Undoubtedly the markets technical
position had much to do with the i'm
provement; the floating supply of
stocks is small, and the buying of any
consequence soon enough lifts the

ably continue to dominate trading for
the time being and barring any very
serious developments, it would seem
to us as though purchases made on
recessions, should prove profitable.

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-Wheat-The mar
ket opened about steady, an advance
taking place during the earlier portion
of the session, the new crop futures
leading in strength on the reiteration
Of reports from the southwest about
dry weather. We notice in most of
the reports that while a deficiency of
moisture is claimed the opinion is ex-
pressed that no real damage has yet
occurred. With a continued weaken
ing in the near delivery of wheat in
our own market, which to our minds
certainly demonstrates a lack of de-
mand, 1T seems scarcely probable that
an ~antedated crop scare is likely to
permanently advance and hold prices.
Corn-The early strength in wheat
caused timid shorts to cover and all the
was lost later in the session..
we believe that accommodations from
now on will prove the ultimate weight
upon values, n in no respect change
our opinion regarding sales on the
hard spots.
Oats-Steadiness prevailed early in
the session, the market weakened later
with other grains. We continue to
look for a decided increase in the
movement and lower prices all around,

EAST SIDE NOTES.

A very successful social event last
night was the dancing party given by
the football squad of the Moorhead
high school at the Comstock hotel. The
affair was splendidly managed and the
participants very thoroughly enjoyed
themselves. .'.
Mr.. and Mrs. Howard Moody have
returned from the cities where they
have been viewing the auto show and
other sights.
A very pretty valentine party given
in the city last evening for the delecta-
ton of about fifty young people was
Ellingson at the home of the former.
The decorative scheme used in the
rooms of the beautifully appointed
home was a feature which met with
the admiration of all Of the guests on
account of its appropriateness. Hearts,
hearts, hearts, they were everywhere
and arranged so deftly. The dishes
were heart shaped. The round of amen
tiles provided by the. hostesses kept
the guests busy every moment Of the
time-guessing matches and drawing
profiles of each other created lots of
fun. The 1913 anniversary for the god
of love will not soon be forgotten by
the guests of the Misses Flaten and
EllingSon.
Oscar Martinson, of the jewelry firm
of Quale & Martinson. has gone to
the cities and also expects to visit in
Calumet, Mich, and Chicago.
The Rev. and Mrs. H. A. Kernen
have returned from a visit to Crooks
ton where the reverend gentleman
took part in the ordination Of a new
pastor.
The people of Crookston seem to be
busily engaged in the discussion Of

state capitol at st. Paul playing base

nesota for the next two years at least
unless some member of the senate
makes a move to close ball parks on
the Sabbath. The Morken bill pro-
hibiting Sunday ball met its death in
the general legislation committee of
the house on Friday. Every member
of the committee voted to recommend
the bill for indefinite postponement.
J. H. Hanson has returned from a
visit to the automobile exposition at
Minneapolis.
Mrs. C. e. Belknap's friends will be
glad to hear that she is recovering
nicely from an operation to which she
was submitted a day or two age.
The date for Captain Amundsen's

Truman Involves Points.

The contest over the will Of the late
Mrs. George Truman, which has re-
suited in a three cornered law suit in
the district court before Judge Pol

to the stand for the defense were Mrs.
Lottie Becker of Chicago, daughter of
the deceased who is i~ntervenor in the
case. George Nichols, cashier of the
Fargo National bank, Mrs. c. N.
Swart. Mrs N. G. Rusk and Mrs. G. A.
Alfred. MI. Nichols was asked to
testify to certain certificates of de-
posit made by the late Mrs. Truman
in the Fargo National bank in the
name of Mrs. Becker and herself for
a number of years prior to her death.
The other witnesses testified that
for many years during her married
life with the plaintiff, the deceased
was self-supporting. They testified
the diamonds and Jewels left by Mrs.
Truman were to be gifts to her
daughter. The defense made a motion
to dismiss the action just at the noon
hour. and arguments regarding this
morning will be heard this afternoon.
Judge w. Fl. Barnett appears for the
plaintiff. Ed Conmy of Watson e.
Young represents the Dakota Trust
Co., and Mrs. Becker's attorney is r.
