MILES WILL BE VICTOR.

There will lie interesting develop
rnents this week The military court
of inquiry into the embalmed beef
charges, as well as the character of the
beef generally foisted upon our soldier.
There appears TO be we'll founded
notion that the corut of enquiry is ex
pected to be used more to injure Or
smi-ch General Miles than to discover
the inward and real facts concerning
the embalmed and rotten beef put on
the go eminent Ivy the beef combine.
There appears to have been secret
effort during the last year to discount
General Miles at every turn, both in
war and peace. There is q prevailing
opinion that the court of inquiry will
iii possible) be used to place General
Miles under a cloud. The cause of all
this is politics. 1t is to cut off the
further promotion of the General. He
as most dangerous man for the presi-
Dental nomination. He has powerful
ba king in every state in the Union.
He is probably the most generally
known soldier or American in the
United States. He has strong political
backing among the class of men who
make and Gnmake presidents. This is
the cream in the cocoanut and it will
soon be apparent. The embalmed beef
fight is much bigger fight than is
generally supposed. 1t means the
.embalming of the political as we'll as
military combine organized against the
most brilliant, successful American
general of modern times. General
Miles will win the fight. He has never
lost a Iattle on the field or against the
political Or military intrigue waged
against him for years He will be
victor this time, as he ought to be, for
he is fighting for the American soldier,
for the sons and husbands of thousands
of American families, as well as for the
good name of the army of which he is
the head.-Star.

MAusERs AND DELlRluM.
Major McCintock Corrects an His
torical Error.

Among the SO called histories of the
war with Spain. preci plated before
the war was over, upon an already
suffering public, was one by Trunbuli
White which is in reality nothing
more than badly and hastily written
description of Cuba and disjointed
newspaper accounts of the battle of
Manila bay and the aore important
land and naval engagements in and
about Cuba. The only redeeming
feature OF the history is its binding,
which is ornate if not rich. Describ
ing this peculiar effect to Mauser bull
let's, Mr.. White writes, or rather
copiss, from Richard Harding Davis,
that Lieutenant Robert Thomas of L
troop of the Rough Riders, was shot
through the leg and almost Immediate
II after became strangely and wildly
delirieus.
Major James n. McCEntock ex-
planned this phenomenon yesterday
lieutenant Thomas was wounded at
Las Guasimas soon after Major Nc
Clintock fell. Just then the New
Msxlcan contingent under Major
Elewellyn PASSED where the lieutenant
lay suffering from the thirst which
falls upon all wounded men. Thomas
called for a drink and Major Llewel-
Iyn in tho excitement of the conflict
flung him his canteen. The lieuten-
ant clutched it and never left off drink
ing until it Was half emptied. The
succeeding wonder was not that he
was delirious but that he Was alive,
for the canteen had contuiaed Spanish
RUN of the vilest variety. Though
Thomas was &c years of age that was
his first taste Of alcohol. His delirium
was ono of the incidents which came
auder the personal observation Of Mr.
Davis and that brilliant, but Eighty
and unreliable war correspondent, i'm
InediAtsly constructed a theory upon
it that Aauser bullets produce de.
lirium.
ThomaA' wound was not serious.
The bullet bored through the bone OF
thelsg without making fracture.
Els recovery was rapid and his subse-
quent KAllAntry earned him the, most
favorable nension.-Phoonix RePubli'

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
THE STATE OF GENER4L TRIDE
AND IND USTRY.
All signs Indicate Their Maintenance
III nh Unprecedented Midsu m mer Vol
"me-Heavy Bank Clearing.

'tAe~py bhhk CIearlngs.
New York, Aug. 4-Bradstreets to-
morrow will say: All signs indicate the
maintenance of general trade and in
uustry in an unprecedented midsummer
volume. Specially indicative of this are
the continued very heavy bank clear
ing returns largely increased railroad
earnings, reports of activity in all
branches of iron and steel and kindred
lines, wooden goods, boots and shoes
and cotton goods, and advices from
leading market of satisfactory open
ing of the regular fall demand, with
heavy shipments of goods on orders
The firmness of money at many cen
ters Is itself an additional evidence of
the expansion in trade now in progress.
With the exception of food products,
the price situation is generally one of
maintained strength, advances being
most numerous in the line of manufac-
tured goods or in raw materials for
manufacturing industry. Cereals are
all lower on the week, rejecting their
generally favorable crop outlook and
also some Indifference as regards for
eign buying of wheat, though expert
demand for corn has been apparently
stimulated by recent price reactions,
All classes of iron and steel are either
firmly held or tending upward. Other
metals are rather ouieter, and tin shows
some reaction from the high price
reached last week. Wool is still NOV
ing upward in sympathy with improved
demand for the manufactured article.
Activity in building is reflected in very
firm prices for lumber at the east, while
at the west further advances, particu-
larly in white pine, are noted. Cotton
is steady, pending further develop
ments in the crop situation. The boot
and shoe trade continues in good shape,
and hides are slightly higher on the
week, with. the finished product firm.
The anthracite coal trade appears to be
well under control, and recent advances
are reported maintained.

The stock Market.

New York, Aug. 4.-To-day's stock
market was largely devoted to dealings
in few industrial specialties. Under
cover of the strength in few indus
trials there was marked tendency to
realize in the railroad list but the SELL
ing pressure there was not heavy and
offers decreased and prices declined.
Union Pacific was subjected to pressure
by unconfirmed rumors of strike. The
stock broke IL points on rather liberal
offerings and closed at a net loss of a
point The preferred declined three
quarters of point But the chief move
ment Of the day was in the Tobacco
stocks and Tennessee Coal, American
Tobacco gained an extra four points.
Continental Tobacco common 33s, pre-
ferred 81 and Tennessee Coal 21A. Late
in the day prices of these were suddenly
let down from IL to 2R points, appar-
entirely with the purpose of shaking off
weak followers Of the bull movement. A
runlor of great combination of coal
and iron interests in the south was add
ed to those recently current to explain
the Tennessee Coal movement The Wig
orous advance of this stock begot some
sympathetic strength in other stocks in
the same industry. Colorado Fuel
Hooking Coal, Federal Steel, American
Smelling and a number Of other stocks
advanced from a fraction to over
point. Peoples Gas was up at one time
over point on reports Of the company's
prosperous business. There We're gains
in isolated instances elsewhere, notably
in St Paul and Omaha, Chicago Great
Western, preferred, Kansas City, Pitts
burg and Gulf, Pittsburg, c., c. and st.
Louis common and preferred, National
Biscuit and New York Air Brake rang
ing from 4 to 2R. On the other hand
Sugar was heavy most of the day on
account of the shading of prices in some
grades of the refined sugar. The local
traction stocks showed weakness
throughout and Consolidated Gas lost
3la net Rock Islands June statement
showing an increase in the surplus af-
ter charges of nearly $4,000 compared
with last June failed to hold up the
grangers. The reported large demand
for grain for export was equally inef-
fective and this group and Atch son pre-
ferred drifted downward Some depres-
sion was reflected here from London on
account of the outlook for dearer money
there and there were some reports of
money troubles In Berlin. Sterling ex-
change market here was distinctly
weak, poster rates falling a and actual
rates a for short bills and y for long
sterling. Some anxiety is felt over to-
morrow's bank statement
There is nothing in the money market
to-day to indicate easier conditions. the
bulk of the loans being made at 4 per
cent The coming holiday in London
and expected dullness in New York
prompted the closing up of many ac-
counts. To-day's speculative leaders
closed feverish and unsettled but the !
general tone was firm at, the last.
Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf first |

tivity in mortgages of Southwestern

REMOVED THE SPLEEN.
A Rare Operation Performed in New
York

New York, Aug. 4.-The very unusual
operation for the removal Of the spleen
was performed as last resort on John
German at the Presbyterian hospital
yesterday, but the patient survived on
ly few hours. German had been fight
ing with Thomas Finnan of POS East
Sixty-fifth street, who hit him in the
left breast. When first taken to the
hospital Germans condition was at
tributed to the shock and the loss of
blood. He complained of pain on the
left side of his stomach, but it was diff
ficult to make a diagnosis, as no symp-
toms Were marked. Examination devel-
oped the fact that the spleen was abnor-
NAL, and that there was much blood
in the abdominal cavity, which, the sur
geons report, esta bished reasons for a
diagnosis of ruptured spleen, and as the
patient was practically bleeding to
death, an operation was immedately
performed. An artery was opened, an
infusion of blood made, and the spleen
removed. There are cases on medical
record Of persons who have survived
such an operation, and lived without a
spleen, but they are rare-as, indeed,
the occasion for the operation seldom
arises, although as it happens it has
been performed at the Presbyterian hos
pital twice within two weeks.

WHAT oUARLEs WILL GET.
KenOsha,s FavOrite Son will Have an I'm
portant Place on Senate Committees.

The correspondent of the Milwaukee
Sentinel, in speaking of the arrange
ments of the committees of the United
States Senate for the year has the
following to say in regard to Senator
J. V. Quar1es:
Senator Quar1es, being new sena-
tor, will not, of course, be given place
on leading committees, but as has been
joking1y said, he has friend at court
in the person of Senator Spooner, and
and it will be surprising if he is not
well provided for. If the senator OBJ
tains Craftsmanship, which he prob
ably will, his places on other commit
tees will be governed by questions
relating to the interests of the senate.
It is unlikely that he will obtain place
on the commerce committee, as there is
always great pressure from older sena-
tors for this assignment. AS Mr..
Ouar1es was a soldier and Wisconsin
sions committee, it is reasonable to
suppose he will go on that committee.
The other committees in which Wis
consin has special interest are Pnb1ic
lands and Indian Affairs. The Public
Lands committee has few vacancies
while the Indian committee will be
materially changed, and the chances
are chat Mr.. Quar1es will go on chat
committee on that account.
It is probable that the caucus of the
Republicans tomorrow will agree upon
the committees, and that the list will
be announced perhaps later in the
day."
