of trade saws:

n. G. Dun & Co. S weekly review
of trade says:
The sky is still cloudless, and no
disquieting change has come during
the week. In spite of more warlike
news about South Africa, the Bank
of England behaves as If the worst
possible has been FULLY provided for
and this country has no reason to
fear trouble from that source unless
English markets have so overloaded
as to need help. The marketing of
domestic products, both farm and
manufactured, continues surpris-
ingly large for the season.
The new possessions, taken TO-
gether, are returning in revenue al
ready more than it costs to clean
and govern them. The west and
south still behave as if it would be
impairment for New York to offer
money for crop moving and are still
bidding for commercial loans here.
Failures are few, strikes scarce and
readily settled, and the passage OF
Sept. without pl assure means rea-
sonable safety tor months ahead.
Cotton has risen quarter OF
cent since annual reports, regard
less of these and owing to bad &C.
counts from Texas.
Neither philosophical explana-
tons of the rise in iron and steel

PRISONERS SURRENDERED.
Tribal Discord Among Philippine Insurg-
ents--Rebels Revolt.


MANILA, Oct. 1.-The insurgent com
mission arrived from Angeles last even
ing and delivered up the fourteen
American prisoners, all enlisted men.
1t is reported from Iloilo that the
Tagals arrested General Virayan,
charging him with being traitor.
Tribal discord is growing. Many
rebel soldiers have. revolted and many
European prisoners are escaping.
The prisoners unanimously praised
their treatment. One man said:
I'VE have been given the best the
country afforded, fine houses for quar-
tiers, servants, good food, plenty of
wine and monthly allowance. Aguin-
aldo visited us and shook hands. Three
of the boys refused to shake hands
with him"
Judging from the stories of the pris-
oners they have been lionized by the
people. They report that five sailors,
survivors of Naval Cadet Woods party,
arrived at Tarlac Wednesday. Though
small Importance is attached to their
Judgment, they agree in saying that
the Filipinos all say that they are
tired of the war, but will fight for
independence to the last"
The released soldiers also say that
the idea of Independence has taken
firm hold of the Filipinos and they
threaten, if conquered, to exterminate
the Americans by assassination.
Aguinaldo seemed popular among all
the people, the prisoners said. The
country, they say, is full of rich crops.

Fort DODGE, Sept. 3O.-Aaron F..
Boylan, the defaulting postmaster at
Hubbard, was brought to Fort Dodge
from Hubbard by Deputy United States
Marshal Vanderver and was given a
hearing before United States Commits
sioner Johnson and pleaded guilty to
the charges made against him. Boy
Ian, it seems, has been running a jew
elry business in connection with his
postmastership and appropriated the
funds of the office for use in his bust

he was bound over to the United States

DEwEY'S LONGEST SPEECH.
Made In New York When Presented with
Medal.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-Admiral Dewey
made the longest speech of his life when
he responded to Mayor Van Wyck' S
welcome to this city last evening. The
admiral was very nervous. He said:
'Of course, it would be needless for
me to attempt to make a speech, but
my heart appreciates all you have said.
How it is that you have overestimated
my work so much cannot understand.
1t is beyond anything | can conceive of
why there should be such an uprising
of the country. l simply did what any
naval captain in the service would have
done, | believe
Admiral" said the mayor, mo
tongue can ever utter or pen write an
overestimate of what you did for your
country.
THE city of New York has had made
to commemorate this reception to you,
the hero of the Spanish American war,
a badge, a facsimile of which they de-
Sire | should present to you in comem-
Grafton of the event
The mayor, as he said this, handed
to the admiral a diamond and gold re-
plica of the medal struck by the com
mittee.
That is too beautiful, but as you
have presented it to me | will be very
proud to wear it..

An Impressive Scene Takes Place On

An Impressive Scene Takes Place On
the Olympia.
NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-Commodore
George w. Baird, who sailed with Far
ragut and Dewey in the west gulf
squadron in 1861, visited the Olympia
yesterday. He unrolled a package and,
displaying faded blue admiral's en-
sign, said to Admiral Dewey:
Admiral, i wish to present to you
the first admiral's flag ever broken
out in the navy of this country That
grand old admiral whose name and
memory all revere first hoisted this
ensign upon the good ship Hartford,
before New Orleans, and afterwards
upon the Franklin, and since it came
down from that masthead it has never
been whipped by wind or worn by the
elements. You, the worthy successor
of that great admiral whose tact you
SO successfully followed short time
ago, deem the proper person for Far
raguts mantle to fall upon"
Dewey was deeply affected and tears
were in his eyes as he gazed at the SOU
venir. 1t was several moments before
he could find his voice. He finally
said:
"Ill fly it. III fly it at the mast
head. III fly it in parades. III fly it
always, and-and--and when l strike
my admirals flag this will be the flag
j will strike"
This was about the most impressive
scene that has occurred on the Olympia
since her arrival, and for some time no
one spoke. The Neutrality-suspicious. re-
manned on board chatting with the
admiral for an hour.

Latest Pretoria Advices Are to hat
LONDON, Sept. 3O.-Thc Times Pre-
toria special says: 1t is generally ex-
pected that a state of war will be pro-
claimed at any moment. Kruger
granted me an interview yesterday.
He declared he had done all that was
possible for the sake of peace. He ac-
cepted Chamberlain's own offer Of a
common inquiry, the thread of nego-
tiations. 1t was impossible to accedc
to the dispatch of the 18TH. Such n
course would have given the land and
people into the hands of strangers. As
it was, his seven years proposal would,
according to the field cornet books, en-
franchise $4,000 persons, which was
more than the whole number of old
burghers, yet not one has come for
ward to take it. The outlanders never
really wanted the franchise. From the
first they refused TO go on and the
commanders registered themselves as
aliens. In conclusion, asked if there
was still possibility of peace. No =
he replied, adding, after a pause, 'un-
less the other side will do something
to make peace possible"

Another Grand Demonstration in Honor

New YORK, Oct. 1.-The land parade
yesterday capped the climax. The
city, state and nation united in one
vast demonstration, worthy of the hero
of Manila. The earth trembled be-
meath the tread of so, 600 men and the
air was torn with the shouts of mil
lions. Thousands of proud men of our
land and sea forces, militia of foreign
states and the veterans of the civil and
Spanish American wars swelled the
procession and gave it the dignity in
size that it boosted in sentiment. Walls
of people, miles long, stretched down
the line of march on either side, 4
dense, impregnable mass. Along
Broadway and on Fifth avenue from
Fiftyninth street to the Washington
arch at Fortieth street, where the
parade disbanded, was solidly packed
with spectators, who overlooked into
the buildings, windows and onto the
roof lines, sat in embrasures and
crowded scaffolding.
