true that it is proposed 10 buy Of Spain
the sovereignty of the Philippine Isl

not believe that such a treaty Will be
agreed TO. and 1 don't believe it ought TO

and L do not think the people of the
United States are in the market to buy

tuition has conferred the right TO buy any
such commodity. The constitution was
framed upon the theory thmat sovereign

United States have conferred on nobody
the power 10 make such purchases in

tory, either vacant or so sparsely set
tied that there was no people capable of

We have also in one recent case, ac-

Boston, Mass, Nov 30.-The American
Wool and Cotton Reporter will say Jomor-
row of the wool market: Notwithstanding
the interruption TO business caused by
the Thanksgiving holiday and the fierce
storm, the volume Of trade during the past
week has reached a very fair aggrega-
ton of sales. a more hopeful feeling $
noticeable, due partly to the more sea-
sonable weather and the belief that this
betokens a snug, early winter, which
Will necessitate an increased sale of cloth
ing and better demand for wool. Stocks
of wool on the Boston market are very
large, but on the other hand it must be
remembered that manufacturers, taken as
a whole. are not heavily stocked. The
sales of the week in Boston amount to
2,61,0o0 pounds domestic and CTS 800 pounds
foreign, making d total of $4,000 pounds,
against a total of 3, s7e 600 fr the previous
week and a total of 4,552, coo for the cor

HOGS FIVE HIGHER
Fair Supply, But Too Low for
Demand.
TOPS SAIL UP TO 1920
Cattle Slow With Moderate
Supply and Mixed Quality.

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
a full 5 cents higher. 1t was early re-
ported at various quotations ranging from
the above to strong to higher, but the
later receipts of car hogs and the sales
OF them at once settled any question, and
8 higher ruled for the day. It was a.
brisk active day at the yards. the bus
;ness being enough in competition to make
The securing of hogs matter of prompt
bidding accompanied with strong prices
paid. From first to last there was vim
and snap to the trade which was refresh
Ing and which disposed of the receipts
with degree Of celebrity which suited all
concerned. The receipts were again fairly
uberal but at least a thousand below what
could have sold easily at the best market
prices. Besides the days offerings there
were four cars carried over from late ar
rivals the night before, and these four
were the first to sell and weigh up on the
opening, they being Of varying grades and
quality and selling strong each for its
respective merits. Sandwiched in among
these were a large number of more or
less filled punches of wagon hogs, all of
which sold as fast as yarded, and gener-
ally at firm prices. The car stuff COM
menced TO arrive in scattering lots before
noon, and continued until after dark one
or two too late for satisfactory inspec-
ton and were fed and cared for for the
night and will be transferred early on this
mornings opening. Everything else of the
received stock was early disposed of with
q hungry look and disappointed air ruling
among the several buyers for more. The
general average quality Of the sale hogs
may be covered by saying it was COM
mon to fair. The average weight was
10 pounds better than Tuesday, but there
were more hogs sold yesterday, and the
heavier hogs of yesterday were not in all
cases equal TO the lighter but better
stock Of Tusday. The two top loads were
extra heavy and Of very fair tone. as were
also several punches of local trade Other
cars were mixed heavy and light, aver
aging light. andu poorer stock. As noted
below, the market prices paid were very
strong compared with other points, and
the quotation considerably above There
was an active eager demand for hogs both
by the local packing interest and the
orders. The feeling was bouy- |
ant, and the trade for the day was de-
cidedly to the advantage of shippers and |
sellers The business was cleared I'D early |
and in good shape save only the few late /
