Late TOrrentiaI Storms

Wheat Crop
IT'S EFFECT ON LOCAL MARKT.T
A Local Dealer says an Increase in

There has been some apprehension
felt in Brunswick over the discoura-
aging reports from the wheat fields Of
the west, and the, fear that the dam
age there would cause the price Of

have complained of the increased

The rains during the past few weeks
the wheat growers claim. have cost
tAe northwest millions of dollars.
1he spring wheat has been lowered
ia quality all through. Millions of
bushels of wheat that would ordinar-
ily have graded high, have been so
reduced in quality to make a differ

the selling price Millions more are
Iaduced from fine milling wheat to
little better than feed Actual losses
sare heavy in Quantity and the quality
loss is general Had not the weather
changed at once for the better the
losses might have run to calamity
propositions and the Minneapolis
mills, in the matter of raw materials,
would have been facing a crisis.
When, asked what effect the storm
might have on prices here a leading
grocer, familiar with the eircumstan-
eee, said an increase in flour might
be expected If the damage in the west
SHOULD prove as disastrous to the
wheat crop as at drst reported. He
doubted that, however. as very of

as at first anticipated Whether -four

Strategic Stronghold Desirable.
'In regard to certain strategic positions
to be occupied by the United States mill
tary and naval forces, 1 am still of the
same opinion that 1 entertained as soon
as the news of the naval victory at Ma
Mia had been received, although no ac-
ton has yet been taken, except to make
certain surveys and plans, and the Philip
pine Islands are as defenseless today as
they were five years ago. l therefore re-
new practically the recommends ton that
1 made at that time, that at least one
strategic position be fortified beyond the
possibility of capture by any foreign fleet
or fleets. There should certainly be some
point points fortified that would afford
a refuge for our naval commercial ships.
The harbors Of Manila, Subig bay, Cebu
and Iloilo have been selected by the engi-
neers as suitable positions. fair estimate
of the cost of emplacements, high-power
guns, mortars and rapid-ire guns, maya
zines and a sufficient amount of ammuni-
ton at these places would not be less than
200O0,OO0.
''Subig bay is one of the strongest nat
ural positions that I have ever seen. 1t
is completely land-locked, and is capable
of being made impregnable. land force
of 10000 men ought to hold 1t against ten
times that number. This harbor has plenty
of deep water and affords a good anchor
age. The climate is very favorable, and
the topography most suitable for land de-
Tense. 1t is in every way one of the most
important positions for military and naval
purposes in the archipelago. Dockyards,
machine shops, foundries. coaling facilities
arsenals and all appliances for the con-
struction and repair of naval or CONNER
cial vessels could be provided at that po-
siti9n."
