THE DEMAND FOR WHEAT.
Prices Bound to Rise Again, Think
English Factors.

LONDON. October H.-In an article
on the demand for wheat and the supply
of that cereal the Daily Telegraph says:
The stock of foreign wheat at the prin-
cipal British ports It is said, would not
suffice TO feed the country for fortnight
The slight fall in American exchanges
on Saturday gave the English markets
a downward tendency, but it IS the opin-
ion OF one of the best-known corn
factors in Market Lane that American
wheat will speedily rise with a bang,
and that by Christmas prices viii be
much further enhanced. During the re-
cent excitement speculation In England
and America was carried beyond rea-
sonable bounds but in the market the
opinion Is expressed that at least a pro-
portion OF the rise win be retained, and
that the era Of low prices is for the time
being ended.
The Evening Standard says that the
tendency in wheat is for higher prices,
adding: The failure in India will divert
Californian and Australian wheat from
Europe there. Only the tremendous ef-
forts i'm the United States to hurry wheat
across the Atlantic in exchange for gold
prevented a much greater increase in
prices, and when the inrush is past there
will be a further rise.

WASHINGTON, October Ex-senator
Marion Butler, chairman Of the Populist
National Committee, tonight gave out
the following:
"Mr. Watson's letter was received
Saturday night. It had been detained in
the post-office for want of sufficient post
age. and l had not been notified by the
post-ohice authorities OF course, l eX-
pected Mr. Watson to give his letter to
the public in the usual way as soon as ne
had IL ready. At a recent meeting Of our
Executive Committee at Chicago Mr..
Washburn was sent by our committee to
Thomson, Ca, to confer with Mr.. Wat
son
"On last Monday, October 18th, I re-
ceived telegram from Mr.. Washburn,
sent while he was at Mr. Watson's home
at Thomson Ga, asking me not to pub
lish Mr.. Watson's letter until l heard
from him, but that was before / had re-
ceived the letter. In the mean time MI
Washburn went TO Nashville, Tenn, on
last Saturday for another conference with
Mr.. Watson. / wired Mr.. Washburn, who
he had n second conference with Mr..
Watson, that the letter had been received.
Mr.. Washburn wired me in reply, asking
me not to publish the letter at present.
In the mean time. / have wired to Mr..
Watson. urging the advisability of making
at least one important change in his let
ter. II he authorizes this change, l will
give out the letter Otherwise he must
take the responsibility Of publishing it
himself.

POsT-OFFTCB EXPLANATION.
WASHINGTON, October N.-Assistant-
Postmaster Wilson said tonight concern
ing the lost letter of Hon. Thomas f..
Watson's. which was addressed to Sena-
tor Butler:
"All the mail for Senators and Repre-
sentatives is sent either 10 the Senate or
House post-ofIice. As soon as received
by us It is sent down into the basement
OF the post-ofice building, where a num-
ber Of men are employed who do nothing
else but handle the congressional mail
They send IT to the Capitol, and from
there It is delivered.
Had the letter been handled by our
carriers is would simply be preposterous
to say that it could have been held for
eight days. 1t could not; that is simply
all there is Of 1t. 1 do not know the
custom followed at the Senate post
office"

A Chorus of "Vives." ;"

Mile. Lucie Faure resembles her ia
ther, not only in appearance, but also in
her hatred of publicity and show, be-
sides which she affects simplicity and
neatness in dress which gives her quite
an English appearance. The tickle Pa
risians (who tolerate the most outre of
cycling costumes, by the way) complain
that she dresses too much like man.
Unlike other girls of her age and po-
sition, Mile. Faure is to be seen nearly
every afternoon on the boulevard alone,
and the fact that she looks so English
gave rise to an amusing incident the
other day. An irrepressible gamin, not
recognizing in the tall and tailor gown
ed young woman the presidents daugh-
ter, greeted her with lively grimace
and mocking shout of 'Vive l'Angle-
terrell" Nothing daunted, but with
somewhat heightened color Mile. Faure
responded, "Vive la Francer whereup-

found bow, "Vive lie president! !'-Lon-
