REV. DR.. BEARD GIVES TALK

Rev. DR.. Beard Of this city spoke to
the high school students this morning
during the chapel period. The subject
of DIR. Boards talk was, Two Requi-
sites Of Success, which he handled in
an interesting manner.
In his talk he said that the two req
uisites were grit and grace, meaning
by grit. sand Or backbone, and by
grace, goodness. In speaking of grit,
he used the cases Of a great many peo-
pie who have won out only through
grit alone, such as Admiral Dewey,
Lieutenant Hobson. both Of the Span
ish war. Then as Parkmem, the his
torian, who val blind; Stevenson, the
children's story teller, who was an in
valid; Faucet, also blind, who per-
fected the English postal service.
Then for goodness or grace he recit-
ed the case of Wendell Phillips. the
great a~nti-s:avist, who in view of the
fact that all the people where. he lived
were slave sympathizers, made speech
after speech to people who came to
mob him. and won them over to his
way and his side.
So Rev. Mr.. Beard made plain to the
students of Fargo high school that the
two requisites of success were grit and
grace. .e." 90 .a

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, May 11.-Wheat: Aside
from IN early dip wheat held compar-
atively strong and closed with an adj
vance Of q to 1c. The feature was
the oversold pit condition and lack Of
pressure in the face of the bearish
crop outlook. Another influence was
the large decrease in the visible, 5,271,-
900 bushels. Foreign markets were
strong but export c~learances were
light. The strength in May was at
tributed to snort covering. "
Corn: Closed &c higher for the
May and II to &c higher for the de-
ferred months. Strong cables. unset
tied weather in Argentine, small re-
ceipts and wet weather over the do
nestle belt, which delayed planting,
were the influence.
Oats: Oats gained from nc to
12c0Bc. the principal influence being
the charter Of a cargo Of 100000 BUSH
els Canadian oats to come here from
Fort William. This was the first
transaction of the kind on record
The visible showed a large decrease,
8. 1900. 900 bushels. Weather for the
growing crop was perfect.

Grain Opinions.
Lamson Bros.-With continued fav-
orable weather conditions, present
prices will probably be difficult to
maintain. Corn will be determined
by the supply and demand that ap-
pears when farm work is completed.
Bartlett Frazier Cove look for
firmer prices in wheat and corn.
Fitch & Cove prefer to sell
wheat on the rallies.
Harris Winthrop G. Cove woul
sell wheat and corn on the bulges.
Logan & Bryan-The bullish o
eign situation Is offset by the enor-
nous harvest in sight in the south
west. Corn acts stubborn on the de-
clines.
Ware & Leland-Sell wheat on the
bulges. Corn looks lower at the mo-
ment, as do oats.

Washington. Sept. 19-The Interstate
commerce commission today decided To
reopen the eastern advance rate case
and will begin hearings here on Oct.
10. A formal order to that effect was
prepared.
The decision OF the commission
comes upon the recent application of
the railroads. which was made after
President Wilson had received a rep
resentative committee OF railroad pres
idents at the White House.
Ask Modification Of Decision.
The railroads also asked the commits
sion 20 modify its recent decision which
granted increases west OF Pittsburgh
and denied all increases between the
great lakes and the Atlantic seaboard.
Under the law the commission can not
modify that order without reopening
the case, which brings the whole ques-
ton up again for review. in which tho
railroads Will press for the per cent
increases thruout the territory east OF
the Mississippi and north OF the Ohio
and Potomoc rivers.
Western roads also are preparing ap-
plication for increases In freight rates
so that when tho commission begins
the rehearings IT will have substantial
ly before 1t applications for increased
rates from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Recent Conditions Cited.
The eastern railroads asked for a re-
opening not upon the showing they
made at the hearings prior 40 tho de-
cision but upon conditions which the
managers say have become apparent
since. The showing Of the roads for
June, which was not available when
the case was before the commisslpn
| last time. and the exigencies which
! have been thrust upon them BY the

ant difficulties OF getting new capital

were cited as the principal reasons why
the case should be reopened.
