HURRY UP TINE
BY Street CARS
THE OLD IL MINUTE LOOP TRIP
SHORTENED TO 10 MINUTES
OTHER CHANGEs-STREET CAR
CONDUCTORS WILL FURNISH
CARDS-No WAITING.

Patrons of the Fargo street cars will
have to be on the crossing when the
street car arrives and on the proper
crossing at that, if they nope TO catch
their car hereafter. The company has
again put on the 10-minute schedule
on h Fargo loops, instead of the 12-
minute schedule and has Shortened up
the time between cars on all the lines.
Hereafter cars will leave Broadway
and n. P. avenue for the north and
south side every 10 minutes. The
courthouse cars going south and the
Milwaukee depot cars going north
leave on The hour and at 20 and 40
minutes past each hour. The st. Johns
hospital Inc Great Northern depot cars
leave at 10, 80 and 90 minutes past
each hour.
Because of the shorter time to make
the switches, the motormen have to
hit 'er up between stops and cannot
stop to let a passenger run half a
block to make the car, as formerly was
sometimes done.
Cars stop always on the far side
of the crossing and passengers must
be on the right hand side of the car
facing the direction the car is going.
The quicker service has been put
on for the convenience of the patrons
of h street cars and people who get
left because the motorman refuses to
stop when they are not on the spot
should not swear at the motorman He
is simply following orders that have
been issued as a benefit to the public.

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, April 16.-Wheat: Opening
prices showed a fractional advance, in
sympathy with the tirmness abroad, the
market hesitating, but shortly turning
strong and continuing so to rule
throughout the balance of the session.
The strength came chic Nv from eX-
traVagant reports regarding the eX-
port business at the ~sea-bOard and
there was, without doubt, a fair
amount of business transacted late
yesterday and possibly early today, but
in no such volume, in our opinion, as
variOusly reported. We do not care to
put any estimate on the amount of the
export transactions. TOday's rally in
wheat shows clearly the temper of the
market, and the general trend of pro-
fessiOnal sentiment the same being.
most receptive of news, in any way
bullish. IT was noticeable that on the
strong spots the selling came from
commission houses supposed to be still
long. At the moment, we prefer to
consider the market a trading affair,
and certainly advise against selling on
weak spots.
Corn: After opening steady. the
market met with a flood of long corn,
which carried prices off sharply. These
offerings were absorbed, in good part,
by commission houses and the market
rallied nearly lc per bushel from the
low point, dropping back again to-
ton by both longs and shorts, but We
consider the buying today of a rather
good class. Indications point to a con-
tinuatiOn of a small movement for the
immediate future, and therefore, selling
pressure in the way of hedges is likely
to be rather limited. Shipping demand
today was only fair in fact rather
lighter than for the past two or three
days.
Oats: The market was very cratic.
selling off early with corn, rallying
sharply after noon there was some
further liquidation of the May n
commission houses generally were
sellers of the deferred months. Cash
demand small and prices unchanged to
d shade easier. All reports from the

Pattei had covered 500, 900 bushels of
each grain, and some placed the fig

was by the Armour interest. The lat
ter have been heavily long corn and
