blasphemous fad whose life is

selling impure goods as all grocers

was a gang II hurrying workmen
at "Macgly Junction" where the
Northern Pacific recently made a
grade for the q. X. a. N tc follow.
December "a the o. X. 81 ".
enjoined the Northern Pacific from
crossing the Maegly tract--but the
next day A. H. Maegly sold the
strip to the Northern PacifiC
Then that road proceeded to get
busy. I, established a grade and
built bout 100 feet Of trestle.
Tuesday evening the o. X. * y.
put hundred and fifty men in the
field TO destroy the grade, burn the
trestle, and create new grade of
its own-much lower than that Of
the Northern Pacific
The gang worked till about four
o'clock by which time a restraining
order had been issued by Judge
Frazer. The fight is not yet closed.
LATER A visit to the scene of
the proceedings shows that some of
the tales told are wholly imaginary.
The toy trestle destroyed was not
burned-merely torn down and the
timbers and small rails laid to one
side Onel section of the trestle
still stands like a gaunt spectre.
The track laid by the o. K. *
n. is Of standard guage and in a
shape for travel. Over, above and
covering the track are two tents
apparently put there to stay.
About the place are many work
men-some making stakes, others
cutting firewood, and a few doing
the heavy sitting round.

CHICAGO MARKETS
A. w. THoMPSoN's GRAIN MAR
kET LETTER GIVING ENcoUR-
AcEMENT TO SITUATION.
Publishers Press1

Chicago, H., April ia. w. Thorn
as, in his grain letter today, says:
Wheat-We asked you to look for a
good. big trading market in wheat,
with a leaning to the buying side.
The influences today combined to de-
velop a big bull market with the
sharpest upturn in prices recorded in
many months. Several things COM
bined to bring about this strong
turn. The Eastern holders of May
wheat are standning by whatever lines
firm and higher. There was some
buying of wheat futures in this mar
ket for foreign account.
There is a hint of damage in
Western Nebraska, but it is q little
premature. The Argentine ship
ments were so light as to create bull
sentiment abroad and here. The foun-
dation for the present speculative bull
market in wheat is the strength in the
cash property in all leading markets.
At Mime apolis the mills bid &c over
May for No 1 Northern to arrive.
The Market Record reviewed spring
wheat supplies and declares that
there is no burdensome surplus.
Kansas City cash houses claim that
there is little No hard wheat to
spare for shipment or export, because
of milling demands. Think conser-
vative position is to secure profits on
long wheat on turn of this kind. On
good reaction the absence of import
ant May liquidation would again favor
the buying side.
Corn-There was a strong corn mar
ket for the morning with &c advance
in the May and about 1ac for the 9TH
ers. The higher prices brought out
some free selling, and especially for
July, by elevator people. There was
profit-taking on speculative lines for
all months, The cash market was a
0Bc higher. Peoria and South
west markets also reported 1ac to 1c
advance in cash corn prices, and sup
plies scarce. Shorts active as buy
ers, on the advance. The bear fore
es are very cautious about selling
corn short, even at their prices. Cooler
weather predicted, and wet. Some
reaction may be due from this adj
vance. but with stocks decreasing cash
and export demand good, country hold
ing reserves very firmly, think it still
a bull situation.
Oats.-The oats trade made less
Roadway in advancing prices than re-
corded in the other markets. There
was most excellent buying of July
oats.
