ADVANCE IN WHEAT.
1t Causes Considerable Excitement in
Pacific Coast Markets.


San Francisco, Oct. 2S-The upward
movement in the price of wheat is caus-
ing considerable excitement in local
commercial circles and the market is
showing more activity than for many
months. The fact has developed that
early estimates of the crop of this state
were far from the actual facts. The re-
ports at first indicated yield of about
900, 900 tons Now that the harvest is
over the crop is believed to be only 6O0-
600 tons. or 2 trifie over The extent of
the wheat shortage is shown by the
statement that there will be between
twenty-five and thirty million grain
bags carried over this year. against
from ten to fifteen million in ordinary
seasons. M
The great drouth in Australia is turn
ing large quantity of wheat in that
direction which would otherwise be
shipped to Europe from this port
though the steamer Soloma has brought
news that the drouth was breaking and
better conditions prevailed in the South
sea continent. The British ships Claver-
don. Trafalgar. Gleneiova, Blyths wood
and Vimera have all been chartered to
load here for Australia and other
cargoes may be engaged before the end
of the week
Freights have gone down and ships
are nov easily secured at lis Cd per
ton. with the diseng2ged tonnage in port
on the increase.

TO OPEN NEW MARKETS.
feeting of Coffee Commission Is
Nearing an End.

New York, Oct. 2s.-This week probably
will see the end of the International Amer
lean coffee commissions sessions here. A
report of the committee on production has
been adopted unanimously.
The report of the committee on distribu-
ton also was submitted. It proposes the
imposition of heavy penalties for those
who are detected changing the brands on
coffee bags; inducing the various govern
ments to extend the use of coffee and to
open new markets; obtaining the aboli-
ton of domestic duties on coffee and per
hitting the sale of coffee at auction when
advisable in markets where this is not
practiced. AS purely domestic features of
those recommendations it was suggested.
first, to develop transportation facilities
so as to increase International commerce
in coffee; second, to adopt better means of
protection for coffee in bad condition;
third to establish regulations for the
classification and indelible marking of

THEY ARE TURNED DOWN.
BARRIERS Working Days Will Remain
the Same.

Extension of the working day of the
BARRIERS of Topeka for Monday, Tues
day, Thursday and Friday of each week
was turned down at a meeting of the
BARRIERS union held Monday evening, the
vote on the proposition to close at 5
instead of 7 o'clock being voted down
almost unanimously. Only four men,
bers favored the plan to keep open later.
The arguments advanced in support of
the scheme to close an hour later than d.
present were that during the winter, on
account of the number of parties and en-
tertainments. the shops would enjoy ad
ditional patronage, and that the meet
ing of the state legislature here would
also have the same effect. The ob1ec-
tons offered were that the workmen
would be obliged to lose considerable
time in going to and coming from sup-
per, instead of continuing on duty until
closing time. as is the rule now. This
with the general Discrimination of the
men to be compelled to work another
hour, was what defeated the proposition.
The opening hour for the winter will be
1850 a. m. the same as has been the
custom.

sisted that each heir be made to pay
$44, 600. So an arrangement has been
reached by which the heirs have paid
