Wheat opened lower on lower cables with
poor buying. Later the buying was better
and prices advanced slightly, with the in
quiry increasing mostly through the session.
Prices had settled quite gradually, and scalp
ers figured for reaction, and through the
buying, in expectation of 1t, the higher
prices were made. The feeling, while yet
easy, is in favor Of a fair rise later. 1t would
not be strange if there is better buying in an
tcipation. The rise today increased bust
ness considerably. Late cables were stronger

SOUTHWEST sILVERITEs.
A Definite Policy Favored by
White Metal Men.

Ell PAso, Tex. Dec. 17.-In the South
west miners convention today the com
mittee on resolutions, with ex-senator
John H. Reagan, of Texas, as the chair
man, submitted their report. 1t re-
quests the friends of silver to have
definite policy in view, and that they
should labor to secure the free coinage
of silver and seek for the repeal of the
requirements to purchase silver bullion
and issue treasury notes thereon,
secure the reopening of the minis of the
United Estates to equally unrestricted
coinage of gold and silver into dollars of
the present standard, these gold and
silver dollars to be exactly equivalent
to legal tender units of account in the
United States.
The resolutions concluded by demand
ing of the congress of the United States
the mining property be exempt from the
provisions of law which prohibits the
investment of foreign capital in real
estate property in the territories. The
resolutions were adopted amid ire
mendous applause, and the congress

Facts on Dredging.

In regard to the main subject, Gen.
o. NJ. Poe's report. published some
weeks ago, is to the point. From a
depth of nine and a half feet a
course Of sixteen feet has been OBJ
tanned by dredging, and this deepening
was followed by great increase of
traffic which. now cries for the twenty
one feet depth. Gen. Poe says that
dredging should be done in six places
in the following order: Sailors En-
campment, st. Clair flats. Crosse Point
flats, mouth of the Detroit. at the foot
of Lake Huron and the shoals near
Round island. Further, Gen. Poe says
that all this can be done at a cost of

ject are daily growing in numbers anu
they Will rest satisfied for the time in
the belief that the twenty-one-fOot

DETROIT, Dec. 1.-THE deep water
ways convention which convened in
the Light Infantry armory this morn
idg is an assemblage of distinguished
men, which promises to take an impor-
tant place in the history of the country,
even if it only makes one step in the di-
rectiOn of the ultimate object of the
convention-that of making seaports of
the cities OF the great lakes. In COM
municatiOn to the board of trade of De-
trOit, July IA, 1891. Congressman j. Lo-
gan Chapman was the first to propose
this convention, and he outlined the
subjects which, in his opinion, should
have the attention of the delegates. To
the daring scheme of linking the lakes
and the Atlantic ocean, he gave more
space than to all the others combined.
Upon the receipt of Congressman
Chipmans letter, the board of trade ap-
preached the Merchants and Manufact-
urers' exchange and the Vessel Owners
association. The result was a circular
letter to the commercial bodies of lake
cities, inviting cooperation. This was
heartily given, and shortly after a for
NAL call was issued for the gathering,
which assembled this morning. The
call recites that the work of the conven-
ton will be ''tO consider questions relat-
ing to much-needed improvements IN
the channels of water communication
through our great lakes, making twenty
and tweDty-one feet the minimum
depths throughout their entire length a.

the most feasible route for connecting
these lakes with tidewater by deep
