Wheat has acted queerly the past
week There have been changes such as
have not occurred previously within the
recollection Of the Oldest dealers. First
the deferred futures advanced and then
declined. Then September prices ad-
vanced and receded. These changes oc-
Cured without apparent cause, as there
were no features of the market through
out the week that would ordinarily cause
the average dealer to give attention
thereto. The bears have taken advan-
tage Of each opening and have made a
few successful raids on prices, only to
be compelled to seek cover before accom-
plishing any gains to speak Of. The close
Saturday found wheat at the leading CEN
tiers about where it was at the close of
the previous week.
CORN AND OATS.
Corn and oats have followed in the wake
Of wheat, but with changes that have
been of less spread In fact prices of
corn and oats are not materially different
at the close of the week than they were
at the opening. There has been fair de-
mand for corn, while oats have ruled
about steady as to sales.
STOCKS AVERAGED LOWER.
The stock market has been governed
largely by the StrlngenCy OIL IlOuSy IllC
past week First fears of an unfavorable
bank statement gave the bears the de-
sired opportunity to organize raid, and
later the announcement of the disappear
ance Of the bank surplus in New York so
strengthened their position that the bulls
were unable to offset their constant at
tacks While there has been nothing like
a panic, there has been a monetary con-
dition prevailing that has had a decidedly
deterrent effect upon those who have the
most supreme confidence in the future Of
the standard securities. Railroads have
perhaps suffered more the past week than
at any time in recent months-not to any
alarming degree, but in a way that has
made bull operations absolutely unde-
sirable, and unsafe. With the arrange
ments now proposed to be made to ease
the money market there may be a revul-
sion of feeling. Nothing but the strength
of standard securities due to their solidity,
and especially can this be applied to the
railroads, has prevented serious losses to
holders.

Industrial Improvement Checked
by the Lack of Communicate ton
between the Important Centers of
Trnde-RaiIway Construction SuG-
Gested as IL Means of Stimulating
the Revival of business.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE war de-
partment today made public an abstract
of the report CT Gen. Wilson, commanding
the Cuban provinces of MatanZas and
Santa Clara Gen. Wilson gives large
amount of statistical information regard
ing the provinces and their products
which will be of interest to Americans
intending to do business in the island. lie
says that social coalitions have been much
ameliorated since the American occupa-
ton, but there are still many destitute to
be cared for and there is a great need
for roads These will facilitate communal
cation between the important towns and
allow the freer movement of staple prod
acts such as sugar and tobacco, which
is now almost interdicted by the lack OF
anything except the poorest sort of pack
trails.
Gen. Wilson reports that railroad build
ing will be cheaper than making Wider
roads, and recommends lire to connect
Sancti Spiritus with Placetas. He says
that this road could be built for $4,000
a mile, a distance of forty miles He
saws that there are other roads which
are very much needed, ard there is also
necessity for a bridge over the river
Danuji, one of the largest rivers in the
island, which is navigable between Rodas
and the bay of Cienfuegos.
BY far the most important product In
Santa Clara, Gen. Wilson reports, is
sugar, of which the province furnished
in 1889 AZ per cent of the total
exports from the island The provinces
! of Santa Clara and MatanZas together
furnished in 1898 81 per cent of
the total sugar production of Cuba. The
! war left in operation forty-one sugar
factories and twenty-one others not IN
| operation but in workig order. About
| eighty-seven were destroyed.
The crop of tobacco in MatanZas this
year amounted to $4,000 bales. Gen.
| Wilson says the revival of agriculture has
| progressed rapidly In spite of discourage
ing circumstances. The people are greatly
in need of draft animals, while pigs, sheep
and fowl have entirely disappeared. The
native mules and horses at present are
the best adapted to local use owing to
the very bad condition of the roads, but
when this is improved American horses
will be N demand.
Coffee culture has been almost aban-
dOned for a number of years. Consid-
cradle interest is now being taken in it's
revival. The value of sugar land ranges
fror. So tc $50 acre but the foreign in
weston will be at a. disadvantage as com
pared with the native in the examination
of titles until responsible companies are
established to look up deeds and grants.

POISONED WEAPONS.
How Ba,rbar0us Nations Make Sure
Of Dealing Death.


La Nature.
From the age of stone up to the time
when the art Of killing ones neighbor led
to the discovery of powder and firearms,
primitive peoples, owing to the INSULT
cheney Of their weapons to cause prompt
death. have invented means of giving
them poisonous qualities. Poisoned weap-
ons, whether they are arrows knives
lances or what not. may get their fatal
properties from either vegetable or ami
NAL poisons. The South American In
dams use curaTe; the natives of India,
InGo-China, BoTneO and the MOluccas en-
ply Cor rather did Employ the upas to
poison their weapons; the negroes of the
Soudan and Congo still make use of a
poison extracted from different varieties
of strophanthus called m boumou or inc,
according to the regions where it is en-
plOyed; the people of South Africa, the
NDTis and the Banjiris, use their ar
rows, after long burial in decomposing
Corpses. TO communicate blood poisoning
which results in speedy death; in Ocean,
lea the natives of New Caledonia, the
Hebrides and the Solomon group give
their enemies lockiaw by soaking their
arrows in marshes containing large quan-
titles of the bacillus of tetanus.
The first three kinds Of poison are prac-
tiCally of vegetable origin, though the
local medicine men mix with their prep
aratiors red ants, snakes venom, toads'
eyes, etc; they are the characteristic
alkaloids of plants, which serve as the
basis Of a deadly poisonous mixture
Curare, upas and m boumou have as their
principal clements plants whose species
vary with the tribe. and which all belong
TO the strychnine family. The three last
named poisons, except that of the South
African negroes are of microbial origin

control the movements of the eyes, and

The old idea that the squirting child

that glasses are often necessary, but
that the child may require teaching, at
some trouble, to use the squirting eye Is
a new idea to many. Il is easily grasped,
however, ard must be graspcd if our

with which directions have been carried
