The southwest wired in another COL
umn to its history OF recent liberal
rains, complaints that more dampness
than was good was threatened. In
addition Illinois said some more uncom-
pllmentary things about the Hessian
fly. These tldings were enough to
worry shorts, and under pressure Of
covering the price of July was forced
up to 67lkc. The corn weakness later
made itself felt, and many OF the early
purchases were thrown on the market
again, July selling of to &c. The
close was steady at 67q671sc, bc un-
der yesterday. Trade throughout the
session was quiet. The cash demand
was slack, New York reporting only
twelve loads taken for export. Sea-
board clearances In wheat and flour
we're equal to 27zDOO bushels. Primary
receipts were $4,000 bushels. compared
with S65,OOO bushels last year. Minne-
apolis and Duluth reported 275 cars,
against 424 cars last week. and 1888 cars
a year ago. Local receipts were 26
cars. two OF which were contract
grade.
Corn was quiet for an hour but weak
after that. The weakness was due to
pressure Of long corn. There were
complaints of too much rain in the
west, and seeding was reported de-
layed in Iowa. The opening was un-
changed, and the market developed
strength on the rains during the first
hour, but lost 1t for the cause afore-
mentioned. July sold between SSlAc
and 375sc, closing heavy at A9%c down
at CSC. Receipts here were 12S cars.
Oats were steady, but dull and unin-
terestlng. The dry weather in the
northwest was a sustaining influence.
July sold between 22tsc and 22i4c, and
closed n shade lower at 29229sc. Re-
celpts here were 1G9 cars.
Provisions were quiet, but fairly
steady. The opening was u tritle
lower, because OF liberal hog receipts.
There was n moderate-very moderate
demand for lard and ribs. July pork
sold between Sl1 S21k and 81 Is. and
closed 2lkc down at $l1 T71a; July lard

Markets.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-The stock
market maintained fairly good spec
ulatlve tone to-day, in spite Of the
continued discouragement reported by
the mercantile agencies over the course
of commodity prices. Railroad stocks
generally are higher on the day to the
extent of a fraction and some of the
specialties show larger changes, Sugar
was the leader of the market without
any news to account for its strength.
beyond the suggestive parallel that
might be drawn between its case ana
that Of the New York gas companies,
whose costly conflict seems to be end
ed With the profitable period OF the
year approaching in the Sugar trade, 1t
is natural to suppose that the Incentive
to settling n contest that takes away
the profits OF the business is augment
ed. Consolidated has reflected the
pressure of speculative realizing, and,
the Tobacco stocks showed renewed
signs of weakness. The local traction
stocks continued strong. The market
was largely one of specialties. There
was some demand for the Vanderbilt
stocks, apparently on the score of the
reported return from Europe of Will
lam X. Vanderbilt which was denied
after the close. Union Pacific gained n
large fraction. Burlington and Norfolk
& Western halted in the advance which
was the feature Of yesterdays market,
while traders took their profits. The
weekly statement Of railroad earnings,
so far as received. were favorable. The
bank statement was favorable In the
doubtful item of loans. which showed a
very small increase thus relieving ap-
prehensions that banking resources
might be encroached upon faster than
they were replenlshad The item of
cash increase showed a slightly larger
movement from the interior than had
been estimated.
The bond market showed n decided
improvement, both in the volume of
the demand and the prices brought
The sharp advance In government
bonds was, OF course, In response TO
the announcement from Washington OF
the calling of the extended per cents.
Prices of railroad stocks have partly
recovered this week the losses incurred
last week. In the industrial depart
ment of the stock list, on the contrary,
there have been some formidable in
roads upon prices. Business has been
largely in professional hands and the
volume of dealings has been less than
half a million shares a day on an aver
age. A large part Of the demand was
evidently from the bears, who had over
sold the market in the previous decline.
The fact that Investment buying of
bonds has been dull, in spite OF low
rates for money, has been discourage
ing factor in the stock market.

Der of colored people scattered through
the crowds at all the stopping places.
Mr.. Bryan evidently noted their pre-
sence and took occasion to address por-
tions of his speeches especially to them
appealing to them to do Justice by the
Filipinos as they would have justice
done by themselves. The first point at
which he touched upon this question
was at St. Adams. There he said:
SUBMITTED TO REPUBLICANS.
"When we complain that the Repub-
licans are applying in the Philippinc
islands doctrine that deprive people of
the right to govern themselves the ar
gument that Republican makes is
that some of the Southern States have
adopted amendments requiring an ed
vocational qualification for voting. 7
wish to submit this question to the
Republicans: Do they approve of what
is being done in the South. or do they
oppose ii? II they oppose it, why do
they propose worse things in Porto
Rico and in the Philippine islands than
have been proposed in the South? Read
the qualifications adopted by your own
Administration for voting in Porto
Rico and you will find that they have
an educational qualification there that

(By Telegraph to virginian-Pilot.)
Hazleton. Pa, Oct. 22.-President
Mitchell. in an interview tonight,
practically admitted that the anthrh-
cite coal miners strike would end as
soon as all the operators posted a no.
lice guaranteeing the payment of a 10
per cent. advance in wages until April
1. President Mitchell said:
Inc prospect of an early settlement
OF the coal strike is becoming brighter.
Some OF the operators have not yet
posted notices signifying their willing
ness to fall in line either with the
Reading Company or with the proposi-
ton made by the Lehish Valley Com
pany In the Hazleton region. Ii all of
tnein notify their employees by posting
notlces or otherwise that an actual adj
vance OF 10 per cent. will be paid each
mine employee and guarantee its con-
.inuance until April L, together with
,he abolition of the sliding scale, be-
leNc that the terms would he accepted
by the mine workers. The reduction In
powder from S2.75 to 81 so has confessed
the minds of the operators. but some
OF the operators have so fully explained
now contract miners would receive the
tuli advance of 10 per cent. as we'll as
an other employees. that 1 believe that
this obstacle can be overcome
THE OUTLOOK NOT BRIGHT
Although, us President Mitchell saws
the outlook for an carly settlement of
the strike is bright, it is difficult to
MAKE prediction as to when the end
VIII come. Some of the coal GONNA MICS
are showing disposition not to issue
Il second notice guaranteeing the nav
mcnt of the 10 per cent. Increase in
wages until April
, Nmong these are the Delaware.
LackaSanna and Western and the DeI,
aware and Hudson. the officials of
whlch companies are reported to have
u o TO issue supplemental notice.
IN, = ne lapor leaders however, hope that
the companies will in some way make
known that they will guarantee the
payment of the Increase until April l.
PRESIDENT Mitchell appeared quite
cheerful tonight when he made the an
nouncement as above. and his manner
lndlcated that the time is near at hand
When all the anthracite miners now on
strike shall return to the mines. AS
soon as all the notices guaranteeing
the payment of the advance until April
are posted. President Mitchell will
call a meeting of the National Execu-
tive Board, at which it is believed the
strike will be declared off.
n GREAT PARADE.
The largest labor demonstration ever
held in this city took place to-day when
nearly seven thousand miners paraded
the streets. In carriages at their head
rode President Mitchell, who received
an enthusiastic ovation all along the
line of march.
President Mitchell reviewed the pa
rade at the end of the route, after
which mass meeting was held, at
which President Mitchell was the prin-
cipal speaker. lie said the strike was
in such peculiar position that 1t was
hard to outline just what the result
would be. He believed the time was
not far distant. however. when every
mine would he in operation and that
the men now had practically won the
strike.
