rejected, 2 cars; no grade, 2 cars.
Ihe percentage of No. 1 northern
In the receipts is very low and grain
men attribute it to the fact that the
grain is light, having been shrunken

Washington, Aug. ia telegram
has been prepared at the navy de-
partment to go forward to the Iowa
Immediately upon her arrival at san
Francisco ordering her to prepare at
once to go to sea. When she advises
the department that she is ready an
order will follow for her to proceed to
Panama at once. The little cruiser
Ranger, which is at San Diego, was
ordered to sail during the day. 1t IS
not believed that there will be any
delay In her departure, as she has had
several days notice In which to pre-
pare for sea. She Is very slow, how
ever, making not more than six knots,
and as the distance to Panama Is
about 2,700 miles it would require al
most Is days for her to reach her des-
tination. The department, therefore,
decided to dispatch the Iowa as soon
as the battleship arrives at San Fran
cisco and can prepare for the trip.

London Weekly Papers Discuss the
South American Situation.
London, Aug. 1.-THE weekly pa
pers discuss the quarrel between Ven
ezuela and Colombia. The Spectator
thinks that American interference
will have grave results" and that it is
not impossible that the United States
will occupy Panama; but it can see
no reason why Great Britain should
oppose such course.
The Saturday Review, which takes
the usual strong anti-American tone,
says: "The time will come when the
outrageous Monroe doctrine will pro-
duce a deadlock between the Euro
pean and American governments.
Neither Germany, Spain, France nor
Great Britain will surrender legitimate
claims to expansion in South Amer
ica."

DEMAND JUSTICE FOR HARRISON.

The Association of the Spanish
American War Veterans in Indiana
adopted resolutions asking the con-
gressmen representing that state with
out regard to party to use their intiu-
ence to obtain a court of inquiry, so
promptly and repeatedly demanded by
Col. Russell Harrison, to correct the
in Jury and right the wrong done him
in his dismissal from the army. The
indianapolis News. referring to the
action of the association and speaking
of the resolutions adopted, says:
They we'll recite the fact tina. the
name of Harrison has been associated
with the military history of Indiana
from its formation as a territory.
They also recite the fact that Express
ident Harrison died believing that the
creditable military record of the Har-
rison family, made in every war that
the country has been engaged in
from the revolution on, was injured
by the manner and circumstances of
the dismissal of his son. The re-
cital of these facts is ample explana-
ton, if explanation is needed, why
this action be taken. Had it been
added that Col. Harrison was dis
missed in order to punish his father
for his failure to support without
qualification the political views of
the administration, common belief of
the people of Indiana and of the coun-
try would have been voiced. But
whatever the motive, the people
ought to make it plain that they do
not agree with Secretary Root that
this is "a closed incident They can
not afford to have any such incident
closed in this manner. They have q
right to demand that justice be done
fellow citizen. None can more ap-
propristely lead in such demand in
this case than the people of Indiana.
We hope, for the sake of fair play,
the rights of American citizenship
and simple justice in the recognition
of the equality of such rights, that
this movement will continue until it
is crowned with success
