Inere was some diversity of opinion
among the Minneapolis grain men as
TO the effect of the storms in the
Northwest upon the wheat market
The most immediate affect was seen
In the September option, which was
advanced from S5B cents at Satur-
days close to 1914 cents yesterday.
The reason for this is apparent. Trad
ers who have sold wheat for Septem-
Der delivery, in expectation of being
able to fill their contracts with wheat
received here, see very little hope of
being able to do so now, as threshing
Will necessarily be delayed until the
end OF this week and some say until
the ground is frozen up.
One prominent firm of brokers ad-
V1sed its customers to make their
Der wheat selling at $1.25. 1t was
pointed out, however, that the fact
that the weather was cold was in
favor Of the wheat and that If cool
weather with good drying winds fol-
lowed the rain there would not be
much damage done beyond lowering
the grade of the wheat in shock.
Various estimates were made as to the
proportion of the crop that would be
thus affected
In South Dakota, it is said, there is
ing to be done. In North Dakota and
Northern Minnesota 1t was thought
there was from one-third to a half of
the crop In the fields. In many points
In North Dakota. according to Ed
wards, Wood & Co.'s advices the rains
have been accompanied by winds of
high velocity, which have torn the
shocks apart, and the sheaves are
thoroughly water soaked
No very appreciable effect was seen
In the trading for wheat to be deliver
ed In December and May, the price of
the former being advanced less than
three quarters of a cent and the lat
ter little more than accent.
While the question of Immediate
supplies is the important factor in
September wheat, the lack of export
trade. and the large shipments from
Russia and the Danube exert a potent
influence upon the later months.
Should good export demand develop
.as is confidently expected will be
the case-the general opinion is that
December wheat will be just as high
as September is now, If not higher.

HIS ROMANCE ENDS.
Picture Leads to Marriage and
Now Causes Divorce.

CHICAGO, Sept. 14.-Albert Royal
belmont, once known as the Monte
-Cristo of st. LOUIS has been sued for
a divorce by his wife, formerly Miss
Isabel Agnes Mulhall, famous South
ern beauty, and the daughter of Col.
John Mulhall, ST. Louis millionaire.
Desertion is the ground for the petition
hied by Mrs. belmont today.
Mrs. belmont is now on the stage.
Her husband, who formerly lived in
Cincinnati, is said to be clerking in a
State street store. In the petition Mrs.
belmont declares she has received no
support from her husband for many
months, and that he has deserted her.
She asks for decree of absolute di-
vorce from the man who gave her a.
100000 life insurance policy for a we'd
ding present.
Married when belmont was at the
height of his prosperity, startling st.
Louis by his reckless and lavish ex-
penditure of his money, which seemed
to be inexhaustible, the couple attract
ed the widest attention. Soon reverses
followed, and they came to Chicago,
where belmont lost the rest of his for
tune. The divorce proceedings Is the
last chapter in the interesting tale
Miss Mulhall, as one of the dashing
beauties OF St- Louis, was a friend of a
prominent artist, who was Pointing a
picture for the Planters hotel She
consented to sit as the central figure.
No sooner had belmont seen the pic
ture than he sought out the artist.
who is the girl?" he asked.
Miss Mulhall,' was the artists re-
ply.
'T must meet her." said belmont.
"She is the daughter of one of the
most exclusive families in the South"
said the artist
II will marry her." declared belmont.
1t was at the time that the belmont
dinners and entertainments were daz-
zling st. Louis. He won the girl, and
their marriage was one of the events Of
which ST. Louis society still talks.
In 1895 belmont came to Chicago
and operated a branch OF Arthur r.
Jones & Co. until the firm was expelled
from the Board of Trade.

have decided to adopt only guerrilla
tactics in Eastern Macedonia. The pol
icy OF occupying towns and villages has
proved mistake, as 1t has usually re-
suited in Turkeys reoccupying the VIII
iages, destroying everything and killing
the inhabitants, the insurgents being
hampefed In their operations by the
women and children. A guerrilla war
fare is expected to exhaust the Turks
much sooner, while the unhampered
bands can move more easily and more
rapidly. 1t is hoped that the new tao
tics will result in the women and chill
dren being spared unnecessary dan
gers.
The insurgents now have nearly 1000
men armed with rifles in Eastern Mace
donia, and thousands of peasants are
ready to join their forces when a gen.
eral rising has been proclaimed. This
step is delayed until a supply of rifles,
cartridges and dynamite is received.
New bands aggregating 1000 men are
reported to be on their way to the
frontier. The Turkish forces now in
Eastern Macedonia are estimated at
1900.
In the conflicts in the mountains of
Pirin the Turks are reported to have
lost heavily in dead, while a great
many were wounded. The revolution
aries had only one slightly wounded.

found in Sofia outside the garrison.

WILLMAR, Mimi, Sept. 1.-THE ac-
counts Of the late City Recorder Sam
uel Osmundson have been checked
over by financial expert, w. H. Dom
aldson, of Minneapolis, during the past
six weeks. The result was acted on by
the city council tonight. During five
years the finances examined showed a
shortage of $5.S5O.17, found mainly in
the municipal light and water ac-
counts. The finance committee is CEN
sured for failure to detect the obvious
discrepancies in the annual reports.

when the receipts were $4O,046.62, as
nearly as could be ascertained, no rec
ord whatever could be found in the
recorders books for ten months.
1t is thought that the recorder was
not alone to profit by the peculations.
further Investigations as to what be-
came of the funds will be demanded.

Washington. D. c.. July 18.-A report from
Manila to the Marine Hospital Service says the
majority of cholera cases continue on vessels
lying in the shallow side Of the Pasig River, be-
tween the Bridge of Spain and It's mouth, The
report says that this indicates that the river
must be infected especially near, the banks
where the water is sluggish and does not readily
mix with that in the current.
1t is here also that the native crews battle,
and it is no uncommon sight to see them dip
this water up and it for drinking and for
washing vegeta bles Assistant Surgeon Long is
making a special investigation Of this matter.
If the of this infection could be definitely
determined, no doubt a remedy could be supplied
which would result in ridding Manila entirely of
cholera.
Two inter-island vessels have been reported as
having had cholera aboard after leaving this
port but the report says the islands are so gen
orally infected throughout that 1t is scarcely
