IMPORTANT DECISION.
500 Road will Have to Condemn or
Buy Right Of Way in RichIand
County

Buy Right Of Way in RichIand
County.
The recent dicision of the supreme
court in the right of way case in Rich
land county is held of great import
ance by a Wahpeton correspondent
who says:
When the 500 railroad was built
across this state it passed over what
was then the Cleveland farm in this
county The right of way for about
four miles was given the railroad com
pany, the consideration being that
depot and station grounds were to be
erected and maintained at certain
point within the limits of the farm, and
in case the company failed to maintain
the station there, then the land
granted for right of way should revert
to the original owners.
For about ten years the station was
maintained Dut later removed and the
place abandoned as station The
original owners then brought an action
in ejectment to get possession of the
right of way strip. The company set
up as a defense that the railway was
an artery of travel, carrying passen-
gers, and freight, and that such an
action would be against public policy.
as railroad is semi public corpor-
alton
The district court decided in favor
of the original owners and issued a
writ to remove the track To this
I judgment the company appealed which
! judgment was affirmed
The company may. if it chooses, con
denim the land and pay for it, but the
damages to all the land surrounding
must be paid, which will make an ex
pensive right of way. Should the.
refuse to condemn, the only thing thel
to do is for the sheriff to tear up tn,
track. 1t is the coast line.

Inc lndnCler says. line most notable
feature of the official statement of the New
York Associated Banks last week was the
close correspondence between the decrease
of cash and the loss In this item, as esti-
mated on the basis of the traceable move
ments of money during the week, the off,
cial statement showing a reduction Of s4-
376, 800, while the estimates indicated a loss
of 81, 523, 600 This decrease in cash was chief
ly caused by absorption by the subtreasury
on account of fiscal and other operations.
The customs payments were large, amount
ing to $3,471, 1885, and the receipts by the
treasury through the banks for those of
their correspondents which were retiring
circulation, were $1925,000, while another.
extraordinary receipt by the subtreasury
was 100000 for a claim against one of the
Pacific railroads. These several payments,
therefore, aggregated $5997.ooo and the OFF,
setting receipts by the banks from the sub
treasury were comparatively small, includ-
ing Sl,252, 900 for pensions. The net loss to
the banks through the subtreasury absorp-
tons $4.115, 400. There also a loss.
which, however, was not large, caused by
the interior movement, this resulting in a
decrease of s1666.6O0 in cash. The receipts
of 81, 25S, 400 new gold aided in reducing the
decrease in cash for the week to S4,523, 600
as above. Deposits fell off S.. 1880. which
amount only $3.50, 600 less than that
called for by the loss of cash and the reduc-
ton of loans; therefore the statement very
nearly balances. The required reserve was
diminished 81, ,325 through the decreased
deposits and deducting this sum from the
loss of cash leaves $2.19S,575 as the reduction
in surplus reserve, which now is S13 la. 625; ;
computed on the basis of deposits less those
of $37, 359, 900 of public funds. however, the
surplus is s22.513375. The loans were re-
duced $4,527 900 during the week. This prob
ably was partly due to the liquidation Of
speculative accounts on the Stock Exchange
caused by the somewhat unsettling fall in
the steel and other shares. One feature was
an increase of s56s. 100 in circulation, follow
ing a gain of 1927, 400 in this item i'm the pre-
vious week. 1t may be noted that the loans
of the banks now exceed the deposits by
$40 57s 500, the largest since the middle of
July; this. however, is not an unfavorable
factor

CORN CROP BY STATES.
What the Yield Would He III a Perfect
Crop Were Grown.

Chicago Special in New York Post
Taking the figures on the corn crop as
furnished by the Department of Agricu-
ture, and applying basis of thirty bushels
as representing a perfect corn crop for the
country, Ii suggests a crop of 2,106. 00O 900
bushels a condition of 1871 This is 90
100000 bushels less than suggested in July,
and 100000 less than in 1902 These
figures come nearer the final returns of
the department In its final estimates than
any others that have been made for years.
The crop figured by States presents start
ling decreases from last month and from
last year in all the leading States The
seven surplus producing States which last
year produced ,703 600. 600 bushels are only
10 have l,25o,00O,o00 bushels, with present
conditions maintained. They indicate loss
from the July estimates of 81, OOc 900 bushels
and from the final returns of last year of
i53.00O.0O0 bushels, but again 100000 BUSH
els 1901.
The heaviest loss from last year is by
Missouri-l07.00 100000 bushels. Illinois, which
has for years been the banner corn State
is short 105,o00,0O0 bushels, Iowa $1,000, 900
bushels, Kansas 520o0,000 bushels, Nebras-
ka 81. 00oCO0 bushels. Ohio 81, 000. 600 bushels
and Indiana 50,O00O00 bushels. Iowa is the
only one OF the surplus States that does
not show an increase the poor crop of
1901, and the estimate of 10000, 900 bushels
for IL places IL on the level with that year
when IL had the best crop in the country

The Stumbling Horse.
Denver Times.

OenVeI lluSS
This is an annoying ailment. and one that
Is hard to cure. The horse that stumbles
should not be whipped for the accident, says
an exchange. He may stumble because he is
badly shod. He may have nervous disor-
der that occasionally causes him to lose
control over one another part of the
nerves that are used In his complicated
work Of walking trotting or running while
pulling load or holding it back Whatever
may be the cause of his stumbling, whip
ping the stumbler will do no good. The
horse does not stumble for pleasure
through design. Stumbling is painful to
him. Just why he should be tortured with
a whip after his whole nervous and muscu-
lar system has been wrenched in a stumble
and struggle to keep his feet no one can
tell The whipping comes after the accident.
The horse does not understand that the
singing flashing is a warning to him not to
stumble again. He regards it merely as an
added torture. The defect is a serious one
generally and often cannot be remeded
without long rest in the pasture. If the
horse can be turned out and let run for
year he may get all right again, this when
all other remedies fail TO help him.

LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
MERCHANTS HAD A GOOD WEEK IN
NEARLY ALL LINES.
Outside Buyers Were Numerous and
Bought LiberaIIy-Prices Steady to
Ffrm-Light Grain Markets.

The week ended Saturday. with a majority
Of the merchants, has been very busy. The
state fair brought many merchants to the
city to visit the fair and purchase goods.
and, fortunately for the local dealers, there
were one or two days too disagreeable to
be at the fair. which time was improved
by the country merchants in visiting the
wholesale houses looking over stocks and
ta' king over business in a general way.
That both the wholesale and retail mer-
chants profited by such conferences was
quite apparent. Many Of the outside mer
chants are not aware of the immensely of
some OF the dry goods houses. groceries,
drug and confectionery entrepots in this
city. There are but very few points which
have larger stores more of them. and
Indianapolis merchants pride themselves in
the fact that they carry the best lines of
goods and sell them at prices which defy
competition. The dry goods houses had
fine run OF trade, as did the millinery
houses and boot and shoe merchants. The
confectioners seldom sell more goods in
week than they did in the week ended Sept.
-. and the same remark will apply to the
druggists. who are carrying a more ex-
tended line OF goods than in any former
year. The hardware houses and iron stores
also enjoyed big trade, and prices in this
line have fiuctuated so little of late that
merchants were free buyers. Commission
houses had busy week. Home consump-
tion of eatables was large. and there Is
good demand for apples, potatoes, cabbage
and like articles Butter and cheese are
holding their own at prices ruling through
the entire week. Eggs are firm at the re-
cent 2-cent advance, and reports from coun-
try shippers are TO the effect that eggs are
very scarce and probably will be higher be-
fore long. Poultry is steady at the re-
vision of Thursday, demand and supply be-
ing fairly well balanced. Coffee IS stronger
in primary markets, but the advance is not
yet affecting roasted grades. Sugars show
but little change. which is a disappointment
to refiners, who claim to have had poor
season, with demand much lighter than ex-
pected. The seed market shows some ac-
tivity. The only change of late in
clover seed, which rules easier.

GRAINS ARE VERY WEAK
NEARLY A CENT Is KNOCKED OFF
THE PRICE OF WHEAT.
Corn Loses a Cent and Half, and
Oats Major FractiOn-Mixed
Changes in Hog Products.

CHICAGO. Sept. 1s.-Grains were ex-
tremely weak the greater part of the ses-
sion, although wheat steadied somewhat
at the close. December was 7sc lower.
while corn was down nc. with oats on
5sQAc. Provisions were irregular, closing
&c higher to 35c lower.
Fine weather and the bearish feeling in
other markets, with free selling by the
Northwest, accentuated the weakness in
wheat. Longs sold out, some because they
had profits; others owing to the action or
corn and on general bearish conditions.
December started 1sc TO Ac lower, at SO14c
to S0asc, and on steady cables and small
receipts, which induced commission houses
TO buy early, sold up to S015QSO5sc. But the
advance was short lived, and when the
selling started there was little support.
Stop loss orders were executed on the
downward course and contributed to the
weakness. December touched 79hc, and an
important firm took on sufficient to bring
about a small reaction. The close was
barely steady, with December at 1850, a
loss of &c. Clearances of wheat and flour
were equal to 169631 blu, with primary re-
ceipts 96S, 100 hu, against 1887, 400 year
ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported re-
cepts of 4S2 cars, which, with local re-
ceipts of 6S cars-none of contract grade
made total of $50 cars.
Corn conditions were similar to those
which effected the weakness in wheat and
prices continued to give way before the
flood Of offerings, which came from all
directions. The early market was fairly
steady at a small decline, but later long
corn came out in abundance and stop loss
orders increased the weakness There was
a little support offered when a loss of over
a cent had been recorded in December, and
the close was &c above the bottom, at
49lsc-a net loss of 11zc having sold down
from 509sc Receipts were 1861 cars. " OF
contract grade.
There was but little support at any time
in oats. the weakness in corn and wheat
causing outside holders to sell out. There
was a considerable quantity of oats on the
market owing to stop loss orders. De-
cember ranged between 37Bc and 3SAc,
closing at CSC, loss of asQAc. Receipts
were II cars.
Provisions were weak and there were
lower prices throughout the list, except for
ribs. Selling for outside account by the
corn market was the chief factor. Octo-
Der lard closed 35c lower at S13.35, with
pork off 10c at $S15. October ribs closed
&c higher at &c. TO- there being some de-
mand for this product by shorts.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
l00 cars; corn, $40; oats, 120; hogs, 80, 900
head.
