Washington, April 1S-Huerta has parleyed again. He de-
mands that his salute to the United States flag shall be returned
simultaneously. This, President Wilson is practically certain not
to accept. Many regard tt S a piece of studied insolence.
Secretary Bryan has instructed Mr.. O'Shaughnessy to finally in
form Huerta that the United States will accept nothing less than a
salute of 21 guns and that the American ships will reply after the
salute has been fired.
This latest hitch at the eleventh hour, when officials here ex-
pected the situation was as good as closed up, was disclosed in dis
patches from Charge OShaughnessy. President Wilson discussed
it with The cabinet Administration officials said privately Huerta s
counter proposition would not be accepted.
The development confirmed the fears of those officials who ex-
pected Huerta would equivoeate again. Any intention Of recalling
any ships of the fleet now bound to Tampico was abandoned and
those close to the administration expected to see President Wilson'S
demand for an unqualified apology backed up.

Thirteen hundred bushels Of new
wheat have been received at the
Russell-Miller Milling company in this
city, and over 500 Of it has been grad
ed Nc. 1 Northern. The remainder
has been graded No. g.. 1t is expected
that a great deal of the new product
Will be received in the city next week.
Very little threshing of wheat has
been done yet, but within the next
ten days or two weeks it will be gen
eral all over the state. Considerable
barley and rye have been threshed al
ready.
According to the statements of
grain men. the wheat as a whole will
not grade up as high as usual this
year in North Dakota. There are
some places where there will be fine
yields and good grades. and other
spots will be very DOR. Most of the
wheat received here so far has come
IN from the Minnesota Point.
Poor Grades.
reports from Anamoose and other
points IN h western part of the state
show that the crops are rather poor
In that section. Threshing has COM
n on different farms and the
yield. as we'll as grade, is far below
even the latest estimates. Marquis
wheat yielded eight bushels with a
stand promised Of from rs to 80
OuSiiSiS PoI acre. Inc grace is NO.. i
Northern. Hard wheat yields from S
to z bushels with a stand good enough
for from 10 to 25 bushels per acre.
The grade is No. 8 with heavy dock
age. The winter rye yields fair, from
IL to 20 bushels per acre and is of
a good quality. Oats are also fair.
Good Crop.
That Grand Forks county taken as
a whole will have a slightly better
crop than last yea is the belief of
many we'll known farmers and grain
dealers. Early spring wheat yields
are very satisfactory, but the later
crop has been damaged considerably
by the heat. Cutting operations will
be completed in the county by to-
night with the exception of fax. Con-
siderable of this crop has been cut
also.
Water Scarce.
Owners of threshing rigs in the vi
entity of Langdon are worrying over
the scarcity of water. There has been
very little rain in, that locality this
summer and as a result many wells
have gone dry. Well diggers are now
in demand and will have many Jobs
to complete before threshing gets well
started.

The first round of the action insti-

permanent pending the outcome Of
the main litigation.
A temporary injunction in the mat
ter was granted by Judge Cooley and
Assistant Attorney General John
Carmody is expected to appear for the
state.
The main issue OF the cas which is
the application of the oil company to
have the present inspection law set
aside on the ground that the fee of II
cents for the inspection of each ship
ment is ~exorbitant. and constitutes
a tax on interstate commerce. will
probably be heard in the district court
