LOWRECORDMARKS
Reached BY Wheat Yesterday owing
to News of Good Weather and
lncre ased Crops.

Chicago. Aug. WHEAT. Low
record marks for the season We're re-
corded for all deliveries of wheat in
the local market today Excellent wea
ther for harvesting the spring wheat
crop IN Minnesota. the Dakotas and
northwestern Canada was the primary
cause Of the weak market. Advices
from the northwest reported the new
wheat already on the way to Min
naapolis from sections where harvest
ing is completed. A minor reason for
the weak undertone was the decline
at liverpool which was due to i'm
proved weather in Great Britain. The
market opened easy local longs and
commission houses being moderate
sellers. As the trading progressed the
selling increased and the weakness
became more pronounced. Offerings
were taken largely by shorts. The
strength in corn had steadying effect
late in the session. The market closed
easy, September off 1$6Mc.
CORN-Tha market was rather
weak early because of the continuance
of excellent weather for the growing
crop. Late in the session the market
rallied sharply on covering by shorts
The close was strong, September mp
5s0&c.
OATS -The market displayed con
siderable weakness early but rallied
along with corn and closed steadily.
Selling by cash houses and northwest
ern interests was a feature Of the
early trading, Reports from the north

show a large yield and that the move
ment is practically increasing. Sep

ENORMOUS DEALS.
In Stocks Yesterday Followed Fri.
days Sensational Developments
and General List Advanced.

New York, Aug. 1S.-The stock
market continued today under the
electrifying influence of the increased
dividends of Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific, announced yesterday. The
large preponderance of the enormous
dealings We're In these two stocks, but
organized speculation shifted during
the day to Pennsylvania. Reading and
Amalgamated Copper. There We're
huge transactions in United States
Steel and these stocks show a large
proportion of the total sales for the
day, which ran at rate of activity
equal to the boom days of April, 1901.
Trading in the Pacifics was wild and
brokers in these stocks apparently
had orders to buy unlimited amounts
at prices asked by sellers. whatever
those might be.
The result was that opening in
Union Pacific all the way from 1Sl "
to 1886 The spread in Southern Pacific
was from 80. Yesterdays top price, to
81. 1t was a field day for the room
traders and operations were difficult
to follow, except to those on the floor.
Quick profit taking at frequent inter
walls by the room element kept the
prices huctuating constantly. But the
buying demand was kept reinforced
and the uplift of prices continued,
movement to take profits became most
pronounced after the appearance Ct
the bank statement. The loss of over
100000 in cash indicated a heavier
movement to the interior than had
been promised by the preliminary es-
Inmates of the banks themselves. In
spite of scaling down of loans Of over
S., 600. 900 which served to relieve the
reserve requirements the surplus was
cut into 10 the extent of 81, 171,025
The movement of currency to the in
terror will not be expected to fall Off
and the speculative activity of the
stock market which sprang up yester-
day must make additional require
ments on the credits of the banks. The
active demand continued undimin-

LAW PUZZLES RAILROAD MEN
Passenger Officials Are Up in the All
on Excursion Tickets.

Railroad men are yet undecided as to
whether excursion tickets can be sold
under the new railroad rate law. Twin
city men seem to differ with the Chi
cago authorities. A local official pointed
out that portion of section % Of the
Interstate commerce law, passed in 1887,
and as amended March 2, 1889, and
Feb. 8, 1895, has this provisions: emo
provision in this act shall prevent
- y y the issuance Of mileage or
communication passenger tickets. It is
asserted by local officials that there is
nothing in the Hepburn law which an
nuls the provisions regarding excursion
tickets. p. 49,
81 do not think it is discrimination
for a railroad to issue excursion tick
ets,'' he said. cit is no more so than
when a clothing merchant one day sells
q suit for $15, and on the next day for
$40. Perhaps one might say that the
one who bought the suit for $l5 was
Disseminated against.
"The issuance Of excursion tickets
cannot be called discrimination, because
on certain days the tickets are offered
for sale to the public In general. If
one wanted to carry out the discimina-
tion idea to an abnormal extent, one
might say that no rate could be changed
because the patron who bought ticket
at higher rate last year is being dis
eliminated against when another man
this year buys a ticket at a lower
rate.O ~.|e ~t-". ... .H> F..

Railroads
STEAM MOTORS COMING
GREAT NORTHERN OFFICIAL.
SEES PROMISE OF GREAT UT11.-
Try IN NEW CARS.

Max Toltz, consulting engineer Of
the Great Northern road, practically
verifies The Journal story to the
effect that the steam motor car will be
used in the Lake Minnetonka traffic
to put the line on competing basis
with the electric line Of the street rail
way company.
One of the railroads in England, says
Mr.. Tlotz, was worsted by an electric
line built parallel to one Of the branch
lines. The railroad earnings dwindled.
while the electric line cnioyed a fne
revenue. Finally the railroad company
decided to put on steam motor cars,
operating them at the same speed and
intervals as the electric cars. The rail
road company regained it's earnings and
increased it's revenue, while the electric
line enjoyed q similar prosperity.
1t is the belief Of Mr.. Toitz that the
oftener trains run, the greater the trav-
Ell. His opinion Is gained from expert
service was established along a branch
line. cars running three to four hours
apart. Three times the number Of peo-
pie travelled as before. The net earn
ings increased, the cost of operation
being reduced one-half to e-third.
The population along the line also in
creased because Of better transporta-
tion facilities.
Steam motor cars afford better trans
portation facilities for passengers, Civ
Ing moro frequent service, and are
cheaper to operate at the same time,
Mr.. Toltz said yesterday. He believed
that they will be put extensively in
service for the transportation Of pas
seneers on suburban and branch lines.
The superiority Of the steam motor
car over the gasolene car lies in less
cost Of operation and greater reliability.
A gasolene car on a railroad can be no
more depended on than an automobile
supplied with the same material.

MAY THROW RATE
CASE INTO COURT
LAWYER AssAILs
RAILROAD TESTIMONY.
Mammalian Demands that Records Of Mil
waukee and Great Northern Roads,
with Original Sources Of Figures, Be
Produced Before the State Railroad
Commission.

The hearing on merchandise rates be-
fore the state railroad and warehouse
commission may be carried into the
courts and the matter be prolonged m
indefinite time thru litigations.
The threat to take the case into the
courts was made yesterday afternoon
BY James MIanahan, attorney for tn the
trouble same to head when E. D. Sew
all, assistant to the president Of the
Milwaukee road and former president
of the Minnesota Transfer company,
was the witness. Mr.. Manahan asked
if the figures Mr.. Sewall had given the
commission at previous hearing re-
garding coal used on the Hastings &
Dakota division of the Milwaukee road
had been verified by himself. Mr.. Sew
all replied that he had taken the figures
from the records, but that it would be
an impossibility for him to verify them
personally from their original sources.
The figures, he explained, we're made up
by men at different points along the
road, men who would have no object
in returning incorrect statements. Mr..
Manahan declared that, as the figures
had not been verified by the witness
giving them, it was altogether possible
He asked Mr.. sewall If, as represen-
tative Of the Minnesota Shippers ASSOC
citation, he might be permitted to exam
inc the books. Mr.. Sewall replied that
the books were at all times open to the
commission. " .t...s. ...ss-r
Mr.. Manahan then asked the COM
mission for an order permitting him to
examine the books Of both The Mil
waukee and Great Northern roads, as
serting that unless the opposing counsel
were allowed to examine the source Of
the, railroad testimony, such testimony
would not hold good In court. He as
| serted that If all the figures were to
be valid, all the men engaged in COM
piling them, and all the records from
which they were compiled, should be
produced at the hearing. He contended
| that unless this was done when de-
manded, anything done by the commits
| sion would be invalid.
G. A. Severance, attorney for the rail
roads, objected. He pointed out that
at the beginning Of the hearing that the
figures the roads proposed to submit
ords and would be produced If required,
but that no demand was made for them
at that time. @>
The question proved to be something
Of a ',|sticker" for the railroad com
mission. The commissioners consulted
for, while, then adjourned the hearing
until today to hold an executive ses-
sion. Edward T. Young, attorney gen
eral, was sent for, but was not In The
building. George r. Simpson and Royal
A. Stone, assistant attorney general,
went into the conference, which lasted
nearly all the afternoon. It was an
nounced that the commission would give
ruling on the point today. 49,
