FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONDITIONs.-C. schu-
macher G. Co. say: The easier money conditions
which caused sharp advance in exchange the lat
ter part OF last week caused our foreign exchanges
market TO sell as high as 4s520 Monday OF this
week This followed by a temporary reaction,
perfectly natural, caused more by renewed
agitation in call money rates than anything else.
and after exchange again declined 10 4s4iz II has
again resumed It's upward trend. and is selling az
the present moment at 4s4s5. We believe that the
future prospects for higher exchange are very
bright and that toward the latter part OF next
week a very steady rising trend may be expected
The market however. Is likely 20 be a little unset
tied next week owing TO the bad mailing facilites
but with the smaller supply OF cotton bills rom
the South we feel sure that our exchanges market
will advance considerably in the near future

STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

A cheerful tone prevailed in the stock market
yesterday, the expectation OF a favorable bank
sta atement operating to encourage early buying
for both accounts and the excellent showing
made by the statement, toward the close of the
short session. giving ground for the belief that
money market stress was ended for the present.
London prices came in a little lower. but the
fact was without influence on the opening prices
here. which were a trife above Fridays last
figures. ST. Paul the market leader in
activity and was exceeded in point Of net i'm
provement by only two or three other issues.
with it's gain of IL points. Canadian Pacific
advanced sharply, the shorts covering on official
denial from Montreal Of the rumor of a new
stock issue. Southern Pacific closed the day
21a points up. Chicago G. Northwestern gained
211. and Union Pacific 1H, the rally which
brought these and other stocks TO their high
level at the close coming in the last few min
utes. There had been a moderate recession at
the beginning of the second hour on profit
taking. but the losses were soon recovered. There
was little price movement Immediately following
the issuance OF the bank statement the market
having pretty well discounted the improvement
In the bankC' position and operators realizing
that. although money was moving to this
in volume, requirements OF large corporations
would prevent for some time to come the estab-
lishment OF actual ease in money conditions.
The late uplift of prices was on the better pros
pect for the next few days. and the probability
is that the advance may go a little further this
week, but the basis for a bull movement of i'm
portsnce does not yet exist
The bank statement followed rather closely
the preliminary estimates Cash increased S1O,-
57s 500 and deposits $s.344, 100. while loans
decreased only Ss5S. 600. considerably less than
had been expected. AS result of the changes
in the cash and deposit items. the surplus
serve increased IS. .492. .S75. standing at S.
$40 100. against s147. 1926 a week ago. The
plus the corresponding day last year was

A. DeLacy Wood, of Beaver Bay,
who holds the worlds champion
shi p record for having started the
greatest number of newspapers of
any one man since the time Guten-
berg discovered how to malign the
name of municipal CRATER by the
use of movable types, dropped in
on US Monday, afternoon and in an
hours converse recalled several
score or such matter of papers he
had started in the past decade.
Our first acquaintance with A. De
Lacy was twenty years ago this TALL
when he became business compet-
itor through launching the Besse-
mer World, at Bessemer, Mich, but
his record antedates that time by
several years. Since then, however,
he has founded and foundered not
less than two score country papers.
At the present time he runs a paper
at Beaver Bay, over in Cook county,
and arranges for the launching of
another at Millen Lake, the present
terminus of the Duluth & North
eastern railway. His trip to this
section was also for the purpose of
looking for new worlds to conquer,
and the Rainier Senate, the Angora
Wildcat and the Wolf Bounty are
included in the list of euphonius
names selected for several of his
prospective progenies:

Monday morning for pastures new
after week of hilarious prosperity
at the expense of Virginia citizens.
Saturday night was duly celebrat-

week by some who knew no better
and by some who should know bet

were having "sport" at the expense
OF the populace.

Given q Chilly Receptioo.

John Kolu, representing himself
to be resident of this city, was
billed to deliver an address to the
laboringmen in the Crystal Falls
district a week ago, but after a
cordial request from the business
men of the city to desist from his
agitator intentions consented to
pass up his opportunity of becom-
ing famous. Later in the evening
the business men and others in the
city organized and by unanimous
vote adopted set of resolutions
and presented a copy of same to
Mr.. Kolu, stating in very plain
English that his presence in the
city was considered detrimental
alike to the best interests of the
working classes and the business
men and requesting him to leave
the city on the first train. He did

sisting in the search for the body
of Harrington, whose remains were
recovered from beneath the coal
heap at midnight. The body of
Wellman was recovered shortly af-
ter the wreck and removed to the
Mesberg morgue.
Wellnan was married man, liv-

street, and to the bride of a few
months is extended the sympathy
of all in her sad bereavement. The
remains we're on Tuesday taken to
the former home of the deceased at
Mitchell, S. D., for interment, the
bereaved widow being accom- panied
on her sad journey by members of
the local railway organizations and
other friends.
The remains of Harrington we're
shipped the same day to the home
of his parents at Osceola, Mich, be-
ing accompanied on their last Jour
ney by Conductor H. L. Chase and
Louis Clarey, of the Duluth, Rainy

TWO KILLED IN SUNDAY WRECK
Conductor Welan and Brakeman Harrington Crushed Be-
meath an Overturned Great Northern Switch Engine.

Two men killed and one badly in.
jured was the result of a wreck on
the Great Northern, caused by
broken rail, on Sunday afternoon
last. The engine, striking the de-
fective rail, jumped the. track and
rolled down fifteen foot embank-
ment, at point mile west of this
city, catching c. P. Wellman, con
ductor, and Dennis Harrington, a
brakeman, and crushing them be-
meath the debris, while Tim Har-
rington, another brakeman and a
brother of the one killed, was thrown
considerable distance from the
track and sustained severe injuries
in his fall. Engineer Hunt and
Fireman Chase both escaped from
the fated engine with scarce a
scratch.
The crew in charge of engine No.
800 had started for the Wacootah
mine to do some switching, follow
ing loaded ore train, and it is sup
posed the rail was broken in the
passage of this train but a few min
utes previously.
News of the wreck created consid-
erable excitement in the city, sever
