The wheat trade has dropped into
a condition where no one except scalp
eis and few professional traders, ex-
porters, and elevator people are touch
ing it. There is promise OF carrying
charges in the near future and as ele-
vator people have no stock, they are
commencing to buy the daily arrivals.
Millers are buying little, and export
ers who have made good sales abroad
for near shipments are also competing
for the arrivals. The big spectators
are mostly on the short side. They sell
whenever the market has an upturn,
and their offerings are sufficient to pre-
vent bulges OF material length. On
part of their line, taking their profits,
only to put the wheat out again at the
same plice to possibly shade better.
They are working on the crop report.
Their adviees from the Northwest are
favorable. A private statistician esti.
mates the spring crop wheat at S00,-
900, 900 bushels. Placing the winter
wheat yield at 400.000,000 bushels, it
would make an aggregate crop of spring
and winter OF 700, 900, 900 bushels.
This is the largest on record. Conser.
vative people place the crop at 600,.
600, 900 bushel, and the government
figures made the yield 615,0o0,o 900
bushels, or 80, 900, 900 bushel less than
q month ago. Statistician Snow makes
the spring wheat acreage $4,000, 900
acres, which exceeds that of the govern
ment. The acreage of the department
of agriculture this year Is nearer the
actual seeding than at any time in its
history, and possibly when the final re-
port is made it will show that the crop
is about as reported, as it is able to get
nearer the correct figures than ever be-
| fore.
Present prices are about the same as
last year, but then farmers did not
have taste of 81 wheat, and where
anxious to sell. Having been treated
to dollar wheat, most Of them think
that they should have higher prices
again. Should the corn crop be ma
terially damaged and sell at high prices,
1t may help wheat little, but the out
look is not particularly favorable. The
exports for the year ending June 80
were 218, 100000 bushels Of -four and
wheat, against l45, 900, 900 bushels the
preceding year.

UTAH TROOPS FOR PARK POLICE
GAINES CAVALRYMEN TO ACT
AS PATROL.
Officer and Ten Men Ordered to Look
After the Yosemite, Sequoia and
General Grant Parks.

Washington, July 16.-The secretary
of the interior has received information
that special forest agents have elected
more than $1,000 sheep from the Yo-
semitic park, California, and will, in a
short time, probably succeed in remov-
ing the others now on that reserve.
Secretary Bliss has heretofore request
ed a detail of troops to the several
national parks in California, but the
soldiers so assigned were removed in
order to accompany the Philippine eX-
petition. Many complaints were re-
ceiVed concerning the invasion of
sheepmen, and a special inspector was
sent to take charge of the parks and
was subsequently designated acting SUI
perintendent, with instructions to en-
ploy from 10 to "a men as assistant for
est agents. These men have succeeded
in ejecting the sheep.
The secretary of war has also de-
tailed an officer and ten men of the
Utah volunteer cavalry to patrol Yo-
semitic, Sequoia and General Grant Ma
tional parks. These men have been
told TO report to the acting superin-
tendent for instructions, and it is hoped
that by their assistance the destruction
of the forests by fire may be prevented.
The interior department has used every
effort in its power to protect these
parks.

It is judged that the Spanish govern
ment has pretty fairly imbibed some
such idea as this. and that the utter
ances of Premier Sagasta and the eau
tiOus declarations in the pro-Spanish
newspapers are simply intended to
gradually bring the Spanish populace
into a state of mind where they Will
be willing to submit quietly to the i'm
position of some such terms of peace.
1t is realized that at present the con-
ditions in Spain are not ripe and that
some time-hOw much cannot be esti-
mated now-will be required to culti-
vate public sentiment in Spain TO the
proper point.

COMMISSIONERS FOR U|NTAH
HARPER, THE OHIO MAN, Is
CHAIRMAN.
Other Members of the Uncompahgre
Commission Appointed-No Utah
Man Selected.
Especial to The Herald.)

Washington, July 1.-THE president
appointed the new Uintah commission
erS this afternoon, and, to the surprise
of the friends of the old UncOmpahgre
commissioners, EraStus r. Harper,
formerly secretary, becomes chairman
of the body He owes his new promi-
nence to the friends of Colonel Dick,
secretary of the Republican national
committee. Ross, Griffin and Howell p.
Myton, the present Uncompahgre COM
misSiOners, are the other members ap-
pointed. Members of the Utah delega-
ton are disappointed that no Utah
man was placed upon the commission.
The nomination of eX-Delegate Muir
ply of Arizona to succeed McCord as
governor is only a temporary affair. Nc
Cord will pose as colonel of the terri
torial volunteer regiment for a few
weeks and then Murphy will give him
back his Office. There is no probabili-
ity that the Arizona, New Mexico and
Oklahoma regiment will ever get to
the front.
The chief architect of the Indian Of
flee has recommended to the Indian
commissioner the employment of ex-
ira craftsmen in order to expedite the
work of the preparation of plans and
specifications for the new buildings
provided by the last Indian appropria-
ton bill. 1t is probable that the rec
ommendation will be favorably acted
upon, which will be the means of hast
ening work at the St. George school.

San Francisco. July 16.-The Utah
light battery of volunteer artillery re-

TO embark on the Rio Janeiro without
delay. They consist of los officers and
men. Lieutenant Wedgwood command
ing. He is, however, too i'll to go. No
one has as yet been assigned in his
place. They are about to get a new
armament of four pieces. AT present
they have only two. The heavy bag

day.

Today, in spite of all the immense
amount of work that has thus been
shouldered on this command, active
preparations We're continued to get off
the vessels of the Fourth Manila eX-
petition as soon as possible.
There will be a final inspection of the
Pennsylvania tonight, and if every
thing is satisfactory. the troops desig-
mated for her will be ordered to en-
bark tomorrow. The troops that are
detailed for the Pennsylvania are the
First Montana regiment and the re-
cluits for the First California The
South Dakota regiment is to go on the
Rio. 1t is doubtful whether the Rio de
Janeiro will be ready by Tuesday. The
delay is in putting in her hunks. Men
will work all day tomorrow. There is,
SO far no sign of the st. Paul, due from
st. Michael. She is now a week over
due, but has probably had to wait for
river steamers.

FITZHUGH LEE.
Colonel Bryan Says the Criticisms of
His Regiment Are Due to Its
Communicates OF Visitors.

Omaha, Neb.. July 16.-Colonel w. ].
Bryan's regiment OF volunteers was the
attraction at the exposition today.
Thousands came from Nebraska, Kan
sas and Iowa. to take part in the exer-
cises. Colonel Bryan and his men
marched two miles from Fort Omaha
to the grounds. At the grounds the
troops drilled and paraded. After the
parade the regiment and visitors ad-
iCurned to the auditorium, where Col
onel Bryan. Governor HolcOmb of Ne
braska and Governor Leeday of Kan
sas addressed the crowd. Colonel Bry-
an, referring to criticisms of the regi-
ment, said they were not due to the
men in it. but to its commander.
Later the visitors gave up the audi
torium to the troops, who were fur
nished a luncheon by the lady board of
managers. The regiment will leave to-
morrow night, to join Lees command
at Jacksonville. Fla.

POLITICS IN IDAHO.
Silver Republicans Become Goldbugs
Split In the Party.
cspec.a! 10 The aeraida

Especial 10 The Aerald.)
Pocatello, Ida, July 16-Club rolls
for the formation of a gold standard
Republican club are being circulated
here and are being quite numerously
signed by former Republicans who
two years ago supported Bryan upon
the silver issue. The main cause for
dissatisfaction among silver Republic
ans is the opposition of certain Demo-
cratic and Populist leaders in regard to
the union of the silver parties in the
campaign in this state this fall, many
of them declaring that they prefer to
vote the Republican ticket straight
rather than to aid it by voting for one
or the other of the trio of silver par
ties.
News from Boise is that there is
likely to be a serious split in the
ranks of the Republican party. Not
a few of the men who supported Nc
Kinley two years ago have been ap-
pointed to federal offices. and these
men, it is said. will insist that the
platform of the Idaho Republicans this
fall contain a gold standard plank. In
fact, to keep in touch with the national
administration, they must so insist.
Now the facts are that a lot of voters
who supported Mckinley two years
ago are silver men at heart and cannot
be forced to swallow an out-and-out
gold plank in the platform. There is
no doubt, however, that it will be in
sisted on in the convention. and that
it will be adopted. This will certainly
cause serious dissatisfaction in the
ranks and will, in fact, split the party
wide open.

Despite official denials and prepara-

that the main points have been agreed
upon with the Washington authorities.

through the Mexican ministry, has rep

the opposition to Cuban volunteers and
Spain's total exhaustion through her
enormous losses. The political situation
is most critical, owing to agitation in
the principal towns"

whether il is willing that the Spanish
soldiers shall carry off their arms. and

Shafter are satisfactory. the government
is not hound to deliver these arms so
E2uch desired by our ordnance officers Just
at this time. Of course. the recommended

capitulation naturally would have great
weight with the president and the score

TO INSIST on the retention of the arms
principally because of the difference in
moral effect that would be produced by
the return TO Spain of armed or disarmed
soldiers.
