CHICAGO Gossop,

Chicago, Nov. 22.-It was said that
the local crowd was we'll out of their
long wheat last night, but there was
a mixture of sentiment with a good
many favoring buying on any further
decline for a quick turn. 1t was said
that some of the local longs have good
losses in their holdings and want out
side help to get the market up. Bears
see no change in the general situation
and look for a good increase in the
European visible supply in today's re-
port Gossip on wheat last night said
that Gluten admitted that he had
sealped in 100000 bushels wheat during
the day, selling May from 81 to 961a
cents and covering at fraction under
that figure that Valentine, Clifford and
other Bulls were bought around 81
cents were sellers in the last hour at
lower figures. Armour and several of
the bull houses had picked up consid-
cradle wheat on the closing break

STATE RESTS in
MEEHAN CASE
FARGO ATTORNEY FOR DEFENSE
GETS COMPLAINING WITNESS
SOMEWHAT TANGLED IN EVI.
DENcE-THos. ToRsoN FIRST
WITNESS FOR DEFENSE.

The state rested this morning in the
case Of the state VS.. Pete Meehan, who
is being tried on Indictment, charging
robbery in the first degree. The case
against Meehan's bartender, Steve
Rice. second man charged with the
same offense will follow the Meehan
case. as 1t was elected that they be
tried separately
The taking of the evidence in the
Meehan case began yesterday after
noon, and the first witness called by
the state was Harry Skarrow, the
complaining Witness who alleges that
he was robbed of his money by Nee
han and his bartender in the formers
saloon on Oct. 8, a few minutes after
closing time In his direct evidence
Skarrow related a very jauntily told
story in his answers to the questions
put to him by the county attorney, but
he was not very jaunty when he LEFT
the witness chair after the grilling he
got from Atty. Aubrey Lawrence OF
Fargo, who cross examined him for
the defense. Skarrow claimed that he
was robbed by the two men while
standing up in a small wine room in
the saloon. Mr. Lawrence asked his
questions in very quiet and careless
sort of way, but they were exceed
lngly tantalizing to Skarrow, for the
latter in his answers had to account
for every moment of time, every move
he made after entering the saloon,
and before he went there. Also the
witness was made to tell how he
honllaI ~ nF OH -.
bills, which he claims he was robbed
of, how he earned it and what change
he received after ordering several
rounds of drinks.
The second witness was William
Dow, called a star witness for the
state, he was youthful in appearance
and very vivacious and out spoken.
He came from New Jersey, was win
dow dresser in a clothing store, but
lately had been riding race horses over
the local racing circuit. His mission
on the witness stand was as far as
possible to directly corroborate the
complaining witness. Dow was thor
oughly grilled by Mr.. Lawrence and
he was made to account for every
thing he said he had seen done by
Skarrow or the defendant. He did
not seem to relish the inquisitiveness
of Mr.. Lawrence.
The witnesses called this morning
did not add much to the weight of evil
dence for the state, they were merely
incidents to the occurrences of the
time in question in the saloon.
The first witness for the defense was
Thomas Torson, a former city justice
of the peace, who testified to cases in
which Skarrow had been defendant
and had been fined.

market. after opening, lower in sym
pathy with the decline In our market
yesterday, later advanced sharply on
reports Of damage to the Argentine
crop In southern Buenos Ayres from
recent drought. The seaboard' report
ed a better demand for export and
sales OF forty-hve loads of Manitoba
wheat. There was a better injury
here by local millers but nothing large.
The market ruled nervous. After
opening firm on the early cables, later
declined when Liverpool closed lower,
but rallied again when Buenos Ayres
market came rs higher, and on the
improved export demand. In our
opinion, the market Is likely to rule
nervous until after the Argentine crop
is harvested and something more def
mite is known to the result.

Grain Opinions.

S. b. Chaplin & Co.: The wheat
market is at least on debatable ground
now, and any marked improvement in
the cash demand or confirmation of
Argentine damage would cause a sharp
advance.
Clement Curtis & Co.: Another in
crease in the visible broke good
wheat market and we cannot see any
thing in the near future but scalping
operations.
Shearson, Hammill e. Co.: We are
inclined to think that the wheat mar
ket will be very susceptible to buying
Of this sort were such encouragement
forthcoming, but during it's absence
scalping fluctuations are all that can
be expected.

Within the last two years the num-
Der of state institutions of tuberculosis
has doubled, and the number of county
and municipal institutions has increas
ed from about thirty to eighty The
expenditures Of public money for the
treatment of tuberculosis also has
more than doubled. Not less than S3,-

1909, when forty three legislatures met
and over 100000 in 1910, when only
eleven legislatures were in session The
appropriations of counties and cities

in the last two years will aggregate
fully $2.5OO,00O, bringing the total Of

George M. Huffaker of the CITY
meat market on Fourth street north
had to patronize taxicab last night
to take him to his home. His horse
and buggy, which he left standing in
the front of his meat shop about 6: 80,
last night had disappeared when he
went out of his store about 7 O'Clock
to go home. After a futile effort to
ind his rig, Mr. Huffaker reported the
loss to the police of both cities. This
morning parties found the rig tied in

funny one, and the humane society Of
