CHICAGO MARkETS.


Chicago. Dec. 13.-Opening prices in
wheat were practically unchanged from
yesterday. Northwest receipts were COM
parative,y small. but this was offset by a
decline of 9sd i'm futures and Id for spot

were at a standstill. with "A very narrow

prices were in for a good advance, In

news was favorable and cary reports
from the seaboard did not indicate very
bright prospects for n continued good
foreign demand for American wheat. one
cable from Germany refusing offerings on
the ground that Russia was offering wheat
under the American parity. Nevertheless
the local sentiment was bul.ish. and even
at the good advance wheat did not
come out I'm very great quantities. Near
the end of the session reports Of heavy
shipping orders here for st. Louis and
the seaboard proved an additional slim

The Federal Steel stocks. which had
been somewhat neglected. were taken in

JOHN LIMBS appointment as quar-
termaster OF the Second Minnesota
regiment and his acceptance thereof
has created a good deal of political
speculation. Some interpret 1t to
mean that he will not be the candi-
date of the Fusionists for governor.
This seems to be rational view, as
MIR. Lind would hardly have gone in
to the military service with the ex-
pectation OF resigning to accept po-
litical nomination SO soon after the
first event. While Mr.. Lind is I'LL
doubtedly the strongest man that
could be named in opposition to the
Republican candidate, there are 9TH
er men that would make good run.
The war is upsetting all previous
calcutions, however, and it's vigorous
and successful prosecution will add
strength to the Republican admins
tration and rehectively to all Repub-
lican candidates in the state electlons.

No STARTLING war news have been
recorded thus tar this week. Troops
and supplies are being forwarded TO
Dewey with all possible speed. Capt.
Sampson with part of his squadron
sailed last week presumably Tor Por-
to Rico to take the island and destroy
the Spanish fleet if able to find it.
At noon to-day no news had been re-
ceived from him. The latest report
is that the Spanish Cape Verde fleet
has not crossed the ocean but return
ed to Cadiz. The Spaniards succeed
well in keeping us guessing as to
the whereabouts of their fleet. Troops
are now being transported to Cuba
also arms and ammunition for the in
surgents. The plan appears to be to
attack Havana by soldiers in the rear
and by the fleet in front. The block
ade OF Havana continues. Thus far
the fortunes Of war have greatly fay
ored the United States. The people
of Spain are exceedingly wrought up
over their defeats and riots in the
principal cities are the order Of the
day.

DEwEY's victory at Manila is one
OF the most remarkable yet recorded
in naval warfare. Without the loss
OF ship or a man, only eight men
being slightly wounded, he accom-
plished the defeat and destruction OF
the whole Spanish squadron, COM
prising about a dozen vessels, and
inflicted a loss on the enemy OF about
500 killed and perhaps that many
wounded. We will search the worlds
history in vain for another such over
whelming and decisive victory accom-
panied by no loss practically to the
yictors. After destroying the Span
ish ships he attacked the fortifca-
tions at the entrance to the bay and
at Cavite making himself complete
master ofthe situation, with the city
OF Manila at his mercy. Dewey's
splendid achievement proves that
Americans have not lost their old
time valor at sea, that the spirit OF
John Paul Jones, Perry, and Farra-
gut still lives. The battle at Manila
will fill a glorious page in American
history.
