NO EVIDENCE OF
 RUST IN CANADA Wheat Closed Nervous, h@ Hc Off to 1 Hc Advance.
 Rise in Provisions

Chicago. July 2T--Indecsion as to the chance of rust damage northwest unsettled wheat today. The market closed nervous at prices varying from l O izc off to 1Ac advance as compared with 24 hours earlier. Latest trading left corn ls a Ac down to 1ko up, oats 1-16@ Ac lower and provisions strung out from shade decline to 12Mc in- crease In price
 Canada sent denials and reiterati that rust was in evidence and threat ening the wheat crop north Of the in- ternational line. The fact that the plague had spread In North Dakota seemed to be confirmed. but there was high scientific authority for the as- sertion that three- quarters of the yield in the state was safe and that the whole of South Dakota and Minnesota had es- caped harm.
 As for North Dakota the outcome Is perhaps a quarter of the acreage ap- period to hinge on whether atmospheric conditions from now forward would de- velop the rust at more rapid rate than the kernel. The mold was report ed to be affecting not only the stems but also the chaff covering the heads Caution kept the active deliveries from fiuctuating more than 15c either way from last nights close. Import inquiry was said to be good but the effect was offset by Knowledge that the west was selling wheat to arrive freely Sep tember swung between %c and 94& 0, closing at 9Sss @ss%c, loss of 1s @ Ac net.
 Favorable weather gave corn bears the advance. Besides cash demand was poor and rural holders were asking for bids. September ranged from 64ss @ 65ac to 65Ag%c. with the close steady, k Q i4 net lower al 65h dp So A c. No. yellow was quoted at 74074hc

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. July N.-(Speeial)-The con- tinuance of recent conditions in Texas and the Atlantic states simulated the Liverpool market and sens our prices skyward on stop orders and further frightened buying. Trading was remark ably large for the week end. was cratic but with an easy advance from slight re- sessions.
 Short crop talk is heard and the local shorts are running to cover On the ad- vance the realizing was heavy though sellers lacked confidence. The fear of the bureau next Friday Is putting prices to a level which will discount a low figure. Crop advices are various. The Journal of Commerce says poor in Carolina but some hopeful features. Bradstreet says the general improvement specially in South Carolina and The Chronicle adds Texas weather is satisfactory.
 The local traders are thoroughly alarmed and no price seems too high.

BETTER FACILITIES. ASKED.
North End Residents Want More
Room and Better Heat in School
Building.
$4,000 BOND ISSUE RETIRED

b g 81 ;
Growth in the north end of Be-
midi has reached a point where the
residents there believe that. an addi-
tion to their grade school lis neces-
sary. A petition asking for two more
rooms, additional heating plant, and
toilet facilities was presented to the
school board at the last meeting, but
action was deferred until the next
meeting ofethe board on March g..
z The proposed improvements would
necessitate an expenditure of approx
imately $4,000. At the present time,
the school treasury appears to be low
and the board appears doubtful Of
the advisibility of issuing further
bonds. J.. P. Lahr, one of the mem
bers of the school board, stated today
that on Feb. 4, a bond issue of $12,-
900 was paid from the boards sink
ing fund. These bonds were issued
in 1902 and have been running for
ten years. He further stated that
at present there are bonds out for.
about 100000 of which $4,000 are
on the new high school.
In order to assist Superintendent
Dyer in the selection Of teachers for
the coming year, a committee of j. HI,
5Lahr and DR.. Marcum was appointed
to form the board.

Columbus, O., Feb. 20.-The most
intense interest is manifested by po-
litical circles throughout Ohio and
practically throughout the country
in tomorrow's session of the Ohio
Constitutional convention, owing to
the announcement that Mr.. Roose-
velt will deliver an address before
that body which, it is believed, will
be of the greatest significance in view
of Mr.. Roosevelt's possible candidacy
for the presidency. A short time ago
Governor Harmon addressed the con-
vention and declared against the in
itiative and referendum. It is be-
lieved that Mr.. Roosevelt will declare
himself in favor of both policies and
will submit arguments to show that
while he is progressive both Presi-
dent Taft and Governor Harmon are
reactionaries. Among the most ar
dent Roosevelt supporters there are
even some who express the opinion
that Mr.. Roosevelt's speech will
practically embody the platform on
which he would stand if he should be
nominated for the presidency.
