Grain Letters.

Chicago, Ill. Sept. 27.-Wheat: Crop
prospects In the Argentine continue
favorable, Cash demand here was very
quiet and the seaboard reported little
or no demand there for export Trade
was large all day and there has been
considerable liquidation and lot OF
short wheat covered on the decline,
but with stocks increasing both in
this country and Europe, and little
cash demand and export limits so far
out Of line, only leaves the market in
weaker position. AS long as crop
prospects in the Argentine keep SO
favorable. we believe our prices will
have to decline to an export basis

chieaao oossip.

Chicago. Sept. 27.-A majority Of
operators are looking for decline in
wheat but none of them are playing
large lines on the short side. Bears
had all the statistics In their favor,
but the bulls expect that the bear
cards will all have been played in the
near future and then they will have a
show One of the leading cash hand
iers called attention to the hardening
of the cash premiums here and in the
northwest and said he expected to see
cash wheat work nearer to December
as it has been doing for a week past
1t was the general opinion Of the bears,
however, that prices must decline to
level where a good export business
can result. The narrowness of the
daily fluctuations make the market
unattractive to the outside public and
even the local professionals are re-
stricting their operations, as the trade
is not large enough to admit of quick
turns on large lines, Inter Ocean.

Burrows today barred hearsay evil

The ruling was concurred in by

low legislators in which he says
they admitted to him that they

Moorhead Department
FEAR WATER SHORTAGE
Some Moorhead People Are Rather
Anxious About the Low Stage Of
the Water in the River.

| While 1t is not known what the ex-
act condition would be, there are a
number of Moorhead people who are
rather fearful that the water supply
would be cut off from the city mains
| If the river should freeze UP while
the river is at its present low stage.
Some believe that unless there is
enough rain to raise the water In the
river considerably higher than 1t is
at present 1t will freeze to the bot
| tom during the winter thus cutting off
the supply and leaving the city without
fire protection and any means Of
flushing the sewers.
However 1t Is rather early to become
very anxious about the matter as there
will in all probability be plenty of
time for heavy rains to fall before the
real cold weather sets in. Just what
effect the temporary dam below the
Fargo pumping station would have on
the situation is not known. This
obstruction has raised the water at
the Moorhead pumping station con-
siderably, 1t being situated some dis
lance up stream from the Fargo plant.
1t is not known just what the depth
of the water is at the Moorhead sta
ton, but it is over three feet and that
is about the usual thickness of the
winter ice. However, should the
shadows up stream freeze up solid 1t
would leave only a. limited amount
under the ice at the pumping plant and
this fact is also being considered.
The city officials do not look serious
ly at the question, however, but 1t is
hoped by all that there will be suffi-
Client rain to increase the volume of
water and thus remove all danger of
possible crisis.
