Scarcity of Sailors.

San Francisco, Sept. 30.-Over 80
vessels have finished loading wheat in
San Francisco this month, and the mat
ter OF securing sailors for them has re-
solved itself into a serious problem.
whats the good of charter to
vessel when captain cannot produce
sailors to man her?' was a remark
made by a disgusted British skipper
yesterday. MANY good ship is load
ed and ready to sail, but is compelled
to swing at her anchor because the
master cannot procure men at the rul-
ing rate. 1t will come to split up
pretty soon, and the sailors wages will
advance, contract or no contract"
The situation is about as follows:
Nearly all the British ships in port are
under contract to certain shipping mas
ters. These latter have agreed to sup
ply men all the year around whenever
required, and at no time are wages to
exceed $50 per month and $40 advance.
At the present time the rate in Port
land and on Puget sound is $50 a
month and $50 advance, consequently
sailors in this port will not ship at the
lower rate. At the present time the
ships Boutwell,, st. Mirren, Dalgonar,
Glencaird, Kensington, Largiemore,
Leicester Castle and Matterhorn, and
the barks Cloncaird, Forfarkshire and
Iverlochy are lying in the stream
awaiting crews. Some Of them are at
an expense of $3.50 day, and at that
rate will soon eat up the etxra wages
demanded by the men.

Aid From tho Canadian Pacific.

Montreal, Oct. At is announced
That the Canadian Pacific Company in
tends without delay to extend the rail-
road into Rossland, B. c., and that
capitalists closely identified with the
railway company have partly completed
arrangements for the erection of large
melter on the Columbia river, which
will treat the Rossland ores practically
at cost, and that the shipping mines
will be connected with the smelter by
an aerial tramway. The Canadian
Pacific also proposes adopting similar
methods in the SLOGAN country.

Sold Her Husband.

St. Louis, Oct. 4.-According to the
Post-Dispatch, John A. Truitt, con.
ductor on the Northern Central electric
street-car line, was sold by his wife fol-
"a, 900 to woman who declares that
she loves the man more than his wife
does. The deal was the sequel to the
following remarkable statement made
to Mrs. Truitt by a Mrs. Stevens, who
lives in this city with her father:
"Mrs. Truitt: love your husband.
and want him. l have travelled the
world over. and he is the first man
sver loved. will give you $4, 600 cash
for him if you will give him up"
Truitt, who is the father of -four
children, seems to agree to the deal.
It is stated that last Tuesday Mrs.
Truitt, knowing that her husband loved
another, attempted to take her life by
uwallowing a big dose Of morphine.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Downing, Hopkins y Company's Review
of Trade.

a low range OF values for wheat has
been established during the week as the
result of diminished speculation, in
creased receipts and accommodating
stocks, the market closing weak under
these conditions, with still lower ten
dency. Clearances continue large.
Export sales have been only moderate,
and there seems to be a pause in the
European demand. The diminished
volume OF speculation is probably tho
weakest feature in the market at pres
ent, as the trade generally have accept
ed as u fact that Europe wants all the
surplus food products that we have to
spare. The presence OF a so-called
bull clique" has been largely respon-
sible for the decreased trade and done
much to check the advance. The in
creasing stocks would not prove sufii-
cient to depress values, but in conjunc-
tion with the lessened export demand
and absence OF speculation the current
of the market has been turned and I'M
til conditions are changed lower range
of values is to be expected temporarily.
Corn values nave suffered severe
decline, due in part to local speculative
conditions. The salient points of
weakness in the market, however, have
been the large receipts, enormous stocks
and the insufficiency of the cash de-
mand. The forward movement is now
falling off. Farmers have practically
ceased selling. The cash demand is
also improving and stronger market is
probable next week. Crop prospects
are unfavorable. Serious damage has
occurred since the last government re-
port was compiled, and the next report
will show a very large decrease in the
estimated yield. Present values are
below the average for years past and in
vite speculative buying. The shortage
in the worlds wheat crop would in it.
self warrant better values for corn, but
in connection with the serious shortage
in the potato crop, estimated at
! 1000, ,000,0 900 bushels, it is apparent
that corn will be in greater export de-
mand than ever before. We regard
present weakness as but temporary, and
certain to be followed by much higher
values.

New Orleans, Sept. 30.-The yellow
fever situation here continues exasper-
atingly the same. A daily average of
lS to 20 new cases and deaths has
kept up. But, while there is no sign of
an epidemical visitation, the slow prog
ress of the disease puts obstacles daily
in the way OF the merchant public, who
are anxious to again resume trade with
the surrounding country. The record
today was not unlike that of many
other days, in that it showed death
through sheer neglect of the patient.
There have been 21 cases up to date
having fatal termination. The facts
are incontrovertible that at least one
half DIED through neglect or lack of
attention. Business is showing feeble
signs Of revival, and the railroads are
putting forward superhuman efforts to
secure a modification of the quarantine
regulations. DR.. Oliphant's trip up
the road tomorrow, at the invitation of
the Southern Pacific Company, with a
view to securing modification of the
existing quarantine, will settle it
whether trade is to stagnate for several
weeks longer or whether it is partially
to be resumed at once.
Today two deaths were reported.
There have been a total of III cases
to date. A number of patients were
discharged today.
T. E. Gill, proprietor of the Biloxi
Manufacturing Company, died this
morning at Biloxi.
