buyer Of American specialties, and COM
mission houses have also been much
more active, indicating that public in
terest in the market is steadily lncreas-
ing.
Activity characterized the weeks spec
ulative business in grain, and the volume
Of dealings in provisions was quite up to
the average. Prices did not vary much
from those prevailing at the close of the
previous week. Estimates of the amount
of wheat raised this year displayed a
tendency to agree upon a crop of about
525 100000 bushels. Almost equal con-
currence in the requirements of the inn
port ng countries was shown in the esti-
mates of foreign statisticians, which did
not vary much from 345, 100000 bushels.
Of that total they calculate 220,OOO,OO
bushels will be needed from this coun-
try, OF weekly supply throughout the
season Of about 4, 15O, 600 bushels. AL
lowing for the surplus left over from the
previous seasons most abundant crop,
the indications are there is less wheat
this year than last year by at least 1OO,-
100000 bushels to supply equal require
ments. If these calculations prove ap-
proximately correct prices should rule
higher this year than last.
The corn crop still gladdens the hearts
of it's cultivators by its splendid promise,
and two weeks more of favorable wealth
err should put the bulk of it beyond
harms reach The deficiencies of last
seasons corn crop are beginning to be
demonstrated to the discontinue of
party in the market that sold for deliv-
cry at an earlier date than new crop sup
plies can be available.

The stock markets this week have con-

such operations. In some of the purely

train sped on it's way to Pittsburg.
Col Sanborn had extended the Penn
sylvanians an invitation to stop over in
Chicago as guests of the First Illinois

possible, and the three sections of the
troop train were delayed only long
enough to make the transfer from the
Chicago and Northwestern to the Penn
sylvania line.
The regiment roll contained 756 names
-733 privates and twentythree officers.
1t lost twenty-one men in the Orient fif-
teen being killed in battle and six dying

The occasion of the Tenth regiments
home coming was made a holiday
throughout big section of western
Pennsylvania. Pittsburg and Allegheny
were thronged with hundreds Of thou
sands of persons who came to welcome
the heroes home President Mckinley
was there, as was Maj. Gems. Merritt
and Greene. Gov. Stone delivered the
formal address at Schenley Park, and
the countless throng then singled out the
soldiers and proceeded to make an idol
of each, irrespective of rank. The Presi-
dent reviewed the regiment and made
speech. More than $4,000 was spent
to make the welcome royal one.

Honor to the spaniard!

A story of Spanish kindness to Amer
leans should not be forgotten among
the many records of American generos-
ity to Spain. 1t is thus printed in a
New York exchange:
While we were still at war with
Spain, Capt. Don Pedro Millet, of the
Spanish barkentine Gabriel rescued
the crew of wrecked American bark,
caring for them for twenty-six days,
and then refused positively to accept
any remuneration. We take off our
hats to our friends, our late enemies.

Sovereignty of United States Over Jolo
Archipelago Acknowledged.
Gen. Bates returned to Manila from
the Sulu with a treaty signed with the
Sultan. The Sultan agrees to all the
American terms proposed and recognizes
the absolute sovereignty Of the United
States, which he never did for Spain.
The Sultan collects no revenues, but will
receive an annual salary for maintaining
law and order. Several of the principal
chiefs are also salaried. Gen. Bates had
automatically gained the friendship Of
all the powerful chiefs and had the Sui

Cuban Women Grow Old Quickly.
AS rule, the Cuban woman is round
in figure and pretty in feature. Her
face is seldom vivacious -one looks In
vain for the beauty of expression. Her
hair is often glory to her, and is
sometimes of that black-blue shade
only possible with the daughters of
Southern Europe and their descen-
dants, though occasionally the Cuban
girl varies the program by being
blonde and, to be plain, rather fat
This lady is often a woman at II, and
the mother of large family at 10 or
20. So pretty in her youth, in age she
becomes either lean and dried or fat
and unwieldy. She fades early, and,
for want of strength of character, is
apt to lose control of her husband,
who, nevertheless, still continues to
need such control as badly as any man
of his times But, whatever she may
grow to seem, her eyes never fade. To
the last, through all vicissitudes, they
are big and black.

Denmark's Food Exports.

Denmark gives forcible evidence Of
increasing Fields, says the Forum. She
has a populationSof 900, 900, or 143 in
habitants per square mile. She is not
only able to feed her steadily increas-
ing population, but is in position to
export considerable quantities of food
products. In 1885 her exports Of such
products amounted to 200,000,00O kro-
ners 1854, O0O,0O0); her imports, to 49,
100000 kroners $500, 100000, an ex-
cess of $50, 100000, or ST. per capita.
The exports of food products, animal
and vegetable, of the United States,
for the fiscal year 1897 amounted to
$39O,0OO,00O or $3.50 per capita. In
the phenomenal year 1898 they rose to
$3.50, 100000, or $7.85 per capita.
The rate of progress in Denmark is
shown by the following statement:
According to official figures the pro
duction of grain, about $50 years ago,
amounted to about 100000 bushels
annually. In consequence, however,
of the reforms effected at the begin
ming of the nineteenth century, the rate
of production was gradually increased
to 36,OOO,O00; while, during the period
of 1SS1-S7 it rose to an average OF
S6,OO0,OOO."
