Grein Letter.

Chicago. Ills, Dec. 2o.-Wheat:
The market opened shade higher
and has ruled strong all day. Prices
advanced about / cent from the low
point of yesterday. Continued talk OF
dry weather in the southwest seemed
TO be the chief bull incentive. The
leading longs have absorbed wheat on
the weak spots the past few days,
which left the market bare of offer
ings. Outside markets showed about
the same amount of strength as our
own. There was no improvement in
the cash demand.

PLAINTIFF RESTS
IN LATHROP CASE
AT CONCLUSION OF PLAINTIFFS
TESTIMONY COUNSEL FOR DE-
PENDANT IN DAMAGE SUIT
MOVES TO DIRECT VERDICT
AGAINST LATHRoP.

At the conclusion of the plaintiffs
testimony in the case of r. c. Lath-
rop VS.. the Fargo Moorhead Railway
Co., in which $4,000 damages are
asked for bodily injuries, the counsel
for the defense made a motion asking
that verdict be directed against the
plaintiff on the evidence offered. The
plaintiff rested and the court heard
the motion of the defendant and re-
ceived the authorities for the stand
taken.
This morning the session was con-
sumed with the testimony given by
DR., G. l.. Savage, who treated the
plaintiff during his recovery from the
injuries alleged to have been sustain
ed during the accident more than
year ago. The plaintiffs testimony
was taken in detail yesterday after
noon.
A. w. Fowler, of Stambaugh & Fow-
ler who appears for the street rail-
way corporation, made the argument
for the direction Of the verdict against
the plaintiff at the close of the Iatter's
testimony. His argument was lengthy
and involved many technical points
The court received the authorities for
the stand taken and took the matter
under advisement. Announcement of
the courts decision will probably be
made this afternoon.
Protest Heard.
Just before adjournment for the
noon recess a protest was heard urging
the permanent restriction from selling
on execution certain lands owned by
Thomas Hampton, who was represent
ed by Seth Richardson, of Barnett &

A New Saw Mill

Representatives of the George
E. James Mill Co. have been in
town this week looking over the
proposition of establishing another
saw mill in this district. Today
they left for McHenry inlet on the
lower md Of Etolin island, where
they have practically decided to To-
cate their plant. The mill, accor-
ding to present plans, will probab-
Iy be the most complete and mod
ern in the whole of Alaska. 1t will
be operated exclusively by water
power, of which there is an abun-
dance, and in addition to the regu-
lar lumber business will invade the
salmon box field. 1t is probable
that a pulp mill will be added
as soon as conditions warrant it.
George E. James & Co. are now
operating the mill at Douglas on a
lease which will expire in another
year, and the calculations are to
have the new plant ready for bust
ness by the time possession of the
other has to be surrendered. The
location of the new mill is such
that a speciality will be made of
cargo business as it wilt be close
20 the line Of steamboat travel. The
tug Challenge will probably be Sc
cured to do the towing for the new
mill.

Austin. Texas, July 2s.-By a de-
cisiye vote the house of representa-
tives yesterday morning adopted a
concurrent resolution calling for the
investigation of charges of corrup-
ton in the Legislature and elsewhere
which were made during the guber-
material campaign Just ended. The
resolution now goes to the senate
and IL is up to that body to say by
its vote whether or not the matter
shall be probed

fluenced or prevented during the
regular and former called sessions
of this legislature by the use OF
money land other corrupting influ-
ences;" that submission was defeat
ed by corruption and that favor
seeking interests used large sums OF
money and "other corrupting agen-
cies' with the legislature and in the
late campaign to influence the re-
suit in the primary election last Sat
urday.
The resolution as passed widers
the scope of the inquiry by including
the last named subject and increases
the membership of the joint commit.
tee from four representatives and
three senators to six representatives
and four senators. 1t Is substitute
for the resolution which was offered
Tuesday by Messrs. Canales and

early in the opening session yester-
day by ose gentlemen who explain

scope CT tAe inquiry, eliminate the
names Of particular individuals and
make the investigation in accordance
with the law enacted by the thirtieth
legislature preliminary to the IA
nous Bailey investigation. Where
the original resolution mentioned
the names of NJ. M. Crane and Cone
Johnson as authors of particular
charges the substitute eliminates
their names and declares: There
have been charges repeatedly male
