The killing and wounding OF Russian repre-
ssutatiyes in the dead of night in Teheran has
had the very worst effect on the temper OF the
Russian government. which has made the most
stringent representations 10 Persia for sattsfac-
tion for this last outrage. Coming so close TO
the killing of Captain DvoeglaZon and a num-
her of Russiar soldiers by Persian brigands
near the frontier at Belesuvar IN April, the al

THE CORNERS IN GRAIN.
Armour Boosts Wheat to 81 O9 81
Patten Still Forces Up Corn.
IRy Telegraph, to The Tribune

Chicago. May 2S-J. Ogden Armour to-day
showed May wheat up to 81 09S4, forced the clos
ing of many -four mills owing to the high price
and ended a spectacular day in the pit by fore
ing threat of shorts to default in settlements
with him.

declared that Armour had violated a distinct
rule of the board that grain may not be driven
to q price in excess of its worth. They prepared
matter thrown before the Board of Trade for
adjudication, make Armour take the matter
before the courts in settlement of claims
Armour is not only threatened with the de
falcations on May wheat, but he is said to be
facing heavy loss on cash wheat The prlce
has rea ched such a figure that the mlllers VIII
not buy Advices from all parts of the country
show that the small mills are closed everywhere
and that the large Minneapolis mills are work
ing only half time. The price of grain has
reached such a figure that 1t is Impossible 10

ternptins TO keep the price from reaching TOO
b,eb a hs7,re and was making adjustments with
all who wished in direct contrast TO the Armour
house. which refused to take any grain that was
not bought in the pit.
Private settlements were continued with Pat
ten in his corn line. Shorts realized that the
+ir,e had nassed for the delivery Of grain. and
that to attempt to buy in the market would
force the prices even higher than at present.

TO BACK THE TEAM.
Augusta Fans Organise to Support
Augusta Team.

An informal meeting of some of the
Augusta baseball enthusiasts was held
Thursday evening at the office of Pun
inton Bros. and it was the unanimous
sentiment that cordial support, finan-
cial aS we'll az otherwise, should be
given the team which Manager Nc
Donough has brought to the city and
which is making such a creditable rec
ord in the Maine League race. The cir
cumstances OF the coming of the team
to the city We're unusual, Lewiston
being abandoned on account of the
small crowds which turned out and
Augusta being selected by the league
managers in the hope that the inter-
est i'm this city would be better. The
results have justified the wisdom of
the change, for Augusta has taken
kindly to the team, good crowds are
witnessing the games and are being
rewarded by as fast and clean base
ball as was ever seen in Augusta.
Moreover. Manager McDonough and
each of his players are gentlemen who
have won the respect of all, off the
field as well as on it. They came here
all uniformed and ready for business
even bringing the bases for the dia-
mond..
AS to the financial end of the propo-
sition, 1t is impossible to support the
grade of baseball which Augusta is
getting on the gate receipts alone and
so the gathering last evening was to
organize a movement to give the team
a lift over rainy days and when the
management is in a tight place.
Charles F.. Bilodeau was chosen treas
urer and while no general appeal or
canvass will be made, it is hoped that
those interested in the sport will feel
like helping along the cause by calling
in to see him.
