a special crop bulletin issued this
morning by the Northwestern Miller,
reported the discovery Of black rust
in the wheat fields of the Red river
valley in North Dakota.
The report was conservative and free
from sensationalisnn. The views of the
special correspondents of the Miller
ewho are now covering the valley are
that the wheat has chance to yield
well with proper weather, but the sit

The market advanced ~ cents upon

COMPANIES MEET TO REQUEST
AUTHORITY FROM COMMISSION
FOR CHANGES, BUT DO NOT
AGREE.

Representatives Of the various e1-
press companies operating in Minnesota
met with the state railroad and ware
house commission at the capitol today.
Several of the companies desired APP
prevail of changes made in rates. On
shipments of paper boxes and whisky,
new classifcations had been made on
weight schedules, which We're somewhat
in excess Of the former rates. These
We're desired by all the companies.
Discussion brought forth some other
changes by certain companies which
were not agreeable to all. The United
States company objected to the Great
Northern carrying berries from Minne-
sofa on an exact-weight schedule, when
other companies followed the rule of
charging so much per crate, and also
to the Great Northern IS carrying beer
"empties' at 5 cents each when the
others returned them free.
The railroad commission took the
matter under consideration.
Among those present at the hearing
were E. S. Averill Of Chicago. general
