GEN. MERRlAM'S REPORT.
Military Departments Reduced In Strength
to Meet the Demands NJ Far-
eign Service.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Some idea OF
the extent to which the military de-
partments of the United States have
been reduced in strength to meet the
demands of foreign service, is con-
veyed by the report Of Brig. Gen.
Henry c. Merriam, commanding the
department of Missouri. So few are
the officers on duty in the department
that one officer of the regular line, an
artillery officer, Lieut.. Delmare Skier
rett, beside being first Lieutenant of
the Third artillery, is acting captain,
an acting judge advocate, chief ord
nance officer, chief signal officer and
acting engineer officer of the depart
ment of Missouri, making separate re-
ports in these various capacities. Gen.
Merriam reports satisfactory condi-
ton of affairs in his department and
says:
IL am glad to note that all Indiar
tribes residing within this department
or contiguous to it have continued to
be quiet and peaceable during the
past year, as during the previous year,
so that no calls have been made for
troops in connection Herewith. From
all reports received it is also noted
that progress is being made by all Of
the tribes in the direction of civiliza-
ton. 1t is especially gratifying to re.
port the quiet behavior and progress
in agriculture and stockraising by the
Apache prisoners of war, now located
at Fort Sill, Ok. OF all the tribes en-
countered the Apaches have been re-
garded as the least promising. In
fact, twenty years ago no one would
have ventured to predict the advance
ment these Indians have now actually
made. The Indian prisoners, by their
good behavior, have earned the good
will and deserve liberal treatment and
assistance at the hands Of the govern.
ment."

Cec,l Rhodes' Sentiments.

Cape Town, Oct. 11.-Cecil Rhodes
received an ovation yesterday when
he assumed the presidency of the con.
gress of the South African league.
During the course of his address he
attributed the South African war to
the "mugwumps" and said that but
for them Mr.. Kruger would never
have dared to send an ultimatum to
Great Britain. He then said: "Now
that the battle is over, the disputes
on the origin of the war ought tc
cease. The league should support
three points, the supremacy of the
flag, equal rights and show the Dutch
that there is no feeling against them. y

TIE COUNTRY'S BUSINESS.
1t Ia Fully Equal to the Corresponding
Period Of Lat Year-Wheat and Corn
Shipments-Failures

New York, Oct. 13.-Bradstreet's
says: Though some measures of bust
ness volume and value make unfayor-
able comparison with year ago, and
speculation is certainly on reduced
scale in nearly all lines, other regis
tiers of trade activity are still very fa-
vorable, and it is hard to resist the
conclusion that with few notable ex-
ceptions, the actual business of the
country is, as rule, fully equal to-,
If not slightly in excess of the corre-
spending period of 1899. This, too, is
the case in spite of the distinctly re-
pressive tendency exercised by the
present presidential campaign. Prices
of staples as whole are firm, after
q sustained advance for a month past,
succeeding a summer Of quiet steadi-
ness, but unhealthiness of the short
side in speculation has been brought
forcibly to the attention of dealers in
number Of staples, notably hog prod
ucts and faxseed.
The event of the week in the iron
and steel trade has been the taking
of 100000 tons Of rails by the Pennsyl-
vania at SEQ per ton, announced on
Friday. Despite a decrease of over
20 per cent in the current pig iron
production from four months ago,
furnace stocks are reported increas-
ing and prices are rather weak.
Wheat, including flour, shipments
for the week aggregate 4,292,S55 BUSH
els, against 4,459,1 1857 bushels last week.
From July / to date this season wheat
exports are 51,514,522 bushels, against
G0,965,047 bushels last season, and ST.

ports for the week aggregate 2,S96,O37
bushels, against 9,364,2t9 bushels last
