RELIEF FOR GALVESTON,
There IL Still Pressing Need for Public Helu
to Set the Sufferers On
Their Feet,

Galveston, Tex, Oct. 2.-John Sealy,
chairman of the finance committee, a
subcommittee of the Galveston CEN
trail relief committee, and custodian
of the Galveston relief fund.- has given
the following to the press:
Galveston, Oct 1.
"All subscriptions that have been
turned over to me up to and iRclud-
ing October 1, 1900, from all souEces,
amount to S1,043.63. This amount
includes all money received by me di.
rect, all received by Mayor w. c.
Jones, and also $3O9,5O0 RENTED TO
me by Gov Sayers out of subscrip-
tions made to him. The governor has
also ordered further remittance to
me of 100000, which should reach
me in the next few days, and he will
send me from time to time such ad.
ditional funds as he may receive. We
are now arranging in proper shape a
full itemized account of all receipts
and amounts expended which will be
duly published.
lSignedl JOHN SEALY,
Chairman Finance Committee"
Apropos of Mr.. Sealy's report the
News, to-day, says editorially:
"rhe pressing need of Galveston is
money with which to shelter more
than three thousand persons now
homeless, and to make habitable the
homes of many others. Some corre-
spondents have sent out statements
to the effect that millions of dollars
have been contributed for the relief
Of Galveston-ons published state
ment fixes the amount at S15,000,000.
These statements have led the public
the generous, liberal public-astray
and have tendency to check the i'm
pulse to give, because it seemed that
the requirements had been met. But
the real truth is that Galveston has,
up to date, received only 1881 ,043,63, a
sum but little more than sufficient to
bury the dead, remove the debris, &C.
complish the work of sanitation and
pay the expenses for food and cloth
ing which the relief committee had to
buy before supplies of food and cloth
ing began to arrive from the outside
world. And in this connection, with
a property loss of 100000, 900 Calves
ton is called upon to face problem Of
rehabilitation and to provide for the
housing Of more than eight thousand
homeless people,
Mature has been kind since the
storm; there has been no rainfall OF
consequence, the weather has been
pleasant and the winds have been
tempered. But these conditions can
not last, and much greater suffering
than has been endured up to this time
must inevitably ensue If provisions
are not made, and made quickly, to
house these victims OF the storm.
"Miss Clara Barton has told the
world Of the conditions existingin Gal
weston and has estimated that at least
S5,OO0,00O would be required to meet
the urgent necessities. The News sup.
plements her appeal with the state
ment that the contributions up to
date aggregate 1881, 0i3.63 and has
asked the press to spread this state
ment TO the world in order that the
false impressions made by unauthor-
lied and unfounded publications may
be counteracted so far rs it is posi-
Bile to do so.

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, Aug. 30--Lower cables
and let-up in export business de-
pressed wheat to-day. September clos
ing as01zc lower. September corn
dropped 1c, and September oats Ac.
Provisions closed a shade higher.
Wheat was active and marked by
considerable irregularity. September
opened asc down at TAX @745sc, and
sold Off to 741ac during early trading.
This was due to disappointment over
Liverpool cables, which showed a
small decrease in the face af tho adj
vance here yesterday. Holders unload
ed some of their stuff and found few
takers until half had been conceded.
At this juncture ST. Louis wired that
140, 900 bushels had been sold for ex-
port. This caused a shifting Of senti-
ment and September rallied to 7512c.
st. Louis new had reused hopes that
the sale there was but the forerunner
of other sales. These, however, We're
not forthcoming; it was even said that
foreigners were selling here and con-
seQuently speculative feeling suffered
another change and the market drop
ped, September retiring in disorder to
741ac. The close was rather weak,
September $b@1sc down at 745sc. New
York reported forty loads taken for
export. Seaboard clearances in wheat
and -four were equal to 22l,0 900 bushels.
AT primary points receipts were LOLA
900 bushels, compared with $4,000
bushels last year Minneapolis and
Duluth reported 343 cars, against BIT
last week, and $50 a year ago. Local
receipts were 402 cars, 20 of contract
grade.
Corn was strong and weak by turns.
Receipts, 207 cars, were over the es-
Ultimate, and there was some increase
in country offerings and cables were
easy, but the operations of one in
fiuential trader served as the main fac
tor in the manOuVers of the price. The
volume Of trade was not large, al
though at times trade was quite active.
There was considerable protit-taking
throughout the session, also the usual
amount of changing, October closing
at 1sc under September. September
sold between 41Ac and 40c. and closed
lie lower at 40c. Traders in oats we're
engaged for the most part in changing
September deals for October and De-
cember at 12c premium for the one
and nc for the more distant future.
September sold between 2134c and 21as.
October closed at 21B022c. Receipts
were $40 cars.
Provisions were moderately active,
closing firm. The opening was easy,
but good cash demand sprang up and
the feeling became stronger. Septem
Der pork sold between $11.05 and S10.95
and closed &c over yesterday at $1095;
September lard between S6.671a@6.70
and $6.621a, closing a shade up at
$6.65G6.. TX, and September ribs be-
tween $7071a and $500, with the close
at $70712.
Estimated receipts tomorrow:
Wheat, 440 cars; corn, $50 cars; oats,

JAPANESE AGGRESSION.

Has Seized the First Opportunity to
Take Possession of Annoy.
NEW YORK, August S0.-A dis
patch to the Herald from Hong Kong
says:
The disturbed situation in Annoy has
been created by Japan for the purposes
of aggression.
For years Japan has covetously re-
garded Annoy and her opportunity has
occurred. 1t was offered by a Japanese
priests house in the city being burn
ed.
The Chinese maintain lbhat the priest
saturated his house with kerosene
and then charged them with arson.
A Japanese cruiser landed men who
are now policing nulang Hen and
Annoy.
There has been no riot and no
trouble but the Japanese claim that
a large number of Japanese subjects
require protection. These subjects are
of the Chinese criminal classes who es-
cape from justice and are registered
in Formosa as Japanese subjects for
small fee.
