last spring and summer are furnishing all
that viii be necessary.

here now are in such regular running or
der that they are no longer a novelty
The passenger travel is larger than was
expected, and the daily stage through
Olaa from the Olaa terminus of the rail-

erably to the travel and convenience oil

Sioux Fails, May LIT took no vote
to decide who was the Presidential
choice of the National Populist Con
vention yesterday, for Bryan was nam
ed by acclamation amid much racket as
becomes gathering Of like faith in
politics. Senator Allen made the
speech of nomination. His voice was
drowned by wild cheers before he could
utter word, for the Senator carries
the mark of Bryan upon him and the
convention knew what was coming
when he was introduced.
Charles A. Towne of Minnesota
who is said to be the choice of the
Democratic leaders, was placed i'm
nomination at the night session, along
with many others and he was finally
chosen by acclamation.
The nomination of Bryan came ait
the close of the reading and adoption
of the platform.
AT the conclusion of its reading Jerry
Simpson moved that the platform be
adopted as read and the committee
discharged. The motion received half
a dozen seconds. A standing vote was
called for, and amid great cheering
every delegate in the tent arose.

Toledo, Ohio, May 10. 1900.


William Jennings Bryan has ar
rived in Toledo from Detroit, and
was received by large delegation of
citizens headed by bands of music and
special committee composed of re-
preventative Democrats from all over
Northern Ohio.
While here he submitted to an inter-
view, and took occasion to express
himself very decidedly regarding the
coming national election, which, he
declares, will surely result in an over
whelming Democratic victory.
THE Democratic party is sure to
win" Mr.. Bryan said, without the
slightest hesitation "The people are
with us this year and they are in sym
paihy with the principles which shall
be embodied in the Kansas City plat
form. and which represent the feelings
Of the great mass of American people. :"
Why do you think so?"
Why do think so? Because every
principle of the Democratic party is a
positive principle more positive than
was the declaration of the Republican
party in '96, and while nv party has
grown all the while in its firmer ad-
herence to principle and positive de-
claration, the Republican party is
'treking' in just the opposite direction;
1t is less positive, and it's adherence to
its own heretofore fixed declaration of
faith is now quite disregarded.
THE PHILIPPINE WAR.
what is your view of the Philip
pine WARP"
lit is exactly what it has been ever
since the Filipinos were denied the
right of free government. l believe
that the Republicans are wrong be-
cause they have taken the God-given
right of liberty and self-government
away from a people who have been
fighting for it for years, and are so de-
termined that they are perfectly will
ling to sacrifice themselves to the last
man in order to secure it. This will
be the position of the Democratic party
upon this question.
Imperialism always means a trans
gression upon some one. Neither our
government nor that of any other
country can sweep away the sover-
eighty of a conquered people and sub
stitute its own sovereignty for it with
out violating the laws of God and man.
NO CHANGE ON MONEY.
Il hold exactly the same views ON
the money question always have held
I do not think the great body of Demo-
Gratis have changed any more than I
have, and there is no occasion for the
desertion of any great truth that makes
up the Democratic code of principles.
"I think that Ohio is much more
likely to go Democratic this year than
is Nebraska ever likely to go Republi-
can again.
"I am sure that the signs OF the times
are very much more favorable to
Democratic success, and both the press
and people are considering Democratic
doctrine more kindly this year than
they did in &c."
There we're thousands of outsiders
in the city from morning until mid
night. Mr.. Bryan was escorted to the
hotel, where an informal reception was
held in the rotunda, and he shook
hands steadily for over two hours, after
which he spoke briefly. During the
ater portion of the day another infor-
nal reception was held in the parlors
of the hotel, which was attended by a
great many ladies. u

Mining Stocks.
PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, April 20.-The heavy
Argentine shipments were the chief
factor in wheat to-day, the closing be-
Gig a shade to Ac over Corn closed
h@Ac down and oats a shade to NC
depressed. Provisions at the close
were 10 to 15c down.
Wheat traders climbed into the pit
at the opening of the session with their
view concerning the value of wheat
lowered from a &c to a half cent. This
was due to the fact that Argentine last
week shipped $780, 900 bushels, that
cables were lower and the weather
conditions remained the fast friend of
the crop. Having given this exhibi-
ton of being awake, the speculative
trade proceeded to slumber. For
hours-in fact, nearly the whole ses-
sion-the fluctuations were narrow as
a cable slot. On the fair face of the
crop prospect there of course remain
ed a wart in the shape Of a rather
poor outlook in Michigan, Ohio and In
diana and the consideration of this
matter of crop history so affected one
speculator that he covered a short line
of 400, 900 bushels. but the others
only smiled and ch~eerfully sold it to
him. The cash business was fair.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1900-04-21

150, 900 bushels here, SO, 900 bushels of
it for direct export. New York put
the export business at 80 loads and
Philadelphia reported 35 loads. This
had a s~teadying influence which held
to the end. The spread between May
and July widened to 1hc during the
afternoon and there was considerable
changing" The local crowd sold
May and took July, while the elevators
in a moderate way reversed the action.
Primary receipts were 376, 900 bushels
compared with $4,000 bushels last
year. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
262 cars against 271 a veal ago Lo-
cal receipts were AZ cars, none of con
tract grade. Clearances in wheat and
flour were equal to III, 900 bushels.
May opened A@hc lower at 65h@
65Ac to Csc, advanced to 65A @65%c
and closed Ac down at 65Ac. July
began the session &c lowed at 66%@
66Hc to $3.50, touched 66%c and clos
ed a shade down at 66%c.
In corn the market largely belonged
to the scalpers. Trade was quiet and
the range narrow. The opening was
from Ac to Rc under yesterdays clos
ing figures but the close showed a part
OF this recovered. The Argentine ship
ments were larger and this together
with the good weather and lower ca
bles was a factor. Local receipts were
20l cars. The country movement was
reported still light. May sold between
38@38Bc and 3815c closing hc down
at 37asc; July between 39@39Ac, clos
ing B@Ac depressed at 1914 @39Ac.
The provisions market was weak and
lower and not actively affected by
weaker hogs, the lower grain market
and liquidation which met no particu-
lar demand. Outside selling was a fea-
ture. May pork sold from S12 80 to
$12 S21a, closing 10c down at SIP 80;
July from $13 10 to SIP 95 and closed
15c lowed at s13 90. May lard ranged
between 81 17k and 81 0712, closing
12hc depressed at 81 10; July from
81 TN to 81 Is with the close 12R@
15c lower at 81 17h@s7 20. May ribs
sold between 81 05 and 81 07h, closing
1001212c down at 81 05; July between
81 1214 and 81 O2k@7 O5 with the
close 10@12hc reduced at 81 05.
Oats were weak, a matter of SYM
pathy with corn and wheat, the fine
weather and increased liquidation.
The volume of trade was augmented
somewhat by the decline but not suf-
ficienty to create anything like excite
ment. Receipts were 151 cars. May
ranged from 23Ac to 224c and closed
Ac lower at 23c: July from 2Sh@
22Bc closing a shade lower at $50
231sc. There was some changing of
May for July at the opening, May held
the premium, but when the market
closed there was a shade in favor of
the deferred future.
Estimated receipts tomorrow:
Wheat, 35 cars; corn, $50 cars: oats.
las cars; hogs, $4,000 head.

REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK, April 20.-R. g. Dun
& Co.'s Weekly Review OF Trade to-
morrow will say:
Formal reduction of S. per on in
prices of plates and bars and closing or
mills by the American Steel & Wire
Company have filled the week with
surprises. In the stock market the
market for steel and iron products
changes have begun and the end OF
which cannot well be foreseen.
Apart from the disturbance in spec
ulation there has been produced a
measure of distrust regarding prices
that are maintained by the great COM
binations which pay for the present,
tend to deter buying. In the iron bus
mess the formal reductions were al
most wholly anticipated in actual sales.
Some urgent and important contracts
have been made including that for the
New York tunnel, requiring 10000 tons
at prices not stated, but it is known
that many others have been deferred
until the prospect is clearer.
Failures for the week have been 1874
in the United States, against 1S4 last
year, and II in Canada, against 22 last
year.
