STOCK MARKET
Undertone More Cheerful,
With Moderate Gains at
the Close.

LONDON. August 1O.-Although the
trading the stock exchange during the
week was largely of a holiday character
the undertone was more cheerful. and in
most of the sections prices closed at
moderate gains. The prospects of the
money collected under the insurance act
being invested in Silt-edge securities
prompted fresh purchases in this section
Consols gained another three-sixteenths
and many home railway bonds advanced
more than d point, while good traffic re-
ports, the favorable statement of the
board of trade for the month of July and
revived confidence in the passage of the
railway bill sent home rails higher.
The Balkan situation, however, kept
foreign securities in rather an uncertain
state. Business broadened in the miscel-
laneous section, where shipping, iron,
steel oil and rubber stocks all received
attention and advanced at the end of the
week. Renewed buying also wiped out
earlier weakness in gold mine shares.
American Stocks Vary Little.
American securities varied little during
the week. Gov. Wilson's speech and bet
ter crop reports held prices steady, but
Amalsamated Copper fell after the pub
location of the American statistics. Can
adian Pacific advanced five points under
general buying induced by good earnings
and rumors of new issue of stock.
Gold shipments to Brazil, which are eX-
pected to reach SJ,000.O00 in the near
future, and the belief that Egypt will
soon require gold caused discount rates
to harden. while money will be dearer, 1t
is expected, i'm view of the locking up of
government balances and the large trade
requirements.
Dealings Are Moderate.
Money and discount rates were quiet
today. Dealings were moderate on the
stock exchange, but the tone good,
especially in Canadian Pacific. which adj
vanced Us points on Berlin buying. Home
rails hardened and Kaffirs and oil shares
We're in demand at higher prices.
American securities were quiet and

BEMlDJl BUTTER IS
SOLD IN NEW YORK
Product of Local Creamery Graded
Above Average and Brings a
Higher Price.
EASTERNERS PAY A PREMIUM
Are Charged One Cent a Pound More
For Article Made From Northern
Minnesota Cream.
BIG RUN THIS WEEK
Peterson Expects to Have Made Over
1900 Pounds When Saturday
Night Comes,

Bemidji butter is being sold on
the New York market at premium
of one cent pound The butter
buyers have decided that because of
it's high grade that it is worth more
than ordinary butter The butter is
shipped in tubs averaging sixty-three
- pounds.
Since it's establishment several
weeks ago, the Bemidii creamery has
been making rapid strides to the
front as a producer Of first class but
ter. About $50 pounds were made
the first week, but last week the but
termaker, Mr.. Peterson, turned out
close to 1900 pounds He says that
the product this week will run close
to 1900 pounds as new station has
just been opened at Pinewood.
Mr.. Peterson is at present alone in
the creamery, but states that if the
amount of cream shipped in keeps
increasing as fast as it haze done the
past two weeks, that he will have
to have an assistant at once. Mr..
Peterson makes a personal test of
each can of cream received, computes
its amount of butterfat and pays the
farmer on that basis only. Thus the
farmer who waters his cream in the
hope Of getting more for it is fooled.
But three or four tubs of butter
are consumed locally per week is the
statement made by Mr.. Peterson to-
day. He said that the butter was of
much higher grade than a lot that
is shipped in here as the fact that it
brings the highest New York price
proves. An effort is being made to
have more of the butter consumed by
home people and so keep that money
in circulation in this part of the
state
During the month of May, accord
ing to figures prepared by Mr.. Peter
son and R. L. Given, who is secre-
tary of the company, the creamery
paid $478.29 to farmers for cream.
At the end of the month, there was
645 pounds of butter in stock which
at a market value of thirty cents a
pound was worth $191.50.
The following figures are taken
from the monthly report to the state
dairy and food department.:

MAY URGE REBELLION
Roosevelt Leaders Declare Fight
Will Be Taken to Presidential
Electors if Taft Wins.
Finn VOICES PROTEST

Chicago, Ill, June 13.-Recourse
to the Roosevelt men who have been
selected as presidential electors in
different states is the announced plan
of VIM. Finn of Pittsburgh should
the convention nominate President
Taft. Roosevelt leader made
this statement yesterday in vigorous
attack on the national committee, in
which he declared that such move
ment, while it might defeat the Re
publican nominee for president,
would save the party in the big Re
publican states.
His position was Endorsed by Gov
ernor w. e. Glasscock of West Vir-
GINA, who declared all the West Vir-
GINA sRepu blican electors are for
Roosevelt; Rnd would vote for him in
the electoral college, regardless OF
the action of the national conven-
ton.
Senator Jos. M. Dixon listened to
Mr.. Finn and Governor Glasscock
and said: 81 don't think there will
be any need for such action. In my
opinion Col. Roosevelt surely will be
nominated. The Taft forces will not
dare to steal the nomination

Season Tickets at 81 Will Cover ALI
Six Attractions at a Material
Saving.
TH1RTY-Two BOYS ARE COMING
Have Signed Applications For the
Camp to Be Pitched at the
Fair Grounds.

Fifty cents has been decided upon
as the price of single admissions to
| the evening entertainments of Uni
versity week. This action was taken
today by the committee in charge of
the week after conference with
members of the Commercial club.
Season tickets have been left at 81 SO
that by buying a season ticket, the
purchaser saves 50 on the week.
1t is hardly probable that any
luncheon will be served to the BUSH
ness men on Business Mems Day but
the committee looks with favor on
the idea of having a luncheon for
business men Saturday noon with
President Vincent as the guest of
honor. AS DR.. Vincent's public adj
dress is scheduled for . p. m, many
of the business men will be unable to
hear him at that time. II the COM
mittee finds enough sentiment in fav-
or of the MONDAY luncheon, the nec-
essary arrangements will be made at
once.
Press reports from the southern,
part of the state say that the meet
ings are being well attended and that
the people are especially enthusiast
tic over the entertainments put on
evenings. It is said that the "Mer-
chant of Venice" as played by the
Dramatic club is proving one of the
strongest attractions of the week.
Not little interest is also being cen
tered on. the exhibition and demon
stration of the gyroscope as few peo-
pie have ever seen one of the ma
chimes in action.
Thirty-two boys have signed with
Professor Stewart for the boys camp
to date. This number insures the
success of the camp and every effort
is being made to plan good time
for the boys while they are in Be-
midi. The camp will probably be
pitched at the fair grounds where 1t
will be close to the High school
farm
The boys will hold stock Judging
contests, will have baseball games,
foot races, swimming contests and
other athletic sports which will ap-
peal to them. About eighteen OF the
boys will come to the city as the
guests of the Crookston Lumber COM
pany as they live on land formerly
owned by that company.
Some changes are expected in the
program as published III the Pioneer
last night but these will be prlnci-
pally in the Farmers Day and Bust
ness Mems Day programs and will be
announced as made.

stocked, it is illegal to sell pike
caught in this lake. A limit of TWEEN
