FLAXRECEIPTSM MAY BULGE
WITH GOOD WEATHER CONSIDER,
ABLE MIGHT MOVE TO MARKET
IN SEPTEMBER.

In view Of the recent strength in September
seed review of September receipts for past
years will be interesting.
One of the largest September receipts was in
1899, and curiously enough the premium that year
got out to what was then considered extravagant
figures, &c q bushel. 1t closed the month, how.
ever, at about October price. In 1901, on account
of heavy rains about the 9Th to the 18th Of Sep
TENDER, the premium touched 15c and held around
1Oc for several days.
The following are the September receipts foi
the past ten years, as compiled by the Duluth

TINUED STRENGTH IN THE BOS-
TON MARKET. = s- "a +, ,se+.s .....

Boston dispatch to the Chicago Trade Bull
letin says: TRADERS agree that the strength
Of the wool market during the marketing of the
present clip is assured. Trading has been quiet,
chiefly because Of the comparative scarcity of
new woods. Altho the available offerings Of ter
ritory woods are slowly increasing, they are still
small and some time will elapse before dealers
able to show any but the most moderate
amount Of wool for selection. In this market
territory woods are in fair movement, but there
Is a stronger market for quarterblood whose
position has been improved by the higher prices
obtained abroad for crossbreeds Pulled woods
are scarce. Foreign woods are strong"

WOMAN S COSTLY
JEWELS MISSING
Mrs. Linderberg's Necklace
Disappears From Palace
in a Mysterious Manner

The house detectives Of the Palace
Hotel and the local police are endeav-
oring 10 find trace of a $1,000 diamond
necklace that was until a few nights
ago the highly priced property of Mrs
Jafet Linderberg. wife of the well
known millionaire mining man of
Nome. While Mrs Linderberg is not
certain whether the disappearance OF
her jeweled neck adornment was due
to her carelessness or TO theft. she
deemed II advisable to make the fact
that 1t was gone known to the man
agement of the Palace, which promptly
instituted a search for the necklace and
called in the assistance of the police.
According to the statement made
yesterday by Jafet Linderberg, his
wife missed the necklace two nights
ago, while she was engaged in pack
parture OF herself and husband for Sc
attle last evening. Thinking that pos
sibly the necklace might have been
misplaced Mrs. Lfnderberg made a
careful search OF all her trunks. but
without result, and then 1t was that
the matter was called to the attention
of the hotel management.
Mrs. Linderberg usually wore the
necklace during the evenings and she
was still In doubt as to whether It
might have slipped from her neck
while going from or coming to the ho-
tel or while she was sitting In the
court. For that reason she was reiuc-
tant to advance the theory of theft that
is usually the hasty conclusion OF no.
tel guests when they lose valuable ar
ticles. At any rate, the police and ho-
tel detectives are eagerly looking for
the string of gems

PROUD OF HIS COUNTRY.
Baron Komura Says Japan's Financial
Capabflify Surprises the World.


TOXIC, May 26.-Baron komura. Min
ister Of Foreign Affairs; Baron Some, Min
ister Of Finance, and Baron Shibusawa
addressed the Iearing-House Association
to-day Baron Komura said that the
financial capability OF Japan had com
pletely surprised the world. He was glad
that Japan was showing a financial and
productive ability as well as strength on
the battlefield. The war, he said, would
last long and he trusted much in the
commercial ability OF the nation after
the war was ended when a greater pros
pect would be opened before the country
He expected, he said further that the
commercial interests would do their ut
most 10 develop and extend commerce
He expected the Introduction of foreign
capital. and he counseled his hearers to
facilitate this introduction by inspiring
foreign capitalists with confidence in the
country.
Baron Some thanked the financial and
commercial interests for their great as
sistance IN financing the war.
Baron Shibusawa said that the COM
merce and productive capacity OF the na-
ton was growing despite the war. The
bank clearings, he said, for 1904 exceed
ed two billion dollars. He expected that
the bank clearings for 1905 would exceed
two and half billion dollars.
