shipments none. The supply was very
light, not enough to be of any Importance
to buyers; consequently there was but lit
tie business transacted. not sufficient to
test the strength Of the market. Outside
markets were reported strong and higher,
which gave a stonger ton to the trade
than at the close of last week. Indications
are more favorable for the near future.

Hogs-Receipts. 1000; shipments, 500. The
receipts of hogs were small, and there
was no improvement in quality compared
with the close of last week. Shippers
did not have many orders. and conse-
quently the competition between buyers
was only fair, but a good clearance was
made at quotably steady prices compared
with the close of last week. There was
a very slow demand for hogs that were
not strictly corn fed. and they had to sell
possibly at least 20 per cent. lower than
strictly corn fed grades. Local packers
finally bought most of the supply; a good
clearance was made. and the market closed
steady at opening prices. Quotations:

SILVER MOT so DEAD.

Ur,thc ughtful people i'll Nevada are
adm. ting that silver is a dead and
lost cause predict that it will be
the !, ,ramount issue in 1904, along
witt! ariff reform. The Republicans
now Omit that Mr.. Bryan was right
in 9o, by saying that the causes
which made silver the paramount is
sue ii 1896 have been removed by the
imp, rcedented discoveries and pro-
due, Of gold, and that the gold pre-
duct has fully supplied the demand
that existed in 1896 for more money.
The legitimate deduction from the
fore 8 ling premises is inevitable. that
the ,,oment the gold product falls off
that is place must be supplied with
silvor-if the demands Of the people
for sufficient money is to be met.
But the party in power is opposed to
meet ng the demands of the people
for ST. ficient money. Silver was de-
mon .ized in order to increase the
purcha sing power Of the dollar. The
party in power is the dollar party.
The purchasing power Of the dollar
was not materially increased, simply
because of the discoveries Of gold,
which nearly supplied a sufficient
quantity Of money. The party in
power Gncluding the gold Democracy
was thwarted OF its object, but only
temporarily, because when the pro-
duct of gold materially falls off, the
purchasing power of the dollar will
&c right up. But l notice that the
dollar party is already impatient at
the delay. The news from the Klon-
dixie and Nome and the resumption OF
mining at johannesburg is disquiet-
ing to them, and Secretary of the
Treasury Gage, the pet of the Ma
tional Banks, has already gwen Out
limitations that Congress must come
to the rescue, and make the dollar Z

1t means that if a man owes $500

debtor will have to put 600 bushels o
more to buy $500 with which to pa,
his debt In view of the foregoin,
believe it would have been wiser 70
the Kansas City Platform to have ad
mitted the temporary relief OF the de

CONGRESSIONAL NOTES.

Gen. Joseph Wheeler has about aban-
doned his plan to resume his seat in the
house of representatives. He called on
Speaker Henderson on the 10th, and
during the course of long chat said
that the President had expressed his
desire to retire him as brigadier-gen-
eral of the regular establishment. Gen.
Wheeler asked the President to accept
his resignation some time ago, but the
President, after explaining his plans,
urged him to wait for Secretary Root
to return from Cuba. This was salts
factory to Gen. Wheeler. He said that
he had not drawn either pay for SER
vices or for travelling since last June.
He likes the idea of being retired on
the salary of rigadier-general and
will consent TO the arrangement If the
President can put it through the SEN
ate. OF course, this plan will involve
Gen. Wheeler's re signation from the
house, but he is willing to do this ana
then return to Alabama and ask his
constituents to re-electshim.
The text of the Puerto Rican bill
passed by the senate on the 10th is as

tions by the United States from Puerto
Rico since the evacuation of Puerto
Rico by the Spanish forces on Oct. Is,
1898, to Jan. 1, 1900, shall be placed at
the disposal of the President, to be
used for the government now existing,
and which may hereafter be established
in Puerto Rico and for public educa-
ton, public works and other govern
mental and public purposes therein,
and the said sum, or SO much as may
be necessary, is hereby appropriated
for the purposes herein specified out OF
any money in the treasury not other
wise appropriated.
The gold standard financial bill was
passed by the senate on the 18th, and

issue for at least six years, as the main
tenance of the gold standard is made a
matter of legislative dictation and is
not at the discretion of anybody, and
silver as live issue is shelved fol

Music aud Health.

Music. IL we are to believe ancient
historians, has produced some very
extraordinary effects. The tierceness
of Achilles was allayed by playing on
the harp; Damon, with the same in
strument, quieted wild and drunken
youths; and Asclepiades in a similar
manner brought back seditious multi
tudes to temper and reason. The Cory
bantes and effeminate priests of Cy-
belle were melted by music to cut their
own flesh. Pinar addressed his harp
thus: Thou quenchest the raging
thunder" Music is also reported 10
have been efficaclous in removing dan
perous diseases. Mirandola observes

Eight New War Vessels.

The house committee on naval affairs
reached definite and final decision on
the 18th as to the number of new war
ships to be authorized in the forth
coming naval appropriation bill, as fol-
lows: Two seagoing coast line battle
ships of about 10, 500 tons each, TO cost
approximately $4,000, 900 each; three
armored cruisers of the highest practi-
cal speed and most powerful armor and
armament, to cost approximately
81, 600, 900 each; three protected cruis-
ers, to cost about 81, 141 900 each. 1t
was determined not to provide any gun
boats, in view of the opinion expressed
by Secretary Long and Admiral Dewey
that Gen. Otis recent purchases of SER
viceable boats of this character met
present gunboat requirements. The
committee decided to authorize the sec
rotary of the navy to contract for armor
at price not exceeding S545 per ton.
This applies to the emergency armor
about Z 400 tons required for the bat
tleships Maine, Missouri and Ohio, now
in course of construction and not to the
vessels authorized but not begun, nor
to those contemplated by the present
