SECTION MEN OUT
Section Men Struck When COMPANY
Gu OF Fuel.

Mandan, N. D.. May 25.-Consider-
able amusement is expressed over the
fact that Mandan's section laborers
went on strike yesterday. and are
still refraining from work. 1t seems
that along about the middle of last
winter orders were issued by head
quarters at St. Paul that hereafter all
section and common laborers on the
road purchase their w fuel. as they
had previously been in the habit Of
taking it from the company's supplies.
1t seems that no objection was raised
at the time. though the laborers did
not take kindly to the new plan. Re-
Gently some old ties in the local yards
have been sold. and the Italian labor
ers raised the objection to this action
that they should be entitled to them
as fuel for their ave bake ovens, but
their request was not granted. Tho
whole crew. twenty-five in number,
assembled at the usual hour of Z
o'clock yesterday morning and told
their foreman. II. B. Lunde, that UNI
less they We're given some of these
ties they would a work, which
they forthwith did. Roadmaster c..
Nelson Of Dickinson issued orders that
their request be granted, but the spe-
cial agent of the company counter
manded the order and a communica-
ton from st. Paul is now being await
ed. Meanwhile only six section labor.
erS are at work.

SUMMARY
THE CHICAGO SITUATION

Chicago, May 25.-The Inter-Ocean
says this morning: The gossip among
the wheat trade yesterday was that
the heaviest selling was lone by the
same interests that is largely short
corn and oats and Is trying to get in,
the wheat market being forced lower
in ar effort to break the coarse grains.
1t vas noticeable on the breaks. be-
low ITO. for the July. that offerings
were readily absorbed and prices re-
bounded every time the market broke
below that level. Bears were conf
dent Of their position. believing there
has not been enough damage in Kan
sas to warrant higher prices and said
that the market has recently been
over-bought. They believe that Kan
sas will get good rains in a few days
which they believe will remove tho
bullish influences. They argued last
night that the increase in crop west
at the Missouri river over last year
will Offset the loss east and that the
northwest will have a good crop. It
was the general belief among the bulls
that the bears are getting in bad. and
that should rains fail to materializo
they will buy their wheat back at
higher prices. 1t was reported late
yesterday that Lichstern had sold A
large lot of cash wheat but it was not
confirmed. although he had one bid
for half a million bushels cash wheat.

STAGNAT|0N IN
NEW YORK MARKET
Only Item of Interest Was a
Jump of Seven Points in
American Tobacco.

New York, May 25.-Stagnation
such as is often witnessed during mid
summer overlook the stock market
The first hour brought a very moder-
ate degree of activity, particularly in
the low prices issued. but after that
dealings fell until they averaged little
moro thar 10000 shares an hour.
During the.lnorning there was a VIC
lent uprush in the tobacco shares, es-
pecially American tobacco, which rose
seven points. but at midday practical
~ all this gain was lost. For the rest
of the day the market dragged along
lIstlesSly.
More advances of cash to Berlin
were made by our bankers today, COW
erlng the sixty day period, but the
huge sums required to construct the
new underground roads in this city. to
which our leading bankers are com
mitted, may cause a contraction OF
European credit.
Bright Prospects.
Apropos OF conditions out of this
country, latest figures tabulated by
the authorities at Washington fully
confirm recent roscate views regard
ing our foreign commerce. 1t is esti-
mated thai exports will approximate
S2.2oo, 600 o. II imports s1,6OO,-
600. 600 leaving a balance to our
credit of $500, 900. 900. Raw cotton
again leads the list of our shipments,
while coffee ranks first in point of re-
ceiptS.
West Strong on Cash.
Western reserve centerS are strong
in cash n as vet there are no indi-
cations h a this part of the country
will be called upon beyond a modcr-
ate extent to finance the harvesting.
Throughout the bank week the
movement of cash has favored this
center with resultant gains by local in
situations. The only domestic drain
on u reserves has been occasioned
by transfers to the Pacific coast, an
other SHIPMENT of $1,000, 600 being
made today.
Discounts hardened again in Lon
don with some covering of contracts.
Dealings here for foreign account were
lnc~onsiderable but liquidation of our
stocks in Berlin seems to have ter
minated.
The bond market manifested a bet.
ter tone. Total sales. par value. ag-
eregated 5000, 900.
Z. S. bonds were unchanged on
call.

tions above the previous high for
Septemher-that future closing at
105 and tho July to 113 3-S where it
closed.
Crop news from the southwest was
rather contradictory. Predictions of
sas was the source Of a little uneasi-
ness among the shorts as they figured
that should ii turn hot and dry over
Sunday II might cause an advance
Monday. Warmer weather was re-
ported in the spring wheat territory
which Is construed as favorable for
wheat as the plant will make more
rapid growth.
The Eucnos Aires market closed
steady and unchanged yesterday. The
Paris market was irregular today
with some pressure In the nearh"
stuff as Il result of reCent purchases.
July in that market. however. was
firmly supported on light offers and
decreasing stocks of wheat there. The
weather i'm the United Kingdom has
turned fine and hot. More rain Is
needed as some sections are still very
dry and have been without moisture
for a long period.
Stocks of wheat in Minneapolis
show a decrease of 100000 bushels
for one day. September wheat in
Minneapolis is up a cent and the July
up 3-S cent for the day.
Some parts of Kansas had showers
but the territory where it was most
needed showed no precinitAtion.

ENGINE WAS NOT DYNAMITED
Explosion at San Antonio Which
Killed 26 Men, Was Result Of
an Accident.

Austin, Tex, April 6.-Members OF
the state railroad commission are re-
viewing the testimony which was
given at the recent investigation in
Can Antonio of the explosion of the
Southern Pacific locomotive which re-
suited in the death of &c men and the
injury of many others. w. D. VIII
liams, a member of the Texas rail-
road commission, who was present
and assisted in conducting the ex-
animation of witnesses, says:
"There was but one trend to the
testimony, and that went to show that
the explosion was wholly an accident.
1t was caused by the pop or safety
valve, being screwed down by order
of the roundhouse foreman, and the
employee who did it was on the engine
when the explosion occurred and was
killed We found the valve and it's
condition showed that no steam could
escape from it,"
