CHICAGO MARKETS.

Chicago Sept. 6.-Wheat opened I'M
changed for December and little lower
for September, the latter on account Of
heavy receipts in the northwest. Little
wheat was offered for sale and shortly
after the opening the change in the as
pect of outside markets which have been
relatively weaker than Chicago for some
time past, but which to-day were COM
paratively stronger, induced some cover
ing by the more timid shorts and a good
advance in prices took place. December
opened at HAMS and advanced to MA
71Sc, while September opened Ac lower
at 699sc; advanced to 703sc The advance
was sufficient to induce realizing. which
carried prices back fractionally, but after
a long period of comparative dullneSs,
during which December hung around
1Ad712s, the continual strength of the
northwest and other outside markets and
the improvement in the export demand
increased the volume of trading in, the
speculative market and again advanced
prices.
The strength shown by September was
especially noticeable
There was a good demand for this from
elevator people and shorts and the spread
between September and December mar
rowed to 1sc. The strength was in spite
of the liberal country movements and free
offerings. Buying By shorts was quite
heavy during the late trading and best
prices of the day were reached shortly be-
fore the close. December advanced to
7l&c and closed at 715sM71%c. September
sold at 7012@705sc, and closed at 7012c

IN position to carry out this provision
as 10 payment. In the event of ratifi-
cation, however, speedy action will be
necessary.
The treaty provides that the payment
shaIl be made within three months
after the exchange of ratifcations {"
and another provision REQUIRES the eY-
change OF notifications within six
months from the date the treaty was
signed, viz, December 10 last. This
would bring the payment before the
next session of Congress, so that the
appropriation must be made at the
present session.
OWlng to the short time elapsing after
the senate acts on the treaty and the
close OF the present session it is thought
Ihat little time Will remain TO deal with
matter Of this magnitude. There has
peen some talk of dealing with the pay
Hient IN special appropriation, but
TINS IS not feasible, as a special bill has
no privilege under the rules and is
easily open to obstruction. whereas the
general appropriation bills carry un-
usual privileges and are almost certain
to pass before the session ends. For
this reason it is probable that the pay
ment will be placed in the sundry civil
or some other general appropriation
Dill, II the provision is retained in the
treaty as ratified.
The Appropriation Committee has not
determined what appropriation bill to
take up next. 1t will be either the sun
dry civil or the fertilization bill but
in any event the Spanish item is likely
to be deferred until action on the treaty
is secured

EDMUNDS' VIEWS AS
TO THE PHILIPPINES

NEW YORK, Jan. Tx Senator
George F. Edmunds, in a letter ad-
dressed to the New York World, re-
views the Philippine question at
length. He describes briefly the ply
steal aspects of the islands and the
character of their inhabitants. The
population, he says, is already denser
than that Of the State of Michigan"
and adds that 'of the total of all this
conglomeration of races, the Europeans
and Americans compose less than per
cent, after more than 200 years of Eu-
ropean occupation" He claims that
the people never have been and never
can be in need of or consumers of
American productions to an appreciable
extent"
Dewey's victory, which "astonished
the naval powers of the world" gave
us control only of the bay and city of
Manila and it's environments. Nearly
all beyond that was in possession of an
organized rebellion against Spain. But
the people of the islands, who were car
rying on the rebellion in order to be
free and independent, do not desire to
be annexed and that they intend to re-
sist annexation" Mr.. Edmunds says,
appears to be indisputable"
He then proceeds to show what a war
of conquest would mean, and asks how
we can be justified lin forcing by the
sword our particular and excellent idea
Of government, morality and religion
upon these people, as Mohammed did
in his religious wars and as Spain did
in her early operations on this con-
tinent."
AS to the status of the Fillipinos, Mr.
Edmunds argues that all of them who
were the subjects of Spain will become
citizens of the United States by the
mere act of cession," and as such
they will have all the rights that be-
long to other citizens in the territories"
Edmunds says that Congress can
not therefore lawfully prevent the mi
grafton of any citizen residing in the
Philippines to our States any more
than it can lawfully prevent the migra-
ton of the citizens of the States to the
Philippines
What the Philippines will do to us in
cost, loss of lives, the introduction of
militalism, etc, Edmunds considers a
serious aspect of the question. He as
serts the complete power of the Senate
over the treaty, to amend or reject, and
suggests that it may so amend it 'as
to provide substantially, as the scheme
has been as to Cuba, that the people
of those islands should be left to gov
ern themselves"
AS to the payment of 500 1000, 900 for
territory which, Spain did not control,
Edmunds says that lin view of the
gravity of other aspects of the subject
1t is not worthy of notice"

Long has ordered the Solace to proceed
TO Manila as soon as she can be made
ready for the voyage. Besides the
Solace Secretary Long has ordered the
gunboats Princeton and Yorktown to
the same port. The Princeton is now
at New York. and will go via Suez. The
Yorktown is at San Francisco and will
cross the Pacific.
e. Admiral Dewey has asked for sup
plies Of various kinds and the Solace
will carry heavy load of these, suffi-
cient to supply the fleet on the Asiatic
station for six months at least. The
vessel will be attached to Admiral
Dewey's fleet and in all probability, if
this voyage turns out successfully, she
will form one of the regular line of
transports which will ply between the
United States and the Philippines for
the special benefit Of the navy. The
vessel is now at the New York Navy
Yard and is expected to sail for Manila

LEO WILL SEND
KEANE TO MANILA

NEW YORK, Jan. 7.-Advices just
received from Rome confirm the news
that Archbishop Keane, formerly rec
tor of the Catholic University at Wash
ington, has been chosen by the Pope
to be Papal Nuncio to the Philippines,
as was exclusively foreshadOwed in the
Herald a short time ago. Since his
residence in Rome Monsignor Keane
has been in the high councils of the
church, his especial mission being to
look after the interests of the church
in America. That he is in unusual IA
vor with Pope Leo XIII is shown by
this extract from a letter just re-
ceived:
alone among the archbishops resi-
dent in the Curia Monslgnor Keane,
Archbishop of Damascus, enjoys the
favor of regular annual audiences with
his Holiness the Pope.
His Grace had one recently. 1t was
most affectionate, the Pope treating his
Grace with particular affection, said
that he had heard great praise of his
work of preaching in Rome, emphasized
its Importance, and, while blessing him
in particular, blessed his hearers also"
The church of San Silvestro, where
Archbishop Keane breaches, is reported
to be crowded every Sunday, and he is
considered one of the most popular
preachers in the Eternal City.
1t is supposed by his friends here that
Archbishop Keane will accept the of
flee of Papal Nuncio to the Philippines,
although it will involve sacrifice of
no mean proportions, for the post is
not looked upon as one to be desired.

Representative Loud Protests Against
the Maintenance of the Seattle
ASSAY Office

WASHINGTON, DC, Jan. 7.-Repre-
sentative Loud made short and sharp
speech in the House this afternoon
against the proposition to make an appro-
priation for the assay office at Seattle.
The House was discussing the regular APP
priation bill. and when the item provid-
ing for the maintenance of the Seattle
assay office was reached Loud said If the
history of that office were to be made an
open book the House would be astonished
at the revelation. He said the assay Of
flee was established there ostensibly for
the benefit Of the poor miner, but really
for the benefit of one corporation, whose
headquarters is in Chicago.
He said there was no mint at Seattle,
and the assay office there was Of no bene-
concern for whose special benefit (by
well-arranged combination) this assay
office was established. brought its dust
and bullion from Alaska, had 1t assayed
at Seattle. where it was sold and shipped
to Philadelphia for coinage. Loud said
the proposition now was to erect public
and that it was high time the House I'M
derstood the facts of the case and that
this office ought to be discontinued.
Lewis Of Washington replied to Loud in
quenty they had lively ,spat over
Lewis insinuation that Loud was dis
playing peculiar friendship for the Alaska
Commercial Company. 1t was an anus
ing and amiable colloquy, and while Loud
spoke very forcibly against it the item
was retained in the bill.
Senators Perkins and White to-day
called upon Secretary Gage and the Di-
rector of the Mint regarding the discrim-
ination of the Treasury Department
against the San Francisco Mint and in
favor of Philadelphia in coming bullion.
The Philadelphia Mint now has on hand
bullion that will require two years or
more for coming, yet bullion from the
West continues to be sent there The de-
1iSPlaimpH intention
criminate and will give the matter it's at
tention with a desire to do full justice.
Senator White to-day presented in the
Senate the petition of the Anti-Debrs
Association of California. requesting that
the proposed Improvement of Sacramento
River be put under the contract system
instead of being conducted by appropria-
tons from session to session.
