DIVIDING POSSESSIONS OF
PORTUGAL IN SOUTH AFRICA
Indication That Great Britain and Ger
uany Are Really At II.

LONDON, Oct. 22.-The general be-
lief that a secret treaty is in existence
between Germany and Great Britain
relative to the prospective division of
the Portuguese possessions in South
Africa was further. confirmed In the
house of commons today, owing to the
evasive replies of Under Foreign Sec
rotary Cranborne to questions on the
subject. The secretary parted all
queries, saying that if such a treaty
existed he, in the nature Of things, was
precluded from giving it's terms. 5

MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis-AH the life seemed gone
out OF wheat and the speculative market
fell into rut and remained in it. Price
changes were slight and the range narrow
Chicago was easier on wheat and coarse
grains Trade quieted down after the
opening business, and the volume during
with the past several days. Locally there
was a tendency toward firmness and the
market did not reach Tuesdays low point
by hairbreadth, reacting fractionally
from every dip. December opened at
Tic, sold off to 70as @701sc, and rallied
slowly to 7O5s @7O%c. The news was
without important influence either way,
but, on the whole, there was less to en-
courage the bulls than for some time
The foreign markets were easy, Liverpool
opening unchanged, but losing H@asd be-
fore the close.
st. Louis was weak on receipts there,
which showed 10000 bu, against SO, 900
last year, and Kansas City had an easy
tone, induced by receipts of 142 cars,
against 80 last year. The Northwest had
last year they We're heavy, showing
gain of Isl cars, or 692 against SAL. This
brought the total primary receipts to
gain of 491 900 blu, the heaviest compare
tive gain for a long time. Wheat and
flour clearances equaled 234, 900 blu. The
weather map was hardly so favorable.
Duluth had export inquiry again and re-
ported 150, 600 bu sold and more working.
Fifty loads were reported at the seaboard
chicago said that 2,0000 600 bu bought in
Duluth with an optional freight either to
Buffalo or Chicago is finally coming to
Chicago. Minneapolis stocks so far this
week have increased $50, 600 blu.
AT the close the market was uncertain
without any decided tendency, the longs
undecided about letting go or holding on,
the bears believing a setback is due, yet
afraid to commit themselves heavily to
the short side. Mry wheat closed at Tx
@71Bc; December at 70Mc. The cash
stuff was a little firmer, at least for
choice milling lots. Demand was good,
even a little better than Tuesday. Millers
took the good lots, paying 71Ac to 72e4
for No. northern and 691ac to 701kc for
No, 2. This latter grade sold to arrive at

sHEEPMEN WILL PROTEST
EXTENSION OF FOREST RE.
SERVE CAUSES EXCITEMENT.
Massmeeting of Flock Masters OF
Northern Wyoming Has
Been Called.

Cody, Wyo., July l4.-This entire
section is c%onvulsed with the great
est excitement and promises of no
little further trouble, caused by the
recent forest reserve extensions. Ever
since the president issued his proc
lamation, about six weeks since, quiet
meetings among the sheepmen have
been INDUCED in, but no action was
taken until the arrival of Mr.. A. A.
Anderson, the artist of New York,
who has taken a large summe ranch
on Wood river.
The extension takes in many town
ships OF land adjoining the Yellow
stone and Seton parks, which have
heretofore been winter ranges for
thousands OF sheep. Mr.. Anderson
was appointed special superintendent
ct Yellowstone and Seton reserves
and empowered to employ sufficient
force to carry out the law, and upon
his arrival last week he announced
that he would compel the withdrawal
of all sheep now on the extension.
This has created a fever of excite
ment, not only with the flockmasters,
buv with all the people of Big Horn
and Sunlight basins.
MI. Anderson, who is personally
very wealthy, is charged with being
the instigator Of the law and already
he has been threatened with assault.
A mass meeting of stockmen and 9TH
ers is called to meet at Meeteetsee
next Wednesday, and today riders are
out notifying flockmasters and others
to be present. Resolutions will then
be adopted and sent to the president
by a committee, asking the suspen-
sion of the act until they can have a
hearing. If the order is carried out
it will nearly ruin the greatest indu-
try n this entire region, because the
winter range of sheep, which is OF
the greatest necessity, will be taken
away and the present low ranges IN
the crowded condition will not be any
where near sufficient. The congress
sional delegation from this state is
being roundly denounced for allow
ing the measure to pass, as they had
been requested to prevent it and hac
promised to- do 80. The meeting mex
Wednesday will doubles be largely
attended. b
