Grain Opinions,

Bartlett Patton & Co: The wheat
crop Is not yet made and we still
prefer the long side at this level of
values, with clearing seasonal BILE
weather we look for corn prices to
gradually work lower.
Finley Darrell & Co; Despite our
recent material decline in wheat
values we can see noting in the
situation to warrant any permanent
improvement in values. The 5savy
covering by shorts today has placed
the market technically in a weaker
position than ever. Until the cash
corn situation shows Improvement we
can see little hopes of any permanent
rally in futures.
S. b. Chaplin & Co: All competing
countries are under selling US and we
believe there is no salvation for the
wheat bulls until prices get much
closer to an export basis. We believe
corn will have to go to lower basis as
sconsumptive requirements are less
than a year ago, write supplies are
much larger.
Logan & Bryan: The futher decline
in wheat prices for all months has
not created any more friendly feeling
for the buying side of the market.
Serious complaints continue to come
from portions of the winter wheat belt
but they count for nothing at present.

HITS
A Big STURGEON

Duluth, Mimi, May 2O-This is a
true fish story.
When Frank III. Wade and a party
of friends were running up the st.
Louis river on Friday evening last in
the launch, Gee Whiz," the boat
struck and stunned a large sturgeon,
which was taken alive by the occu-
pants of the craft. 1t was afterwards
killed and Saturday evening a stur-
geon supper was served at the Jacoby
cottage at Fond du Lac.
The fish weighed 261a pounds and
measured 43h inches in length. 1t was
hit by the propeller of the launch and
knocked senseless, floating along be-
side the boat. The collision with the
sturgeon had stopped the engine and
had badly bent the propeller The fish
was taken aboard and soon afterwards
it revived
Arthur Jacoby, ane of the occu-
pants of the Gee Whiz" found it
necessary to kill the fish and he used
wrench lying in the boat for this
purpose. The fish was taken to the
Jacoby camp, where it was measured
and weighed. A half days work was
required to stTaighten out the pro-
Deller OF the boat.
Those who were in the boat at the
time were #. HI. Wade, Arthur Jaco-
by, Mrs. Henry Colgraff and two chill
dren and Mrs. M Jacoby, all of West
Duluth. The affair happened only a
short distance from the Jacoby camp.
The occupants of the boat say that
they will vouch for the accuracy of
the story

6. N. GETTING
into The GAME
PURCHASE OF CITY PROPERTY
AT MINoT INDICATES TT WILL
BE ACTIVE.

Minot, N. D., May 24.-The purchase
by the Great Northern Railway Co. OF
considerable bunch of real estate in
the eastern part OF the city and the
TACT that Ii is daily securing options
on more is taken to be an indication
OF the fact that the road has awakened
from its Rip Van Wrinkle sleep and so
far as this city is concerned IL is going
to make a campaign for the freight
business. At least it is going to be
prepared in the future to go after this
business much better than 1t has been
in the past.
There has always been lively
scrap between the two railroads at
TINS point for the freight business of
Minot. The 500 has been getting its
share and occasionally it has hit the
ball over the fence for several home
runs on the Great Northern. Recent
~ the Great Northern has made a hit
or two off the Soo's delivery as well
and the whole situation at the present
time is one that local business men
keenly relish.
Tnere have been a number of stories
concerning the Great Northern's ac-
cession of property. One is to the
effect that 1t is for the purpose ~
moving the shops here from Devils
Lake. However, this may be, IL is
safe to say that there is nothing in
the rumor so far as the Immediate az
near future is concerned.
II is regarded as much more prob
able that the Great Northern's access
sion Of local property means that If ID
going to prepare itself for the future
when industrial trackage facilities In
the section of the city where IL is buy
Ing land will be of value in getting
the freight business from Minot,
There is no doubt of the fact that
the road Is acquiring local propertv

RESERVE OPENING
SPURS The ROADS
DOZEN RAILWAY SURVEYING
PARTIES AT WORK IN NORTH.
WESTERN NORTH
DAKOTA.

Schafer, N. D., May IA dozen
railroad survey parties are in the fed
in that part of northwestern North Da-
kota lying between the main lines of
the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific. Much of this activity is due
to the prospective opening of the Bert
hold Indian reservation next fall.
The 500 Is running surveys on The
reservation from Plaza and the North
ern Pacific from Turtle Lake. It is re-
ported that the latter will extend its
Turtle lake branch due west to the
Missouri, touching the river nearly or
poslte the mouth Of the Little Mis-

Ger county, another party has been seen
in camp south Of the Little Missouri
on Hans creek in Dunn county, and a
third party, consisting of Assistant
Engineer G. B. Archer and seventeen
men, has arrived at Schafer in MIC
kenzie county. These three crews are
presumably working together with the
view of extending the north branch of
the Northern Pacific from Stanton on
the missouri, west along the. Knife, then
north to the Little Missouri, and from
there northwest across Mckenzie coun-
ty to connect with the Glendiye
branch of the Northern Pacific, now
building up the west bank of the Yell

The country through which these
many surveys are being run is wholly

very rapidly. Double the area of last

raised last year. Crop prospects were
never better than they are now.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Market Open Steady.

Chicago, May 24--Wheat: Market
opened about steady, rallied to 100 for
July and 9s$ for September on cover
Ing by shorts, but for the balance of
the session was largely liquidating
market, stop orders being reached all
the way down. No attention was paid
TO the news. The local professional
bears sold on all strong spots and on
some weak ones also. 1t seems to us
that on such sharp break that IL
quidtdon must have been severe
enough to at least call halt I'm the
decline and cause a rally. We cam
not change our views as to the ulti-
nt>tG laluss of wheat simply because
the market has gone down, as the facts
which have made us friendly have
not, as far as we can see, changed.
