WANT TO TAX
THEM TOO HIGH
The auctloneera are much agitated
over the effort that is being made to
raise their license from 1160 per year
to $1,000 per year. The advance would
be out of all proportion to the amount
of business that Is done by the auction
eers and those who are In the business
say that they consider that they would
be greatly imposed upon if any such
excessive taxation were to prevail.
The auctioneers say that they will
fight the proposed increase In cost of
license.

CHICAGO, April 17. Th Record-
Herald eays; While New York yesterday
was claiming the speculative advance
had carried the wheat market beyond
any export demand, the West put It
aalea at over H06.000 buahel. Before
the close yesterday St Loul reported
166,000 buahel of wheat sold, and later
In the day raised th total to 466,000
bushela. Duluth reported 240,000 buah
el aold, and the business her was
80.000 bushels. The St Louis business
resulted In that market making th best
advance of any. In Ave days Nw York
ha reported about 1,600.000 buahel

American price had gotten out of Una
Those closest to th export business
understand that New York cannot any
longer gauge the business with th other
side, as it used to. The biggest export
concern in th country Is now at Duluth
and does Its business direct There r
two concerns at Chicago who do more
business by way of the Gulf than any

for oat. Sale were 100,000 bushel
yesterday. There was a sale of 110,000
bushels of standard oats Wednesday and
It Is figured the stock of th standard
Is down to around 200,000 bushels. With
over 400,000 bushels of wheat sold from
the West direct yesterday, there la now
only enough export demand to make the
Armour bull effort much easier than
It was. The foreign buying ha been on
a scale to cause a doubt a to whether
or not the price could not get along
without Armour's support and whether,
if there waa less watching of Armour
and more natural condition. It might
not be a bullish poaitlon without any
leadership. A Berlin cable to Harris
Gates reada: "The condition of growing
rye crop is good, but a good portion of
winter wheat crop was killed and had
to be reseeded with spring wheat or bar
ley." The market early was much In
fluenced by the Broomhall cable,- an
nouncing fierce rains through Franc.
whence there have been complaint of
drought of lata.
Big Borrow Kada,
NEW YORK. April 17. Th Chronlole
says: Speculative comment reflect grow
lng confidence In the outlook for the
stock market. It 1 reported tonight
that the largest Western house In Wall
street has just borrowed $6,000,000 six
months' money at 4H Pr cent Other
large borrowings are also rumored, which
are thought to Indicate a change from
the bear to the bull side by powerful
operators. . There is a growing belief
that with the Improvement In the mone
tary situation the next few weeks will
witness a material rise, the latter hav
ing for Us basis good crops and earn
ings and continued activity in general
business. Conservative houses think In
the meantime stock will be a purchase
on all moderate recessions, including
N. Y. C, Pennsylvania, St. Paul, B. O.,
Atchison, and Missouri Pacific; also the
coalers. It 1 argued that compared
with the Irregular quotation of last
September these and other stocks are
low; that they must appeal to Investors
ea well as to large operator and bank
ing interests, wnose custom It is to puy
big lines of securities after a heavy
shrinkage to hold for a pull on th bull
side.

Concerning the quality of this year's

"The wool Is about the same as It was

Utica.
It was first reported that Miss Cush
man had fallen heir to only about $250
000, but according to an appraisement
made. at L'tlca yesterday her share is
worth twtci' that sum, as considerable

where Mr. Cushman had been making
deposits for years, unknown to any one.
Miss Cufcliman is. connected with the
New Rocln-iie High School, where she
has been Instructor of mathematics for
the last flv- years. Previous to going
to New Hoc hell she lived at Vernon,
near her unole. who took a great liking
to her. but never Intimated that he would
make her an heiress.
A friend said last night that Miss
Cushman would -continue to teach until
the close of the present school term,
when she would go back to Utica to lead
a quiet life.

th head asalatants will not be request
ed to stand a competitive examination
to secur position! or to hold the one
now In their poaaesslon.
A an example th position' of Assis
tant Postmaster of Portland is a classified
one, and the present Incumbent can hold
It unless removed for cause, which will
necessitate investigation by the Civil
Service Commission. Th position of
Deputy District Attorney la not quite as
clear, for while he is classified in on
department In another he Is omitted.
Corns aa a Surpri.
The ruling come a a surprise to
many, and has already been discussed
pro and con by persons Interested In
the personnel of, particularly, th Assis
tant Postmaster.
It ha been long known that Charles
Burckhardt, th present Assistant Post-'
master, has retained his position on the
strength of Jack Matthew, who re
quested Postmaster Bancroft to keep
htm until such time aa another poaitlon
could be found for him. When Mr. Ban
croft secured his appointment, through
the Influence of Congressman William
son, It was 'understood that another
choice of assistant would be made and
that H. C. Smith, First Deputy Clerk,
was th man slated for the job, although
strongly opposed by Mr. Matthews et
at. Notwithstanding, there were forces
In the Republican party superior to the
waning Influence of Mr. Matthew; but
promise wa mad to the latter that
Mr. Burckhardt would be retained "until
another job could be found for him."
Now comes the new Civil Service rule
which seem to indicate that Mr. Burck
hardt can hold hi position during good
behavior, for the reason that he occu
pied the otfic April IS. A clearer opin
ion of the new law will arrive from
Washington within a few days, and
whether it will sustain th opinion of
local politicians remains to be proved,
gomethlng Tary Olaar.
One phase of th matter is very clear,
however, which is that the Collector of
Internal Revenue, Collector of Customs,
District Attorney! Marshal, Postmaster,
Surveyor General and Receiver and Reg
ister of the Land Office will be appoint
ed and confirmed in th Benate in the
same manner that has always obtained,
but the positions of their confidential
first assistants Is not quite so clear.
