TO 21ad per bushel higher, with the
continental markets also doing better.
Another reason for strength was found
in the bad news from France, where
the crop was said to have been seriously
hurt by rust. According to authentic
reports, the yield there will be ten to
twenty per cent less than anticipated.
Advices were also received from many
sections in Missouri, Kansas and Texas
where the grain is ripe, reporting seri-
Gus loss from rains. and these, too, had
a good influence early in the day. Shorts
covered freely and there was some gen
eral buying for the long account under
which prices advanced sharply.
The heavy profit taking and short
selling which followed this led to
sharp reaction and September. which

the formation Of an underwriting syn

The feverishness of the leaders
dominated the speculation to a more

of the London operators to absorb a
sprinkling of the international favor

the standard shares at succeeding

tendency, and value moved slowly up

There is scarcely resident of WASH

ance of flags from public and private
buildings
After the destruction of the Maine.
until war with Spain was actually de-
clared, and during its progress, the flag
of the United States was in evidence
everywhere. Scarcely a housetop in
Washington was without it. One could
not walk ten PAGES and fail to see IL in
shop windows. If a pedestrian tried IN
dodge a scorching bicycle girl she was
sure 10 have somewhere about her wheel
or costume an American flag, the sight
OF which invariably put him in good
humor Tor any temporary scare the whizz
OF her wheel might have occasioned
Flag buttons appeared, and everybody
wore them Merchants gave away minia-
ture hags with sales of goods, and, in
fact Old Glory. If not waving proudly
aloft, was in some other way in evidence
everywhere. Women and men went so
Tar as to decorate pet animals with Gags.

The Cuban flag was likewise ubiquitous
in public places. 1t disappeared first,
having begun to wane in popularity soon
after the unfavorable reports from San
tiago about the conduct of the insurgents.
But. if the flag is disappearing, It does
not signify that there is any diminution
of patriotism. There continues to be
given the same lusty cheering of patriotic
airs. and war songs are applauded to the
echo.
The mere mention in Variety theaters-
the only ones now open-of the names of
war heroes fairly sets the house wild.
and when the American flag is waved the
audiences generally arise and shout
There is no doubt that during the war
and even now. the sight of Old Glory
aroused emotions in the breasts of Ameri-
cans which have not been felt in many
years.
The Star-Spangled Banner, which has
never known defeat. means more now
than ever before, and there are thou

moving it from sight, viii pass it down
