Rroomhall's Report.

Liverpool, Feb. 27.-World's wheat
shipments last week, 100000; previ-
Gus week, 10,767,0OO; last year, TO-
$4,000. Corn last week, 100000; pre-
vious week, 3,369,O0O; last year, L.
$4,000.
The wheat market was steady at the
opening with prices unchanged to "a
lower. The weakness in America will
be offset by a large decrease in local
stocks here and smaller Russian ship
ments than expected. Following the
opening, the market showed a harden
ing tendency with some covering Of
shorts and lighter offerings and values
advanced Il to y. The strength in
Buenos Ayres at the close on Saturday
and less pressure to sell Argentine
steamers, with a better general demand
for cargoes and firmer Australian offers
caused the advance. At midday the
market was steady and II to 4 higher
than Saturday. -Broomhall.

An inquest into the death of Nels
Edward Lundgren, late night watch
man at the Dwight Baldwin Touring
mills. last Friday night, was opened
this morning at the city hall by Coro-
ner Vincent. The witnesses were di-
rectly examined by County Attorney
Johnson and some of them were ques-
toned by Atty F. H. Peterson, rep
resenting the family of the deceased.
The jury consisted of John Erickson.
Thomas Torson, Enoch Hagelin, A. j.
Williams, P. j. Kali and B. Kippels.
Shorthand reports were made of the
testimony by George L. Walker, for
the state, and by Mr.. Peterson's office
stenographer.. The widow and children
Of the deceased were present at the
hearing.
Engineer Boatman of the mill was
the first witness. He detailed the du-
ties Of the night Waterman and also
told Of the finding of the body Of the
dead Waterman and it's condition.
Charles Dahl told of his meeting Mr.
Lundgren in the street on Friday
night about ten minutes to s o'clock
The two engaged in general converse
ton and referred to an engineers job
which was to become vacant. De-
ceased was as well as usual and he
was perfectly sober. Witness last saw
deceased about $40 on the night in
question, when Lundgren said he
would go into the mill to start up the
pumps and give the engine some wa
ter. The next time witness saw de-
ceased was when he viewed his dead
body, resting on the left side at a
point east of the mill track and the
lantern he carried was short distance
away from the body. When witness
saw deceased Friday night he was
carrying his watchman's clock around
his neck in the usual manner for such
timepieces. .-.. .r.-
c. L. Gross, the manager of the mill,
said he was out of town on Friday
all day. He told the jury that it was
the duty of the night Waterman to
attend to the fires and steam and make
hourly trips all over the mill, carry
ing a Watchman's clock. He had to
visit ten key stations and at each place
make a register The stations were
arranged so that remote parts of the
lister dial in the clock, taken from the
body Of the deceased, showed that he
had made rounds at z, and o'clock
according to instructions. The pre-
sumption is that he made his last reg
istration in the mill office and that he
was on his way to the engine room
when he met with the accident which
is alleged to have been the cause of
death. Several other witnesses were
called to give formal testimony as to
the finding Of the body, it's condition,
etc. The taking of testimony was COM
pleted about noon and the jury adj
journed until 1880, when they were
to meet to prepare their verdict. The
inquiry was held at the express wish
of the family, as it was desired that
there should be a record Of the facts
pertaining TO the accident.

HORWITz DIDN'T ELOPE
Similarity of Names, and Occupations
Caused Some Confusion About
Fargo Mans Identity.

His friends are having some fun out
of Harry /. Horwitz. The twin city
papers of last week contained an ac-
count of the elopement of Harry Hor-
WITT, a st. Paul cigar dealer, and a
Miss Hamilton. Because the Fargo
man is also in the cigar business, many
of the latter's acquaintance thought
he was meant. The confusion arose
over the similarity of the names and
the vocations of the men. The local
Harry Horwitz has been married some
time and is not in the clipping business.
