The Rise In wheat.


the present high price of wheat is
only temporary affair caused by a
short crop all over the world, and
that the great cereal will soon drop
back to the old rut. This in the
opinion of experts is an erroneous
idea; and while it is true that the ex-
treme figures of the recent rise can
not be maintained in face of the ever
increasing wheat area, yet fair prices
may confidently be looked forward to
for some years to come.
Drought was not the only feature
Of the recent rise. The low price
which prevailed several caused much
OF it to be fed to stock and otherwise
consumed with the result that the
worlds surplus, which was over three
hundred million bushels a few years
ago, had fallen to seventy millions
this year and will be entirely wiped
out before next season opens.
Another fact which will help main.
tain the price of wheat is the great
industrial and business revival in this
country, which will enable millions
of laboring men to become more lib
eral purchasers Of food products and
thus cause a great increase in our
home market. This will be more
permanent help to our American
wheat raisers than any of the fore.
going causes.
And last but not least among the
reasons for the advance is the fact
that all the wheat exporting coun-
tries are coming over to the sound
system of finance. and thus shutting
off tho opportunity, which the
European nations have heretofore en-
ioyed, of paying for their wheat sup
plies in a cheap metal.
Summing up all the reasons for
the great rise in the price of wheat
the London Spectator, one of the
best English authorities, in a recent
issue says:
1T is evident that, even if dollar
wheat has not come to stay, the price
is likely to range at or about level
well above the figure which has re
Gently driven the farming elasaes of
all countries to desperate demands
for government assistance"
This admission coming fyom a
country which is interested in holding
the price OF wheat down, shows Shat
there is small prospect of the market
returning to the old rut forsome years.

VIEW COAST INDUSTRY.
Branch of the largest Bag Factory
in the World to Be Built in
This City.

OMAHA, NEBR., Sept. 29.-The Bemis
Bros. Bag Company, the largest bag
manufacturing concern in the world, with
factories al Omaha, st. Louis, Minneap-
oils. West Superior and New Orleans, has
decided to reach out and enter the Pacific
Coast next spring.
At that time the company will open a
factory in San Francisco. This morning,
in speaking OF the decision to esta bli5h a
bag factory on the Pacific Coast, NJ. c..
Peters, local manager OF the Bemis
Brothers Bag Company, said:
"Plans lave been completed whereby
we will open a factory at San Francisco
for The manufacture OF all kinds of bags
At the start the plant will give
employment to not less than 100
persons, which mum DER will ndoubtedy
be increased very materially as the work
progresses The Pacific Coast country uses
annually about .. 900, 0u0 jute bags, of
different sizes. all of which, with the ex-
ception OF about 100000, come from
India.
Under the provisions of the Wilson
tariff law we could not com pete with the
cheap labor of Asia and consequently were
unable to manufacture on The Pacific
Coast.
The Mckinley law passed at the last
session # Congress has afforded protec-
tIon to American labor, and now we feel
justified in branching cut and esta blish-
ing this new factory.
For 4 time we shall rent buildings in
San Francisco, but eventually we expect
10 build and put in as com plete a plant as
there is in the world"

They Have Quit the Central

Temporarily.

NEW YORK n. Y, Sept. 29.-Collis 7.
Huntington, with his familiar little black
cap on his head sat in his busy office at 80
Wall street this afternoon signing certit-
Gates one by one, when he was asked
regarding his reported resignation from
the directorate of the Central Pacific; also
as to facts relating to the resignation OF j.
Z. Gates from the directorate OF the
Central Pacific. Mr.. Gates has been pre-
viously seen.
II expect if it is charged we resigned
and other persons have been sub tituted
in the directorate of the company, said
Mr.. Gates to the correspondent OF IHE
CALL THAT we might as we'll let it 90 at
that and say nothing. If we resigned the
minutes of the meeting will say so, and
they are in San Francisco. Any one in
California who wants to know can 60
there and look at the record of toe meet
ing. But this meeting was not on August
10. Seriously speaking, we did resign.
But it was a temporary thing.

tary there, and Mr.. kirkpatrick, who lives
in San Francisco, were substituted.
"lt was done simply as matter of form
and has no special significance. L SUP
pose We will be substituted again. That 5
the way it has always been heretofore
when the like occurred"
Mr.. Gates said that was practically the
whole story of the resignation. Mr.. Hunt
ineton was in a pleasant frame of mind as
he attochei his name to sheet after sheet
of the stock. He said
Sometimes out there, do you know, we
have to have full board to transac ct GER
tain kinds OF business. The constitution
requires that. Well, ! couldn't always be
there, neither could Mr. Gates. l can I
go out to San Francisco every three o.
four months, so L leave my power OF at
torney there.
ut is in the hands of one of our law
yers, and when occasion requires my
resignation IS put in and some body else
is elected ten porarily to act. Then later
usually the former director Is reinstated.
l do not know whether it was done in this
case this time or not. | never inquired,
end don't care whether it was or not. l
think at the time of the meeting alluded
to l was over in London. That is all the
significance there is to the resignation of
both myself and Mr.. Gates"
Mr.. Huntington said he had so much to
do to attend to his present multitudinous
affairs that he had lately launched no new
ventures.

DICTATOR 8ARRI0S IN PERIL.
In Great Danger of Capture BY tSs
Re6eLs-CM1e Threatened With
Serious Trouble.

NEW YORK, n. Y, Sept. ga special
to the Herald from San Salvador says:
information has reached here to the Ell
feet that a new revolutionary outbreak has
occurred in JereZ, Guatemala.
This movement is headed By Jose Leon
Castillo. who, like General frospero Mo-
rales. was a candidate for President to
succeed President Barrios. Jerez is in one
of the eastern departments. where Castillo
has been working since the revolution
began in the west to rouse the people to
rebellion.
with fighting now in the east, west ana
southwest, the danger to Dictator BarrIos
is very great If the rebels are victorious
his chances for escape are very small
NEW YORK, n. Y, Sept. ga special
from Washington says: Apprehenslve of
possible danger to American interests at
Champerico, Guatemala, as result OF the
revolution, the Navy Department tele-
graphed instructions this afternoon to the
commanding officer of the Alert, direct
ing him to proceed to that point after
touching at Ocos, in northwestern Guate-
mala.
The Alert is now at Acapulco and is ex-
pected 10 leave tonight for Ocos, 400
miles distant. She will arrive at that
point by Saturday at theIatest, and after
remaining LDeT6 d SuOIt lAAS VIII ~ "
Cham e1ico, 100 miles away.
She will cruise between these two
points, looking out for American inter-
ests.
A special from Valparaiso, Chile, to the
Herald says: despite denials rumor IS
persistently circulated in Valparaiso, on
the authority of those who are presum-
ably in a position to know, that Chile Is
on the eve of serious international troubles
with Argentina and Peru.
1t is stated here that Argentina, Peru
and Bolivia have been secretly negotiating
a treaty, which is believed to be hostile to
Chile 1t is also asserted that Chilean
dipomatists, hearing of the negotiations
against Chile, made certain representa-
tions to Bolivia which resulted in t. at
country Withdrawing from the proposed
agreement.
The Chilean navy has been placed I'M
der secret orders and is ready to sail at
moments notice. Chile is also holding her
troops in readiness.
The newspapers here on apparently
good authority formally declare the
rumors of an impending conflict COM
pleteiy groundless. But the news comes
from Santiago stating that L. Ley,
leading organ of the Chilean Radical
press, which thus far has always been
well informed announces that the TumO-
has the color of truth. In its clifton to-
morrow La Ley will publish the details of
negotiations between Argentina and Peru,
looking TO q union AGAINST Chile.
