Chicago, Feb. 2.-The circulation of
many crop damage reports and fair buy

the first few minutes of trading advanced

marks concerning the condition of the
winter wheat plant, said most of the
wheat area had snow protection and the
average condition of the plant was only
moderately lowered, while it's general
promise was good. That was sort of
frost that nipped the budding expectation
of a scarce crop, and May declined to

New York reported heavy buying of flu
lures there by foreigners, while advices
from Liverpool were to the effect that
offerings from Argentine were diminish

ing and May rose to 75b175Ac. At that
point the bears put the kettle on and
gradually pounded the price down. st.

brought about considerable enforced lidui-

WILL EXTEND THE TIME
The Classification of Montana
Mineral Land.
ESTIMATES OF THE BOARD
sioner of the Land Off1ce-Effact
of the Decision in the JET
ferson County Case.
Washington Bureau of the Standard,
No. HAS G street \. w.

| NO. ll45 Il street \. W.
| Washington, Jan. so. Hon. Binger
| Hermann, commissioner of the gen.
eral land office. has recommended the
passage of bill extending the time for
the examination and classification of
| certain mineral lands in Montana and
Idaho. The following is an estimate
by the several boards of the lands re-
naming urclassified in the several dis
tricts on the dates given:
Acres
Missoula, Oct. 1, 1898 :. :. .... 3,325, $50
Helena, Nov. IA. 1895 .. 2,7G1, 24O
Bozeman, Nov. II, 1893 ... $50, 900
Occur d'Alene. Oct. 8, 1885, w 1,500, 900
In letter to the secretary of the in
terror, Mr.. Hermann says:
L have the honor to state that the
records of this office show that the ex-
animation and classification of lands
within the land-grant and indemnity
land grant limits of the Northern Paci-
tic Railroad company will not be COM
pleted by the commissioners appointed
for that purpose within the four years
allowed by the act of Feb Is. 1896
All of the boards are at present at
work upon the classification, but it is
apparent to anyone, and especially
from their reports, that satisfactory
progress in the examination and clas-
sit1cation of lands can not be properly
made during the winter months: hence
the following recommendation that the
law be extended to the 31st day of Oc-
tober, 1899, only.
In that time the work of the Boze-
man and Occur d'Alene commissioners
ought to he wholly completed: in fact,
the Bozeman board ought to complete
the examination in that district within
the next three months.
IF upon the expiration of the period
recommended any of the boards have
not completed the work of examination
and classification ample time will be
allowed for the recommendation of
any extension of the law that may be
found necessary.
1T is somewhat difficult to deter
mine the exact amount of lands re-
naming for examination, because OF
the fact that all of such lands are un-
surveyed, and in mountainous portions
of the districts"
Secretary Bliss has recommended the
passage of a bill extending the time
for completion to Oct. 31st next. The
bill also carries an appropriation of $780,
900 for further expenses.
The recent decision of the supreme
court in the case of William V. Mey-
ers, treasurer of Jefferson county,
against the Northern Pacific railroad,
will enforce the collection of the taxes
imposed by Jefferson county on the
road. The case has been pending in
state and federal courts for nearly four
years. The decision also Validates the
taxes for four years in the counties of
Broadwater. Cascade. Deer Lodge, Fer
gus, Flathead. Granite, jefferson, Lewis
