Trying to Increase the Supply.
The downward trend of the lobster
fishery had up to year or two ago
been apparently un.nfiuenced py the
annual planting Of large numbers OF
lobster fry: but there is now consid-
cradle evidence that the increasing
output OF the hatcheries Is bearing
fruit.
Fishermen are reporting more un-
dersized Holsters than they have seen
In many years, says the National Geo
graphic Magazine, and in various
places where fishing had been aban-
doned because II did not pay the fish,
ermen are now making good catches.
1t Is difficult to understand how the
annual planting of the progeny - TO-
900 to 10000 Holsters can fail to In .

No. | Northern Breaks Record
for Season in Minneapolis;
Opti0nals Decline.
CAUSED BY MIlltRy DEMAND
Conservatives Now Admit That CrOp Is
Damaged by Confirmation
of Reports.

Minneapolis, Aug. 8.-Another rec
ord for the season was broken on the
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce
exchange yesterday, when a bid was
placed for No. 1 Northern wheat at
$1.25. 1t was the cash wheat market
which developed a bu1lish fever yes
terday, while option wheat declined.
The market started out quietly, with
cash wheat at $1.21, but before the
sounding of the gong $1.25 had been
hidden. The strong demand from the
millers for this class of grain was re-
sponsible for the jump, which was not
wholly unexpected by some traders.
Offerings were TOO small to meet even
the restricted demand of the mills.
Only thirty-three cars out of a total
movement of 1872 cars were spring
wheat.
Conservatives Admit Damage.
September wheat, which Wednes-
day closed at $1.07, the highest price
of the season, fell yesterday to
$1.05 3-8. 1t was evident on the
change that the radicals had over
worked their reports of crop damage
and rested for further news Conserv-
alive elements are ready to admit that
the crops have been deteriorated in
the Dakotas and parts of Minnesota.
The Northwestern Miller reports
that black rust has done damage to
late-sown wheat. How much damage
has been sustained it does not at
tempt to estimate though it states that
the crop area will be somewhat spot
ted. The Miller is conservative jour
nal, and in summing up 1t admits that
the wheat crop in the Northwest has
been impaired in the last week or ten
days, though it does expect a moder-
ate yield, with milling quality much
above that Of 1907.

MILLS IN HANDS
OF RECEIVERS
Pillsbury-W ashburn Company
OF Minneapolis Is Finan-
cially Embarrassed.
TROUBLE IS ONLY TEMPORARY

Minneapolis, Aug. II. The Pills
bury-Washburn Flour Mill company,
limited. Minneapolis, the largest -four
milling company in the world, Satur-
day made application for the appoint
ment of receivers. The financial sym
barrassments are admitted by the
company, although it is denied that
the company is insolvent.
The petition for the appointment of
receivers was granted by United
States Judge Milton d. Purdy, and A.
c. Loring, A. C. Cobb and Charles s.
Pillsbury were appointed receivers.
The company's mills will not cease
operations, and, pending the receiver
ship, which, 1t is expected, will be
temporary, the business will be contin-
ued Other companies, all subsidiary
to the Pittsburgh ashburn company.
included in the receivership are the
Minneapolis and Northern Elevator
company, with 100 elevators along the
Great Northern railway lines; the
Minneapolis Milling company and the
Minneapolis Power company. No
concerns other than these are affected
Henry R. Little has been the general
manager of the company.
Minneapolis and st. Paul banks and
John S. Pillsbury, heavy stakeholder
in the company, petitioned the court
through an attorney, for the appoint
ment. of the receivers and the issu-
ance of restraining injunction on the
continuance of the business under the
former management
The indebtedness of the company
amounts to about $9,00O,00o, and the
deficiency between the assets and the
liabilities is said to be $1,500,000.
In the complaint filed with the court
a criticism is made of the manner in
which the business has been conduct
ed in the last few years. The com
pany's present financial embarrass-
ment is stated as due to extravagant
management.
No admission of insolvency is made,
and it was stated that any action for
the purpose of showing the company
to be insolvent would be stoutly OPP
posed by the company, but the defend.
ant, through its attorney, Clark Hemp
stead, united with the compliments in
praying for the appointment of re-
ceivers.

WRIGHT FLIES LIKE BIG BIRD.
Ohio Aeronaut Astonishes French Peo-
Gle With His AeropIane.

Lemans, France, Aug. H. - Wilbur
Wright of Dayton, Ohio, made a spec
tacular flight of three and one-half
kilometers (2.17 miles) in his aero
plane here. From the time Wright left
the ground he was in perfect control
of the machine, and without any mis-
hap made the distance'in one minute
and forty-six seconds.
Several thousand spectators were
present when Wright made his fight.
No attempt was made to create a new
record, the only object of the flight be-
ing 70 test the aeroplane. Wright
proved beyond doubt that he is the
master of his birdlike machine, COM
plotting two circles ard rising and de-
scending at will. He came down to
earth without any damage to his aero
plane.
Wright was warmly congratulated
by the spectators. A number of for
eign aeronauts were present They
judged Wright's performance as the
most wonderful demonstration OF
aerial navigation they had ever wit
messed.

How a Cat Caught Two Rats.

I once had cat who did rather
remarkable feat He stalked two
young rats on the caves of low nat
stable roof. and caught one in the
usual way. The other jumped on to
elderberry tree just below.
Bob, however. not satisfied with the
one, grasped it firmly in his mouth,
and then jumped headlong for the
other. Either he was very lucky or
extraordinary agile, for he fell to the
ground with one rat still in his mouth
and the other in his paws, and prompt
ly killed them both.
