GOOD MONEY FOR HAY MEN.
Kittitas Experts Estimate an Average
Crop for the Valley.

Prominent hay buyers state that
the Kittitas valley farmers will get
more money for their hay per ton
this year than last and that the in
come of the ranchers will be above
the average year. Various buyers es-
innate that the yield this year is a
good average crop, although slightly
below that of the record season, last
year. Prices, however, are ruling
considerably higher.
Few sales have been made this
season. Farmers are asking as high
as $1S per ton for first class timothy.
but the highest sale prices so far re-
ported have been SIG to $3.50 per
ton for the very best grade timothy

Advance New Claim.

Moreover the Indians advanced
something new. They claim, ana
their claim Is said to have sound
basis in fact that their treaty rights
give them half the water in the Yaki-
ma and other rivers contiguous to the
reservation. Therefore, when they
are asked to sell part of their holdings
for money with which to buy a water
right for the remainder they are being
asked to buy what is theirs already.

superior judgment of his white
brother. gently asks if there is not

ton at least open to debate?

TETON WATER NEXT SPRING
tract and Bids Have Already Been
Called for by Service.

There will he water on Unit One of
the Tieton next spring and the later
ais to distribute it will he built by con-
tract. The advertisements for bids for
building the laterals were issued yes
terday.
The authority for this is p. IL New
ell. chief of the United states Recla-
nation service, who came here yester-
day and spent the afternoon with Mr..
Swigart and consulted with w. II.
Code. chief engineer Of the Indian
bureau and c. II. Hauke chief clerk
of the Indian bureau over a new con-
tract the officials plan to induce the
noble red man to accept. The con-
tract will make the selling OF his lands
to get water right for the remainder
more palatable than it has seemed to
be TO him so far.
Teton Water in Spring.
But more important at present than
this Indian matter is the good word
that the Tieton. so far as Unit one il
concerned. will be finished on time
next spring as originally advertised.
This means that at the recent Port
land conference the Tieton was award
ed some money, at least enough to
finish one unit. Mr.. NcveT said
yesterday that he could say notGihg
about the future of the other units.
In regard to the Indian situation Mr..
Newell said that the failure of the In
dams to show willingness to sell
part of their lands for water right
for the remainder. was blocking the
Wapato project. He is consulting
with the Indian bureau men now In
regard to form CT contract which
will be acceptable to the Indians,
White Men Are Slow.
Both Indian officials and reclama-
ton men have discovered that many
white land owners show no inclina-
ton to cut their holdings to 40 acres
and buy water right for the 40
acres remaining. and the officials have
told these white owners that they
should at once petition Secretary Bal
linger that the Wapato project be
pushed, and state in their petition
their own willingness to do what the
Indian is being asked to do. The Of
hcials hold it useless to try to make
Roadway with the Indian, if the white
man cannot set him the example.
About the Kittitas Project.
As to the Kittitas project Mr.. New
ell had little to say. The work OF
surveying now going on in the upper
valley for this project win be com
pleted in the fail. 1t will cost about
$1,000, 600 as starter, and a canal so
miles long must be dug before the first
acre can be watered. The Kittitas
project may come some time. but Mr..
Newell did not give hope of anything
immediate.
1t Is evident that the Tieton has
come into an inheritance rs a result
OF the Portland conference but not
too much of one. The question of
the other units of this project remain
to be settled and depend on the
Humping lake dam which will take
both time and money

JULY WHEAT NOW
MAKING RECORDS
Advance Is Retained and Mar
Ret Closes Strong
REPORTS OF CROP DAMAGE
Lower temperatures In the Corn Belt
Cause Weakness, Which Later
Turns to Strenuth-oats and
Provisions Close firm.

Chicago, February 25.-Wheat for
July touched a new high record mark
for the season when 1t sold here today
at $t049s @1.O4h per bushel, over
touching byA a "a the previous record
established on December 4. Nearly all
the advance was retained, the market
closing strong with prices Is % lse
above yesterdays final quotations.
Corn, oats and provisions also closed
firm.
The July delivery again occupied the
center of the stage in the wheat pit,
and demand for that option was brisk
throughout the entire day.
Leaders in the bull campaign in May
were liberal purchasers of the summer
delivery and there was also a general
buying by commission houses. AT the
same time the May option was inclined
to drag on account of considerable sell
ing pressure by prominent cash inter
ests, who it was said had large guam
titles of cash grain coming here from
Omaha. Additional crop damage re-
ports were received, telling of injury
to the fall sown crop in Missouri and
Kansas by hessian fly and winter kill
ing" The market was also bullishly
affected by an estimate on the ship
ments from Argentine for the week
which predicted a shortage of nearly
100000 bushels compared with the
previous week. This factor. however,
was partially offset by a moderate de-
cline in the price of wheat at Liver
pool during the day, the July delivery
ranging between $1.O3 and $L04as %
1.04h and closed at $1.04h q 1.04as.
May closed at $1.169s.
Lower tempera lures in the corn belt
caused moderate weakness in the grain
market for that grain at the start. but
a strong tone soon developed, which
was maintained the balance of the ses
sion.
At the close prices were Il a sc to q
"a u higher than yesterdays close,
May being at 66b @66 NC and July at
$3.50.
Oats were firm on account of the
buying by commission houses and cash
interests. At the close prices were
Il q asc higher than yesterdays final
quotations. May closed at 54A @54Bc
and July at 49ss Q49%c.
Provisions were firm because of a
marked decrease in receipts of live
hogs at all western packing centers
last week a total arrival today of
little more than one-half those of last
week. The decrease caused an advance
of 10@15c in the price in live hogs
here. The market closed firm with
prices up 2Ac to 5000 compared with
the previous close

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter.

New York, February 25.--(Special.) -Liv-
erpool has been the disappointing market
today, closing lower than last evening
in face of a better tone here during the
opening hour than their advices called
for Slow liquidation on the part of this
side interests in March, May and July
was the feature of the morning, and it
was not until the afternoon that support
appeared from the buyers of yesterday
afternoon. Then several large orders alb
sorbed all of the offerings and carried
the new crop above last evening. Tend
ers are expected on March tomorrow and
as the market has had a sharp decline
the disposition is to look for a rally
abroad, with a cessation of the liquida-
ton in that delivery. New Orleans broke
badly at one time on the tenders. The
strength is due to the absence of rain in
Texas.
In the last hour a line of Marches were
bought against October sales, which led
the trade to expect small tenders and a
better market tomorrow.

New York, February 25.--The cotton

The market opened steady at an adj

ally unchanged to 9 points lower in re-
Spouse TO disappointing cables. Leading
interests seemed to be buying a little
more freely than of late. continued dry
weather in the southwest promoted
scattering investment demand for new
crop months, and the late positions were
also in demand by foreign houses for the
purpose of undoing straddles between
New York and Liverpool. Early offerings
were well absorbed, consequently, and
during the middle of the morning the ac.
tive months sold up to a net advance of
about 2 to points. But after the
close of Liverpool, buying orders became
smaller and during the middle session
there was a renewal of wall street liqui-
dation and local bear pressure, due to APP
prehensions regarding the effect of an I'M
settled stock market talk of March no.
tees tomorrow, and fears of spot cotton
decline of 3 to points, however.
the market again steadied on continued
support from leading spot houses, who
were buying May, July and October, and
last prices were several points up from
the lowest Sales for future delivery were
estimated at 225, 600 bales. Private reports
concerning spot market conditions were
somewhat conflicting, but beyond possible
offerings of hedged cotton here and there,
holders are said to be relatively steady.

renewed selling of stocks here for foreign
account was due largely to the tension
between Austria and Servia and the fears
that war is inevitable. There was report
ed some Frightening of the prospect for a
settlement during the day and a cessa-
ton of foreign selling was the result.
The condition of the steel trade remains
a source of grave uneasiness to the spec
ulauve movement, as much from lack of
understanding of the various develop
ments as from the direct harm threatened
by those developments. The determine
ton of the principal interest in the trade
to make its prices effective in securing
business, coupled with admissions of lack
of any important orders yet secured as
result of concessions already made,
showed that the ultimate basis of the set
tlement remains to be defined. After the
decline in stocks was decisively arrested
stocks fuctuated irregularly for the rest
Of the day.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $4,000, 900.

the big wooden companies has taken the
largest volume of orders for fall mems

of the smaller mills making all wool or
