BIG lei

Minot, y. d., Aug. 28.-Eighteen
bushels of wheat to the acre, twenty
seven of barley and forty-one of oats
are the estimates for Ward county
made by the Union Investment com
pany Of Minneapolis, which has made
"A special investigation of Gro condf-
tons all over the state.
The company finds the average yield
for the entire state 17.9 bushels for
wheat, 30 for barley and 1913 for oats.
Ward county's yield is placed at more
than the average on all of these crops.

OATS \ RIG CROP

Faribault, Mimi. Aug. 2s.-Joseph
T%ouslgnant of the town of Walcott
fhreshed SO acres of oats. which turn
ed out $500 bushels, or an average of
about 60 bushels to the acre. He
says this is a fair average for this crop
over he county, although some yields
far above this have been reported. The
wheat yield will be good. but not as
good as expected. Barley and rye are
perhaps the best of any If the crops.
Corn is late and much of it will v
ripen before frost. The sweet corn is
good.

STRENGTH SHOWN
ON STOCK MARKET
Opening Prices Showed
Gains in all Standard
Issues Today. !

New York, Aug. 2S.-The congress-
sional a C and further confirmation
from high official and unofficial quar-.
tiers of the brilliant crop outlook and
undated demand for steel, iron, and
copper. were the chief factors which
impaired general strength to today's
stock market. London's high range
for our securities was also a favorable
influence. albeit the better inquiry for
Americans at that center probably had
its origin at that end.
Opening prices showed gains in all
the standard issue with one and two
point advances. respectively in st.
Paul and Canadian Pacic. the latter
being especially strong aboard on buy
ing attributed to Berlin. Hartman
and Hill issues, as we'll as the entire
granger group manifested an upward
tendency.
Among the industrials, United
States steel mounted to its best price
of the year and practically all the to-
bacco issues rose 3 points or more
On the whole coppers We're less a
feature than in any recent session.
London bought moderately here of
Amalgamated and Steel but it's sales
of Pacifics probably offset these pur-
chases. Discounts hardened abroad
again. with further limitations of an
early advance in the bank rate. Firm
ness was reflected in prices on the
Paris and Berlin exchange.
The local bond market was irresu-
lar. rejecting little of the strength
shown by stocks. Total sales par

ment bonds registered &c advanced Ia

passenger traffic due to the building OF
terminal for the Pennsylvania IN
Manhattan could not furnish any
where near the amount of money
which would be sufficient to represent
the interest on the cost of construc-
ton, even though there be slight IN
crease in fare. What MI. CaSSatt saw
in the future was something which
very few citizens of New York have
been able to forecast. That was the
relation which Long Island is to bear
TO Manhattan and to other parts or
the country. Only within Few months
has there been some realization of the
fact that Long Island is to be the great
manufacturing district OF the United
States. The enormous freight traffc
which will there originate or be dis
tributed will be exclusively in the con-
troll of the Pennsylvania, for that COM
pany now possesses monopoly
which can never be taken from it
not only of railway transportation
upon Long Island, but to and from
Long Island and other parts OF the
country. President Cassatt was great
" impressed by a fact which came in
cidentally to his knowledge some fif-
teen years ago and that was that the
freight originating at the great sugar
refineries of Long Island was actually
in quantity greater than the freight
originating at the worlds greatest
Touring mills in Minneapolis.
The New York Central is to earn an
income from improvements in real
property adjoining and over its great
electrified channel which 1t is now
estimated will be more than sufficient
to meet the interest upon the entire
cost of the construction of the new
terminal system, q cost which is to be
somewhat in excess of hundred mil
lion dollars
The financiers are wondering wl1eth-
er the expenditure of hundred mil
lions for the establishment of the great
terminals in Boston, which will bring
the New Haven and the Boston &
Maine systems into convenient and
precise physical touch, is to be justi-
fed by such increase in business or
economics of operation as will be suffi-
cient to bring returns large enough
to meet the interest upon the cost of
this terminal work. They are per-
suaded, however, that President Mel
ZEN is now satisfied that the event will
Justify this colossal undertaking.

HOW SUGAR IS SOLD
Witness Describes Road Travelled
From Producer to Consumer.

New ork, May 16.-Wallace p. Will
LETT, publisher of a trade paper, contin-
ued here his testimony in the govern
ment dissolution suit against the
American Sugar Refining company and
other sugar products, concerns alleged
to constitute monololy in restraint of
trade.
WilIett testified as to conditions in
the sugar trade and methods of the
business between 1850 and 1887. before
the American Sugar Refining company
was incorporated.
In these days, he said, imported
sugar was bought and sold by brokers
largely on speculation, shipments being
stored some time for three years to
await a favorable market. This condi-
ton changed. he added, in 1887, when
the speculative phase of the industry
was largely done away with. Condi-
tons today are entirely different he
said and shipments are rarely stored
Lee than 25,000 tons he said, were now
stored in New York. The method of
selling refined sugar, Mr.. Willett said.
had not changed since 1887, the product
being disposed of by refiners to brokers
and successfully t jobbers, retailers
and the public. Some times, he said.
the refiners sold direct to the jobbers.
but in such cases the jobbers' broker
received brokerage of ten cents a bar
rel although he might have taken no
part in the transaction.

him already.
"Of uncontested delegates elected
we now have a considerable majority
over Mr.. Taft. On the present show
ing it would be impossible to nominate

A reply to Taft's remarks about
Colonel Roosevelt and the Canadian
reciprocity bill was made by the coll
onel in his speech at Fostoria. He
said:
81 wish to say one word with refer
ence to the statement of Taft the other
day, that 1 had favored his reciprocity
plan. So did as he told it to me. 1
have always been in favor of genuine
reciprocity but am against reciprocity
which makes the farmer pay the whole
burden.
''Mr. Taft never told me and I never
knew until found out long afterward
that his proposed treaty contained, for
instance, a provision for letting grain
in free but protecting the manufac-
tured flour of the millers' trust; that
his treaty contained a provision which
tected the dressed meats, the product
of the beef trusts. These made it in
my Judgment, an unfit treaty."

HE RAN DOWN BooTLEGGER.
But Brandon Nearly Reached the
Oklahoma Line.

Liberal, Kan, May 16.-Sheriff H.
H. Edison of Seward county had an
experience with a bootlegger south of
this city that was one of the most
amusing affairs pulled off in this vi
entity for some time. Frank Brandon
has been under suspicion for bootleg
ging here for several months. He re-
Gently learned that the authorities
were after him and has been spend
ing most of his time just across the
state line in Oklahoma. But Sheriff
Edison was in the country south of
here and stopped at the Smith farm.
Brandon was also on the move,
drifting north in Kansas territory and
was spied by the sheriff coming
across country to the south. The Of
ficer started out to. meet the liquor
peddIer, but Brandon recognized him
at a distance of about 100 yards and
beat swift retreat due west with
the intention of turning south across
the state line little later.
The marathon was on. Sheriff Eid-
son shouted for the suspect to stop
and punctuated his language with the
barking of his six-shooter, but all of
no avail-the bootlegger sped on.
After racing at high speed for over a
mile, across fields, over fences and
through partially filled draws, Bran
don'S strength began to wane@so did
the officers. The sheriff's legs wob-
bled badly and his knees grew weak
beneath him-so did Brandon's The
fugitive was struggling doggedIy on
ward and the state line was nearing
with each painful STEP The sheriff
realized that it was up to him. With
one last mighty effort he gained on
the suspect in spectacular sprint and
then stopping, took all of Gods good
oxygen into his lungs he could hold
and shouted:
Brandon, if you don't stop I'll
shoot" The short, pithy warning of
the officer worked on Brandon's
strained nerves like magic and he
fell to the ground as if struck by a
bolt of lightning After a long and
much needed rest the men returned
to this city and Brandon is now
boarding with the sheriff and trying
to console himself with second houors
in the big race.
