'Wheat In Minnesota in the rain.
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, July 28.
ae rather serious news came in this morning
(,'of nature to make wheat firm. The tact that
iff lacked full verification killed it. There wan
severe storm which was particularly bad near
iVrailmor. Reports of damage done were re
inffyed, but later advice* toned them down.
-Chicago sent it out to the country that the Van
'jjpuiea-Harrington company had estimated South
Dakota's crop at 22,000,000 bu spring wheat
'^snd 19,000,000 bu macaroni. This might easily
ijiave Jifted the market a cent or two, hut it
packed the most Important elementconfirmation
the Van Dusen-Harrington offices, the coin
Ypany refusing to stand for l\, and the men who
lve attention to each matters said no such
Report hail been Issued. The weather northwest
Vwas wet, not a bad thing. The Duluth Commei
Scial Record hsid a summary showing damage
Crom hot dry weather, but the rains since its
&ssue have changed the situation. Fargo had a
[rain all day yesterday and thru the night, but
wras clear this morning, and it was raining
Mthls morning at St. Cloud.
I The corn market felt the reassurance that fol
lowed rain. Dubuque and Davenport had a
Swatting down, Des Moines got .24, Omaha .12,
Efiioux City .02, Charles City 1.76, Dodge City .22
f^ind Springfield, Mo., .20. It was just enough to
fcatop the reports of corn firing and make the
Mnarket quieter. This affected wheat, which had
ncympathued with the corn nervousness. Men
Fjdota, 111., the point reporting corn firing yes
l^erday, bad a rain, and everything was all right
('there today.
Secretary Coburn of Kansas says reports from
(eleven counties shoi? as high as 58 bushels of
{(wheat to the acre, and most of them an aver
age. Wet weather has done

CiER MILLS HAVE A GOOD
SHIPMENTS IN-CREASING.
Altho the big companies did not make the
-ueral situation any better the smaller mills
ported the best day of the season yesterday
and another good run of business today. Ship
ments are creeping up over the 60,000 line and
the trade appears to be working into a good
usii*s very gradually. While disappointment
IJIS heard over the apathy of the buyers and it
la eeld that the winter wheat mills are getting
Lhe best of the business going, there is enough
LHoing here to keep the capacity fairly active,

ACCOMMODATING.
Harper's Magazine.
"Speaking of accommodating hotel
clerks,'' remarked a traveler,'' the best
I ever saw was in a certain Maine town
I reached the hotel late in the evening.
Just before I retired I heard a
scampering under the bed and saw a
couple of large rats just escaping. I
complained at the office. The clerk
was as serene as a summer breeze.
I'll fix that all right, sir,' he
said. 'Front! Take a cat up to
room 23 at once.'
THE BETTER SORT.
Witzblatt.
"Here's a cigar which I reserved
specially for you."
"Well, do you know, I would rather
have one you had specially reserved
for yourself."
