstreets visible report showed a de-
crease of but 10000 bushels and was a
decline to 93l2c which took place after
the bulge TO 94c. Later in the session
however. reports that 1talys bread riots
were increasing and that reserves had
been called out. started some brief buy
ing and May was advanced to 9ilsc. The
closing price was e2Mc. Not much was
done I'm July and prices are rather tend
ing downward. ranging between Sc and
Sac and closed at SIZE shade under yes
terday's prices.
Corn. though active, was firm. Moderate
receipts and the stormy weather West
caused some investment and a moderate
covering followed.
Oats were firm all day though the trad
ing was even smaller than in corn.
After a rather easy opening provisions
turned strong and remained so through
out.

TO CHANGE THE ROUTE
A Mail Proposition That Doesn't
Please the People of Dupuyer.
OLD ROAD is TOO ROUGH
Many Drivers Forced to Stay Out on the
Prairie All Night-Dupuyer Would
Like to Take the County
Seat From Choteau.

Great Falls, Jan. pa United States
postal inspector has been looking over
the mail route which runs from the sta
ton on the Great Falls & Canada rail-
way from Piegan to the town of Du-
puyer. 1t is the present intention of
the postal authorities to abandon the
route and hereafter to send all mail for
Dupuyer via Brighton, Bynum and
Choteau. 1t is a somewhat longer
route, but the government people claim
it is an easier route. They say that the
road between Piegan and Dupuyer is
exceedingly rough, and that during the
existence of the mail route several old
drivers have been lost and obliged to
remain out on the prairie through the
night to the great danger of both life
and property, and that is the principal
reason for the abandonment of the
route. 1t is expected that there will be
much objection from the citizens of
Dupuyer to having their mail come by
way of Choteau, as there is at present
strong rivalry between the two towns,
and it is rumored that the people of
Dupuyer are figuring now on getting
the county seat away from the other
and older town.

Still Another 1904 Dollar.

Great Falls, Jan. 25.-The Standards
article of several months ago on the
1904 silver dollar is still pursuing it's
way over the country. The latest re-
turns on il come from Albany. N. Y.
The addition to the story is as follows:
"A silver dollar of the issue of 1904 is
owned by James Ten Eyck of this city,
a past grand master of Masons He
purchased it in New York city in 1888
for 500 and secured with ii the neees-
sary papers to prove it's authenticity
Some time ago he refused $4,000 for the
coin. A dollar of this issue has been
stated to be worth over $4,000. Mr.. Ten
Eyck says the statement that there are
only four of these coins in existence
and that one of them is not accounted
for, is erroneous, for there is a reliable
record of the existence of seven of
them. He says the British museum is
not the owner of one, as stated. Mr..
Ten Eyck has one of the best collec-
tions of rare coins in the country"

Havre to File Upon the Land.

Great Falls. Jan. 25.-The town of
Havre is making ready to settle a land
contest. The town was originally To-
Gated on so acres of government land,
a part of the Assinniboine reservation.
1t has grown so rapidly that it's popu-
Iation now entities it to much larger
space Adjoining the town is a strip
of land now in dispute between the
Great Northern railway and John c.
Duff of Fort Benton. At their last
meeting the aldermen and the mayor
voted to file upon the land in the name
of the town, Mayor Sanderson to act
as trustee. It is believed that the land
could be had by the town, plated and
then the town could settle the question
of priority of right between Duff and
the railway company. The town has
been advised that it has this right un-
der the law of 1879.

NOT so ANXIOUS.
Under the Law People Don't Care to Buy
Property Sold for Taxes.


Great Falls, Jan. 25.-There is a
marked difference between the manner
of the sale of property for delinquent
taxes to-day and the manner of those
sold three years ago. At that time the
treaSurer'S office was crowded to the
door with people who were anxious to
bid on property for sale. Each man
had a copy of the publication of the
delinquent taxes and as each piece of
land was offered the lists We're scanned
eagerly to find if it was among those
which had been previously marked.
For days in advance of the sale the
list was examined carefully and the
particulars concerning each piece of
property were ascertained and noted.
Where some wealthy man, firm or COM
pany held a mortgage on the property
and the repayment of the sum invested
was both sure and speedy, there would
be spirited bidding and the fraction of
the land thus decided would be exceed
ingly small. Evry bank in the city had
representatives, directly or indirectly
at the sales and many borrowed money
in the East for the speculation.
The recent changes in the laws which
make the margin of profit too small
for the risk run have brought about a
very different state of affairs. To-day
County Treasurer Gelsthorpe had for
an audience only his deputies and one
or two other county officials who hap
pened not to be busy at the time. Most
Of the property will have to be taken
by the state wherever some peculiar in
terest does not move outsiders to get in
and buy up the property.

ACTIVITY IN POLICE CIRCLES.
More Than the Usual Number of People
Get Jagged and Cut Up Rough.


Great Falls, Jan. 25.-The police court
this morning presented a scene of
greater activity than has been known
there for some time. The cause was
the unusual number of prisoners. The
first on the list was a rancher named
Paul Simons, who had come to town
with some hay and after selling part
of it had invested the proceeds in red
liquor. In consequence he was later
found drunk and asleep on the side
walk and taken to the station. He was
fined IS and costs and allowed to go
out and sell the rest of his hay to get
the money for his fire.
Marshal Monckton is the degenerate
scion of a noble name. He was a vag
but pleaded not guilty and asked trial
by IL jury of his peers. AS it would
consume time to find II such men, the
hearing was postponed until later.
Harry Snow was another case of the
same nature.
The case against John Separt for beg
ging drinks on the street was dismissed
on his promise to reform.
James Vaughn, who was once an
honest lineman for telephone COM
panies. but who has since abandoned
that vocation for lower walks of life,
was in court this morning for the ninth
time. AS usual he was drunk and had
gone into the house of Mrs. Wright
on the south side and disturbed her
peace of mind by breaking up the furni-
ture. For lack of SIS he was commit

COURSE OF TRUE LOVE.
The Son of Many White Horses Bound to
Have II Run Smooth Somehow.

Great Falls, Jan. ga tale of love,
romance and mixed races comes from
the country to the north. On Jan. last
there appeared before the clerk of the
court of Cascade county John T. Athey,
Garrett White full-blood Piegan In
dian, and Mrs. Minnie Cushman, a white
woman. They desired a marriage Ii
cense. White said that his fathers name
was Many White Horses, sub-chief OF
the Piegan tribe, and his mother had
been a squaw, but he did not know or
had not thought ii worth while to learn
her name. The woman is the daughter
of a former chaplain at Fort Assinni-
boine, and, as her name indicates, is a
widow. She has a child, girl about 6
years of age. Both White and his lady
love were teachers at the Fort Shaw In
dian school
A few days before that on which the
application for a license to wed was
made George b. MacLoughlin, agent for
the Blackfeet reservation, had issued
circular letter asking county clerks
throughout the state and particularly
those in this section of the state to re-
fuse licenses to any wards of the gov
eminent unless the application was ac-
ccmpanied by a written permit from
himself. In consequence of this letter
Mr. Athey delayed making out the IL
oense until he could hear from the agent.
The couple did not wait, but hurried to
Dupuyer that night, and there, finding
a less hesitating official, procured Ii
cense and were married Then they be-
took themselves to the Blackfeet reser-
walton where under the government
regulations. the son of Many White
Horses and the husband of one white
woman will draw rations regularly for
the remainder of his natural life.
The cause of the hurried action has
come out and is told by a gentleman
just in the city from that part of the
country where the initial steps were
taken. 1t seems from his story that the
Indian and the white woman had been
sweethearts for some time before the
improvements on the Fort Shaw Indian
school buildings were made. That hap
pened this summer. Among the work
men who came from other parts of the
state to work on the buildings was one
whose massive frame and general good
looks had made an impression on the
widows heart before he had been there
any length of time. This favor shown
toward the white man did not escape
the black eyes of the son of Many
White Horses and straightway his
prairie-fire passions We're aroused. He
with the dallying widow and to have
rounded her up most severely. Indeed
The gentleman who relates this story
says her eyes at the close of the inter
view were swollen, not with tears but
with blows, and around them were nasty
and suggestive bluish-green bruises
Then followed the flight to Great Falls
and the other events as chonicled.
