FROM THE OTHER PAPERS.

Although the end of the war is not yet visible through the smoke of battle, general business shows healthy indica. tions of going ahead as if nothing had happened. There is a general disposi- ton among business men to bear their share of the burden by responding to the war tax cheerfully, in the belief that if the war is heartily supported while it lasts it's duration will be the shorter. Everything indicates that Spain will soon be in her last ditch and the Fall may see the rainbow of peace again in the skies.-Commercia Record.

Hon. L. Bradford Prince, Santa Fe, N. NJ.
My Dear Governor: Your letter of
April 23, received, stating that certain
parties in Santa Fe are endeavoring to
start a cannery and evaporating works
for the purpose of using the surplus

that this industry will be established

reasonably expect of us.

at any time fail to give our cooperation
to plant of this kind.
What this company needs in New
Mexico is more people and industries of
all kinds to give them employment.
l hope you are making some headway
with your sugar beet factory. Yours
very truly, PAUL MORTON.

ginning today, the wheat market turned
weak and settled back to yesterdays

May wheat rose 50 cents today, and
closed at $1.5O per bushel, the highest

cagv. When the bears tried cover Letter

bushels of No. red wheat to French
syndicate at $1.47 per bushel. The pit
raiders was stampeded, July rushed up

as speedy as first organized, Admiral
Schley's squadron is probably more able
to meet, on even terms at least, the for
midable Spanish armoured cruisers
which have sailed from Cape Verde for

that Admiral Schley is about to start in
quest of the Spanish squadron.
Important If True.
Chicago, May 5.--A special to the
Journal. from Washington says the fear
that Commodore Dewey may be bottled
up In Manila harbor is gaining ground.
The entrance to Manila bay is through
a channel planted with mines. Com
modore Dewey passed through these in
the night and no opportunity was given
the Spaniards to fire them. Now if he
has not forced the surrender of the city
and gained control of the switch board
used in firing the submerged explosives
an attempt to leave the harbor by any
of the ships composing the Asiatic squad
ron would be met by an attack from the
mines.

Madrid, May S. = Eight thousand
striking miners made tumutous dem
onstration at Murcia, capital of the
province of that name. They shouted
death to thieves" and "Down with
taxes" They attempted to fire the rail-
road depot and other buildings, and
then began a movement toward Garth
agena. A strong force of troops pre-
vented the rioters moving on the port.
| A number of men were wounded. Dis
| turbances are also threatened at Garth
agena, where martial law has been pro-
claimed. Similar scenes occurred at
OviedO and Leon, and other towns where
the factory hands have struck work.
Strikers are parading, demanding cheap
bread and stoning houses. The steps
taken by the authorities have resulted in
restoration of peace at Malaga, where
the British steam yacht, Lady of Glenn
ell was recently stoned and driven out
of the harbor. 1t appears that the
Malaga mob thoughtit was an American
vessel.
Popular Revolution Brewing.
Troops are held in the barracks ready
to march against the mob or revolution
lists. The cavalry and infantry patrol
streets from nightfall to sunrise. All
public buildings are crowded with foot
and mounted police. The chief fear is
of popular revolution, which every
body can see is brewing. If the national
feeling runs too high against Seniors
Sagasta and Moret, who really are in
the most danger, the queen will prob
ably ask Marshal Campos to form gov
ernment for the defense of the mon
archy. The disturbances caused by the
high price and scarcity of food con-
tinued in the provinces today. There
have been frequent conflicts between
the rioters and civil guards, and looting
and shootings are reported from various
points. At Barcelona there has been a
renewed run on the bank by holders of
notes demanding silver.
Exports of Food Products Prohibited.
The bill introduced in the cortes to
prohibit the expectation of corn, -four,
rye, maize, potatoes and fruits, and sup
pressing the duty on the importation OF
those articles is intended as checkmate
to spectators who, owing to the enor-
nous premium on exchange, now Ill
per cent, have commenced immense
expectations of produce, against which
they negotiated bills in foreign mar
kets. These exports created the scarcity
of food, which is largely responsible for
the rioting throughout Spain.
Commander of Cadiz Fleet.
Admiral Caramara will take command
of the Cadiz fleet on Friday.
