Chicago Grain Market.

CHICAGO, Aug. THE most prominent fea-
ture of wheat trading throughout the entire
session was its exceeding dizziness. Interest In
trading never very great during the hot sum
mer months, dwindled to insignificant proper
tions to-day and the sum total of the SEES
sions transactions hardly great as has
frequently been seen during a lively half hour.
Variations in the price were confined TO
range of &c in September and but a shade over
that in the distant futures. September
opened 1sc to &c lower at 691sc. Weather in
the spring wheat belt favorable and this
caused a little languid selling at first, enough
to put the price at 69c. The favorable weather
was in a measure offset by reports of disap-
pointing yields from various points and by bad
crop reports from European countries. A mod
crate covering movement ensued, carrying Sep
TENDER to 69hc Up to the noon hour the price
kept close TO that figure, but after that time
the neglected market developed more weakness,
September getting back to 6sc again. This was
put price, and several little rallies occurred
on buying against the privileges, but the sup
port was unsubstantial and the market lnVari-
ably worked back to the even figure. The cash
demand was small and New York reported only
ten boatloads taken for export. Urinary re
ceipts continued large, the total being 756, 600
bushels. September was bringing CSC at the
close
Corn was irregular, with some degree of
activity The market opened weak on the ex-.
celent crop conditions and large crop esti-
mates The cash situation strong. and
September showed substantial advance at one
time. The new crop features were sold more
literally. and later in the session September
also weakened. practically all the advanve be
ing lost. September closed shade higher, and
December closed lac TO &c lower.
Oats neglected. The market was in
fuenced almost entirely by corn September
closed unchanged.
Provisions were dull, but rather steady in
view Of a break in hog prices, showing weak
ness early; recovered later and closed steady.
The demand for meats good. Packers were
moderate sellers At the close September pork
was 212c lower. lard shade lower and ribs a
shade higher.
The leading futures ranged follows:

schools we shall hold the situation
Could you mark the difference between
the trained and unframed Hawaiian
girl when she becomes a wife and
mother you would not doubt this
Trained youth are the hope of tn,
churches. They will vet lift the native
churches to a higher level. Mr.. Rich
ards work with these young men is
proving of great benefit.
But there is one school whose claims
would urge above every other / re-
fer TO the y. p. VI. l.. now in the charge
OF Rev. Mr.. Leadingham. / venture to
affirm that there is nowhere in the
Hawaiian work a more important CEN
ter OF influence.
The immediate care of the native
churches must be left mainly to- native
pastors, and the more of character and
development We can give these men.
the better will they do their work.
The training we give them will decide
its quality.
1t is because so many OF our natives
are lacking in the elements that come
of study and discipline that their work
goes so haltingly.
Our first requirement then for an
advance towards better things. so far
as the Hawaiians are concerned. is a
well-equipped theological school.
One man is not sufficient To this
work. Mr.. Leadingham needs an as
sociate whose entire time and strength
shall be devoted TO the school: to- get
such man we ask for an endowment
that shall guarantee sufficient and
permanent salary.
Besides training our native pastors
this school has already become a place
for the training of Portuguese and
Chinese workers 1t might also be-
come a training school for much need
ed Japanese preachers. AS il is We
send at a large expense to Japan for
preachers. We ask you to help us train
them here.
Moreover there is a Macedonian cry
which comes to us from western
islands for missionaries Ii were worth
our while to build up this school if
only to prepare a body of men To meet
this call Never was a mission more
in need of an afficient theological
school.
We lay our wants before you. now.

REALIZES HIS GREAT MISTAKE
The Situation In the Philippines Rap.
idly Improving Since the Re-
cent Outbreak.

Washington, Feb. 1O.-There was
an almost complete release today Of the
tension under which the rapid occur
renee Of events in the Philippines has
he'd the officials of the administration
since the first startling news from Ma
Mia on Saturday night. This was
brought about through the receipt of q
bulletin from General Otis summing
up the latest results Of the fighting
he has had with the natives. The dis
patch follows:
Manila. Feb. 10.-The situation is
rapidly improving. A reconnaissance
was made yesterday to the south, sew
eral miles to Laguna de Bay, and to
the southeast eight miles, our troops
driving the ST. aggling insurgents before
them. The troops in various direc-
tions Encountered no decided opposition.
The native army is disintegrated. and
the natives are returning to the viii
lagos, displaying white flags.
"Near Calooan. six miles north of
here. the enemy made stand behind
intrenchments, and were charged by
the Kansas troops led by Colonel Funs-
tan. There was a close encounter, re-
sulting in the rout of the enemy with
heavy loss. The loss to the Kansas
regiment was Lieutenant Afford
killed. and six wounded.
ION the 4th Aguinaldo issued proc
lamation charging the Americans with
having taken the initiative and de-
clared war. Sunday he issued an
other, calling on his followers to resist
foreign invasion. His influence
throughout this section is destroyed.
He now applies for cessation of hos
tilities and q conference. have de-
clined 10 answer.
1.-THE insurgents expectation of a
rising in the city on the night of the
4th was unrealized. The provost mar
shal-general, with the admirable dis
position of his troops, defeated every
attempt. The city is quiet. Business
has been resumed. The natives are re-
spectful and cheerful. The fighting
qualities of American troops are reve-
latlon to all the inhabitants.

boundary line was at the summit, and
not at Log Cabin, released them.

Santa Mesa commenced . fusilade
which was Intellectual.
The Nebraska, Montana and North
Dakota outposts replied vigorously, and
held their ground until reinforcemente
arrived.
The Filipinos in the meantime con-
centrated at three points. Calocan, Ga
galangin and Santa Mesa.
At about / O'Clock the Filipinos
opened hot fire from all three places
simultaneously. This was supplement-
ed by the fire of the two seige guns at
Balik-Balik and by advancing their
skirmishers from Paco and Pandacan.
The Americans responded with ter
rifio fire. but owing to the darkness
they were unable to determine its effect.
The Utah light artillery finally sue
ceeded in silencing the native battery.
The Third artillery also did good work
on the extreme left. The engagement
lasted over an hour.
The United States cruiser Charleston
and the gunboat Concord, stationed off
Malabon, opened fire from their second
airy batteries on the Filipinos' position
at Calocan and kept it up vigorously.
At 2:45 there was another fusilade
along the entire line and the United
States sea-going double-turreted mont
tor Monadnock opened fire on the enc
my from of Malate.
With daylight the Americans ad-
vanced. The California and Washing
ton regiments made splendid charge
and drove the Filipinos from the works
at Paco and Santa Mesa. The Nebraska
regiment also distinguished itself. cap
turing several prisoners and one How
itzer, and a very strong position at the
reservoir, which is connected with the
waterworks.
The Kansas and Dakota regiments
compelled the enemy's right flank to
retire to Calocan.
There was intermittent firing at va
rious points all day long.
The American losses are estimated
at 30 men killed and 125 wounded.
The Igorotes, armed with bows and
arrows, made a determined stand in
the face of hot artillery fire, and LET
many dead on the field.
Several attempts were made in this
city yesterday evening to assassinate
American officers.
