Pierre dispatch, 20: The secretary
ct state has received limited number
Of advance copies of the laws Of the
last session for distri button to state
officials. The new laws are now being
gone over to find what they mean and
what bearing they may nave on old
statutes. The chances are that several
Of the laws which are included in the
printed statutes will be submitted t.
the referendum along with the divorce
law, and they will be suspended in their
effect. The courts of the state will be
kept busy for time in meeting the
requirements Of the new laws which
wipbe sprung upon them by the attor-
neys who will use them in cases where
thsy can make them count for their
clients.

WHEAT PIT.
Chicago Commission Men Grow
Rich in Wheat Specula-
ton.

Chicago. May 2O.-The past wees
with its "dollar wheat" has been an
historic one in the history of Chicago
board of trade. While statistics on the
quantity of wheat which changed hands
are not obtainable, the assertions OF
veteran traders that the volume OF
business was of unprecedented pro-
portions may be safely accepted.
There have been many wild sessions in
the wheat pit before. notably when
corners were being run, when prices
fiuctnated more violently, when small
cliques made or lost-mostly lost-im-
posing fortunes, but never before has
there been broader or better sustained
market.
Never before have grain brokers
done larger business. For more than
a week when the rest of the city was
asleep the lights in their Offices were
ablaze. where heavy eyed clerks
worked into the small hours trying to
keep track of the business done. Hard
ly house in town has sufficient force
of clerks in the pit to fill the orders
which are pouring in from Maine t6
California Nor are there enough
wires to handle the mass of daily bust
ness. The inevitable, therefore, has
happened, and only the larger orders
are considered. In the language of the
pit, "It is no market for piker.
Crop reports, private and public; the
solemn verdicts of experts" statistics,
official and unofficial; crop estimates
and the enticing literature Of the com.
mission houses which are growing rich
on commissions alone, vary noticably
in detail, put they are practically
united in the statement "that the
world cannot grow this year all the
wheat it needs.
Minor items, such as "green bug
damages and the like, have been made
much Of, but the weather is the all in
fuential factor. Spring has been SC
late that the whole country mas OBJ
served it and bought wheat.

Thrifty Soldiers.

The American soldier Is not highly

year 54.266 enlisted men saved and de-
posted with the paymasters depart
ment 81, ,495, ,22s. This is a very re-
spectacle sum and represents about II
per cent OF the total pay Of all the en-
listed men for that period. Had every
enlisted man made deposit the aver
age saving for the year would have
been S2T 80. but that is the least inter-
esting feature Of the system.
The figures show that the soldier can
deposit. under the law Of 1872. only
sums Of So and over AS the pay is
small. the total deposits for the year
show that the saving habit Is continu-
