Market for Bran.
The difficulty which the millers have
had in connection with the plan for grind
ing wheat in bond has been finding mar
ket for bran. 1t is believed here that
this difficulty has been overcome as the
application for permission to bond one
OF the mills indicates that the company is
willing to comply with all the regulations.
AS soon as all the formalities required by
the department are complied with the
Washburn- Crosby company will be
granted permission to go ahead and grind
imported wheat for export.
This will make unnecessary the plan
proposed last week to have an officer of
customs located at Minneapolis and is
much simpler method of doing business
than heretofore.

Joint European Protest Against Gu
ban-American Reciprocity.
London, March 11.-De1egates from sew
eral chambers of commerce visited the
foreign secretary, Lord LansdOWne, to-
day, and presented memorial, pointing
out that it was feared that when the adj
ministration of Cuba was handed over to
the Cubans a reciprocity treaty would be
negotiated giving preference to American
products and manufactures. Says the
memorial:
Such reciprocity treaty would undoubted-
ly put an end to European trade with the
island. The chambers, therefore, most ear
nestly request that the utmost effort be made
by his majesty's minister at Washington te
prevent the signing of any such treaty, or
at least, to see that the most favored treat
ment be continued by Cuba to this country.
1t Is epresented that French and Ger
man interests would suffer by reci-
procity treaty and joint protest is sug-
gested.

Care for the West Only.
Eastern republicans are fearful of the
character of the speeches the insurgent
republicans would make in both houses.
said one of them to-day to western
member:
''Why, what you propose would retire
us from the business. We can't be re-
elected If the speeches you will make are
circulated in our districts by democrats

while most of you will stay at home This
is simply putting the shoe on the other
foot. You thought you could retire us
from business by your ways and means
PLAN"
AS explaining what is here mentioned,
it may be said If there should be a tariff
debate as Indicated, every member from
Minnesota and the Dakotas and middle
west generally, would make a long
speech enlarging on the features of the
Dingley law that are offensive to his peo-
pie. The result would be chaos and the
ways and means leaders do not want to
invite 1t.
Therefore it makes little real difference

London, March 11.-Reports from the
