To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
In the editorial columns OF the Journal to-
day l see you have made SOM comment on
the action recently taken by the New York
Philatelic Society concerning the issue OF
postage stamps by the Cuban rebels. Any
one who thinks that the action OF American
philatelists will not have effect in this mat
Ter Is very much mistaken. Stamp collectors
number among their ranks thousands Of
bankers, lawyers and others of influence,
among them being y. f. Seebech. of the
Hamilton Bank Note Company, OF New York.
The philatelisrs OF the world. aided by the
S. s. :. 5. Society for the Super
vision OF Speculative Stamps), have al.
ready put down the issue of unnecessary
stamps In Honduras and in other Censral
American countries. and by their own efforts
can put doNn the Cuban stamp. Already our
catalogues list speculative stamps separately
from the regular issue. tSee Scott's fifty
sixth catalogue.) Indiana papars should NOT
be too ready to ~criticise stamp collectors. for
the Hoosier State herself has a great many
students OF phflately. III. 4. w.

CHICAGO, March 24-The wheat market
to-day has been firm, one feature being the
absence of the big selling in blank. The
general conditions are unchanged. 1t is use
less for us to shut our eyes to the cash
demand for interior mills, the small stocks
at Buffalo and New York. with the uncer-
tainty of the coming crop. California al
ready sounds the alarm OF hot winds and
want of moisture. That is but a straw
showing how the wind may blow and it
car only blow one way. Until we get more
liberal supplies from the winter wheat
States and that is required, wheat on its
merits from a foreign or domestic stand
point is worth all it is selling for: and
unless we have an exceptionally good sea-
son and that soon, higher prices are not
far off.
Corn opened lower on free selling orders
both from outside and from one of the
local spectators. Offerings were absorbed
by scattering shorts and holders of puts.
Trade fair without much change in price.
Oats We're steady. a little lower in prices.
Shorts were free buyers. Trade was light.
Provisions opened lower. The market re-
ceived very little support till lowest prices
of the day were reached, when all of the
offerings were taken by brokers and local
scalpers. The buying was mostly in the
way of covering shorts.
