on the san Franeisco Market.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. l19.--Under strong
ncws from other parts OF the world the
local wheat market recovered at the open
ing this morning from tie setback at SAT-
urday's close and went higher than before
this year. At 9O5 May option opened at
Sl.55Ih per GENITAL and rose to Si.5s, but
toward the close OF the call there was a
decline to Sl56%. December opened at
sl.55 and all the sales we're at that price.
The total transactions M both options at
this session were 100000 centals. Notwith-
standing the marked advance over the high
est price OF last Saturday, amounting to
ca cents per Genital for May and 4 cents
for December, there vss less excitement
among dealers. for they seemed to have
become used to the rise and took 1t moro
stoldly than before. The activity OF the
market was great. About 100000 centals
changed hands In all sizsd lots at the 9:15
session.
At 1880 there was a setback in prices
at the opening, but the market had a par
tial recovery from It. December opened at
Sl.52, rose to S1.54k, declined to S1.53ia
and closed at s153&. May opened at sl.54ls,
rebounded to s1.57h andIclosed at s1.56M
At 11:15 prices were more firmly sus-
tanned, but failed to get back to the highest
points of the morning December opened
at s1.54ss, declined to S1.54, recovered to
N.54A and closed at sl.54 May opened
Ut Sl'ooh2 rose 10 Sl.bi r., dropped to 81 .54A

was done, California selling at 30 shil-
lings per quarter. Maize and barley were
also in brisk demand. The rise appears to
be due to the sales OF American wheat for
india, which frightened the spectators a
good deal. Cautious observers think the
rise OF shillings per quarter for the week
inlly discounts the effect Of the abnormal
Indian demand.

PHILIPPINE REVOLT IS BIG
Rebellion Much More Serious Than Has
Been Generally Recognized.
REBELS WRITE THEIR oATHs IN BLOOD
woman Disclosed the Original Plot ot
the Natives In the Confessional
and the Priest DivuIged
the Secret.

SAN FANCISCO, Oct 19-Advices by
the steamer Peru from Singapore and
Hong Kong state that up to September %
the rebellion in the Philippine islands Is
much more serious than has been gener-
ally recognized. 1t is said that the reports
OF revolutionlst defeats sent out by Span
ish officers have been greatly exaggerated,
and that so far the rebels have more than
held their own in the struggle for indie
pendence 1t is stated that the revolution
Is now beyond the control of the Span
isb authorities, and that unless reinforce
ments arc sent 10 Manila Immediately the
Spanish forces are in danger Of final de-
feat. The rebels now hold the province
of Cavite. are wei; organized and have 5000
rifles There are many natives among the
Spanish troops eBd the officers are afraid
to take native regiments into the interior
because their loyalty Is doubted
The Hong Kong Press says editorially
that there is no longer room for the least
doubt that affairs in the Philippines will
in short time assume the proportions OF
the Cuban rebellion. The natives are deter
mined. AS each rebel signs an agreement
he writes his name on his arm with blood
and swears vengeance against the Span
iards. The story of the original plans for
striking the blow is a most serious one.
For long time the natives have been con-
spring to overturn the government. and 1t
was finally decided to make a strong at
tack on the 18th of July. Governor Gen
eral Blanco was to have been murdered by
one OF the natives on that day and II was
arranged to suddenly swoop upon the body
OF officials who attended the funeral, kill
as many possible, then ransack the town
of Manila and take entire possession OF the
place. IL is due TO a woman that the dia-
bolical plot was discovered In the confess
sional she disclosed the plot to the priest
who divulged the secret. The arrest and
imprisonment OF many natives plainly in
dictated that the priests were cognizant of
the arrangements. and then, toward the
end of August, the fighting commenced In
real earnest. From that time up to the
middle OF September, the date of the latest
news, there were repeated bloody conflicts
between the government forces and the ma
tives.
The Manila correspondent, under date Of
September 2, says that the Spanish troops
defeated the rebels on August 81. The
writer sR.s:
Eight rebels killed at St. Mesa; counted
six or eight at San Juan. besides those
on the Spanish side. The bodies (rebels)
are being left out unbured to rot. Over

I'm Once Again.

Tn Once Again.
LONDON Oct. 20.-The Berlin corre-
spondent of the Times telegraphs: Baron Won
Wlssmann resigns the governorship OF East
Africa on account OF Ill health and he will
probably be provided with a post at home.
At the autumn session of the colonial
council today DR.. Kayser, chief of the Ger
man colonial department. delivered his fare
we'll address, in the course of which he
reviewed the German colonial history since
he has held the office. He denied the rumor
| that he resigned owing to the attacks Of
| The Peters party, but he said II was an
| open question whether the colonial policy
would ever bring advantage or blessing to
| Germany His own rich fund of enthusi-
lsm had been exhausted in a continual
| struggle against obstacles In the Reichs-
tag against selfish opponents and in eX-
haustng labors which had long since out
grown his physical powers. DR.. Kayser
then described the prosecutions he had en-
dured at the hands OF the Peters faction.
Or Peters was incensed at being passed
over for Baron Wlssmann for the governor
ship of East Africa" said Dr. Kayser.
Herr Arndt visited me on the eve of Baron
Wlssmann's appointment and made a yelled
threat of persecution unless DR.. Carl Peters
was appointed"
Dr. Kayser predicted that revelations
would soon be made which would clear the
| atmosphere of the scandal and intrigue in
German colonial affairs. He hoped that
eventually the colonies would be self-sup-
porting and would justify the dreams of
the colonial enthusiasm.
A dispatch to the Morning Post from
Berlin says there are rumors of another
| change in the colonial administration in
volving an increase OF 5000 900 marks in
the imperial subsidy.
