YEARS in The Pen
FoRcER ENTERS PLEA OF Gull.
TY IN DISTRICT COURT AND
GETS THE LIMIT ~ VIM. CANS
GETS THREE YEARS FOR PETTY
BURGLARY.
SENTENCES.
Irving Tilden, forgery, FIVE years.
VIM. Cans, colored, burglary,
three years.

After pleas of guilty had been enter
ed in the district court this afternoon
by Tilden and Cans, the above SEN
fences were imposed by Judge Chas.
A. Pollock in the district court.
Tilden pleaded to the formal charge
of forgery Of a note for $1,000. The
little courtroom scene was the climax
of frenzied whirl in the financial
world by TiIden in which he succeeded
in raising, it is estimated $4,000, Of
forged paper, Fargo banks being among
the main institutions that he dealt
with. On his exit to the state peni-
tertiary, Tilden leaves a deficit of be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 on the ledger.
The surprise came when VIM. Cans,
colored, who broke into the Bestic
residence and stole about $25 worth of
tools, was sentenced to three years in
the state penitentiary. 1t is claimed
that the colored gent turned white
when he heard the sentence, expecting

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Wheat shows Strength.

Chicago. Nov. 26.-Wkeat: Wheat
made a little show OF strength early
on strong news from abroad, but has
broken since. December has been
vastly weaker than the May, and mas
in fact been the important feature
in the market. Several large longs
have sold more or less December to-
day. partly continuation OF sales early
in the week, and have forced stop
loss selling by many smaller holders.
In the meantime May wheat, which
has been at an unnatural discount
from December prices mas declined
only moderately. Liverpool strength
was on decreasing stocks there on
firmness of Manitoba and Argentine
spot wheat and on claims OF weather
damage present and prospective In
Argentine.
Later cables, however, reported the
weather improving in Argentine ana
the boards closing Buenos Ayres cable
quoted wheat % to " lower. North
western exporters have reported good
business today in Manitobas and dur
um wheat which reflects the scarcity
OF supplies in English ports. The
weeks export clearances u. 5. ana
Canada were 4,3O0O 600 bushels, as COM
pared with 61S6,OO0 bushels the pre-
vious week and 4,s96,000 a year ago.
worlds shipments promise 11,5OO'OOo
bushels this week against 12,S32,OOO
bushels last week and 7,852,000 bushels
a year ago. Local cash sales 10000
bushels. The market actions today is
no less puzzling that it has been.
The reaction Of y cents in the May
from the weakness on the December
selling was quite unexpected and up
set the crowds expectation of lower
closing. From anything though, that
we can see, market seems to be in
position to respond to bear better than
bull news and that the May should be
sold on the bulges like today.

STORM GAVEMANY WORK
Some Idea of Value of Recent Snow
storm to the Unemployed shown
When NJ. p. Laid Off 200.

The recent snow was certainly a
benefit to a large number of men in
this part of the country, and there are
some of them, who are otherwise I'M
employed, praying for another vista
ton Of the sparkling white.
AS an evidence of the number of
people the snowsrorm gave employ
ment ii is interesting to note that to-
day the Northern Pacific railroad laid
off snow gangs numbering something
over 200 men. These gangs have been
constantly at work since the snow fell
and drew pretty good wages for the
time. 1t is evident that 1t is indeed
an i'll wind that blows nobody good.
