CHICAGO, Aug. There was an uneasy
wheat market today. 1t sold up 1kc early.
on rainy weather, then turned weak and
closed at 5Sl2c for September, at sc below
Friday. Corn and oats each lost trihe
of their previous values, and provisions
gained a little. The feeling manifested was
rather easy and the final figures showed a
loss of &c. The steadiness early was attri-
Duted largely to the wet weather in most of
the winter wheat states. Exports for the
week from both coasts made very fair,
showing. Country acceptances were again
small and Insignificant and st. Louis strong
and higher. imparting some strength to the
situation. Argentine shipments were larger
than last week, but still small. The small.
trade and the absence Of foreign advices
owing to the bank holiday in England was,
rather against the price, and then local ar
rivals rather exceeded the estimates Nofthot
western receipts, too, showed a moderate
increase. Crop reports were not very fav-
orable from the Northwest The local out
inspection moderate and board clearing

There was not much of trade in corn,

The late heavy lake engagements small ac-

Oats were stronger early, but weakened
later. The close, however, was at about the
same to shade over yesterdays. May be-
ing the strongest. The best selling was Of

was taken in scattered lots. There was an
advance of AGasc over yesterdays close at
the start, but it reacted 14@asc on predic-
tons OF receipts for Monday, 400 cars, against

Provisions were very firm considering the
weakness OF the grain markets. Some out
side orders to buy were met by sales from
the packers. The whole of the days ad-

WAS THERE A DEALT
A Prominent Pop Says SewaI Was
to Withdraw.

ATLANTA. Ca, Aug, Hon. w.
L. Peek, who ran for governor on the
Populist ticket in 1892, and headed the
Georgia delegation at St. Louis, makes
a significant statement to the Atlanta
Journal today. 1t is as follows:
"Conwers Ca. Aug. L. 1896. To the At
lanta Journal: 1t was understood with the
Democrats that If the Popul,sts would nominate
Mr. Bryan for president and Southern Pop
ulist for vice president Mr.. Sewall would re-
tire from the race. or in other words. that he
(Mr SewalD would be taken down, and that
our candidate for vice president should be
this understanding, Mr.. Watson was unani-
mously nominated. Every state in the union
supported him except South Carolina, and 1t
was not represented. This was the broad
ground on which the Democrats and Populists
met. Having been deceived by promises, we
made it a certainty on our part and reversed
the order of business, and nominated the vice
president first. Senator Jones. chairman of
the national Democratic committee was there.
together with many prominent Democrats from
different parts of the United States, urging
this course for the success of financial re-
FORM We did not indorse Mr.. Bryan but
made our platform, and nominated him then
for president by over two-thirds vote. Mr..
Watson's nomination greeted with as long
and loud outbursts of enthusiasm as was Mr..
Bryan's, and / beg to say now that there is
but one course to pursue IL good faith Is to
govern this union of silver forces. viz: Watson
electors must be put up by the Democratic

South, yea, in Georgia. 1t would be an unpar-
donable sin and unfaithfulness on the part of
the Democratic party, and the people will hold
them responsible for the result

doctrines he loved to preach to his fell
low workmen. When he came to his
fortune he did not believe so much in
miners rights as when, with his shirt
off and begrimed with coal dust, he
used the pick in the drifting leads.
For the houses he built for the use of
his workingmen and from which a re-
spectacle income is derived, are very
primitive and unattractive and cheaply
built affairs, all after the same crude
design-a door in the center with
window on each side and lean-to at
the back for a kitchen. One of the
biggest strikes they ever had on the
coast was on account of a difference
he had with his miners in the matter
of wages. Wellington, where the
Dunsmuir properties are situated, is
some six miles from Nanaimo, with
NCrthfield midway between them.
When the place was first settled there
were numbers of Indians at and near
Nanaimo. They were Siwashes of the
Songhese tribe. These Indians are un-
dersized, stoeky-built fellows, lazy but
great fishermen-semi-a mphibious in
deed. The sound Indian turns in his
tees and walks with a curious wad
ding motion, occasioned, so it is said,
by the cramped position his ancestors
have for generations occupied in their
boats. One hears wonderful stories on
Vancouver Island of the incursions
made into their territory by the more
warlike tribes who inhabit the Queen
Charlotte islands these latter
would cross the mountains, which form
the backbone of the island, with their
beats upon their backs, attack their
fishermen cousins in great force, and.
after the battle, sail away, carrying
as trophies a cargo of the heads of
those they had slain in battle And
the talk of Indian golden treasures
rivals the stories told of Capt. Kidd's
buried wealth on Eastern strands.
Whether these stories be true or not,
when the whites settled at Nanaimo
they fortified it against its warlike in
vaders in rude fashion, and built
wooden bastions for the protection of
the early colonists. One of these now
stands in the main street of Nanaimo,
overlooking Departure Bay, and is
pointed out to visitors as a curious
historic relic. j. L.

our back while we were advising the gold
