Chicago. July 10,-A New York special
to the Evening Post claims that the
parties back of the corn deal are Fran
els M. Drake, ex-governor Of Iowa, Will
lam H. Moore, James H. Moore, Will
lam B. Leeds and Daniel G. Reid. The
distribution of orders in the recent man
ipulation which has resulted in such a
sensational market has been in charge
of D. G. Reid. This party was formed last
fall and the deal has been in progress
since then. Ex-Governor Drake has long
been, known as sas successful trader in
corn. ~ e d. = = u
One of the amusing facts in connection
with the corn deal is that John Drake,
son of the ex-governor of Iowa., has been
short of corn several times and each time
has been compelled to cover at a loss.
There is q report that the deal has
been settled.
Ninety cents for July corn was the fig
ure at which it was asserted that the

WEALTH OF WESTERN FARMS
6ountifuI Crops the Rule for Many
Successive Years.

The big wheat farms of the Dako-
tas are being broken up into smaller
holdings, and the conditions there are
becoming like those of states farther
south, where the average size of a
farm is 250 acres. Out of it all the
farmer is growing Independent. Five
great crop years have just been ended
on the plains.
Beginning with the crop of 1897,
the wheat as been good every year.
Not always has it been record break
er in every community, but generally
it has returned a great harvest. The
farmer estimates the cost of his crop
at $3.50 an acre; if he gets thirty
bushels an acre and sells it for so
cents he has profit of $3.50 an acre.
On 100 acres it is $3.50; on 1000
acres, $7,500-and there are many
hundred farmers with the latter acre
age.
What have they done? A. Miner
came to York county Nebraska, ten
years ago with just enough to buy
eighty acres of land. He lived in a
sod house, and lost everything in the
hard times OF the early nineties. Now

The Record of the Fourth.

Possibly 1T may not be a bad
thing for the Filipinos and our
other co,onists after all that they
are to be excluded from sharing
with us the enthusiasms and joy
full demon strations of Indepen-
dence Day. The Chicago Tribune,
according to it's custom, has com
piled list of casualties attending
the celebration this year in the
nation proper, and the l,curd is
rather disrouraging.
The number of killed, it is stat.
ed, was 81, which is probably as
much as in any battle in the Phil
ippinos. The number of wound-
ed was 2,649 which is considera>
bly, more than the record of any
battle in the Philippines. The
damage by fire was, however, sur
prisingly small, the total loss on
that account beng placed at only
a quarter of a million dollars,
which was probably considerably
less than the cost Of the fireworks
that caused the damage.
In the way of'detaiis, it is shown
that In Philadelphia, the fountain
of independence, one person was
killed and 43s injured, giving that
city the record for injured for the
day. In Chicago, four were kill
ed and Ill injured. In New York
73 were injured. Boston reported
