the Sixth and Ninth Wards, of St.
Tammany Parish. respectfully Pc
tlt,on your honorable body to re-
establish tue ward line heretofore
existing between the Sixth and
Ninth Wards, as they originally ex-
listed, for the reason that as they
presently exist it is announcement
for the voters of said wards to
reach the polling place, which is at
Slldell, distance of some twelve or
fifteen miles, and if said lines were
placed as originally existed said
citizens would only be compelled
to travel four to six miles, and for
the further reason that they are
identified with the ward as existed
heretofore. and in every way would
be more convenient for the under
signed.
We. therefore, petition and pray
that your honorable body give this
matter due consideration and re-
establish said lines. Respectfully:

Still Quiet Tone-Missouri Acer-
age Larger, but Condition Of
Wheat Only 80.
cLEARANcEs WERE VERY LIGHT
Little Change In the General Situa-
ton and n Waiting Tendency
Is Shown.

Minneapolis Chamber OF Commerce, Feb ~
Light receipts in the northwest were Of
strengthening influence in wheat to-day. With
only 216 cars, against 661 last year, and this
AFTER ten days OF continued light receipts,
there swas not much encouragement for bear
1sh aggressiyeness. On top OF this came
decrease Of 100000 bushels in the Brad
street estimate of the worlds visible. This,
while not exactly surprising was-a little
more OF a decrease than had been generally
inquired upon. The tendency was firm on these
Items, and Minneapolis May was up to 74ssc.
weakening influence came from the south
west corn markets. Kansas City reported
loo oars OF corn there, without very good
demand, and weaker tone ruling. st. Louis
sent about the same news on corn and was
reported selling corn futures in Chicago. The
MISSOURI report makes the condition Of win
Ter wheat in that state 80, but puts the
acreage at "a per cent greater than last year.
SNOW covering has furnished much needed
moisture and all Indications, according -
the report. are now pointing to To- rsose>ct
yield ever known The Bradstreet figures
In detail showed the decrease general, stocks
east OF the Rockies falling off by 1928 900
bushels, and the amount in Europe and
ahoat decreasing 1,S000 900 bushels.
Primary receipts were 81, 900 bushels, and
shipments 243,O00 bushels, compared with
holiday last year. Clearances of wheat and
-four squaled $4,000 bushels Minneapolis
received 131 cars and Duluth a. against GIG
and Al last year.
The market closed very quiet, May closed
at 74Ssc, July at 75AQ75Bc. and February Tao.
Chicago May closed at 7S1sc.
Liverpool closed I'd lower
The cash market was about the same as
yesterday except for No. wheat, which was
In comparatively slow sale. No. 1 northern

trif1e easier and then f1rmed up, selling around
yesterdays close. Market shows no decided
tendency in either direction. Sentiment ap-
