Grain Letter.

Chicago, Oct 23.-The wheat market
opened firm and induced some buying.
Tho market should do some better to
say the least. Short sellers around 70
don't show the most conservative judg-
ment and one could intelligently argue
there was more room in bulling wheat
now for profit than selling it short.
Lack of moisture in the winter wheat
belt is apt to become quite specula-
tive factor. Our market should bring
pretty fair cables in the morning. There
is more liquidation OF December for

Plans for Gen. Wheeler.

Chicago, ILL.,. July "A special
to the Record from Washington
says:
Gen. Wheeler will receive orders
this week to go to the Philippines.
His particular assignment will be
determined upon when the war de-
partment has heard from Gen.
Otis, Secretary Alger observed to-
day: All that | can say about
Gen. Wheeler at this time. is that
he has asked to be sent to the Philip
pines. What service he may per-
form there will depend upon Major
Gen. Otis.'

HANNA AIRS his VIEWS.
Predicts Victory for Republicans and
Disaster for Democrats.


London, July 3.-Senator Hanna
completed the first ten days of his
stay in England at Windsor,
where he witnessed a military re-
view yesterday afternoon and
caught his first glimpse of the
queen. He has enjoyed London
immensely and his health has been
so greatly benefited that he has
postponed his visit to Paris for
another week.
I am delighted with the out
door life in England" Mr.. Hanna
said, and with the wise methods
born of experience, which teaches
the leaders in politics and business
here to limit their working hours
and take every opportunity for rest
and recreation.
/ have not talked American
politics with English newspaper
men, but | am free to say that |
believe the old ticket will be re-
nominated by the republicans next
year and that it will be re elected.
| anticipate little opposition to the
first part of this proposition, and |
have no doubt the American people
will decide the latter part as they
did three years ago.
My reason for this belief is
based on the fact that the United
States is now entering on a re-
newed era of prosperity. Every
promise of the republican party
has been kept. Every prediction
fulfilled. There is not a man in
the United States today out of
work and who wants work. This
is the normal condition. CONNER
eial prosperity is based on conf
dencs and the only thing which
can destroy the confidence now
prevailing is change of admins
tration"

JESTER WAS STOLEN.
Takeu from jail to Special Trsla with
out knowledge of Court.

Oklahoma, July Sunday
morning about 3 o'clock a. m.
Alexander Jester, in charge of
Sheriff Trousdale, of Pottawatomie
county, Deputy Howard Smith,
Attorney l.. e. Pittman and Sher-
iff Nelson, of Anderson county,
Missouri, on a special train, ar
rived in this city enroute to Mexico,
Missouri, where Jester, alias w.
II. Hill, is to be tried for the MUIR
der of Gilbert Gates. Sheriff Mel
son was met here by Sheriff Sim
mons, of Wichita. and they with
Jester in charge, left for the north
on the early morning train.
The removal of Jester at this
time is surprise, as his further
hearing in the habeas corpus pro-
ceedings was set for July s.
The two sheriffs, with Jester in
charge, were forced to stay here a
couple of hours awaiting the north
bound train. Several people talk
ed with the old man. who was so
feeble that he had TO be assisted
even when he moved. He talked
freely when questioned about his
case. giving minute details about
his marriage in Texas in 1870 be-
fore the murder was committed.
The old man was at a loss to know
how he came to be taken away
without finishing his trial.
Tecumseh, July 3-The removal
of Jester from this country before
his trial is finished, seems to be
without authority. County At
torney Pittman took the response
billty of the removal and the pris-
oner was taken from the Jail about
midnight Saturday, driven to
Shawnee and turned over to the
sheriff from Missouri. The
sheriff took the prisoner onto a
special train for Missouri.
The attorneys for the defense
will file information against the
jailor, county attorney and sheriff
charging them with contempt.
1t is the opinion that Jester will
be brought back here until his
habeas corpus proceedings are
completed.

Good His Deficiencies.
Washington, July 3.-General
Otis has replied to the inquiries
made by the department as to how
many men are required to ill the
regiments now in the Philip
pines. The text of the message
has not yet been given to
the public, but General Corbin
says Otis reply indicates that his
calculations substantially agree
with the departments About
5000 are needed to fill the regular
regiments and :, 900 for the volun-
teer regiments More than enough
troops are on hand to make good
these deficiencies.
Washington, July 3.-There are
still II 900 volunteers in the Phil
ippines and will be sent home as
soon of possible.
Washington, July 3 3-General
Harrison Gray Otis, of California,
who served as brigadier general of
volunteers in the Philippines, pays
very high compliment to Major
General Otis. He says the general
is a great commander and is the
right man in the right place and
that the war has been handled
with skill and wisdom. He thinks
the commander should have So
900 troops. With that number he
could subdue the F'ilipinos during
the next dry season. He says the
men now there can easily defeat |
the Tagals in any number of en-
gagements, but being without gov
ernment or organization a defeat |
simply scatters them, to appear
somewhere else. They will be
crowded so hard when the troops |
are once more able to take the
field that the Filipinos will sue for |
peace.

While in Columbus this week the
writer met several Logan boys who

learn that the Plow Company which
moved its plant from here is ex-
periencing considerable trouble over
their oil furnaces. The buildings
erected Tor the company are low
squatty affairs with insufficient yen-
tilation and no stacks erected to
carry off the gases and smoke from
the furnaces and In consequence
several of the boys were informed
are down sick.
The boys told US that unless
stacks were built for the furnaces,
the employees could never stand 1t.
The smoke is so dense In the shops
that person can not see further
than twenty feet. AS far as work is
concerned the boys say, and we glad
to publish the fact, that the COM
pany have all the work they can do,
working from forty to fifty mon ten

town are only working eight and ten

DEN|ALS FROM GERMANY.
No Truth in the Report That
They Are Aiding the
Filipinos.
WHAT Won BULOW. SAYS.
Rumors Are Not Justified by Any.
thing That Has Been Done by
the Government.

Origin OF tho Report Probably Due to
Action of Three German Merchants in
Manila--United States officials Feel sure
Hamann Statement.
Berlin, Jan. 19--Baron Won Bulow.
Imperial Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs, personally authorizes the state
ment that reports that Germany is aid
Ing the Filipinos are not justified by
anything Germany has done, is doing
or is preparing to do.
Legation Councillor Hamann, of the
Foreign Office being empowered to
speak for the Government, supplement-
ed the above statement as follows:
THE only possible explanation of the
way in which such rumors may have
originated we find in despatch re-
ceived this morning from Herr Krue-
ger, our Consul at Manila"
Herr Hamann then read this dispatch,
the gist Of which is that early last No
vember three unimportant German
dealers sent to a Filipino newspaper a
statement that they had always been
satisfied with the treatment they had
received from the Filipinos, and hoped
that the good relations would continue.
Despite the fact that the German col
onies at Manila and Hong Kong prompt
ly issued declaration asserting that
these three Germans in no way repre-
sented the views of the colonies, and
assuring the Americans of sympathy,
the incident was used as handle to
impute anti-American sentiment to
Germans in the Philippines.
So far as the doings of the German
Government and navy are concerned,
Herr Hamann said positively that alb
solutely nothing had occurred which
could be construed as hostility toward
the plans of the Americans or as con-
nivance with those of the Filipinos.
