Situation Most Unsatisfactory.
Outlook In Manila Dangerous Owing
To the Attitude OF the Insurgents.

Warrington, August Gen. Mer-
rift has again cabled the War Depart
ment relative to the situation in Man
lila, which he finds very unsatisfactory
and dangerous, owing to the attitude
of the insurgents. In the opinion OF
Gen. Merritt, the attitude of the insur-
gents there is similar to that assumed
by Garcia's Cubans upon the question
of their right to enter and possess
themselves Of the city, although in this
case the insurgents are very much
more formidable element, being not
only numerous, but better armed and
filled with the arrogance following the
numerous victories over their Spanish
foes.
Gen. Merritt, however, indicates that
he will do his utmost to protect the Cit
liens from the sayagery of the insur-
gents, though his task is delicate and
difficult one, because of the fact that he
must, while fighting the Spaniards, be
ready at any moment to repel the in
surgents. The General gave notice that
he was about to combine with Admiral
Dewey in joint demand for the sur
render of the city to the United States
forces, thus forestalling the insurgents,
and this move may cause rupture.
It is possible, in view of the fact that
Gen. Merits cablegram was sent from
Cavite last Thursday, that this move
ment has been made already by the com
bined military and naval force, altho'
there is some doubt about this on &C
| count of statement from Gen, Mer-
rift that he may need all Of his soldiers
before attacking. Still, it is possible
that the demand might be made with
out being Immediately followed by an
attack, which might be deferred until
all the troops have reached Cavite. Ur
to the date of the report Gen. Merritt
had with him about IL, 600 soldiers.
So far, seven expeditions have left
San Francisco carrying soldiers to the
Philippines, and it is .he intention tC
furnish General Merritt with 5000
men more than his present force. i
he delays his attack until these have
reached him, Manila will not be takel
before September, for the last Of the
troOps have not yet started from Sa1
francisco. II may be, however, tina
the arrangements as to the Philippines
which, it is expected, will be included
in the peace treaty, will obviate TIN
necessity for further action on the par
of the American commanders.

ARMOUR BORROWED WHEAT.
Cause of the Great Movement OF That
Cereal to Minneapolis.

CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-THE Journal says:
"There is new light on the battle between
Armour and Letter last December and on
the present movement of spring wheat to
Minneapolis which has puzzled the trade
from Chicago TO London. 1t is claimed
that Armour is filling another contract,
chiefly with Mr.. Peavy, of Minneapolis. The
story is this: When the Armour forces were
working as never before, last December, to
bring wheat to Chicago from Minneapolis
and Duluth to fill short sales to Joseph
Letter, Mr.. Armour became borrower. He
did not borrow at the banks. He borrowed
central markets from Mr.. Peavy and others,
and entered into a bond to replace the
wheat before a certain date. 1T is claimed
that the guaranty of the furnishing of the
wheat at the time specified was check rep
resent1ng about 100000. The never-ending
run of wheat to Minneapolis for six long
weeks after best judges in the trade said
the receipts were at an end, is now ex-
planned by Armour'S efforts to fill his con-
tract with Mr.. Peavy. 1t is the draining of
the old wheat from hiding places over a
half dozen great States. Country tributary
to Kansas City had been worked for the
Minneapolis market. Now it is known why
the receipts up there have not been ON the
market. The wheat is dumped into the
Peavy hopper to replace the borrowed
