The Bulk Of the Receipts Come
from the Great Northern's
Good Territory.
Trade Quiet and the Bulls In
clined to Do Little Just at
Present.
NAV Wheat Sells Down g. Bit,
Closing the Day Easy at
$1.15A. ~

Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce,
Feb. 25.-The effect Of the cleaning
out Of country stocks in North Dakota,
in advance Of the appearance OF the
tax assessor, was shown on 'change
again today, for there were $40 cars OF
wheat in here against 281 year ago.
Most of this came in over the Great
Northern, and other roads that get some
of the big North Dakota tonnage. In
the report for yesterday it was found
the thesv Great ire Northern. Whether the bulls
can do anything, now that this run of
stuff to market has commenced, may be
doubted. For a time this will continue.
! After it is over, then perhaps the trade
may turn around to the bull side
but today most Of the talk heard was
rather Of the bearish sort.
Minneapolis elevator stocks-de-
creased for the week by 70,498 bu,
leaving 12,530,647 bu in store, and for
one day there is decrease of 10000 bu.
This is no such decrease as the bulls
had looked for. Unless demand picks
up or receipts fall of, no greater de-
and SO the trade will go into March
with over 100000 bu of wheat here.
After that time the stocks should fall
! off more noticeably. Meanwhile the
market drags-and today May wheat
was down to $1.l5A at the close.

sas City against 129 900, and $4,000 at

Broornhall estimates the worlds ship

Western and Omaha Make Heavy
Gains.

New York, Feb. 25.-There has been
considerable speculative excitement on
the stock exchange this week and price
movements in the southern iron group
became SO extravagant as to awaken
distrust and fears of corner. Unfa-
vorable reports Of railroad traffic owing
to stormy weather and the continuance
Of the export grain rate war were ig
nored. More attention was paid to the
hardening money market due to large
credit requirements and the check to
receipts of currency from the interior.
News played a small part in the mar
ket, which was largely dominated by
speculative enthusiasm.
The sensational movements with
which the stock market closed yester-
day were continued at hte opening this
morning. Sales Of 10000 shares Of New
York Central were made. from 1853 to
l59, compared with 1851 last night.
Twenty thousand shares Of Pennsylva-
mia sold at l42A and 142A with a later
advance to l43%, compared with l4lA
Fifteen thousand shares Of Union Paci-
withe 1858 last night. There were.
ing, Rock Island, illinois Central I's and
members Of the Canadian group and
large fractional advances in Brooklyn

Union Pacific got Il higher than the
opening; North estern rose in all,
and Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis &

ment in the few leaders had an intimi-
dating effect on sentiment and the

vania to l44B, and St.. Paul on enor-
Union Faeihc rose again again to to 49, 49, but

DEFORESTING MOUNTAINS
Christmas Tree Traffic a Menace to
the Piney Woods.
Mi1waukee SAntinol.


"The young forests of Colorado are
in an alarming condition on account of
the annual Christmas tree harvest,'
said William H. Elliott Of Fort Collins,
Col, "and a systematic effort is to be
made to secure passage by the legisla-
ture of laws designed to protect the
young pine and spruce trees, of which
the forests Of the state are principally
composed. The State Realty associa-
tion has been aroused and is giving ac-
tive cooperation to the forestry COM
mission in the matter. .-.
cit is estimated that at least 150,-
900 trees were cut this season: The av-
erage agesof the trees was Is years.
It is evident that at this alarming rate
the mountains Of Colorado will soon be
as bare as the hills Of Vermont, which
long ago were practically stripped Of
their vegetation for the purpose of Civ
ing transitory pleasure to people at
Christmas time. e. ~, -.5>+
teThe- legislation which is proposed
will make the selling Of trees under a
certain age misdemeanor. A state
commission to inspect and tag the
trees is also contemplated. Such a
measure will do much to preserve the
beauty of the mountains. ..,-

WHAT TIME rs IT, PLEASE?
Try and Tell Without Looking at Your
Watch Again,

Next time you see man look at his
watch, wait till he puts it back in his
pocket and then ask him what time it
is. The chances are ten to one he can
not tell you without looking again.
The figures on the dial make no posi-
tive impression on his mind. They
speak only to his sqb E a! iousness and
that he will be in time, or late, for an

the V on the dial point toward center

matter, but half the people one meets

Russian to enbalm corpses by casting
around them a solid mass Of glass. This
would be perfectly transparent, and as
no air could get in the, features would be
preserved Indefinitely. OF course it is not
possible to pour molten glass directly on
the body, SO it is first coated with a
thin covering of so-called liquid glass, 7"

harden and forms a protective coating.
The body is then put in mold and
