SALES ARE PRINCIPALLY CON
FINED TO SCATTERING WANTS
OF THE MlLLERS
Outlook for Wheat Crop of Washing
ton Declared to Be the Best
Ever Recorded

The local wheat market mas decelop-
ed nothing of interest during the past
week. Sales are confined to scatter
ing wants of the millers, and at this
time these are not of a pressing char
acter. There has been no outside bus
mess to give tone to the situation and
the easing off of speculative and for
eign markets have not tended to slim
ulate matters, says the West Coast
Trade.
Buyers are offering about the same
range of prices as about a week ago,
bluestem being quoted at goo, with
club at Sic, but present offerings of
red wheat are Of q quality that has
caused a lowering of the market to
soc for that variety. Present prices
are about &c above what wheat would
be worth for export and as that ap-
pears to be about the nearest source
of large demands, there are no pros
poets for better figures, unless unex-
pected developments occur between
this time and the new crop offerings.
In the general situation, an unex-
pectedly large increase in the worlds
shipments last week, with the i'm
provement in the crop outlook in the
southwest, where harvest has COM
menced, produced a decline in prices,
after rally the latter part of last
week.
Abroad the crop outlook is repot ted
as favorable on the whole. Recent
rains have relieved the drought in the
south of Russia, and the general Sit
uation is good. In India, however, re-
ports from the principal wheat produc-
ing province shows a crop officially es-
timated at 591O4,OOO bushels, against
98,320,000 bushels last year.
At this time the outlook for the
wheat crop in Washington is the best
ever recorded. There has been fur
Their rains, and indeed, the greatest
drawback to the situation at present
is the possibility Of damage to the
growing grain, should hot, dry winds
succeed, because it has had too much
moisture. The wheat has not the
power of resistance that it would have
if more sunshine had prevailed dur
ing the past couple of weeks. The
growth, however, is rank, and fall
wheat is getting along we'll to the
point where the yield is assured.

FERGUS CASE DISMISSED.
Merits Of Case Not Considered by Su

preme Court.
Helena, July 12.-The appeals in
the case of George Pirrie against p.
I. Moule ct al, were dismissed by
the supreme court today in an opin-
ion prepared by Chief Justice Brantly.
The action, which was one to obtain
a decree quieting the plaintiffs title
to the use of certain OF the waters
of Swimming Woman creek, in Fer
gus county was removed to the SUI
preme court by the defendant from an
order denying a new trial, and also
from special order after judgment
overruling and denying the exceptions
filed by the defendant to the findings
of fact and conclusion of laws made
by the court. At the hearing on the
merits a motion was submitted ask
ing that the appeals be dismissed on
the ground, among others, that the
undertaking on appeal is void for am
biguity, and hence that this court has
no jurisdiction; for that, whereas
there are three appeals, the undertake.
ing is in the sum of $500 only, and it
is impossible to determine from the
recitals therein to which appeal it re.
fers. The opinion holds for the rea.
sons advanced that the motion must
be sustained, and the appeals accord.

DECISION ON DIPPING.
State Laws Must Not Conflict With
Those of Congress.

Those Of Congress.
Helena, July 12.-1n response to
letter from State Veterinarian NJ. E.
Knowles, Attorney General Albert j.
Galen today rendered an opinion on
the subject of conflict between ma
tional and state laws in the matter
of dipping sheep afflicted with scabies,
in which it is held that the rules and
regulations of the agricultural depart.
ment are supreme and that the state
has no right to pass laws in conflict
with those of congress.
"In other words" says the opinion,
"the dipping of such sheep by fed
eral inspectors prior to their shipment
or Immediately after their arrival,
when they are shipped from clean ter
ritory and exposed in transit, has the
effect of removing from the consider
alton of the state inspectors the fact
that such sheep were shipped from
another state or territory, but as the
| regulations of the secretary of agri-
| culture make no provision for brand
ing or quarantining of such diseased
or exposed sheep for a period long
enough to determine if the dipping
has been effective, therefore the state
inspector would have authority to i'm
mediately establish quarantine of such
sheep and have, them branded with
the letter s. as provided by the state
law, and if during quarantine or at
any time thereafter it should develop
that the sheep were still diseased. then
the state inspector could proceed with
further clippings and fuzzy enforce the
provisions of the state law against
such sheep, the same as he could
against sheep raised in this state,
among which disease was found, or
which had become exposed to scabies. "

one of the petitioners drew revolv-
er and fired three times at the pre-

arrested.
The assassin, who was dressed as
peasant, has not been identified.

room of the prefecture until the other
petitioners had been received and
then entered the auditorium room.
He advanced toward Count Shouvaloff
hiring five shots at close range. The
bullets passed through the body of
the project.
A great crowd gathered in front of
the house of Count Shouvaloff and
made demonstration to show its in.
dignation and sorrow at the assassina-
ton of the project, who was very
popular.

Drummer Is ACQUITTED.
The Jury Finds That He Did Not Beat
His Wife.

Maynard Drummer, carpenter, was
tried in Justice of the Peace w. T.
McF'arland's court Wednesday after
noon on the charge of beating his
wife. Roy E. Ayers conducted the
prosecution. the defendant having no
attorney. He demanded jury trial,
and the testimony given was very con-
fiicting. Mrs. Drummer stated that one
evening last week when her husband
came home from work, he became
very angry because there was no meal
prepared, and a quarrel followed, dur
ing which the defendant took her by
the throat and handled her very
roughly. She was corroborated in
some details by her daughter, step
daughter of the defendant
When Drummer went on the stand,
he made plain, Straightforward
statement. He said that these fam
lily jars were of frequent occurrence
in his home, and insisted that he had
done nothing in this particular in
stance except to hold his wife when
she tried to scratch him, although he
admitted that he pushed her against
the wall. He said that while his wife
was screaming in such way as to
arouse the neighborhood, he was not
misusing her at all. MIR. Drummer of.
fered in evidence his nose, which was
scratched by his wife.
The conflict in the testimony was
such that the jurors could not make
out which party was the aggressor
and they finally took the view that i,
| was an unfortunate family jar such
as have been altogether too frequent
| in the Drummer household. There was
nothing in the appearance of Mrs
| Drummer to indicate that she had been
maltreated in any way. while the hus
band certainly did have a few mark:
of the conflict. The jury brought il
verdict of not guilty, and the de
| PENDANT was discharged.
