the collapse and GEORGE w. M'NEAR.
has for years been known as the grain
king of California. He is the man who
engineered the recent corner, though he
denies the corner and denies even that
he speculates, claiming that he is en-
gagged in an entirely legitimate business.
Be that as it may, he certainly man
aged to charter three-fourths of the ves-
sells available during the season for the
shipment of grain from California, and
thus made himself practically the dicta-
tor of the price at which farmers must
sell their wheat. Nobody wants to buy
wheat that cannot be shipped, and in
San Francisco the man who controls the
shipping controls the price. The finan-
cial stringency and the low price of
wheat elsewhere helped McNear out.
Farmers could not borrow enough money
ON their wheat to buy bags to ship it IN.
McNear saw all this, and knowing the
whereabouts and engagements Of wheat
ships understood that tonnage would
control wheat; hence the corner.
Mr.. McNear is by birth Scotchman.
He is short, sturdy and red faced, with
solid looking head and square shoul-
ders. He began life as small commits
sion merchant in Petaluma, Cal, han
ding farm produce. Along in the six
ties he started in the grain business il.
San Francisco, and despite some heavy
losses made great deal of money. He
is not brilliant operator, working very
cautiously and with great secretiveness.
Nobody is ever aware of what he is
about until his schemes are consum-
mated

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 1.-THE

this campaign, because of the issues in

really in a state of transition from Re-
publicanism to Democracy, has attract
ed interest here and the merits OF the
several Democratic candidates are be-
ing considered.
Larry Neal is believed to be the
strongest man the Democrats can place
against Mckinley. Walter b. Richie,
of Lima, since he stands well
with the younger element, is said
to be In the lead, and there
are those who assert that Judge Samuel
f. Hunt is not out Of it yet. A return

HONOLULU, June 1S.-For the first

islands the Hawaiian national flag was
floated over the Palace on June 2. The
formal occupation of the Palace by the
Provisional Government and raising the
national emblem over 1t are regarded
by the annexationists generally and by
many OF the natives as final blow TO
monarchy. The building was formally
dedicated to its new uses on June 5th
with little ceremony, in which troops,
the government band and otli-
cials participated. The proyi-
slonal government June 3, paid to
Claus Spreckels sos, 900 owed to him,
and there is feeling OF relief among
the officials that the government is no
longer under obligations to him.
Spreckels denies that he was actuated
by a desire to enbarass the govern
ment by demanding the return OF his
money. On June 6, Minister and Mrs.
Blount left for a short visit TO Main
and though they will be gene only until
June 11th, rumors of impending trouble
began to arise before the steamer bear
ing Peace Maker" as Mr.. Blount is

to have received reliable information
that the provisional government had de-
cided to deport the ex-queen on the
steamer City Of Peking, due from China

such attempt, and men were placed on
guard at the ex-Queen's residence TO

terview with the Pope. which he was re-
ported TO have had, and that having had
the interview be would soon re-
turn to New York. DR.. Burtsell
a lso said DR.. McGlynn would be given a
parish IL he desired one. He did not visit
The Pope as a penitent asking pardon, but
as priest in good standing, and as such
was received by Leo. DR.. Burtsell fur
ther said that DR.. McGlynn was never
tried and condemned according TO the form
OF procedure by the church, and for that
reason Mgr. Satolli restyren him without
inflicting any peusnce. AT the same time
DR.. McGlynn promised 10 visit the Pope,
has done so, has been well received, and
now is coming home.
