BEARS DRIVE
WHEAT DOWN
Their Forces Are Larger, Due to
Accumulation Of Stocks
Here.

The bears made furious drive in
wheat today to close the week, and
after half an hour Of trading prices
at the Chamber Of Commerce went
down to $1.091a for December wheat
and SLIP for May.
At these prices December was IL
cents down from the recent high point
and May 91a cents lower.
The fact that stocks are accumulate
ing here and that 100000 bushels are
now in Minneapolis elevators, has made
great many bearish, but the bulls
say they are OVERRIDING it, and some
day it will be bull market.
Before the close another slam of a
cent was made and December wheat
fell to $1.O8% and May to $1.11A.
The old curb market at the Chamber
Of Commerce has been revived. About
two months ago the directors abolished
it, but sentiment in the trade favors
return to it. Commencing Monday
the time limit will be removed and
trading may continue in the pit as long
as the traders care to remain around.
The old rule will not be officially re
scinded, but it is understood that the
directors will wink at the trading, and
will not oppose an unofficial return to
the former arrangement. -~-

Much interest is conferred in the case

trial before Judge A. M. Harrison. The
defendant, together with Robert Berg
lund and Peter Scholl, well known real
estate men, is charged with uttering a
forged instrument whereby one Moses
Price was defrauded.
Z A jury was secured yesterday after
noon and Moses Price told his story.
According to this testimony the three
defendants combined to beat him out of
his clearinghouse on Franklin avenue.
In buying the place they gave him a
note for 1870 purporting to be exc.
cuted by Solomon Eckburg and running
to John Hankinson. The note was Sc.
cured by mortgage on piece of Min.
netonka property claimed to be owned
by Eckberg.
Becoming suspicious, Mr.. Price began
to investigate. The defendant would
not tell him who either Of the parties
to the note were, but he discovered thai
Eckberg was an inmate of the work
house and that he had made no note
and owned no property at Minnetonka
or elsewhere. He now claims that the
note was a forged instrument and thai
he was defrauded.
Price stated that after he found hi
had been duped he went back to hi

Myrtle Moody, 914 Summer street NE,
defended herself from A. II. Swenson,
a canvasser, who attempted to take
by force portrait on which a balance
remained unpaid. She SO completely
saturated the mans clothing with the
oil that all that was needed was a match
to turn him into human torch.
Swenson called at Mrs. Moody IS home
yesterday morning to collect $3.50 on a
portrait she had purchased weeks be-
fore. She told him that she could not
make payment at the time and re
quested him to wait. Swenson said he
would have to take the picture and Mrs.
Moody refused. He then tried to go
into the room where the portrait was
hanging and she blocked his way.
Swenson seized the woman and threw
her into the coal box, injuring her
shoulder. She threw stool at him and
then caught up the kerosene can, strik-
ing at him with it.. He threw up his
hands to ward off the blow and the oil
saturated his clothing. She made sec.
ond charge and the man took to his
heels, leaving the portrait hanging on
the wall. -. ~.
