TEA IN THE PHILIPPINES.
No Reason Why Americans should Not OBJ
tain Ii There Instead of in China

| The recent remarks of the Chinese Min

| the United States, while doubtless intend
ed to benefit indirectly the tea trade of
! his own country, may serve the opposite
purpose by drawing the attention of the
American people to another point of view
OF the subject-that of raising in the Phil
ippines the 70O000 900 pounds of tea import
ed from China in 1888, and pocketing the
$lOO00,O00 exchanged for he same with the
fiowery kingdom.

that England purchased the whole of her

MUSIC AND DRAMA.

The announcement Of the Thanksgiving
matinee and night at the Crawford thea
ter is a marked innovation in the matter
Of tbeatricaIs and is certainly of an in
teres6ng character. The attraction Will
be THE King of the Opium Ring"
play which, at the Academy of Music IN
New York, for six weeks, met with pre-,
nounced success from its novelty in con-
strucuon and absolute originality Of
ideas The play was written by Charles
E. Blaney,. author Of "a Female Drum
mer" and Charles A Taylor, a rising
young western author. AS can be sur
missed by its title, the atmosphere is els
ductly Chinese, and therefore thoroughly
Oriental in tone and action The King
of the Opium Ring IS claimed to be the
first play out on the American stage that
reflects Chinese character as it is. The
action Of the pieces takes place in san
Francisco about 1880, and deals with the
methods employed to get opium into the
United States free Of duty. The scenery
shows Dead Mans Dock, with the Golden
Gate ia the distance; the escape Of the
smuggIer's yacht. with the revenue cut
ter in pursuit; firing shots from rapid fire
guns; a Chinese underground opium den;
the Fong Quay Club and the Palace sa-
loon on Sacramento street; the heart of
Chinatown brilliantly illuminated on Chin
ese New Years night during the celebra-
ton of the day, and the assembly rooms
of a swell Chinese club IN Frisco, where,
during the festivities. vaudeville acts are
introduced by clever speciality artists.
Among the members ofthe company are
a number Of native Chinese who lend an
Oriental atmosphere to the play.

Supply Came.
QUOTATION WAS LOWER

The Wichita hog market yesterday was
IN such a state Of uncertainty that a
suggestion from one Of the leading char
acters on the market seems 10 set it
forth in the best statement. namely, that
It was quick ana devilish." This means
that when trading did commence there
was hurrah about It that wiped out
the flood of unexpected receipts very
quickly. The market quotation was
matter largely Of individual opinion, as
the bulk OF The business was done on
the close and with a landslide Of receipts,
end SO quick were sales made and at
such varying figures that il was not
easy ITO determine just the exact market
tone. The c0ncensus Of opinion, however,
was that the sales made today were
about ~ cents lower than Fridays bulk
his IS a fair setting forth of the mar
ket yesterday, since there was nothing
on Saturday on which to base a market,
and the rush of business on the close
Yesterday was also misleading. But a
bare % cents lower than Friday ex-
presses it about as well as it could be
given. There were no hogs offered yes
terday, however, that were as good as
Fridays offerings, although the stock
yesterday was on the whole very fair.
Ing In sight but a few small punches Of
wagon hogs Of low grade generally, but
just the same selling at very good
prices Dispatches from other hog mar
kets indicating apprehensi0ns Of the next
day and consequent lower bids for hogs,
had it's effect on this market, and the
feeling here, before hogs arrived was
that lower quotations were the standard
Of judging Toward the close, however,
The rush of car hogs commenced and
then trading became more active and
buyers wanted all that was in sight Eve
erything on sale was taken, and it was
rumored before the close that 10 or a
dozen more cars were due TO arrive late,
What was in sold. and they sold well 1T
YVES very satisfactory repetition of the
big Fr6ay of last week which was the
banner day for long time. and the
prophecy venured at that time seems
verified that it was the commencing Of
heavy run Of hogs. They VIII all be
taken, and at the best prices possible.

New York. Nov. 2S.-The reactonsry
tendency which weighed on the stock
market during the latter part Of last
week was distinctly overcome today and
prices resumed their upward course. The
advance was By no means Uniform the
striking gains being confined to compar-
atively few stocks. In some stocks the
resistance was not more than enough to
enable them only to hold their own,
while a small number by positive weak
ness gave a slight irregularity to the
market The course Of prices was by no
means determined at once. Bear traders
operated on the short side Of the mar
ket for a considerable period after the
opening. They based their position on
the argument that holders OF stocks
were inclined 10 sell on Saturday on
the strength resulting from the bank
statement, but 1t was not long before
they discovered that they had small
