THE WHEAT CROP.

The damage to the wheat crop oil
the Northwest is an event of chief im-
pOitance. How exteneiVe the loss may
prove, in view of widely conflicting ac-
counts. can only be judged from the
speculative markets in which informa-
ton gathered at the West has caused
a remarkable advance, at Chicago Is
cents in ten days. and the price at New
York has advanced IL cents per bushel
though for September option ,. ly 8
cents The belief is that so large
part OF the spring crop has been xii ed
as to reduce a yield expected to be
closest to the largest on record to con-
siderably less than the world has re-
quired during The crop year now end.
ing Until within The past three
years it woull have been reasoned that
any material advance in price would
neutralize the foreign conditions which
had caused exports of about $50 mil
| on bushels of wheat, -four included,
in the closing year, after 222 million
bushels in the previous year and PIT
million bushels in the year 1898, besides |
exports Of 213 million bushels of corn
in the closing year against III million |
last year and PIP million in the pre-.
Vious year. But tho facts seem to in
1icate more extensive and lasiing in
,rease of foreign demand than has
been considered probable Other sour
'es OF heavy export have been found
disappointing. The Uoited States
continues to show enormous powers of
Increase, if supported by prices which,
ntil recent years, would hardly have
cen regarded remarkably high. ri
be coming crop falls much below ex-
eclations the dem4nd for it may prove
uprising, even though prices eyerage
lore than has been expected.

A NOTED NEGRO.

Suppose Bryan were elected PRESS
dent; what would happen What sor
OF President would we have in>him
In the first place, we should have {
thoroughly honest maa in the White
House. This is fact conceded by
Mr.. Bryan's political foes as we'll as by
his political friends. And it is mole
than the Republicans can say of every
candidate for President put up by
their party. o
We should have President of un-
questioned ability. MIR. Bryan has
shown himself man of parts. He is
not only brilliant orator, he has
demonstrated his possession of the
quantities of craftsmanship.
We should have President who is
personally urselfsh. Mr.. Bryan is
devoted to. principles rather than to the
advancement of his Individual interests.
He is broad-mlnded man.
We should have for President man
of tact and good humor. Mr.. Bryan
would enter the White House without
enemies topunish or grudges TO satisfy. |
He carries no knife
And touching the policies and issues |
upon which this election turns, we
should have a President devoted to the |
imperial theory OF government; to the |
protection OF the interests of the great
body OF tie people as against monopo-
listlc cabals.

BLOODY FIGHT AT TEN TsiN.

Tien Tsin, July 10, via Che Foo, July
Is, and Shanghai, July 16.-At 2 clock
this afternoon 1000 of the allied troops
were attempting to storm the walled
city. The attack began at daylight. It's
success is doubtful. The Chinese on
the walls are estimated conservatively
at 10000. They are pouring terrible
hail OF artillery, life and machine gun
fire upon the attackers. The merican,
Japanese, British and French troops
are attacking from the west and the
Russians from the east.
The Americans suffered terribly. As
the Associated Press representative left
tie field the chief surgeon OF the Ninth
Infantry said conservative estimate
was that 25 per cent of the Americans
we're hit Colonel Emerson II. Liscum
is reported to have been MORALLY
wounded as he was walking in front of
his troops. Major Regan and Captains
Buckmiller. Wilcox and Noyes are
among the wounded. The marines
losses include Captain Davis, killed,
and Lieutenants Butler, Leonard and |
several officers wounded. Officers de-
clared that it was hotter than Santiago.
r When the correspondent left, the
Americans weae lying in the plain, be-
tween the " all and the river, under an
,nflading and a direct fire. 1t was
l;ficult for them to advance or retire.
The correspondent counted 800 woun-
led men of all nationalities.
