to offer autonomy have been shot by the

Cubans, men, women and children

for revenge. Many of the mothers and

suffered that horrible death. Thousands

that men who have been fighting two

The report from Washington to the

to the present congress message recon-
mending the establishment of a depart
ment of commerce and industry will be
gratifying news TO the vast commercial
and industrial interests of this country,
which have long contended for the Gre

to this purpose. 1t is peculiarly fitting
that this administration, which, more
than any that have preceded it, sustains
such close relations to the business in
terests of the country, should take meas
ures for the creation of federal de-
partment of commerce and industry.

CHICAGO MARKET, MARCH Fl.

Advices to Schwartz, Dupee & Co.
from Northwestern points are that the
granaries in that section are pretty
we'll emptied, and the large arrivals
each day from these bear out this
view
The bulls in wheat assert that farm
ers will be buying seed wheat this
spring, while the bears ridicule this
idea and say that prices are already
unnaturally high. Whatever may be
the proper mean between these two
extremes of statement, it is certain
that the market here shows no marked
tendency to decline. On Saturday
there was break in May, but it was
of the "shake-out' variety, and did
not afford substantial hope for the
bears, who to-day saw a strong and
steady market confronting them. May
had quite range from 1881 to above
IDS, and there was reasonable huctu-
alton in July, but on the whole the
feeling was one of strength, and the
feeling is that prices would advance
sharply on very moderate buying.
Corn is attracting considerable at
tention just now. There is no doubt
of the existence of an immense long
interest in May, and with the ample
supply in sight it is claimed that all
such contracts will have to be liqui-
dated at much lower range of val
ues. Oats were fairly strong. and pro-
visions dull and steady.
