General Rios strongly Opposed to Dis
banding Cuban Troops.
Manzauillo, Cuba, oct. 29.--The Uni
ted States gunboat Hist arrived here
last night with General Leonard Wood,
commander of the military department
of Santiago, accompanied by Lieuten-
ant Matthew Hanna. On landing
General Wood was visited by Colonel
Petit and his adjutant and he was
subsequently received by Colonel Pet
tits entire regiment. General Wood
then visited the barracks, hospitals,
palaces, custom house and postoffice.
Colonel Petit reports that the Cuban
General Rios Is apparently making ev-
cry effort to prevent the disbanding OF
his troops The Cuban commander
wishes all the sugar estates in the
neighborhood to tell him how many
men they can employ and will guar
antee to supply all required on condi-
tion that only soldiers are employed.
The planters unanimously refuse to
fall in with such an arrangement, con-
sidering that 1t would be a trades union
of the worst possible kind and would
also tend to keep up the Cuban mill
tary organization, which in the In
terest of the island the planters are
particularly anxious to break up. In
their opinion it would be better to have
no commerce than to attempt 1t on
such conditions.
Lieutenant Lucien Young the COM
mander of the Hist, created more eR-
element on landing than even Cen
eral Wood himself Crowds gathered
at the wharf to see the young COM
mander who, with Lieutonants Holm
and Jungen, Of the Hornet and Wom-
patuck, defeated a whole fotilla OF
Spanish guuboats at Mauzanillo on
July l last The people of Manzanillo
consider Lieutenant Young hero and
terror, and think he ought to be an
admiral for, although the Spanish
shore batteries in that memorable en-
gagement continued to lombard the
American gunboats, 1t is generally ad-
mitted here that it was the shooting
Of the Hist that caused people to flee
to the mountains. In many parts of
the city are still visible marks of the

Slve Thanks For the speedy Cessation
of HostilitleS.
Washington, Oct. 29.-The president
after the cabinet meeting yesterday is
sued the following thanksgiving proc
1amation:
The approaching November brings to
mind the custom Of our ancestors, hal
lowed by time and rooted in our most
sacred traditions, of giving thanks to
Almighty God for all the blessings he
has vouchsafed to us during the past
year.
Few years in our history have af-
forded such cause for thanksgiving.
We have been blessed by abundant
harVests, our trade and commerce have
been wonderfully increased, our pub
lie credit has been improved and
strengthened, all sections of our COM
mon country have been brought to-
gether and knitted into closer bonds OF
national purposes and unity.
The skies have been for time dark
ened by the cloud of war, but as we
were compelled to take up the, sword in
the cause of humanity we are permit
ted to rejoice that the conflict has been
of brief duration and the losses we have
had to mourn, though grievous and i'm
portant, have been so few, consider

1t Is believed, however, IhaU tne
Major WIN Push on to Cairo and
VIII From There Ask Authority to
Withdraw His Force.
London, Oct. 29.-The morning news
paper editorials regard Major March
ands movement from Fashoda to
Ehartoum, announcement of which
was made yesterday, as indicative OF
a yielding on the specific question in
controversy, although the position Is
officially unaltered. 1t is assumed that
he will push on to Cairo in order to
be in direct communication with the
French government and that on reach
ing there he will represent to Paris the
impossibility of remaining at Fashoda
under existing conditions and will ask
authority to withdraw his entire force.
The Times says: "The desire ascribed
to France to raise a general discus
sion ought to be in itself sufficient
answer to the ridiculous rumor cir
culated in Ill informed quarters yester-
day that we intended to play into her
hands by declaring a protectorate over
Egypt. Nothing could be more un-
likely at the present moment"
The Daily News takes it for granted
that Major Marchand will come to
Paris.
The first cabinet minister to speak
publicly since the cabinet council on
Thursday is Lord Balfour, of Bur-
leigh, secretary for Scotland, who, ad-
dressing a meeting last evening at
Galashels, Scotland, declared that 1t
was the settled policy of the govern
ment that the valley of the Nile must
be Egyptian territory
Earl Spencer, first lord of the admir-
atty in Lord Rosebery's government, in
a strong speech last night at Greenock,
indorsed Lord Salisbury's attitude to-
ward the Egyptian question and refer
red with the greatest satisfaction to
''the prospect of Anglo-Saxon entente
Baron De Courcel, the French am
bassador had another long interview
at the foreign office yesterday with
Sir Thomas Sanderson, prominent un-
der secretary of state for foreign af-
fairs and there is no doubt that inn
portant matters were under discussion.
The rumor was circulated on the
Paris boulevards yesterday that Major
Marchand would be recalled from
Fashoda, but on neither side Of the
channel-certainly not on this side
Is any serious attention paid to the
rumor that England will declare pro-
tectorate over Egypt.
The Paris correspondent OF The
Standard says:
81 have excellent authority for the
assertion that Major Marchand left
Fashoda on his own initiative, but that
he will demand permission to withdraw
the mission, since his men are dying
| of hunger and disease"
The special correspondent of The
Daily News at Omdurman telegraphs
Il have reason to believe that Major
Marchand is waiting for instruction,
to withdraw the French mission from
! Fashoda"

FINANCE AND TRADE.
How European War Rumors Affeot
Our Markets.

How European War Rumors Affeot
Our Markets.
New York oct. 29.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade says: Business
has been more affected by foreign af-
fairs than many realize. London's ap-
prehension 70 war first caused an
advance in wheat and fears of mon
etary pressure here. Then came con-
fdence in London, and stock markets
here advanced, while wheat fell. Mobs
In Paris did not mean to influence
American interests from New York to
San Francisco, but electric wires have
made the world small. So the wires
moved a cargo of wheat from the Pa
cific coast, started 81, 500, 900 more gold
from Australia to this country on Lon
don account and the selling of Ameri-
can securities one day and buying the
next. There has been no domestic
change of much Importance, and the
rise in prices of western railroad stocks
indicate that the supreme court de-
eision against the Trunk Line associa-
ton IS considered helpful to railroads
Wheat rose three cents from Friday
to Monday and then fell four and a
half cents Friday. But such changes
do not represent actual conditions, and
with western receipts for the week,
Q, ,55s, ,2O5 bushels, against 6,996,4S7 last
year, nobody can pretend that holding
Of stocks by western farmers is an im-
portant factor.
Bradstreets review says: Irregular
ity in prices and trade movements mas
been rather more marked this week
than for some time past, but measured
by all the usual standards of business
development the situation Is one OF ex"
ceptional activity, and even strength
The active foreign demand advancing
prices for American cereals and their
products appeared to have eliminated
early in the week in a virtual war
scare" market, in which the highest
prices reached since early in August
were recorded. The reaction shown
however, has been a small one, testiry-
ing to nervousness both at home anu
abroad, growing out of the exceptoh-
ally small gains in the worlus SUP
piles, reports of damage to wheat III
the fields in the northwest and In Man
itoba, active milling demand for whsat
at home, Minneapolis breaking al
records of flour production Tor the Week.
and a continuance of the talk of rather
less than anticipated returns OF crops
abroad noted for some time past.
