The trade in wheat was quiet to-day.
The market opened firm. Cables were

remained a stranger to the northwest.
Traders were disposed to stay on the
safe side until It developed whether
there was to be prolonged drouth IN
the northwest. July opened sc higher
at 673S46744c; touched 671sc and for
hours chung around that mark. During
the afternoon some messages from the
Dakotas and adjoining territory came
in and announced that 1t looked like
rain. Vague as this was It was sufii-
Client, combined with the corn weak
ness, to cause selling. AS there was
little demand July slumped sharply to
661kc. The close was easy, July &9hc

slow. New York reported twelve loads

factors. The market received some sup

Mr.. William II. Rullmann. age forty
four years. who for several years has

died suddenly last night at the Maryland
University Hospital, Baltimore, where he
had been taken yesterday morning on
the $40 train for treatment. Mr.. Rull-
mann has been complaining for several
days, and Drs. Wells and Walton were
called in. and ordered the patient to be
sent to the hospital, where he died last
night of blood poison. Mr.. ]. S. Hayes
and MIR. Rullmann's eldest daughter ac-
eompanied him to the Baltimore hospital.
No particulars have been received here
up to this time OF the death. whether or
not an operation was performed, but Mr..
Rullmann was very ill man when he
was removed to the hospital yesterday.
He leaves wife and six children. Il is
probable the remains will be inferred in
Baltimore since Mr.. RullmaDn's relatives
reside there. The distressed wife left
here this morning for the scene OF death.

The Climate is similar TO that of all
tropical countries. The people are of a
seml-barbarous class. that seem beyond
all hope OF civilization. They are dirty
IN the extreme. and thoroughly superstI-
tious. TO such an extent, l am afraid,
they can never be taught the customs Of
civilized people. hardly know with what
race we can class them. They seem to
be mixed breed, cross between Chi
nese, Japanese and South Sea Island
canlbals. Ii is no wonder they have
cholera, Boubouric plague and every
other known skin disease. The Filipinos
are no, unlike Japanese. but they are
much darker complexioned. The Island
seems TO be densely populated. There
are more children here to the square foot
than believe could be fourd anywhere
on earth. The means of travel here is
by the OK cart, or water buffalo wagons,
drawn by very diminutive horses. There
is but one railroad, a narrow guage, and
Manila can boast OF an apology for a
street Car line.
As you know. Filipinos are very treach-
erous, and to a great extent preiudiced
