when the long-expected plague"
arrived in New Orleans the city of
Santos was brought into an unenviable
prominence once more among the
stiles of the western hemisphere.
Santos has enjoyed the reputation
of being the danger spot of the Amer
leas
The memorable march westward of
that disease which is the revenge of the
Orient on the western world finally had
appeared before the sea gates of New
York-and it had taken passage by way
Of Santos
Some 300 miles down the Brazilian
coast from Rio Janeiro, where the
Brazilian Andes breaks into serrated
fringes of mountains, which remind
one of
'CragS, knobs and mounds, confusedly
hurled,
The fragments of an earlier world"
Is the white, cleaning city of Santos.
From there the major portion of the
world is supplied with coffee, and from
there come the plaques and the pestil-
ence which scare mankind.
Back of Santos is the great coffee
raising district of Brazil. Rio de ia
neiro used to be the place from which
the greatest amount of coffee was ship
ped. but of late years Santos has given
the Brazilian capital hard run. Sac
Paulo has stolen from Minas the palm
of the coffee bearing territory. Santos
was a healthy city before commerce
found 1t. The town woke up one morn
ing to find itself great commercial

The navy has hitherto been COM
monty regarded as the Junior branch
of the nations militant service, subor-
dinate In rank to the army. But now
it becomes the senior branch, because
its head is an admiral, whose rank 10
technically two grades higher than
that of a major-general, who is now
the highest officer in the army. That
is one of the consequences of war in
which the navy had greater opportuni'
ties of distinction than the army.

In piping times of peace the jackies
of the navy often find it hard work to
amuse themselves during their idle

when a man-of-war happens to be in
quarantine, which, of course. usually
happens in southern waters. When
such is the case, the sailor boys do
their best to amuse themselves with
swimming races. water polo matches

The Chippewa outbreak in Mime

misconduct of federal officials Deputy
marshals had been in the habit of
making wholesale arrests of Indians,
either as witnesses or offenders, solely
for the fees which would accrue 10
them. The estirlators appointed to
appraise the Chippewas' timber had
made heavy charges for their work.
which was worthless and had to be
done over second time and third

from timber depredations. and from
the sale of their lands at prices much
below their real value. The distrust
and evaporation oceasioned by these
wrongs led them to armed resistance

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, July 12.-Wheat dropped
z1sc for the September option to-day.
Reported Improvement to the spring
wheat crop throughout the northwest
and unresponsiye cables gave the bears
their innings. Corn and oats ruled
strong and closed practically unchang-
ed,u Provisions were lifeless and weak.
Pork closed at decline of 1O@12hc;
lard lost sc and ribs sc.
Wheat opened weak, September 1A0
15sc lower at SGA 0s1ssc. Indifferent
cables and the astonishing claim by
the Price Current that the government
figures on the spring crop were ridicu-
lousy low caused the change in senti-
ment. Longs became discouraged and
began to unload. Under this pressure
the market continued on the down
grade until September reached S0$4 c.
At this point the decided strength in
corn began to be felt in the wheat pit
and produced a more confident feel
ing. Several shorts became nervous
and commenced covering, forcing the
price up steadily to S1%0S2c. The
upturn met generous profit-taking AMI
the market soon began to sag again.
Claims from the northwest of "A Gecid-
ed Improvement to the spring crop as
a result of recent rains and that the
three States would possibly yield
125,000,000 bushels, against previous
expectations of $4,000, 600 bushels, add
ed to the selling movement and Sep
tember declined gradually to S0Ac.

There was feeble rally during the
last hour on indications of large de-
crease in the visible, but the advance
was only temporary and the market
closed weak within a fraction of the
days range. Gables were lower, not
withstanding sharp advance here
yesterday. The Price Current esti-
mated the wheat crop at 550,O00,000
bushels. Chicago receipts were 60
cars, six OF contract grade. Minneapo-
lis and Duluth got 1853 car loads, COM
pared with ATS for the same day last
year. Western primary receipts were
light $4,000 bushels, against 1900
bushels last year.
