The Spanish Government, on learn

Dupuy de LONE was concerned, and being
advised Of his objectional communication,
with entire sincerity laments the Incl

with the Minister; states that Minister
de Lone had presented his resignation,

sentation of the matter by Minister
Woodford; that the Spanish Minister, in
accepting the resignation OF functionary
whose services they have been utilizing
and valuing up to that time, leaves 1t per-

had reached publicity by an artful and
criminal means. That this meaning had
taken shape in a resolution by the coun-
Gil of Ministers before General Wood

telegraphic reports concerning the senti-
ments alluded to and that the Spanish

"'As TO the passage concerning the de-

the government expresses concern that In
the light of its conduct, long after the
writing of the letter. and IN view Of the
unanswerable testimony Of simultaneous
and subsequent facts, any doubt should
exist that the Spanish Government has

COMMERCIAL REPORT.
Weekly Trade Review of K. G. Dun &
Co., of New York.

New York, Oct. 1.-Failures in Sep
TENDER have been about SIS, 700, 900 and
for the quarter about so, 49, 900. This
is smaller aggregate than in other
months in many years, except August
this year,
Changes are all for the better, ex-
ceptiug the fall of cotton to the lowest
point for fifty years. While the stag
nation in wool continues, there has
been no notable decline, the recent re-
duction in goods having stimulated a
larger demand.
The demand for boots and shoes
seems little better. In the minor
metals slight weakness in tin and
lead does not indicate smaller con-
sumption, while copper is strong.
With pig iron firm everywhere in
spite of the extraordinary output, con-
sumption is evidently growing. Car,
locomotive, bridge, and structural
work is exceedingly heavy, and there
are no signs of decrease in demand.
l, Wheat rose q cents, but on Thurs
day declined sharply, closing 2 cents
lower for the week. The usual babel
ofguesses does not change the belief
that the crop will be the largest ever
grown. While the farmers through
out the west are holding back their
grain largely because of low prices,
western receipts are now running
above even the extraordinary move.

Failures for the week in the United
States were 1876, against 1914 last year.

Tribute to Rev. Phillips.

Frankville, Oct. i, 1898.
EDITORS PUBLIC OPINION
In Justice to all who know him and
also to Rev. J. S. Phillips, we can but
give a passing tribute to him as he
goes to his new field of work in Tower
Minnesota. Rev. ]. S. Phillips has
been pastor of the Presbyterian society
of Frankville for nearly two years, and
we fear that it will be some time e'er
he can be replaced by the society,
either as thinker, sermonizer or an
orator; but we do not censnre him nor
wish his return as he has taken a
much larger and higher position in his
line OF work, going to city of nearly
5000 inhabitants and getting the best
church in the city. May success crown
his efforts in his new field of labor is
the wish of his many friends. ~

Lightning Causes Disastrous Fire.

During the storm last Thursday
night the barn of Gust. A. Bakken,
who lives in Lincoln township, two
and miles north Of Ridgeway, was
struck by lightning and burned to the
ground. Five horses, two cows, two
calves, barn full of hay, eight stacks
of grain, and a chicken house with all
his chickens were also destroyed. 1t is
a heavy loss and a serious blow to Mr..
Bakken, who, we understand, had
only about $500 insurance on the loss,
that in the Farmers Mutual Insurance
Company of this county.

why Grain Should BE Held.

OTTUMwA, Ia, Sept. 29.-The Farm
ers' Alliance of this county at recent
meeting decided to issue the following
advice to Iowa agrioulturalists as to the
advisability of holding their grain for
higher prices: Within short time a
steady advance up to the 75-cent mark
at northwestern shipping points is GER
tain as death; and the farmers have the
game in their own hands If they play
with little caution. The reason upon
which we base our faith in the better
price for wheat Is that when the crop Of
1898 was harvestedxhe worlds supply
from former years was practically ex-
hausted and the bread eating world IL
now drawing It's supplies from the crop
Of thsNpresent year"
