Chicago Gossip.

Chicago Dec. 15.-It was noticeable
in wheat that a number of the sure
thing players were covering shorts and
a few were taking the bull side. Local
professionals came in on 100000 bush
els around 96 cents and nearly every
local professional came in on shorts
yesterday. 1t was the impression of
traders last night that the Armour
Lichstern interest had taken the slack
out of the market the past few DAYS
and were working for an upturn.
Asked for his view Of the market, one
of the bull leaders said that he looked
upon 1t as sCalping proposition, but
did not expect it to move very far
from the present level. He regarded
1t safe to buy on a break of "a cent
from last nights close, and to sell on
all bulges Of "a to 1 cent above that
level. Bear houses said there was
nothing in the days news to warrant
an advance. 1t was claimed by people

MILWAUKEE, WILL

THIS is REPORTED TO az STATE
MENT OF VICE PRESIDENT M.
kENNA, WHO SAYS THAT IT
WOULD BE INA0VlsARLE TO
BEGIN WORK NEXT YEAR.

A special dispatch from willmar
Mimi, to The Mankato Free Press
reads as follows:
In reply to an inquiry requested by
many farmers and sent by the Will
mar Commercial club, as to the prob
ability of the st. Paul Railway Co
building the line of road projected
from Hutchinson to Fargo in the near
future, letter has been received from
Vice President e. w. McKenna. con-
tanning the following statement:
In respect to building a line upon
a survey between Hutchinson and
Fargo, which was made by this com
pany last summer, the company has
absolutely no plans in that direction.
as 1T must be patent to an observer
of events that the construction of any
additional mileage of railway under
existing conditions is entirely out OF
the question:"
There is little doubt, however, that
this line will eventually be built, and
that concerted action will be made
by people interested in this and ad-
joining counties to convince the COM
pany that route by way of Willmar,
Sunburg and Starbuck would tap a
country of far greater possibilities
than that reached by the first survey.

Muat PoIiee Their rain.

Fergus Falls Journal: The supreme
court of Minnesota has decided that
railway company is responsible for
what happens while the passenger is
on the train. A priest was riding in
an electric car and a drunken man in
the car used abusive language and
finally assaulted the priest. Through
Miss Evans, woman attorney, he
sued the company and got judgment
Tor $500, which was cut to 5000 and
the supreme court affirms this hold
ing that 1t is the duty of the road to
police its trains The priest appealed
to the conductor but the conductor re-
pied that the man was drunk and
seemed to take the view that he there
fore had the right to continue his
abuse This decision is important in
laying down a new rule for the safety
of passengers on train.

STREET CAR line
TO DILWORTH /?
MooRHEAD NEWS PUBLISHES
STORY TO THE EFFECT THAT
SUCH A LINE WILL BE BUILT
COMPANY WILL NEITHER DENY
NOR AFFIRM IT.

According to The Moornead News
last evening, that paper has received
information that the Fargo & Moor
head Street Railway Co. is to extend
its line to Dilworth. 1t is known that
the Northern Pacific has long since de-
sired to discontinue the running of its
shop train from Fargo to Dilworth, the
proposition being an expensive one for
them, and it is now stated that in or
der to do away with this constant ex-
pense they have decided to offer sub
stantial aid to the street railway COM
pany in building a line to Dilworth.
They are said to have offered the street
railway people the ties and the rails,
and to have granted them the privilege
of running over the railroads right
of-way, and it is said that the street
railway people have accepted the
proposition. The street railway COM
pany has, it is stated already ordered
two two-truck pay as you enter" cars
for service, and work upon the grading
and laying of rails is to be taken up
at the earliest practicable day in the
spring.
THE project is an important one,
and its fulfillment in the near future
looks to be among the reasonable pos
sibilities."
When asked about the matter today
the street railway management said
that they had nothing to say for pub
lication at present neither would they
affirm or deny the story which had
been printed. Last year, when the
subject Of transportation between the
cities and Dilworth was being dis
cussed, the suggestion was made that
the Northern Pacific could with profit
assist the street railway people in the
manner suggested.

REFUSE LOANS TO
HOLDERS OF GRAIN
COUNTRY BANKS HoPETo FORCE
FARMERS TO SHIP LAST SEA.
SONS CROP, SAYS THE MINNIE
APoLIs JoURNAL--No CON-
cERTEo ACTION.

| Minneapolis Journal: Without con-
certed action of any kind but moved
Individually by a desire to prevent
! congestion and keep the money supply
| normal, 200 or more country banks in
Minnesota have adopted the policy of
refusing to make loans to farmers who
are known TO be holding back grain.
The effect will be, it is believed, to in
crease the movement of grain from the
farms, increase the demand for cur
rency upon Minneapolis ST. Paul and
Duluth, and forestall an unfavora BILE
condition that it is believed would
arise IL the banks continued to loan
upon the farmers holdings of last sea-
sons crop
The grain situation and the money
supply conditions are different this
year from any within a recent time.
North Dakota had a short wheat crop.
Many farmers marketed their grain
promptly and liquidated their obliga-
tons Others. on the theory that the
short production will bring much high
er grain priCsss before there is another
crop raised in the northwest, stored
their grain and are carrying It, either
in their farm granaries or in country
elevators. In many instances they
have borrowed at the banks.
Where farmers are holding back
grain and are not borrowers, or in dis
tricts in Minnesota and the Dakotas
where the banks have surplus funds
to loan there is no effort being made
to change conditions. but in other dis
tricts where the banks have met the
demands Of farmers, some of whom
admit to the bankers that they have
the major portion of last seasons crop
unsold, the banks have become so we'll
loaned up that they are obliged to ask
the Minneapolis. st. Paul or Duluth
central reserve banks to help them out.
Recent intimation from the larger CEN
trail banks to the smaller country
banks has been that it is not desired
to carry farmers loans so placed. The
bankers consider that in holding back
grain the farmers are really speculat-
ing on the price of the future and they
do not wish to advance money for such
speculative purposes.

This law requirement applies to

poultry into the city and retailed them
when they are not drawn. Everybody
