New York, April 23.-Hesitation by
stock market operators to attempt an
Interpretation of the situation was in
dicated today in the narrow range of
prices and small volume of business,
rev stocks moVed as much as a point
above or below yesterdays close.
Tentative efforts to bid UP, the lead
ers accomplished little. At the same
time bear traders were not inclined to
sell stocks aggressively. There were
several small swings back and forth,
but the day ended with only %inconse-
quent1al changes. Speculation was
governed by the same forces hat have
been operative for some time, and
which tend to repress any tendency
toward activity. European buying,
which recently doomed up as a factor
of considerable Importance, has SUBJ
sided, at least temporarily. The form
to be taken by the tariff revision bill
as finally enacted, n its effect upon
business conditions remain to be de-
termined. Wall street also is watching
with interest, though not concern,
Californta's proposed legislation af-
fecting the Japanese.
There were a few exceptions to the
dead level to which most stocks adj

llshed a low record, selling down az

*Acres.
Mr.. Cooper stated that, in the 20
months from July l, 1911, to March
81, 1913, there had been patented to
the company only 10000 acres, at
which rate it would be So years be-
fore patents would be issued to the
2,15O,0o0 acres ready for patent; also
in addition to the 2,750,000 acres, the
company estimated that at least 1000
veyed would be ready within a year:
also that this quantity would b. still
further increased as surveys now in
progress are completed. The conse-
quences of the delay in the issuance
Of patents, as explained by Mr..
Cooper, are:
First, and most serious, the COM
pany is unable to dispose of its lands
because Of the uncertainty of it's title;
therefore, the settlement and Develop
ment of the country is seriously re-
tarded.
Second-The company is not re-
CURED to pay taxes upon indemnity
lands until patent is issued, and.
therefore, ii is escaping the payment
OF taxes on the 1857 35 acres of in +,
demnity lands, the annual tax on
which, il is estimated, would be some
where from 100000 to $4,000.
Third-Lands within the place limits
being taxable from the date of survey,
the company for its own protection is |

eific land grant, but the geological
Montana is similar to that where oil
has been discovered in portions of
Colorado and Wyoming, and some
drilling for oil has been done in east
ern Montana, but, so far, without
success.
The position of the company, as ex-
planned by Mr.. Cooper to the secre-
tary, is that it cannot and does not
wish to take exception to any precau-
tons the department may deem
necessary, in the way of examination
of the lands before the issuance of
patent, but it feels that the depart-
nent should proceed forthwith to
make such examinations and investi-
cations, and, having done so, her is
sue patents to the non-mineral lands
without further delay.
Mr.. Cooper further stated that the
company was being openly charged
with delaying the issuance of patents
for the purpose of escaping taxation
upon it's lands, whereas h facts were
entirely to the contrary. For the past
10 years the company has continu-
ously and vigorously urged the de-
partment to complete the survey and
adjustment of its land grant; for hat
purpose has advanced money to make
the surveys, n has consistently done
everything in its power to hasten the
work of surveying, adjusting and
.patenting the grant.
Mr.. Cooper referred to a statement
made in the report Of the secretary
of the interior for the year 1909, that
the company was r~efraining from
making applications for the survey
of its grant for the purpose of es-
Gaping taxation, and handed to Sec
rotary Lane a copy of a letter which
he wrote to President Elliott of the
Pacific company as soon as
report in question was made pub |
nc, n which letter was forwarded
by President Elliott to the secretary
of the interior. In this letter Mr..
Cooper explained the efforts that the
company had made to get it's land
grant surveyed, and pointed out tina
at the time the report of the secre-
tary was issued the company had APP
plications on file and the money de-
posted with the treasurer of the
States covering the survey of
an area, which, at the ate of prog
ress h a been made by the in
terror department in surveys for the
.hree years previous, would require
years to complete: in other
words, at the time the secretary was
complaining that it was refraining
rom making applications for survey
II order to escape taxation, the COM
covering an area which it
would take seven years to survey, and
of these applications were more
han 10 years old, and the surveys
not yet been made.
The senators from Montana and
Washington are very much interested
n the situation presented to Secretary
lane, because of the large area of
awaiting patents in their states,
nd the unfortunate condition that re-
suits both in retarding the Develop
nent Of the districts in which the
are located, and the burden
brown upon other taxpayers by the
from taxation of the large
lrea of unpatented indemnity lands.
Secretary Lane expressed pleasure
hat his situation has been called to
lis personal attention, and stated that
he would Immediately have the mat
.er looked into, and some action taken
desired and much needed relief.

a prescription for my rheumatism. I
suffer greatly. A friend tried your
prescription was cured, but can't re-

Answer: Here is my favorite pre-
scription for rheumatism: Iodida of

"Helen j." writes: What would you
advise me to take. | suffer with indi-
gestion. constipation, gas on my storm
ach and my breath is bad I am afraid
of appendicitis"
Answer: Many cases of appendicitis
are caused by neglecting just such trou-

at once and take regularly for several
weeks at least, tablets triopeptine,
which are sold at all drug stores and
are packed in sealed cartons with full

pink, white and blue. The pink tablets

Grain and Provisions,

Chicago, April 23.-Export business
gave a sharp uplift to wheat here to-
day, closing prices showing a gain Of
from &c to 1@1hc to 1Ac. Corn
finished unchanged to &c lower; oats
made a net drop of Bc to h@Ac, and
provisions closed &c to 1712c off.
Many traders who had sold earlier
on news of much-needed rain in the
southwest, turned active buyers, and
the market became very strong. News
of the fall of Scutari to the Monte
negrins also helped bullish sentiment.
A survey of the International situa>
ton showed that large foreign re-
q~uirements of wheat would soon be in
order. All these influences offset
generally favorable domestic crop
news and large increase in primary
receipts.
Strong northwest markets lent sup
port to prices here, Winnipeg being
especially strong. Primary receipts Of
wheat today We're 4S4, 900 bushels
against 243,OOO last year. Seaboard
cl%earances of wheat and flour equaled
347, 900 bushels.
Large increase in receipts estimated
for next week depressed corn. A lit
tie show of strength was made on the
upturn in wheat, but it did not last.
The oats market was dull and mar
row..
Lowering of hog prices at the yards
had a weakening effect on provisions.
There was a good deal of selling pres
sure, particularly of lard. Today's
range:
May wheat opened at 91% @91kc;
high, 9Sc; low, 91%c; closed, 92A@
92Bc.
May corn opened at 55$c; high.
55&c; low, 55c; closed, 55hc.
May oats opened at 34%c; high,
