The N. r + Through Rate.

r. The Interstate commerce commits
sion refused to allow the Northern
Pacific to make a lower through
rate than was applied to local freight
over the line between Minneapolis
and Duluth. Now the St. Cloud
Journal Press quotes some rather
poor gueSses as to what the North
ern Pacific will do: ri
: The question now to be considered
IL whether the N. p. will withdraw
the new. rate or continue In it's force
giving to intermediate points. the
benefit of proportionate rates. In
terviews with q number OF heavy
shippers of the city indicate feeling
that the company will continue, the
rate. and will obey the instruction
OF the commission in giving st. Cloud
and other p' ints the proportion
ate reduction that their geograph-
ical position entities them. tits said
that the last few months have given
the N. P. q large percentage of the
through business from Minneapolis
to the lakes and that compared to
this volume the local business is In
significant and will not warrant the
change. In case the through rate is
permitted to stand. and then the
local rates are made with reference
to it, tho Great Northern will meet
the rates at competing points and
St. Cloud will be decidedly on the
map. -

Malicious Mischief,

A complaint was filed in Justice Mich
OILS court yesterday upon which a war
rant was issued for the arrest of j. S.
Billings for malicious mischief. The
complainant is Miss M. j. Bawden, who
conducts a rooming house at 324 South
Montana street. She stated to the
county attorney that Billings represent
ed himself as a mining man of wealth,
but for various reasons was not able
to pay his room rent. AS she received
nothing from him but promises, which
her landlord declined to accept for his
rent, she had a lock put on Billings
door during his absence last Monday.
He returned and, finding his door lock-
ed, took an axe and chopped his way
into the room.

easiness 10 people who have watched bull
markets in times past and seen the reac-
tions that followed them. Nevertheless it
is probably fair statement of the views
of many OF the most conservative OF Wall
Street men that there is TO be no break in
the advance OF prices in the immediate
future. II is also a belief, growing stronger
every day, that there may not be more than
small receSsions from time to time during
the entire Spring. There has never been
such security market as this before, and
in venturing into untried fields the chance
always OF unforeseen catastrophe necessar-
sly receives much thought. II is noticeable
however. that despite the knowledge that
everybody has that there must be a top

INCREASE IN MONEY.
Era atif, ns1 M-eeLI, Showing Of As
sociafrd Ranks.

New Soyb, Ian. 1.-THE weekly state
ment of averages OF the associated banks
makes a more favorable showing than
even last Saturdays encouraging exhibit.
The increase in lawful money, the greater
part of IL in specie. is nearly $1,000. GO9.-
Sub-Treasury disbursements for interest
and pensions are largely responsible for
this increase. Besides. considerable
amounts have been received from the in
terror, particularly from San Francisco,
from which center gold is constantly be
ing shipped TO this city. The increase of
SO coo. 600 in the loans must be r garded
as small in view of the present large VOL
ume of business and of speculation.
The chances are that the increase in
this item is due quite as much TO foreign
borrowing here through the exchange
market as to any other operations. The
comparatively small increase supports the
view that a good deal of the buying of
securities this week has been by actual
purchasers. 1t is interesting to no that
the increase in loans is based entirely
upon cash in hand All the lawful money
received has not been employed in the
loan market, and in consequence the sur
plus reserve is nearly $i,75O,000 larger
than a week ago.
Todays stock market was in keeping
with that of the preceding five days, being
active and irregular, with strength pre-
dominating. The average for the five days
and a half of actual business is well over
1000, geo shares a day and the number Of
issues dealt in is unprecedented, bsing 21S.
In bonds. the transactions have aver
aged 5000 600 par value a day. and 25i
different issues have received attention.
The feature Of todays market were
Atchison preferred al a net advance of
2 Ia per cent. Burlington at an advance
of 3-S, Southern Railway preferred at
an advance of , IA the common at an ad-
vance of nearly point, and Federal Steel
common at an advance of l 5-S. The last
named opened up three points above the
final price of yesterday, owing TO the exc
cution of two large competing orders ap-
parently at the market. The stock was
supplied in quantities that caused a quick
reaction. Still, the heavy realizing did
not prevent a substantial gain from being
recorded.
Other stocks that made noteworthy
progress toward a higher level were Atchi-
son common, St. Paul, Rock Island and
Reading first and second preferred. South
ern Pacific and Central Pacific naturally
showed a reactionary tendency, and so did
Brooklyn Rapid Transit. in which the dis
position to take profits after the sharp
advance in the last two days was unmis-
taxable.
The usually inactive shares scored more
or less loss for the same reason.
