CHICAGO ILL.,, July 2s.-Dr. G. c.
O'Donuoll, Of San Francisco, who Is herd
on an antl-Chlnoso mission, lsaccompanlod
by two Chinese lopers, whom he proposes
to exhibit as an Illustration Of tho hor.

of the prevention Of Chinese immigration,

at seems like curious way OF propa-

and will leave no means untried until we

Thore are to-day 900 lopors In San Fran

people como Into the stock market again.
In regard to the prospects OF our balance
OF trade there Is some cause for appre'
honsIon that Chicago will get crazy again,
and indulge once more In the slaughter
of tho goose that lays the golden eggs,
A sudden uniayorablo change IN tho
weather IN Europe created re-
Gently some demand for wheat.
Grain spectators In London ana
Liverpool who had sold wheat short
in anticipation Of excellent crops all over
the world, became alarmed at the unsea-
sonable weather, and fastened to cover
their contracts. As the American crop
is the earliest and the nearest at hand
they began to buy wheat in this county,
and Chicago at once pushed prices up
They have already marked them some
three cents higher and talk OF I'VE cents
more. II they succeed In thoirlniqultous
attempts stop will at once be put TO all
foreign demand, unless the weather DO
comes unusually bad They Will thus
destroy good deal Of the prospect Of an
improving balance of trade and the I'M
portatlon of gold, A representative OF
the well known shipping firm OF Seager
Bros. formulates the present grain move
ment In the following terms.
The shipments of wheat have been In
creasing and are legitimate here, but the
orders are speculative and have been
by weather score. Great Britain had
recently some October weather and al
though the crops have so fur not been In
juriously affected, the British spectators
on the short side Of the market got scared.
This time OF tho year, however, always
engenders what Is called "weather mar
kets" for grain. few days of sunshine
will change everything. In any case the
rush seems to have been great, and Is
likely to slaoken considerably BY the end OF
August, unless prices at the Interior are
brought down. A further advance In
them will put stop to all export de-
mand. About thirty steamers have SO Tar
been chartered for full cargoes OF wheat
from New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
and Newport News, They are almost all
for August loading, and only few for
early September. Frelghts have
advanced from IS. Cd, to is. Cd, or
from 30 cents to / dollar and s cents
per quarter, equal to eight bushels or 4 80
pounds weight, This refers to only the
above named ports, and to shipments by
freight In steamers known as CRAMPS"
whose aggregate "takes' on now about
100000 bushels week to different parts
of Europe, The five regulars take about
100000 bushels more, and Boston and
Montreal will probably take some 200, 900
bushels to Great Britain. New Orleans
does not export any wheat to speak OF
until the cotton crop is ready, The de-
mand for cattle and provisions Is small at
freight considered nominal. The demand
fo7 corn and oats Is always nil at this
season of the year. Shipments of cotton
are active.
The large arrivals of new wheat, which
have already begun at the Atlantic sea-
board, and will hcnceforth rapidly In
crease, ought naturally to keep the price
OF wheat down, and If so, considerably
improve the export trade of the country.
But Chicago spectators can spoil the
bright prospects If they are left to have
things their own way.

An Ex- Governor Arrested for swindling

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 28.-Ex. Governor
Moses, once the Republican Governor OF
South Carolina, and In latter days an al
legged swndler and confidence man, was
arrested by city detective last night.
The arrest was made on requisltion of
the Governor OF Massachusetts, based on
warrant which charges Moses with en-
bezzlement in that State. The prisoner
was found at the house of relatives on
Archer avenue, near Twenty-fourth
street, where he has been stay

taken to Boston at once. During the
last Republican Convention, DR.. Hollis

was the guilty man. What particular Of

The Fort Myers Press says: "Mr. Tay-
Tor Frierson brought home from Key
West two specimens of the fruit OF the
South American guava. 1t is larger
and finer fruit than any OF the varieties
of the guava growing here, and has the
shape and nearly the size of Bartlett
pear. Its flavor is rich, its seeds are
smaller than those of our native guava
and confined TO the inner core fthe fruit
and can be easily separated from the rest
of the pulp. This fruit will evidently be
valuable acquisition here. This is
evidently the Pear guava, of which there
are plenty in the State already. ED. AG-

One of our exchanges speaks in high
terms of the forage plant known as Milo
maize, and urges it's cultivation as being
peculiarly adapted to our requirements
in Florida, OH account of the little mOis-
ture required in its growth. During the
past autumn we saw a'crop of Milo maize
which had been grown in the vicinity of
Atlanta, Ga, and was then being fed to
cattle as ensilage, having been put into a
silo afterit was cut. A great drouth pre-
vailed in that section throughout the
summer, and Mr.. W. 1. Hayward, who
had grown the crop, and who is promi-
nent as an agricultural experimentalist,
assured us that he had cut two crops
and one lighter crop from the first plant
ing in the spring, although only few
light showers had fallen during the peri
cd of growth. The, cattle were very
fond of it, and it is claimed that when
the seed is ripe it is an excellent substi-
tute for corn for human food. We were
much impressed by its capability for
withstanding the drouth in a warm eli
mate, 'and we believe that it will prove
to be an important plant in Florida agri-
culture. Will not some of our farmers
make an experiment with it during the
next summer ?-Spring. EThe so-called
Milo maize is the old time Dourra Millet
