Weekly Wool Report.

The wool market in Chicago during
the past week has been exceedingly
active. while according to the Ameri-
can Wool and Cotton Reporter. it was
exactly the contrary in Boston. New
York and Philadelphia. All these
markets, however, continue steady and
firm.
In New York there was no lack of
confidence among the trade regarding
the outlook for business, even though
the manufacturers. as 4, rule, were in

protest against efforts on the part of
the holders to gain better prices of
wool than have ruled for some time
past. Where the buyer is actually in
need of wool. full market prices were
obtained without looking to higher
rates. On the other hand, any efforts
made by the consumers to secure con.
cesSions were met III an equally
aggressive spirit.
The business transacted in territory
woods has been comparatively small.
Some houses report a fair amount of

FRENCH AND ENGLISH,
Raw Sarc Eiff n ,(,,u,]a

The French settled along the ST.
Sawrence and the Great Lakes. The
English settled along the Hudson and
down along the coast to Georgia.
These people never bothered each other
for long time. The English had
trading posts in the eastern part of
Pennsylvania. When the French saw
that the English were coming back
near the Ohio river they began to
build trading posts along the Ale
Sany river. After a while they built a
fort where Pittshurg now stands.
The English would not stand that.
because if the French got trading
posts along the Ohio River they could
have the land from where the English
were to the Pacific Ocean. The Eng
lish thought they would send them {.
letter and tell them to leave or they
would come over and make them.
The French said they would not leave
SO the English got an army and went
over. The French were at first sue
cessful but after awhile the English
whipped them and got the forts.

The demand for cheap lands is develop
ing a feature in land speculation in-the
newer sections Of the northwest that will
ultimately bring disappointment to many
buyers There is certain proportion OF
the cheaper lands of the northwest on
which the price named is too high. Sales
are being made by one speculator to an
other and gradually the game is getting
down to the smaller buyer. Most OF these
sales have for their foundation the belief
that all land will keep on advancing IN
value no matter what may be its strength
as a producer. The fact that land specu-
lation is fierce and is daily growing more
so has promoted the sale Of some very
bad land at good price Some day not
far off these values will sift down to their
proper level, and 1.-The last man can
! charge the difference in real and specu-
lative value to experience.
The good land of the northwest-and
there is empire of it's worth the
money asked. The poor land hasa value,
but unless it is intelligently purchased
| there is sure to be disappointmentsamon

twelve months. 1t would be better for

vestors carefully-inspected the land before

PRIVILEGES IN DEMAND
A Big, Brisk Sale at the State Fair
Grounds.

Bright skies helped make the scene at
the state fair grounds to-day a pictu-
sfesaue one. It was the occasion of the an
nual privilege sale. Spaces were for sale
to be occupied by those who will pro-
vide refreshments or cater by some sort
of amusement to the throngs attending
the fair.
The demand for these spaces has been
brisk of late years and to-day there was
a. large crowd assembled when the sale
opened at a. m. There were persons
OF every walk and station in life-from
the sedate lady president Of the church
society which sought the privilege Of run
ming refreshment stand to the. Italian
fakir who had some new scheme from
which he had hopes of wealth.
Under the management Of Lyman D.
Baird, superintendent of privileges, the
sale progressed rapidly. Prices were 100
per cent above those paid last year. Bid
ding was lively and the auctioneer and his
clerk were kept busy handling the offers.
It was noticeable that the character of the
cencessionaires average much better
than usual. The increased value of the
privileges will tend to keep away all but
the best class. ...~ v
Long before the sale was closed it was
estimated that the total receipts from
privileges this year would reach at least
$4,000, President >Cosgrove, Vice Presi-
dent Smith and various members Of the
board OF managers were on hand during
tha day.

GUILTY OF NO CRIME.
Judge Harvey Objects to Treatment
of Insane as Criminals. :
STRONG TALK TO COUNTY BOARD
No Place of Detention for Insane
Pending ExaminatiOnS
by Court.

Hot under the collar because no &C
commodations have been provided for his
wards, Judge F. G. Harvey of the probate
court made a vigorous talk to the county
commissioners this morning. The law.
says expressly that suitable quarters for
the detention Of insane people must be
provided in county jails. The Henne-
pin county commissioners have never pro-.
vtded such quarters. There is room
called the insane ward, but it is
place of bars, bolts and locks, and is ex-
actly like the big cellroom except in
size. 1t is a jail and does not comply
with the law
Months ago Judge Harvey began to urge
the commissioners in the cause OF human
ity, to provide a proper place for the
unfortunates who come to him every day,
but not a single move has been made.
To-day a young man from j "a Crosse,
Wis, who was under the spell of an
insane melancholia, was brought to jail.
There was nothing that the ja1lor coulo
do except to put him behind the bars in
cell. Then the poor fellow. in fear
and anger, became violent, and tossed
and struggled about his iron barred cell
! like a madman.
| When taken before Judge Harvey the
poor fellow became quite rational agar
under the soothing Influence of kind treat
ment and ordinary surroundings.
| Judge Harvey notified the sheriff tina
he must not put the patient behind tn
bars again. He had no further instruc
tions to give except that the man mus
have proper care and attention. Thel
he waited on the county commissioner
and said things.
Some days ago Judge Harvey contracte
a bill of Sc in order that an insane woma1
should not be treated as felon. AM

DOWN TO BUSINESS
Those in Charge of Employers and
Employees Convention.
MEETING oFaGENERAL COMMITTEE
Commercial Club Through Public
Affairs Committee Expected \
to Take Hold.

Preparations for the convention Of en-
ployers ard employees to he held in Min
neapolis early in September will probably
be actively undertaken at public meet
ing to be held Tuesday noon at the Com
mercial club. The club, through it's pub
lie affairs committee, will be asked to
lend active support to the project.
1t is expected that the club will take
hold of the proposal enthusiastically and
take such action, with the convention
scarcely more than a north away, as to
insure the success of the meeting along
the lines that marked the recent educa-
ticnal association meeting.
1t was Announced at a meeting Of the
general convention committee this morn
ing that arrangements had progressed so
far already that Minneapolis could not
afford to withhold substantial backing
without discredit to the city. This situa-
tion is due particularly to the fact that
every city Of Importance in the United
States has already been notified that such
a convention is to be held. The lead
ing repres entatives of capital and labor
and the great authorities on questions of
vital interest to employer and employe
have already been interested In the con-
| vention. MANY Of them have signi1ed
| their willingness to. come. ~
Railroad Rate Problem.
George Rockwell, secretary of the gen
eral committee, explained that the e~ques-
| tion that demanded immediate settle
ment, as affecting the success of the
| convention in point Of attendance, was
that Of satisfactory railroad rates. The
railroads, he explained, were unwilling
to make any definite concessions as tc
reduced rates until some satisfactory as
surances could be given as to the prob
able attendance. He thought that con.
servative estimate was 5000, mostly from
within a radius of from 500 to 700 miles
Thomas Lowry expressed the belief
that the time was singularly opportunt
for such convention. The recent strike
of freight handlers and teamsters al
Chicago had developed a new phase o
| the labor question, showing that an.
large city could at any time be seriousl,
menraced by starvation. Such possibilit7
he said was sufficient in itself to cal
for a session extraordinary of the grea
thinkers on both sides of the labor ques
| tion. He was convinced that ther
would be delegates from every state Il
the union.
1t is felt that the Commercial clu
should take hold of the plans for tn
convention and look after the detail
| necessary to its success.

From a Staff Correspondent.
Huron, S. D., Aug. 2.-Crop results have
practically assured another year of &C
tivity in southern Minnesota and. South
Dakota lands. There is every indication
that values on good lands will be sup
ported, if they do not go some higher in
the next twelve months. This, assuming
that, general prosperity holds somewhere

marveling at immigration results and the
rapid advance in cheap lands in the newer
sections, many of them have lost sight Of
the fact that in southern Minnesota and
the older sections of South Dakota much
high grade land has changed hands at
steadily increasing prices. One of the
present boasts of business men and farm
ers in the southern Minnesota counties is
While some of this is for specula tion,

HAIL MEN HARD HIT
1902 an Off Year for About All the
Companies. 49, 49,.
ADJusrERs MORE THAN BUSY
Storms More Numerous and Much
More Destructive Than in the
Good Year 1901.

From Staff Correspondent.
Huron; S. D., Aug. 2.-This is an "oh
year. for hail insurance companies doing
business in the northwest. Hail storms
have been so numerous and so destructive
to grain that the balance sheet for many
companies at the end OF the year Will lack
the fat showing of 1901. =.
Hail companies have big forces of ad-
justers in all parts of the northwest maxi
ing the final roundup on damaged grain.
This has necessitated the, drafting into
service of about every available man
capable of adjusting hailloss. J..
No part of the three states in the CEN
trail northwest" has been exempt from hail
this season. While the recent storm ap-
pears to give North Dakota the ribbon for
the largest hail swept district, every sec
tion has been visited. Comparatively
small storms which swoop down and de-
molish but a few hundred acres have been
numerous, more so than in, any recent
years. These have occasioned much loss
in South Dakota and southern, Minnesota.
The aggregate loss to the insurance COM
panies and the farmer is large
There are communities which seem to
have faithful hoodoo coaxing the hail
their way. The recent storms in north
ern Minnesota and North Dakota swept
| through grain districts which have been
frequently visited in the past six years
and at the same time freakishly skipping
others in the vicinity in which hail has
| been a rarity. On the other hand, COM
munities in southern Minnesota have lost
! grain from hail this season for the first
| time in their history. The recent storm
which swept through Lyon and Redwood
counties picked out virgin district for
part of it's path. One farmer IN eastern
Lyon county who lost his entire crop,
1000 acres of fine grain, figured that the
general results had been favorable after
ALL as this was the first crop he had lost
from any cause in his twepty years
residence in that section. =: ''
First reports OF hail losses are usually
misleading. The farmer who has seen a
shower of ice spoil the looks OF fine field
! of grain cannot be blamed II, In panic, he
notified his company that his loss is total
But frequently these total losses prove to
be only partial, the farmer being able
to harvest portion of the crop. Adjust
ers say there are more total losses this
year, proportionately, than usual
Last year generally was good year fol
the hail companies. Some Of them made
big money, paying good dividends and
putting a good balance in the surplus ac
count. Luck, Is not with them as stront
this season. w. e. Davis.
